"Star Wars means so much!" Diego Luna and the Andor cast on auditions, tricky lines and falling over 

It is good but some people are just burned out from how bad Star Wars has become so it’s kind of understandable, honestly.

They haven't advertised it very much, did they? Maybe Disney prefers to advertise She Hulk instead ;)

@@chasehedges6775 Yeah that can't be right because Marvel has released mediocre/worse content at triple the rate. Andor is just an experimental and different series not relying on gimmicks. Ahsoka and Mandalorian S3 are still going to be huge.

@@ArmaHipHopTV That’s true but still Star Wars and Marvel have both been hit or miss.

People have been put off Star Wars due to the terrible new trilogy, that sidelined all the characters of colour when Finn should have been the lead Jedi and the mediocre Star Wars shows, so Star Wars no longer have a broad enough mainstream audience. It is a shame Andor is suffering due to this because it is the best ever thing Star Wars have done. Star Wars for adults with great acting, writing and production. This might not get a second season due to the low interest in the show.

agreed - he fits. the part so well

100% - Diego Luna is amazing in this role.

His surname means Moon, so there is a relation to space right there La Luna de Endor

Fr, the fact that he even remembers Jyn Erso is quite impressive most actors don’t really give a flying 💩 about past projects and forget about them. You can really tell he has both respect for the franchise and his character. And also the dedication to play Cassian

@@veryberry_yt oh I’m not surprised I mean after all she was the first strong female character in Star Wars! Fuck Diego Luna.

Honestly this show already have a plan throughout and know where to end, so if people don’t wanna watch it, their lost, we’ll enjoy it ourselves

My opinion: this show is better than HOTD

@@jonathanpluto4362 Same, and that isn't meant as a knock to the excellent HOTD

Emmys are biased I don’t take them seriously anymore

@@DeutscherPatrick I sort of do because they have nominated The Mandalorian for best series twice.

For me what makes it un-star warsy was that there is no convenient plot device, no awkward dialogue and no plot armor lol.

​@@dentangaji6161 yeah and also its not just jedi star wars, it blurs the lines between good and evil and i love that

Thats literally how i describe it when people ask about the show. "Its the least star wars piece of star wars cinema and its fantastic"

I don't think I understand that, yet I think I understand it 🙂

If you go by theme, it's not a Star Wars But if you go by concept, it's definitely Star Wars. To me, Star Wars was always about the people who struggled and fought to rise against a fascist and oppressive faction. Squadrons is also very Star Wars to me because it's galactic space dogfighting, whereas Andor is the most grounded and "realistic" settings for the rebel faction. Han, Luke and Leah are the action heroes who picked up after the hard work of those who died for a better future.

He's so sweet

It's like friends asking me what the difference is between Spain and Mexico. In Mexico they have a little more freedom and mischief in their eyes. Which, uh, is why Pan-America rules. We're sexy and we have better food and stuff. Apple pie with chili- don't ask why.

He got that hurt puppy vibe going on.

@@adamplentl5588 yeah and I had the luck watching him live doing some stuff. He is really sweet and heart killing smile.

most people who actually watched it like it. Some people just haven't given it a chance

I’m as cynical a Star Wars fan there is. I hated the sequel films, Book of Boba, and wasn’t too hot on Obi-Wan either. Andor is by far the best thing Disney has done for Star Wars. I love Mando, but this is special.

So you like everything???

@@Drako7077 i like good things. This is the best star wars show since mando. Obi wan was a disappointment and book of boba fett sucks. But people who don't like this show keep saying oh its slow and dull. As if they can't go five minutes without seeing exploding stuff. This is the most character focused star wars thing to come out in my lifetime.

Ikr even Star Wars Theory hates this show. "Not enough action", and "its too slow" is his main comments.

It truly is!!! It is BRILLIANT!!

Not woke like the power of the rings

understatement of the year!

I was thinking Max Von Sydow would have been a great alternative but maybe a bit too old.

@@dave210yt hes also dead XD

@@thomash6933 lol. makes it difficult for him to do the show 😂

His conversation with Whitaker (Saw) was classic.

@@thomash6933 not to mention he already played a character in TFA, though I can't fault anyone for forgetting about anything that happened in that film.

Exactly! None of the players in this show are heroes. They're complex and morally ambiguous, oftentimes willing to burn others for personal gain. Really the only genuine "heroic," moments in the show are when its masses of average people acting together for something greater; the prison break and Rix road. And its no accident that in both of these moments, Cassian takes a back seat to the action. He passes the speech to Kino at the prison break, and he quietly slips away with Bix during the Rix Riot. There are no overblown one one showdowns. There is no space magic or space wizard with a magic sword. There is no chosen one to save the day. There is no prophecy. Its just workers and mothers and sons and daughters and anonymous dissidents putting their lives on the line to build something better. Its truly inspiring and while the heroic moments in the original trilogy still have resonance, they don't hit quite like this.

It is phenomenal. It builds tension like no other. And you have to pay attention to what is on screen. It really isn’t your average pop corn pew pew show

@@martinjrgensen8234 that's why I like it so much. The presence of the empire feel like a constant shadow everywhere. Love it. It is seriously underrated.

Unfortunately there is a lot of simple minded people out there and they all have the internet

@@sonny9493 yeah the simple minded ones are the people who dare have a different opinion lol

I dont wanna sound dramatic, but if general audiences cant even have the attention span to sit through the first three episodes and watching suspense-building, then something is really wrong, i mean how tf is this boring when they literally put a bunch of action into the opening episodes to intrigue ppl, and they cant even wait long enough for that. Its ridiculous, i thought attention-span problems was mostly for the Alpha and Gen Z but now it just seems everyone cant even have some damn patience

you mean the best Star Wars Disney has ever done?

I didn't realize she played Yennefer.

@@LordShrubI think she voiced her in the Games

She doesn’t. Just in video games

That’s Denise Gough.

Her bullseye deadpan delivery of the technobabble not once but twice in the interview had me rolling. You can tell she probably stayed up at nights drilling it into her brain and now can't get rid of it.

He's great - I knew him a little at university, and even back then he just had this effortless charisma that instantly put you at ease.

Agreed!

She doesn’t fit the description of a Targaryen hve u read the books

@@joseskariakochumuttam9366 No I have not read the books. I see Targaryens in the TV series and she looks/acts like she could be a Targaryen. Good enough for me.

@@TheRumblewagon She feels like more of a Lannister to me.

@@joseskariakochumuttam9366 some of Targaryens were pathetic, ugly and fat. Like Aegon IV. You clearly don't know about their history

Same

Watch Stranger Things 4

Better than the boys 3 and house of dragons?

*my favourite disney show of the year

@@strikerbowls791 I have.

You are right. I agree with you yes, absolutely spot on what you say about it.

And then Episode 10 exploded onto the screen....holy shit....amazing

I believe from the beginning they said the show was going to have only two seasons; not because Disney didn't want more, but because for Tony two seasons were enough to tell the story he wanted to tell before the events of Rogue One.

Originally it was five seasons but got cut to three seasons cos the key actors didn't want to do five seasons. Then it was later announced they were cutting it down to two seasons cos the show is such hardwork. So instead of it being one season = one year, every three episodes of season 2 will cover a year. And that takes us up to Rogue One/A New Hope.

@@tessag7276 Also because Season 1 was a pain in the ass to make, it would be too exhausting for the crew to make 4 more seasons.

This isn't just the best Star Wars show, this is the best thing to ever come out of Star Wars

@@Mopark25 if the finale is good, then it will be better than anything else they’ve ever done

One of the best peices of Star Wars content ever made so far

@@chasehedges6775 agreed and are you enjoying it
