Star Wars Rogue One #4 [2016] - Spoilers ahead!



Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, also known simply as Rogue One, is an upcoming live-action Star Wars film, the first in the Star Wars Anthology Series. The film, set for release on December 16, 2016, is directed by Gareth Edwards and produced by Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, amongst many others. Gary Whitta worked on the first draft of the screenplay throughout 2014, and Chris Weitz took over final screenwriting duties in 2015. The film is based on a story concept from John Knoll, Chief Creative Officer/Senior Visual Effects Supervisor of Industrial Light & Magic. The film's score is composed by Alexandre Desplat, marking the first live-action film in the official Star Wars canon to not be scored by John Williams.

Rogue One stars Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Riz Ahmed, Donnie Yen, Jiang Wen, Forest Whitaker, Mads Mikkelsen, and Alan Tudyk. Genevieve O'Reilly reprises her role as Mon Mothma, the leader of the Rebel Alliance; O'Reilly portrayed the character for 2005's Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith, but her scenes were cut.
The film, which began production in August 2015, is set between Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. It is set closer to the latter film and focuses on the efforts of the Rebel Alliance to steal the plans to the Death Star, an event that was referenced in the opening crawl of A New Hope. Jyn Erso, played by Jones, and a group of other characters band together to steal the plans from the Galactic Empire. Edwards has described the film as a grounded, war-based movie, one in which normal people have to come together to fight the Empire as opposed to relying on the Jedi or the Force.

I have a terrible memory and I didn't enjoy the film all that much. All I remember about Vader is thinking he was cheesy.

He probably was. Disney doesn't know how to do Star Wars right.

(And yes, I still haven't seen it. Working on that.)

asking the experts here, or well, anyone.

When we first see Vader in RO, he is emerging from a bacta tank. Question is, why is he there, it's not like he can heal more.

I think that's part of his daily maintenance. He gets his nutrients and energy from that tank I'm assuming. So he probably sleeps there or goes in quite often.

Apparently there are decades old theories that Palpatine purposefully designed Vader's new prosthetics to cause him constant discomfort and pain to keep him angry and attuned to the dark side. And he made Vader slow to prevent him getting too powerful in case he ever turned against him.
