This was actually pretty good ESPECIALLY for Disney Star Wars
It's a shame we're only going to get two seasons of it while garbage like Mandalorian will go for 10

Honestly they just needed to change it a little more and they would have gotten a pass. Should have removed the folding stock altogether. Maybe used a Krink instead, lots of blasters have odd looking muzzle devices. That would have fit right in.
I can take a reasonable guess there'll be some sourcebook that comes out (or is already out) that says it uses a tibana gas system. SW loves trying to make its nonsense 'work' and you can come up with anything in sci fi.
They try and explain all those useless telescopic sights strapped all over blasters as other things, for example.
>They try and explain all those useless telescopic sights strapped all over blasters as other things, for example.
That's funny, because in Battlefront they're just copes
Is that supposed to be bad?
just wait till you find out what they used to make all the blasters in the OT
That's not the point, dimwit. The point is it's ugly.
>bunch of naked browns are ugly
ok
all the blasters in the OT were made from ww2 era guns except for the rebels' gun that had m16 pistol grip and ejection port
huh?
Andor has an obsessed following of haters from Cinemaphile like this moron
It's really unfortunate that a lack of lightsabers causes such intense butthurt in the manbaby community.
It's not just Cinemaphile brainlets shitting on you midwits.
Every single one of you Disney shills talk exactly the same, I've noticed.
Yes you got me. it's in the Disney shill handbook to shit on every other Disney Star Wars IP and only praise Andor. You're a genius.
People like to whine about /misc/, but Cinemaphile is 100% responsibly for why Cinemaphile can’t have nice things.
Problems Empire?
nothing wrong with this
>B-B-BUT!
nothing wrong with this
You keep posting this picture over and over like it’s supposed to mean something.
>scifi guns use existing firearms as a skeleton
Tell me something I don't know
What’s the ratio on blacks to humans in this show?
Why the frick is there an AK-47 in Star Wars?
Why did Han use a WWI pistol in a completely different galaxy from ours?
Why does Han’s pistol have a sniper rifle scope?
Why do humans from an entire other galaxy speak the king’s english despite having the farthest alphabet from Phoenician or Latin?
If we’re talking silly shit that shouldn’t be in these movies then there’s a lot to unpack.
Its too bad Mando and Andors timelines are different. Could have had some Narcos crossovers lol
Andor is probably the only bearable Disneywars slop. Actually, Id say Rogue one was the only decent movie since the OT.
moron detected. Man do S1, Solo, and Phantom Menace are the only watchable Star Wars produced after 1984
He's just a Mexican, this shit is shilled by the ... what 35% mexican population of US.
Watch Lucasfilm ruin S2
Season 1 was relatively slow paced. Season 2 is supposed to cover 5 years worth of events. It's going to feel rushed no matter what.
Season 2 was already written when 1 came out, so one hopes they can avoid Rome-style cram-everything-into-one-season-itis *and* Kathleen Kennedy's frickery. At any event, we'll always have Isa She Wolf Of The Empire and Pro Imperial Boy Scout making eyes at each other in that hot, steamy space closet. And some TIE fighter porn that gave everyone who owned a Nintendo in the 90's a big chubby.
Sex. Pure sex.
We will also see Kuat. The ring, elevators and all. Its one of the places that gets bombed.
>Trandor
lol
Better series
>We will also see Kuat. The ring, elevators and all. Its one of the places that gets bombed.
Where do you get all this?
the problem with andor is that it had a handful of kino moments between hours of shit.
this happens at the end of a supposed heist that drawn out for no reason whatsoever.
imagine being this much of a bing bing wahoo homosexual
first half of andor is ww2 resistancekino
agreed
No it wasn't lol. Gilroy is making it up as he goes, he's just pretty good at it.
Trash pacing that moved at a snails pace. Every character besides the scenes with Andor were a fricking slog to get through.
Dera and Syril were more interesting than Andor.
Agree that Mon Mothma should've been cut entirely.
went in pretty neutral. watched a few episodes and dropped it because shit was boring. basically
the first 3 episodes sucked ass. I was going to ditch it too, but it picked up with the action scene where he meets that swedish actor so I decided to stick with it and I didn't regret it. if it continued like it had up to that point though I would've dropped it for sure.
apparently, I'm told, it was filmed with the expectation that it would be binged, and apparently they assumed people would watch like 3 episodes back-to-back per binging session or something.
yeah i think i watched only 3 episodes. i dropped it when they introduced his sister (?). i guess i can add it to my infinite backlog.
I'll just leave this here
name one thing wrong with this scene
>Andor is a shit character no one gives a shit about
>Speeches were tryhard, forced and cringe
>Mon Monthma's storyline stalled and became boring incredibly fast. No actual politics. The b***h was just sitting at home with a sad face and bickering with her awful family.

Not reading your blog post, pretty sure both you and it are gay
Hi sunk coast fans.
I honestly dont onions over thing I recognize very often but after the treatment Mon Mothma got in season 1 Im actually excited to see what they do with Bail Organa in season 2 cause he's the person who sets off the entire events of the OT but we know nothing about him.
Have we heard that a younger Organa/de-aged Jimmy Smits will put in an appearance? In lore he was supposed to be the real brains behind the Rebellion.
Hes not gonna be de aged its been confirmed Jimmy Smitz is coming back and he's the perfect age for a 16 years after episode 3 Bail. Also my prediction is him and Luthen dont get along
They have to cram 4 years into one season. Its not gonna be as good as season 1 unfortunetly
I dont get why Rogue One was shit when Gilroy wrote that too
Rogue One was producer meddling. Tons of reshoots and rewrites.
>I dont get why Rogue One was shit when Gilroy wrote that too
Too much meddling, story was too compressed, characters and setting couldn’t breathe like they did in Andor. People complain about Cassian being a weak main character but he’s still much stronger than Jyn was, and Krennic was fun but wound up being Tarkin #2 who yells at Tarkin #1 and Vader and doesn’t actually do anything memorable in the main story.
Krennic was a kino villain tbh. His death was fun dramatic irony too
Oh wow the Rogue One writer made this as well? No fricking way am I watching it.
Rogue One story was shit. The only reason anyone thinks it's good is because of the action at the very end of the movie.
He was brought in at a later stage to salvage the mess that they have. He didn't have much time, Iger wanted a new SW movie every year.
Maybe if it was a self contained thing i could agree with you but, like most of Disney Wars, it completely disregards SW style, tone, cinematography, themes and whatnot. Mandalorian S01 however actually accounted for all of those things so it fits better with SW. S02 was a hit and a miss, some episodes worked but half of them were set ups for new shows because KK and the suits really want to make their own MCU with DW... S03 is full nu Disney Wars and not worth anyone´s time.
Ahsoka has been so far a decent hit and miss... I don`t think i´ll ever be onboard with so many jedi surviving order 66 and sometimes the lighting work is kind of funny and makes things look cheap but composition and visual narrative in general are somewhat generally aligned with the prequels style, which kind of makes sense considering Ahsoka´s relation with Anakin and how it al ties in to the clone wars. Feloni really did his homework.
Mandalorian S01 and Ahsoka really do prove that decent SW can still be made depending on who gets to sit on the chair and call the shots.
Ahsoka and The Mandalorian dont feel more like Star Wars what do you mean? The Volume is so ugly and its used in every scene
Andor having zero aliens is un-starwars
The OT had zero aliens either outside of the underworld stuff. Thats how the star wars universe is. Not to mention Andor takes place when COMPNOR is in full power. Andor s2 is gonna shine more light on the pro human propaganda of the empire
There were plenty in Andor, you just weren't paying attention.
SW has style elements that define it´s identity like how flying combat dog fight sequences are based on WW2 films and footage or how it uses transitions, or how it composes the elements in the frame to match with the emotional intention of a shot or sequence. SW does this kind of thing on all levels, from cinematography and lighting to narrative tone, pacing, structure or even it´s main themes.
I´m not making a judgment on the quality of the elements or how those elements are used, just saying that SW style is recognizable. Even if you don´t know what to look for you feel something is off when those things are not there or are executed incorrectly.
Considering that you got shows that even though proficient, like Andor, don`t really fit the SW style. They are miles better than sheer incompetent ones like Kenobi that not only do not abide by the established style and forms that give SW it´s identity but are plain simply not good enough to be considered professional work due to their lack of understanding of basic storytelling and cinematography.
nothing about the prequels or sequels feel like ww2
Prequels are fall of Rome with a Renaissance flair.
>nothing about the prequels or sequels feel like ww2
everything about the empire is supposed to be "nazis bad"
>Considering that you got shows that even though proficient, like Andor, don`t really fit the SW style.
>MG-42 without magazine is okay
>But StG-44 doesn't fit
Filonitards
The only normal post in this thread and it got two replies from malding subhumans.
How many Jedi survived exactly? Do we even know how many there were before order 66? Say if it was like 100 and only 20 survived that sounds reasonable. Why none of them did anything other than obi is an even bigger mystery
>Ahsoka really do prove that decent SW can still be made
yes, you got filtered
laugh all you want, contrarian Black person
Filoni's SW is the only real SW after Lucas
>Filoni's SW is the only real SW after Lucas
At least Lucas in 20th century knew purpose of plot-twists and pacing unlike Filoni.
pacing is really a problem in some episodes and nothing made by him will ever come close to the OT and PT, but they're still true SW in its core, different from the Andor and R1, which are not real SW
Unironically this. Rogue One and Blandor completely lack any sense of wonder.
That's not a good thing, manchild.
>That's not a good thing, manchild.

I'm not a normie. But I'm also not some spiteful mutant.

As opposed to dark saber twist at the end of Mandalorian second season which was hanging like sword of Damocles over heroes who just defeated malicious moff Gideon and made a first step of reuniting two branches of people of Mandalore divided because........whoopps, add_placeholder_here
>some
homie, you can jump from Mandalorian season 2 episode 1 straight to episode with Bobba Fat and you wouldn't miss a single detail except Din's meeting with Mandalore The moron.
Same with Ahsoka btw, you can jump from first episode to 4th episode and you wouldn't miss some important development of the story or cool moments
>they're still true SW in its core
Yeah except of all things which made Star Wars popular in the first place, from acting to dynamic scenes.
>he's a plot gay
lel
I really don't care if Andor is Star Wars-ish or not as long as its good. Mandalorian and Ahsoka are bad as Star Wars series and bad as standalone series.
Blandor isn't good. All the characters are dull, charisma-void cardboard cutouts without personalities. This ain't Sopranos or Mad Men, that's for sure. They all just walk around with serius business constipated try hard faces, snarling at each other, occasionally spewing out le epic reddit speech, in between being unlikable buttholes. God, that show sucked.
Mando and Ahsoka are both 1000x times superior Star Wars shows. It's objectively true.
>muh parasocial relationships
you're sick in the head
>Mando and Ahsoka are both 1000x times superior
>All the characters are dull, charisma-void cardboard cutouts without personalities
LOL
LMAO even
It's true though. Andor is boring, ugly shit.
>It's true though. Andor is boring, ugly shit.
As opposed to picrelated?
One of the nightsisters (with the round face) looked scuffed and the semi-nightsister without the headscarf doesn't look great either but overall it's much better looking than Andor and has a considerably more attractive cast as well.
>more attractive cast as well.
Like...?
Literally everyone.
>Literally everyone.
Literally who?
At least in Andor actors are capable of expressing emotions.
Everyone. Ray Stevenson, Rosario Dawson, that Ukrainian yandere chick, the hapa girl, Hayden Christensen. Everyone.
>Rosario Dawson, that Ukrainian yandere chick, the hapa girl, Hayden Christensen.
TOP FRICKING KEK
Literally neither doesn't express any emotions in the show
Plain wrong but also not even related to the point I'm making.
>not even related to the point I'm making.
Outside the fact that you are desperate virgin who falls in love with eastern european gold digfger with alcoholic eyes and walled nigress?
Kek. I accept your concession.
>cannot form single coherent argument
>Kek. I accept your concession.
Back Cinemaphile you go
The argument was made and you conceded it. And stop projecting, I visit Cinemaphile less than once a year.
>The argument was made
Where?
Use your eyes. You deflecting by calling me virgin (I mog you btw) was your concession.
>You deflecting by calling me virgin
Because outside of Stevenson you are practically posted poorly done waifu-baits as example. And after being called out you switched to passive-agressive behavour.
So more or less, but seems like my guess was correct
lol
And?
>and has a considerably more attractive cast as well
lol what
That shot is horrible. Are any of them actually in the same room together?
Not a hard choice to make.
god these CGI backgrounds look like such shit, is a matte painting or something practical really that hard to make on a show with a multi million budget?
It's okay.
why is the lighting on the fake walls so yellow while the lighting on the floor blue? It looks terrible, they half tried to blend it to look like a natural transition on the right but just gave up on the left side of frame
Different materials. That's a black rock they're standing on. What's in the background is a Star Destroyer on top of it. Also, that's an HDR screenshot you're looking at. Not an accurate representation of colors.
Thrawn's ship has seen some shit.
So did his troops.
>Cinemaphilemblrite proves he's mentally ill: the post
>Andor fanboys when they see a lightsaber ignite
actually
>OTrannies when they dont see lightsabers
I liked it as well, OP. The prison part too, though it felt almost like a completely self-contained plot line, it could've been its own show entirely. I feel like one of the writers for Andor just wanted to do a cyberpunk prison story and this Andor thing was their chance to make it happen.
What a horrible and boring show, the very worst Star Wars content ever made, bar none.
Kys troll
He's right though.
>make movies for kids to appeal to everyone
>20 years later do another batch
>learn from mistakes and make show for kids who were previously kids into Star Wars
>doesn't feel like Star Wars
you can't win with starwars fans, literally the only good content to come out of Disney along with rouge one and people still complain
The Tarkin novel by the writer of Darth Plagueis is technically disney canon and that's kino too
Tarkin was fricking awesome. I only read it because a friend told me about it after I mentioned wanting more stuff like Andor.
You wouldn't say that if this garbage didn't cost a quarter billion. It's hilarious how easy it is to trick midwits.
Learn to spell.
Also Rogue One was irredeemable dogshit and you should feel embarrassed for liking it, as I feel embarrassed for replying to this post.
t. defends the prequels
Kek. Blandorgays are the same midwits that got filtered by the Prequels.
Solo*
Nah frick off. You know you can watch stuff that isn’t marvel and Star Wars you know? Just watch an actual drama if that’s what you want. You don’t have to pretend the slop is good just because they added salt to it one time.
>You don’t have to pretend the slop is good just because they added salt to it one time.
this is actually a literal plot point in Andor
Andor is completely uninspiring. Crazy what an ugly, miserable piece of shit it is.
I was going to watch Ahsoka and this popped up. Isn't a bit grim to think these little padewans are fricking dead?
It’s good because it was made in the UK by the same UK team who did rogue one.
When you’re 6000 miles away from mouse slop headquarters in California you can actually produce decent content
>It’s good because it was made in the UK by the same UK team who did rogue one.
>When you’re 6000 miles away from mouse slop headquarters in California you can actually produce decent content
Yeah, keep coping.
What’s your point? The mouse threw money at them and we’re able to work without the disney execs, kathleen, iger, California residents, etc breathing down their necks throughout production
A lot of money.
>It's a shame we're only going to get two seasons of it while garbage like Mandalorian will go for 10
Better off that way. No good shows stay good for more than a few seasons. Trying to keep things going past the sell-by date is the easiest way to kill a quality program
At least with serialized dramas. Episodic television has the potential to stay good much longer. That usually works better with comedy though, but there are some exceptions. X Files was good for much longer than it had any right to be. Even the post Molder and Scully seasons have some good shit in there
I never really cared for the overarching story of the X-Files. My favorite episodes were always monster of the week. I don't even know what the general consensus on that is. I know people seemed to dislike most of the movies, but did people actually care about the grand conspiracy plot?
Yes, very much so. And it's lack of a satisfying resolution pissed a lot of people off. But it was all very JJ Abrams to me. It's pretty clear the writers had no plan for an overall resolution. I really don't think you could actually write one. The mystery was the appeal.
I skip every alien episode of xfiles when I rewatch it
I like the mytharc for most of the show's run. It falls off after the first movie, but there are still some solid episodes after that. It's easier to appreciate when you accept the mytharc itself is more episodic than it might seem.
god damn my taint itches so much
did you try licking it?
It's the only worthwhile thing Star Wars has put out since 1983.
>
>Yet another 'Andor was good' shill post for the 57th time this week
Nothing Star Wars has been good since Return of the Jedi. People accepted the prequels only because what came after was so much worse, and because we have to pretend zoomers are people and should have an opinion now.
No exceptions.
>People accepted the prequels
I don't and never will. They're shit.
Haven't seen it but from what I've heard is that it's not a star wars show but a heist show with star wars props. Am I right? Maybe that's why it stands out.
It's a very expensive snoozefest the 105 IQ crowd seems to be in love with.
It's more than a heist show, but regardless it isn't very Star Wars-y in terms of tone. It uses the setting and conflict to tell a different kind of story and it actually has some craft put into it. It's a little uneven and easy to overrate because of how shit Star Wars has been for decades, but it's a good show.
>and it actually has some craft put into it
Kek. There it is again. The $250M budget.
The budget helps, though I have to imagine a lot of that money could have been used more efficiently. But the casting alone is several cuts above. So is everything else. It's just a better-produced show.
Yes building an entire town set, a prison, and a bunch of other big interior sets, hundreds of costumes and filming on location and not in front of LED screen costs money. I don't get what your point is with bringing up the budget. If the show looked as cheap as Rings of Power I'd get it, but just saying "$250m lol" isn't the big killer blow you think it is
Needed more aliens
I haven't watch anything from Disney Wars since TFA, it was so bad I just aborted it from my memory
Why should I watch this if I already know the titular character will die in Rogue One, therefore rendering everything he does meaningless?
wait is Andor a person? I thought it was like a moon or something
I thought it was his code name.
>steals the death star plans
>meaningless
That also applies to the PT itself.
Not really, considering the Prequels tell the story about the man it's all about.
>Why should I watch this if I already know the main character goes bad and then dies in Return of the Jedi, therefore rendering everything he does meaningless?
Okay whatever but Felix Andor doesn't matter. Just a boring dud.
>waaah where is my glowing dildos?!
>doesn't understand charisma
As expected from a low class person with a class obsession.
Vader is an interesting character since the contrast between his goody two shoes self as a slave kid into space jason vorhees is immense.
Cassian is pretty much the same person between the TV show and the movie not to mention his actual impact to the galaxy is nothing compared to Vader. And before you bring up "muh deathstar plans", it was a team effort and Jyn Erso was more important.
The prequels obviously had more room to tell a story, even if it sucked ass, but the outcome in both cases was known. Obi-Wan himself said it all in ROTJ, not that Lucas felt compelled to stick to it.
It was very good. Mauler said so
Mon Mothma is especially good.
Currently watching the show now and I do have to admit it started slowly but by the end of this episode I must say, the kino is strong with this one
Also this
>IMAGINE IF LUKE SHOWS UP PERSONALY TO ANDOR IS SEASON 2 AND WE ALSO SEE REALISTIC EMPEROR PALPATINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Seems like the tourists from reddit are shilling this crap again, also this thread has the highest density of brownies on Cinemaphile, worse than the nazi generals on /misc/.
it: redditors mad at imagined Cinemaphile boogeyman
I haven't watched any Star Wars show since Andor, just wake me up when S2 launches
So many posters here that hate the prequels but gobbled up all the EU crap and now adore Disney shit.
How's this not an invented camp to "feel superior" but in actuality they look beyond moron and I think they convinced me to stay the frick away from sw threads from now on.
>but gobbled up all the EU crap and now adore Disney shit.
LMAO
Way too much projecting Lucas-purist.
?t=986
Reminder that this is your usual Andor haters, lmao
To be honest I never understood why people hated idea of radical rebels. Aesthetically wise Rebels always were loosing to the imperials. Empire well established visual definition, while rebels outside of X-wings always looked generic and completely bland. Reshaping them by using various guerilla groups and movements of XXth century, from slavic terrorists pre-WW1 to IRA and ISIS and Taliban would be great.
>I wonder what Rey would have been like if Dave had directed her.

I guess we're just not allowed to have comfy Andor threads on Cinemaphile huh. Anyway
>Name one (1) thing that he was wrong about
Left before Syril made a proper report about accident.
Also, shame there are no continuation of Holmes and Watson:Galactic Empire edition in second season
It was fricking garbage. What do we really need and want? JarJar Binks, not as a Sith, but as the meta Jedi-Sith with Grey alignment: the true one
(real g) who will bring balance to the force. This is the only way that Disney could possibly redeem themselves. But they won't do it, because they're boring fricks who make snorefests like Andor.
yeah I really liked it
it's some good Star Wars spinoff. the train heist with Woody Harrelson was kino
I enjoyed it as much as the first season of Mandalorian
The whole discourse about Andor just shows me that Star Wars fans don’t deserve shows like it.
If all they want Star Wars to be is Clone Wars/Filoni slop for them to gobble up, then that’s all they’re gonna get. I watched 2 episodes of Asssucka and turned it off halfway through the 3rd because I couldn’t stand how fricking stupid and dull that shit was. After Andor season 2 comes out, I’m out of the fandom, I’ll never consume anything Star Wars again, as long as Filoni keeps being their golden boy.
there's based Star Wars enjoyers who just want snapshot stories of various interesting characters to fill in the framework of the universe from the first 6 movies and slop fans who just want reddit superhero shit in Star Wars trappings
>reddit superhero shit
that's Star Wars
Good. No one will miss your sorry homosexual ass.
b-b-b-but anon what about fat Thrawn and fat clones in the hecking TCW flashback (no seriously, among all Disney's live actions shows only in Andor stormtroopers/clones suits looked well).
>among all Disney's live actions shows only in Andor stormtroopers/clones suits looked well
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
Jesus fricking Christ, shut the frick up. You could not have been more disingenuous even if you tried.
There is nothing remotely special about Blandor. Oh wait, there is, it cost a quarter billion.
kino
ONE WAY IN
ONE WAY IN
>here's the well looking live-action clones that are so much better than the other shows I've been telling you about...
Neither of them looks as fat as Rex
Nope. Clones in Andor have child bearing hips and the armor literally doesn't fit them. Rex looked fit as frick, and the armor actually sit tight on the person playing him.
pretty unrealistic their feet aren't mud splattered
The show is pretentious, middling and extremely pedestrian. Looks ugly, bland and doesn't feel like Star Wars at all. All the magic and wonder are gone. It tries to be 'adult', but comes off as juvenile instead, i.e. a character saying 'shit' — this is what Star Wars has been reduced to. The dialogues are tedious and dragged out. The writer is definitely an egocentric graphomaniac. It has "literary" quality at the expense of coming off as artificial and forced. The pacing is terrible. The episodes often just end abruptly without concluding anything they set out to do, including the finale. Main character is a charisma vacuum Mexican, who dies in the spin-off prequel where he was introduced — and where his entire character arc happened. Other characters are just as dull. None of them behave like real people, they all take everything over-the-top seriously, which comes off as automatons going through the motions the writer requires them, and not how organic, real people talk or act.
The fanbase is extremely obnoxious, no better than TLJgays. They don't even like Star Wars, they just like feeling smarter than they actually are. Any shill andor thread is basically this:
>YOU ARE NOT MATURE ENOUGH FOR THIS MATURE STAR WARS FOR ADULTS!
>THIS IS THE BEST STAH WAHZ SINCE ESB!
>YOU JUST WANT PEW PEW!
>YOU ARE A PREQUELgay!
>ACTUALLY STAR WARS WAS ALWAYS BAD!
>RIAN JOHNSON/TONY GILROY ARE ACTUAL DIRECTORS WITH TALENT!
>YOU WANTED LUKE TO BE A MARY SUE WITH NO CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!
>GO WATCH HIM CHOP CHOP SOME ROBOTS AND BRINGING DOWN STAR DESTROYERS LIKE A MARY SUE!!!
Very obnoxious.
All in all, generic and bland story with no novelty of themes and ideas, that should never have been told. Just like Rogue One ruined the Death Star and Darth Vader, this keeps ruining it even further.

Stopped reading here.
Holy dumbass who can't even understand a basic character like fricking Cassian, lmao
>no argument found
Concession accepted.
His past literally shape his character and mind and is important to see his evolution through the 1st season.
If you can't even see it while watching the show, you are simply just too stupid even for some basic as frick writing.
Learn English, subhuman. Also, Cassian Andor has no character to speak of. Also, his entire desire to fight the Empire is completely incidental, because he was just randomly detained by that random stormtrooper on the beach planet (the Empire is so hecking evil and oppressive, get it, you will get 6 years in prison for simply walking LOL and the court is a Kafkaesque meme without any real procedure), and if that didn't happen he would have never joined the Rebellion. He would have just left with the money from the heist. I was never sold on his urge to fight the Empire afterwards. He is a character with no agency. He was a selfish prick then, he is a selfish prick now. He is a selfish prick in Rogue One, until he realizes that he loves the bunny girl on something and he doesn't want to hurt her fee-fees, UwU
Yeah, you're right - that shit is basic as frick, and hence bland and boring as frick.
>Also, Cassian Andor has no character to speak of.
Brave words, for someone who defends TCW and Rebels
>his entire desire to fight the Empire is completely incidental, because he was just randomly detained by that random stormtrooper on the beach planet
Filoniotards cannot be that stupid,
> Filoniotards cannot be that stupid
They, as a matter of fact, can be and are, as evidenced by every online discussion on the matter.
>and if that didn't happen he would have never joined the Rebellion. He would have just left with the money from the heist
not going to lie I felt like Cassian deserved way more. instead he was immediately ripped out of his comfy post-heist bender
>>was never relevant in the first place
>literally launches chain of events which leads Cassian into ranks of early Rebellion
plotline

out, irrelevant and useless

This is brain of former human being after all seasons of TCW and Rebels

Yeah who would ever come to Star Wars for:
- space flight sim
- sword-fight sim
- philosophical sim
>space horror
Star Wars always had disgusting talking aliens
Imagine coming to Star Wars for something other than a fun fairy tale.
If I wanted to watch actually grounded and well-written story with characters that are written like real people, I would watch The Wire or The Sopranos. At least they act like people in those and react to situations realistically, and not like soulless, overly serious, overly dramatic automatons we see in Andor, because it is le mature serious and gritty. Gilroy fundamentally confused mature, serious and human with pretentious, joyless and exhausting.
There is no point in playing play-pretend with your wanna be "nuanced and mature" characters, when the Empire is an objectively evil state ruled by a cackling Devil that shoots lightning out of his finger tips and wears a hood all the time and his name is literally INSIDIOUS, and his right hand man is a psychotic cyborg who is named Dark Invader. And the best legion of stormtroopers is beaten by teddy bears. But then Blandorgays act like Blandor is the "true extension" of the OT and "the only good thing since ROTJ", when they are absolutely nothing alike and have nothing in common, other than Blandor using some SW memorabilia here and there.
Blandor is embarrassing. Blandorgays are embarrassing, obnoxious, pretentious manchildren, that lack any and all self-awareness.
>There is no point in playing play-pretend with your wanna be "nuanced and mature" characters, when the Empire is an objectively evil state ruled by a cackling Devil that shoots lightning out of his finger tips and wears a hood all the time and his name is literally INSIDIOUS
Empire is functional state. Republic in prequels is textbook example of failed state,
>his right hand man is a psychotic cyborg who is named Dark Invader.
You mean our good old little Ani/? Sorry he is chosen one.
>And the best legion of stormtroopers is beaten by teddy bears.
Ever guss how I knew you never read fairy tale beyond Walt Disney's adaptations?
LOL LMAO even
First, Star Wars is nowhere close to fairy tale. LOTR is fairy tale (although with heavy focus on christian morale and theology), Narnia is fairy tale.
Second, most of the people into Star Wars for visual aesthetic, for John Williams music and engaging action and tolerable writting. This is why most beloved movie in the entire franchise remains Empire Strikes Back, not ROTJ because ewoks were laughed as lamest type of deus ex machina since 1983.
boy andor was icsh
Reminder than any single frame of any of the prequel movies has more soul, meaning, and artistic quality than the entirety of Andor.
>frame
that's the point

frick Andor, frick Rogue One, frick Disney and frick Shills
I don't know how I can go back to star wars now, broskis. Andor is just... so good. The rest of star wars banal poorly written kiddie shit pales in comparison.
Rouge One and Andor are literally the best Star Wars. Finally, Star Wars for adults that is not embarrassing to watch. Everything else is fricking embarrassing. Honestly, go watch A New Hope, or even Empire Strikes Back - dogshit dialogue, hockey acting, shit action, goofy ass cringe shit all around, quips. Nothing on the level of Stellan Skarsgard or Andy Serkis. Nothing like impeccable Gilroy's tone and atmosphere. Star Wars is a dead fossil, and it needs to be rebooted. And Tony Gilroy is the right man. Everything else is fricking dogshit and terrible. You know I am right.
Let Gilroy remake the original trilogy and go from there.
Decanonize everything else except Andor and Rogue One.
Seriously, who wants this dumb shit?
Stupid ass MCU quipping teenagers taking down the Empire? A farmer boy? Fricking moronic kiddie garbage nonsense.
KK can redeem herself if she fires everyone except Gilroy and his team and reboots Star Wars to proper standards (such as Rogue One and Andor).
Hereby, I declare official Star Wars canon for mature sophisticated adults with taste:
Andor
Rogue One
>Andor
yes it has icsh boy
>Rogue One
does it have icsh boy
Nothing about it looks interesting so I'd rather just not watch it. It's the same with the rest of the Disney crap.
Wait it’s getting a season 2? I thought for sure it was cancelled. Good news, because it’s the single piece of nu wars that I actually thought was pretty good. Even better than rogue one, it’s not exactly sw in tone of the original two trilogies, but it did take it into more of a mature setting and direction, something that was actually decent and interesting for the sw world. It really did it’s own thing and it stands out for it.
Yep yep yep. Problem is we need to wait for TWO FRICKING YEARS. Oh well. Good things come to those who wait, one supposes.
I really like this character
now I understand the femdom people
she reminds me of Kim Wexler in space
If only even ONE character in that shitty Blandor show acted like a human being with a wide gamut of emotions and had a distinct personality, like literally every single character in BCS, then maybe it could have been good, despite the shitty aesthetics.
There's no way you actually watched it. Holy shit dude.
Yeah, unfortunately I did.
>*snarls back at you in mexican accent*
>people don't have or show emotions unless they're literally screaming and shouting like toddlers
you've watched too much anime and thomas the tank engine.
No, I've watched actually good shows. I can conclude with total assurance, that Trandor isn't one of them.
Her romance with that dude is so nice.
It's forced and even more cringe than Anakin/Padme in AOTC.
Do you think that the force brought them together, for what purpose.
>romance
Virgins. vitgins never changes
They really have something budding between them.
>They really have something budding between them.
OCPD
I really hope that after seeing the real shit the Empire is doing thanks to her, he will fricking betray her and bomb their HQ.
Why do the characters who work for the empire all have British accents.
What did the showmakers mean by this.
andor is honestly the only star wars media i ever felt a pressing need to continue watching now, to know what happens, since the original trilogy.
i've watched all of mandalorian, it really slid downhill due to the constant spin-off shilling after season 1. ahsoka is pretty terrible with its only saving grace being the two sith. it really feels as if everything except the OT and andor were made to be 'watched' in the background, while having your phone in your hand.
Ah, yes. The totally organic "blandor is the true extension of the OT" post, despite both having nothing in common whatsoever. You can't like the original Star Wars and Blandor at the same time. They are pretty much opposites in style, tone and narrative. You only say you "love the OT", because it is socially necessary to say so. moron.
Is it true that the original idea was to have a season dedicated to each Rogue One character?
Because, if that's the case, it would be tragic.
>hour later pathetic bump
No, it would be shit, shillanon. Rogue One was a shit movie with shit characters. No one cares. It is truly a blessing that there's just one more season of this slop, and it's two too many.
nobody cares about R1 characters, fricking dogshit movie

Mando is pure Star Wars, Andor isn't, frick off with this pseudo shit
>Mando is pure Star Wars
Which one?
all of it, I'm not a contrarian, don't even reply back
>all of it,
Top kek
Andor and the Cal Kestis games are the only nuWars products with tolerable writing.
Mando S1 is ok but it's not carried by writing but by the simple act of a cowboy in a helmet doing shit.
Ahsoka is ok but it's mostly about nostalgiabait and fan service instead of real writing.
>Ahsoka is ok but it's mostly about nostalgiabait
this is why I'm not gonna watch it, I don't want to do nuwars homework of watching like 8 seasons of a kids show to get the character of asshoka
The funny thing is that the only interesting part of Ahsoka (Baylan and Shin) isn't linked to any previous content (yet).
shin looks cute, and I like them using the little rat tail braid that the padwans had in the prequels on a girl, little braid looks cute
Andor is Star Wars for normies
Star Wars is normies core.
Not really. Normies didn't sit through that snoozefest. It's for antisocial midwits.
Not really. Andor had the lowest viewership of all nuwars shows.
gladly, normies are getting tired of fantasy and scifi, thank God
this show and its fanbase made me hate this place, I think I will finally leave
you were wrong "you're here forever" guy, you were wrong
The Venn diagram of people who watch Star Wars for Force shit and flashy lights and people who don't have the attention span to read books is a perfect circle.
Sounds like horseshit. I like fantastical stuff and I also read better books than you.
Tourist.
No, this is my home board. I barely even browse Cinemaphile anymore.
Shills actually defend filoni slop like mando or ahsoka and say Andor is bland. Opinions instantly disregarded, Andor is kino confirmed.
andor is what you get when a good filmmaker wants to do something good but has to dress it as franchiseslop to get the funding
no wonder the starwarsshitters can't stomach it
>good filmmaker
>Armageddon
Certified competence
Gilroy is a writer first and foremost. Filoni is a fat loser nerd who makes fanfic cartoons without an ounce of test in his body.
>without an ounce of test in his body
Ahsoka is considerably higher T than Andor.
is this supposed to be taking place during episode 3?
why does he have a red lightsaber?
No, that's in some magic dimension. That's after Ray beat the shit out of her.
You just made the claim a kid's show with quips, heckin character references and women stronk fan fic writing is high T. This is what disneyslop does to your brain.
Now try again, this time without buzzwords and actually making a point.
>0:13 just swings at nothing
lel
these fights feel like they have no stakes. When was the last time a jedi actually lost a fight against a sith in nuwars? and I mean an actual duel, not like the han solo shit where it's just an execution. Is it really qui gon because I can't think of any other time.
Literally that fight.
>falls off a cliff into a dream sequence
yeah man she's a goner
Go watch Game of Midwits.
>starshit poster trying to act above goyim of thrones
>starshit
Lmao. Seething midwit. Get your mommy issues fixed.
Armageddon is literally a masterpiece.
YOU KNOW IT WAS LIKE ACTUALLY PRETTY DECENT?????
