    You know, I've been wondering: maybe it IS Vader and he fails to stop Jyn from beaming the plans, due to a malfunction in the TIE Fighter (which Jyn herself might have caused earlier in the film when she had gone undercover), which would explain:

    1. Vader's mood in the beginning of ANH. If you see him in his first scenes, he's genuinely pissed. Personally failing to stop the Rebel from beaming the plans would make sense: he was outsmarted and he's angry about it.
    2. Why Vader has a different TIE Fighter. Yes, he's Palpatine's enforcer and stuff, but his TIE Fighter failing would make sense that he would demand another, safer and better model.

    I thought it was cool the way Chirrut walked calmly past the stormtroopers, you can tell he was itching for a fight.

    I just watched the teaser and the trailer again. Primarily, It just looks to me like they are selling the drama and the conflict. Perhaps the aliens are there but just not in the trailer. One thing to keep in mind is Disney is trying to use practical effects - after the CGI backlash of TPS. We saw several aliens in the celebration footage. Even though they are using practical effects for the aliens, could it be that those shots still need a lot more rendering time? Or could those scenes with aliens have potential spoilers? We know how much Disney?LF like their secrecy(a very good thing IMO). And this leads me to my next thought ...

    I remember reading(I think shortly after TFA released) that a supposedly reliable source said that most of the same bounty hunters from ESB are going to be featured in RO. The story was that either Tarkin or Vader will hire them to stop the RO team(from getting the plans?, or from getting away with the plans? - not sure). But lately I see no talk about that. It was supposedly to include Fett and Cad Bane.

    Is this all invalidated hearsay?

    I had read and heard the very same thing about the Bounty Hunters yet just as you I'm wondering if those were just rumors. The word around was that all of the BHs from TESB plus Cad Bane were going to be in the movie yet as time goes by I really am starting to doubt it more and more. Sure I have to admit that it would really blow my mind to se Bossk, Zuckuss and the others in action but sadly I won't hold my breath as I really don't want to be disappointed.

    As far as I remember – those bounty hunters would be the original team recruited to help steal the plans of the DS in a draft version, but that was abandoned later in favor of the rebel strike team.

    That was just a fan rumor. Funny bountyhunters, work in a team all the way till ESB, that would have caused a outcry because of the small galaxy syndrome.

    As much as it pains me to say this, I'm still not sold on the new characters. By far my favorite character was... Darth Vader. And I'm not sure why, but Jyn Erso, Cassian, even K2-SO don't have me "hooked" the same way Rey, Finn, and Bb-8 had me hooked from the teaser. Perhaps it's because the trailers still haven't shown us a whole lot about their personality. Or maybe their costumes are too plain... I'm not sure. If anybody here can relate to what I"m saying, please post a follow-up comment.

    Hi Cantina forum. My first post here.

    I think the latest Rogue One trailer is okay but I'm not completely sold on the movie yet. I will wait to judge anything in full till i have seen the movie in December.

    First post here! I think this film looks really great. I love that it beats more like a war film and it looks like it will have the appropriate gritty, grounded feel that I have been waiting for in a Star Wars movie for a while. Definitely going to be in the theater in December!

    I think you have to withhold judgement on the characters until you see them in more than 2 second clips.

    But this is a real concern; I don't think there's any question that it's the most important aspect of the movie. There won't be any drama in finding out if the rebels manage to steal the plans - we all know they will succeed. The tension will have to be based on whether or not the characters survive the mission, and so the whole movie hinges on whether or not the audience cares about those characters.

    And if I remember how it played out in Ep 4, doesn't Mothma say that many of the team sent after the plans die in the process?

    Mon Mothma wasn't in EPIV, you refer to the scene in EPVI. => "Many Bothans died to bring us this information.", second Death Star.
