2 hours 15 minutes

Now that Season 2 is over, we review the REAL finale to Andor: Rogue One, almost 10 years later!

Dave, Maff & Mike dive into the true finale to Andor; 2016’s Rogue One! They compare the movie to the prequels and the two series of Andor, before delving into the many new perspectives Andor brought. As well as Mike providing context & lore to many elements of this iconic movie, the trio discuss their feelings on characters from the show, such as Cassian Andor, Saw Gerrera, Orson Krennic and K-2SO, as well as how the weight of the Battle Of Scarif changes after the last few years of Andor and the lasting impact on the Original Trilogy. The trio also talk about the Vader scenes, Tarkin & Leia’s appearances, Mon Mothma, the rebellion and so much more – this is the ultimate review/breakdown for anyone who has recently finished Andor!
