Been talking to the Jedi, have ya mate?
That's a bloody outrage, it is! I'm going to take this all the way to the Emperor! OI! EMPEROR! SHEEV! I GOT SOMETHIN TO REPORT TO YA!
THE SCARIFIAN DEATH STAR OOOOOOOO
Don't try to frighten us with your sorcerer's ways. Your devotion to that
ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes,
or given you clairvoyance enough to find the Rebel's hidden base.
That line was pretty based, actually. I have not watched Star Wars since the 1990s, though. I'm straight.
You never see people sitting around watching a projector in old star wars
WHO ARE YOU
teleports behind you
Start doing this.
It's not real star wars without boring staff meetings
Jinn, my Arachnidussy
I don't remember him being so flamboyant in Rogue One
How cringe is it he done the chin thing
That's because he's groveling to superiors in Rogue One. In Andor, he's the superior in every scene.
Every single scene in ISB Headquarters was pure kino, it hits that same spot early GoT Small Council meetings did. Bureaucracy as drama where good actors can use internal politics, ambition, backstabbing and personal agendas drive the narrative forward in a realistic and gripping way. Actual TV.
need ya to help me build a star wars, mate
what's the joke
Hey why don't we see the ISB in anything else other than "Rogue One" and "Andor"? Is this explained in any of the animated stuff, or anywhere else for that matter?
He completely shits on every other Star Wars villain. He is so awesome.
He completely shits on every other Star Wars villain.
kek, no
Zesty Imperials are kino, who knew?
you would have to be autistic to like this bit part character so much that he tops your star war villain list. He is not that entertaining even if his feats are impressive.
I like to think they were all on the Death Star.
Reminder all nu wars is faggot shit
unlimited power
The ISB screwed up massively so it's possible they had a lot of their power removed after Rogue One.
Jewish subversion and Star Wars go so well together
From Rogue One onwards the Empire is fighting open land and space battles with the Rebels, so the spooks get relegated to background support while the army and navy run the show.
Dreams are made, winding through my heaaaAAAAAAAAD
she didn't know he was going to finger her beforehand, isn't this a little bit like rape?
possibly axed as an agency after yularen got blown up on the Death Stur
Well, Andor just gave us a pretty good reason for them to get sidelined. They fucked up so bad that they didn't notice one of their senior members was a spy for maybe a decade and he leaked the Death Star not even because of access he got because of that position, but because another supervisor that was a favourite of the head of the agency was hording priviliged information that she wasn't cleared for.
As far as other content goes, there's also a long-running rivalry between them and the Inquisitors. The ISB is a very effective, but traditional intelligence agency descended from the late Republic's equivalent spooks. The Inquisitors are Vader's jedi-hunters and a bit more down the fucked up Sith lite cult path for their primary operatives. They don't get along for pretty obvious reasons and they'd probably make the most of any diminishment of the ISB to assert their claim to turf.
Well after Rogue One and the death star it becomes a full on civil war, so the law enforcement shit takes a backseat to actual military intelligence which the navy or army probably do. ISB is still around though
They failed so much they got dismantled
Every single scene in ISB Headquarters was pure kino, it hits that same spot early GoT Small Council meetings did
That's an astute observation.
They can show stormtroopers doing evil shit but seeing how the decision to do evil shit was made is much more interesting from a character perspective.
The callousness of bureaucrats who (mostly) don't get their hands dirty with the details is how this shit happens.
I like to think they were all on the Death Star.
The Death Star was a naval installation.
The ISB and Navy don't get along (none of the agencies do, which is deliberate, like in every dictatorship), the ISB has an upper hand while the rebellion is young and just scattered insurgents and dissidents but once they unite and form an army, navy and "airforce", it's a military problem and the ISB lose influence but also, the story just isn't about them any more.
They don't get along for pretty obvious reasons and they'd probably make the most of any diminishment of the ISB to assert their claim to turf
The inquisitors don't want ISB turf, they hate doing the boring stuff.
They want the ISB to know who's boss.
The inquisitors have no official authority, just fear of what will happen if you stand up to them. That's how they like it.
They need ISB to exist and even be powerful, they just want the ISB to be afraid and submissive to them.
KALKYTE mate
