i wanna see a dave filony tony gilroy collaboration, just to see the clashes in their styles
filoni: so these rebel soldiers are true heroes, they’re risking it all to stop this great evil hanging over the galaxy, i wanted to explore this squad more and see what they were doing when luke wasn’t around, and to explore their connection to the force. this one has a lightsaber she found but doesn’t know how to use, and over the course of the series she’s going to learn to be in tune with the force and become a powerful jedi
gilroy: anyways i felt it was important that after the combat we spent a few episodes going over the impact of the death star’s destruction on the galaxy, and the logistics of the rebel alliances movements over time. plus i thought we needed to know wedge antilles’ ideological reasons for fighting the empire, so we learn he’s a gerrerite when he executes a former seperatist fighter for the war crimes he committed on wedges home planet and frames bria tharen for it
i want him to get more star wars shows, because andor rules so hard. spending the episode after a massive heist almost entirely focused on the empires response to it and all the politics involved is truly :galaxy-brain:
