As much as we'd love to see the original version of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, if only to know what the original plan for the movie was, it feels like, with this one piece of information, we can say that the reshoots were probably the right move. Watching Darth Vader do his worst in that scene adds so much, not simply to the movie, but to the trilogy as a whole. It portrays Darth Vader as a terrifying force of nature in a way that even the original trilogy just doesn't. It ups the tension at the tail end of the film one last time just to get to the audience. We all know the Rebels are going to escape, but watching Vader's wrath, we can't figure out how exactly they're going to do that.
