Rogue One' may be a better film than 'The Force Awakens

On this episode of "Pat & Stu," Doc Thompson, Kari Malinak and Brad Staggs discuss ways you can avoid your family this holiday season.  One way, spend two hours watching the new "Star Wars" movie.

"Rogue One" marks the first film in the "Star Wars" franchise, which doesn't start out from one of the nine original books. Is "Rogue One" or "The Force Awakens" the better "Star Wars" film?

Brad believes it's "Rogue One": "I thought that this was better, now there is an interesting thing, all the main characters in 'Rogue One' have something in common by the end of it."

Kari shares one of the fan theories about the female lead and her possible connection to "The Force Awakens" and future films. "They believe that the female lead, and this is based on the trailer, they believe that the female lead is actually Rey's mom."
