  • As someone who has seen it all—especially the infinity saga several times over, but generally not impressed by what has come since—this was pretty fun.

    It felt like lower stakes, even though technically the threat was essentially world-ending, and in a nightmarish way. And there’s something to be said for a movie that makes you empathize with the least-liked character in the bunch.

    You can be cynical about the acknowledgement of mental health concerns in modern life, or you can maybe see it as a progressive move that might open the MCU up to more kinds of stories. The kind of stuff we get a bit of in the TV shows, actually.

    I will say, however, that the campaign billing this as the “A24 of MCU movies” was a bit of an over-sell.

  • Tony was on the scriptnotes podcast a week or two ago saying that yes, the original plan was a season for each of the five years of Cassian’s life leading up to Rogue One.

    But after making the first season, he realized he’d never finish at that scale, not just because of his own bandwidth or his collaborators (his brother, as well as Beau Willimon), but also because of how much time getting each season made would take. So many shows at that scale aren’t hitting a one-per-year pace.

    So yeah, Tony didn’t want the next decade of his life wrapped up in this project. Who can blame him?
