I’m guessing it’ll be the young kid or the tough, wiry looking guy. But I hope it’s neither.

Worse still is I’m out of town this week and won’t be able to watch the new episode till Friday.

Damn good episode. It’s like ‘Heat’ meets Star Wars.

Need to re watch after work to catch the details of what went down in the attack, but as predicted this one was excellent.

I thought the comms officer was the radio man in R1.  Guess not.

Also, Cassian doing Cassian things at the end.  

Plus, like that they thought of real inertia like the Expanse.

Oh, and if you haven't watched the episodes, stay out of the thread until you do.  Not hard, I do it every week.

Maybe this is common knowledge, but a note on the actual value of the 80 million credits.

A new X-Wing is 150k credits.

I rewatched it this evening.  Only complaint I have is that the blasters sounded off.  And the TIE-fighters weren't screaming but I suspect that was subdued for the scene, which was amazing.

I didn't notice the difference in blasters at all, but I can see the TIE fighters being su dued for the sound design.

Because they thought he didn’t believe in The Cause. These are broke-ass revolutionaries who either had nothing or lost everything. 30 large meant this guy Andor was paid to be there and didn’t *have* to be there.

This show has one thing that the other series are missing.... stakes.

Going into the mission, you didn't know what was going to happen and who was going to make it out alive.  

After now seeing the episode, I can say that all the buildup was worth it.

This series is doing a fantastic job of capturing the organic and gritty angle that I love. You feel that every character is fully developed, if you only see them for a few moments.

Latest episode felt very much like A Bridge Too Far in its action scenes. Not fast, but definitely not stagnant.

Episode 6 really paid off.  Looks like the people that planned this robbery never read a Dick Marcinko book and failed to save a seat for “Murphy”.  Cassian getting the kid’s manifesto at the end… an idealist is about to be born.  Great writing.

The Indian one maybe but the blonde, no. She choked.

I’m glad the lesbian thing wasn’t more overt, because it didn’t need to be. My son didn’t pick up on it because it was subtle. Felt more realistic anyway.

Good episode.

I recall they discussed marching with weapons pointed out? In this episode everyone had their weapon at the low ready pointed inward toward the other person.

Not common knowledge to this guy.

That would be enough to grab a Venator-class Star Destroyer and 130 x-wings according to the wiki nerds. I wonder if the writers/producers were aware the actual value. That's a hefty payroll.

Even if they didn't...they are not just stealing payroll to be a thorn in the Empire's side... they're stealing payroll to start the revolution in earnest.

I'm not happy that "the message" is being pushed in this show even if only slightly so far.  

I do like the show, so I was disappointed about the lesbian crap being slid in there. I'm afraid this is only the beginning for this in Star Wars Disney properties.

It's a shame, but for that crap the show has been very good so far.

He was also in Elysium.

We will see where it goes, but gay stuff isn't exactly new in film. Hell - Game of Thrones was laden with it and no one gave a damn. If it becomes Bros...I'll check out.

Did anyone else think him shooting Skeen was a bit...extreme?  How about a "No" there, killer?

I thought the military bits were a bit silly but, with a few exceptions, I'm resigned to no one in Hollyweird ever getting it right.

"Company...HALT!" to a four man "squad".
