Disco Stu 15,495 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Sort of but in many ways it will be quite similar. Gilroy confirmed that it will retain the 3 episode arc structure and he said that each 3 episode arc will tell a story in one concentrated time period. So essentially the main difference is that there will be a big time jump between each arc. DarthDementous 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow, I do think Andor can be a little meandering, a little fragmented. And its wild to watch something which is a spinoff of a spinoff to a prequel. Its certainly the most science-fiction that Star Wars had ever been: almost as if someone put a little THX into it. But, having said all of that, I think its very well-made, very fresh, and - at its best - packs a decent wallop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find this argument very... odd. I'm rewatching Rebels, another series that split the fans for the polar opposite reasons Andor did it. and I think both show, as different as they are, fit very well close to each other, and share similar themes, in many ways Andor improves the show by offering a new perspective. So it's definetely for people who like Star Wars. It's also a standalone piece of the universe and great TV, so I might get that someone who hasn't watched SW can find enjoyment in it, and that's what the argument is referring to.

Bespin 8,480 Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Star Wars is indeed not about science-fiction, it's about the thinking "If you want, you can". But of course, it involves The Force, this invisible power that will make this dice turn to a 6 if you want too. In our world, it could be a mixture of luck and goodwill. Tell me, at least, at one point in the Andor series, an event, no matter which one, will be attributable to The Force, but in a way a bit more precise than just luck.

Just because something is fantasy doesn't make it beyond reproach: it just a statement about its genre. Star Wars is part of a well-established genre called space fantasy that goes back to Edgar Rice Burroughs. It inevitably has some trappings of science fiction - spaceships, interplanetary travel, aliens, etc.. - but also a lot of the trappings of a fantasy story: in particular, a lot of thinly-disguised Medivalisms: swords, capes, quasi-chivalric orders and quasi-feudal social structures, supernatural powers, heroic quests, etc... Andor may be soft science fiction, but its still science fiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no easy or objective way to determine whether a work is science fiction, science fantasy, hard sci-fi, soft sci-fi, space opera, etc. The borders and overlaps between genres are loose and subject to debate. Personally, I'd say that the original Star Wars is very much science fantasy. You could easily tell the same story in a traditional fantasy setting, and the opening "A long time ago …" tries to set up a fantasy mindset from the start. For me it also sits on the far outskirts—Outer Rim?—of soft sci-fi. Later films feel a little less science fantasy and a little more soft sci-fi. But it's still just a soft sci-fi veneer. There's nothing sci-fi about the stories. Andor is interesting. It doesn't really feel like science fantasy at all, but it's certainly not hard sci-fi for the reasons you describe. I'd describe it more as a political thriller in a soft sci-fi setting. Its themes don't feel at all sci-fi to me. If Star Wars could easily fit in a fantasy setting, Andor could easily fit in a contemporary one. Andy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Disco Stu 15,495 Posted November 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2022 I take a fairly hard-line view of what science fiction is. Sci-fi is fundamentally about the human relationship with technology and where it might take us in the future, and how it changes or doesn't change the fundamental nature of being a human. The technology needs to be more than just an aesthetic or back-drop. But these kind of definitions should never get in the way of just enjoying a story (or not enjoying it).

I'd agree it varies from entry to entry. Star Wars is perhaps the most fairytale-like (which is not to say I for one minute believe George Lucas' stories about how combed through folk-tales and mythologies and Joseph Campbell, etc...) but the prequel trilogy is also very space-fantasy: the Jedi didn't become a quasi-monastic chivalric order until those films. The sequel trilogy, outside of the Jedi/Sith dichtomoy, is perhaps less fantastical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Positivatee 327 Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Star Wars is a science fiction universe with a few fantasy elements mixed in. The stories that George told almost 50 years ago concentrate on a few main characters that are gifted enough to use those fantasy elements. Space wizards. Mind tricks. Hand waving to pull handles and choke people. Force chain lightning. This makes the stories appear to be all fantasy, with just a little science mixed in. But those characters are the exception, not the norm. The majority of characters in the Star Wars universe are normal people either trying to make a living or bring down a fascist regime in a technologically advanced but stagnant civilization. Not everyone in the Empire has Sith powers. Not everyone in the Alliance has Jedi powers. Most people haven't never heard of such abilities or dismiss it as extince, because if there are three things this Republic/Empire is good at, it's suppressing information, spreading disinformation, and making people forget just one generation removed. If you don't include any of these magic characters, you can tell a story that is just science fiction: the exploration of the human condition in a futuristic setting. The Andor show is really not that different from discussing the intrigue and subterfuge of 1930s Europe before the war broke out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about the interaction between the human condition and a (scientifically plausible) futuristic setting. Star Wars intentionally leaves the realm of scientifically plausibility, even when you ignore the Force. And the futuristic setting is just that: a setting. It's not really involved in the central themes and questions. None of that is a criticism of Star Wars; it just has different goals than science fiction generally does.

dylanskie 104 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Season 1 was slow and boring for me at times, but it mostly paid off, and I think it'll pay off more in the second season. I was impressed with how much thought seems to have gone into this show, and the rest of the Star Wars shows completely pale in comparison to this. There were much less cheesy tropes (which is all that Kenobi really was, and same with The Mandalorian and BOBF, but to a lesser extent ), and everything just felt more plausible. The best parts of the show were the ones that focused on the rebellion and Mon Mothma, who I hope we see much more of in season 2 because Genevieve O'Reilly plays her with such nuance and authenticity that she shone in pretty much every scene she was in. Also, all the worlds the show visited were different enough from other established planets that it felt fresh, but the inclusion of things like the Senate chamber and the various references (which were done with care, like the remark about Canto Bight) made it feel like Star Wars—but the good parts of it. And the score fit beautifully. A JW-esque score with a traditional orchestra would've sounded out of place. Also, I liked how the band in the season finale played one of the themes from the show. I will say that kids probably enjoy traditional SW movies and shows way better than Andor because they're easier to follow and less subtle. I hope Disney makes more SW shows in the realm of Andor where there doesn't have to be 24/7 action (TROS) and they can actually let the characters develop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Datameister 2,041 Posted November 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 30, 2022 I agree that her subplots really didn't cover that much ground over the course of the season … but I also found them really compelling to watch. Genevieve O'Reilly has truly hit her stride with this character. In ROTS's deleted scenes, she struck me as a rather stilted lookalike. In R1, she got to give a more mature and nuanced performance.

Do you just have no idea what kind of show this is? It’s an ensemble show, it’s important to regularly check in to see what each of our main players is up to and progress the plot at the same time. You can’t do that if you dedicate entire episodes to one character’s perspective, that’s not the point of the show.

Those are arguably the biggest departures from past Star Wars. But the two things in this show that are absolutely perfect are the prison arc and everything with Mon Mothma. To me one of the greatest moments of the entire series was when MM meets with the scummy banker and he says "I don't want money, I want your child" and you see her realize that she had no idea the game that she was playing, what would be asked of her, and what she would be willing to do.

greenturnedblue 372 Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 People complained about having an entire episode about the Mandalorian in the Book of Boba Fett.
