| 0:00.0 | This show is kind of generous in a way. It's giving it almost a gift to the Star Wars universe. |
| 0:06.8 | It's enriching all the movies that come after it. It's saying like, these are the stakes. This is why |
| 0:13.7 | actually matters so much. Right. This is why you should care. And like I do, like, I started watching |
| 0:19.5 | Rogue One, which I did not hook into when I first |
| 0:22.2 | watched it. And I was already caring more about it because of Andor. And I think even watching a |
| 0:26.7 | new hope and Empire Strikes Back, I will care about more because of Andor, but we care about it in a |
| 0:31.6 | different way. And I also just so respect how Andor does just aim for an incredibly adult audience with the complexity of its exploration of rebellion and revolution, you know, through the Luton character and his kind of darkness. |
| 0:51.2 | And the idea that to pull off a revolution is not clean or pretty. |
| 0:58.5 | It requires immense sacrifice, really dark choices sacrificing people. |
| 1:05.4 | And I love that it went there. |

| 1:18.4 | And it's just, yeah, it's so cool to see Star Wars go into that truly gray area in an adult, |
| 1:25.0 | thoughtful, kind of historically grounded way, just really exciting. |
| 1:29.7 | And it makes me, I want more of this somehow, but I don't know where else in the timeline |
| 1:35.6 | you could do this again, you know, this kind of interesting historical moment feeling |
| 1:42.7 | exploration of Star Wars. It just feels like it's kind of one of Star Wars. |
| 1:44.7 | It just feels like it's kind of one of the kind. |
| 1:48.1 | They'll try. They'll do it wrong. |
| 1:50.5 | Yeah, yeah. |
| 1:51.9 | Hope you enjoyed this preview clip. |
