Watched first 3 of Andor last night. I hope they keep doing stuff like this with the universe. It's ok to be done with the Skywalker story line.

 

[zoonation]

Andor is by far the best TV show they have done.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Yeah Andor is turning out to be a home run.

One thing that stands out, is that they are able to build tension and take their time. They have 12 episodes, as opposed to 6 or 8. I also think this is only planned for 1 more 12 episode season. So they know exactly where they are going to end up.

Assume Ahsoka will show up at some point, which will also be awesome.

I’m excited to tear through Tales of the Jedi this weekend. Probably my favorite “era” of Star Wars - The Clone Wars remains one of my favorite tv shows of all-time. They do animation right for the most part.

Big fan. I’m finally caught up. The imperial lady is the best bad guy they’ve had in a while.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Tales of the Jedi is really good. I wish they weren't "shorts" and I wish we learned more about Sifo Dias and that whole thing.

It's funny, I initially thought she was a rebel spy. She still could be I guess, but it seems like a no all of a sudden. She does give off good guy vibes to me. I dunno. Love Andor. Rogue One was my favorite movie so no big surprise there.

Same on thinking she was actually on the Rebel side. I guess we will find out later how strong the force is with us.

 

[Grahamburn]

Cool idea for a prison.

Do we know what they’re building? Death Star components?

I think we can assume yes. But I had the same thought and was a little disappointed I didn’t immediately know what it was.

Just posting because I can't hide my pride in our Family Halloween costumes this year...Luke (me), Leia (wife), Vader (5 yr old), Yoda (3 yr old), and Chewy (Golden Retriever). I basically bribed my boys to do it with light sabers. Of course blue for me, red for 5 yr old, and green for 3 yr old.

Dad joke them all with this one:

Q: If Chewy is short for Chewbacca, Ani is short for Anakin, and Artoo is short for R2-D2, what is Luke short for?
A: A stormtrooper.

Another excellent episode of Andor this week (Ep 9). Can't wait to see the next one. Loved The Mandalorian, but this may be passing it as my favorite Star Wars series to date.

It’s sooooooo good

 

[PIK95]

Just watched the new episode. This is 100% the best Star Wars series created. I get depressed having to wait for the next episode.

 

[Capella]

Andor may be the best show I’ve seen all year. The only one I can think of off-hand that was better was Better Call Saul.

Well going in they knew exactly how it ends, It's not like they have a huge timeline to work with.

 

[Skipdog77]

The Mandalorian series makes me feel like I did when I was 7 years old watching Star Wars for the first time, which is awesome.

Andor is the Star Wars show I want as an adult, which is equally as awesome.

:grumpyoldman: Wake me up when they stop rehashing the past and come up with a new story instead of a stream of prequels. :grumpyoldman:

It would be cool to see something totally new that doesn’t tie in to existing movies/shows. Provided it’s done right.

 

[foxco]

Is it normal to despise Perrin Fertha, Mon Mothma's husband, more than any Sith Lord, imperial officer, bounty hunter or Hutt gangster? Top knot jerkface.

 

[Capella]

:grumpyoldman: Wake me up when they stop rehashing the past and come up with a new story instead of a stream of prequels. :grumpyoldman:

I mean is a 2 hour movie really a barrier to watching this show? It’s not like there were 9 movies about Cassian Andor.

It all already happened, we know the outcome, stop living in the past Disney!
I don't know who Cassian Andor is, is he related to that planet of Ewoks?
Is Disney's next planned series about Logray's rise to power?

Lol Cassian Andor is actually the guy in the Chewbacca costume.

For those that played Witcher 3, the actress playing Dedra also voiced Yennefer in that game. I thought she had sounded familiar.

 

[Battersbox]

Best show of 2022, in any genre.

But you also have to watch 20 episodes of Narcos: Mexico to really get it.

Spoiler if you’ve seen the episode:

Show is phenomenal

 

[TripItUp]

I thought Andor was way too slow through several episodes but overall I rank it behind only the Mandalorian series.

 

[CGRdrJoe]

rewatching rogue one and at 28:18 they bump into the twosome that say they are wanted men and pick a fight with luke in the of star wars

 

[thecatch]

Loved this last episode. When was the last time you saw anything like that Skarsgard monologue in a show based on a major IP? Hope Disney is learning from this.

 

[Psychopav]

Why oh why does

Spoiler

Andy Sirkis always, die?

 

[Yambag]

Andor is amazing! By far the best acting, writing and cinematography we have seen on a D+ show. You can tell that Gilroy carefully crafted this show and the use of practical sets as opposed to the volume makes it feel even grander. I can see where it might not be for everyone, especially kids, but for me, it surpassed the Mandalorian in terms of quality and storytelling.

 

[Skipdog77]

The casting of this has been excellent as well. Skarsgard and Serkis have been fantastic. Even the guy who played Davo, I was fascinated by him in his one scene.

Just a great job all around on this show.

 

[Capella]

Why oh why does

Spoiler

Andy Sirkis always, die?

That scene where he said he can’t swim and Andor said “what” before being pushed into the ocean was heartbreaking.

 

[Capella]

Luthen’s speech at the end was so good. One of the best things I’ve seen on tv in a while. I share my dreams with ghosts.

Great writing. Skarsgard is so good.

Gilroy is being kind of cagey on whether that's actually true.

I really appreciate the visual effects and tech in Andor. Feels real and in the spirit of the originals without all the cartoon bs.

I have a feeling if we do see him again, it won't be pretty and may be tragic. The Empire will want to make a public spectacle out of him (and his family?) for this. A simple execution won't do.

 

[the moops]

Such a ****ing good show. That scene with them all being so stoked to just throw themselves into the water and likely die was sick

 

[PIK95]

This week left me wanting more like no other. It went by to fast. That used to happen when Entourage was in it's prime, but this is twice as long. And that was the most bad az getaway in the history of television. Wow.

I read somewhere that the ship with the tractor beam in this episode was actually the original design of a Star Destoyer, so kind of a cool nod to the origins of Star Wars (without being fan service-y).

While I'm glad they changed the design to what we now know as a Star Destroyer, still cool to see.
