Other than the eyes being a different color and Whitaker's skin being a bit darker than Saw's in TCW, I think it works. Saw was mentioned in Rebels and Bloodline so it's nice to actually see him during his time in the Galactic Civil War. Plus, I'm just happy a character that originated in animation is now in the movies! I think he'll be taken down by Vader. It would be sort of ironic since him and Anakin fought alongside each other on Onderon during TCW.

Forest Whitaker's Saw Gerrera! I liked him in TCW, that's cool and he's been mentioned in Rebels a lot.... Maybe that jungle (tropical) planet where the plans are on is Onderon.

Hmm, he looks nothing like Saw... but I'm fine with this... this means they might have other TCW characters to appear in future movies too... or maybe even in this one...

Like Ezra and the gang Lol but honestly if they're putting in TCW characters they will likely put in rebels ones too. Actually I think they could've made Forest's character Kanan

"more than two decades have passed since the events of Revenge of the Sith" Did they change the timeline or is this just wrong?

"more than two decades have passed since the events of Revenge of the Sith" Did they change the timeline or is this just wrong? What is wrong? That is correct, there's about a 20 year gap between ROTS and ANH. This movie takes places almost right before ANH.

But it says MORE than two decades, while in the previous timelines ROTS was 19 years before ANH, which is less...

Luke and Leia can fit the age of 19-22ish anyways.

That website just screwed up. It's 19 years after; they aren't changing any part of the timeline and I'm sure they never will.

They got the Death Star shot with Tarkin as well in it... Except it's the new guy.
I think he is the Grand Admiral (Before Thrawn) so he likely had control over the Death Star then he dies and Tarkin takes over.

I thought the geonosians designed the Death Star... But Mads Mikkelsen plays the architect.. Actor is 50 unless in the movie they make him older he'd be around his late 20s when they probably started to design the Death Star... That's very young

The Death Star's construction began over Geonosis, but apparently it leaves to a new location (probably the beach planet in Rogue One) at the end of the Tarkin novel.

Also, new info at Celebration says that Krennic is the Director of the Advanced Weapon Research part of the Empire. So I don't think he's a Grand Admiral.

So no trailer? That sucks... Story reel thing was cool but I think I would've liked an actual trailer more.

Nvm they're showing it right now some guy's doing a live stream but I'll wait until it's officially released cause the dude filming is terrible...
Idk why some site said there wouldn't be one..

Well that was sort of anticlimactic... the BTS Video was great, but we should have gotten a trailer (and I would have much preferred one).

LOL, the funniest part of the Rogue One panel was that one of the actors accidentally revealed the death of a character...

I think it's referring to Jyn just sort of being a rogue-like character... and it's also a catchy title and is similar to the starfighter callsigns used by pilots in other films.

I think the last scene should have the Tantive IV in it. I wonder if they would show Leia..

Only space flight capable things they had where solar sailers

But yeah not the same as the Death Star and you're right they're not very advanced..
