I believe this to be a way more carefully planned and designed background for the show than any other so far. And its all cinematic which creates high expectations and i cant lie im hyped for this one
@Wayzor in fairness, basically all of star wars guns are slightly modified real life guns. The E-5 is a british sten gun i believe, the sandtrooper gun (dont't remember the name, but its in a new hope and is very long) is a german MG34. the issue is how well known the AK is, and that they didn't disguise at all. besides that, the trailer is fantastic.
This actually looks good. Like a good idea for a story, you know a story that gets told because it might be good, instead of one being told because Disney needs to make money of legacy characters.
If this comes anywhere near close to Rogue One it will be not only the finest Star Wars show yet but also must see TV for people not even into the franchise. Very, very excited about this and thats from an OSWT fan 😄
@Embecmom It is like pointing out the least rotten banana in the pile of rotting bananas. I will agree purely on the Vader scene being the single best moment across all of the modern movies.
A horrible movie filled with canon breaking plot holes and forgettable unlikable characters. The only redeeming scene from the entire movie was Vader, take that out and there was nothing to like about the movie.
Aside from the occasional SW legacy designs, this looks way grounded. It feels like we're finally seeing some world building and designs that aren't being regurgitated over and over again from other series and films
@Pyotr Growpotkin Totally agree. Rogue One is the best SW (to be honest, the only one I really liked since the original trillogy) and Andor trailer looks amazing too. Might be good show!
The thing that has me stoked is that, they're treating Andor like an actual TV Series like The Mandalorian. S1 is going to have 12 episodes to flesh and pace everything out smoothly with a S2 already confirmed for another additional 12 episodes leading into Rouge One. This will be a journey I can't wait to see.
@logan hopefully it isn't another halo TV show. That show shouldn't exist it is beyond terrible. I really have hope for this series so if it turns out to be halo 2.0 I will be disappointed (BTW I'm a halo fan)
I believe this to be a way more carefully planned and designed background for the show than any other so far. And its all cinematic which creates high expectations and i cant lie im hyped for this one
Andor looks really great. It's a rather new character and it's good to have his own show. What would've been a great thing was for him to have something similar to Kyle Katarn in regards to his story.
This actually looks like it will be quality, the shots and cinematography looks nuts. It doesn't feel like traditional SW and that's GREAT! Taking its self serious is what it will set it apart. Rogue One was fantastic, hope the creators cook the same quality here.
That's the way! Bring back the Anthogly prequels! At least in spirit just like this and extended in prestige tv format! What we've always wanted! Can't wait!
@Papa Cole Because it seems like Andor is relying on more than just fan service. And this is coming from someone that actually liked Kenobi, flaws and all. This is what the new era of Star Wars should have been: risk taking.
Aside from the space AK47 and space riot sheilds for protestors, this looks great, the SW universe is so much more than jedi and sith hopefully this show can start something great where other shows/films have been lacking in the universe, love the music and set design, just hope the writing holds up because the cast is more than good enough for this to be great!
@Gabriel Yulaw yeh obvs but almost all star wars media uses it as a focal point, in a galaxy especially after the republics downfall that had little to no knowledge or concept of the force apart from the talk of myth, if it was set in the old Republic or the prequel era by all means use the jedi and sith, but after canonicaly there was little to no force users (excluding all the random retcons Disney have intoduced of having every 2nd person be able to use the force) Ontop of all this star wars has many factions and characters with no allegiance or affiliation to sith or jedi, there's more than plenty they could conjure into a compeling story without the use of lightsabers and space magic tbf.
But don't knock Jedi vs Sith. After all, it was this concept which is a very special part that Star Wars was predicated upon. Also making the saga an extremely popular franchise on a global scale.
The fact that it's Gareth Edwards the original director of Rogue One Gives me way more faith than the rest of the Dog water that Disney has produced up till now.
This looks so awesome, that i feel so sad that Obiwan got rushed and pooped out. Would have even enjoyed Ewan playing a minor role in this one instread of what they gave him to work with.
This is a perfect example of how you do a trailer. You’re not getting a synopsis or plot of the the entire series, but it perfectly gives you a setting and a vibe. That’s a trailer!!!
HAHAHAHAHAAA! it told us exactly everything - who are the bad guys, who are the good guys faking they're the bad guys, how he rebellion starts... but yeah, vibe.
Wow, you should honestly watch the trailers for The Division, all SWToR Game and Add-On trailers, Metal Gear Solid 5, Horizon Zero Dawn and some others. Then you'll know what an amazing trailer looks like. This here is just an okay~ish trailer showing a completely uninteresting series.
This looks like it can be a substitute to George Lucas' idea for an underground coruscant show. We've seen surprisingly little of the inner workings of coruscant and the empire during the early empire era. Makes me excited :). Nice to see Saw Guerrerra too, I hope they lean in to his darker and more extreme side, and don't make him a generic hero.
1:14 that one shot of imperial cops with shields felt so real and so terrifying, that one shot gets me everytime i watch this trailer (trust me ive seen it many times now)
I cant wait to see this. The makers of Rouge One are by far the most superior out of ALL of the modern Star wars Guff Abominations! They remained loyal to the originals!
This movie trailer had me excited from JUMP! Star Wars is doing what fans have always come to love with music or soundtrack themes. I remember hearing the Mandalorian theme and humming it loudly with my granddaughter, this one caught me too, sounding like Abraham’s Daughter by Arcade from The Hunger Games soundtrack. I can’t wait to see this series!
I'm so excited for this show. Because it's a relatively new cast, I trust that the show will actually be good on their own merits, compared to shows like kenobi and book of boba fett, which could rely on the established characters to get away with relatively bad stories
Speaking of expanding I'm wondering when we'll ever see the wild space and the unknown regions. Isn't there something in the pipeline about the Chiss coming up?
@Darth Marr we’ve seen like 1 of these characters. A few others have had tiny amounts of screentime and everyone else is new. What are you talking about.
Definitely excited for this one…Rogue One was more Star Wars quality the prequels. The director knows the true Star Wars storyline and look. Can’t wait!
This looks genuinely better than any of the other star wars shows - it's cinematic! I'm super excited for this one. I hope the show stays true to the serious and darker tone that the trailers presents.
@[REDACTED] Kenobi definitely should have been a movie imo. The Mandalorian is a good example of what should be a show vs a movie. The MCU has the same problem with their shows. I mean none of the shows have impressed me and everything feels so crammed together. If you’re gonna make it 6 episodes at least make each one an hour. The Boys is 8 episodes a season and each are an hour. Flash and Arrow are 20 episodes a season with 42 minutes. It’s not like Disney doesn’t have the money.
Once you get over the pretty visuals and pay attention to the dialogue. I think the show will be about a more grounded start of a rebel faction, and ends with Ashoka putting them in touch with other rebel factions. But the Ashoka reveal would be at the very end. This would help tie in starwars rebels, give Ashoka some hype before her show, and allow this show to tell its story.
Wouldn't it be nice to see the composer / musicians etc get a credit on every trailer that arrives on youtube... y'know... to help them get recognition, publicity, interest in their revenue stream channels etc. Just a thought.
@Mutantelamadrid But you should also look back at the Kenobi trailer -- there was only a hint of shaky cam (just like this trailer), and the series ended up using it in every other scene.
im glad they are giving some love to the throw away characters of a throw away movie. Still, rouge one is one of the better pieces of star wars content that has been released in the past 10 years.
Went from one of the sw projects I had not much interest into one of the show I’m the most hyped for currently. Let’s hope Disney doesn’t disappoint this time, because the trailer calls for something on a whole new level that what we’ve seen in recent live action shows…
Same, I shrugged when I heard of that show being made initially, but since watching this trailer I'm super pumped. Will definitely re-activate my Disney subscription.
This is possibly the best blend of the prequals and original trilogy I've seen. It captures both of them so seamlessly. I assume they were going for this, and honored them both so well. I hope they are proud of their good work.
lol not really. It doesn't feel like either the prequals or the original trilogy. It feels like its own thing, which is why it is so good. Star wars needs to keep doing new things like this if it wants to continue to have supportive fans.
The music in the beginning, which becomes the background of the music for the rest of the trailer really reminds me of the show 'Dark'. Instant chills.
Crossing my fingers we'll get to see my two favoritest alien bit-players, Bistan and Moroff. No biggie, Tony Gilroy is the master of the modern spy-thriller. His collaboration with Lucasfilm has been a dream come true for this lifelong SW fan. I know we'll be getting something very different, hopefully a little more mature than previous small screen entries. Awesome though they are.
As someone whose favorite movie is Rogue One, this has made me so excited that I can't put it into words. I can't believe how good everything looks, and I'm so happy they brought characters I wished I could've seen more stories like Saw Guerrera and Cassian.
To those who don't see what is it about Rogue One that's so captivating, at least for me, is that it wasn't just about a family strong with the Force, but the ground people that had to deal with the Empire. Nobody in the group wanted to be there, but they knew they needed to. Every sacrifice made, had a reason, and it pushed the plot in a way no other S.W. movie was able to in my opinion. The characters were unique and interesting. Not to mention the photography and themes. I'm really excited about this new era after The Mandalorian, Boba and Kenobi.
Rogue One is amazing! It just feels different, better quality than the rest story-wise, cinematography, editing, casting ... just great! So definitely looking forward to this!
I see some Expanse influences in terms seeming to have a grittier more lived in seeming world compared to the usual polished almost cgi look modern Star Wars sometimes has. Looks good.
Im more hyped for this than any disney+ series. This just really hits and feels different. AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED. Disney hasn't given us more than tatooine and the mandalorian. They have just been feeding of one success and that was annoying. Boba Fett didn't even appear in two episodes of his own show. So I'm excited to see something original again
Absolutely stunning!! THIS is what I’ve dreamed of Star Wars on the small screen looking like. The scope and production value is incredible. The era, the characters, the look, the vibe. It all looks absolutely fantastic.
The fact that it comes from creators of Rogue One gives me hope. Rogue One and both Mandalorian seasons are only Star Wars content from Disney Era that it’s not embarrassingly bad and disappointing. And after the tragedy of Obi-wan show (which still had good trailers) I can’t be really hyped for another SW tv show.
The difference in the quality of cinematography, lighting, editing and set design between this and all of the other Star Wars shows thus far is just absolutely ridiculous. Finally they have a team that appears to actually know how to change the settings on a camera and use Final Cut.
It actually shows the suffering the people went through when the empire was in full power. As a Mexican born and raised i am so proud of Diego Luna being in the Star Wars universe.
I have a feeling this will be the best Star Wars show to date. Finally we’re getting a more expanded vision of the Star Wars universe. It’s time to see something completely new. This is what we need.
