 Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! I'm going to guess 90 because every huge tentpole they've released this year has gotten 90. (Zootopia, The Jungle Book, Civil War, Dory, Doctor Strange and Moana)

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! 85%
If a barely mediocre rehashed movie like TFA got 92% then I don't see how this could ever end up rotten with critics. They eat it up obviously. Disney must make those preview showing very sweet for them.

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! 68%. This has grudgingly positive because it's SW written all over it. So in reality it should be 40%

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! In the 70s. I'll say 72 percent. Goodwill for Star Wars brand and many of the actors involved will help. The well-documented behind-the-scenes turmoil will hinder, and critics may be searching for moments where cynical Disney execs shoehorned in comic relief or an extra action sequence, etc., etc.

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! Disney has obviously cracked the RT code for the most part. If this doesn't get a score over 90, they fucked Them selves over.

All their tentpoles that matter get scores over 90 since TFA

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! Apparently the studio has required many reshoots and edits which is not a good sign generally.

The only positive about the reshoots and edits is that Tony Gilroy was running the show. While he probably couldn't perform a miracle, I've got a lot more faith in him than Edwards. I'm thinking 65% is just about right for this. Critics will give it a pass, but just barely. _________________

He started in June, but I'd imagine a lot of that was the reshoots / new edit(s). I guess the lesson learned for Disney is to just hire Gilroy to make your next Star Wars movie to begin with. _________________

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! And the only reason Edwards isn't Josh Trank 2.0 (or at the very least: Bourne Identity-era Doug Liman) is because he's smart enough to play ball and say all the right things publicly despite (seemingly) having his film taken away from him.

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! 84% so far. Final number will be +-1% I guess as it already has 207 reviews.

Re: Predict Rogue One: A Star Wars Story'a Tomatometer! _axiom wrote: 84% so far. Final number will be +-1% I guess as it already has 207 reviews. It's easy to get a high score on Rotten Tomatoes when reviews like this one count as "Fresh". Quote: In this installment, a prequel between “Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith” and “Star Wars Episode IV – A New Hope,” the stars are gone and much of the spirit has been lost, leaving only a lot more wars.
After her backstory is established, resourceful Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) joins the Alliance, working with Rebel Intelligence Officer Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) and a ragtag group of freedom fighters, to steal plans for the Death Star, an immense galactic weapon designed by Jyn’s father Galen (Mads Mikkelsen), from Darth Vader’s evil Empire.
That’s the plot in a nutshell. Combat prevails as a multitude of characters are all-too-briefly introduced, only to disappear into the ether from which they emerged.
There’s Saw Gerrera (Forest Whitaker), Bail Organa (Jimmy Smits), Bodi Rook (Riz Ahmed), Baze Malbus (Wen Jiang) and Chirrut Imwe, and a blind Ninja (Hong Kong action star Donnie Yen) who is guided by the Force – plus villainous Imperial overlord Orson Krennic (Ben Mendelsohn). James Earl Jones once-again voiced Darth Vader.
Cassian Andor’s black metallic robot, K-2SO (voiced by Alan Tudyk), provides caustic comic relief – and there are some cool cameos, made possible by CGI and motion-capture technology.
Screenwriters Chris Weitz and Tony Gilroy work with director Gareth Edwards (“Monsters,” “Godzilla”) and Industrial Light and Magic’s chief creative officer Jack Kroll to coalesce the fantasy around the scrappy warrior, Jyn Erso. Unfortunately, she lacks the spunky appeal of Daisy Ridley’s Rae in J.J. Abrams’ “The Force Awakens.”
On the Granger Movie Gauge of 1 to 10, “Star Wars: Rogue One” is a spacefaring 6 – like a big-screen computer game with lots of Stormtroopers.
