Made me laugh in the middle of the office, well done! :)

What a perfect time for an anti fascist story!

And generally pro-Marxist as well, as much as corporate media can be.

How's it Marxist? I didn't see any class warfare stuff mentioned.

Resistance to Imperialism is a pretty big factor for the story, and Andor focuses a lot more on the political economy than most Star Wars media does, as well as focusing more on the revolutionary aspect.

It's no Disco Elysium, though.

I got high expectations for this. Which is probably bad, hope they didn't mess it up after the success of the first season.

Yep, same thoughts here. I want it to be good so badly

They went pretty hard on that preview, they best be able to back it up on release.

That music was certainly a choice, way too much guardian of the galaxy vibes. I think would have preferred something more orchestral. But hopefully the season is good and that's what matters.
