It owns that this speech, which is the best speech in Star Wars, was preceded in the same episode by a speech that is also the best speech in Star Wars. Then two episodes later we get an even better speech. God drat Andor was so good

Edward's three movies so far have all been pretty thin on story and character, but visually dazzling enough that I enjoyed them. I expect this to be the same. I'm not likely to care about these characters, but it's gonna a be pretty enough to get me into the theater.

I mean RO is better than JJ’s movies at least. But yeah it’s barely a functional movie and has that lovely Vader hallway scene. Ugh

it feels soulless to me and like none of the characters left any sort of impression, that andor show looks like it might be what i actually wanted out of rogue one so i should get around to watching it

I always forget about the CG corpse actors in RO until I rewatch it. I think that and the pretty flimsy soundtrack are what drag it down the most. Those loving ghouls are so creepy. But drat it's so pretty. All the new planets they go to are top-notch SW locales.

By episode 10 you will be openly weeping. edit: I want to say more. Even the characters aren't predictable and don't really fall into common tropes where the writers just get lazy and fill in the blanks. The bad guys aren't mustache twirlers and are fascinating studies in fascism. There's a cop and you're going to be like okay i know where his story is going and then all of a sudden he's eating cereal while his mother slowly twists the knife in him and you'll be like okay this is kind of wild I may need to rewatch this whole season. kiimo fucked around with this message at 01:51 on May 18, 2023 |

I was born in the perfect window to never care about Star Wars. I was too young for the OT and was the oldest kid in my family so had no older siblings or cousins into them. And I was an adult when the PT came out. So I have zero childhood nostalgia for any of it except for the TV movie with Ewoks and Wilford Brimley

Andor is so head and shoulders above stuff like the Mandalorian, I almost can’t believe they managed to make a Star Wars show that good.

At this point they should give Gilroy a blank check to just remake Rogue One for the ground up.

Yeah it’s criminal that they wasted Donnie Yen in that film. Lotta strikes against the movie really. But, so pretty. It also led to Greig Fraser working on Dune and his work was great there too. I hope the writers strike doesn’t negatively affect Andor too badly. Gilroy had to remove himself from most of his duties on the show about halfway throug photography.

Ugh why is the vader hallway scene lovely? sure its very fanservicey (it is late stage star wars at the end of the day) but it was the first time vader actually felt like a horrifying murder machine. like part of his backstory was that he hunted down and killed a bunch of surviving Jedi right? you can see how from that scene more than in the OT. not sure if the cartoon series even depicted vader doing something similar, never saw any of them. like compare vader in RO to vader in the obi wan series, its borderline comical how lovely the character is in the latter. e: the vader castle scene in RO is the real cringe and feels incredibly out of place

I liked Oblivion, and the The Creator looks better than that, so I'm looking forward to this. Rogue One is better than the last six mainline movies and better than any other of the standalones. Andor is a better but different look at the Star Wars Universe.

People are also forgetting Nemik's manifesto speech, because that show has FOUR character-defining speeches that are the best things in all of Star Wars.

this film is surreal. it feels like every second shot is something out of rogue one, and i'm pretty sure they just cgi'd over some footage from that beirut explosion a while back. it looks really good but it also feels weird. "chatgpt, make me a trailer for a sci-fi action film about the dangers of AI in the style of gareth edwards, rogue one, gritty, robots, space station, near future" edit:

Rogue One loving rules. Yeah, it's chopped to poo poo but what's there is real loving good. It looks beautiful. I would love to see the proper cut one day but Gilroy said NO on that. That's fine. Creator looks great tho.

The restatement of that line after the quick succession of violence-filled scenes (with the money falling shot) and the line on-screen about greed is giving me chills.
