Did anyone else notice just how much smaller the Lucasfilm logo and “a long time ago…” text was at the beginning of Rogue One compared to the saga films?
I seem to recall someone mentioning noticing this back in December.
The movie was shot on a 65mm-sized digital camera, and - just to make it even bigger - with the same vintage 1.25x anamorphic lenses used on Hateful Eight.
Maybe Edwards knowingly shrunk the logo and title card intentionally in order to help convey and set up the “bigness” of the cinematography.
