    I’d even go further, people have seriously just forgotten the first 2/3rds of Rogue One. The characters are stiff and boring, the plot is meaningless because you know nobody survives, and the few action sequences before the big battle are nothing to right home about.

    Once you get to the big battle, it’s bombastic and exciting, and you even get a little tension from “but how exactly do all these people die?” I don’t even think it’s just nostalgia talking, the battle really was executed incredibly well. It’s like ~45 minutes of the greatest sci-fi war porn ever made. It’s so high quality that it makes you forget the other hour and a half of your life that the movie wastes on Jyn Erso’s angst.
