Yeah, we're working with Lucasfilm on promoting it too. Same level as Godzilla but as a side thing for TK. If that makes any sense.

That's good to hear. nice to know we're getting more SW material to add to the lore.

This lightsaber business is one of the lamest and nitpickiest complaints I've ever heard against a film.

That does sound pretty awesome. Anyway, what could Rogue One possibly be about?

I'm presuming that with Edwards at the helm, he'd make it cut away just before a lightsaber fight begins.

The spin offs would most likely veen about non jedi, I doubt we seen more than two lightsaber duels at max across the three spinnoffs.

I'm interested in all things Star Wars. I'm one of the people who enjoyed the prequels as much as the original trilogy.

I really have no interest. I am not a fan of his first two films. I still hold hope he will prove me wrong.

I'm definitely interested in seeing how Edwards's style will translate into the Star Wars franchise. Actually, Gareth Edwards's name attachment is probably still the most intriguing bit of Star Wars news so far.
