Did you notice that each major character got the death they deserved?
This is to all the people who say R1 is just nostalgia-exploitation and “ayteeaytees”.
You mean they deserved to die? I don’t follow you. Characters that actually feel alive and then die in emotional and truly dramatic ways would have been better. To me they were stock archetypes who weren’t developed and then just got killed off to avoid sequel inconsistencies.
Rogue One characters didn’t feel alive? Jyn is WAY better than rey from the farce awakens for instance. Jyn has vulnerabilities and flaws that she overcomes for a cause much, much greater than herself while rey is just a boringly perfect robot that can do no wrong, rey is about as flat as a pancake as a one-dimensional character can get.
