ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY---two rumors surfaced about ROGUE ONE. The first rumor involves Mads Mikkelsen (CASINO ROYALE), "Mads Mikkelsen (Galen appears to be his name in the film) is kind of the key to the film in a way. He is a scientist that took over the Geonosian Death Star project. He solved several of the flaws the Empire could not and is sort of a revered person in the Empire for his contributions. However, Mikkelsen’s character is a Robert Oppenheimer-type character. Oppenheimer helped design the atomic bomb only to say, “Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.” The guilt “Galen” feels for his contributions to the Empire become too much and he defects, attempting to make things right. In order to do this, he enlists the help of his only daughter…." Speculation is that the "only daughter" is Felicity Jones, who teams up with other Rebels and possibly mercenaries, to help her father destroy the Death Star he perfected. The second rumor says Guy Henry (HARRY POTTER) will play an Imperial Officer in the movie.
Could be a brilliant back story if the regretful scientist was purposely responsible for implementing the "weak link" (the thermal exhaust port) in the Death Star design.

Damn, I called it all those years ago!
A "weak link" that can only be exploited by suicide missions? Great idea. Just getting the plans out to the good guys and clueing them in about an exploitable flaw would have been heroic enough.
Considering del Toro's "Creature from the Black Lagoon" remake, his "Fantastic Voyage" probably won't have anything to do with the original. If he ever makes it.

I didn't say it was a good plan.
LOL...But wait, you said it was a "brilliant back story."

Haha, actually just a few days ago I was mentioning on here what a terrible plan it was. The engineer develops a weak link virtually impossible to exploit unless your one Luke Skywalker and you have the force.
Here's the better plan. Design the Death Star so it explodes the first time you try to fire its main weapon.

I never saw Rogue One, but being my own devil's advocate, if the Oppenheimer guy intentionally added a fatal flaw, he would have had to bury it to get past the other design engineers. And suicide missions are not unheard of. I'm reminded how all the Russian scientists helping Clint in FIREFOX are cold-bloodedly killed... but at least one of them is granted a dying glimpse of success so it feels worth it.
Can we just post pics of the first topic in the post heading......which more closely resemble my body shape....rather than those well sculpted nobodies who never blew up a planet. Oooooooh. Check out that dish!
I'm having some difficulty moving forward with casting this project.
It could be for one or more of several reasons.
Reason #1: I have not been looking at good-looking men in media often enough to know who is out there and available for this project.
I resolve to do better in this .
Reason #2: There are too many good-looking men in media, enough that I cannot keep up.
I'm thinking this is because now it is far, far too-easy for far, far too many good-looking men to paste themselves on every available surface on the internet.
Not that I'm saying this is a bad thing!
Reason #3: I'm not that interested in good-looking men anymore.

I mean, really. Would Raquel Welch have done this back in the day??
