Rogue One-Personally, I loved it more than TFA. As good as TFA was, it felt too much like a rehash of ANH and ESB. This one had a storyline I've wanted to see since AoTC came out. I felt the space battle was much tighter, Vader was awesome, and over all, it felt more connected to the other films, and even the TV shows. It also added huge layers to the series as a whole. More importantly I cared about the characters. SO much so that by the end, I was shocked. I was like "NO! You can't do that! I like those characters!"
Carrie Fisher... Heartbreaking. Even more so when her mom dies a day later. Back when I was a kid, my mom first showed me Singing in the Rains he got my attention by pointing out that Debbie Reynolds was Carrie Fisher's mom. It's a huge loss.
Some have compared her death to Heath Ledger after the Dark Knight, but well, the difference is Ledger was playing a Batman villain. Batman ahs a lot of bad guys you can easily feature with out mention of the Joker. General Leia however...she's the leader of the Resistance, the sister of Luke, the mother of Kylo Ren, and is supposed have a huge role in IX. If I were LucasFilm I would consider switching the release dates for IX and the third Star Wars Anthology film ( say either a Kenobi movie or maybe a movie about Ahsoka Tano, Captain Rex and the Siege of Mandalore and their experience during Order 66), that way the cast and crew not only have more time to grieve but the writers can work out this major change to the story.
On a lighter note, this Christmas, my family got the memo to "Go Rogue" and gave me all Star Wars presents. Mom and dad got me three Star Wars Christmas T-shirts, Star Wars Christmas socks, and an action figure of Chirrut Imwe, my sister and her boyfriend got me the Rogue One Catalyst Novel and the Rogue One soundtrack and an action figure of Kaytoo, and my other sister, brother-in-law, and niece got me on of those nice collectors figure packs from the Disney Store for "Star Wars Rogue One."
