Fuck me Fett was cartoon bullshit, but man Andor is so very good, I'm upto episode 8. Totally got characters, depth, intelligence. Awesome, TBH best Star Wars I've watched. Makes the Empire really evil, the evil of paperwork and management. But also shades of grey, cos some they believe they're doing the right thing.
I think if they met in the middle ( like Rogue One……dark, violent yet with enough pew pew stuff ) they would have made an absolutely fantastic show.
I agree with Fett’s faults but Andor was just TOO slow burning for me.

Proof that @MN5 is still a 10 yr old kid at heart. Andor is the best of these SW series for me.
I know what I like old fella. Would you like me to fetch your pipe and slippers ?
Trouble is that you keep wanting ANH level of kidult entertainment. Nothing wrong in that, it is probably my favourite movie ever because of that.
That ship will never likely be recreated. They tried hard with E7 (and with E1) and didn't come close.Meanwhile we have this amazing universe in which to tell stories and as much as some Mando eps are cool, no one has used the SW Universe really well until Andor IMO.

I agree and disagree. I mean…….Palpatines speech to Anakin was pretty dark….would love to see a prequel and find out what went on there…..I even have a title for it “Palpatine: Rise to Power”…….
The overdid the fuck out of the kidult shit in the prequels. I hated Finn screaming “Reeeeeeeeeeeey” at the top of his voice. I hated Rose, I didn’t like Poe……..
Andor had a great finish which I appreciated but needed more action on the whole.

I remember seeing the first big battle involving Jedi in Attack of the Clones. I was absolutely shocked when a few of them got killed. Definitely not as invincible as I first thought.
As for J Fett shooting one dead single handedly. Wow, what a legend !

Indeed, Jar Jar is a pretty crap character but no way is he as bad as people would have you think. George Lucas to his credit took on board the feedback and he was pretty much never seen again.
Really? George Lucas was still pretty visible even after that terrible film. But he did admit it was bad...
George Lucas Always Knew He Went Too Far with Phantom Menace
George Lucas admitted a long time ago that The Phantom Menace was too disjointed after an early screening.
