One of the best and the worst example of a "spy" coming from the same franchise is so funny. Good writing is a necessity in any movie/show not just hype moments and aura

Rare BTS photo of Tony Gilroy directing Rogue One’s “volunteering for Scarif” scene.

The presence of Melshi had already indicated that this was a scene from the reshoots, as he was a character Tony Gilroy introduced when he joined the project, but here you can just about spot Gilroy himself over to the right despite the grainy image.

The fact Andor got made feels too good to be true

As someone finally reaching old guy status it's been hard for me to fully engage with the kind of media I've always loved, comic books, action films, space oriented sci-fi etc. as of recent.

Andor is the only show / movie in the last 10-15 years for me that still gives me that same wonder Star Wars gave you as a kid but all the enjoyment of a full on adult oriented thriller with all the political intrigue and character complexity you ever dreamed a show could have.

It's such an insane marriage of 2 different things you generally never get to experience together and I'm now treating myself to a 2nd repeat viewing of Andor. I was trying to hold off until I forgot as much as possible for I indulged and could really enjoy it again in 4k on Bluray.

This show is fucking unbelievable. It's truly amazing. Everything, all of it. The writing at the very top and very close behind on acting, cinematography, vfx, editing, world building, and just overall aesthetically it hits so well it kinda breaks your heart because you know you may never get to see something quite so detailed, so pleasing to the eye. I think we're damn lucky this not only got made but the whole story got told in just the way Gilroy wanted.

"I'm just a tourist!" Tried something new, my first attempt at colored monochrome.

Potential PTSD?

Curious if the writers were going with the concept of Dedra experiencing some form of PTSD after the Ferrix Riots.

In S2 Ep 3 we see her hand shaking/trembling. Granted this is right before she meets Eedy Karn. But my first thoughts were coping with almost dying in the season 1 finale.

Its a small moment. But often wondered if the writers wouldve gone that route.

Stars wars, child leaders and child marriage…

What are folks thoughts about cultures in the SW universe that imagines teen girls leading planets while also marrying children to each other? In this world child marriage causes harm in a multitude of ways and those who suffer it are not going to be given positions of power ( like Mon Mothma). It just seems an interesting aspect of culture to include considering how contradictory it actually is that children ( particularly girls) would be groomed for leadership.

What’s the difference between imperial officers in olive grey tunics and ones in black tunics? What do the colors mean?

Tarkin's cruelty and sadism. He pretended to Leia that he was testing the Death Star's power on Alderaan even though he had already tested it twice already at that point - first on Jedha and then on Scarif.

Krennic as a victim of the appetites of fascism (going from Andor to Rogue One)

Re-watching possibly my favourite Tony Gilroy interview with House of R - this one is so much fun, with some genuinely unusual questions. It’s the one where he entertains the “Vel & Kleya Nazi Hunters” spinoff idea and mentions that B2EMO was named for his son‘s corgi.

But in a serious moment, Gilroy is asked about the effect of rewatching Rogue One where Krennic is very much lower in the pecking order than he is in Andor. Gilroy was actually nervous to rewatch the film when making season 2, concerned that he might’ve got something wrong, but ended up being relieved at how well the story, themes and character arcs continued.

Link to the interview. Even if you never watch interviews usually, try this one. https://youtu.be/mGBXFWvPRsE

Andor is a Modern Masterpiece - Part One: Love, Death, and Apathy

An excellent new Andor review by Sheev Talks. I love his approach to this review and how well he articulates the core themes of the narrative. He also explains how the visual language and storytelling of Andor honors the Original Trilogy and why the "It's not real Star Wars" argument is nonsense.

In short, it's a fantastic analysis of Andor and why it's such a powerful story.
