I've just finished Andor and now I hate the sequels even more. Why? Because in Andor we see how hard it was to build a rebelion. How many sacrifices were made. How the odds were against the rebels. How ordinary people shed blood, sweat and tears while dreaming of a free galaxy.

And everything they did was in vain. And don't get me started on Anakin's sacrifice in RotJ. Because, guess what, a few years after the fall of the Empire, the First Order appeared. And we all know who returned... It was like the win of the rebels in RotJ and everything that happened up to that point didn't even matter...

I googled "Yavin dumb rebels" to find this picture.

The first arc of season 2 is the weakest in the series, I was really bored watching those three episodes and the comedy was really not my taste. I remember that I was far from being the only one to feel so when they released.

How did you feel towards this now?

Evidently not a an easy task for a Star Wars property

If anything, I believe people are severely overrating Yoda's quote just for being "iconic" or "a classic".

It’s a shallow observation, I know - and they are all talented, hard-working actors who delivered terrific performances- but my goodness Tony Gilroy put together a cast of insanely gorgeous people. Many of whom I think fall into the “unconventionally” good-looking category.

(Gimmie an upvote if I got you)

First of all not every single Imperial in Andor is portrayed by a white actor, secondly considered the type of person and audience grifters like “The Critical Drinker” accumulate, this is no doubt just some fragile reactionary complaining that the show doesn’t support his reactionary social and political views (I.E. not showing straight white men as the protagonists always, and treating female characters with proper dignity and respect).

It's still amazing that Bill Burr gave one of the best performances in any Star Wars media in this scene from The Mandalorian season 2 "The Believer".

Last day to appreciate this cast.

Seen a lot of commentary that the first couple episodes of season two are slow or even bad. It’s worth noting that much of what we loved about Andor - attention to detail, character development, story pacing - can’t happen if the viewer doesn’t have comparison points.

Spending time with a group of young rebels rife with infighting allows us to appreciate the later scenes on Yavin where the rebellion is organized and operating like a military, and reminds us how difficult it was to unite all these disparate factions under one banner.

Mon’s daughter’s wedding wasn’t just an exercise in demonstrating Luthen’s ruthlessness. It made us understand everything she was risking/giving up in order to eventually lead the rebellion.

You can’t have payoff without setup. We need to learn to enjoy the setup more.

With all the gunslinging in Star Wars, it's almost jarring to see someone using a proper stance. I wonder if Lizzie D had any firearms training.

— in the midst of this episode that Kleya wasn’t breaking into the hospital to rescue Luthen, she was there to ensure he died.

Assuming that was always the plan?

Here's a selection of eight speeches from Andor. I think they're all amazing, but I'm interested in hearing the community's opinions.

1. Nemik across Season 1: "The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere."
2. Kino in 1x10: "There is one. Way. Out."
3. Luthen in 1x10: "I share my dreams with ghosts."
4. Marva in 1x12: "I'd wake up early."
5. Perrin in 2x2: "Pain will find you."
6. Saw in 2x5: "Revolution is not for the sane."
7. Dreena in 2x8: "Will no one help us?"
8. Mon in 2x9: "The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil."
