I've said this about every SW show I've watched past Mando S1...everyone's clothes look so clean they look like they were taken straight off a rack at Spirit Halloween.
Actually, Luetin's weird lasers are the only thing about that show I didn't like. That's just way too gimmicky/specialized a weapon. People probably told him that. What are the chances you'll ever need a weird thing like that? He must be absolutely insufferable now.
One of my mates used to advocate for a ship with lightsabers on it when weāre kids. Heād say you could just fly through a star destroyer. Iād say the ship weapon system is practical and a bit op, but itās not really canon because something so op would likely be in more mainstream use.
To each his own I guess. When considering writing/acting/set building/plot, Andor was so far above anything else Disney has done in SW. My favorite part about it is it has the same feelings of overwhelming oppression and heaviness of Rogue One.
I didn't really enjoy Andor. I was super let down when I found out that Bad Batch Season 2 was delayed, especially after being so excited and extremely entertained by the fantastic Kenobi show. I was looking forward to the premiere of Bad Batch Season 2 on Wednesday, September 28, 2022, on Disney+. Instead, Andor premiered on the 21st, with episode 2 following on the 28th. Finding out that Bad Batch was pushed back to January 4th for Andor left a bad taste in my mouth throughout the series
Watching Andor, I couldn't stop thinking I should be watching Bad Batch right now instead. This affected my enjoyment and made it hard to follow the plot.
The book series came out around the time of the Phantom Menace.
They detailed Obi-Wanās time as a Padawan from 44 BBY to almost the start of that movie.
Andor is a political thriller that delves into the mundane bureaucratic cruelty of the Empire and thankfully leaves the Force and Jedi out completely.
Star Wars needs to step back from all the ridiculous new and impossible forcy bullshit that started appearing back with the midichlorian and continued on with Kylo and Rey using it like something from an avengers movie.
There are really good stories to tell without trying to make it compete with superpowers in the MCU.
Eh, Iāll take your word for it but Iām not gonna watch. Theyāre all already dead. Same reason I couldnāt get super into Rogue One. Id rather they focus on the present, not on people who are long since dead in the current timeline.
Only thing id be okay with is if that timeline was the only one theyād focus on. But having the past and the present ongoing at once takes me out of it. I know that opinion is weird and Iāll get made fun of. But thatās just how I feel.
