Rogue One did entertain me, and among many other things, it was able to transport me into the aesthetics of a universe I felt the same as the one I remember from when as a kid. That’s all I could ask from these movies, and that’s were TFA failed to me.
I agree with both of those points. Rogue One felt just like Star Wars77 to me. Even more so after the second viewing. While I really like the first half of The Force Awakens, it didn’t make me feel the same as I did back in 1977. Similar and familiar, but not like home.
