Couldn't agree more. Star Wars fan films and the best out there. The fans are far more dedicated to the history and feel of the series than any studio.

[@ASSASSIN19923]

Disney is a evil company and wants only political correctness. They dont give a fuck about what are fans desire . They said will be no more Star Wars movies but still milking the dead series .

[@brianschumacher5914]

The same could be said for Trek fan films. However when those studio clowns came down on the fan directors that was unfair. When Discovery was in script and story production there were fan films coming out that were truly Trek based and Discovery panicked because they were far better and they had to stop it, sad when your content is far better than theirs, but that is what makes fans the way they are.

This is absolutely awesome, I'm am so fucking ready. I really dig how you're putting a face to the faction that is usually just faceless bad guys and really putting in the grittiness of combat - admittedly, the Empire did some horrible things but that's a part of war - civil and otherwise, no faction ever wins the war completely clean. So seeing a movie from the perspective of the troopers is VERY needed, so thank you guys for going this route. The Mandalorian briefly had a moment of it but went back to the standard. I really really hope you guys keep this direction and the quality.

@@themole4369 That's true, It is about the author to be honest, canon or legends. Like in the canon book battlefront twilight squadron they depicted them right, but since the bad batch we all know that only screen stuff counts and written canon is just a secondary thing wich can be retconned anytime. And in tge screen stuff (Rebels, Resistance, Mandalorian...) they are depicted as braindead fools. Unfortunately I think we can thank this to Dave Filoni :(

Andor does a pretty good job of portraying the Empire. The banality of the evil they commit is portrayed quite well. Its not like they're just misunderstood patriots, they're conquering systems then enslaving them while exploiting resources, they'll kill their own troops for failure or sacrifice them without regard to achieve victory, commit genocide (sterilization of Geonosians), kill civilians if even a small portion of them Rebel. It's cool to see some Stormtrooper content but if they leave out the fact that lots of those soldiers are fine committing war crimes then its not exactly as authentic or as gritty as it could be. Its like making a Boba Fett series where he's a lawful good guy all of a sudden (oh wait Disney already did that). Book of Boba Fett would have been much better if they just stuck to the original and gave him some anti-hero "Fist Fully of Dollars" flavor story arc in a sea of scum and villainy.
