>all the clickbait youtubers never bring it up when talking about Star Wars
Those people don't watch shows or films, they just read headlines.
it's weird how this board pretends to like this explicitly leftist piece of tv just because no one watched it. Peak contrarian.
Hating authoritarianism is exclusively leftist now?
mostly yes
no
however the show does have anti-colonialism as a secondary theme, which is definitely left
there are other more subtle elements but it's exhausting to get into and I don't see the point in detailing them
I find it funny how people use “fascism” as a catch all term for authoritarianism
People have never actually cared to explicitly and carefully define fascism all that much, at least since the 40s, because the instant negative connotations of the word make it such a helpful political weapon that literally everybody wants to use it. Orwell pointed out this problem before the Second World War had even finished: https://www.orwell.ru/library/articles/As_I_Please/english/efasc
I hate people who don't know the difference between totalitariansim and authoritarianism. The empire is portrayed in Andor as totalitarian, a bureaucratic nightmare of bullshit. A million tiny tyrants each getting into every detail of people's lives.
Why do you think it's weird?
Why do you think people pretend to like something you don't like?
because it doesn't being in the views. a huge chunk of the modern star wars fanbase is prequel tards and clone wars fanboys, so they don't care about the original trilogy era content (unless it ties directly into the clone wars, like the rebels show)
Marketing budget ran out
Note that OP made this post just to see if people would actually defend Andor.
OP also thought Andor was boring as shit and was only praised because it wasn't quite as obviously awful as the other D+ shows.
It’s garbage like everything else disney has made the last few years
Back to plebbit gay
people don't even talk about ahsoka or mandalorian anymore and those shows were supposedly soooo gooooood.
it's fire and forget shows for memberberry addicts. everybody knew that.
Redpill me on accelerationism.
That which is falling must also be pushed.
I love Andor because it’s a Star Wars show for people that don’t actually like Star Wars anymore. That’s probably why nobody cares after the initial hype of a new show, because it has no lightsabers or sith lore
>because it has no lightsabers or sith lore
... or that it's barely star wars or a sci fi show in general.
People who like Star Wars should not be writing Star Wars. Everything is Glup Shittos and /r/prequelmemes.
I like the idea of star wars without sith lore and lightsabers, but it's hard for me to care anymore. Is it worth watching if you don't watch any other Disney stuff?
yes
it doesn't really crossover with anything except Rogue One, and even then only incidentally
When did anyone ever talk about “Andor” no one watched it. It’s just lore Yidsney+ MCU pig slop.
Should I watch this?
Or should I continue watching Ashoka which I dropped at about episode 2?
Mandalorian was great but I’m afraid it was the proverbial gem in the shit
The plot is literaly an 'and then' plot
Nothing ever happens because any character has an agenda, it just 'happens because the plot needs it to happen'
The heist was cool
I liked the ISB, wished it focused more on them
And Mon Mothma was cool
What's there to talk about? It was fricking great. We'll see how S02 fares.
Season 2 will almost certainly be fricked up. I guarantee it
>S1 flew under the radar because Disney was focusing on Kenobi and Ahsoka, but now they're aware of Andor and the critical praise it got (even if barely anyone watched it) they'll almost certainly get more hands-on with it this time
>because barely anyone watched it, Disney might just want to throw more lightsabers and references in there to get the redditors interested
>issues with certain locations meant that filming on S2 got delayed, and then delayed even further with the strikes
>the writers had plans for at least several more seasons, but then the decision was made to end it with S2 and so now they have to cram multiple years worth of story into this one season
I really hope they don't stop using grim abandoned quarries and seaside towns in the Norf for location shooting, they added something distinctively grim to the look of the show
Shooting a scummy, dystopian beach planet in fricking Blackpool was genius
Because the kind of people who enjoyed Andor usually have things like jobs and outside interests and don't spend all their time posting on twitter and Bhutanese riverdancing forums
It was good but I like Mando and Ahsoka more.
No one ever talked or even watched blandor to completion. It was garbage that most ppl tuned out on after the first few episodes.
*clears throat*
Frick the Empire.
>pushed to 2025
No need to discuss it until November, before S2 drops.
>slow to start (5 out of 12 eps where not much happens)
>prison arc goes on too long
>only good because of how much fricking trash is out right now
It was alright, I've not watched anything else SW after TLJ
There's no filonislop cameos so those people wouldn't have anything to say about it.
