Absolute cum stain of a film, ruined an already brutally stupid premise set up by TFA. Eat my whole ass hexbear, I’m not going to hitch my ride to this shit because it tripped half way into making a good point with some vaguely sucdem rhetoric.

Just trash all around, its sequel was king trash only because this bullshit laid the groundwork for trash. A fucking structural engineer had to design a solid trash foundation for that steaming pile of shit ROS. Most boring movie I’ve seen in theaters. 3+ hours of diahrrea o stg if i see another post praising this movie I’m going to eat my shit. Shape the fuck up, this movie sucks.

Even hotter take: Andor was okay in theory but filled me with such intense Capitalist Realism that I struggled to enjoy it (probably a me thing, but still)

idk if I'm reading this correctly but the themes of the show work in tandem with the meta knowledge that they do manage to overthrow the empire in the end, like it's a foregone conclusion that the Capitalism Ain't Real

their struggles are overwhelming and seem pointless, and Andor and so many others don't live to see the fruit of their efforts, but it's a in-universe examination of why these people fought despite that, with us knowing that they were all important even if they didn't at the time

the intended angle isn't "imagine even trying, the empire will never fall and all of the idealists get owned", it's more like "yeah even the relatively small act of throwing a brick at a stormtrooper during an IRA funeral was vital to the destruction of the death star and by extension the empire"
