Michael Giacchino vs Alexandre Desplat. Which Rogue One composer makes a better fit?

On this episode, we delve into the film music of both Alexandre Desplat and Michael Giacchino to determine which would make the better Rogue One composer. We couldn’t do it alone, so Anthony Fox of MousePire joins us to offer some extra insight.
