While some fans of “Star Wars” have been quite critical towards the latest installment in the franchise, claiming that it was subpar and that the films should have been left alone after the sixth one, many were actually impressed with what the film had to offer, and it even managed to draw in plenty of new fans to the series. In fact, looking at various discussion boards online, it’s pretty clear that the disappointed fans were actually a minority.
And now, a fresh new trailer for “Rogue One” has given us quite the exciting new look at the newest installment in the epic galactic saga, and it’s been enjoying strong responses from fans. It looks like things are getting better and better for dedicated “Star Wars” fans, and those who want to see even more dramatic storylines will be particularly pleased.
The new film will take a small detour in focus, and will show the story of a rebel group who’re going after the very blueprints for the Death Star itself. Obviously this is no small task, and the implications of their success are actually quite significant, but what’s more important is that the story will have a clear connection to the bigger picture, instead of being a standalone unit as some fans were worried.
Before more details were announced about “Rogue One”, there were some claims that the new film is going to be a more isolated story, as that was allegedly the kind of direction that the producers were interested in exploring.
Clearly this is not the case, and the current developments could actually be a fantastic setup for the next film, where this could all come together in one grand way. That would also be a perfectly fitting development for the “Star Wars” franchise, after all, and many fans would probably find it a great move by the producers.
However, some fans are also worried that the change of direction could have some rather negative implications for the new film. More specifically, it could mean that we might have to wait a little longer to see the conclusion of some cliffhangers that were left in the last one, something which would definitely annoy many followers.
In fact, some have strong expectations that the new film is going to immediately resolve some of those lingering storylines and push everything forward more actively. Hardly anyone wants to see “Star Wars” become a soap opera, after all.
The trailer gave plenty of details for fans to dig into, and they’ve been having a great time analyzing it practically frame by frame – as can be expected. Most seem optimistic for “Rogue One”, and some are also hungry for more trailers and information about the new film. Considering that there are about two months left before its release, it’s very likely that we’re going to get some extra teasers over the next few weeks.
After all, the producers of “Star Wars: Rogue One” know their audience and they wouldn’t want to miss out on a golden opportunity to get everyone even more hyped up.
Everyone is talking about the new film right now, so hopefully it will live up to the expectations that the trailer set. After all, it’s not hard to mess up a release as critical as this one, especially with that much attention focused on it, and the pressure on the producers could possibly lead to some mistakes as well.
