On the eve of Star Wars Celebration 2022 and the premiere of Obi-Wan Kenobi, let's talk about the best movie of the Disney Star Wars era: Rogue One. The Disney Star Wars era has been...a disappointment to say the least. That being said, early on in this new age of Star Wars movies, they kind of had the right idea. In theory, these one off, spin-off, Star Wars Story adventures allowed for us to visit any point in the Star Wars timeline, spend time with new and interesting characters, and add to the overall mythology of the Star Wars universe. Gareth Edwards' Rogue One was the perfect version of this. I've long felt that Rogue One A Star Wars Story marked the pinnacle of Star Wars under the regime of Kathleen Kennedy. It had the unmistakable trademark of it's director, a compelling narrative with a great group of characters you can get behind, AND it deconstructed the very nature of the Galactic Civil War conflict and the truths we thought we knew. Rebels become bad guys, Imperials become heroes, it's a story that examines the gray area of a universe spanning conflict and rediscovering the reason for the fight, believing in hope. Rogue One is the best star wars movie, in my opinion, because it reminds me of what I love most about Star Wars with an added commentary that understands, things aren't always so straightforward. This is also the best star wars movie because for the first time arguably ever, we get a straight up war film in the Star Wars universe, a movie that puts the WAR in Star Wars making for the greatest climax to a Star Wars movie ever. Griffin gives you his Rogue One review or Rogue One analysis and explains why Rogue One is the best star wars movie, why Rogue One is underrated, and why rogue one is my favorite Star Wars movie.
