    #Andor #EasterEggs #StarWars
    Welcome to ScreenCrush, I’m Ryan Arey, and this is all the Easter Eggs, references, and little things you might have missed in Episode four of Andor.
    So the first three episodes of this series were very much about introducing us to Cassian, exploring his background, and letting us know exactly where he is at this point in his life. In our last video I talked about how all of this shading was necessary to show us his journey, and how it sheds new light on the Rebel Alliance. The first three episodes almost felt like a prologue.
    Now we are getting into the meat of the story, with Cassian getting set up with a heist crew, and we start to see the behind the scenes politicking that led to the Alliance’s creation.
    We begin with Luthen and Cassian barely escaping security forces, with Cassian injured. Star Wars is always at its best when it's telling an underdog story, and this opening can’t recall the ending of the Empire strikes back, when the Imperials are bearing down on Luke and friends after he was maimed by Vader.
    And this. Never gets old. Leave a comment if driving through snow reminds you of hyperspace.
    So they’re heading to planet Aldhani, which was created for this series and thank god they are not headed to Tatooine. There is too. Much. Tatooine.
    So Luthen starts his recruitment pitch, and Cassian lists the various rebel factions. Now Alliance obviously refers to the rebel alliance to restore the republic which would be in its very earliest days at this time. Sect could refer to any number or more organized subsets like a guild or a corporate zone sympathetic to the empire, guerilla refers to anyone doing hit and run attacks on the empire-and partisan front is actually one of the larger groups at this time period. I think this is referring to the group controlled by Saw Gererra.
    Saw began to form this sect in the days right after the empire was formed, as we saw in the bad batch. And by the time of Rogue one, their ruthlessness became legendary, and was seen as a political hindrance by the republic. We even see one of Saw’s partisan attacks in Rogue one. And, in genomiss, he almost committed genocide against the race who built the Death Star.
    Cassian doesn’t think much of any of these groups. He hates the empire, but thinks any organized effort is doomed to fail. His defeatism is a mirror to a lot of people who don;t vote, and say “ah it’s all rigged and corrupt anyways.” Which is kind of like the defeatist, real world version of saying this.
    Man, I never get tired of that. You know we here at ScreenCrush try to show you as many classic movie clips as possible, and one of my favorites relates to Mephisto, and it's one of the greatest movie scenes of all time.
    And guess what? Now you can have your very own not the bees tee shirt, straight from us, and is available for a limited time. If you would like to get one and support our channel, you can check out our merch store at shopzeroedition.com/screencrush.

    Back to the easter eggs.
    Then we get our first major easter egg of the show. We learn that Cassian was sent to an Imperial prison, and at age sixteen he was forced to the front lines on a planet called Minbam. Now Minbam is a world that is very rich in resources, so it was the site of a large battle during the clone wars-the empire moved to seize all of its resources, resulting in a bloody war called the Minimum campaign.

      Same goes for this instance. The Rakatan are now Canon as galactic conquerors, but none of the lore as we know it is canon.
      It's been left open ended so that any change Disney wants to make can be done.
      When they start dropping legends lore like the Rakatan are actually responsible for the state Tattoine is in, back into current canon is when we should start getting excited.

    Did u get that Aldhani is filmed in Scotland, it's up the road from where the established titles have their plots. The actor that plays perrin is a famous Scottish actor that played archie in monarch of the Glen who was a laird of the land. The story of Aldhani mirrors the Highland clearances of Scotland where the crofters were moved to the lowlands to work in the shipyards and factories for the growing empire.

    • @watcherzero5256
      @watcherzero5256 Год назад

      They wernt moved to work in the factories and shipyards, the Imperial industry of the central belt wouldnt get going until about a 100 years later. They were moved because the Lairds realized they earned more money from sheep than they did from subsistence farmers paying rent for their cottages and small holdings (while other Lairds believed they were moving perpetually malnourished people out of drafty shacks into a warmer & healthier environment in better quality housing). Some lairds built whole new fishing villages for the people to move to on the coast.

  • @rayn619
    @rayn619 Год назад +3

    My thoughts while watching the episode:
    1. The "secret police" are white blood cells. They wear white and this fits with their leader's description of their actual purpose being to fight disease. Cool visual metaphor.
    2. Blevin attributes the failure of the security force to a combination of "Idiocy, Ineptitude, and total disengagement." It may be obvious that each of these qualities refer one of the three men in front of him, but I think the qualities also speak to the cause of future failures of the empire, the shortcomings in imperial attitude that Cassian is able to take advantage of. Cool foreshadowing.
    3. I also liked how Cassian says that the Empire had them fighting themselves in that war, and then we see the Empire secret police suffering from infighting as well. I think this shows another weakness that the rebels will take advantage of. I mean, if they had shared the raw data, then the Officer would have had Cassian's image and name connected to the missing sealed starchart thingy. I'm sure that would have caused lots of trouble for him in his future missions. I doubt they'd have let him walk into Skardiff for example. Luke would have never been able to blow up the Death Star if the secret police had just said, "ok, here's the file." in that single moment (3 moments actual, 3 strikes you're out.) I think there is also historical precedence to Nazi Germany suffering from all of its officers being to ambitious/competitive. The inquisitors in Obi Wan also had similar problems. It may have been a throwaway line from Cassian, but I think it is also meant to show a pattern of the Empire's weaknesses. Cool juxtaposition.

    It's kind of funny that Gilroy said there'd be no fan service, but clearly there is quite a bit, he just doesn't beat you over the head with it. ;)
    Gilroy himself said he wasn't a Star Wars fan, but this just goes to show that if you have good writing and directing, it doesn't really matter if the director had Star Wars bedsheets or not. In fact it was probably a bit of an advantage in a series like this.

      @@wavytiger1 Well, most of the things mentioned are in the script, so it's not just props. The only thing Gilroy has really done differently than other directors is, if something doesn't make sense he'll retcon it. Andor's age is a great example. For the story to work it made no sense for Andor to be 25 in Rogue one, so Gilroy altered it. Maybe that's what he means by "Fan Service", in that it's blindly sticking to older content regardless if it makes sense.
      If so, I totally agree with him. One thing I hate is when writers/directors spend so much time and energy trying to explain/justify bad writing (or flat out mistakes) from older content. Star Wars spending so much time trying to explain the The Kessell Run is probably the best example in all of movies. Lucas made a mistake where he used the wrong terminology, he admitted he screwed up, but people couldn't leave it alone and we end up getting whatever the heck we got in Solo...we also got half a movie based around a pair of dice hanging from a rear view mirror, a scene where he learned to shoot first, etc., etc., etc.

    • @TheRealAlpha2
      @TheRealAlpha2 Год назад +4

      Fan service and simply connecting the existing dots are two separate things. We''re going to hear about certain planets and settings that are important because they're part of characters histories (or futures for that mater) while fan services is simply things that shoehorned in or remind you of something else in the lore without purposeful context. Of course, the props department could put tons of familiar references in the background, but it's not taking focus off the story to do that.

When Luthen is moonlighting as an antiquities collector and meets with Mon Motha in the back room, it was tense. You can feel the pressure and the stakes they are under.

    Stellan Skarsgard as Luthen grounds the show, and gives it dramatic heft.
    Even with all the excellent performances by the other actors, Skarsgard's Luthen gets your attention on the immediacy and importance of the situation.
    Luthen balances pragmatist and idealist as best he can, all the while putting on a front as an antiquities dealer.
    He is passionate in his efforts.
    Diego Luna is a marvel as Cassian Andor.
    His slow burn approach grounds the character, and makes Andor's journey all the more heartbreaking.
    The show is exemplary in it's story and character development.

    When you were talking about Mas Amedda I was waiting for you to bring up that her husband had Sly Moore in the guest list.
    Sly Moore worked closely with Amedda and Palpatine and was a Force Adept who had the ability to manipulate the minds of others, which makes her an extremely dangerous guest to have at a dinner party where you are trying to hide your allegiances.
    I'm hoping we get to actually see some of this dinner party and that it isn't just a name-drop.

    In Luthen's gallery there is a 2nd suit of armor on a rack and seen in multiple shots. It's been altered, but it looks an awful lot like Darth Starkillers Ubese armor from the special mission of The Force Unleashed, where if you kill Vader and become the emperors new enforcer Galen has the suit surgically attached to his body and you turn Luke to the darkside by the end of the level on Hoth.

    • @LexFett
      @LexFett Год назад

      I was going to ask the same. Because I also think it could be sort of a reference to the Knights of Ren. But damn! It does seems similar to the Starkiller one

    • @Hawk199031
      @Hawk199031 Год назад +3

      @@LexFett The helmet is for sure Darth Starkiller's Ubese helmet but they put those weird fans or blades on it idk what to call them.
      The rest of the suit is harder to make out and doesn't really look like the suit he has in the game.

    I absolutely loooost it at the Jar Jar part. Not saying you are wrong. It's a possibility, but that was the best part of this video. Thank you!! Cannot wait to see how this all plays out! Loving it so far. It's taking me back to the old star wars the rpg paper and dice days, when my cousins and i went deep undercover for the rebel alliance, against the ISB.

    My money’s on Skeen being the traitor. He telescopes two-face to me. His blaster-in the face- alarm clock for Nemik in their introductory scene was pretty blunt foreshadowing.
    You took the words straight out of my mouth regarding the espionage element.
    This episode did a very good job of ratcheting up the paranoia of a great spy story. The spy genre would serve the Star Wars galaxy well. It was employed in Rogue One, but to a very small degree. But a full tilt, Cold War spy thriller like John LeCarre writes would open up so many fresh possibilities in this universe.

    • @AdamRossD
      @AdamRossD Год назад +1

      I agree on Skeen. BUT I'm not sure if it's just because he was so shady in The Bear and my mind can't separate him from that role anymore :)

    • @LogistiQbunnik
      @LogistiQbunnik Год назад

      I don't think they would make it that obvious though. Skeen seemed to be the least trusting of "Clam" so I'd be almost certain he will be the one to trust Cassian at the right moment when the traitor does their thing.

    The Rakatan Invaders reference is more than just a callback to Knights of the Old Republic games, it has a possible connection to The Book of Boba Fett when the Tusken Chief tells Fett how Tatooine used to be a water based planet until it became sand.
    In the Dawn of the Jedi EU comics (published in 2012 then cancelled after the buyout), it is stated the Infinite Empire bombarded Tatooine to prevent rebellion and to try to end the virus plagueing their species. This in turn caused the native species to devolve into two branches - Jawas and Tuskens and left the planet the barren deserts we all know and love.

  • @ericsilver9401
    @ericsilver9401 Год назад +1

    You should have gone into more detail about the rakatans, your explanation makes them seem like some obscure race, but they were actually some of the most impactful and important species to ever exist in the Star Wars galaxy and the rise of humans over them was unprecedented, making the gift incredibly valuable

    Great vid. Always watch these immediately after an episode! One thing that stuck out to me while watching is Aldhani is described as as having "Highlands" and "Lowlands", and the people of the Highlands (having been there for centuries) were forcibly removed to the more industrial Lowlands. This seens a stark parallel to the Highland Clearances from 1700s-1800s Scotland - pretty sure that planet is even shot in Scotland...
