I’m actually kind of curious to see what the fan editors might end up doing with this film. Unlike TFA this film is a lot easier to reconcile with the more old school fans who prefer Legends material. (F.ex. since there was no caption identifying Vader’s castle as being on Mustafar, I imagine someone could easily just add “Vjun” or “Bast Castle” to it, etc.)
I’m still a bit confused over why Mustafar was never identified by a caption though. Did they think that too many people might not know the name? Or were they simply trying to keep the PT references to a minimum?
I was wondering if it had anything to do with it being an oversight in Post Production. I would imagine Gilroy added those name cards because I don’t think it’s Gareth Edwards style to add stuff like that. That is only a guess mind.
But you can see Gareth Edwards Distinct style of film making where he put’s people in front of big special effects shots and alike to give them a sense of scale. Certain shot’s don’t follow his style either but that could be John KNoll.
It’s no Bad thing but apparently the novel the scenes at the beginning are in a different order being the Prologue (Flashback to Lah’mu) then not Back to Jyn but to Cassian then Bodhi Rook and then we get back to Jyn and stay with her until broken out of the Jail.
So Perhaps a better Order of events?
Neither was Lah’mu labeled by name either by the way…
