Andor is leading up to Rouge One, hence some of the same Characters. Also same writer/creator for Andor and Rouge One
Yeah I’m aware. But watching Rogue One as a stand alone product, while I enjoyed it, I didn’t really care about any of the characters or feel any real connection to them.

Weird, I cried after each and every death.

Loving Andor season 2, but episode 8 was the first holy s**** episode of the season, I think surpassing The Eye and One Way Out in season 1. What a show.

Holy shit Andor is so good. That last scene actually choked me up. Idk the last time that happened with any show or movie.

Insanely good storytelling. How are we supposed to move forward after this? I have no confidence in Disney to be able to continue with anything else this quality. I’d say ending season 2 as strong as season 1 makes Andor + Rogue One easily the best Star Wars content since the OT.

I watched both seasons of Andor and then I had to watch Rogue one. Omg. So good. Season 2 was amazing and it tied so many things together.

Not sure if anyone's been watching Maul - Shadow Lord, but it's pretty 🔥.

Penultimate episode & finale today were pretty great.

Happy Star Wars Day!

It's pretty funny but the "first" three movies, if truly followed by A New Hope, make pretty clear what a small universe it is. All these people are related! And then the last three movies make increasingly clear that the rest of the universe doesn't actually care about any of it. They're just living their lives while these weird cults of Jedis and rebels and fascist warlords try to kill one another in increasingly ridiculous battles.

Also how the events of Rogue One and a New Hope all unfold in the span of less than two weeks, where the Empire goes from finishing and unveiling their superweapon to having it blown up.

It's why I'm pretty firmly in the camp of saying the only truly good Star Wars movies are ANH and ESB. People rightfully bag on RotJ for the Ewoks and Han having nothing to do but Leia being Luke's sister is such a stupid plot twist/contrivance. I get that it comes up during the duel with Vader but it reeks of fanfiction and shrank the universe so much.
