Star Wars: Andor (April 22, 2025)

[jaztermareal]

Nobody sets out to make something bad. So much time, work, effort, and money goes into making a tv series or movie. It’s just unfortunate that they were so out of touch with the core audience they didn’t see that the Acolyte wouldn’t do well. Star Wars can be different than what has come before. It may even be essential to it surviving. That doesn’t mean they need to rewrite what we’ve known and try change core things about the universe.

Andor is building on what has come before it and is enhancing it. Many didn’t think Rogue One was needed but it turned out to be one of the better films in the saga. It didn’t try to change A New Hope by making think we didn’t understand it before. It enhanced A New Hope by making us appreciate the effort that went into getting those plans and solving some long criticisms about the exhaust port flaw. It made Star Wars better. If they can keep the mindset of enhancing the universe rather than trying to redefine it, they still might be able to save it. At least Andor in good hands.

Precisely. Rogue One and Andor add to and enhance the saga, the sequel trilogy/Acolyte/BOBF/Kenobi/Ahsoka/Mando either subvert it or water it down.

Very well said.

Rian Johnson. Still baffled at his choices.

sure seems like Disney doesn’t really want to set out to make a good show.

I mean some of this stuff is so bad I actually feel that is the goal.

Seriously though. Great post.

Yeah I know but they’re very much advertising it as his “iconic” look.

It’s horrible.
