My favourite genocide

You too are a project director for a genocidal government that gets credit for his planet killer taken away?

It sounds like you have problems with your boss at work

He was a great Villain, wish they would have done more with him. Just a classic military antagonist without the force or lightsabers

He’s just tryna get his job done.

And the ending was perfect, sacrifices had to be made, but a new hope would emerge

those look like the ones from dark forces 1 or the dark troopers with jet packs in battlefront 2004!

Because it’s really a complete tragic story, everyone dies.

It kinda drags on too long in the middle though

As a standalone it fails more than any other though.

😐

oof quite painful knowing that his hard work and effort won't be recognised lol

Oh damn!

His death is one of the most symbolic in all of the movies. Just showing how regardless of your rank, they are willing to sacrifice you if it meets their goals, thus, operation cinder (especially) ect.

i think in the book he also has a moment just before he dies where he's like "actually wait these bitches stole my plans and there is a weakness in them HAHAHHA TAKE THAT TARKIN BITCH"

how was he outmaneuvered by Tarkin?

Tarkin saw him as a rival and out maneuvered him by trying to take credit for the Death Star and later used the opportunity to kill him so he can command it.

I may be remembering this incorrectly, but I think canonically his final thoughts were him realizing the flaw and realizing tarkin would eventually fail

It wasn't exactly so friendly

None other than Tarkin. He will not hesitate to kill off his own men.

he died from death

"Friendly Fire", that's an odd player name

"Friendly Fire" by his own weapon.

Sounded like a mix of Australian and British to me, not pure Australian.

@@Walpurgis117 Yes. My actor did use part of his native accent for me.

@@theHamMaster8000 How did it feel to take a Death Star superlaser shot to the face?

@@Walpurgis117 Not… Not pleasent ok?

@@Walpurgis117 It's a deliberate effect. Krennic is not from the core worlds, which is a subject of some derision amongst the entrenched political elite. So, he tries to hide it in his voice.

Exactly! Rogue One & Andor is the best what happened to Star Wars series. It is "Star Wars for adults/growns up", as has been said about Andor already.

Tarkin was practically in charge of the galaxy, he was more competent

@@LordVader1094 yeah well Tarkin is a perfect example of having vast resources and power, but using it for either trivial things or simply to show you have them. Tarkin micromanaged so many different Imperial operations to the point that the people who are actually supposed to be in charge often being lazy or incompetent is almost justified since Tarkin actively chose to do their jobs for them, or at least the hard parts. He was in charge of a massive portion of the Galaxy and oversaw numerous imperial projects, but he dedicated his time to hunting small rebel cells (like he did in Season 1 of Rebels) and making displays of power (like he does in literally everything) instead of improving the Empire as a whole. He is VERY competent when it comes to getting things done, but he is laughably incompetent when it comes to what he decides to do. He usurped Krennic’s position purely as a political stunt when Krennic was (likely more than) half the reason the Death Star project even worked. He then destroyed an entire Imperial base containing thousands of their own troops and a very important data storage facility (we know they were there for the Death Star plans, but who knows what else may have been destroyed?) all to annihilate a measly few rebels who likely would have been captured or killed by the troops (thus also costing him the opportunity to interrogate them for information on their mission and the plans), or what was likely the true motivation, to eliminate his political rival, who also happened to know the weakness of their superweapon. Then, when the attack on the Death Star came, he refused to scramble fighters because he arrogantly believed the station was invincible (and also likely to demonstrate its capacity for self-defense, as if the Emperor wasn’t already fully on board with the project). Again, he’s very good at doing things, but he sucks at deciding what he needs to do.

@@LordVader1094 Generation Tech has said otherwise!

I honestly think if Krennic had taken charge during Episode IV the Death Star wouldn't have been destroyed.

@@braddsfx8921 I don't know about that, but Krennic would survive it's explosion by leaving. He would at least evacuated all the non essential personnel. And unleash all their fighters. Luke was a great pilot.

His actor is also brother to thrawn's actor in rebels

@@blueraccoon1088 no you’re thinking of Galen Erso’s actor Mads Mikkelsen. Brother of Lars Mikkelsen (Thrawn).

MOOVE!!!

Imperial Officers: *Calling reinforcements and reporting for the attack* *Imperial SAS alarm in the background*

YESSS Ronan is one of my favorites...

Have you read Rogue One Catalyst? It has some pretty cool Krennic scenes

@@josesanchezrodriguez1783 I have to echo this. That book made me appreciate this movie SO much more.

Ohh yes! Especially the Thrawn novels for me... For some odd reason Assistant Director Ronan is climbing his way up to #1 in favorite imperials 🤣😅 he needs content.

Watch episodes 15-16 of The Bad Batch season 2

I wish they put him in Battlefront 2 as a hero.

The ONLY GOOD star wars film by Disney. The others are a disgrace to the cinema.

More like one of the worst ones. -Yeah, let's just abandon the one guy, who can vouch for Jyn. -Yeah, you can just push star destroyers into each other, with the use of very small ships. -Oh, so Deathstar 1 weakness was sabotage? Cool, so why didn't they fix it on the second one? -Yeah, let's give Darth Vader a cool hallway scene, wherin he uses the force. But have him ignore the deathstar plans, for some reason. -Yeah, let's just make Tarkin out to be a petty bully, and not a cool and calculated villian, as we see in episode 4. Tarkin is essentially the high school bully, who steal your who homework and pass it off as his one.

@@Orcawhale1 Do you like, have fun every once in a while? Or is it just a holiday thing.

I agree with those points completely. Rogue One truly felt like an integral prequel to the original Star Wars trilogy, because of the stakes, Krennic being a great villain, more exposition provided regarding the Death Star and the Rebellion… And how vital the members of Rogue One were to the overall canon. If it hadn’t been for the sacrifices of Jyn Erso and everyone else, the Rebellion may never have triumphed over the Empire. And Rogue One’s ending ties in beautifully to the start of A New Hope as well. It’s utterly masterful. 🙂

@@jackbrown3985 Ahhh yes, the classic "You must be fun at parties" Because a person has standards and cares more about things than you. This sort of dumb behaivour is exactly why we keep getting mediocore superhero movies, and another transformers movie. So i suggest you just shut up.

It's Cassian, not Kassim lol.. Autocorrect be like

@@mistera2834it made him sounds like a typical iraqi man lmao

His billowing cake? Damn, Krennic be thicc

@@judeh8160 goddammit 😭 you know what I meant

Please do NOT fix this typo

LMAO, a quite obvious error but a hilarious one at that!

No wonder he wore that cape... He was hiding that billowing thiccness

Side character ? He's main antagonist of Rogue One lol

@@SK133Zangetsu in the grand scheme of Star Wars I’d consider him a side character.

I was impressed they got Ben Mendelsohn back for such a short bit.

In an analysis, it is revealed that in his final moments he actually saw the weakness planted by Galen. He then knew that Tarkin has indeed taken over his creation, but that in the end, he too will fall by his own arrogance.

And also the Empire wouldn't have had such a big shock moment by the destruction of the DS1, which not only questioned it's competence, but also fueled rebell movements, while killing many competent officers, soldiers and work force.

@@_jpgyou know the death star destruction fueled up so much the timeline split up to two stage: before the destruction and after the destruction

Literally like 3 of my favorite characters. Just toss in thrawn and general veers for good measure

And all three if them die in horrible explosions

Hux really irritates me. He should've been on this list, but then they turned him into a joke

@@junior523 The first time Hux appears he is good, and when he is working alongside Ade Edmonson on the bridge, two great faces doing a good job. It's how his character is treated by other characters and the writer that lets him down, Domhnall Gleeson plays him excellently, especially when you read about his character's backstory as being abused all the way through his life leading to him executing someone for it. Gleeson really plays the spite and 'snivellyness' into his character, the look he gives his superiors like he is jealously plotting to replace them, loyal out of spite like how Snoke compares him to a beaten down dog. He's like an arrogant angry version of his Judge Dredd character, still thrown about by his superiors, but a lot stronger himself. I have only watched the first two sequels, after that I frankly lost interest, but what I have heard from others is more often than not his character is considered as a joke by the final film...

Thrawn

Who would’ve known sherlock.

You didn't know that?

No offense but please don’t post this kind of idiotic comment captain obvious, embarrassing 🤦‍♂️

I wonder what happened to alderaan i don’t know if the death star has something to do with it

Seems like water is wet and fire burns

Former Imperial nations.

😂😂😂

I thought the geonosians did

Tbh if u think about it now, death star is just a waste of money that blew up after a couple days anyway lol, should go with Thrawn’s plan

@@madtitan0825 The Death Star was perfect and undestructible, created not just to win the Civil War but to protect the Galaxy from species like the Yuzaang Vong. The problem is that Galen Sabotaged it and Tarkin was just uncompetent in military issues. If Krennic had survived, the Rebelion would have been crushed

@@manuelojanguren661 but nevertheless it’s still such an inefficient weapon like the rebels r scattered across the galaxy, like what r u gonna blow up every planet where the rebels can potentially be and waste all those resources on the planet?

@@madtitan0825 The thing it's that there are billions of planets, and the Death Star was only going to blow up the big rebel bases. The rest, the Navy could handle and very well

never thought of that!! Him and tarkin get revenge for saw wrecking his crib

Oh look it's Krennic, back from the dead. It's a miracle.

fr leaders in the empire always be dramatic like that

Hejust probably wanted to go for a walk

She plays the person who was supposed to become Black Cat in The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

😂😂😂

The Bad Batch season 2

read Thrawn: Treason then

5:12

That’s the plan!👍

@@JournaloftheWhills Good…Good 😈

Thanks as always!

@@JournaloftheWhills you're welcome

Krennic is the second person after Palpatine to say "Dew it" and get someone killed, successfully.

That was a perfect clip moment
