"Seem familiar? I learned this little trick from you, Darth."
Dazed by sudden remembrance, Darth Vader, Lord of the Sith, was utterly disarmed for the two and a half minutes his aging master took to spin around and raise his lightsaber.
This is why Rogue One is better than the prequels will ever be. It actually respects the style of the original film and doesn't show us anything that contradicts the immutable events of A New Hope. Any retcons it introduces (such as the origin of the Death Star flaw) complement and even enhance our understanding of the original film.
Between Lucas and now JK Rowling, why is this so hard?
That, and the prequels are just fundamentally broken in terms of basic storytelling, direction, dialogue, and performance. Never mind all the ways the Prequel Trilogy doesn't square with the original movies.
Who the hell is going to look at Anakin an Obi-Wan's friendship and falling out, Anakin and Padme's relationship, or Anakin's fall and go "Gosh, that was so damn well done. Top quality drama. Just how I would have imagined it"?
Besides which, Rogue One was clearly made by people who not only appreciated the style of the OT, but grasped the human themes at the core of the series. In contrast to the PT's weird unfocused and clumsy narrative that lingers on marginal stuff when it should be developing a strong story that drives toward the key events.
