Andor

Loved this

It’s got that Space 1999 vibe about it.

And for STW Guitarists who want to play the disco guitar theme, here you go.

The Andor awakens or Return of the Andor

Thread res….

I’m maybe 6 episodes in and really liking it…. star wars for grown ups and all that.

But I’m thinking I should watch some of the other “lesser” series first and then come back to Andor knowing its good.

So which others should I watch? And what is your order worst to best ??

Oh and I havent seen Solo yet. So please throw that film into your series list.

Honestly most of them are cr@p. Ahsoka felt like an entire series setup for the next series. The Acolyte I watched half of the first episode (Carrie Ann Moss is in it.. oh no she’s not!). Boba Fett was hopeless, Mandalorian is good for a couple of series but gets worse. Andor is the only good one really. And I say that as a big Star Wars fan.

Rogue One is obviously the 2nd best SW movie of all time. Solo is fun in a ‘I’m super hungover on a rainy Saturday afternoon and this just came on the TV which is nice’ kind of way. I’d watch it again.

The Obi Wan Kenobi series was poor, but there’s a fan made edit which somehow manages to make an enjoyable film out of it.  I’d recommend watching that rather than the series.

Ashoka is OK if you’ve already watched the Rebels cartoon, without that I’m not sure how much of it would make sense.

Mando is mostly great fun, Boba Fett isn’t.

Acolyte was fairly “meh” until the last couple of episodes, but has now been canned.

I didn’t especially enjoy Solo, but the general consensus seems to be “It’s not as bad as people said it was at the time”.

Agree entirely about Andor and Rogue One.

The rest is for the fan boys and girls.

Got free 3 months of Disney so I’ve been catching up.

Andor > Mando > Ahsoka > Boba Fett, but Boba Fett really is a part of the Mando set so if you watch series 1 and 2 Mando then Boba Fett, then series 3 Mando it all makes a bit more sense.

If you are time limited just watch series 1 & 2 of Mando and Andor. The other stuff is watchable and worth a look as we all like different stuff, though.

I’d put off watching Solo because of the reviews but I thought it was ok. A fairly decent stand alone film. Perhaps a little bit heavy on the Star Wars gap filling and back story but enjoyable as a Star Wars original trilogy fan.

Currently rewatching it with my boy,  just as good second time round. Hopefully the second (and final) series will be out early next year

Ah Kenobi… watching a 7 year old that looks like a 4 year old and runs like a 2 year old somehow escape from a bunch of baddies. It never really recovered from there.

Will give that fan edit a look though

Acolyte, despite some flaws really did get better and some of the lightsaber fights were awesome

Ahsoka you really have to have watched Rebels, in fact a lot of the animated stuff is great, but there’s a lot of it!

Having younglings has given me an excuse to watch the lego star wars stuff too, some of which is very funny

Rebels is brilliant.  Andor finally manages to convey the malevolence of the Empire.  I liked Kenobi, it showcases what happens to Kenobi after ROTS, which was needed.

The Mandalorian is great.  Ahsoka is okay so far, but I was expecting a bit more.  Rosario Dawson makes a great Ahsoka, so I’m hoping for better things from S2.  Agree that you should watch Rebels first.

The book of Boba Fett was rubbish.  I was expecting something similar to the Boba Fett trilogy of books from the expanded universe (which are brilliant) but no, we god mods on space Vespas.

The trailer for skeleton crew makes it look really promising, looking forward to watching that with my 8yr old! But not out for a while yet….
