Andor (Disney+) • Page 56

If you want something with similar themes? Star Trek: Deep Space 9

 

Babysitting my nieces all week. The finishing up a move. I have no idea when I’m actually going to get a chance to watch the final arc. Ugh.

 

Not as a good a show, but I started rewatching Ahsoka for the first time tonight.

 

Sounds like your nieces are gonna see that final arc then.

 

The oldest (four) watches Rebels (seems to young, but I wasn’t upset), so why not I guess.

Edit: I can get her opinion on the difference between Mon Mothma’s speech in Rebels vs Andor.

 

If they’re that young, they won’t even really remember what they see. Haha

 

Yea she only half pays attention to what’s on the tv anyway. Though she’d probably get interested if Chopper or Sabine made a cameo.

 

Happy Final Andor Day

 

I'm taking a risk wading in here as I'm not fully caught up yet, but the first 4 episodes have been absolutely fantastic.

I know some people would find it as boring as hell, but the dialogue in the empire meeting scenes are just gripping to me. Those scenes have been some of the best in the show. It's just so real, and gritty, and impactful compared to some of the other more 'fun' star wars pieces.

I don't want ALL star wars to be like this, as it'll create that swing cycle we've had in superhero movies between dark and brooding and oh, people want fun again! but this is damn good. There's definitely a place for different tones and I hope over the next decade or so, the creatives allow that ying and yang to happen and we get these more 'adult' pieces.

EDIT - I am WAY not caught up. I thought 7 / 8 / 9 dropped today not 10 / 11 / 12.

 

I want all Star Wars to be of this quality, but that doesn’t include tone.

 

I think Skeleton Crew is a great example of this. I thought it was super well done and a lot of care was put into it, with a great story. But it had a totally different tone and energy.

 

Skeleton Crew was alright. I’d point to Rebels as a stronger show that’s pretty distinct from Andor.

 

Some Q&A with Tony and Diego, plus some guests along the way. I’m only 10 minutes in so I’m not sure if there is anything noteworthy. So far they played Amon’s speech since Genevieve joined via zoom and are now talking about it.

Let’s go!

 

Fuck man this is rough already

 

Of course my internet is acting up now.

 

Nvm they're actually doing it!

 

Meero's possibly grief driven recklessness is the reason the rebels initially learned about the Death Star And Erso!

 

Ep10 damn damn damn I’m sad

 

Starting final episode ITS BEEN AN HONOR

 

I fucking love this shit

 

Man, screw Bail.

 

Bail Organa is kind of a dick lol

 

Nemik's posthumous manifesto spreading and that voiceover was perfect

 

I want an animated show set probably after the Ahsoka show with Hera and Bix as the main characters and for their kids to be best friends. Call it 2 moms, 0 dads. Uncle Chopper is there with B2.
