Rewatching Star Wars Rogue One on Disney Plus means Dolby Atmos 4K HDR (even if not quite full 1000 nits) but the upgrade in audio alone is worth it.

I can’t help but compare similar scenes here and with Rise of Skywalker.

With Rogue One, there’s just more at stake.

When K2SO is down, he’s down for good. There’s no take back like C3PO in ROS.

Cassian’s past haunts him. There’s substance. The things he has done that he’s not proud of. So he seeks redemption. At any and all costs.

Po’s past as a spice runner does nothing for him.

And when faced with the inevitable, the two protagonists in Rogue One don’t kiss. There’s no rhyme or reason to. They embrace for the coming impact. ReyLo kiss made no sense.
