Andor... Why It's Great!

Описание: Andor is the newest Star Wars show on Disney plus and this video essay is why it's great. Cassian Andor has been in Star Wars before in 2016's Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Even though Cassian died in that movie, the series Andor is about Cassian's origins and how he goes from being a normal man to becoming a Rebel. Lucasfilm created something special, and in this video essay I explain why Star Wars Andor is great!

Andor is brilliant. This is a show that is nothing like what we’ve gotten before. The characters, the worldbuilding, the story, the production is all top tier in this series. In this video, we’re going to dive deep into these different aspects of Andor and why it’s arguably the best Star Wars show we’ve gotten on disney plus. Hello everybody and welcome to another video, my name is the gold man and today we’re going to talk about Andor, and why it’s great.
Before we begin talking about the 4 arcs of the first season, I want to focus on something I’ve never really focused on before when talking about Star Wars. I wouldn’t call it world building so much as I would call it immersion. After my initial watch and even my rewatch, I had an incredibly tough time pinpointing why this show felt so reel. Star Wars has never felt so grounded in literally anything it’s done before. But I couldn’t put my finger on why. Sure there aren’t any gigantic space battles or galactic ending events. So it couldn’t be something story related but rather something production related. So I went back to Rogue One and after watching it, when it came to this shot of Krennic looking up at the death star, it finally hit. This shot always resonated with me because it’s really the first time the viewer can grasp the scale of the size of the death star from an individual's perspective. Sure he got shots like this of the death star in a new hope of the death star, but considering the background is the openness of space it’s still tough to grasp the scale. Rogue One often shot many of its scenes from the characters perspective. Not all the time but a good amount of time. With Andor almost none of the shots are these wide angle introduction shots. Sure we have a few, but almost everything is directly from the angle of the characters or a medium shot around the characters. Even when we get establishing shots they’re from the angle of people in starships. Now I want to emphasize that these shots don’t automatically make a show great. The Star Wars movies are full of these wide beautiful shots and they enhance the movie greatly. But Andor isn’t a space opera, it’s about people. I’ll get more in depth with this in a bit, but the whole theme of Andor is how rebellions and empires are mostly run by normal people. If this show wants to focus on normal people, then the best thing I could do is try and put the audience in the perspective of the people. Like these one shots of the tie fighters flying by. Never has a single tie fighter seemed so menacing. But when looking at it from the perspective of an individual on the ground then of course a tie fighter will be threatening. Moments like these and moments like looking up at a star destroyer are what grounds Andor. Another way it does that is by adding such incredibly minor details that viewers can subconsciously relate with. In Force Awakens something that has always been on the back of my mind is that during the Starkiller base fight, none of the characters seem cold.
