Star Wars: Rogue One Trailer - 10 Things We Want To See

8. The Rebel Base

Rebel spies. The clue's in the name about just where the team stealing the plans will come from, so it'd be interesting to get a glimpse of the base in the trailer, perhaps early on as setup for the events that follow. 

Come the end of A New Hope the Rebel base lies on Yavin 4, but prior to that it was located on Dantooine, and that would be a fun location to see in both the trailer and the film. 

Obviously it's quickly abandoned, but an establishing shot of the planet, and then a glimpse of a meeting taking place - perhaps with some familiar faces, not just the spies but potential cameos as well - would really help ground its place in the timeline, as well as setting up the mission that comes next.
