It's because the Sequel movies and 4 terrible TV shows ruined Star Wars for everyone. Andor is soo good, it's wasted in this universe. Always remember that THIS writing is canon alongside Lizzo and Jack Black.
@@TheTexasDice Yeah, after the sequels and especially book of boba fett, many people weren't that hyped for more star wars.

I have a tiny hope for ahsoka to be good, but i wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't.
Maarva's remains being used to whack a fascist and spark an entire rebellion is exactly the send-off she would have wanted. She's living the dream, even in death.
I think you are all misreading his reactions. He’s a dark presence. He’s a dark side force user, if not aligned with Sidious, then probably allied with Dooku or Maul. He’s going to turn out to not be the hero you think he is.
@@nateinindy3460 there's no force users in this season, the writers clearly said. And you're clearly missing the point of the show, none of the characters are truly good, they're very unethical people fighting for freedom, the rebellion wasn't built by purity, it was these type of men who lit the spark for rebellion
She started the speech by saying her name. That's when I realized the show 'Andor' it's not just about a rebel named Andor. It represents one of the seeds that fire the rebellion. Such amazing writing.
There was so much emotion in the way she said it. It felt real and was a reflection of the justified anger everyone in the crowd was feeling toward the empire in that moment. Brilliant performance by Fiona Shaw.
She SPITS it out like a bad taste, and I love it! Plus I remember her doing something similar when she called the Empire bastards back in episode 3. :)
Andor is a masterpiece of SW writing. It’s not relying on past references from movies or shows, cheesy dialogue, or a lot of action scenes. It does it’s own thing and does it beautifully. I can’t understand why some SW fans do not like this show, but those that enjoy this show truly love it.
*Like I keep saying. The entire star wars universe isn't for everyone. But, everyone CAN find SOMETHING within the star wars universe to enjoy & love. We're not going to like or love everyone that the universe has to offer us, whether it's a book, comic book, TV show or film. I personally have loved the show in it entirety, but some other fans just can't get into it & that's totally fine.*
@The Northie *Lol! Naw. Not me. I don't care. The creators work with what they have & present us the final product that I won't critique in its entirety for the most part. I just want to sit, watch & hope that I enjoy what I'm watching in those moments.*
But good grief there are fans downright hostile to this show. I love Andor but not so much the other Disney plus live action Star Wars shows but I would never go on a RUclips channel and comment just to get a rise. Childish.
He's the man who's been killing Rebels in the dark for the greater good. Maybe this speech helps him reconsider, that there is no 'greater' good, there's just the good and he hasn't been the one doing it.
@@smartalec2001 He already knows that what he’s doing is wrong though. He just thinks it’s necessary for him to dirty his hands. That’s literally what his monologue was about, how he sacrificed his future and any chance of redemption with it.
This show can easily hit GOT status if they can do 4 seasons of this leading to Rogue One in all honesty this beats House of The Dragon for show of the year since Better Call Saul is out of the running season
The scene where Cassian is trying to talk Marva into leaving and she refuses is an absolute MASTER CLASS in acting by Fiona Shaw....specifically when Cassian says, "I won't have peace, I'll be worried about you all the time..." and she replies, "that's just love..." wooooo chills
@@Deletaste As someone that lives under the constant question of whether to immigrate or not, those lines encapsulate why I'm convinced no option will fully make me happy.
Luthen feeling inspired again…no doubt he has had 2nd thoughts about what he has started and whether the empire can fall…the empire is a disease that thrives in darkness it is never more alive than when we sleep..What a show
*I believe that what Maarva said in that speech & what he saw from the people of Ferrix has had a positive affect him moving forward with the rebellion.*
And in the end it was all for nothing as the galaxy descends into Anarchy and darkness with everyone only looking out for themselves. I wonder if the empire was right considering what happened to the galaxy after dosent seem to be much better off.
Luthen when he said in his monologue before "I share my dreams with ghosts" resonated so hard seeing his reaction at 3:20. Maarva's speech gave further proof to him that he is indeed sharing his dreams with ghosts.
I love that they don’t show Maarva dying, but rather show this message from her. That her words and her spirit for her fellow Ferrix folks are what she is. Not merely a dead body, but a woman whose final words gave hope and pride to a city of people who were wronged. That Maarva was more important than showing her death.
Kino, Nemik, Luthen, and Maarva. 4 monologues in one season of one show that rival or surpass all other SW franchise media. So much emotion and power from such incredible writers and actors. The score only elevates the experience and it really does make the fire in my soul burn bright hearing them.
@@liamphibia Usually shows with so many speeches and monologues get boring. But Andor not only keeps you listening, but it makes you want more. Nemik and Maarva have such great speeches alone.
I teared up a little at the speech. Cause she's right. Oppression grows in the dark, while we remain ignorant and sleep. We won't know it's taken over us until it's too late, unless we wake up. I felt like it was somehow both a parallel and a contrast to Luthen's monologue- The two sides of the rebellion, the sacrifice, and the hope. Only together can the rebellion truly succeed, and I think even Luthen realized that when he was hearing Maarva's message.
WE just got the Twitter files and see what they were doing in the dark. People need to care more. Canada and Oregon just past legislation to take away our means to stop them. They can't hide the truth, but postponing it's airing prevents us from rising up.
The speech is written so brilliantly as it takes it time and slowly builds to one of the most inspirational and heartfelt I have ever heard as she delivers that final passionately delivered line “Fight the empire!!!” just before the empire silences her. Some truly great writing !
What I particularly love is that they proved her right, if they had kept back instead of trying to silence her the riot wouldnt have started, but they did. In that moment they demonstrated the truth of her words and the need to fight. The tighter the hand of the oppressor grips the more slips through his fingers which wonderfully links to Leia too.
The other thing I love about Maarva’s speech is how labored her breathing is- it’s almost like this speech was given as her last dying breath. She spent the final moments of her life sparking the rebellion!
Andor is hands down the greatest Star Wars television series ever!!! That speech was truly inspiring and the real life corporatist empire of the world better wake up, because a real life Marva could inspire the revolt we need today...
out of all the fantastic moments in this show, and there are many, this scene is probably my favorite. maarva's brick being used to beat the crap out of imperials literally made me cheer.
When Brasso looks at Wilmon and you see the tear running down Wilmons cheek... right when Maarva is saying that it's easy for the dead to tell us to fight. Especially considering what happened to his father. Just amazing. it's such a powerful moment. There are so many layers to this speech within the show and a reflection on our own world and experiences. Such an amazing moment that I will never forget.
3:50 one of my favourite shots in all of Star Wars. High angle of Brasso looking up to Maarva, and looking up towards hope: the hope for Ferrix. His expression timed with the musical cue is bone-chilling and awesome, and I don't think there are many other Star Wars scenes that produce this type of pure awe for me. Masterful ❤️
I’ve rewatched this scene 5 times and every time I tear up, watching Luthen realize that the rebellion has is in fact fought everywhere like Nemik said seeing the woman who raised the lad he came to kill is in fact the rebel leader he wished to be
The build up to Maarva's speech, the score building during the speech, the faces of the ferrix citizens, the imperial officer becoming more agitated, the score building building growing, the tears down the face of the boy as he makes his personal decision.....wow....just.....wow.......for me the most powerful moment in all of Star Wars.....BRAVO TONY GILROY!!!!
There is so much deep, deep lore and meaning woven into this speech. In just a few minutes we learn about decades of this woman's life, the culture she grew up in, the hopes and fears of an entire generation of people. Incredible.
So I didn’t except her funeral speech to be the birthplace of the rebellion but I love it. It’s such a great speech and the way people react is so cool. Ferrix is the hearth of the rebellion and maarva is the first rebel. Love this.
It isnt it's a lot of things add up. Remember, She was inspired by the raid and the theft of imperial payroll. I think it's trying to say we move forward with all our little contribution. it begins to snowball into something bigger.
the symbolism of the ceremonial band is so deep : when the funeral band starts to play its meant towards the Imperials; as if they are saying: " the death of the Empire is near. This is the start of its end. This is the funeral song for the Empire." The clocktower guy rings the last hour of the Empire. You can feel it deep inside, people had enough, the Revolution has started.
Even a cold person like Luthian is moved by the speech. 3:20 You could see the slight smile in his face in the mention of the empire. Best part this, perfect music chills 🥶
For me on what make Andor the best of the recent Sra Wars series is that it portrays the Empire as it should be in a very realistic tone. The cost of being a subordinate planet under the jackboots, and the terror it brings to the normal person. This is what I always envisioned the Star Wars Universe to look like.
I cried on this scene, you can feel the fire burning in everyone's heart, and how Maarva's speech ignited the spark they neeed, FIGHT THE EMPIRE. ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 Drove me to tears.❤❤❤❤
Never has a Star Wars show so thoroughly explored Totalitarianism in power, along with its peculiar ideology of total domination from within through the mass atomization of the whole people, brought about from isolation and erosion of the public trust, and the total elimination of spontaneity in peoples lives. These are the preconditions for turning the actions of every person into reactions so one person cannot be defined separately from all the others. Under such conditions resistance becomes near impossible as not 1o people can come together and form bonds of trust as any semblance of common humanity becomes harder and harder to identify as thinking is replaced by conditioned responses. Totalitarian power, in the views of it’s leaders, is basically created through the organization of isolated people who are atomized into individual units whose coming together, essentially, draw power similarly to how friction or galvanic currents generates electricity. As a result these movements tend to openly defy rationality by adhering to an endless and structureless momentum that must always remain in motion. The only way to enforce this kind of continuous mass momentum is through constant terror and constant purges. Violence, intolerance, and hatred is not based in any constitutionalized set of principles, it’s simply what allows an atomized group of people to remain organized and provides the momentum so necessary for Totalitarian organizations to carry out their murdurous and dominating objectives for dominations sake alone. And never has a show more embodied that the best defense against such an ideology is spontaneity and love, because the only thing that holds it together is hate and terror.
Sorry I'm late with this but videos are going crazy over this masterpiece of a speech "My name is Maarva Carassi Andor. I'm honored to stand before you. I'm honored to be a Daughter of Ferrix and honored to be worthy of the stone. Strange... I feel as if I can see it. I was six, I think, first time I touched a funerary stone. Heard our music, felt our history, holding my sister's hand as we walked all the way from Fountain Square. Where you stand now, I've been more times than I can remember. I always wanted to be lifted. I was always eager, always waiting to be inspired. I remember every time it happened, every time the dead lifted me... with their truth. And now I'm dead. And I yearn to lift you. Not because I want to shine or even be remembered. It's because I want you to go on. I want Ferrix to continue. In my waning hours, that's what comforts me most. But I fear for you. We've been sleeping. I've been sleeping. We've had each other, and Ferrix, our work, our days. We had each other, and they left us alone. We kept the trade lanes open, and they left us alone. We took their money, and ignored them, we kept their engines churning, and the moment they pulled away, we forgot them. Because we had each other. We had Ferrix. But we were sleeping. I've been sleeping. And I've been turning away from the truth I wanted not to face. There is a wound that won't heal at the center of the galaxy. There is a darkness reaching like rust into everything around us. We let it grow, and now it's here. It's here, and it's not visiting anymore. It wants to stay. The Empire is a disease that thrives in darkness, it is never more alive than when we sleep. It's easy for the dead to tell you to fight, and maybe it's true, maybe fighting is useless. Perhaps it's too late. But I'll tell you this... If I could do it again, I would wake up early and be fighting these bastards...from the start! *Fight the Empire!* " Maarva just put the whole idea of the show in the best #1 speech ever seen in Star Wars
What can't be shown in this is what elevates this moment beyond a good speech... It's the immersion that sets it up the whole show silently running in background coming to a head. The empire so eager to squash the little people, the empire looking down at citizens, the empire casually joking about restricting the "primitives" etc etc what that does as you watch is elevate this speech because as the viewer along for only part of the journey we feel the plight and powerlessness of these everyday people, grinded down and abused by a system that cares nothing for them... so when she posthumously gives this speech it lights the fire in our hearts and souls and takes the leash off all the pent up angry not just of ferrix as a whole but the audience ready to see the empire know fear. It's like V for Vendetta People should not live in fear of their governments, its the government that should fear the people's power. In this moment despite that fallout that comes the people of Ferrix say NO MORE!!!!
On top of everything else about this scene, I ADORE the music. It gets more epic as Maarva goes on, building up to the triumphant climax slowly with added instruments like subtle drums, horns, additional strings. What started as one beautiful but subtle tune builds up to a soaring orchestra full of hope and beauty and inspiration. One flame becomes an inferno. One person helps the Rebellion come together.
Brasso, screaming and wielding the funerary stone of Maarva Andor as a weapon and a beacon for the Rebellion, is everything. Man, I love this show. It's just so inspiring and well crafted.
This show is full of big and epic moments like this. I was cheering this show like if I was in the theater watching endgame. The best thing about this show is that it doesn’t try to buy you with light sabers, any known last name from the previous trilogies or even a baby yoda. This show was capable of brighting by itself showing you that the star wars universe have so much to bring to the franchise rather than Jedis vs siths🤦🏻♂️
Greatest moment of the rebellion. No space wizards. No light sabers. Just normal people standing up against an overwhelming force. Most revolts are brutally crushed, this one most likely will be too. But it is the spark that ignites the embers, that some day turn to flame and eventually burn down the fascists oppressive empire in an inferno.
This show is not just a great Star Wars show, it’s a great show period. The gut wrenching ness of rebellion, the sorrows of loss. It just got made more epic because it blends all these themes with our favorite Star Wars characters and worlds, it transformed something that already had lore. What shows have done that I recently memory? I can’t think of one.
Such a great speech. We're often shown the rebellion from the side of people who have been long committed to the cause, not people who slowly come to the realization of what's happening - Ferrix, what one might call a loyal or collaborator planet, gradually realizing the encroaching threat wanting a little more every time it stopped by was done encroaching, and it was THERE to stay and tell them what to do. No one has ever appreciated when empire comes to their land, telling them what to do, and I think we can all appreciate in a way what Ferrix and Maarva were feeling.
Andor's one of my favourite bits of media (full stop not just Star Wars) because it shows the moral grey area of rebellion and oppression without totally bottling it and painting both sides as being as bad as each other. I spent the first three episodes waiting for the other shoe to drop and it never did. Andor knows where the blame lies, and where all the violence ultimately comes from. It demonstrates this in each of the three main story arcs, but it's best shown throughout in the character of Luthen. He is a bad dude, there's no question about that, but instead of focussing on this as if to say "the ends don't justify the means" in the cowardly, lazy and edgy way that so much other media does, it saves its ire for the real cause - these BASTARDS who are destroying the world(s) for their own selfish, and often totally banal, personal gain, and who can't help themselves but to push ordinary people too far. Luthen isn't judged by the show, because it respects its viewer enough to know that we don't judge him half as harshly as he judges himself, and that we can see exactly what has pushed him to the point he is at. It's all the more impactful because the villains are so terrifyingly mundane. I've met all of them at one point or another in my life. It may seem a bit silly to praise a Star Wars show for being anti-Empire and pro-Rebellion, but I've never known a Star Wars property to make the Empire feel so real and relevant. It's peopled by dull, dreary men and women who live in dark places and work in endless cubicled hell-holes and yet will die to defend them, and will hate other people who see their miserable lives for what they truly are; and it's driven by rapacious commerce, exploitation and the apathy of the masses. Andor never shies away from this reality, and it only glorifies resistance to it. It's pretty politically subversive and I can't believe Disney made it.
This scene and the fight that occurs afterwards is probably my favourite piece of media I've ever seen on a streaming platform, maybe even on TV. It's very powerful and carefully curated. You can tell this show had a lot of care and took pride in being something different from other Star Wars content.
@@danieloconnell2757 i cant say it was my favourite show in the world, not even of the year but it was definitely sensational and I cannot wait for series 2 I hate that we have to wait so long. Also these channels and RUclips just in general do not give Genevieve O’Reilly the praise she deserves. She owned that series with her facial expressions alone
Maarva inciting a riot in her own funeral is such a bad ass send off. You'd think she was just another typical "John Wick's puppy" type of character but it was so done right you'd forget it's a Hollywood cliche.
I think there is a parallel to Luthen's powerful monologue. I like the parallel to Jyn and Galen's moment in Rogue. I suspect that Luthen believes in Andor and sees where he comes from and who raised him... Luthen sees himself in Andor. We are better for it.
*I agree. Luthen gained some real insight into Cassian because he was there at the funeral & saw the people of Ferrix & heard Maarva's speech. This I Belo is what will cause him to trust Cassian moving forward in the rebellion.*
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, a woman name Maarva Carassi Andor gave a clarion call to any who would listen, to maintain vigilance and to fight against the forces of oppression. May her words be emblazoned into the minds and actions of those brave enough to wake up and rebel against those who would keep you asleep, subordinate, and subservient. Fight the empires in your life.
This show is hands down the best Star Wars live action show, even better than some of the movies. This scene, this speech, the music, everything was so beautiful and moving. I can't possibly understand how some people don't think this show is Star Wars, this is peak Star Wars.
I remember i almost stopped watching this show cuz i thought it was boring, then the prison episodes drew me back in, i was glad i kept watching and saw this
This might be my favorite moment in the whole series, which is a high bar to clear because the show itself is just so good, the whole show builds to this moment, and it is so powerful because of all we’ve been through with the characters to get here, I felt like a member of the crowd in Ferrix, personally being empowered to wake up and fight back
The one thing I would like to see more in Star Wars is how the average person is handling the fall of the Jedi. Maarva, Luthen, and many others were alive when the Jedi were around. I would've loved for in these speeches, or other people talking about what it was like to see "the guardians of peace and justice in the Republic" in action... and their absence, conversely. For example, if Maarva said, "You may not remember, but there was a time where seeing a lightsaber meant something to us! The Empire wants you to forget, but I remember! But know this, the Jedi are gone..."
Pro Tip ladies and gents when facing a police shield wall they cross support each other. So the best method is group cooperation on single points then counters on areas of the shield wall that have shifted to provide support to the current area of attack. Once a breach is made it important to go sideways rather than straight back.
You understand you are in front of a masterpiece when after seeing it you want to see it again and again. It's good to see that Star Wars still creeps me out. Thanks Andor
Cassian’s father literally explains how planned obsolescence works in a flash back. A fundamental component of how modern capitalism incentivizes profit over long term functionality.
It’s gonna be deliciously ironic when a kid who was radicalised by this show starts an actual revolution that eventually results in some… consequences shall we say? for many of the big wigs at the Disney corporation
To be fair the rebels threw a bomb at them when they were only trying to prevent the protest from overrunning the garrison. Would you throw a bomb at a U.S. tank? And I'm using the U.S. as an example beacuse everyone calls them imperialist.
@@Demicleas No doubt the Ferrix citizens caused this tragedy. I'm surprised the Empire didn't start shooting sooner.... They showed remarkable self control until being given the go-ahead. That boy inflamed the situation from 10% to 1000% in like one second. The result is hundreds of dead Ferrex citizens and dozens of dead Imperials. Nobody won that battle... It was a disaster.
This show is the reason why the sequels hurt so much. All the pain and suffering endured, all the sacrifices made to defeat the empire. And they dare to tell me in episode 7 that it was all worthless by undoing all the Rebellion has accomplished within one hour of the movie because somehow Palpatine returned with an even better death star???
This might be the most pivotal scene in all of Star Wars canon. It's my favorite scene for sure. In 1991, when Fiona Shaw played the comedic role of Elspeth Lomax in 'Three Men and a Little Lady', I never imagined that she would ever play such a powerful role (Maarva Andor) in the Star Wars Universe. Her posthumous speech was epic awesome! I think there should be a ship in the New Republic named after Maarva Andor.

@@williamstone7514 Star wars makes me tear up a lot but this was a harder hitting moment, the speech is so brilliant
@@williamstone7514 William I teared up and screamed and had goosebumps multiple times during this amazing series!!! BRAVO TONY GILROY!!
Brasso so soft when he's relaying Maarva's message to Cassian, but also Brasso FERAL whacking imperials with Maarva's remains.
Где-то в Force улыбается одна Маарва
*RIGHT!!!! I love his character & how he was moving & doing things here in the finale. I can't to see more of him in season 2.*
Maarva got to fight them after all
Loved that character - especially when he went full wookie on them
I think it perfectly illustrates what happens when tyranny pushes people to the edge, to a point where even the kindest souls must fight and kill
The scene where Cassian is trying to talk Marva into leaving and she refuses is an absolute MASTER CLASS in acting by Fiona Shaw....specifically when Cassian says, "I won't have peace, I'll be worried about you all the time..." and she replies, "that's just love..." wooooo chills
Goddamn, just reading the lines makes me emotional. This show is on a whole another level.
@@Deletaste As someone that lives under the constant question of whether to immigrate or not, those lines encapsulate why I'm convinced no option will fully make me happy.
Luthen feeling inspired again…no doubt he has had 2nd thoughts about what he has started and whether the empire can fall…the empire is a disease that thrives in darkness it is never more alive than when we sleep..What a show
*I believe that what Maarva said in that speech & what he saw from the people of Ferrix has had a positive affect him moving forward with the rebellion.*
I felt like he only thought he could take it in a darker direction. Fight the Empire with their own tactics. But Maarva showed him another way: hope.
And in the end it was all for nothing as the galaxy descends into Anarchy and darkness with everyone only looking out for themselves. I wonder if the empire was right considering what happened to the galaxy after dosent seem to be much better off.
The way Brasso looks up that final time after Wilmon looks at him. The rage in both their faces. It gave me chills
After having watched this scene multiple times, I fully agree. The subtle acting done by even the minor characters in this series was phenomenal
I love how the camera pans to the son in tears after we’ve been sleeping. Man that broke my heart.
I saw no rage, just faces. Weird presentation of emotion is one of the biggest flaws of the series.
Luthen when he said in his monologue before "I share my dreams with ghosts" resonated so hard seeing his reaction at 3:20. Maarva's speech gave further proof to him that he is indeed sharing his dreams with ghosts.
This is an amazing catch my brother 👏🏻
I love that they don’t show Maarva dying, but rather show this message from her. That her words and her spirit for her fellow Ferrix folks are what she is. Not merely a dead body, but a woman whose final words gave hope and pride to a city of people who were wronged.
That Maarva was more important than showing her death.
Damn straight.
4:08 - Dude. When he tossed B2EMO over, I was ready to run through my television.
Kino, Nemik, Luthen, and Maarva. 4 monologues in one season of one show that rival or surpass all other SW franchise media. So much emotion and power from such incredible writers and actors. The score only elevates the experience and it really does make the fire in my soul burn bright hearing them.
Dont forget about mon mothmas several either!
nYaWWW, iT dOeSn't hAvE JeDi, iT's nOt reAllY STAR WARS! 🤭
Tony Gilroy seems to have such an obsession with great character monologues. This might show that he's just such a great writer.
@@liamphibia "Monolog is a perfectly valid dramatic expression. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise!"
@@liamphibia
Usually shows with so many speeches and monologues get boring. But Andor not only keeps you listening, but it makes you want more.
Nemik and Maarva have such great speeches alone.
I teared up a little at the speech. Cause she's right. Oppression grows in the dark, while we remain ignorant and sleep. We won't know it's taken over us until it's too late, unless we wake up.
I felt like it was somehow both a parallel and a contrast to Luthen's monologue- The two sides of the rebellion, the sacrifice, and the hope. Only together can the rebellion truly succeed, and I think even Luthen realized that when he was hearing Maarva's message.
Me too, I really took that personally
WE just got the Twitter files and see what they were doing in the dark. People need to care more. Canada and Oregon just past legislation to take away our means to stop them. They can't hide the truth, but postponing it's airing prevents us from rising up.
This is why I’m fucking against the Empire. I always have been and always will be.
Words that ring true in our reality as well.
Perfect description of math-class.
The speech is written so brilliantly as it takes it time and slowly builds to one of the most inspirational and heartfelt I have ever heard as she delivers that final passionately delivered line “Fight the empire!!!” just before the empire silences her. Some truly great writing !
She actually says Fuck the empire, but they changed it as they felt swearing doesn't fit the scene. I'm glad they did though.
What I particularly love is that they proved her right, if they had kept back instead of trying to silence her the riot wouldnt have started, but they did. In that moment they demonstrated the truth of her words and the need to fight. The tighter the hand of the oppressor grips the more slips through his fingers which wonderfully links to Leia too.
@@castlesandcuriositiesI’ve seen my fair share of riots before, things would have come to blows with a few dirty looks
The other thing I love about Maarva’s speech is how labored her breathing is- it’s almost like this speech was given as her last dying breath. She spent the final moments of her life sparking the rebellion!
There is so much ferocity behind that young man's facial expressions. Well done!
Anyone else come here on a daily basis for motivation & a good cry or is that just me?
Every couple of days I listen to this or Luthen's speech for both of those same reasons 👍👍
tissue?
Here!
The actor who plays Brasso deserves so much credit for his performances throughout this season. Joplin Sibtain take a bow!
So many great performances in this show.
Andor is hands down the greatest Star Wars television series ever!!! That speech was truly inspiring and the real life corporatist empire of the world better wake up, because a real life Marva could inspire the revolt we need today...
Took the words right out of my skull...
I honestly love andor more than any of the movies as well. (I binged all of the movies so ig im not as attached to them as everyone else might be)
*This show has been very great since episode one! I can't wait for season two.*
Organizing your workplace is the first step.
bloody stupid comment
The crowd doesn't say a word for the entirety of her speech, but those actors NAILED it holy shit.
This series has EPIC speeches.. I want an Andor box set to go with my Rogue One disc..
*I hope that you'll be able to get that box set for your collection.*
Maarva posthumously inciting a riot against fascists is one of the most in-character moments on this show😊
“If I could do it again, I’d wake up early and be fighting these bastards from the start.”
Some serious heat. Maarva is the mother of the Rebellion.
out of all the fantastic moments in this show, and there are many, this scene is probably my favorite. maarva's brick being used to beat the crap out of imperials literally made me cheer.
When Brasso looks at Wilmon and you see the tear running down Wilmons cheek... right when Maarva is saying that it's easy for the dead to tell us to fight. Especially considering what happened to his father. Just amazing. it's such a powerful moment.
There are so many layers to this speech within the show and a reflection on our own world and experiences. Such an amazing moment that I will never forget.
3:50 one of my favourite shots in all of Star Wars. High angle of Brasso looking up to Maarva, and looking up towards hope: the hope for Ferrix. His expression timed with the musical cue is bone-chilling and awesome, and I don't think there are many other Star Wars scenes that produce this type of pure awe for me. Masterful ❤️
I’ve rewatched this scene 5 times and every time I tear up, watching Luthen realize that the rebellion has is in fact fought everywhere like Nemik said seeing the woman who raised the lad he came to kill is in fact the rebel leader he wished to be
Personally, this is the best, most weighty, most memorable, and most emotional scene in Star Wars. Ever. Period.
And it’s not some ridiculous battle with Jedi, mandalorians etc. it’s just a speech. Shows that all it takes is great writers
Unlike others, this series will age so well. Pure art.
So many amazing acting scenes from this show... definitely some of the best Star Wars content in a long time.
*Yes indeed! This first season was so great! Can't wait for season two!*
The build up to Maarva's speech, the score building during the speech, the faces of the ferrix citizens, the imperial officer becoming more agitated, the score building building growing, the tears down the face of the boy as he makes his personal decision.....wow....just.....wow.......for me the most powerful moment in all of Star Wars.....BRAVO TONY GILROY!!!!
There is so much deep, deep lore and meaning woven into this speech. In just a few minutes we learn about decades of this woman's life, the culture she grew up in, the hopes and fears of an entire generation of people. Incredible.
So I didn’t except her funeral speech to be the birthplace of the rebellion but I love it. It’s such a great speech and the way people react is so cool. Ferrix is the hearth of the rebellion and maarva is the first rebel. Love this.
@@SwobyJbirthplace of rebellion actions against the empire then👀
It isnt it's a lot of things add up. Remember, She was inspired by the raid and the theft of imperial payroll. I think it's trying to say we move forward with all our little contribution. it begins to snowball into something bigger.
as nemik said, it's happening all over the galaxy, not just on ferrix
Luthen being there was amazing, he understood that rebellion is inevitable and that Andor isn't the enemy...
it was crucial Luthen being there and listen that speech, it was an inflection point and a reminder
the symbolism of the ceremonial band is so deep :
when the funeral band starts to play its meant towards the Imperials; as if they are saying:
" the death of the Empire is near. This is the start of its end. This is the funeral song for the Empire."
The clocktower guy rings the last hour of the Empire. You can feel it deep inside, people had enough, the Revolution has started.
Even a cold person like Luthian is moved by the speech. 3:20 You could see the slight smile in his face in the mention of the empire. Best part this, perfect music chills 🥶
Maarva, as a brick, had a more triumphant character arc climax than any character in recent star wars. Damn, that retribution was glorious!
As a person that wants to love Star Wars but can barely stomach the movies …Andor finally is something to be excited about.
For me on what make Andor the best of the recent Sra Wars series is that it portrays the Empire as it should be in a very realistic tone. The cost of being a subordinate planet under the jackboots, and the terror it brings to the normal person. This is what I always envisioned the Star Wars Universe to look like.
The planet probably got conquered by slavers when the empire fell and the republic abandoned them, there rebellion was ultimately pointless.
This speech really resonates with what’s going on in society today
I cried on this scene, you can feel the fire burning in everyone's heart, and how Maarva's speech ignited the spark they neeed, FIGHT THE EMPIRE. ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 Drove me to tears.❤❤❤❤
Finally a Star Wars that cannot hide behind, it is for kids and stupid jokes. This was a perfect series. Perfect.
This speech made me want to run through a brick wall to defeat the Empire. Definitely up there with the all time great speeches in films and shows.
"FIGHT THE EMPIRE!" is the new best Star Wars line. Prove me wrong.
its actually "FUCK THE EMPIRE!"
3:11 i love that it cuts to show the imperial riot police, just in case you somehow didn't get what she's talking about
Never has a Star Wars show so thoroughly explored Totalitarianism in power, along with its peculiar ideology of total domination from within through the mass atomization of the whole people, brought about from isolation and erosion of the public trust, and the total elimination of spontaneity in peoples lives. These are the preconditions for turning the actions of every person into reactions so one person cannot be defined separately from all the others. Under such conditions resistance becomes near impossible as not 1o people can come together and form bonds of trust as any semblance of common humanity becomes harder and harder to identify as thinking is replaced by conditioned responses. Totalitarian power, in the views of it’s leaders, is basically created through the organization of isolated people who are atomized into individual units whose coming together, essentially, draw power similarly to how friction or galvanic currents generates electricity. As a result these movements tend to openly defy rationality by adhering to an endless and structureless momentum that must always remain in motion. The only way to enforce this kind of continuous mass momentum is through constant terror and constant purges. Violence, intolerance, and hatred is not based in any constitutionalized set of principles, it’s simply what allows an atomized group of people to remain organized and provides the momentum so necessary for Totalitarian organizations to carry out their murdurous and dominating objectives for dominations sake alone. And never has a show more embodied that the best defense against such an ideology is spontaneity and love, because the only thing that holds it together is hate and terror.
Woah.
Sorry I'm late with this but videos are going crazy over this masterpiece of a speech
"My name is Maarva Carassi Andor. I'm honored to stand before you. I'm honored to be a Daughter of Ferrix and honored to be worthy of the stone. Strange... I feel as if I can see it.
I was six, I think, first time I touched a funerary stone. Heard our music, felt our history, holding my sister's hand as we walked all the way from Fountain Square. Where you stand now, I've been more times than I can remember. I always wanted to be lifted. I was always eager, always waiting to be inspired. I remember every time it happened, every time the dead lifted me... with their truth.
And now I'm dead. And I yearn to lift you. Not because I want to shine or even be remembered. It's because I want you to go on. I want Ferrix to continue. In my waning hours, that's what comforts me most.
But I fear for you. We've been sleeping. I've been sleeping. We've had each other, and Ferrix, our work, our days. We had each other, and they left us alone. We kept the trade lanes open, and they left us alone. We took their money, and ignored them, we kept their engines churning, and the moment they pulled away, we forgot them. Because we had each other. We had Ferrix. But we were sleeping. I've been sleeping. And I've been turning away from the truth I wanted not to face.
There is a wound that won't heal at the center of the galaxy. There is a darkness reaching like rust into everything around us.
We let it grow, and now it's here. It's here, and it's not visiting anymore. It wants to stay. The Empire is a disease that thrives in darkness, it is never more alive than when we sleep. It's easy for the dead to tell you to fight, and maybe it's true, maybe fighting is useless. Perhaps it's too late. But I'll tell you this... If I could do it again, I would wake up early and be fighting these bastards...from the start!
*Fight the Empire!* "
Maarva just put the whole idea of the show in the best #1 speech ever seen in Star Wars
3:09-3:24 the best lines followed by Stellan's perfect subtle response. My favorite moment of the episode by far.
'And they left us alone' really calls back to 'first they came for'.
What can't be shown in this is what elevates this moment beyond a good speech...
It's the immersion that sets it up the whole show silently running in background coming to a head.
The empire so eager to squash the little people, the empire looking down at citizens, the empire casually joking about restricting the "primitives" etc etc what that does as you watch is elevate this speech because as the viewer along for only part of the journey we feel the plight and powerlessness of these everyday people, grinded down and abused by a system that cares nothing for them... so when she posthumously gives this speech it lights the fire in our hearts and souls and takes the leash off all the pent up angry not just of ferrix as a whole but the audience ready to see the empire know fear.
It's like V for Vendetta
People should not live in fear of their governments, its the government that should fear the people's power.
In this moment despite that fallout that comes the people of Ferrix say NO MORE!!!!
On top of everything else about this scene, I ADORE the music.
It gets more epic as Maarva goes on, building up to the triumphant climax slowly with added instruments like subtle drums, horns, additional strings.
What started as one beautiful but subtle tune builds up to a soaring orchestra full of hope and beauty and inspiration.
One flame becomes an inferno.
One person helps the Rebellion come together.
Brasso, screaming and wielding the funerary stone of Maarva Andor as a weapon and a beacon for the Rebellion, is everything.
Man, I love this show. It's just so inspiring and well crafted.
This show is full of big and epic moments like this. I was cheering this show like if I was in the theater watching endgame.
The best thing about this show is that it doesn’t try to buy you with light sabers, any known last name from the previous trilogies or even a baby yoda. This show was capable of brighting by itself showing you that the star wars universe have so much to bring to the franchise rather than Jedis vs siths🤦🏻♂️
Greatest moment of the rebellion. No space wizards. No light sabers. Just normal people standing up against an overwhelming force. Most revolts are brutally crushed, this one most likely will be too. But it is the spark that ignites the embers, that some day turn to flame and eventually burn down the fascists oppressive empire in an inferno.
This show is not just a great Star Wars show, it’s a great show period. The gut wrenching ness of rebellion, the sorrows of loss. It just got made more epic because it blends all these themes with our favorite Star Wars characters and worlds, it transformed something that already had lore. What shows have done that I recently memory? I can’t think of one.
Such a great speech. We're often shown the rebellion from the side of people who have been long committed to the cause, not people who slowly come to the realization of what's happening - Ferrix, what one might call a loyal or collaborator planet, gradually realizing the encroaching threat wanting a little more every time it stopped by was done encroaching, and it was THERE to stay and tell them what to do. No one has ever appreciated when empire comes to their land, telling them what to do, and I think we can all appreciate in a way what Ferrix and Maarva were feeling.
I love that Maarthra got the first strike against the empire symbolically because her funeral stone was used to strike one of the empires goons.
Who knew Petunia Dursley would give one of the best speeches in Star Wars history
It's amazing how she blends as Petunia but Fiona Shaw can do range.
Andor's one of my favourite bits of media (full stop not just Star Wars) because it shows the moral grey area of rebellion and oppression without totally bottling it and painting both sides as being as bad as each other. I spent the first three episodes waiting for the other shoe to drop and it never did. Andor knows where the blame lies, and where all the violence ultimately comes from. It demonstrates this in each of the three main story arcs, but it's best shown throughout in the character of Luthen. He is a bad dude, there's no question about that, but instead of focussing on this as if to say "the ends don't justify the means" in the cowardly, lazy and edgy way that so much other media does, it saves its ire for the real cause - these BASTARDS who are destroying the world(s) for their own selfish, and often totally banal, personal gain, and who can't help themselves but to push ordinary people too far.
Luthen isn't judged by the show, because it respects its viewer enough to know that we don't judge him half as harshly as he judges himself, and that we can see exactly what has pushed him to the point he is at. It's all the more impactful because the villains are so terrifyingly mundane. I've met all of them at one point or another in my life.
It may seem a bit silly to praise a Star Wars show for being anti-Empire and pro-Rebellion, but I've never known a Star Wars property to make the Empire feel so real and relevant. It's peopled by dull, dreary men and women who live in dark places and work in endless cubicled hell-holes and yet will die to defend them, and will hate other people who see their miserable lives for what they truly are; and it's driven by rapacious commerce, exploitation and the apathy of the masses. Andor never shies away from this reality, and it only glorifies resistance to it. It's pretty politically subversive and I can't believe Disney made it.
This scene and the fight that occurs afterwards is probably my favourite piece of media I've ever seen on a streaming platform, maybe even on TV. It's very powerful and carefully curated. You can tell this show had a lot of care and took pride in being something different from other Star Wars content.
I can’t get over how brutal it was when Dedra was getting whacked around and dragged through the dirt. I was like jeeeeez
@@obiwankenobi687 it reminded me a lot of the French Revolution tbh. It definitely was pretty jarring for a Star Wars show.
@@danieloconnell2757 i cant say it was my favourite show in the world, not even of the year but it was definitely sensational and I cannot wait for series 2 I hate that we have to wait so long.
Also these channels and RUclips just in general do not give Genevieve O’Reilly the praise she deserves. She owned that series with her facial expressions alone
@@obiwankenobi687 Fun fact, in my home city there is an art gallery with an "illustrious" painting of her lmao.
Maarva inciting a riot in her own funeral is such a bad ass send off. You'd think she was just another typical "John Wick's puppy" type of character but it was so done right you'd forget it's a Hollywood cliche.
I think there is a parallel to Luthen's powerful monologue. I like the parallel to Jyn and Galen's moment in Rogue.
I suspect that Luthen believes in Andor and sees where he comes from and who raised him... Luthen sees himself in Andor. We are better for it.
*I agree. Luthen gained some real insight into Cassian because he was there at the funeral & saw the people of Ferrix & heard Maarva's speech. This I Belo is what will cause him to trust Cassian moving forward in the rebellion.*
I think Nurchi quietly knowing he fucked up is actually one of the best little shots in this scene
I want Nurchi to have a better character arc. I hope he rises to the occasion.
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, a woman name Maarva Carassi Andor gave a clarion call to any who would listen, to maintain vigilance and to fight against the forces of oppression. May her words be emblazoned into the minds and actions of those brave enough to wake up and rebel against those who would keep you asleep, subordinate, and subservient. Fight the empires in your life.
The beautiful thing is you could come from almost every political spectrum and this speech still is for you.
This show is hands down the best Star Wars live action show, even better than some of the movies. This scene, this speech, the music, everything was so beautiful and moving. I can't possibly understand how some people don't think this show is Star Wars, this is peak Star Wars.
Because they are used to goofy disney "Starwars". This show is old school starWARS and its a masterpiece.
I remember i almost stopped watching this show cuz i thought it was boring, then the prison episodes drew me back in, i was glad i kept watching and saw this
Fun fact : They also shot this monologue with her saying "f**k the empire", but didn't use it.
This might be my favorite moment in the whole series, which is a high bar to clear because the show itself is just so good, the whole show builds to this moment, and it is so powerful because of all we’ve been through with the characters to get here, I felt like a member of the crowd in Ferrix, personally being empowered to wake up and fight back
When Brasso uses the brick made of Maarva to bash a soldier over the head Maarva was smiling from the afterlife
Me after that : I feel like i could take on the whole Empire myself
Make ten men feel like a hundred
This series makes me wish Star Wars was just a bunch of speeches!
Fiona Shaw is an absolute legend. What a performance. 👍🇮🇪
so much emotion in Luthen's face, he finally gets to hear someone articulate and vindicate what he is sacrificing his life for.
3:55 the delivery of that line... ¨these... BASTARDS!¨
Someone give me a blaster NOW!
2:45 such good acting. This scene and the whole episode is a masterpiece.
Yup. You could see that his grief is fresh since he is mourning his father in addition to Marva.
The one thing I would like to see more in Star Wars is how the average person is handling the fall of the Jedi. Maarva, Luthen, and many others were alive when the Jedi were around. I would've loved for in these speeches, or other people talking about what it was like to see "the guardians of peace and justice in the Republic" in action... and their absence, conversely. For example, if Maarva said, "You may not remember, but there was a time where seeing a lightsaber meant something to us! The Empire wants you to forget, but I remember! But know this, the Jedi are gone..."
for working class planet like Ferrix, Jedis are out-of-touch aristocrats just like most politicians
Watching this every day now. I am letting Maarva lift me up. ❤️
I can’t believe I overlooked this show 🤦🏻♂️ I gotta start watching it !
Sim assista
Pro Tip ladies and gents when facing a police shield wall they cross support each other. So the best method is group cooperation on single points then counters on areas of the shield wall that have shifted to provide support to the current area of attack. Once a breach is made it important to go sideways rather than straight back.
Powerful speech.. the only way for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.. but sleep.
This is a better depiction of how the rebellion came to be than what was shown to us in Star Wars Rebels.
Thank you. Rebels is just a kiddie adventure that really turns The Empire into a joke that you can't take seriously.
Bah, they're both good. Kiddie adventure or no.
@@gilian2587 This, I hate that some feel the need to tear down some Star Wars to uplift other Star Wars.
@@sebastienvondoom8615 this is the way.

The ferrix riots would definitely be a moment in history to be remembered for.
You understand you are in front of a masterpiece when after seeing it you want to see it again and again.
It's good to see that Star Wars still creeps me out.
Thanks Andor
Maarva posthumously laying the Smackdown on the Imperials via Brasso is the best bit.
Wow! Andor makes us to think about whats happening around in real life.
*Indeed.*
Cassian’s father literally explains how planned obsolescence works in a flash back. A fundamental component of how modern capitalism incentivizes profit over long term functionality.
It’s time to wake up early, and fight these bastards. We’re all being suppressed everyday. We have been sleeping.
It’s gonna be deliciously ironic when a kid who was radicalised by this show starts an actual revolution that eventually results in some… consequences shall we say? for many of the big wigs at the Disney corporation
Seeing Stormtroopers gun down civilians with frightening accuracy and without mercy is... What I always expected. Now we have it lol
To be fair the rebels threw a bomb at them when they were only trying to prevent the protest from overrunning the garrison. Would you throw a bomb at a U.S. tank? And I'm using the U.S. as an example beacuse everyone calls them imperialist.
@@Demicleas No doubt the Ferrix citizens caused this tragedy. I'm surprised the Empire didn't start shooting sooner.... They showed remarkable self control until being given the go-ahead. That boy inflamed the situation from 10% to 1000% in like one second. The result is hundreds of dead Ferrex citizens and dozens of dead Imperials. Nobody won that battle... It was a disaster.
This show is the reason why the sequels hurt so much. All the pain and suffering endured, all the sacrifices made to defeat the empire. And they dare to tell me in episode 7 that it was all worthless by undoing all the Rebellion has accomplished within one hour of the movie because somehow Palpatine returned with an even better death star???
To me this is the most powerfull moment in the entire Star Wars storyline so far.
Such a beautiful, powerful and painful speech!! I had tears coming out.
the music ... chills every time
Andor is Star Wars at its finest, everything from the acting, the cinematography and the music, is absolutely top tier.
This might be the most pivotal scene in all of Star Wars canon. It's my favorite scene for sure. In 1991, when Fiona Shaw played the comedic role of Elspeth Lomax in 'Three Men and a Little Lady', I never imagined that she would ever play such a powerful role (Maarva Andor) in the Star Wars Universe. Her posthumous speech was epic awesome! I think there should be a ship in the New Republic named after Maarva Andor.
They call it American dreams because we have to sleep to see it
