Andor

Post by FrankTheTank »

Amazing series. Both seasons were the best of the Star Wars cannon, the best show in its expansive arsenal, and one of the best shows on TV over the last decade, IMO.

The acting and storyline was what watching TV should be all about, it was top-notch. Every characters storyline was well acted and meaningful to the overall story, and the follow through was tremendous. I will miss this show, and will be watching Rogue One this weekend.

Top notch writing. Top notch character development. After all the disney star wars duds, Andor really knocked it out of the park.

I saw an article headline which I 100% agree with. Andor turns Rogue One from a pretty good movie into a great one.

Definitely one of the best Star Wars shows on Disney+. I feel like the first season did drag at times, but this really hit its stride in season two, particularly the last six episodes.

Agree with the sentiments here. My teenage son told me yesterday that Andor made him like SW again, and that he realized he just stopped liking it because everything he's been seeing for the last few years sucked.

I don't love SW again by any means, but I'll absolutely be there if they want to keep making these super compelling, adult stories in the SW universe. There's a ton of potential there (that I have very little faith in them being able to tap... sounds like Tony Gilroy was a key element here).

And yeah, just watched Rogue One again last night and it's a lot better with this context. Not perfect by any means (way too much CGI Tarkin, the awful Leia, the Saw Guerrera squid, the really dumb fan service with those two Mos Eisley ruffians, as a standalone movie it's a bit overstuffed)... but by far the best SW movie of the Disney era.
