Star Wars: Andor

[Celebrim]

I am quite pleased by the refreshing lack of troopers, Jedi, and lightsabers.

And Tatooine. If we see Tatooine again, I'll scream. Supposed to be a nowhere world with just 40,000 official Imperial colonists, and yet of the 400,000 officially colonized worlds of the Empire we seem to go back again and again. And if we aren't on Tatooine, it feels like we are always on some world that looks like Tatooine.

The galaxy is a big place. It should feel big.

The abandoned warehouse firefight scene is amazingly inventive. Anyone complaining about the "slowness" needs to watch episode 3.

Silly question-is Andor. the only 1 of his race in these episodes? Other than the flashbacks .
When he looks down into the valley which looks like a temple was that location from lore?
The flashbacks reminded me of lord of the flies but like I said above any insights on what say the crew from the crashed ship was from etc

Pretty much all of those questions are still up in the air at this point.

I've only watched Ep1 so far (lack of time) and it was excellent. Dark for Star Wars, which is nice to see, and yet very much Star Wars. For a prequel show that no one really asked for, this is much more the kind of Star Wars I'd like to see. Invent new characters, go to new locations. Good stuff.

I do love the poor, earnest little red cube-droid (is his name just B?). He reminds me of B.O.B. from The Black Hole. Lying to people is so difficult he has to recharge afterwards? Just too cute.

B2-emo I believe. I think I got that from the subtitles.

Yup, B2EMO. No dash.

I wouldn't get too attached to it. Disney SW droids have a tendency to die.

Huh? BB-8, D-O, LO-LA59?

NED-B bites it in the Obi-Wan series (big yellow humanoid droid), but other than that . . . major character droids introduced tend to stick around.

Only those with speaking parts.

Besides NED-B in Obi-Wan (one of two significant characters to die, if I remember correctly - even the two Inquisitors who were stabbed in the gut got better), there's K-2SO in Rogue One and L3-37 in Solo.

ETA: there's also IG-11 in The Mandalorian.

NO DASH? STAR WARS has ruined my childhood.
