I can totally do that! You should have asked before 😋

2019-12-13 17:40:01 +0000 UTCI was impressed with that one as well. Evidently the lady that made it used to be active and several years ago and is only know getting back into the swing of things. Of course nothing beats Juli reacting to something.

2019-12-13 15:26:02 +0000 UTCThanks very much for your reaction Juli. Amazing third act in this movie. So sad but so so epic. Your audio was great! No troubles there! One thing that I’ve been hesitant to ask/suggest for a while now but since you’re considering re-arranging your setup... is there any chance you’d consider making the video of what you’re reacting to a little bit larger? Obviously we have to see you for your awesome reactions. But I have poor eyesight and it would be great if I could see what you’re watching a little clearer, too. I totally understand if you can’t or don’t want to, but I thought I’d ask 😅

2019-12-13 11:18:25 +0000 UTCFirst and foremost... I am so sorry that your son is sick and I truly hope that he feels better quickly. I hope you felt no pressure from me when you were trying to watch and react to this amazing movie for me. And if you did, I am truly sorry. I want you to know, you never owe me anything and I never wish for you to feel pressured to make these reactions for me. Oh... and in regards to your worries about the sound of your microphone and the volumes... everything sounded good to me just as it is. Now, as for my thoughts about Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and on you reaction for it... Thank you so much! I really love this movie, and I am so happy that you really enjoyed this movie a lot too. And I'm so happy that you quickly picked up on where and when this movie's overall storyline took place within the Star Wars Universe... or Galaxy rather. Ha! Ha! Ha! :) I love that this movie was created so that we can see just how it is Leia has the plans for the Death Star, like we see that she does from the very beginning within the original Star Wars... Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. I love that this movie introduces us to a new group of Rebels within the Alliance who are all striving to find any information about the Empire that will help them to prevent the Empire's deadly plans the Alliance fear about them. And in so doing, one of the Intelligence officers discovers that the Empire has built the Death Star, known only to them at the time as a "planet killer", and unfortunately, the Empire has completed it. Now... they need to find someone they received word had helped to build the Death Star. I absolutely love the overall storylines, especially in regards to the Rebels and how they enlist Jyn Erso to help them find her father, the lead designer and builder of the Death Star, forced to do so against his will. However, I love that Galen Erso also creates a trap within the Death Star, allowing for the Alliance to destroy it like we see Luke succeed in doing in A New Hope. Most of all, I love how the a small group within the Alliance go against word of the Council when they refuse to rise against the Empire out of fear, as this band that comes to be known as Rogue One invades the Imperial base where the plans for the Death Star are hidden. Unfortunately and tragically... each member of Rogue One dies, including each of our main characters who sacrifice everything for the Alliance so they could cripple the Empire. And they succeed. I absolutely love it. As for the new and main characters... I love Jyn, K-2S0, Chirrut, Baze, and Bodhi. And I love a number of all the other new characters created for this movie. However, my overall favorite of the new characters is Cassian Andor, the intelligence officer who brings the Alliance news of the "planet killer" and who fights alongside Jyn and K-2S0 to steal the plans. I love what little we learn about why he's a fighter within the Alliance, as he reveals to Jyn he has been with the Rebels in this fight since he was six years old, after he lost everything. I wish we learned more about him, and how he came to work with K-2S0. And I love actor, Diego Luna as well. Jyn of course is also amazing, as the daughter of Galen Erso and Rebel after the death of her father. I love her determination to avenge her father and to complete the mission he had set out to do for him. In regards to Cassian's and Jyn's relationship... they never were romantically involved, mostly because they never had the chance to grow that much closer than they had before they were both killed. However, Cassian and Jyn most definitely came to feel a very deep respect for one another and grew close in such a short amount of time. I would have loved to see them survive, if only just so we could have had the chance to see their relationship evolve. But with that being said, their deaths were heartbreaking and beautiful. I love their final moments when Cassian comes back to save Jyn in spite of being severely injured a short tie earlier when he shoots Director Krennic before he can kill her. I love the brief moment between them as they look into each other's eyes, and I love as Cassian reaches out to take Jyn's hand as the blast from the Death Star is approaching them, as Cassian tells Jyn that her father would be proud of her. Such a beautiful and heartbreaking moment. As for the appearances from the characters we've loved since the original Star Wars movies... I was pleasantly surprised that we saw so many. And sadly, a number of the actors who played some of them have passed away since the original movies. Princess Leia makes a very brief appearance in the very end as Carrie Fisher offers her voice for a single line and word... "Hope". Sadly, Carrie Fisher died the very year this movie was released in theaters, the night after Christmas. I also love that through CGI, we were able to see Leia just as she was back in 1977. Another character from A New Hope we see here in Rogue One, whose actor also passed away long ago, is Governor Tarkin played by Peter Cushing. Tarkin worked alongside Darth Vader in A New hope and was directly under the Emperor's command, in charge of finishing the work on the Death Star. Tarkin was killed when the Death Star was destroyed. As for Tarkin being in Rogue One... He was all done through CGI and voiced by a different actor who was able to mimic Peter Cushing's voice, given that Cushing had died not long after the original Star Wars back in 1977. We also get to see a brief cameo appearance from both R2-D2 and C3-P0, which I love. And I absolutely love that Leia's adopted father, Senator Bail Organa from Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones and Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, was brought back for this movie as well, as he is a member of the Alliance Council. But what I love most of all is the brief scene between him and Mon Mothma, the Council's leader, as they talk about enlisting Obi Wan Kenobi for their battle ahead, and knowing the one person he absolutely trusts to seek Obi Wan out... his own daughter, Leia. And last but not least... Darth Vader himself. I absolutely love seeing him brought back for this movie. I especially love the moment when he steps onto the Alliance ship during the major space battle, then completely wipes out the soldiers in order to try to get back the plans before the Alliance can use them to destroy all of the Empire's hard work. This scene was amazing and dark. I love it, while my stomach twists in knots as Vader kills all of these good men. It's tragic, and just an amazing scene. I also love getting to see the lava planet where Vader resides on... Mustafar. Overall... I absolutely love this movie and its incredible characters. I am so happy that you enjoyed this movie as well, and even more grateful to you for your reaction for it. So thank you! I am looking forward to your next Star Wars reaction for Solo: A Star Wars Story whenever you're able to get around to watching it. No pressure. Get your son well first and foremost. And as for you reacting to the final Star Wars movie, Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker... I would absolutely love to see you react to it if you choose to do so, and I would be very happy to be able to sponsor it for you. Just let me know when it becomes available for you to watch, and that will be one of my sponsored films for that month. :) You're amazing, Juli!!! Thank you!!! Until next time...
