‘Andor’ Is The Best ‘Star Wars’ Entry Since ‘The Force Awakens’

2015 was a great year to be a fan of “Star Wars”. “The Force Awakens” came out in December and, in the months that followed, everyone talked about the last installment in the Skywalker saga.

And I mean everyone. Memory Daisy Ridley Appearing in Good morning America Discuss their role as king, and all panelists heately discuss whether it could be palpatina or one. A proud woman told her that her son believes that king is a Ken-Aoi, Making sure to clarify: “Am I pronouncing that, right?”

The emotion about “Star Wars” remained for approximately two years and generated emotion for “Rogue One”, which adds greatly to the success of the Spin-Off movie. There were some who did not subject those who felt that “The Force Awakens” was too similar to the original trilogy, but in general, they were all excited to see Luke Skywalker returning to action.

Until “The Last Jedi” came out in 2017 and all SH-T hit the fan. There were shouts that it was “too awakened” and, nevertheless, in some way “too racist” from the opposite sides, with a fight on social networks that looked like the presidential elections of the United States. Or it was “the best” Star Wars “or” The Sausage “Star Wars” movie “and there was no way. Fortunately, the” passion “has died in recent years, we are too exhausted by everything else these days, but essentially stole any good will that has existed for the trilogy of the sequel.

That inertia quickly infected “alone”, a history of solo origin of Han that absolutely no one had asked, and made the public doubt in seeing “the rise of Skywalker” when he summarized the Skywalker of 9 episodes fell everything, many things, many graduates who is king? Oh, she is not important. Who is the supreme leader Snoke? Oh, well, it’s dead, so I guess that doesn’t matter much. Do you remember that actress of “Game of Thrones” that you loved who is playing Captain Phasma? Oh, she is also dead.

The questions I expected to be answered? Missing. The destiny of resistance? Confined to the characters that were stopped aboard the Millennium Falcon at the end of “The Last Jedi.” At least, in the original trilogy, you have the feeling of the rebellion and the biggest fight. The end of “TLJ” suggested that a reborn organization of the Empire faced the resistance of … all twelve people.

It was clear that the expectations of “The Rise of Skywalker” were low, and only lower after Colin Trevorow separated from Lucasfilm, leaving JJ Abrams to stay where he left it. It seemed its energy to finish the franchise also Daned; Not only, hey, he retonated the idea that King was a “nobody” by turning her into Palpatine, hey also withdrew Poe Dameron’s background history of what Allamy’s leg has accumulated in other media. And do not make me start on the line, “in some way, Palpatine returned”, which continues to mock until today (it really gets worse every time you listen to it).

Disney came to a victory when they launched “The Mandalorian”, What was a new new version of “Star Wars” that existed outside the Skywalker saga and did not present the iconic light saber battles or force that force. He allowed Lucasfilm to get into the sandbox and play with many other ideas. Some were worth it, while others, such as “The Acolito” and “Boba Fett’s book”, crashed and burned.

Only the first “Andor” season was with a lot of love. It was labeled for a long time and boring, comparable to the fiscal debate shown at the beginning of “The Phantom Menace”. The first season recovered and led to a satisfactory final that delayed the public for a second season. It is good that they did, because Tony Gilroy He made sure to throw everything into the wall and somehow managed to hit the landing.

When taking out of World War II and the events of the real world simultaneously, Gilroy managed to create a new son of the history of “Star Wars” who felt modern, and still invoked the nostalgia of the original trilogy. The second season consisted of four series of three episodes, each of a separate year, which led to the first minutes of “Rogue One” so that fans could create a clear timeline of Cassian Andor’s trip to join the rebellion.
