Rogue One… or how I realised how to stop worrying and watch TFA. This is a cold, grey movie. I overlooked certain flaws (while admitting it’s lacking character development) on the first viewing, but seeing it again today one thing crept up on me. It’s kind of a dull slog up the end when they throw in a big spectacle. Tarkin is horrible. His head is even the wrong shape never mind the bad CGI or the bad voice acting. Leia is horrible, especially the way her lips move on her teeth when she says “hope” which is clearly not a new piece of audio. I want to like this movie, really. But it’s not happening, despite my lukewarm first impression which was more positive than not. The things that I liked before just didn’t provide the excitement another time around, and it doesn’t hold up. Sorry for the weird complaining but I just wanted to get it out of my system.
