Unlike AnyĀ Star WarsĀ Story!
#Andor is unlike any @starwars story that we've ever seen before. @diegoluna_ is at the center of a stunning & dangerous world in turmoil. It's gritty, mature, and the most intelligent and well-informed story we've had to date. Tony Gilroy is a genius. pic.twitter.com/pfZwlmZ0HD

Spectacular!
Iāve seen the first 3 eps of #Andor and I say this with the utmost conviction: this is going to be the show that gets me back into Star Wars. ANDOR introduces new, memorable characters, plus an intriguing arc for Andor. And it actually has something to say!
Ep 3 is spectacular. pic.twitter.com/6iV23ot6Na

Most MatureĀ Star WarsĀ to Date!
#Andor is the most mature Star Wars to date (feels akin to an HBO drama). Grounded story w/ intimate stakes & serious tone that shows a new side of the Empire. Overcomes a slowish start in first 2 eps. Stellan SkarsgƄrd is fantastic & Diego Luna is somehow even better than in RO pic.twitter.com/9y1jWf7DSJ

Blown Away!
Iām absolutely blown away by the audacity of #ANDOR. We often have to say āStar Wars has always been politicalā to counter people who would deny that fact. Well this show is actively angry at the people denying it. Audacious, timely, raw, & exceedingly thoughtful. Powerful work.

Love Its Grounded Approach!
I've watched 4 episodes of #Andor & I'm loving its more simple ground-level approach. It's different from the other shows, less humor. Plays like a crime drama more than a space opera. I dug how it highlights low-level Empire leaders as it reveals a rebel alliance slowly forming pic.twitter.com/SNsBIDrhbq

Compelling!
Just saw the first three episodes of #Andor and they were GREAT! Definitely a slow burn, but always compelling to watch. Itās very different for a Star Wars project but it works well. The third episode especially was SO good! I canāt wait to talk about it more. B2-EMO is a star. pic.twitter.com/uwDezRaSak

Fantastic!
#Andor is FANTASTIC. Takes its time building but when the third episode hits it pops off in a fascinating way. The most mature Star Wars tv story yet & truly the start of the rebellion. The more I sit with this series the more I fall for this story & canāt wait for the rest pic.twitter.com/QcD08w31GB
