    Rogue One was merely Star Wars porn.

    Gave us a lot of shiny things, with almost no substance. (I still love watching that third act though)

    I liked TLJ better, though it has problems. I suppose I like Rogue One, but I don't really like the way it fits with ANH.

    Well, for me the movie ends once the base on Scarif blows up and Jyn and Cassian die in each others arms. Then the scene with Vader, Tantive IV and Leia is just there to bridge the end of Rogue One with the start of A New Hope.

    I really liked them both. Jyn and Cassian and great characters and I really liked them. Krennic was okay. Not much else I have to say about that. The Battle on Scarif was great, Vaders rage moment was awesome, as well as Vaders castle, and they also didn't have bad and overused comedy like another movie I might know. On the other hand TLJ has the throne room fight the hyperspace scene, battle on crait, a pretty okay storyline, the canto bight thing was a bit stupid but it is what it is. Honestly I really like both but I think TLJ is a bit better.

    R1 was a pretty lame movie; i'm not even going to try and soften that up.

    TLJ was good, but i've only seen it once. i really enjoyed it, though.

    For me, Rogue One jumps in as my number 2 favourite Star Wars film, after Empire.
    I enjoyed TFA but was pretty non-plussed by TLJ to be honest. Too many things grated with me in that movie. I didn't hate it, it had some really great scenes; I loved the Rey/Kylo dynamic and seeing Yoda back on the big screen was epic. I couldn't get what happened to Luke, the whole contemplating murdering a young Ben Solo for example, wtf. The over the top forced humour was a bit too much also.

    Lol godbless the Internet.

    Although I guess 3 weeks is a reasonable enough amount of time to forget that you posted the same thing in the same thread.

    Rogue One was SW eye candy with weak, forgettable characters. I have little motivation to watch that movie regularly. TLJ was immensely more interesting.

    RO is good, and the third act is notable. TLJ is badly written.

    Both equally.

    RO might be a bit better film, but TLJ did some amazing Star Warsian things that wasn't just wookieepedia stuff.

    I would rather watch two and a half hours worth of QVC or The Jeremy Kyle Show than watch TLJ. (I despise both)
    Rogue One was not great, but much better than TLJ, which was awful.
