Spoilers Andor - Season 2

[cooleddie74]

Luthen is the cold operative the Rebels needed in order to get a future where such people were no longer necessary. I get why some fans think he's too brutal and unforgiving, but the Rebellion was teetering on a tightrope where it could have gone either way and all depending on whether or not the secret Imperial superweapon could be stopped.

In real life societies tolerate even worse to get to noble ends.

A comment on a Luthen video on YouTube hits hard and I can't say I really disagree with it.

"Thinking about it, Luthen is the perfect adversary for Sidious, two masterminds, both cunning, both manipulative, both hiding for years under the noses of their enemies and both willing to sacrifice anyone to get what they want, the only thing that seperates them: a desire for control and a desire for freedom."

the only thing that seperates them: a desire for control and a desire for freedom."

The other thing that separates them is that Luthen didn't shoot himself in the face with lighting twice.

Talk about not learning from your mistakes.

Thats like your subjective opinion .

But for many of us the last jedi was complete festering shit.

The best starwars movie since 1980s was rogue one, also my subjective opinion.

For me Rouge One is the best Disney era movie.

As for Ryan Johnson, he's a good film maker. Knifes Out was great.
Star Wars fan or not he messed up on Last Jedi.

The need to subvert expectations in TLJ was a mistake.
Not saying you can't have your hero's make mistakes and stumble and lose their way. Think they took it a little too far with Luke.
Also the whole thing with Poe and Fin side plots just fell a little flat for me.

Whilst The Force Awakens is ANH rehash it did a good enough job setting up a new trilogy. I know many disliked what they did with Han Solo, I kinda like it. Whist he was no longer with Princess Leia and at a low point in life with what has happened to his son. He felt like the character still. He was still the Rouge with the heart of gold. And I liked the parallel he was now the mentor character like obi wan kenobi was ANH.
