GET... READY... 

what happened tp tony?

Writers Strike. He is writer, but also the “show runner”.

Written by the same guy who is the showrunner and who wrote first season, and the same guy who wrote and directed rogue one, so this must be pretty straightforward

@@Afdog Tony Gilroy didn't direct Rogue One. The director was Gareth Edwards.

@@nikulus2840 ah, yep, you’re right He was the writer though

Wdym by unpopular?

Too bad Disney has decanonized all of its Star Wars media

​@@wyattcole5452 ...George Lucas never saw EU as his Star Wars, never. Yet he still took some ideas he liked from EU, twisted them to his vision and added to his productions. Do I really have to make you remember that George's Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, Prequel Trilogy, Clone Wars, The Clone Wars, all of them retconned EU hella a lot of times? To name some examples: - Boba Fett supposed to be imperial advanced stormtrooper - Owen Lars supposed to be Obi-Wan Kenobi's brother - clone wars supposed to be Jedi clones fighting aganist Republic - how, where and when characters died There's way more than meets an eye. George retconned his own ideas, created his own plotholes that he tried to explain better or worse, like: - why Darth Vader is not longer firstname and surname but title and name? - why Vader survived first Death Star when orignally he didn't? - why Stormtroopers aren't precise good shooters anymore? - why Vader has two faces in the same movie and Obi-Wan Kenobi too but in more movies? - why Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi got so old so fast? - why Vader never visited Tatooine where Luke walk around with his Skywalker surname? - why Owen Lars does not recognize C-3PO? - why Obi-Wan Kenobi does not recognize C-3PO and R2D2? - why Vader does not recognize C-3PO and R2D2? - why Darth Bane look different and is cursed? People also hates George's Star Wars productions since 1979 for reasons, like: - why he retconned EU? (look above) - why he reconned himself? (look above) - why (first) Death Star got destroyed so easily? - why Rebelion got defeated? - why Luke's father Vader twist? - why side characters of Luke became so useless? - why Leia and Han equally useless romance? - why these robodogs? - why another bears? - why Leia Luke's sister twist? - why another death star? - why game objective like shield? - why imperial soldier got so easily defeated by primitive bears? - why Palpatine became so pathetic in the throne room and with his death? Disney products, The Acolyte aren't different to what George Lucas ever did to Star Wars in general terms. It's the same overwriting EU in their own way, adding silly ideas and fixing their own plotholes with new productions. - Anakin Skywalker is still the only character born fatherless by the will of FORCE. - The twin sisters are born fatherless by the will of WITCHES. - Ki-Adi-Mundi is still hypocritical, too sure of his safety bucketbrain like Jedi High Council, Jedi Order are in Prequel Trilogy and The Clone Wars, like how Jedi ignored Qui-Gon Jinn warnings, like Darth Malgus in KOTOR Deceived told us, like Luke Skywalker in The Last Jedi told us. - Ki-Adi-Mundi's species age never had canon version, EU was never canon, so him being in The Acolyte doesn't change anything. I am still cautious about the twin sisters of The Acolyte. One witch said she created them. I hope it will stay this way and will be the origins of Plagueis' Force manipulation interests which in consequence The Force itself will respond with Anakin Skywalker. If not, if The Force itself spawned the twin sisters then I change side and hate Disney more than ever. Still not excuse to what Disney did with Sequel Trilogy overall mess. Rey Skywalker? Ha! Ahsoka Tano deserves Skywalker name way more than Rey ever did. All because they didn't let Rey to develop next to Luke like any good written character. She could be next funny Ahsoka but just an engineer and the mirror to the past of Anakin instead we got a female thief.

@@LukiKruki I personally don’t think of the prequels as canon frankly lmao, the moment they start to plan the first Death Star explosion the series goes down hill. But let’s state the obvious: he’s the creator. Doesn’t matter who you give rights to, the creator has the power to be an unreliable “narrator”, or rather storyteller, and yes he will and should get backlash but that’s not grounds for real decanonization, Disney’s bs is. And when political or ideological things drive so much, and when it’s from a company like Disney who go out of their way to destroy, rlly not comparable. Lucas at least creates

@@wyattcole5452 Disney didn't do real decanonization yet. It's still keeping it or recontextualization like George Lucas did. Because since KOTOR we know the cycle goes on and on, like Baylon Skoll also said, and Dave Filoni previously was working on Avatar: The Last Airbender from which George Lucas hired him instantly without questioning him much, and we know in George's sequel trilogy he wanted to make Leia Organa Chosen One, I believe Revan, Anakin and Rey are gonna be examples of generational Chosen Ones, like in The Avatar: The Last Airbender.

It's probably a hot take, but I agree! Andor is way better than Mandalorian!

Same, but Grogu is life

@@takemeseriouslyplx2124 I've always thought the Mandalorian was over rated and Andor was underrated and yes I know how highly rated it is I just think Andor was the best show that has recently released.

Much much better than the fan film Mando. Apples and oranges.

​@@takemeseriouslyplx2124 I'm happy to see others give it praise, I'm sick of people dismissing it because they find it boring because there isn't a fight scene or cameo every 2 seconds

A perfect pile of s#it?

Rogue One and Andor are the best live action they have put out by far

Other than the Mandalorian. S3 had its “wut da fuk” moments and even full episodes

Thats a releif. Hopefully disney start to be smart enough to use andor writers

Wait, a director of a fantastic movie and a writer from an excellent show? I almost want to get my hopes up for a good star wars product

You just wait. The first Jedi is gonna turn out to be a trans lesbian space witch

@@joshdelagarza231 It's really not. And don't like your own comments kid. Go get a new perspective on life, stop listening to grifters channels, go form your own opinions, and go touch grass. And please take a shower. A real one. And go get a job and a life and expand your knowledge beside that one brain cell is yours that's been corrupted and programmed by others to blindly hate. And hopefully you can move out of that adoption centers basement you're living in.

I would love it if they let him have another project. It has to be something off-cannon though (meaning not part of the Skywalker or Filoni-verse.)

You do realize that Tony Gilroy is as much of a lapdog as Dave Filoni.

@@mazkeraid4039 How? Gilroy basically got carte blanche for Andor.

@Rezzanine He defended Kathleen Kennedy, who, as we know, can be such a pretentious hag who doesn't carry the torch as we speak. Also, that doesn't apply to you because you can not pick up signs of their characteristics.

@@mazkeraid4039 If that was the case, he would never have got the . Laughably obvious!

Dewitt.

It's the best Star Wars media since Clone wars, you should watch it!

@@itaiharshoshanim-ib6kp no id have to get disney + again and I don't think it's worth it tbh

It’s. so. effing. good.

Nevermind that it was grounded in a bad way.

Watch the series finale end scene be the first scene of Rogue One, lol.

Solo was mid anyway.

If these people would actually know EU, they will understand why Luke Skywalker behaved in The Last Jedi in such way. Jedi and Sith are Yin-Yang, neither is good, neither is bad, there's a balance in the middle, Dai Bendu.

@@LukiKruki false. Originally Star wars had a more christian inspired view of the force - the dark side was the force corrupted. So much that the light side is never spoken as such by the characters in the Original Six Movies. The fight was between the force and evil characters. Gradualy the force evolved to be more manichaestic in the mind of the public - There were two sides, one corrupted and one good, they were both fighting and separate things still, but the bad side was given its own agency. Again in the minds of the public, the force had evolved to a more confucian the mindset- there were two sides fighting, neither could destroy the other, and they were in balance. Once again, the force evolved, this time to a more new-ager view- There were two sides, neither good nor bad, and the balance is the middle, you can be everything! And the consequences are no problem. As you can see, none of these other options are actually George's view, but other writers who came later. The force is not balanced in the middle, a middle doesn't exist. The force is only balanced in the light, as it is the balanced side. Evil is not natural, but an imbalance. Sorry for the massive text, and for any typos or strange spacing, my keyboard is currently messed up; Have a good day.

@@irmaosmatos4026 It's not some Christian bullsheet you speak about... All religions inspired Jedi and Sith in very basic allegory, that religious wars are stupid which Tarkin says. Original trilogy supposed to be good people vs bad people from the get go to show show cold war, vietnam war, how dictatorship is bad and that's it. When George Lucas then created Prequel Trilogy he wanted to show USA's democracy is badly ruled by corporations and how it can became dictatorship. He also wanted to show how war veterans aren't respected which inspired The Bad Batch. During OT originally Jedi were good and Sith were bad. Since PT both Jedi and Sith became radical ways of life, opposite sides of the same coin, of something once was balanced way of life. Balance became knowing when it's time to give and when it's time to take, selfless vs selfish - what Mortis gods represent. Cool enough, such balance can be found everywhere in our universe, like Earth too far from / too close to Sun, no or too strong gravity, carnivores, herbivores and omnivores. Prime Jedi, Dai Bendu, Bendu, Tython and its moons Ashla and Bogan are all about this Yin-Yang.

Well if you quit Star Wars wanna send hate to the mcu?

When u were born then ur mom said “utter piss”

Yes it will probably end after that but be happy for what we got

Final!! THANK GOD

Acolyte: a show that starts with A and no one thought would be good, but it is actually way worse than anyone could have expected.

You are absolutely on point ❣️ I have already watched Andor more often the even the Original Trilogy - and especially the little details make every rewatch worthwhile - I am absolutely thrilled for the final season 2 … but I have trust in Tony Gilroy and all the crew ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

@@takemeseriouslyplx2124I don’t think it’s worse than “anyone could’ve expected.” This implies that there were expectations in the first place

Oh my god someone that thinks like me!

@@WaffleWindow979 😁

Not going to save Kennedyfilm's SWINO though, it still does nothing for those, especially when it did Mon Mothma dirty.

@@mazkeraid4039so are you saying one “good” show doesn’t save a universe? Because if you’re saying that then you are 100% right But if you’re not saying that then what are you saying I’m confused (I just woke up so I’m tired rn)

I honestly don't care about the viewership. It's a small niche part of the Star Wars fandom that appreciate it anyways. There's no more after S2, so as long as they do a decent job of tying everything into Rogue One, I'm fine with it. It's not a show that's going to blow you away, but it has established it's own unique charm and intrigue.

@alienrefugee51 The only thing I will give credit for Andor is that it was cut down to 2 seasons, something The Mandalorian should have done. But that is all you need to hear that for me. It's too grounded, and nobody would care about tokenized backgrounders that don't stick with you. They are losers that had not won anything anyway.

⁠@@mazkeraid4039I also think the mandalorian should’ve only had 2 seasons, the third season was absolute sh*t, like seriously! If you did so good in season 2 then how did you do so bad in season 3, absolutely unforgivable
