November 23, 20223 yr Was ol dude and ol girl bout to kiss ?? I sense some good acting chemistry. Like she ain’t gotten any in a while and it’s this dude she hot btw
November 23, 20223 yr "The empire is a disease, that thrives in darkness. It is never more alive than when we sleep." JEEESSUUS. I think I'm ready to fight now, too.
November 23, 20223 yr lol, was searching andor gifs. this one made me chuckle they actin or did they get zapped? one guy missed the mark.
November 23, 20223 yr next occasion i get to dance im for sure breaking out the cassian. hell maybe at half time friday.
November 23, 20223 yr So I just binged this in the last 48 hours so couldn’t follow the whole thread but HOLY SHIT BALLS! Best show I’ve watched in a long time, Star Wars or otherwise. I’m pretty convinced that Marva is, in fact, dead. But some of these monologues in the last few episodes are just epic - better than any others across the whole SW canon. My only question about the finale is whether the black worker guy who was acting shady about getting intelligence about Cass coming back for the funeral - was he really trying to sell out Cass to the ISB or was he intentionally misdirecting them? The other theme that is refreshing and relevant is the sheer ineptitude of the empire and ISB through arrogance and hubris. That adds a layer of plausibility to a) how the good guys can defeat seemingly insurmountable odds tactically but also to b) how the fascist and authoritarian empire decides it has to crush resistance and at the same time the resistance finds footing in the belief it might “win” in the end. So. Damn. Good.

November 23, 20223 yr nah fam.. he was snitchin like a mofo. and he got the stitches for it.Yeah I think so, too. Karma made him deaded. Also explains the intentional shot of Cass pausing when he recognized him and realized where who he was with when he got kilt.

November 23, 20223 yr she's not really dead if we find a way to remember her. like a giant fucking funeral hologram.
November 23, 20223 yr Spoiler**** so did a fuckload of people die so six people can get away?Is this your first rebellion?
November 23, 20223 yr I questioned Marva’s death mostly because they had Fiona Shaw as the actress and there seemed to be more meat on that bone with the character for her to work with. Nothing really narratively pointed that way, just casting. Welp, asked and answered. She got her big speech and killed it. So long Marva. Godspeed.One of the main criticisms I have seen of the show is that Andor himself is the least interesting part. I can’t really refute that point, but everything else around him is so damn good, I can easily look past it. The show is much more about the rebellion and is possibly misnamed, but you needed to sell the show. I’m sure Season 2 will be much more of the same where Andor is not the most important or interesting part.Great season 1 and I look forward to Season 2.
November 24, 20223 yr nah fam.. he was snitchin like a mofo. and he got the stitches for it.Yea. Remember he is the guy who corned Cassian for money back in one of the first couple episodes. That’s what he is ultimately all about. Also the music at the beginning. Basically adding new instruments at the beginning of every episode to where ultimately it’s a complete piece…with the drum (of war). Which you get again in the funeral march. Really well thought out.
November 24, 20223 yr Is this your first rebellion?The craptasic Last Jedi did the same thing. Just with a fuckton shittier exposition around it.
November 24, 20223 yr Popular Post Also. Like the fight Mon Mothma picked with her husband knowing she is being listened to. Air cover for money movement.
November 24, 20223 yr Author Also. Like the fight Mon Mothma picked with her husband knowing she is being listened to. Air cover for money movement. Lucas couldn’t have written something that smart and if he had the idea, he’d have a preceding scene where Mon tells someone about it so the audience knows what’s going on.
November 24, 20223 yr Also the guy who plays Pegla (bell ringer gets em the ship set up at end). That’s Jamie Tartt’s dad in Ted Lasso. He’s guested in two really great television shows lately. Lucas couldn’t have written something that smart and if he had the idea, he’d have a preceding scene where Mon tells someone about it so the audience knows what’s going on. Right. Always heavy handed he was.
November 24, 20223 yr Couple of thoughts : I was hoping dedra would die knew that limo driver couldn’t be trusted
November 24, 20223 yr Good shit. The funeral procession with the drums was intense as hell. Kino’s speech, Luthen’ speech, and now Marva’s speech were fantastic. You could also throw in the reading of Nemik’s manifesto, too.The writing and production was probably the best we’ve seen from Star Wars since the ESB. Andor not fully being involved with the rebellion but ironically being part of building the most crucial part of the Death Star, which he will ultimately take the first step in destroying, was such a cool thing to see. They did it with the sunset, and now the parts he built while in prison. Just beautiful story telling. Can’t wait for season 2! Also, whoever kicked our precious emo boy over can touch grass.

Mon Mothma flat out told Luthen in his shop when she made that "surprise" stop at Luthen's shop in either ep 3/4/5 that she was being watched by ISB and that her driver was a ISB plant.
November 24, 20223 yr Great story telling and amazing what they can do with Star Wars without any Skywalkers or light sabers anywhere near the plot. Gritty. Dark. Great themes of rebellion against oppression. I like this more than Mandalorian

Probably the best writing ever IMO, but I’m a sacrilegious fanboy in that I don’t worship ANH and ESB as leaps and bounds above ROTJ, R1, and maybe ROTS. You can tell when this shit gets written by someone with a successful suspense/thriller/spy/action background and not by a SciFi Spaghetti Western loving virgin.
November 24, 20223 yr No lie. I was hoping for a flash of a red light saber that last episode. Just something to get my hairs tingling
November 24, 20223 yr Was ol dude and ol girl bout to kiss ?? I sense some good acting chemistry. Like she ain’t gotten any in a while and it’s this dude she hot btw She not btw
November 24, 20223 yr It's gonna be interesting in season 2 when Vel and Cinta learn about Cassian! Awesome fkn finale! I loved seeing big hammer bell dude getting in on the punch a fascist action too

November 24, 20223 yr I was really skeptical of this when I heard it announced, I didn't understand why we should give a shit about a series about Andor. I was wrong. This is what I was hoping Disney could do.

November 24, 20223 yr Every single time I watch a Star Wars show, I check for a post credit scene. I have been largely disappointed, but not this week.
November 25, 20223 yr What a fantastic show. The tension and build up in pretty much every episode had me sitting up and gripping my chair and always left me wanting more. They’re just starting production on S2, so we’re looking at what 12 months, if we’re lucky, til it releases? Fuck
