Spoilers:
The ambush was completely telegraphed.
The dragon dogfight was epic, and the fact that the dragons got away from their riders was a perfect metaphor for war. That was the best moment of the season.
The interactions of the Incest Couple were amazing throughout the entire episode. The looks without words during the war room scene. And then doing the reveal with backs to camera was brilliant direction. Venereal turning back to the camera at the end was adolescent and ruined the moment, but I get they had to hyperventilate for the MCU dummies so I'll throw them that one. The scene itself, magnificent.
The war table was beautiful, and explained why the credits were lame this year -- it was all a setup to that. Also very funny Halloween nod and a joke on those taking this too seriously.
I am so tired of Venereal, I was rooting for her to die with her stillborn Groot baby, but meh, I'll enjoy the Marriage Battle next year.
And I love that Tall Squid Girl is so into her boy. That is a great touch and that actress is so charming.
Finally, the stab into Daenerys face with "I don't wish to be Queen over ashes" was a nice exorcism of the whole tragedy of the first series.
So I'll be more generous. B+. Next year needs more full frontal, right mookie?

I wanted to wait until the season ended for LOTR before I watched. Might start it next week."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

Andor, after three episodes, might be the best Star Wars anything. Jesus.
it's ****ing great. It has the potential to be better than Empire. The music is the best of all media. The directing is incredible. The acting is near the top if not the top. The writing has started very strong, hopefully finishes strong. It's not dumb and childish like almost all Star Wars.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

Noted. I've noticed anything good done in the SWEU in the last 10 years went out of its way to avoid anyone from the main stories (Rogue One, Mandalorian (granted I've only seen S1 so far)).Originally posted by dxmnkd316 View Post

Yup. Rogue One is great. Andor is the prequel to that.Originally posted by French Rage View Post
Mando S1 was very good. But Andor blows that out of the water. And I still love that first season! (S2 is decent, but something just got lost in it a tiny bit)
Andor is good television irrespective of the Star Wars universe.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

Rogue One is trash imo, it is two mediocre films mashed together because the studio meddled and changed a lot. (see also: Solo) Half the story is laughably bad even for Star Wars and the other half makes no sense. Di$ney is a cancer to Star Wars.
