"soulless cash grab" is an accusation that is invariably thrown at any sequel/reboot/etc. for no other reason than that it was made, and that a major corporation was involved in its production. Hence, I don't tend to take it terribly seriously.
You are, of course, entitled to your opinion, but personally I thought Rogue One, while flawed, was a fine film. But you are correct that it doesn't have much bearing on the Skywalker storyline.
However, I do think having seen Rogue One first would affect your experience and perceptions of A New Hope, hence my inclusion of it.

"I know its easy to be defeatist here because nothing has seemingly reigned Trump in so far. But I will say this: every asshole succeeds until finally, they don't. Again, 18 months before he resigned, Nixon had a sky-high approval rating of 67%. Harvey Weinstein was winning Oscars until one day, he definitely wasn't."-John Oliver

Yeah, I got carried away there. >.<The Romulan Republic wrote: ↑2017-08-29 01:47pm "soulless cash grab" is an accusation that is invariably thrown at any sequel/reboot/etc. for no other reason than that it was made, and that a major corporation was involved in its production.

I'm still not a big fan of it or TFA for that matter. I just don't know why.
On-topic: I haven't tried Machete Order though it seems like a good way to watch the mainline series. Not better than the usual order, but I'm not going to call it invalid due to unorthodoxy either.
Seeing current events as they are is wrecking me emotionally. So I say 'farewell' to this forum. For anyone who wonders.
