Darkness is eternal and was always there first. Light is an anomaly.
Ooo, I am very excited to get an impression of this show! refreshing in anticipation intensifies
Is it another playdoh looking 3d animation? I can't stand the Clone Wars/Rebels art styles.
... blood-magic-saber ... nice.
But that implies the existence of other bodily fluids sabres.
Ah yes, anal discharge saber, wielded by Dy Aree-ah.
Dyrth Arre-ah
The upgraded version is called the 'santorum-saber'.
Cum sabre. An elegant weapon for an enlightened age.
Can you get someone pregnant with that? Should you wear a condom around it or just raw-dog it in battle?
Also, those aren't sparks that fly off of it.
...they called it 'semen' in the high republic...
You know what we’re all thinking…
Snot Saber
But spinal-tap-saber would be pretty metal.
How could it not be? It goes up to 11!
Sticky yet cutty.
Sounds like a perfect blade for Grogu
please be like Andor please be like Andor please be like Andor
Andor was great because disney didnt oversee the production. The Gilroy bros were allowed to just make. They filmed in real locations. Had actual characters with personalities. The bad guys seemed like a threat and not just bland targets.
When disney oversees production the entire set is CGI ("the volume"). All the characters are very bland and vanilla to appeal to the most amount of people. Antagonist are narrow and usually a joke in terms of a threat.
I haven't really looked into this series and how much disney is forcing the hand of the director.
That, and it was a good story set in the Star Wars universe rather than a Star Wars story where entire universe is the same 3 characters and their friends - every. goddamn. time.
Creating new characters is just sooo hard in an entire universe. /s
Except don’t get cut off from a full five season run because of a global pandemic.
No way Andor could maintain that level of quality for 5 seasons. I'm fine with two of (hopefully) the best seasons of television I've ever seen.
Wait, Andor was originally suppose to be five seasons??
D:
This is news to me, too.
Yep.
:(
Anime or real person?
I believe the 2nd
Please don't be bad. All I have ever wanted is Star wars to delve into all of their rich lore. That isn't surrounding that like 60 year Skywalker period. We are forced to consume. Please don't fuck this up disney.
We want more of grandpa wookie watching porn in the living room on lifeday, Disney. The people have spoken!
I wouldnt mind a cocaine fueled acid trip in a space scifi again.
Grandpa wookie is the most badass character in starwars. "the space nazis are trashing my apartment looking for my renegade son. I should put on some porn in the living room"
Starwars was at its absolute zenith with the holiday special.
You want another story set in Mos Eisley, got it
You joke, but "Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina" was legit great. Everything that I hoped would be on film when Disney bought Star Wars...
Edit: autocorrect
Tales from the Mos Eisley Cantina
I loved that book as a kid! Tales of the Bounty Hunters, too. I'm excited for the possibility that Acolyte could be something like those, and branch out into some new territory. I also know Disney is terrified of the possibility of alienating even the most casual watcher, so I'm also emotionally prepared for this to turn into GONK: The Beginning or some other OT prop origin story.
My trust in Filoni and Favreau is absolute. those motherfuckers can do no wrong!
This series is some SWEU adaptation, and deals with (among other things) the rise of Palpy and related characters. It’s supposed to take place outside the timeline of The Skywalker Saga (finally!)
Sort of agree. A whole universe to play in and we have to follow the same characters all the time.
