    Bond has always gone forward, not backward. Embrace the unknown and change. Us old timer Boomers who grew up on Connery had to do this long ago.

    Try to Star Wars fans that. Lucasfilm makes The Force Awakens and Solo familiar, they get criticized not taking risks. They do the opposite with Rogue One and The Last Jedi, they are told it’s too different. As for Bond, when AVTAK was made in the 80’s, it was criticized for being a copy of GF, in more ways than one. Amazon will have to strike a familiar, yet risky ground, to prove their worth.

    I don't think i've seen any Star Wars fans dunk on Rogue One, if anything it gets a lot of praise from the fanbase. Literally the only time i saw someone who didn’t like RO was once in the Expanded Universe subreddit.

    I thought ROGUE ONE was awful fan fiction, but it makes sense fans would cling to that anyway.

    Rogue One was dull. It looked like a bad Star Trek movie.

    I have to admit that I’ve seen Rogue One only once and have no desire to see it again. I didn’t think it was a bad film or anything like that but I just haven’t felt compelled to revisit it in the intervening years.

    I've only seen it once as well, although I enjoyed it fine enough. Honestly, I got more out of it than the latest Star Wars trilogy. The weird CGI Peter Cushing was a bit unsettling though.

    I think so too. If anything those are the lessons they can take from films like GE or TLD (even something more left field like CR struck that balance between familiar and new).
