This series hasn't felt like a show, but an actual film made by filmmakers. The Coruscant party scene with Mon Mothma is a perfect scene in every way. I really, really can't believe how good this show is. All expectations of mine have been blown.
@@sharjeelkhan2576 you don’t need to know anything about the story, but you should know at least a bit about the setting I’d say. Basically it’s set in a sci-fi universe with FTL travel and laser guns where a galaxy-spanning republic recently fell and became an authoritarian empire, and this show is set when a rebellion is first forming. It might be a little confusing if that’s ALL you know, but there aren’t really any like, specific story moments from the movies mentioned.
This is a perfect example of how you do a trailer. You’re not getting a synopsis or plot of the the entire series, but it perfectly gives you a setting and a vibe. That’s a trailer!!!
Not to be a bummer. But I really hope this is all about ANDOR not a bait and switch. With what Star Wars and Marvel have been doing, which they only rely on the show title. And completely show other “side characters” as more important. And ultimately give those characters a spin-off. It’s so formulated and repetitive now.
Luthen's speech in Ep10 was epic and deep. The writing for this series is fantastic and the acting superb. The best series out of The star wars franchise yet
Andor is what I THOUGHT all Star Wars would be with Disney budgeting. The best writing. The best sets. The best actors. The best emotion and execution. Watching Andor makes almost all other Star Wars content look like a joke now. Even the Filoni/Favreau stuff everyone creams themselves over feels like kids playing with action figures compared to this. What a masterpiece... can't wait for Season 2!
I could not agree more with you. Andor (alongside with Rogue One) is the only Disney era SW competent enough with deeper meaning behind the beloved universe. A great proof that you do. not need a lightsaber to make a good SW movie.
I also agree. I tried watching Mandalorian again after Andor and I just couldn't do it. It was like trying to eat a bowl of skittles as a meal just after experiencing an evening of fine dining in Paris: fun in small doses but lacking in substance and heart
Call it... war. This is the writing we deserve. I really want to especially acknowledge Rogue One was the best Star Wars flick, dare I say ever. I think it captured what the original trilogy wanted and couldn't do.
I believe this to be a way more carefully planned and designed background for the show than any other so far. And its all cinematic which creates high expectations and i cant lie im hyped for this one
It's painfully obvious that there is a difference in this show when compared to Book of Boba or Kenobi because it looks like it's a movie with the massive scale of the shots and good special effects. It feels like the budget was ramped up 10x and I'm not sure how it can be so different than the other shows but I'll be excited to watch. Whoever was in charge of the budget and planning for this needs to be at the front of every other Star Wars production
I remember how little interest I had in this show when it was announced. When I saw this trailer I reconsidered, and it made me want to try the show. Now, assuming the final two episodes stick the landing, I genuinely think it's probably my favorite live action Star Wars production, ever
@@thebigshep They’re probably going to rush the ending. They’ve wasted too much time. The plot line about his sister probably isn’t going to be resolved, and we probably won’t get any more flashbacks.
There was an ak47 in the first 8 seconds of the trailer.... Starwars essentially invented Sci fi props and they don't even try anymore. Pedo disney is a disaster.
@@Wayzor_ in fairness, basically all of star wars guns are slightly modified real life guns. The E-5 is a british sten gun i believe, the sandtrooper gun (dont't remember the name, but its in a new hope and is very long) is a german MG34. the issue is how well known the AK is, and that they didn't disguise at all. besides that, the trailer is fantastic.
Without a doubt, one of the best things to come out of the franchise. An incredibly grounded Star Wars experience that is also emotional and well written. Not rushed into production, not filled with meta-commentary, marvel humor or stale references to blue milk. Every frame feels like it was lovingly crafted. Every character feels alive. Everything I love about this universe is in this show.
@@fotomaton7852 Yep. Leave it to this show to make me eat my words. Dammit Lucasfilm, why'd you have to do a close up of blue milk just to prove me extra wrong?
@@carlotta4th Greig Fraser. He also did Dune, the new batman and mando season 1. And no, sadly he won't be returning. However, the new guy worked on Game of Thrones and Broadwalk Empire and actually won three emmys, so we should be fine.
Andor is not just a good Star Wars show, it's good television. Period. Infact I would say it's easily one of the best shows I have seen. Each and every single episode of Andor is a master craft of direction and story writing and dialogue put to perfection.
Tears of joy. I feel like I can speak for a huge chunk of the fanbase when I say that this all we ever wanted to see on screen. This is Star Wars and it finally got the respect it deserves.
@@toddsalisbury3851 And yet - as a 7-year-old, me and my school friends would have LOVED this show. (because we had Blakes 7 - a very similar concept, with high drama and theatre most of the time, and a shootout in a disused nuclear power station at the end ....) "Bagsy be Cassian!" "No Way! You were Cassian yesterday .." "I bagsied him! - you get to be Bix!" "Bix is a girl .. Laura can be Bix!" "No way! - I want to be Deedra!" These are the sort of "debates" we were having in the playground after the original trilogy came out, and when Blake's 7 was on ... a primetime BBC show about a rebel leader sentenced to life on a prison planet by the evil Galactic Federation (on trumped-up charges of sexual child abuse) and their dominatrix female leader, Servalan Subterfuge, terrific acting by superb theatre actors - and amazing well-defined characters, exactly what children love .. even if they're not sure of the context Children would surely love Andor
This gave me chills. I can tell they took their time with this one. That's all we ever asked for, take your time, develop the story, then wow us with the universe we love so much.
@@Valen-xu2wy It's just the truth. OP is speaking absolute facts - he's spot-on with his analysis, hitting the nail right on the head, and I wholeheartedly agree with him.
many do not share your "optimistic appraisal of the situation" thou. The show has the lowest viewership. Similar per show viewership to Acolyte. Yeah, that Acolyte. The best is never the best selling.
Re-watching this is all the better for knowing that this show not only lived up to the unexpected hype this trailer created, but greatly exceeded it. Storytelling at it's finest.
I seldom comment on YT vids… Just finished watching episode 6 and this series just keeps on delivering. No predictable moments, unbelievable atmosphere and tension and an overall adult tone. Definitely the best Star Wars show for me by far!
@@bbygrlpt2this is basically set on before the original star wars trilogy. Before the rebellion was only being funded. So it can be ok for new star wars fan before they dive in the whole rabbit hole 😅
@@kr1me2000 Andy Serkis and Stellan Skarsgard acting are top tier level and were highly praised by fans and non-fans alike, and everyone else gave a fine performance. Now please go back to watching the Kardashians.
The entire show was perfect... The acting,soundtrack,cinematography,writing, everything was on point... Really loved the show... And the finale was 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@freemakerthings4518 Understandable. Some people believe the politics were the worst part of the prequels, and they are present within this too. I, for one, loved the Mon Mothma bits though.
Andor is one of the greatest shows ever made. Not just one of the best pieces of Star Wars media - some of the best TV in general. Great characters, amazing script, a grounded story with intrigue and tension. And the tension, my god. It's all masterfully done. If I were given the chance to change anything about it, I wouldn't.
The fact that it's also made by the same people who made Rogue One, which i arguably think is the best DISNEY MADE Star Wars movie is a huge plus. You can tell they actually care about Star Wars as such as the fans and know how to tell a great story. They really know what they're doing and I can't wait for this to come out!
When a Andor series was announced i thought "We dont need a series for such an minor character" but now i feel excitement! This could be one of the best pieces of Star Wars Media!
Yep! I couldn't really care about this character but I liked Rogue One and now I'm hyped to see what they are going for. At least this show gets a couple more episodes, not just 6. Enough episodes to flesh everything out properly without the need to rush. Might actually be good
@@syeo501 Especially this trailer shows a little more War in Star Wars then other projects. Seems to be a little darker than the usual stuff. At least I hope so.
So hyped for this! I feel like that’s what Star Wars needs though, a show about minor/unknown characters so the writers can do more with them. That’s why I think boba fett and kenobi failed. Because there’s so much love and history for those characters and therefore people have built up how they should be in their own heads.
Yes.. it's about time they stopped giving us "skywalker skywalker skywalker", reimagining beginnings of established characters and start telling us the stories of OTHERS who contributed to the vast expanse that is the Star Wars Galaxy. I think this will be good! We will also get Mon Montha's backstory as well.. :) This seems like it's gonna be good!
The difference in the quality of cinematography, lighting, editing and set design between this and all of the other Star Wars shows thus far is just absolutely ridiculous. Finally they have a team that appears to actually know how to change the settings on a camera and use Final Cut.
This is possibly the best blend of the prequals and original trilogy I've seen. It captures both of them so seamlessly. I assume they were going for this, and honored them both so well. I hope they are proud of their good work.
lol not really. It doesn't feel like either the prequals or the original trilogy. It feels like its own thing, which is why it is so good. Star wars needs to keep doing new things like this if it wants to continue to have supportive fans.
Just watched this series for a second time. It's easily the best Star Wars Disney has produced to date. I hope it eventually gets the universal appreciation it deserves.
I can't believe how good this trailer is. Seriously whoever made it deserves a raise. The music, the shots, the build up. Straight up gives me chills. Super excited for this show I think it's a much needed take on the series with no mandos and no jedi/sith
I work for the company who made this trailer. Thank you so much, buddy! I’m making a collage of comments like this to give to the team. You’re too kind!
Yes. No Mandalorians and no Force-related stuff is much needed for Star Wars. Literally everything id about the Force and Mandalorians these days that we don't get enough pure Rebels vs. Empire stuff.
Agreed, kenobi and book of bubba were extremely basic and more for kids. Nothing wrong with that but I want Star Wars to lean in to its gritty, rogue one stylized writing. It’d be a massive success
Kathleen Kennedy runs LucasFilm. Thus it will be trash. This is not difficult folks. Even if you banish her from the set she finds a way to FUBAR things. You should know this by now.
As someone whose favorite movie is Rogue One, this has made me so excited that I can't put it into words. I can't believe how good everything looks, and I'm so happy they brought characters I wished I could've seen more stories like Saw Guerrera and Cassian.
Prequel series to Star Wars' 'Rogue One'. In an era filled with danger, deception and intrigue, Cassian will embark on the path that is destined to turn him into a Rebel hero.
i just... wish I've never seen this so I can watch it again and relive this masterpiece. NOTHING comes MILES close to this in StarWars universe and FEW other series are equal or around it...
Now this looks like a truly cinematic Star Wars series. The Mandalorian has its moments, but the 'volume' can make the settings look so small and constrained when overused (Such as in the Obi-Wan and Boba Fett series)
This is incorrect. BOBF and Kenobi actually used the volume less than the Mandalorian. Tatooine has direct sunlight. The volume can't do direct sunny sunlight due to the interior nature of production. The Tatooine scenes are filmed outside in lots and stadiums with giant blue screens. The Mandalorian Season 1 and 2 used the volume more than any project thus far. It's all about the director and cinematographer.
Finally a trailer that got me excited for a Star Wars show! Everything is there, the visuals, the actors, the music, the rhythm! You immediately feel this is cinematic, well because it is! It's directed by top notch filmmakers!
Sorry but if the Obi Wan series trailer didn't get you hyped then you just straight up didn't watch it. Regardless of how you feel about the show itself, the trailer was literally perfect
@@einzelganger6664 I’m glad someone was hyped during Obi Wans trailer. It honestly just made me worried it would be another Boba Fett. The show itself was at least a tiny bit better than that though.
This feels and looks like it's going to be one of the best star wars series to date, the quality looks like feature film quality level (even more so than all the other Disney+ star wars shows)
@@hallohieristniemand2113 huh?? Clone wars isn’t a kids show and andor isn’t beating clone wars. Clone wars is the best star wars media out there. The majority of people agree that clone wars is number1
Absolutely stunning!! THIS is what I’ve dreamed of Star Wars on the small screen looking like. The scope and production value is incredible. The era, the characters, the look, the vibe. It all looks absolutely fantastic.
The use of real locations makes this look leagues ahead of the other TV shows. The fact it’s a a British production makes it feel more star wars to me. Andor is such a good character and I can’t wait to see more of his shady past in this story. Amazing!!
This looks genuinely better than any of the other star wars shows - it's cinematic! I'm super excited for this one. I hope the show stays true to the serious and darker tone that the trailers presents.
Maybe its the three episode format. It does look more cinematic as you say. As much as I loved the Mandalorian and Kenobi, some of the scenes were a little bit pantomime.
It looks more cinematic because the dude who is directing it actually knows how to direct. The Mandalorian has been the best Disney+ released content overall imo, not just Star Wars. I think this has the potential to be as good as that but it will be tough to beat. I enjoyed Kenobi and thought it was good but there were things I didn’t like and thought could be better. Deborah Chow wasn’t the best option in my opinion.
This really does look like it'll be stellar. The mood just seems so "right" - tense, fermenting rebellion with the big figureheads in Mon Mothma and Saw Gerrera driving something underground and DANGEROUS. Really can't wait for this one.
One of the best shows I've ever seen. Everything is amazing about it. The writing, acting, directing, the cinematography, it's just too good for Star Wars.
Extremely well written with fantastic acting performances from all. Didn't feel like Star Wars but paradoxically at the same time it did. This Tony Gilroy is an exceptional artist and needs to do more Star Wars.
So good to see prequel locations like the senate assembly. This really looks like they took their time and developed a passionate story. This already looks better from a cinematic and writing perspective than any Star Wars project recently
I know that opinions about this vary but for me this is something right up my alley. I adored Rogue One purely for the reason that it was completely separate, not "burdened" by the weight of the whole franchise and allowed me for a peek into this world without knowing much about it. And if this is an extension of that experience... sign me in. Can't wait for September!
totally agree, Rogue One was the most grown up of the Star Wars movies. it feels like a film made for adults, even if the overall franchise is for kids. Donny Yen's character... I so hope he gets a scene in this (and then later his own show with his best buddy)
After 4 Episodes I’m sure - this is the best Star Wars Series so far! Even much better than the Mandalorian. No fan service, no lazy story telling, great camera work and finally for an adult audience! I love everything of it! The only weakness is the length of the episodes. 🙏
A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. I was fascinated with Andor’s character of being a morally ambiguous spy who has fought for the rebellion but by questionable methods.
Funny, that the best Star Wars thing we've gotten since ESB (or maybe ever) was also the one thing no one ever asked for. And now all I need is just more of this, please.
Just watched it a second time. My god. This is more than star wars. This is something so deep. It makes the univers so real. It feels so good and comforting at the same time, a real escape with hope and truth. It had a great impact on me. Actors are so good. Writing is so good. Visuals are so good. Scenes are so good. Every stories. And OMG the MUSIC!!!!!! Only bangers. I'll watch that first season at least once a year
I thought an Andor show would be dull, but this trailer changed my mind immediately. It looks very interesting and I was pleasantly surprised at the many fine actors I spotted in the trailer. Bring it on!
@@themingler441 I do like Rogue One a lot. But a prequel about Andor without any of those characters is what I imagined, and it didnt appeal. I imagined something different from what the trailer has revealed.
Love how morally gray this show is. Successfully made me sympathize with more or less every major and mid-tier character regardless of which side they were on. Furthermore, at least 75% of the minor characters were nuanced and memorable. This is the hallmark of good writing.
I don’t think there was anything gray about this series. While it humanizes characters to understand why or how they became bad and evil, it in no way makes them “morally ambiguous”
!!!(Spoler Warning for anyone who hasn't finished watching yet)!!! ============== ============== ============== ============== Respectfully disagree. Heck, even the Imperial officers in Aldhani don't strike me as bad. They likely had the power to engage in excessive cruelty, but instead chose to dissuade the natives from making trouble via subtle manipulation. I felt way more sympathy for Jayhold and Pettigar than for the sergeant that decided to betray his compatriots after falling in love with a local or the rebels that seemed to have little regard for the harm their actions would cause to average Imperial citizens. However, I simultaneously have to concede the fact that the utter dearth of nuance in TFA, TLJ and TRS may have made this show look much better in comparison. Furthermore, many of the presented situations make it hard to decide who to sympathize with, the Imperials or the Rebels. Luthen doesn't come off as significantly more moral than some high level ISB official or even Palpatine. He views his cause as worthy and routinely treats people as disposable assets. He is also perfectly willing to sacrifice innocents and allies for "the greater good" and intentionally manipulates the authorities into inflicting massive amounts of suffering on the populace in order to achieve said ideal. Furthermore, one can definitely see how people working for and/or living under the Empire could be very justified in viewing the rebellion as a collection of violent criminals, mercenaries and dangerous insurgents. Syril is perfectly justified in his desire to bring the main character to justice. Furthermore, expecting the average person to choose the Rebellion over a quiet and pedestrian existence is highly unreasonable Overall, it's more a matter of whether one values order over freedom or vice versa. In my view, all of this makes for a nuanced story that doesn't merely devolve into a banal conflict between good and evil people.
This looks great. I think it's a good example of a show where people kind of went in with zero expectations, so everything they've shown so far has blown us away
This actually looks like it will be quality, the shots and cinematography looks nuts. It doesn't feel like traditional SW and that's GREAT! Taking its self serious is what it will set it apart. Rogue One was fantastic, hope the creators cook the same quality here.
No sorry but you can see the woke agenda in the first 5 seconds.. Good white women. Good black man. Good Pakistani girl. Bad white man. Cancelled Disney subscription after how bad they flopped Obi Wan with their woke agenda.
One of the things that made this show so immersive to me is the fact that most of the sets are shot in an actual place and not a greenscreen or volume. I've been to so many of the places that have been filmed including the Aldhani location
This is what is possible with Star Wars!!! Wow just look at the artistry, the cinematography, the suspense of the story!! This is the high level production I expected from every Star Wars series but never got. This looks so promising!
This was one of those trailers where I just watched with intent satisfaction and intrigue. No over-the-top reactions, no surprises, no anger, no disappointment - just pure, unaffected, inconspicuous satisfaction; I know that's a sign of a strong and high quality project. This show clearly came from the heart from the talent behind it - an artistically driven passion project at Lucasfilm. I know this is gonna be good, because no cheap tactics are being utilised to advertise it - because the people behind it are confident that it's a strong body of art; just, simply put, confident in their brilliant filmmaking and what seems to be an engaging, exciting and potent political drama. I haven't felt this excited for a Star Wars story since the reveal of The Clone Wars Season 7 in 2018 - I couldn't be more pumped for a show which respects George Lucas and both the history and literacy of cinema that came before him - of which he was utmost inspired by too. Please stay optimistic everyone, this is going to be better than any of you are going to expect, trust me. Edit: Well, didn't I tell you? ;)
No disrespect and I really admire your passion - no joke. I just find it hard to believe this will be anything better than what Disney+ has given us so far. Just expecting a 6/10 show with an episode filled with cameo's to carry it
To me this show seems like reading a novel: layered, tangible, with depth and emotional stakes and tension and always left guessing. The characters are rich and neither good or evil. Some may be on the part of the empire, but even those have nuanced motives. I love this show.
When they announced this show, I genuinely didn't care, but between this and the last trailer... it looks really great. Also, love that they've locked it down to two seasons of 12 episodes each. Means that we don't need to rush, but also have a solid ending to work towards.
Congratulations to everyone behind the show for the latest masterpiece since ROTS! I was in tears at almost every episode, the dialogues are genius, the scenery, the acting, all beyond words!
It looks like they pulled back a bit from the full-on virtual production approach of the last three shows to give us some more dynamic environments and traditional filmmaking. I'm actually excited for this.
It's still done with the same "virtual production" technology. They didn't pull back anything. The facts that it looks otherwise to you speaks volumes abou the advantages of that technology.
@@joeywheelercabrosky528 nope, the director herself confirmed that they didn't use the virtual approach of the previous shows, because they shot so much in real locations
I’ve wanted Star Wars content like this for years. As much as I love the prequels I was disappointed that we were shortchanged on the origins of the Rebellion. This looks great.
I mean, I've learnt not to get too hyped because of the amazing trailers that are being made lately (not only star wars) and then the film/show tends to disappoint (or not live up to the expectations) but I'm actually very optimistic for this show. The plot, the cast, the acting, the production design, the visuals in general... And to top it all, I just read that Nicholas Britell will be creating the soundtrack for the series so I couldn't be more hyped! Really looking forward to watching this show
LOTR fans are true protectors of the lore...... starwars fans just rolled over and they made this a political show about trump hahahahaha however i liken the empire to the democrats and we the normal people are the rebellion
These are my favorite kind of Star Wars. The dark, gritty tails of the Clone Wars Cartoon series, Mandolorian, Rogue One, and what Endor appears to be. And then there is the more colorful family action adventure of A New Hope, the Original Trilogy, and Star Wars Rebels. These are Star Wars done well with likable, exciting characters, action-adventure, villains and heroes, intrigue, mystery, tragedy, and hope.
Such a fantastic show, nothing in star wars since the Mandalorian S1 grabbed my attention so thoroughly. It was gritty, gripping, consequential and nerve wracking. We know Andor lives but they did such a great job making interesting side characters and seeing what the empire was doing to them really sold me on the necessity of a rebellion. Can't wait for season 2
@@StarWars you are the same person who go on twitter and argue with anyone you can about star wars being woke or not? bro shame on you . you represent a company you are here to advertise upcoming thing not argue with anybody you can
This series is my absolutely favorite thing Star Wars since Empire. It seems so self evident to me it drives me nuts when someone else doesn't realize it.
This really looks insanely good. We finally have more than just 6 or 8 episodes which gives the characters more time to grow. I wouldn't complain about the 3 week delay, this just gives everyone at Lucasfilm more time to really finish this project so that it hopefully won't end up like Kenobi's weird cinematography.
@@Dani-kq6qq Well, the Kenobi episodes weren't as long as everyone expected. Even if the Andor episodes are only 30mins it'll still be more than Kenobi and Book of Boba.
Seeing the senate again in live action since the prequels gives me all kinds of chills, i hope Emperor Palpatine makes a speech there he's good at those
I remember at Celebration last year how so many people were so negative about this show. They said things like no one cares about Cassian. No one asked for this story. It’s going to be boring, but I knew. I knew this show was going to change everything - the expectations for writing within the Star Wars franchise. All I can say is that every episode left me wanting more, made me feel as if I were there, and taught me something new both fictionally and as a story teller.
You know that feeling when a movie/show/game turns out to be so good that you come back to the trailer :)

@@papacole5025 Because of the writers and directors
We're excited for you to see it!
Andor is what I THOUGHT all Star Wars would be with Disney budgeting. The best writing. The best sets. The best actors. The best emotion and execution. Watching Andor makes almost all other Star Wars content look like a joke now. Even the Filoni/Favreau stuff everyone creams themselves over feels like kids playing with action figures compared to this. What a masterpiece... can't wait for Season 2!
I could not agree more with you. Andor (alongside with Rogue One) is the only Disney era SW competent enough with deeper meaning behind the beloved universe. A great proof that you do. not need a lightsaber to make a good SW movie.
I also agree. I tried watching Mandalorian again after Andor and I just couldn't do it. It was like trying to eat a bowl of skittles as a meal just after experiencing an evening of fine dining in Paris: fun in small doses but lacking in substance and heart
Call it... war. This is the writing we deserve. I really want to especially acknowledge Rogue One was the best Star Wars flick, dare I say ever. I think it captured what the original trilogy wanted and couldn't do.
Really
Filoni stuff is just as trash as the sequels, he's an animator not a writer. The things he writes have the same qualitty of bad fanfiction.
This was not a series, this is pure art in every frame.
I've seen the season 1 2 Times and I'm still hyped like it was yesterday. Brilliant.

Lol nope xD
It's painfully obvious that there is a difference in this show when compared to Book of Boba or Kenobi because it looks like it's a movie with the massive scale of the shots and good special effects. It feels like the budget was ramped up 10x and I'm not sure how it can be so different than the other shows but I'll be excited to watch. Whoever was in charge of the budget and planning for this needs to be at the front of every other Star Wars production

Each and every single episode of Andor is a master craft of direction and story writing and dialogue put to perfection.

@@toddsalisbury3851 yup
@@toddsalisbury3851 And yet - as a 7-year-old, me and my school friends would have LOVED this show. (because we had Blakes 7 - a very similar concept, with high drama and theatre most of the time, and a shootout in a disused nuclear power station at the end ....)
"Bagsy be Cassian!"
"No Way! You were Cassian yesterday .."
"I bagsied him! - you get to be Bix!"
"Bix is a girl .. Laura can be Bix!"
"No way! - I want to be Deedra!"
These are the sort of "debates" we were having in the playground after the original trilogy came out, and when Blake's 7 was on ... a primetime BBC show about a rebel leader sentenced to life on a prison planet by the evil Galactic Federation (on trumped-up charges of sexual child abuse) and their dominatrix female leader, Servalan

Andor is one of the greatest shows ever made. Not just one of the best pieces of Star Wars media - some of the best TV in general.

Pretty sure we said that about boba fett and kenobi and look how that turned out
@@syeo501 Especially this trailer shows a little more War in Star Wars then other projects. Seems to be a little darker than the usual stuff. At least I hope so.
So hyped for this! I feel like that’s what Star Wars needs though, a show about minor/unknown characters so the writers can do more with them. That’s why I think boba fett and kenobi failed. Because there’s so much love and history for those characters and therefore people have built up how they should be in their own heads.
Yes.. it's about time they stopped giving us "skywalker skywalker skywalker", reimagining beginnings of established characters and start telling us the stories of OTHERS who contributed to the vast expanse that is the Star Wars Galaxy. I think this will be good! We will also get Mon Montha's backstory as well.. :) This seems like it's gonna be good!
This series is just exceptional, I feel sorry for anyone who hasn't watched it. Probably the best live-action Star Wars series ever.

Unlike Kenobi.
It's filmed in real locations as opposed to the volume. This makes anything instantly more gritty.
The difference in the quality of cinematography, lighting, editing and set design between this and all of the other Star Wars shows thus far is just absolutely ridiculous. Finally they have a team that appears to actually know how to change the settings on a camera and use Final Cut.
Now compare this trailer to episode # of Obi Wan Kenobi…
Are there settings on cameras that you can alter? I expect all those professional camera people would be thrilled to know
Exactly. Doesn’t feel and sound like a CW show.
Ah yes, I'm sure Disney is using Final Cut to edit 🤣

Well, let's not talk about the Kenobi and Boba Fett trailers.

I am one with The Force and The Force is with me.
As someone who really didn't like Rogue One, I'm surprised how interested in the show this trailer has made me.
Prequel series to Star Wars' 'Rogue One'. In an era filled with danger, deception and intrigue, Cassian will embark on the path that is destined to turn him into a Rebel hero.
Rogue one was better than all of the new trilogy. That quality should have been what they went for.
Rogue One is the only good postDisney SW movie.
i just... wish I've never seen this so I can watch it again and relive this masterpiece. NOTHING comes MILES close to this in StarWars universe and FEW other series are equal or around it...
true, its my favourite tv show, its masterclass.
best Star Wars since Empire Strikes Back
Now this looks like a truly cinematic Star Wars series.
The Mandalorian has its moments, but the 'volume' can make the settings look so small and constrained when overused (Such as in the Obi-Wan and Boba Fett series)
For me mandalorian and BoBF are uncanon.
@@szymeq.haizaki4898 booo
Yeah the volume felt like a hindrance for a while, but I'm glad now they can make movie like scope.
@@szymeq.haizaki4898 Grow up
This is incorrect. BOBF and Kenobi actually used the volume less than the Mandalorian. Tatooine has direct sunlight. The volume can't do direct sunny sunlight due to the interior nature of production. The Tatooine scenes are filmed outside in lots and stadiums with giant blue screens. The Mandalorian Season 1 and 2 used the volume more than any project thus far. It's all about the director and cinematographer.
Finally a trailer that got me excited for a Star Wars show! Everything is there, the visuals, the actors, the music, the rhythm! You immediately feel this is cinematic, well because it is! It's directed by top notch filmmakers!

This looks genuinely better than any of the other star wars shows - it's cinematic! I'm super excited for this one. I hope the show stays true to the serious and darker tone that the trailers presents.
Maybe its the three episode format. It does look more cinematic as you say. As much as I loved the Mandalorian and Kenobi, some of the scenes were a little bit pantomime.
It's a trap. Don't fall for it. 🤣
Oh me too. Holding my breath that we get some Star Wars IP that isn't primarily marketed to children.
I thought the same about kenobi.
It looks more cinematic because the dude who is directing it actually knows how to direct. The Mandalorian has been the best Disney+ released content overall imo, not just Star Wars. I think this has the potential to be as good as that but it will be tough to beat.
I enjoyed Kenobi and thought it was good but there were things I didn’t like and thought could be better. Deborah Chow wasn’t the best option in my opinion.
This really does look like it'll be stellar. The mood just seems so "right" - tense, fermenting rebellion with the big figureheads in Mon Mothma and Saw Gerrera driving something underground and DANGEROUS.

Please make more content like this, this is not boring, this is amazing.
Love how morally gray this show is. Successfully made me sympathize with more or less every major and mid-tier character regardless of which side they were on. Furthermore, at least 75% of the minor characters were nuanced and memorable. This is the hallmark of good writing.
The lowkey budding romance/partnership of Syril and Dedra is something I look forward to, if the writers are brave enough to explore it.
I concur, hope we see more of that plotline in Season II.
I don’t think there was anything gray about this series. While it humanizes characters to understand why or how they became bad and evil, it in no way makes them “morally ambiguous”
!!!(Spoler Warning for anyone who hasn't finished watching yet)!!! ============== ============== ============== ============== Respectfully disagree. Heck, even the Imperial officers in Aldhani don't strike me as bad. They likely had the power to engage in excessive cruelty, but instead chose to dissuade the natives from making trouble via subtle manipulation. I felt way more sympathy for Jayhold and Pettigar than for the sergeant that decided to betray his compatriots after falling in love with a local or the rebels that seemed to have little regard for the harm their actions would cause to average Imperial citizens. However, I simultaneously have to concede the fact that the utter dearth of nuance in TFA, TLJ and TRS may have made this show look much better in comparison. Furthermore, many of the presented situations make it hard to decide who to sympathize with, the Imperials or the Rebels. Luthen doesn't come off as significantly more moral than some high level ISB official or even Palpatine. He views his cause as worthy and routinely treats people as disposable assets. He is also perfectly willing to sacrifice innocents and allies for "the greater good" and intentionally manipulates the authorities into inflicting massive amounts of suffering on the populace in order to achieve said ideal. Furthermore, one can definitely see how people working for and/or living under the Empire could be very justified in viewing the rebellion as a collection of violent criminals, mercenaries and dangerous insurgents. Syril is perfectly justified in his desire to bring the main character to justice. Furthermore, expecting the average person to choose the Rebellion over a quiet and pedestrian existence is highly unreasonable Overall, it's more a matter of whether one values order over freedom or vice versa. In my view, all of this makes for a nuanced story that doesn't merely devolve into a banal conflict between good and evil people.

No over-the-top reactions, no surprises, no anger, no disappointment - just pure, unaffected, inconspicuous satisfaction; I know that's a sign of a strong and high quality project. This show clearly came from the heart from the talent behind it - an artistically driven passion project at Lucasfilm. I know this is gonna be good, because no cheap tactics are being utilised to advertise it - because the people behind it are confident that it's a strong body of art; just, simply put, confident in their brilliant filmmaking and what seems to be an engaging, exciting and potent political drama. I haven't felt this excited for a Star Wars story since the reveal of The Clone Wars Season 7 in 2018 - I couldn't be more pumped for a show which respects George Lucas and both the history and literacy of cinema that came before him - of which he was utmost inspired by too. Please stay optimistic everyone, this is going to be better than any of you are going to expect, trust me.
Edit: Well, didn't I tell you? ;)
Well said 🙂
more sjw/pc agenda garbage as the past few dacades...avoid like the plague.
Then you're a fool.
No disrespect and I really admire your passion - no joke.
I just find it hard to believe this will be anything better than what Disney+ has given us so far.
Just expecting a 6/10 show with an episode filled with cameo's to carry it
I dont think so, thats why I gonna want to feel less hope.
The show seems so perfect just everything I could want... Disney has let me down so much recently but I'm very grateful for this show... just so good
This trailer still gives me goosebumps. The background songs, just wow!
IKR! what an unbelievable trailer for an even more unbelievable series!
Genuinely one of the best dramas in TV history. The writing is absolutely sublime.
Better than Mandalorian
Yes
Whoah really? Now I'm definitely checking it out.
Easily, not even close to being close
Mo
Nope
To me this show seems like reading a novel: layered, tangible, with depth and emotional stakes and tension and always left guessing. The characters are rich and neither good or evil. Some may be on the part of the empire, but even those have nuanced motives. I love this show.
"I'd like to hang him" is pretty evil
Words cannot express how much I love this show. This is easily the best thing out of Disney Star Wars, can't wait for the finale
I didn’t have high hopes for this show at first, but this looks insane. I can’t wait
Andor leaked footage ua-cam.com/video/flPyIk-Dmls/v-deo.html !!!
Ya!!
When they announced this show, I genuinely didn't care, but between this and the last trailer... it looks really great. Also, love that they've locked it down to two seasons of 12 episodes each. Means that we don't need to rush, but also have a solid ending to work towards.
Same!!
Same as well. but WHERE ARE THE ALIENS I THOUGHT THIS WAS STAR WARS NOT HUMAN & DROID WARS!
Congratulations to everyone behind the show for the latest masterpiece since ROTS! I was in tears at almost every episode, the dialogues are genius, the scenery, the acting, all beyond words!
It looks like they pulled back a bit from the full-on virtual production approach of the last three shows to give us some more dynamic environments and traditional filmmaking. I'm actually excited for this.
It's still done with the same "virtual production" technology. They didn't pull back anything. The facts that it looks otherwise to you speaks volumes abou the advantages of that technology.
@@joeywheelercabrosky528 no it doesnt. andor didn't use the volume. they actually build sets and shot on location.
@@joeywheelercabrosky528 nope, the director herself confirmed that they didn't use the virtual approach of the previous shows, because they shot so much in real locations
@@joeywheelercabrosky528 they actually didn't
still coming back to this trailer, my fav star wars show, no comparison.
I’ve wanted Star Wars content like this for years. As much as I love the prequels I was disappointed that we were shortchanged on the origins of the Rebellion. This looks great.
Andor is a pure masterpiece of a serie.
I wonder if Cassian's shoulders hurt from carrying this franchise
Best Andor comment EVER!!!
This series is the best!!
It deserve every praise it got
I mean, I've learnt not to get too hyped because of the amazing trailers that are being made lately (not only star wars) and then the film/show tends to disappoint (or not live up to the expectations) but I'm actually very optimistic for this show. The plot, the cast, the acting, the production design, the visuals in general... And to top it all, I just read that Nicholas Britell will be creating the soundtrack for the series so I couldn't be more hyped! Really looking forward to watching this show
I’m cautiously optimistic after the last two blunders from Star Wars. I will admit that this does look better from a visual standpoint though.
@@dawsynasay4841 agreed
@@dawsynasay4841 which blunders do you mean?
@@user-uf8lp6ug8z Kenobi and BOBF I assume, Mando 2 was that good either imo
Sounds like you haven’t learned anything
This trailer looks so good
Good
LOTR fans are true protectors of the lore...... starwars fans just rolled over and they made this a political show about trump hahahahaha however i liken the empire to the democrats and we the normal people are the rebellion
cool
cool
Nice
These are my favorite kind of Star Wars. The dark, gritty tails of the Clone Wars Cartoon series, Mandolorian, Rogue One, and what Endor appears to be. And then there is the more colorful family action adventure of A New Hope, the Original Trilogy, and Star Wars Rebels. These are Star Wars done well with likable, exciting characters, action-adventure, villains and heroes, intrigue, mystery, tragedy, and hope.

Such a fantastic show, nothing in star wars since the Mandalorian S1 grabbed my attention so thoroughly. It was gritty, gripping, consequential and nerve wracking. We know Andor lives but they did such a great job making interesting side characters and seeing what the empire was doing to them really sold me on the necessity of a rebellion.
Can't wait for season 2
This looks like it'll really be insane. Really digging the tone and the cinematography.
Let the rebellion begin.
@@StarWars Let the empire win already 😡
@@StarWars Yes
Let's hope the plot is better than Kenobi. we know the visuals will be great, but that's only half the rent.
@@StarWars you are the same person who go on twitter and argue with anyone you can about star wars being woke or not? bro shame on you . you represent a company you are here to advertise upcoming thing not argue with anybody you can
Didn't expect this to blow me away when announced, but I'm really pleasantly surpised at how interesting and visually impressive this looks.
Same super hyped!
Bro star wars hearted your comment
I love that this show knows what it is, has a mission, and seems to be focused around a story. Bring it on!
True, but is it a story that needs to be told? Seems Disney's just creating unnecessary stories to throw in a bunch of nostalgia for Star Wars fans.
@@truthdetector4036 More star wars, I'm not complaining
Even a broken clock like Disney is right twice a day. Could be something not trash.
@@truthdetector4036 not really unnecessary at all it seems extremely interesting
vs These are characters we know you love, what do we do now?
This series is my absolutely favorite thing Star Wars since Empire. It seems so self evident to me it drives me nuts when someone else doesn't realize it.
THE HYPE I HAVE FOR THIS SHOW IS THROUGH THE ROOF. It just looks so stunning in visuals and quality!
This really looks insanely good. We finally have more than just 6 or 8 episodes which gives the characters more time to grow. I wouldn't complain about the 3 week delay, this just gives everyone at Lucasfilm more time to really finish this project so that it hopefully won't end up like Kenobi's weird cinematography.
What if the episodes are shorter?
@@Dani-kq6qq Well, the Kenobi episodes weren't as long as everyone expected. Even if the Andor episodes are only 30mins it'll still be more than Kenobi and Book of Boba.
Isn't he said 12 episode in 2022 Star Wars Celebration?
How many episodes?.
@@ItsStarkiller 12
Seeing the senate again in live action since the prequels gives me all kinds of chills, i hope Emperor Palpatine makes a speech there he's good at those
I remember at Celebration last year how so many people were so negative about this show. They said things like no one cares about Cassian. No one asked for this story. It’s going to be boring, but I knew. I knew this show was going to change everything - the expectations for writing within the Star Wars franchise. All I can say is that every episode left me wanting more, made me feel as if I were there, and taught me something new both fictionally and as a story teller.
