My God your takes on Vel were weird and way too filled with hate FOR NO REASON. You are in the VAST minority when it comes to her. You just fundamentally misunderstand the character

2025-09-12 22:21:15 +0000 UTCjust a quick suggestion it is supper hard to here the show or movies audio in some of these, i would suggest doing some kind of audio normalization on the the source for the movie and on the talking side of things. I have seen it done cant remember the exact way but there is something you can turn on in OBS settings for the source that will boost audio if it is to quite and lower it if it is to loud.

2025-07-04 13:16:15 +0000 UTCHonestly what I love about this, is that it shows another side of the Empire's evil, not with space wizards, or super weapons, but with control and manipulation. A know there are a lot of star wars fans that just want to consume the space battles and lightsaber fights, but I love this part of the story telling. The empire didn't conquer the galaxy by outright being evil at the start, they slowly worked to increase their influence before choking the galaxy in complete tyranny. (Seen in a new hope)

2025-07-02 02:22:42 +0000 UTCSyril always believed he was on the side of good, that he was promoting order and justice. But when confronted, with hard facts, that his Empire was sowing chaos and discord while stealing from the galaxy, he attacked the woman he genuinely loved, who was one of the architects of the horror he was witnessing. The only way he could cope with the massacre was focusing on Cassian who. in his mind at that moment, ruined his life and is responsible for bringing him there. But then Cassian asks "Who are you?" And in that moment, Syril realizes he isn't a force for justice or order. He realizes, he doesn't have an answer to who he is. It would probably take years for him to find just what he stands for in the galaxy. And then he dies, at the hands of the person he hurt just an hour ago.

2025-07-02 02:15:16 +0000 UTCI disagree wholeheartedly. Syril is honestly a good man born at the wrong time. If he was born in the Republic, he would likely have been one of its greatest members. Likely completely uncorruptable, unbribable, relentlessly pursuing in the name of justice. When we first meet him, what gets him in trouble is his inate sense of justice for murdered colleagues. When we meet him in season 2, even though he does boast, you can tell that he truly believes that "Doing your job well, even if you're just a cog" is a noble aspiration. What sets him apart from Dedre is that Syril believes in justice, and promotions/accolades are simply seen as the result of doing a good job. Dedre (and a lot of the rest of the empire) see the promotion/accolades as the goal, not the side effect of good work.

2025-07-02 00:09:27 +0000 UTCSyril isn’t having issues with what’s being done, only that he was being used for it. He had no issues with what the empire did on Farix. Syril views himself as a hero. The empire treating him as it did simply sent the message of how utterly irrelevant he was. That’s why he attacked Cassian. It was all he could do to reestablish the hero fantasy in his head. And it’s why the line “Who are you?” was so devastating. It, again, reinforced how irrelevant he was. He did not matter. He died not a hero of the Empire, just another expendable cog, no different than any other.

2025-07-01 21:56:51 +0000 UTCFor Syril, he has been dreaming of this meeting for years. Cassian is just questioning why some random civilian just jumped him in the middle of a shootout

2025-07-01 18:30:32 +0000 UTCThe entire meaning of this three part chunk is people realizing what they are going to do now the train is off the tracks. Over the year time jump the original leader of the Gorman Front began to realize that they walked into a dangerous trap against the empire, but could not convince the younger generation (including his daughter) what was going to happen Cyril has never been a hardline Empire guy, he is a person who believes in law and order and justice being served. The problem was he is a member of the Empire. In any other story Syril would be the hero and Andor would be the villain. Had Syril found out about what was going on in Gorman a year ago he would have absolutely left in disgust and either would have more than likely been killed due to what he knew or found a way to help people. Sadly it was too little too late and he paid for it with his life Dedra obviously knows the kind of shit she is into due to being ISB but she had hope that she could keep her soul and the one person she loved but ultimately realized she couldn’t. Even the Senator for Ghorman realized the fatal mistake he made in not trusting and siding with Mon when she tried to muster up all the support she could in the previous year to protect Ghorman There are a couple other people to mention but we have to wait for episode 9 The funny thing is the only people who realized that things needed to change and actually took action are the people at Yavin Base, including Vel, Bix and Andor (for a time) . They realized that at this point doing what Luthen wanted was for the most part a net negative for the Rebellion and had to move on from him in order to make it succeed. We see what Luthen’s actions have led to as he had an indirect hand in what would become the Ghorman Massacre.

2025-07-01 18:00:59 +0000 UTCI like how Ep 8 is showing cracks among the Imperial Characters and that deep down that they finally are starting to realize that the thing they've been fighting for is a lie. A lie they've been fed and gaslighted into believing for most of their lives. I'm honestly kind of disappointed with how Cyril's story ended. It seemed like he was on the edge of defecting after realizing that the Empire is not what he was told it was growing up and that the ideals he tried uphold are also a lie. I feel like that fight with Cassian could have ended a bit differently with how he was hesitating. Honestly, Cyril's actions seemed like he was just unleashing all the pent up emotion that had built up to that point and was just venting it out. But once he was all vented out it was like he had a sort of clarity on his face just before he was shot. How crazy would it have been if he'd turned then and there after finally unleashing everything on the person he deemed responsible for everything going wrong in his life? Only to realize that he wasn't his enemy, not really. Then there is Meera, who is also showing cracks over what she's being forced to do, and losing Cyril on top of it and the desperation in her at the end shows that her world is crashing down around her and that its finally hitting her that she might have chosen the wrong side.

2025-07-01 16:02:03 +0000 UTCI love the absolute clash of the titans between Cassian and Syril, how in a high fantasy sci-fi series with laser guns and space magic it comes down to a filthy all out fistfight. Syril fought with his entire soul against what he thought was his nemesis, and died realizing Cass has no idea who the fuck he is.

2025-07-01 13:33:55 +0000 UTCAs they said in 12 Years A Slave: “Your story is amazing…and in no good way.” Andor is incredible, but by God am I depressed by it. Imperials and Ghorman, both were sent there just to die. And they died for worse than nothing: they died so the Empire can make a super weapon to kill millions more.

2025-07-01 13:10:40 +0000 UTC32:14 I am literally sick and tired of all your slander and lies towards Vel, I don't care for your excuses for why you unjustly hate her, I'm just going to skip it and ignore it. And no, I'm not going to agree to disagree as you're just wrong about her utterly and completely.
