Something something father something reactor something plans to the death star something hope.
A pretty terrible episode. I’m not going to bother watching another of these..
AKA Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, because fuck sensible naming.

In a world where video game characters are alive, a lonely bad guy tries to earn appreciation but ends up threatens ruin.
A fun movie, most appropriate for the nostalgia fans of various old arcade games. It goes very very old, like Pixels – (2015 movie), which puts it in a particularly odd space. I think this one ends up being childish and unique enough that its various reference aren’t in the way of an actual proper movie.

An Old One is awakened, and renews his takeover of the world.. except we already know the good guys win because this takes place in the 80s and a past movie, set in the then-future, has an intact world with all characters accounted for.
A standard superhero movie, with nothing particularly interesting. Extremely confusing given that this is a sequel to a sequel to a prequel or some shit.
I would have done a few things different, and even a few subtle changes would have made this movie a hell of a lot better.
Definitely pass on this unless you’re really into this particular series.
Properly titled X-Men: Apocalypse

A child with an allergy to peanuts hallucinates an indian statue as Tonto telling him a story with the Lone Ranger.
Johnny Depp has started taking terrible cornball roles, and this movie is a steaming pile of shit. His native-American character feels cringeworthingly blackface-esque. I can see how the occasional comedic bit can make a movie fun, but the entire spirit of this movie feels just a touch too serious for there to be the right comedy-adventure feeling like that in Pirates of the Caribbean꞉ The Curse of the Black Pearl – (2003 movie).
See Lone Ranger

Dying of cancer, a dishonourably-discharged special forces soldier submits to experimentation to save his life, which was actually to enslave him and resulted in mutant powers with a scarring side effect, forcing him to hunt down his creator for both revenge and the cure.
An adequate movie on-par with the other adequate superhero movies. This has some significant laugh-out-loud moments, and with a lot of blood and cursing to make it an R-rated movie, it rides on the ho-hum samey-same superhero movie trend all the way to success.
Features nothing new or interesting in the expanded universe. In fact, involves nothing from any other movie whatsoever.
Recommended for those who are hipster for the “superhero genre” movie trend.

Random people go on a merry adventure looking for Luke.
DO NOT WATCH Not just because it takes a steaming dump overtop of the already steaming dumpyness of the prequels, but because it’s badly written and unresolved. Go and watch The Matrix Reloaded – (2003 movie) instead. That piece of shit somehow has less issues.
Followed by Rogue One – (2015 movie)
