Is anybody bothered about this upcoming Andor series? Take one of the least interesting characters from Rogue One (or any of the films for that matter) and make a series about them, seriously?

I don't really care what things are called, I'm more interested in what's going on. it'll be all early rebellion stuff which might be quite interesting in itself.

Well the Mandalorian and Fett series have stood or fell based on the main character (with a little help from their little green sidekick). If Andor is one of a set of main characters it might work, but if he is front and centre like Mando or Fett, I will give it a miss.

I enjoyed Boba Fett, it had its issues but then Star Wars always does. Loved that we got more Mando as well

I'll always watch new Star Wars stuff because I love it. I'll always go back to being a kid when I watch it. Same with the Marvel and DC stuff, takes me back to when I used to watch cartoons and read comics as a kid

If you want to break it down to be more serious then have at it, I treat it as it is and for what it is, a lovely set of stories told in space with some amazing characters and lore

I guess if you’re young enough to have seen the prequels as a kid, the new stuff will be a bit of nostalgia. For me, having grown up in the 80s, it’s so removed from the original trilogy that it leaves me cold.

And it’s not about breaking it down or being too serious imo - it’s just bad story-telling and characterisation with a bit of dodgy acting for good measure. If Fett wasnt set in the Star Wars universe, it would’ve bombed.

The younger Mon Mothma actress is in it I think, so there might be a 'higher level' view of the Alliance than just following a single operative about. Although, knowing how these things go, the commander-in-chief of the Alliance probably has time to consult with and issue orders to a lowly grunt. Wouldn't have had this in old 'good' Star Wars!

What's that?

I think there's a lot in the post-sequel series to appeal to OT fans. I enjoy them (mostly, Fett is a wobble) and have no interest in the prequels or anything SW was doing at that time.

In fact, a lot of what Filoni has done this last decade has redeemed some aspects of the prequels and made them broadly palatable, when I was content before to just jettison the whole lot.

They will also have the advantage that there is not a huge amount of back story they have to deal with when it comes to Andor so he can readily be reinvented how they like in this show.

I presume it'll hook into Rebels at some point even if only with the occasional cameo.

It'll be the 45th anniversary of the original Star Wars being released on the 25th.

Also the 17th anniversary of Istanbul but I don't think its to commemorate that (be nice if it was).

I was somewhat blasé on the Obi Wan series as I tend to swerve obvious reminders of the prequels (not that I have anything specific against McGregor or his portrayal of the character). However, seeing the early years of the Inquisitors has totally reeled me in (although the Grand Inquisitor looks really weird from those brief shots). I looked up a list of canonical inquisitors and apart from him, the guy with the wide hat is also from the cartoon, but everybody else seems to be new for this series. I wonder if Sarah Michelle Gellar will cameo as her Inquisitor at some point.

I wonder if desert filming is relatively cheap. Instinctively you'd think not. Bit I guess they aren't forking out on pricey hotels.

A lot of the filming for The Mandalorian was done on a virtual set, I'd guess the desert is a good fit for it.

"If there's an untelevised centre of the galaxy you're on the planet that it's farthest from"

I do get the repeated returns to Tatooine. It's seen (even briefly) or mentioned in all of the original or prequel movies, including being the first place we see. Even from early materials, it's one of the more fleshed out planets in the galaxy and is about as iconic a Star Wars locale that exists. I don't agree with it entirely, but there's a certain shorthand language to Star Wars that reduces the chance of casual fans not having any idea what's going on.

At least in this instance it's entirely warranted, Obi-Wan would have had a hell of a job keeping an eye on Luke from Dathomir.

Glad to know some one else finds that piece of music amazing. I assume it's a Williams score. He's done some iconic stuff (jaws?) But that is definitely one of my favourites.

Yeah it is Williams, the Obi Wan trailer also uses Battle of the Heroes from Revenge of The Sith. As patchy as the prequels were Williams sound tracks were all still top draw.

He has an incredible body of work overall, but his Star Wars compositions alone make him a legend. An amazing collection of themes:

Star Wars Main Title
Binary Sunset (The Force Theme)
Princess Leia's Theme
Cantina Band
Throne Room
The Imperial March
Yoda's Theme
Han Solo & The Princess
The Emperor
Parade of the Ewoks
Luke & Leia
Ewok Celebration
Duel of the Fates
Anakin's Theme
The Droid Invasion
Across the Stars
Battle of the Heroes
Anakin's Dark Deeds
Anakin's Betrayal
Rey's Theme
March of the Resistance
The Jedi Steps
The Resistance is Reborn
The Spark
The Rise of Skywalker
Anthem of Evil
The Adventures of Han

He's writing a theme for the Obi-Wan series as well.

Obi Wan trailer looks bloody good but guess that's about as good as it gets. Fingers crossed as heard how great the Mandalorian was for months then eventually got a chance to see it and after the 4th or 5th episode lost interest. The 8 year old that fell in love with the original movies is long gone  especially when the past 20 years Lucas released CGI laden drivel with awful storylines and uninspiring acting.

Yep. I thought at first... that it may be a plot point for later on in the series...

Spoiler
... but sadly no.

These young kids with little-to-no money, no work, no future, and no trust or belief in a future... on a desert planet where water as a commodity is shown to be both scarce and incredibly expensive... somehow also have new and shiny and modes of transport... that would require lots of water and money to keep running, clean and shiny as that. I mean, we've already established in the Star Wars universe that 'sand is course, rough, irritating, and that it gets everywhere' ;)


The colours and 'vibrancy' of the mopeds was meant to be some sort of homage / fan service to George and his American Graffiti film - but the newness, 'shinyness' and vibrant colours just didn't suit or vibe with the TBoBF story, and for many seemed to pull them out of that story.

Which is a bit of a shame, as there'd be nothing wrong or ill-fitting if TBoBF had shown showing a young subculture of mods having dirty, scuffed up mopeds - yet also showing them to be something the mods are proud of and is a part of their identity - but simply couldn't afford to keep their machines pristine and shiny looking...

Obi Wan trailer looks bloody good but guess that's about as good as it gets. Fingers crossed as heard how great the Mandalorian was for months then eventually got a chance to see it and after the 4th or 5th episode lost interest. The 8 year old that fell in love with the original movies is long gone  especially when the past 20 years Lucas released CGI laden drivel with awful storylines and uninspiring acting.

I also struggled with the Mandalorian early on. I put the show aside for several months after the first two or three episodes. I managed to get into it eventually though. I think the creators/writers heeded the lessons of the first series, as season two was much improved.

I said at the time, season one very much reminded me of Samurai Jack - lots of visuals and music telling the story, with relatively little dialogue. I don't think it was accidental, but I think they realised they had to mix it up a bit more for a live action show.

Christopher Lloyd is set to guest star in season 3 of the Mandalorian. There never used to be too many actors who had been in both Star Wars and Star Trek but the number has grown a lot in recent years with more shows on both sides. Having said that, if you discount people who didn't actually appear on screen (as in, provided a voice in Clone Wars etc or wore a full alien suit) then the list shrinks right back down.

Me too, but I am really glad I gave it another go.
