Disney has a new creature featurette video out showing off some of the amazing looking aliens from Rogue One. The more I see from this movie the more I am excited for seeing it, yet I note that the Star Wars hype train doesn't seem as large as last years. Since there was such a long distance between the last prequel film Revenge of the Sith and The Force Awakens, it makes sense that The Force Awakens nearly overtook last years holiday season to essentially be STAR WARS AND christmas TOO. That said, there doesn't seem to be as much Rogue One hype this year, which I honestly don't mind. Oh and the initial reviews seem to be mostly postive which helps to quiet my mind that this might live up to my expectations.

But don't take my word for it checkout the collider article below.

Lucas has apparently given it his blessing, which is something Episode VII was missing. That's good or bad I guess, depending on how you see it.

I think it's good news. Lucas biggest beef with or 7 was that it was a retro film that didn't do much new. I liked it but the criticism was valid. Hopefully Gareth did something different.

I heard Lucas likes Rogue One because it reminds him of Red Tails
