Considering all the work that goes into news reporting, it's maddening when they obviously didn't do the five seconds' worth of research to check basic facts. It's like the time when a news piece on Trek used footage from the Trek fan film "Renegades."
I loved Rogue One, but the CGI used to recreate Peter Cushing was shaky at best. There are subtleties to human expression that even the best CGI cannot capture. When they first show him and you only see his refection on the glass, that's probably the best it looked for the entire movie.
Prefer Tarkin over Leia. Thankfully, her scene was mercifully short.
Leia didn't look like Carrie Fisher so much as someone wearing a good Carrie Fisher mask.
"And I would have gotten away with it too, If it weren't for you meddling kids!"
No, because the Temporal Cold War and Borg Incursion changed nothing.
But we can’t be sure about that.
Sure we can. The people who wrote both said so.
That's the beauty of fiction. Things can change if the show-runners want it to.
Exactly.
Technically there's nothing stopping them, but it does potentially confuse/alienate those who would be completely new to Trek and would never have seen Enterprise, First Contact, etc.
