Things that were incredible* about Rogue One
* “incredible” doesn’t mean it wasn’t devastating
the cast, obviously — I mean, where even to begin, they were incredible, their performances were superb, the characters were so engaging
the relationship between Chirrut Îmwe and Baze Malbus, which was so immensely loving
Bodhi diving into the rebellion because it’s never too late to do the right thing
the old star wars aesthetic and costume design (nostalgia AND originality)
every death (every life) mattered, on both sides
a 2016 pop culture statement about fighting fascism — about fighting fascism
Cassian’s been fighting since he was six — this work takes a LONG time
the arrival of the rebel fleet
fighting on the beaches calling back to D-Day (i.e. fighting nazism)
Cassian telling Jyn (the only white team-member) that she doesn’t get to choose when she has to care and when she has to fight (thanks to @bisexualstevenrogers for articulating this)
Mon Mothma’s little smile when she realizes what Cassian, Jyn, and the others have done
Bail Organa going back to Alderaan
was that Biggs Darklighter!? (don’t answer that, I’m just going to assume that it was)
Krennick watching his own side cut their losses on him
Cassian and Jyn on the beach
the rebels passing the computer disk from hand to hand down the hallway (!!!)
