Left is the never before seen Shadow Trooper, on the right is likely a Rebel helmet.

Edit: Actually this may be the Shadow Trooper helmet

Is it just me or does the plot and point of this whole movie seem irrelevant. Now that we know the death star was built, destroyed, rebuilt, destroyed again, and then rebuilt 10 times bigger and still destroyed.

I mean like in WW2 movies we knew no matter all the bad things that happened it was worth it because we ultimately won.

But the empire has a damn near perfect track record of shytting on the Rebels every movie. In TFA The Resistance was still getting shyt on and the only reason they had a chance we because of Chewbacca and his explosives. They may have blown up StarKiller Base but the damage was already done.

These were supposed to be the plans that gave the rebels the upper hand but we know eventually they keep getting shyt on by the imps.

I hope there is alot of Vader in this movie. He's the reason why they got the plans to begin with.

In the teaser they better not show Vader but have his breathing drop in at the end



shyt would be

Oddly enough I'm more excited about the additional material it'll bring for future novels and comics

 

[Czerka]

I'd be more OK with a nostalgia cash grab like this if it wasn't for how unoriginal TFA was.

Oh well, I'll watch it

This isn't only for the brave souls who captured the first Death Star plans, but for the many Bothans who died to bring us the information. We have to honor this story in honor to respect their story too
