Rebels, the wait is almost over. The new season of Andor releases tomorrow (4/22) night at 8pm CDT with the first three episodes. The consensus I read from early reviews before I muted Andor was season two is as good as, if not better than, season one.

quote:

April 22, 8pm CDT
Episode 1: One Year Later - 51 minutes
Episode 2: Sagrona Teema - 44 minutes
Episode 3: Harvest - 53 minutes

April 29, 8pm CDT
Episode 4: 54 minutes
Episode 5: 54 minutes
Episode 6: 54 minutes

May 6, 8pm CDT
Episode 7: 44 minutes
Episode 8: 47 minutes
Episode 9: 58 minutes

May 13, 8pm CDT
Episode 10: 48 minutes
Episode 11: 42 minutes
Episode 12: 46 minutes


Recap video of Season 1:


quote:

Thrillingly intricate, suspenseful, tragic and hopeful, it fulfills the promise of the galaxy far, far away, telling a uniquely nuanced, mature, and gripping story that’s at once distinct from, and yet inherently wedded to, the Skywalker Saga.
quote:

Andor is leagues beyond the rest of Disney's Star Wars slate, rejecting cheap nostalgia in favor of enriching the wider historical arc.
quote:

If Andor Season 1 set a gold standard for Star Wars storytelling, then Season 2 has achieved an entirely new level of perfection.
quote:

If Andor Season 1 was the match to light the fires of galactic Rebellion, then Andor Season 2 lights the fuse to the powder keg. It’s triumphant STAR WARS.
quote:

Andor is bland, generic content. AnSnore or AnBore? - Nerdrotic

Crazy how quick I went from eyeroll to "No. Don't do it, man!" with Sirkis' character

He is so underrated

He gets his due credit for his mo-cap work, but people sleep on him playing himself. He also did a great job narrating The Hobbit and LOTR audiobooks. He goes 150% for the Gollum scenes.

All bs aside, this should be the goal for all of the tv stuff. If you want to make cheap nastalgia, make an animated series for kids.

I am so, so cautiously hopeful they don't mess this up. It's not even just the Disney thing, it's that so many great shows can't maintain their level of excellence. And yes, Andor was excellent.

I see the usual suspects are at it again

Can't remember if he hated/attacked Season 1 or not.

Gilroy teased the possible theatrical release of the first 3 episodes. Should be a great start to the season tomorrow.

quote:

"It's been discussed. We've mixed [Episodes] 1, 2, and 3 to play theatrically. They do need a little bit of an extra mix. We mix differently for how we deliver normally, because people watch on their iPads, on their TVs — it’s 5.1 [aspect ratio]. If you’re mixing for theaters, it's not like a switch. It takes a couple hours or a day to do that. So we have [Episodes] 1, 2, and 3. If there was enough interest, I'm sure Disney would roadshow it at some point. Why not? I think they have interest in showing [Episode] 12 going into Rogue [One], but that depends on how the show does. They look good on a big screen."

That was his review from season 1. I put it there as a joke.

I liked the show when I watched it live week to week, but I just binged it all again and it was so much better the second time around for me. So pumped for tomorrow.

Can't wait, but it kinda sucks to know where it will eventually end.

Agree. Watching one by one when it came out was great, but the rewatch was even better. So pumped for S2.

Why hasnt Tony Gilroy been approached about the new trilogy? He needs to do more SW projects. His storytelling is top notch

Hes worn out i think. They might have actually offered

quote:

“Man, I’ve been here for five and a half years, and then Rogue before that,” Gilroy said. “24 episodes. I think I’ve taken care of my patch of the garden pretty well, I think I’d like to try something else for a while.”
