Star for the toes comment...

When did it pass the Bechdel Test? If I remember correctly, Mon Mothma and Jyn talk about her father, Saw Gerrera, and Cassian. Later, the rebellion alliance leaders (women, mostly) discuss whether they trust Galen Erso or not.

Bail Organa says he will send Leia to collect the transmission, but he is headed back to Alderaan. Bail Antilles was the captain of the vessel Leia is on and the owner of the droids. Threepio calls out Capt Antilles as his owner in ANH.

When the rebels were setting the charges on the beach, two stormtroopers did a callback to ANH when Obi Wan is powering down the tractor beam.
