   Rogue One was not part of the movie "Saga", but *everything* in the   
   franchise is part of the Star Wars series. That's something these   
   numbnuts who whine on about having a more "adult" TV series or movie   
   simply do not understand. It's also what Disney don't understand when   
   they ditched the entire existing Expanded Universe.
