Undeads in Star Wars?! People should die for this blasphemy!

Seems pretty consistent with Dathomir force powers. May seem weirdly out-of-place for viewers unfamiliar with the Dathomir witches.

Not the first time. Jedi Fallen Order has undead night sisters / night brothers
I don't understand why they'd do young Ahsoka and not have Ashley Eckstein as the voice. Even this version doesn't match the plucky Clone Wars version. Whole thing still feels like a fan film still to me. Love Filoni but this series been so underwhelming for me.
Massive Star Wars fan but honestly end up looking forward to the credits so I can put something else on.

@aeronmelon what on earth are you talking about Ashley has voiced Ahsoka in the Tales of Jedi episode which AFTER siege of Mandalore. If you're going to comment at least know what yore talking about. Do you think they use on set dialogue recording? If they are going to do ADR then Ashley is easy.
It's not weird that Clancy Brown come back as Azadi, Tennant back as Huyang, Steve Blum as Zeb, Lars back as Thrawn. I mean Katee Sackhoff is in Mandalorian and she clearly on some good face moisturiser as Bo-Katan ain't day since Clone Wars.
But not having Ashley in ADR in flashback is too much effort.
Pull the other one.
manly men's show. period.

"period"-less :)
Is all I can say!
why the cgi is so fucking lame???? Great episode but I couldn't help wonder about the bad cgi
loading replies
@feepiva Probably just too much CGI each episode and too few artists. They just don't have the time/budget to make it look perfect. It looks fine to me though. Not movie quality I guess, but TV shows rarely get that treatment anyway. It does what it's supposed to and looks better than average tbh.
Can someone please explain to me why this show constantly looks like butthole every episode? Don’t say it’s because of the time period, Fuck that! please do something about the darkness.

@abstractlegend Like most modern shows, it is shot with HDR TVs in mind. The murky, low-contrast, dark scenes are a result of a poor tonemapping job for the SDR versions.
I usually do not watch TV episodes till after the credits roll but there is actually an after credits scene here that noone should miss!

@mellowb Thanks, I would've missed if I hadn't read this.

@mellowb Holy heck. I would've missed that if you hadn't mentioned it.
Except one great space battle nothing happening. Andor is a collection of boring and really great episodes. So far each story arch has started with a quite boring episode and endet with a fantastic episode. Would be nice if we got all episodes of an arch at the same time - make less episodes but each episode about 2 hours. Or make the opening episodes less boring ...

@markus-schabel For you a song would be nothing more than the chorus. No bridge, no buildup, just the most memorable part of the song, because that's what matters right? Because it's the only valuable thing in the song? Nevermind that the fact the chorus stands out the most is because the rest of the song is built in order to MAKE it stand out. The only reason it's rewarding to listen to it, it's beacause you don't get to listen to it the whole time.
There are no "boring" episodes in Andor. There is a web and flow of building and release, of anticipation and climax. The fact you are unable to see this just shows the ignorance of your opinion.

I love this pacing and the development of the characters and the universe. I have to completely disagree.
Review by Andrew Bloom
VIP9[7.0/10] There’s a lot of filler in this one. I don’t know why, in the lead-up to the finale, we need to have Kaz getting in a scuba suit fight with some stormtroopers, or to see a ball droid vs. ball droid street fight. I guess it’s supposed to be fun, but the show’s animation is so stiff and stuttery that it’s hard to get into it. At least we get a lot of fun Neeku banter. (His bits about blowfish and being called “buddy” were positively Pinky-esque.)
The one part of this episode I found really interesting is Tam being coaxed and turned by Agent Tierny. While she’s obviously playing Tam, she’s using true things, like that Yeager kept things from her and put her in danger, that give Tam a right to be mad. The actress who voices Tam still feels a bit wooden to me, but there’s at least good character writing for how she’d be sympathetic to the First Order and disillusioned about her mentor.
The rest of this is mostly place-setting. Buggles helping Kaz get to Torra, and Neeku and the refugees discovering that the Colossus can fly feels much more like setup than anything necessary for this episode. The same goes for Yeager and Captain Doza getting tossed in the same cell.
That just leaves the direct tie in to The Force Awakens with Kaz witnessing Hux’s speech on Starkiller base, just before it blows up the Hosnian system (something captured with an external camera for some reason?) It should be a devastating moment for Kaz, but we’ve only seen his dad once, and the actor who voices the character doesn't have the abilities as a performer to make a moment like that land.
Overall, this is a fairly underwhelming lead into the finale, with more filler and setups than anything worthwhile outside of Tam’s experience, but maybe it’ll be worth it with the payoff in the next episode.

@toddcraft No spoilers for the finale (either in this comment or my previous one), and I apologize if I implied otherwise. Regardless of what Tam chooses to do in the next episode, I just don't see this show going whole hog on a heel turn for any of these characters, but who knows? I've been waiting for something introduced in the T.V. series to affect the movies in even a semi-significant way, and that would definitely be a cool way to pull it off.
In my opinion, this is the best British sitcom ever made.

@toddcraft right up there with Faulty Towers I’d say.
The original comic book was some kind of absurd horror story with a touch of humor. In the pilot Seth Rogan successfully (sarcastically meant) converted it into its own parody.
I didn't like it. It was chaotic. The story was confusing. I could follow it because I know the original story, but my wife (who doesn't) didn't understand a single word of it. So anything that is good in the pilot is only good because the original story was good.loading replies
@toddcraft Yeah, you're right. I fixed it. :)
