I'd have to argue against the diplomatic mission part not making sense. I believe that Leia was making an excuse as a lie to that and Vader called her out on her BS.

Totally agree on the love story aspect.
It would be interesting to see if any of the characters pop up in future anthology films as they are not being made in a linear time fashion. Could be room to play a little there.

Totally.
Princess Leia Organa: Darth Vader. Only you could be so bold. The Imperial Senate will not sit still for this. When they hear you've attacked a diplomatic... Darth Vader: Don't act so surprised, Your Highness. You weren't on any mercy mission this time. Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you.
Princess Leia Organa: I don't know what you're talking about. I am a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan...
Darth Vader: You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor! Take her away!
That was great! I also enjoyed K2 with threatens Andor with a "fresh one"
Looks pretty close, neat how it sort of resembles the DS.

I just saw it. Although it's a much better film than TFA, I still long for the days when star wars was a space opera. Who would imagine that there would be a star wars movie that you can't take your kids to? Then again, you can't take your kids to see Batman movies either.

In my opinion that group of ships was suited up to go to get Kenobi but when they heard the Scarif rebel call they went there instead.
Well, his skin did look better coming out of the suit in ROTJ then it did going in ROTS. I guess maybe years of baths in the tank did help to heal his burned skin.
Has anyone heard an official source comment definitively on whether or not Scarif was Lehon/Rakata Prime?
I realize that just because it is a tropical beach/jungle planet doesn't mean it has to be Lehon. And if I recall the canon map from the TFA VD, Rakata Prime was in the Unknown Regions, while Scarif appears to be in the Outer Rim.
...after typing all that, I guess I just answered my own question. Still, it would have been a nice KOTOR tie-in.

I genuinely laughed hard at that line! That was gold.

OK. That good enough.
Yes, I am guessing they jumped to hyperspace, thinking they eluded the Empire, only to get nabbed anyway over Tatooine, and tried to play innocent.
"No, that wasn't us at the Battle of Scarif. You must have us confused with another Corellian corvette."
I was standing in line at the theater this morning when my wife called me broken down on the side of the road with an overheated car. Long story short I got the car home, took her to work, ran her errands, and replaced the thermostat instead of taking in a second viewing of R1. I'm only bummed that I didn't think to get a refund before I left as the movie was 1.5 hours before starting.
Really interesting analysis of what may have been changed during the reshoots.

I did go see for a 2nd time today and I liked it even more. I was trying to figure out why I was feeling so weird after the movie even though I enjoyed it. I think it was just that feeling of melancholy because the main crew died. I'm not a big fan of main people dying and I understand it makes the movie a bit better but still. Ugh, the feels.
