Andor 1x7 and 1x8 Reactions | Announcement | Narkina 5

[@TealJosh]

Dedra is an amazing character. The most terrifying thing imaginable in fascism is competence. She's a massive threat to the rebellion. The leader or chair of ISB is right, she needs to watch her back, fascism detests competence.

[@sitting_nut]

so does usa regime, the modern empire. competence seem abhorrent to it as it murders and imprisons away. is it fascist, with its ruling elite of incompetent bureaucrats and oligarchs?

[@Biomirth]

Watch her interviewed. She's amazing. Here she is with the other women of Andor: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j2ioc4CdmpJ0iNE

[@ubersc00ber]

Love that the show uses her competence as a reason the audience should root for her when it is that same quality that makes her so dangerous.

[@wtimmins]

The dialog in this series are just... astronomical. It makes me realize how lacking a lot of other shows are.

[@funnylilgalreacts]

The dialog and delivery and pacing is so GOOD

[@wtimmins]

@@funnylilgalreacts There are scenes to come that will absolutely send chills.

[@BanyanTree1]

The first dialogue between Mon Mothma and Tay may be my favorite scene of the season. There's more tension and maneuvering in that scene than in some entire movies.

[@benjaminroe311ify]

@@BanyanTree1 YES. Honestly this series can't get underserved praise. It deserves all the praise for writing, acting, cinematography, etc etc etc. It's AMAZING and incredibly rewatchable just to catch all the amazing performances again and again...

[@dandybus1582]

Andor is the best Star Wars content we’ve had since Return of the Jedi. Hot take, I know. Here’s the deal: Every character on both sides of the struggle are deep and relatable. The empire is formidable again! No more of the stupid decisions we’ve seen time and time again in shows like the Mandalorian and Kenobi. All of the performances are fantastic! Mon Mothma is deserving of several awards for what she is able to convey in this show. The dialogue is superb, especially when the conversations have multiple meanings. We as the audience know the real intent of the discussions, but it’s easy to see how someone listening in without the context would be fooled. No God-Mode Jedi characters to deus ex machina troubles away. And while we know what characters will walk away because of their appearance in later shows/movies, their character arcs still carry meaning, showing us how they develop from who they are when the show begins to who they become in later films. I absolutely adore this show and I hope you do, too.

[@ferchrissakes]

1:06:17 And Melshi, one of the guys at Cassian’s table. He’s in Rogue One too.

[@jackransom.]

Team Nemik. He took the hit of Cassian being a hired gun and rolled with it. He even came up with an ethos to support it overnight. He will be missed : (.

[@Shawn_M]

Mon Mothma is challenging Avasarala for best dressed space Queen. She's BRINGIN IT!

[@kerouac.jackson]

The interrogation scene between Meero and Karn was interesting. She appeared to be trying to mentally beat him down, but Karn was relatively unaffected by it thanks to a lifetime of suffering similar abuse from his mother, only much more thoroughly. As far as this goes, Meero is still just holding his mother's beer.

[@Shad0w5carab]

So I was already hooked on this series at this point but WOW that scene between Mon and Tay took it to a whole other level. The writing and acting were just *chefs kiss* incredible. How they turned Mon Mothma from a throwaway side character to one of the most complex and captivating characters in the entire franchise will never cease to amaze me

[@rdkirk3834]

Then they wasted her again in Ahsoka, making her look like a dunce.

[@Dynnen]

The acting/casting/story/writing/cinematography/sound design throughout this series is absolutely bonkers. Glad you came back ❤️

[@jazzx251]

you forgot costumes and music!

[@benjaminroe311ify]

AMEN!

[@3mrwright]

Episode 7 is one of my favorite in the series. The Clem flashback scene is just so heartbreaking. Marva, Marva, Marva... that scene with her & Cassian was beautiful. The fact that Cassian helped inspire her to stand up to the empire is so poetic. Then we got mommy Mothma with Tay giving a performance of lifetime. Every time we see her she looks great. The wardrobe in this show is spectacular. Episode 8 (& 9) is where the audience stops rooting for Dedra. This show does such a good job of humanizing the empire. Look forward to seeing your reaction to episode 9 & 10. Thanks for the reaction

[@benjaminroe311ify]

YES!

[@m.e.3862]

Here’s to Xander 😁👍 Also you can just say it: Saw is nuts. He’s a loose cannon that Luthen tries to aim in the direction that works for the rebellion as a whole. And the dialogue between him and Luthen is probably some of the best in the show. Great performances by Forrest Whittaker and Stellan Skarsgard! I like the serious tone of the show. I also like The Bad Batch but the animated series always undercut themselves with stuff like goofball snoopy nosed battle droids that high five each other for a great tank shot or a tactical droid that actually uses binoculars. I really appreciate a show that forgoes all of that just for a change.😊

[@Shawn_M]

I think they've done a GREAT job with Saw's character throughout different shows/movies. He was always a radical but you see him get progressively worse. Culminating in... 'Bor gullet!' where he was so paranoid he couldn't even accept good news. So paranoid he suspected a girl he raised from a child might be there to kill him.

[@HelloThere.GeneralKenobi]

Fiona Shaw totally cemented the phrase, "Hate the character, respect the actor" in my heart. I do not hate Maarva, I became a fan of Shaw from this episode alone. I'm so thankful she became a part of the STAR WARS family. Thank you, Xander!! 👏👏👏👏👏

Narkina 5's prison facility is Amazon warehouses.

[@Valp85]

I know it's not our classic star wars fare but I love the scenes within the ISB. They're not mustache twirling bad guys or screaming fanatics. They are conducting that room like an ivy league professor and his PhD candidates would go about problem solving, and it is so compelling.

[@m.e.3862]

I compare them to the SS in the dispassionate way they consider people as a problem that needs to be solved or cured like an infection. The staff meetings remind me the film The Wansee Conference in their tone.

Another great reaction! The way we find ourselves rooting for Dedra until they start revealing just how terrifying a FULLY Committed - and Competent - Imperial truly can be, is just outstanding. Scene after scene, the writing, the acting, the visuals.. it's ALL top shelf. Easily one of the best shows i've ever watched. And speaking of excellent shows - As a fellow "Expanse" fan, who has the better wardrobe - Mon Mothma, or Chrisjen Avasaralla?? 😋 Thanks again for re-starting this show!!

[@funnylilgalreacts]

Chrisjen wins every time 😉 The thing that I love about Dedra is that she is able to display so much anger in just a tiny little lip twitch, but her words are so controlled.

[@aartsst3227]

@@funnylilgalreacts agreed - (on both counts) - focused controlled anger is just as frightening, if not more so, then uncontrolled outbursts

[@kirkdarling4120]

In her own way, she can do more damage than Darth Vader. For that matter, Tarkin did more damage than Darth Vader.

[@MbgFire2067]

That Mon and Tay scene still lingers in my head

[@spacemaster13]

Letsss gooooo Andor💜💜

[@MikeWood]

The conversation at the party between Mon Mothma and Tay was like a Shakespearean dialogue between two conspirators. :) And the closing of Episode 7 was reminiscent of Terry Gilliam's Brazil bureaucracy from the 80s. Did you recognize who was at the work table when, as K2 might have said, Andor was 'imprisoned in prison?' ;)

[@charlie53echo]

The parallel between the prison and the cubicle farm does such a tremendous job of demonstrating the values of the Empire: oppressive, clean, efficient...everyone is expected to act like crabs in a bucket, clawing their way up at the cost of those around them. Every episode is better than the last. Let me echo all the comments that are greatful you chose to give it another chance. 👍 Can't wait for more.

[@pseudonymousbeing987]

[@ferchrissakes]

Yup, Vel was meeting Luthen’s assistant - and you’re not the only one who had a hard time recognizing her with her hair down. She almost looked more like Carrie Fisher. But it’s her. And yes, Luthen wants Cassian dead. Like he said, Cassian’s disposable, he can identify Luthen, unlike Vel (who Luthen would likely also kill in a heartbeat if necessary) he’s not a committed rebel, and he’s completed the heist. Literally no upsides to Luthen letting him live, only risks. Others have said it, but the show made the Empire is a proper antagonist again. TIE fighters aren’t quite just gnats to swat away, officers are competent and cruel even when they’re toadies, and, heck, Stormtroopers can aim! And then to make a labor camp/prison where the prisoners do most of the policing and prisoners are split up based on homeworld to keep them from ganging up… Arresting a Mexican for walking while Mexican. The PORD. And cubicle farms too! The Empire has everything. Other than that: Yes, Maarva, yes, Andy Serkis, and yes, Mon’s wardrobe. Her and Avasarala, man. That’s the crossover.

[@AngeloBarovierSD]

What sometimes gets forgotten in the (entirely appropriate) praise of the acting in ANDOR is the writing. Stephen Schiff was the lead writer of the standalone episode "Announcement", which is a fulcrum for the series narrative, and he did a terrific job. His pedigree includes being a writer and producer on the spy-fi series THE AMERICANS. And it shows. Wonderful stuff, especially all the scenes with two characters talking. Everyone catches up with someone else in rudimentary scenes that become delicious through dialogue. But this next arc, (episodes 8, 9, and 10) starting with "Narkina 5", had Beau Willimon as its lead writer and that was an amazing "get" for a Star Wars series on Disney+. Willimon is not only a playwright (a medium which is more reliant on words than filmed media) but was also the showrunner (and thus head writer) for the first four seasons of HOUSE OF CARDS. His aptitude for doublespeak and conversational subterfuge which can still be understood by the audience is on full display in these three episodes. Heck, there is so much character on display in subtext and action, as well. In rewatching the series, I've picked up on storybeats and character cues I missed the first time around - consciously anyway. (It sits on Osmosis Hill which safely overlooks the Uncanny Valley, but that's a longer discussion and something for another time.) It's so wonderful to see how characters were built in subtle and organic ways. We knew who they were without being "told" who they were. And their pivotal choices felt natural because of it, without losing any tension or tragedy. When they instruct writers to "show, don't tell", _this_ is what they mean. The writing in this series is a league ahead of every other Star Wars series OR MOVIE. It's not for everyone, I'll grant, _because_ it's so serious, dense, and layered. Not everyone likes their Star Wars like this. ...but it sure as Sith is perfect for me.

[@SnazzyAI]

This is one of the best shows I've ever seen, regardless of it being in the Star Wars universe.

[@TheParagade]

One of the many things I loved about this show is that even the characters that are undeniably evil are compelling and enjoyable to watch.

[@TheParagade]

Like, I could watch an entire series about Meero and Partagaz. They're bad guys, and them succeeding at their goals is an objectively bad outcome, but it's so so entertaining to watch them succeed.

[@lewstherintelamon1726]

It took me way to long to start this series! I love that it takes its time with the characters and gives us a sense of the inner workings of the burgeoning rebellion and the Empire. And we finally get something new set on Corsucant!!

[@georgehamilton8330]

So happy you gave this a second chance when the time was right, and are as enthralled as I was. Incredible performances, all the characters with cast iron motivation, actors having a field day with dialogue and situations most actors would kill for, and sets, actual sets, a sense of scale and proportion, none of that shambling about in front of the volume. Give the writers all the chocolate, great work.

[@nefariousgremlin7554]

I really enjoy how all in all Partagaz is really respectful and supportive of Dedra. Interesting relationship between the two.

[@ReclusiarchLP]

The writing, the acting! It's sooo good! :D I love it, and I love this darker Star Wars I'm seeing! And I'll be honest - not used to this kind of amazing writing/acting in my Star Wars. =) Hope this is a benchmark for the going forward!

[@Drrck11]

I'm binge-watching Andor this weekend.

[@rexwilliams7643]

It is Star Wars, just the gritty, hard, nasty Star Wars that has to happen to enable a rebellion. I love the Jedi, lightsabres and the force but they alone would not have overthrown the empire. This series shows the nasty reality of rebellion.

[@preciousotoakhia9789]

Does the rebellion see clones as traitors because of order 66

[@mutley7773]

Another great reaction to the beautiful work of art that is this show. So well crafted in every way. Also, you might want to list this video properly as I only found it by chance by clicking on the Andor season 1 playlist.

[@operatorlink]

This show explains the concept of the banality of evil. Evil always doesn't have to just people doing obviously evil actions, it could be people just trying to do their job but fail to question their actions and how it affect others. In this show it shows right and wrong isn't clear, even people like Luthen is ok with putting people into sufferring in the name of rebeling against the system. So while you say Syril Karn is just doing his job, while true doesn't mean his actions would not cause harm to others. During WWII in germany there were lots of people who were also just doing their job, but their actions cause the death of many.

[@ianferguson5410]

I love that Cassian tells the magistrate that he is just a tourist when he was kind of a tourist while working for the rebellion. His experiences over the next few episodes definitely change that.

[@jackson857]

[@chris-hz2wd]

Andor is the best thing Star Wars has done and it was my favourite show of last year by a long shot. Yeah it’s cool to see Jedi sith and mandalorians, there weapons and Lore. Andor made Star Wars real. It’s our story in the Star Wars universe, what would you do living under a fascist regime? How would you react? With no special powers? Rebel. What would you do if you worked in the empire, believed in it, unhindered and a safe distance away from palpatine but needing to produce results from your demanding superiors? Crush the rebellion, it is a master class in writing and acting

[@JohnnyZ716]

I'd say starting with episode 6 is where it really started to get my attention. The start of the series was a bit drawn out and I can understand why so many thought that way, esp reactors bc the show didn't really give you much to actually react to. But now it starts to pick up. Stellan Skarsgard is my favorite of this series. His character is just so calm and cool. When he speaks, you're just drawn in to listen to his every word.

[@preciousotoakhia9789]

What does luthen think of order 66 and clones

[@cyberdan42]

At this point, Luthen knows that Cassian is primarily a mercenary, self-interested and not a committed believer in the Rebellion. So he is a long-term liability. The position Luthen has to take is that unless he believes someone is a true believer in the battle (and its inherent sacrifices), they constitute a security risk. So Saw, for all his mono-focussed fanaticism, is trustworthy because of that commitment. In contrast, Cassian is clearly not (yet) fully committed to the Empire's downfall (compared to Marva, as seen in her short and crucial speech).

[@Hamstar78]

The Narkina 5 Prison is inspired by George Luca's THX 1138 :)

[@cliveklg7739]

Every single actor in this show just delivers every single time they are on screen. It such a joy to watch. And heartbreaking the emotion they are able to bring out at times.

[@zipzeolocke2]

Melshi is probably one of the most important characters to remember because he is still with Andior in the movie Rogue One

[@carykneller1159]

One of the guys at Cassian's table is named Melshi. He is in Rogue One also.

[@thorinwoods2642]

The only one to remember at the table is Melshi. If you’ve seen Rogue One you’ll know why.

[@kirkdarling4120]

The acting in every episode is amazing. You should remember Andor's fellow prisoner Melshi. He was one of Andor's team on Scarrif in Rogue One. Saw is a character we've seen evolve through the animations to his end in Rogue One, and this is an interesting part of that evolution. We've seen Mon Mothma recurring numerous times in later-time Star Wars stories...with no sign of her family. And this point, Andor actually seems to be the least important character of his own series. All the other characters are a lot more interesting. By the end, though, you realize that's planned.

[@Ayaron]

One thing I love about this series is for the first time in Star wars it shows the real danger of fascism. It isn't evil wizards or blowing up planets. It's a system that grinds and oppresses *everybody*, those who oppose it, those just keeping their heads down, and the people working in the system. Cassian refuses to join the rebellion and gets arrested just for walking on a beach. Cyril supports the system and runs afoul of politics so gets sent to bureaucratic hell. Everyone working in the system is terrified of messing up, standing out and losing their position. It doesn't matter who you are, fascism treats all people as disposable. And I think Andor is the first time Star Wars has tackled that head on.

The acting, on this show, raises the bar so much for other shows. The heist is the weakest part of this season and it wasn’t even that bad. But everyone’s performance, especially the “extras”.

Watching the reactors and other channels covering this, I actually find the heist my favorite arc, aside from the Ferrix uprising. I like the location and characters and how they're doing drills and then the heist itself. It felt very well paced to me. I know the prison arc is many favorites, but the tedium of the work and set (just like a prison), gets to me, and that is great too, but not something I really enjoyed.

Just think, if their systems were more connected, they would know that they have Andor in custody already. It's the same problem in our own government, the left hand doesn't know what the hell the right hand is holding.

"I don't even know what they are making. This could all be for nonsense for all I know." The Empire is an organization ruled by cold logical and hard discipline. They don't assign tasks without a definitive goal. Nonsense is not something Imperials tolerate very well... "Wow. The empathy." Prison is not a place that fosters or engenders empathy among its inhabitants. In fact, lack of empathy is a large part of why most of the prisoners end up there...

That prison would be my worst nightmare. I despise feet.

@@funnylilgalreacts Depends on the prison. You have prisoners getting shit like free iPads like that here in the US. New York I think it is. Prisons are being turned into little more than summer camps these days. I don’t believe in ghosts but I love those ghost hunting shows, and one I’m watching now called Destination Fear is constantly going to abandoned prisons. You wanna hear about horrible prisons, they’ve gone to prisons where the inmates were stripped naked and chained to their beds. Or another one where inmates were left in pitch black solitary confinement for so long that some of them actually lost their sight. I think even I would take the Narkina prison over that. I’m all for punishing those that deserve it but some of the shit that happened in the past is just insane. Even today, or in the very recent past, there are certain people with broken bones being refused medical treatment for months or others being held in solitary confinement for years without ever receiving a trial though.

@@putinscat1208 Do you enjoy watching other people go to the bathroom?? Don’t know about you but when I’m at a urinal, my eyes do not move away from the wall directly in front of me, even when I’m alone. There’s a fetish for everything, I seriously regret coming across certain videos online, but the people that will watch you do your business are few and far between. And if you are someone that “watches” and you get caught peeping on someone in a prison, it’s highly unlikely to end well for you. Depending on the prison of course. Either way, the lack of privacy is little more than a light slap on the wrist.

@@putinscat1208 You seem to be mixing up who you’re replying to. You brought up no privacy when going to the bathroom so I talked about going to the bathroom. And where did I ever say I liked prison??
