On the cusp of the US release of "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story", Jon and Robert take a final pass at speculation and conversation about the first standalone Star Wars movie.

Topics Covered: Gareth Edwards vs JJ Abrams as visual stylists. More reshoot talk. Vague "early buzz" from people who have seen it. The creatures of "Rogue One" and what we think of them. Reviews of Star Wars: Rebels episodes, "The Wynkathu Job", "An Inside Man" and the mid-season finale, "Visions and Voices". Shrimp.

This is probably the last TB of 2016. We will be back asap to give our thoughts on the movie. We hope it's good. Thanks for listening.
