Slightly disappointed, just confirmed by Ian McDiarmid who always plays him, that no Emperor in this one. I was hoping for at least a hologram appearance. Of course McDiarmid may be lieing, just like Benedict Cumberbatch did with Khan & the Star Trek movie.
Ah well, at least there's Vader & although not 100% confirmed, should be Governor Tarkin

Yeah kow what you mean
I just think a lot of the backstory wasn't fleshed out when ANH was filmed. Will be really pissed off if we don't get the Governor Tarkin appearance (via CG) that was mooted!
Never understood the appeal of all the do gooders like Skywalker & Yoda LOL. Bloody liberals!! And what a scruffy lot they were too!

I think truly one of the best stories in Star Wars literature is from the game Knights of the Old Republic, if you've never played it or heard of it look it up. Straddles both the dark and the light quite well! |

The final trailer
Seeing as Im a massive fan of The Empire itself, this definitely could end up my personal favourite
just seeing the Death Star again is incredible but the real money shot is around 2 mins 5 secs
You can keep all your Marvels, this is where its at....

More derivative CGI tedious drivel from Holywood.
They just love milking these series screwing every last dollar from the franchise.
That last Star Wars film was just a remake of the first one. A waste of time - but not money. Star Wars, like James Bond, is a massive cash cow for the studios.

Edited here into one long trailer; very well done
Certainly looks everything The Force Awakens wasn't!

Is this film going back in time before the first original star wars film? yes the original Star Wars film, a new hope, had the scene where the death star plans are revealed to the council of rebels & someone says many people died to obtain these plans. Rogue 1 I think is using that plot |

Rogue 1 I think is using that plot Correct. Something I read yesterday said that the plot of the film runs right up to the point where the original Star Wars story (episode IV) begins. Have to admit I'm looking forward to it a bit more than I was until recently. They're supposed to be playing down The Force/Jedi/Sith mythology a bit and upping the darkness of the whole time - people losing faith, the empire on the rise and getting ready to stamp out any signs of resistance with their W.O.M.D. - It's "a heist movie set in a warzone" effectively. |

It will be great to see the empire at its most powerful. Can't wait to see the death star again on a big screen with today's CG fx. Vader is supposed to be at his harshest, before he started all that redemption nonsense. Expecting to see one or two force chokes. My only disappointment is we aren't getting my favourite character, Emperor Palpatine in this (unless the producers are keeping mum). Think this has the potential to be among the best of the series, looks better than the very underwhelming Force Awakens.
