Rogue 2 Part 6
🕑 Added 2023-08-01 06:55:16 +0000 UTCMy lord, I thought I was smart when I divided up the movie into groups. It made narrative sense, it would reduce clutter, and make scheduling a little easier. But here at the end with everyone intersecting and dividing, nearby but not necessarily directly interacting, but not necessarily not directly interacting, this became a logistical headache like no other.
Sometimes I need to resist my most expansive impulses. But I can't of course. I love this story and I wouldn't have done it any other way. It was what the story required.
In a weird way this provides an example of the show being in a way better in the edit than at the table. I love the cutting back and forth, the tension of how the different approaches to the Death Star are going to play out against each other. The players themselves largely ended up siloing, only worried about their own team, largely forgetting that there were two other parallel attacks ongoing. But in the finished edit, the cutting back and forth brings dynamism to it that I didn't have in the room, even as the one person who knew how all the storylines were going. This will only increase in part 7.
Sorry for the long delay. Back on a regular schedule now. Rogue 2 will end in a very exciting part 7. Hope you enjoy it.

Accurate.

Carolyn's line "what do you want me to call you, dickhead?" as C3PO is the improv theater analogue to "what a piece of work is man."
