/Andor/

Fellow Anons, friends, autists, allies, adversaries. I stand before you this morning with a heavy heart. I’ve spent my life on this board. I came here as a child. And as I look around now, I realize I have almost no memories that pre-date my arrival and few bonds of affection that cleave so tightly. Through these many years, I believe I have served my constituents honorably and upheld our code of conduct. This board is a cauldron of opinions and we’ve certainly all had our patience and tempers tested in pursuit of our ideals. Disagree as we might, I am hopeful that those of you who know me will vouch for my credibility in the days to come. I stand this morning with a difficult message. I believe we are in crisis. The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective canon is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. When truth leaves us, when we let it slip away, when it is ripped from our hands, we become vulnerable to the appetite of whatever monster screams the loudest. This board's hold on the truth was finally lost on the latest episode release. What took place last season… what happened last season on Ahsoka was unprovoked retcons! Yes! Retcons! And that truth has been exiled from this board! And the monster screaming the loudest? The monster we’ve helped create? The monster who will come for us all soon enough is Dave Filoni!

No one who experienced those jungle planet scenes would state this. You are a liar and a fraud. Take her away.

It's actually this Podcast
youtu.be/psJ4D4KmhxA?si=V-M16aIIcmwlds4U&t=12537

the jungle stuff was shit but everything else has been good

Sure, retard. Just like a few years ago there was a "civil war" between Filoni/Favreau and Kathleen Kennedy. Remember that? That's when they were "saviors" of Star Wars. It was embarrassing then, and it's still embarrassing. Manchildren trying to rationalize why something is good or bad, and femoid literally who generating clicks and clout for her podcast. Death to nigger goycattle tourists from reddit.

Andor feels like it was created by adult men while all the other shows feel like fat dei women made them

The other shows are spin offs of cartoons. Andor is a spin off of a movie.

You said it doesn't insult your intelligence. All those jungle scenes did was insult your intelligence.

one hour mon mothma dancing niamos club remix

I'm not clicking but these are 2 too many women on that screenshot so I am going with "actually worse" source

I forgot how awful ahsoka was. imagine watching that after Andor finishes up

that was my plan. how bad is it actually

if this was true why did we get Acolyte?

+1

Dave Filoni

Do I need to check his early life section? Or his big ass nose hook does not ring any alarm bell for you yet.

I watched andor and mandalorian s1 and 2. it's anything else worth watching? I tried clone wars but it was horrible.

Gilroy vs Filoni how it happened

This stinks of redditors.

Skeleton Crew is fine if you just want a fun space adventure in Star Wars and like Space Pirates

Examining the establishing shots of Chandrila and Ghorman, we see they're Earth-like worlds but we have little indication of the culture of the society. Now compare to the establishing shots of Theed and Otoh Gunga. They're otherworldly and we instantly grasp the culture.

Even when we get to ground-level on the worlds in Andor it's hard to gain real insight into their cultures. We learn all about Chandrilan arranged marriage customs, and the people on Ghorman sound French and applaud weird, but can we deeply feel the unique soul of the peoples?

I'm sure the production designers made an effort to distinguish Chandrila from Ghorman architecturally, but right at this moment I cannot visualize the differences for the life of me. I don't think Ghorman strongly *feels* like anything apart from Chandrila.

It doesn't matter how high-quality the sets look if there isn't a keen aesthetic and anthropological vision like Lucas's to back them up. They look impressive in the moment but they easily fall out of memory. It's not something you can buy. Lucas was inimitably good at this.

The visual aesthetics of Naboo doesn't just shout wealth. It communicates artistic and intellectual refinement, and harmony with the natural world. It is perfectly reflective of Padme's inner qualities.

Some ignorant people say Naboo is "just Italy", since it was filmed in Italy. It's clearly not. If this was Andor, Naboo people would speak some gibberish Italian, wear some Italian clothes and eat Pizza. Because that's what space-France Ghorman in Andor was like: speak gibberish French, wear French beanies and trench coats, eat croissants and drink coffee in the street-cafes, and they make fashion clothes. And they are also literally French resistance during WW2, in case you didn't get!

You mean because its a reddit screenshot?

I unironically remember Ghorman because of the star fort design.

I thought they were the same planet for 4 episodes

Tony Gilroy drops Santiago Calatrava architecture into the Coruscant landscape even though it's completely at odds with the aesthetic of the planet. Lucas incorporated Calatrava-inspired architecture into the design of Utapau, where it reflects the unique qualities of the world.

What Gilroy does here doesn't even require any vision. He's just photographing the work of one of the most well-known living architects and jarringly inserting it into an environment others before him had to actually design.

He's not only unable to conceptualize environments that rise anywhere close to the standard set by Lucas, he actively degrades the few environments he inherits, because he doesn't understand what goes into it.

It feels like the prequel Coruscant exists as one of those distant backgrounds in a video game that you can never travel to.

As much as Rogue One isn't as good as Andor, the battle on Scariff has to be top tier in terms of skirmishes depicted in movies and books for SW.

This is true even for the locations that are set directly in the midst of the cityscape. Even given the opportunity for window views, Gilroy's tendency is to fog or obscure the alien cityscape where Lucas always opts for expansive fantasy vistas.That Gilroy has to set these scenes on Coruscant seems like an inconvenience to him that he tries to find ways to work around. I don't know what else people would expect. What do you think it means when he says he never liked Star Wars? You think he hadn't seen it? It isn't his thing.

Andor

Boring.

Ahsoka

Slop.
Star Wars is 100% dead

Why do the hallways of the Senate Building in Andor suddenly look like the interiors on Kamino? At most you'd expect the intrusion of Imperial motifs. The answer is that Gilroy is drawing on the aesthetic of the new exterior architecture, but the design language is confused.

You can see the palette of the Senate chamber itself seems to have been adjusted to match. It has a strangely bright, aquatic feel to it now. I'm not sure why the transition to Empire transformed the capitol into King Triton's court.

soon kino will end

Because it pushes Kennedy's vision of tearing down any male figure in Star Wars out of spite for having Lucas tell her no for three decades or whatever the fuck her problem is.
Filoni doesn't care so long as he gets to get Ahsoka and clone wars references.
I don't know how anyone got past episode 4 of mando, they just kept talking and talking and talking and going to shit

One is a boilerplate flowery political speech which boils down to "Lies are bad." The other is still being talked about 20 years later because it features two incredibly original characters (Jar Jar and Palpatine) delivering immortal lines that only one man could write.

Are you really telling me that when we let truth go by the wayside, we cede the narrative to whichever person yells the loudest? Wow, I've never heard it put quite that way before. These writers are incredible...This is literally just regurgitating language and rhetoric that you'd have to be a zombie not to have absorbed in some fashion over the past 10 years. Then they put it in the Star Wars show so you'd clap. It's just not original! There should be more than this.

And to be clear, the AOTC scene includes basic lines like: "I love democracy. I love the Republic." Yet everyone can hear these lines in their head! That's proof of how well-constructed the scene is on a *cinematic* basis. Neither scene is great literature, but one thinks it is! These could be perfectly acceptable lines for the purpose of supporting a cinematic narrative, but everyone involved obviously believes this writing is itself the accomplishment. But here I can say objectively, it is neither saying anything new nor saying it in an innovative way.

So where am I left with this speech as the centerpiece and, really, only matter of real interest in the episode? If I'm not impressed by the literary qualities of the writing, then I have little else to cling onto aside from how terribly Important it all is.

Andor season 2 is absolute time wasting schlock and i dare any motherfucker to prove me wrong.
these shitty 9 episodes couldve been distilled down into pretty damn good 2-3 episodes, but disney had to add hours and hours of fucking nonsense to bloat this into 9 episodes.
the entire grain planet arc was a waste of time, if you cut it out completely, nothing of value would be lost in the show.

Andor season 2 is absolute time wasting schlock

everything disney has shit out in the last decade has been time wasting schlock

We don't know the conclusion yet, come back tomorrow to witness either maximum rage or maximum praise.

lets copy paste french resistance from ww2 but change the french language a little bit

low effort writing, creative bankruptcy.

lets also add several lesbian scenes

tiresome.

why did ando say he was stuck upside down in the middle of space? what was his reference point?

Might as well say that everything post episode 3 and pre episode 4 is pointless since we all know what happens. The point is to add details to the world building.

At least they are now willing to off a ranjeeta with a taste of pussy on screen.

Or you could compare it to the Senate scene in Episode I. There's an ongoing atrocity on Naboo, and the Trade Federation is lying about it and manipulating procedure to stall action. So the previously docile Queen becomes angry and makes a shocking declaration.

It's a much shorter scene but there are actually more dynamics at play: There's not just the activation of the Queen. There's the betrayal of an ally, Valorum's impotent frustration and resigned defeat, Palpatine whispering in the Queen's ear and cannily watching events unfold. And all this serves to directly advance the plot and propel us to the third act where the Queen returns to Naboo to finally fight the Federation on her own terms. It covers a lot of the same thematic territory—plus more—but it's a much tighter and more satisfying story.

See the Death Star through the atmosphere of a Planet still gives me Goosebumps

an entire episode in the jungle where they stand 10 feet from each and shoot their pistols

youtu.be/gne8v9aj45w?t=31
i just cant cope with modern holywood anymore.

Wilmon is one of many characters who is ill-defined even on the basic level of an archetype. I guess he's The Kid. But why was he huffing gas fumes with Saw Gerrera? I guess that was a casualty of the truncated seasons. I bet that would have been a fun arc. It's funny how he shows up on Yavin later and they're like, "Ah yeah, the gang's back together again!" I can barely remember the relationship Bix and Cassian have to this kid. I felt more when Tarpals and Jar Jar reunited in The Clone Wars. Now there's a history.

the problem is they didnt add details or world building.
lesbians on a date, the grain planet, half of the entire season is just filler nonsense that adds *NOTHING* to the universe/story/lore.

this thing doesn't have any room for an engine but it can do warp speed, has artificial gravity an arsenal of weapons

Wilmon is

a self insert by the writer.
one of the writers name is wilmon.
pathetic and cringe.

It showed the oppression of the empire. Enough that chuds are still seething about it.

Oh really? The guy that has been purposefully shitting on the series' continuity for almost two decades now is like that? I would have never seen that coming!

10 minutes out of 9 episodes.
the rest of the screentime was lesbians eating, eating fruit in the jungle, or looking at grain.

Even if that was true all these films and shows are still badly written dogshit. Can none of these people write?

There isn't a strong character-based reason for any of the radical shifts in Syril's outlook--especially given how much screentime has been devoted to the character over two seasons. In this episode you can even see the writers throw up their hands and land on "He's confused."

I actually like the actor and I think he's done his best to bring more to the character than is actually on the page. But his character arc makes as much sense and is about as strongly supported as Bix's or Cassian's--which is to say, not very.

Obviously I understand the stock character arc he's being put through. But it all ends in clichés like Syril stumbling in a daze as he witnesses a massacre unfold around him in slow motion. Stuff like this is as much justification as we get, and it's not original or interesting.

The massacre itself unfolds and is shot in a very boring, standard way. There's no mastery of tonal montage as in the Order 66 sequence. We spend more time with the recurring Ghorman characters here than with the Jedi in that sequence, but I couldn't care less about the Ghormans.

One problem is that at no point is Syril's P.O.V. taken seriously. His belief in law & order is portrayed as shallow and childish and totally self-serving. He's capable of rationalizing anything to suit his ego. So why exactly is he so affected by the events on Ghorman?

There's certainly nothing in his character that makes his extreme, physically violent reactions in this episode make dramatic sense. He remains a caricature trapped in a morality play that lacks real depth but which many critics have convinced themselves is politically important.

Hey, at least it's bigger than that stupid ass ship spock was driving in nu trek to save his home planet

yeah its literally member berries dogshit.

It's a much shorter scene but there are actually more dynamics at play: There's not just the activation of the Queen.

Yeah no shit. Because it's activation of Palpatine, who secretly contols good chunk of the Senate, plan. So everything had to be staged.

none of these women should be working at lucas film except for creating fabrics for costumes.

Watch Acolyte first, so you can become fully desensitized through the most bottom of the barrel tumblr / ao3 fan fiction tier writing.

WHAT
WAS
HER
PROBLEM!?!?!?!?

What are they even gonna do the the last 3 episodes? What's there to wrap up?

Be me

Watch the child anakin movie

Sound of WOMPWOMPWOMPWOMPWOMP for straight 15 min during the boonta eve race

Is that the real sound of autism I'm hearing? Is this why you keep sperging over every little things?

I am sorry your ADHD brain are fried due to dopamine overburn, you are somehow on Anon Babble and don't understand the concept of world building. Bet you watch movies and wonder why don't they just skip to the climax

Mons family
Luthen
More stuff to align between Rogue One and Andor

everyone except cassian dying
direct lead into rogue one

defending trash by saying you have ADHD if you critisize said trash, stopped working several years ago.
try again.
fat indian lesbians eating dinner isnt world building.

it is for me!

retarded opinions dont count.

I assumed the next we saw him he would be crazy. Nope hes the same fag from before. What was the point of that plot point with saw then?

Character moments aren't world building

Every SINGLE moment MUST be world building

Nah anon. You have the retarded opinion. If you are so cooked, just wait for the show to end, then you can watch a supercut and have all the details dumped into your head.

Bix, Luthen, Mon, Saw huffing more gas, Leia reveal, Galen plotting with the pilot, because that's what started the whole Cassian journey in RO.

Fagloni is a spiteful talentless hack, of course he'd cockblock anyone better than him.

Is jar jar going to appear? He should still be in the Senate at this time, right?

Rightwingbros? even the antiwoke king liked it

youtube.com/watch?v=9XgMEfOdRPI

mads

would be a whole lot better than palps or vader cameo-ing

Disney finally paid me

a good director would make 2-3 awesome episodes out of these 9 trash episodes, including world and character building.
its called skill.
there isnt any at disney anymore.

jej how much did he get paid

Just go watch TikTok man. Your brain is fried if you think you can squeeze 3 distinct arcs into 2 hours.

palps or vader

Been there done that. Wont be as impressive as druk cameo.

It is more likely his viewer count was dropping due to the current political climate and he has to pivot. He isn't the only one to do so if you haven't noticed.

squeeze 3 distinct arcs into 2 hours.

easily.
have you ever watched a movie, anon?

Give me an example

His viewer count dropping because he start begging random donation for his shit movie. That's why.

Pulp Fiction.

Both could be true at the same time.

This show feels like a bunch of californian millennials tried to mimic the dark gritty era of the late 2000s, but they are too much of a bunch of pussies to commit to it so it's just boring.
You'd think this is would double down on the military aspect of Star Wars, instead of telling the boring story of a fem Glup Shitto

Shes French.

The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Distinct

Just a couple of guys being dudes

We all know you have brain rot and cannot put your smart phone down for a couple of hours to enjoy some kino. No need to throw a tantrum. We get it. Now go watch another ishowspeed short video for the next six hours.

That is because its Disney+

Star Slurper sending others to Tiktok

lmao

They tried to show SA and a bunch of chuds blew their heads over it. I think they are pretty committed to it.

SA

Oh wow, a lame rape attempt, that sure is hardcore.
What is war compared to that

but they are too much of a bunch of pussies to commit to it

You will get fired if you don't follow the 'creative' guideline made by tptb

Because the artificial gravity in his ship somehow got inverted.

Bros, I'm gonna miss Andor... I guess it's better for the show to end on kino high note than to extend and inevitably go to shit ala Filoni.

you are literally gobbling up retarded disney slop and you direct people to watch shorter slop.

a good director would make 2-3 awesome episodes

Lord of the rings trilogy director's cut said hi

Lame

But people threw a hissy fit over it

Why are you samefagging?

California

ishowspeed

Holy rent free lol

Because they are a bunch of pussies who think rape is the very worst sin you can commit, the same people who went

WOW MON MKTHMA SAID THE WORD GENOCIDE THIS IS ART

Andor is what a millennial thinks is "grit"

No, it was because all the other anti woke channels clique (Nerdrotic, ENDYMION, Geeks + Gamers, Snarky Jay etc.) liked it.

So he couldn't stand out as the only one to go against it.

Are we going to see him??

Yes it does. It's just using old technology from a galaxy far far away. You wouldn't understand it.

So the kind of people who still bother Star Wars are the kind that pay attention to eceleb drama

millennial

It's called millenial writing for a reason, anon. They are far worse than boomer, X, heck even silent generation when it comes to story telling.

They literally did though, anon. What are you talking about? Either you didn't watch the show or you are just trolling.

I see no urgent problem, but as always I salute the provocative exchange of shitposts.

women talking Star Wars

The same people

I don't think they are the same people anon. It was the chuds throwing a fit about it.

It's called a shoot out, anon. It's what westerners have been doing in cinematography for almost 60 years now. You might actually be trolling.

ive said it before and ill say it again

GOD BLESS KATHLEEN KENNEDY

Thesis, please.

No because the tonal clash would be hilarious.
Andor is all dark and bleak and does its best to pretend the Empire is scary and not a bunch of incompetent clowns lead by a goofy wizard who gets genuine joy out of being evil.

Wilmon

Is he the one that gave Saw the Rhybo gas? I can't remember

take your chudaganda and fuck off

I hate his fucking voice

chud chud chud

So it's only american millennials watching this

"Jar Jar is the Key to all of this. If we can get Jar Jar working we can..."

I stand by my hate for Andor before I watched it all and realized it was kino

typical fucking chud, every single time.

Why would Bix Nood leave him?

I thought he'd come out after Mon Mothma's speech and declare Syril a hero who died for great justice and promise to put all the Ghormans in camps in his name.

Anon, this is not The Way.

They are the same people, pussified millennials who live in a cloud made of rainbows, so coddled that for them the worst thing that can happen is rape since the very concept of war is alien to them.
Likely why tbere's no war in this show and just endless politicians speaking, it's all they know, all talk and no action.

if anything, lotr proves him right.

God those helmets look stupid

Yavin 4 is a forest moon and it's not a planet.

Rogue One isn't as good as Andor. But it is still a great work. Andor is just an amazing work. It's just comparing Apples to Oranges. Both are nutrious, healthy, and flavorful. But have different benefits and tastes. But ultimately, they are both enjoyable fruits that are beneficial to humans. (Just don't eat too many Apple Seeds).

If you follow real world plot, he will name the satanic building 'Syril' and build his statue in the middle of that massacre place. Courtesy of uncle Harlo.

It isn't

If you chopped LOTR into episodes, it will be 10-12 episodes. So it's easily 2 seasons if you also want to make the hobbit trilogy into episodes.

Why is this show making a big deal out of Mon Mothma when she's the retard who caused the Empire to live on, for the New Republic to be utterly incompetent and eventually get destroyed?
She's basically just Leia but with half the IQ and incapable of fighting, a bureaucratic politician, exactly the person who shouldn't lead during war time.

Andor

Boring.

he doesn't know!

He's the worst character and actor on the show and you know he has plot armor because he's the diversity hire.

Probably gonna get his own spin off and all too

it's a Tony Gilroy makes Star Wars and everyone dies episode

they're an entire different architecture style, stop posting

they both white!

fuck off retard

No I don't, I watch Star Wars for the war.

What are you talking about, anon? What do you have against WilMON?

Sacre Blue!

I mean Andor is a decent show in bad setting. Because it fails to answer why things happen.
There is enough lore established to see that for the most part things make no sense.

Why evil space wizard needs the super weapon what is he going to fight ?

Why can't he just take the planet by force ?

He literary marched military to space church in his capital and gunned down everyone there and there is no uproar about it.

Why a planet with token population of 1 million people with some luxury textile industry has political power. It's like a 0,001% of Corouscant Population. It's like a village in a space scale.

lets translate this

I like action and lasers and light swords and jedis because im a man child

Series is totally over

credits roll

midway through the credits, we look back at Jyn and Cassian, staring down the death star laser as it approaches them

Speeder sound appraches

"GET IN!"

Bix pulls the guys into a speeder

they outrun the Death Star explosion

a ship is waiting for them

Luthen is inside

"Hey Cassian, couldn't keep your hands off the new girl?"

He's probably going to die tomorrow anyway. He's the remnant of DEI hire. They kill cintra, another DEI lgbt hire already. Can't see why not with this one pulling the white woman mixer to also be put off.

No, I want Star Wars to, for once, depict war properly.

based fagloni shitting on trandorcels

what a piece of shit
jesus

Andor is about the politics and behind the scenes of war. War isn't just about what happens on the frontline anon.

Can we move on from Empire vs Rebellion after this show is over?
The only way I'd want to see this conflict back is if they made a show of the New Republic curb stomping an increasingly weak Empire.

Imperial droid workers coming to your shores, taking your Ghorman spider trades?
Workers who don’t sleep, don’t tire, don’t age.
I say, the Emperor is either blind or a droid lover.
Just like his apprentice.

No. Because the sequel is fucked. It has been so long since we had Empire vs Rebellion anyway. What was the last few shows?
Mando?
Ashoka?
Acolyte?

War isn't just about what happens on the frontline

Yes it is, it's another thing that this show is made for the kind of people who'd have a panic attack if they were sent to one.

Anon, what the fuck are you talking about? Wilmon's actor is perfectly fine. He plays the role of a trouble youth growing up under imperial oppression amazingly. You've gotta be trolling. Also what the fuck are you even babbling about with DEI? Have you not watched the show?

Yes it is,

Spoken like a child who needs Typical

The NR retaking Coruscant, show that and I'll be happy.

No you see I'm an adult because I like it when shows feel like watching the news

Anon. No one is forcing you to watch this show. Please wake up

I can just vision thousands of chuds allover the planet scream and wails about how a rackety speeder owned by rebels can escape a planet killer

I thought your daddy Trump killed DEI. Why are chuds still talking about it?

hopefully Andor paves the way to more adult Star Wars, and yeah I agree it would be cool to see more open war, depicted more realistically. But without a great story its just meaningless.

Large scale war and set pieces are saved mostly for movies. I doubt we will get anymore "wars" in Star Wars.

#TariffTheGhorman
#GhormanArrogance

They won't make open war, that doesn't appeal to the modern American. just utter bore where nothing happens so they can go

damn, its just like irl

I want to give Mon Mothma another child

Because open war without plot is for kids.

Too bad Disney only hires millennials for writing. I rather have no writing than the stories Disney shits out.

for kids

Like Star Wars?

The only thing that is missing from Andor is color. Everything looks so dull and boring and grey.

Well, Obi-Wan did call it the dark times.

the last remains of the Slop Wars fanbase is a general that's just screeching about the hevking unwholesome chuderinos

It's been a joy seeing this franchise fall apart in real time.

THING is popular or acclaimed

contrarian retards immediately start spamming every single thread where anons that like the show just want to discuss it

I bet they're the same filthy kikes spamming BBC porn on Anon Babble.

Disney has owned this franchise for a decade and yet you are still here.

I would say Andor deals with pretty mature themes.

I’m convinced Filoni is a genuine autist

If Force Sniff a thing?

Is this true bros?

Yes, it's entertaining watching Disney grow increasingly desperate with this has been franchise.

He should have tried choking her.

You don't understand, being contrarian IS their personality, if they can't be against the popular thing, their being will collapse. Case in point

Andor is what a teenager thinks is a mature show.
It's like those people who said Nolan's Batman was adult.

this is true. i pitched my Caravan of Courage reboot and Filloni shit all over it. He also raped me.

Being a contrarian isn't a personality anon.

imagine the kino if Syril realized he's a jedi here and force choked Daedra to death

contrarian

The contrarian act would be to continue engaging with Star Wars in 2025

We need a drama strictly about the Empire and how ruthless it is

Case in point, you being here despite not liking star wars.

Based Filoni killing Star Wars over his OC donut steel, he's a hack but I respect the autism

lil mystery meat brocoli bro fucking two white woman simultaneously is what he's saying

tfw no uppity bitch to choke when I'm mad about the genocide she's been hiding from me

Ruthless? They are a bunch of incompetent morons who only lasted 20 years in charge despite the Republic being thousands of years old, and were defeated by a group of ragtag rebels.

but no rape depicted and we should make the empire seem like the good guys actually because im evil

Yet another Andor Isn't Shit We Promise thread

Not watching anything Star Wars until Disney gives up all attachment to the property. Simple as.

*blows up your planet*

Every now and then I pop up to see what Disney has shat out, TLJ was crap but damn if the discussion around it wasn't fun.

To where is the question you got to ask. Anything post-OT, unless you do something like 1,000 jump, gets caught up in the Sequels. Which I doubt you want in general and in any case is basically just Republic vs Empire. Maybe you go far back in the past? I never watched Acolyte or read anything else they may have done, but Disney's discount Old Republic with the High Republic is a deadend to avoid. Something in the Prequel-era? Maybe you can tell more stuff there, but you risk Star Wars being very static if it is just confided to the Prequels and OT. All this gets down to how badly Disney fucked everything up with the Sequels, and to a lesser extent, failed with their era before the Prequels.

She want it

Large scale war and set pieces are saved mostly for movies. I doubt we will get anymore "wars" in Star Wars.

Filoni said assoka season 2 is a giant space battle. Its probably why we didnt get cool battles in andor.

You have been in this thread for over 20 minutes.

Andor also sucks and is a complete bastardization of what Star Wars is supposed to be. If Gilroy wanted to write some Stalinist fanfic he should've done an original movie or series, not use Star Wars as a host to promote his bullshit.

Nothing can top peak simian reveal

What is Star Wars supposed to be?

*blows up your empire*

Can pretentious people on here please stop acting like Andor is the only way to do Star Wars? It’s a good show, in fact I would definitely agree with the people saying that it’s one of the best Star Wars stories overall, but it isn’t the only good Star Wars story ever told, yes even in the Disney era, and not everything needs to be just like it. Andor is basically Star Wars for people who don’t like Star Wars, and that’s fine for the story it’s aiming to tell. It’s a more adult story, and that’s fantastic. But Star Wars is also fun adventure with magic space wizards, and I personally don’t want every Star Wars story to be just like Andor. It’s a franchise that can tell stories more aimed at kids and some more aimed at older audiences. No one single person is going to magically fix Disney Star Wars when the wider problem really feels like it’s Disney as a whole. Perhaps this is a hot take right now that will get me downvoted into oblivion, but I’m just really tired of the people coming in here right now and acting like Andor is the only good Star Wars story that has ever existed. That just isn’t true.

virgin proto-resistance

chad proto-imperial

its such a kino story when you think about it

I think it would work if they just have it be Ian McDiarmid making an appearance and acting all humble and respectable.
That one scene where the Ghorman guy talks about how he thinks the Emperor is being undermined by a shadow government of groups like the ISB adds a alot of context to the series on how people actually view the empire

right aligned text

shalom

niggas ain't sniff enuff rhydo

what is the squid game guy doing here? DEI hire for asian market?

There are more stories that aren't Andor compared to stories that are Andor. Ashoka is next and the "next" Andor like series hasn't even been rumored or greenlit yet.

we can't put white men in it

what's the closest minority to white?

Je-

no not them

fine, asians then

Might as well say that everything post episode 3 and pre episode 4

s02 - ep 01&02, ep 03&04 & ep 07 are so slow, it was a stupid idea to have 4 finales in 1 season, the wedding and especially the rave were so egregious, they could have cut that in 2/3s and it would not have lost its affect

Because Santiago Calatrava architecture has become low-hanging stock "Sci-Fi location shooting location" bait material ever since Disney used it in Tomorrowland and since Coruscant is the "Generic Sci-Fi City of the Future Planet" at a casual glance, it felt really easy to just follow Tomorrowland and Doctor Who's lead.

Don't lump the rest of Asia with korea and china. They are far worse than the jews, nigger and indians combined at this point.

This entire season was a misstep. Things don't need to line up with Rogue One. They could've given each character a satisfying conclusion to their Andor stuff, ending things with a few years to go before Rogue One.

no. there isn't. disagreements like this happen all the time in every walk of life.

Can't wait to see chuds come crawling back for Ryan Gosling

they are so woke and gay I hate them so much

Sequels aren't canon

He literary marched military to space church in his capital and gunned down everyone there and there is no uproar about it.

Uh you forgot how Palpatine orchestrated a huge conspiracy that painted the Jedi as traitors of the republic that tried to establish Martial Law?

Star Wars was always a work about an ancient wizard warrior class spearheading a rebellious cause against a tyrannical imperial empire. Which also, just so happened to utilize ancient wizard warriors too, but it was only behind the scenes. Most people, in the setting, had no idea that the force was even real.

I would agree that acting like Andor is the only way is wrong, but I have seen more of an issue with people acting like Andor is not a way to do it. Unless you are some purist that just wants the OT films and nothing, including extended media from those films, I do not see what some people actually want to come out from Star Wars. It is often so vague what certain people want out of Star Wars, to the point it just seems like they want the same thing over and over or all they like about Star Wars is just superficial iconography. As you get at, Star Wars should be able to do things that are aimed a at broad audience (both in interest in Star Wars and ages), things that are very much geared towards kids, things that are geared towards adults etc. The problem is Star Wars is in a state where the prevailing attitude seems to be that everything Star Wars has to be aimed at and liked by everyone - which partly comes down to Disney own attempt when they brought Lucasfilm, and partly down to some people who stake too much of their identity to Star Wars and then loose their minds if it does not conform to their specific want.

when do the episodes go live?

in 30 hours

So Star Wars is technically Wizard Slop?

>Why evil space wizard needs the super weapon what is he going to fight ?

The ongoing rebellion? Now I sort of agree if the point is that there are, seemingly, no mass planetary rebellions as say in the Clone Wars - the rebels are a mobile movement not bound to a specific planet. Yet, even then ANH gets across the Imperial mentality of trying to cower people into submission through fear of the Death Star. You have the idea expressed in ANH that the systems may rebel without the Senate and Imperial bureaucracy to placate and manipulate, with the answer to that being they will not out of fear of the Death Star.

Inb4 Palpatine was running TOR also.

To us wizard means good.

HAN SINGULAR ACTIVATE!!!1

calibrate your enthusiasm.

Nothing, just let Star Wars end, it's run it's course

It's actually space ship kino

I haven’t watched Andor yet but if it is getting the Mouse’s panties in this much of a twist it must actually have something to say that isn’t just toy sales

You don't say, anon....

Why a planet with token population of 1 million people with some luxury textile industry has political power. It's like a 0,001% of Corouscant Population. It's like a village in a space scale.

Little did you know, the spider was the indigenous creature to that world, and the Ghorman occupying it was a slaver from the other side of the galaxy. Torturing the indigenous by forcing them to shit out all of their web from their asses all day long. But alas! There's new invader in town now. Get on with the current story, CHUDS.

Best I can give you is another 15 years of Disney floundering around with Star Wars, followed by another major push after those 15 years.

there's still a lot of the universe and time line to flesh out

I liked season one but I'm five eps into season two and it feels really flat and boring

The Ghorman massacre never happened, but it should have.

Wait, the Ghormans sound French to you ?

By far the worst part of S2 and even S1 is the first 3 episodes of S2. 1-3 are a complete waste of time - dragged-out, provide nothing substantively new, do not move the show meaningfully forward (either as a season story or for the characters) - and the issues become more apparent as you work your way through the next arcs. The main thing to come from it is the establishment of Ghorman at the conference that could have been done in some completely rewritten arc, and Brasso's death that ultimately get brushed over with the time skip. The only real good part of S2 is 7-9. 4-6 are necessary as the foundation for 7-9, but it is 7-9 that are the actual payoff and 4-6 suffer from being rushed in parts.

Someone post that pic with a guy pointing a blaster at him.

Like what?

The structure is based off French. Apparently, it can seem weird to French speakers as their brain sort of recognises it as being French despite being gibberish.

like the trillions of years before a new hope, and the trillions after

Why did the Ghor attack the innocent Empire? They are terrorists.
The only good Ghor, is a dead Ghor.
Isn't it odd how the Ghor love bugs so much?

Asians in Star Wars is good. Feels very far away.

I would simply not go to a "peaceful" protest armed with blasters and bombs.

calm down satan

I love PNN

The future is dead due to the sequels, and the past is autistic fantasy shit between god-like entities that would filter almost everyone out.

Some impressive digits in this thread.

When he just talks and doesn't choke you

it really pisses me off that dave filoni at the end of assoka season one has her going to a new galaxy so dave can play with his own toys there and make nu-nu-wars, WHEN WE COULD OF HAD A BETTER VERSION OF NU-NU-NU WARS made by competent people

and then they dimensional flip to the marvel universe using the force to ask iron man and thanos for help. the end.

that's actually based lmao

This. Anyone falling for the Andor propaganda is a fool

it is kino, anyone who cant see it is stupid.
