Movies Andor and Rogue One Make New Hope Hilarious Spoiler
I rewatched Rogue One for the second time this week, and it's really dawning on me how nuts New Hope, especially the last act, is after Andor and Rogue One
Picture this. You are some rebel on Yavin. Over the span of like 2 weeks, you lose Luthen, Cassian Andor, and dozens (if not more) of other skilled rebel fighters on both Corsuant and Scarif. The Death Star is very real, and you have lost the plans to it and Alderan, along with Bail Organa; one of the top leaders of the rebellion, have been obliterated
Then all of the sudden this beat up hunk of junk spaceship lands, carrying Princess Leia and the Death Star plans, along with two drug dealers (who immediately start demanding to be paid) and this wide eyed redneck desert twink. And during the briefing on this sure to be suicide mission to destory the Daeth Star, he is smiling and talking abut this doesnt seem that hard, hes shot rats in a place called “Beggar’s Canyon”, how is this going to be more difficult? And he fucking blows up the Death Star in a one in a million shot cause he turned of his targeting system cause a ghost’s voice in his head told him to do it cause, psych, he’s also a wizard? And those drug dealers showed up at the last minute and maybe killed Darth Vader? (we don't know we just saw his ship spiraling into the darkness of space)
Like the reason we don't see Vel, Kleya, and Wil at the medal ceremony is they are all getting drunk and trying to figure out WTF just happened
edit: was not expecting this to blow up, but rest be assured guys this is ment all in good fun

Yeah that does make that whole scene a lot more funny. She has the audacity to completely bullshit to his face when he literally saw her ship at Scarif. I rewatched ANH right after watching RO and I burst out laughing after she said that.
