<em><strong>ANDOR</strong></em> - Disney+ Series - A General Discussion Thread
Time

Some fun synthwave and flashbacks to TV intros of old…

 

Andor 1999 TV Intro (Spoilers)

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv73TRxbsb0 - a 2 minute video from the Craven In Outer Space youtube channel.
 

The blurb: 'If you were around back then - or had the VHS box set - you know the story. The primetime hit ANDOR (1975) ended on a nail biter that left fans hanging for almost a decade. Then, without warning, the network quietly greenlit a follow‑up and dropped it into the 1982 lineup.

It was ambitious. It was uncompromising. It was ANDOR 1999.

With visual effects that pushed the boundaries of early television and a continuation of Cassian’s story that kept fans talking for years after, ANDOR 1999 was the second life for a story we knew in our hearts wasn’t finished. Whether you watched it live or are just discovering it now, this is the season that dared to leap 20 years into the future and never look back.’

 

A bit like the 2 minute ‘Andor 1975 TV Intro (Spoilers)’ video from The Aurualnauts, back in 2022. 👍

 


 

From elsewhere online…
 

 


 

Rogue One is currently Disney+'s top movie (in the US). Despite being nearly a decade old…

All credit and kudos to Brandon Roberts & Nicholas Britell for their superb work on Andor. 👍

I’m fortunate to have been able to listen to all these in the background whilst at work over the past few weeks - some really emotive tracks in there; I especially love the 6 minute ‘Past/Present/Future’ epic - as well as the fun Niamos-based mixes!

 

 


 

 

The Sound of Andor Season 2 | #DolbyCreatorTalks

www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrAWHkGLn7g - a 45 minute video from the official Dolby youtube channel.
 

The blurb: 'Supervising Sound Editor, Re-recording Mixer, and Sound Designer Mixer David Acord and Supervising Sound Editor and Dialogue & ADR Supervisor Margit Pfeiffer join us to discuss the powerful, visceral sound of the final season of “Andor.” As one of the darkest and most grounded series in the Star Wars galaxy, “Andor” features a deeply cinematic soundscape — ranging from brutal hand-to-hand combat to haunting silence, immersive crowd scenes, and intentionally fuzzy radio transmissions. David and Margit break down their collaborative process, the evolution of the sonic language across the series, and how they used Dolby Atmos to bring audiences even deeper into the world of espionage, rebellion, and sacrifice.

“We want to make sure that the audience feels the threat and the danger of these weapons. The impact of those weapons has to be violent… A laser whiz by has to strike fear.”—David Acord, Supervising Sound Editor, Re-recording Mixer, and Sound Designer, “Andor”.’

Regarding Annoying &quot;<em>Can I get a link</em>?&quot; Posts
Time

One more suggestion from me (honest!)

❗ The correct way of… how to ask for a fan project …on the OriginalTrilogy•com ❗ - is pinned up in the Fan Edits and Projects for Other Properties section of the site.

Would it be worth me posting up 3 more threads like this in the 3 other ‘Fan Project’ sections of the site - in Star Wars Preservation, Star Wars Fan Edits and Other Projects, and Preservation of Other Properties sections, and having them pinned up?

They may be a little help / another step in trying to stem the flow of so many ‘link request’ posts from newer members - as well as something easy and simple others can point to in giving newer members a ‘heads-up’.

No worries if not - just spitballing ideas 😃.

Grand Admiral Thrawn said:

  • Force new users through a rules acknowledgment step, especially emphasizing “no link requests.”

Yeah, that seems a good idea - so many seemingly choose to ignore the ‘Welcome To’, ‘Help’, ‘About’, ‘How Do I Do This?’ and the pinned ‘Index & Help’ info threads located around the site here - let alone both the ‘site rules’ & ‘fan project rules’… and just make another needles and unnecessary ‘link request’ posts.

Some people do likely visit here through a direct link elsewhere online - though to not look around for any assistance or guidance on how to acquire projects is somewhat baffling… (despite having to register and activate their accounts on here)… with a few newer members expecting help by posting issues and problems in the actual project threads (and not in ‘General Assistance’ or ‘Forum Feedback’ sections of the site).

 

  • Auto-remove or flag posts that include phrases like “any links?” or “where can I find…” from accounts with under X posts or under X days old.

I’d be up for manually deleting the various ‘link request’ posts on here. In an effort to not only clean the threads of these disruptive posts - but to also try and deter that all-too familiar mindset of 'the person above me made a link request post - so I will now too’ type of posting.

Plus, it is a real pity some project creators and members have left here over the project threads becoming ‘link request’ zones. It’d be a boom to get as many returning here as possible - and may help assuage others who may also be considering leaving here.

Simply getting project threads to be about the actual projects themselves once again; with thanks, feedback, reviews, suggestions, the exchange of ideas, overcoming technical or editing issues, possible future versions, or just simply joining in the posts on what people enjoyed about specific projects etc…

What Do YOU Think Star Wars Should Do Next?
Time

 
So, now that Andor has finished (with all its compelling high quality storytelling and worldbuilding)… what now?

 
 

ANDOR Finale Review - What Can Disney Can Learn From the Best Star Wars Show?

www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rFiY5UUVw8 - a 30 minute video from the ScreenCrush youtube channel.

^ Note: the above video contains major spoilers for Andor 2x10, 2x11 & 2x12 (the final arc of Andor: Season 2).
 

The blurb: ‘Let’s dive deep into “Andor” and discuss what makes it stand out among other Star Wars TV shows. We’ll explore the show’s compelling themes, character-driven narrative, and production quality. Comparing “Andor” to shows like “The Book of Boba Fett” and “Ahsoka,” we examine why “Andor” succeeds in creating a powerful and engaging story. Join us as we analyze the differences in storytelling approaches and what lessons Lucasfilm can learn moving forward.’
 

^ Yeah, the above video, insightful as it is, is really an excuse for a bump to this quality thread (and engaging OP by Acbagel)

<em><strong>ANDOR</strong></em> - Disney+ Series - A General Discussion Thread
Time

Z6PO said:

Kleya & Vel spinoff when?!

I’d watch that.

A Dedra and Syril sitcom - based in their Coruscanti apartment, too. 😃

Mocata’s intriguing idea for Jynn and Saw series!

An ‘Adventures of Young Kleya and Luthen’ series as well, surely.

 

Hard to imagine before Andor that this character, with merely ~60 seconds of screen-time in Return Of The Jedi, will be in 40+ years time… considered one of the most well-written and most important characters in all of Star Wars…

 

With additional shout-outs to our new Rebel heroes introduced in this gripping masterpiece of storytelling and world-building…

Nemik, Cinta, Vel, Taramyn, Gorn, Brasso, Maarva, Clem, B2, Bix, Wilmon, the Time Grappler, Ferrix, the Dhani, Anto Kreegyr and his 30 men, the many divergent Rebel cells mentioned in Saw Gerrara’s ‘clarity of purpose’ speech, Thela, the Ghorm, Kino and the Narkina 5 crew, Freedi & Dewi, Niya, Kellen, Erskin, the Force Healer, and of course… Lonni, Kleya, and Luthen.
 

^ Not forgetting everyone has their own Rebellion… and even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward…

^ give these two their own show! 😉

 

About time we had a watering plants / botany-based Star Wars series, as well…

^ spoilers for S02E12…

and later Cassian watering his many plants in his home shortly before he leaves for Kafrene - probably thinking about Maarva and Bix…

 

 


 
 

Re-watching Rogue One - after viewing Andor

 
 

Watching Rogue One is so DIFFERENT after Andor…

www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bulroJdS8w - a 14 minute video from the Bombastic youtube channel.
 

^ Plus, this follow-up 10 minute video from Bombastic - ‘Wow, this hits different now…’ - when watching Star Wars (1977).

 

I Forgot That I Loved Star Wars | Why Andor Matters - 6 minute video from the ALLaBorde Productions youtube channel.

How Andor Changed Rogue One Forever - 10 minute video from Star Wars Explained; with full Rogue One watchalong video.

We Watched ROGUE ONE After Andor Season 2 & It Hit SO DIFFERENT!! MOVIE REACTION!! - 2h 30m video from Reel Rejects.

 
 

Other Rogue One content that felt different to me after watching Andor…
 

Cassian even hearing the name ‘Erso’ in Rogue One; that reaction… wow!

The Rings of Kafrene scene where Cassian shoots his asset, Tivik. I love the way Andor re-contextualises that. Also, the scene in Andor S2E07 where the Force Healer fixes Andor’s shoulder… that Cassian likely wouldn’t have been able to “climb”™ out of the corner he was in with Tivik in Rogue One without that (Tivik, with his broken arm certainly couldn’t)… all those small touches leading to and affecting later developments. Beautifully crafted. As well as mirroring Luthen and Lonni.

Every time Andor pushes back against Jyn in Rogue One feels much different now. He wasn’t being a cynic, skeptic or dismissive… he was desperate for proof the Rebel Council would actually accept… (it is now much more layered)… to give meaning and validation to Luthen’s sacrifice; “I’m not the one you’ve got to convince”.

When Cassian on Jedha says: “this town is ready to blow”… he’s seen Ferrix, Ghorman and likely other places erupt into that powder keg of violence… and now has that same all-too familiar feeling for Jedha.

More, though spoilers for Andor S02E12…

Tarkin admonishing Krennic for recent security leaks… the’re now not just talking about Bodhi Rook… it is Luthen as well. Perhaps Lonni, too. Mothma’s escape from the the actual Imperial Senate. Gorst being assassinated and his work lost as well. The bungled Imperial raid at Luthen’s shop… Luthen being killed whilst being in Imperial custody. Partagaz’s self-resignation (someone he was on first-name terms with, respected, and possibly considered a friend); Krennic was having a fairly bad and disruptive week - right to lead up of Rogue One. Then Tarkin taking the Death Star project from Krennic seems a much less ‘power grab’ move now, too.

 

As well as content like this…

 
and later…

 

Losing K2, Melshi, the Rebel soldiers based at Yavin who volunteered… then Blue Squadron, and the Rebel reinforcements…

The whole last third of Rogue One - well, yeah… that now also hits much harder. 😢

 

Plus those iconic last moments in Rogue One (before the Vader & Tantive IV scenes)

“Your father would have been proud of you, Jyn.”

That certainly carries a lot more weight and meaning after Andor - on many levels.

 

 

Although, Andor - as a series - works just as well on its own, too…
 

“More than anything, I wanted to end on hope.

I really want to be hopeful at the end of it. It is not just a way of creating another character for Disney and Lucasfilm.

It’s really much more about finishing on an up note and finishing with something that I think all the people who made the show really want to express, which is that in the end, we really do want to be hopeful.”

^ Tony Gilroy on the final shot in Andor (from this EW article) - and a 10 minute ScreenRant video - both contain massive spoilers.

Spoiler for the very last shot of Andor (S2xE12)
