Star Wars: Andor

[CaptainWacky]

August 31st



Looks visually and tonally similar to Rogue One, so that's good! I like that we're finally going to get to see Coruscant again, during the imperial days.

I saw one of Cassians three dads in the trailer.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

This is the first Star Wars tv series i'm interested in i'll check this out

 

[CaptainWacky]

There's also going to be a Jude Law show about skeletons?

that one is literally Star Trek Prodigy

 

[whisky]

You're not wrong.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's been pushed back three weeks, but we're getting a "three episode premiere" so that makes up for it I guess.



How come this looks like a proper movie and much of Obi-Wan Kenobi looked like a fucking fan film?

 

[whisky]

Didn't they build half a mile of physical sets for this?

BTW if this is 20 hours of one show Andor will end with more screen time than any character in star wars, in live action anyway.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's a 12 episode season and they've ordered a second 12 episode season.

 

[Dr Dave]

Looks exciting.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Is his name a pun on and/or somehow.

 

[whisky]

An Excel spread sheet pun.

 

[whisky]

He came this close to being Cassian Nested if.

[whisky]

They say bastards now?

They say bastards now.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

okay why was i super happy to see the senate i don't even like the prequels

 

[whisky]

Maybe it reminded you of when you were younger. Star wars has pretty much weaponised nostalgia.

 

[CaptainWacky]

It's because the world-building in the prequels was actually RAD AS HECK and even if you think you don't like the movies you have subconciously been influenced by them in every aspect of your life for the last twenty years.

Andor looks surprisingly good.
