This one is better because Andor is actually a watchable show!
Please release this full remix of the Andor theme it’s soooo good
do mando next!!!
maybe abi-wan kanobe can be done in 60s version
nah man im good.
Those three hammer hits of the bell tower synching up with the music was perfection.
Though I wonder if that is something that would have been done in the 70s?
@@DanielRMueller Oh without a *doubt!*
I was practically *_dying of laughter_* when I first heard the hammer hits in this track. Not because I thought it was stupid or anything like that but because my ASD brain found it _hysterically_ hilarious!
I cheered when they struck in time🎉
Came here to say the same. The whole thing was genius, but I was like "eeeYEEHHEHESSSSS!” for that part
Loved the classic Synths! Reliving the 70s vibe.. thanks…
Skaarsgard laughing and then showing up dead serious is perfectly on point
The Duality of Man...
Look at his range!
"I was acting"
Ccool
That was right out of the A-Team
As far as I’m concerned, this is the actual intro for the show now.
I agree, we need a fan edit to splice it in before each episode.
So we replacing 4K stunning image with vintage retro animations? Lol
@condorjq26 I mean, the show's actual intro is pretty basic. No one's replacing the actual content with retro filters, it's just fun to think of this fun, hammy 70s style intro to a show based on a film *from* the 70s lol.
Agreed
Weirdly, I prefer the original, but that is solely for a specific reason. Look up something like "all Andor themes together" and you'll see what I mean.
0:26 Adria Arjona lifting her welding helmet then going immediately to freeze frame is deliciously spot on '70's style.
This dude hit the nail on the head with this one.
Yeah the running then that shot is so perfect
If someone made a sci fi show that had this campy tounge-in-cheek aesthetic all the way through, I think it would be a hit. Something that rode the line between being a serious show and parody, kinda like The Orville but paying homage to the 70s instead of the 90s.
The Bryar pistol shot was also perfect.
That was so good.
I love how everything about Andor is so authentic to the original trilogy aesthetic that this doesn't even look weird or out-of-place as a retro TV intro
Yea, it was really jarring to me when something that could only be shot with modern techniques (i.e. the CGI ship shot at the end) was included.
except for that fucking AKM
Yes Andor feels like it's the most star wars had felt since the original trilligoy and I feel like making star wars into series just works so much better then movies as even obi Wan manged to work as a series better then a movie could.
@@thewewguy8t88 I feel like this and Mandalorian (especially early Mando) are like two different but equally authentic halves of Star Wars. Mandalorian is the Western, Flash Gordon, Kurosawa, Old Sci-Fi side, Andor is the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, World War II in Space, 70s retrofuture, Fascism vs Liberty side.
@@Frogkhan915 yeah and i think book of boba fett was just trying to be the sopranios in space lol.
"Before there was hope in the galaxy, there was Andor" - I don't why but I like that line so much xD
Because it cleverly references that you should watch this before New Hope and you know that watching :
Ep123 > Andor > Rogue > 456 > the end
Is a way to go 😅
@@tonylight2761
"The end"
Indeed.
@@tonylight2761Tales Of the Jedi, (aprox 38-35 BBY) 1 (32 BBY), 2, Clone Wars, 3 (ends 19 BBY), Bad Batch (starts mid-3, as the next seasons of Clone Wars) Solo (aprox 10 BBY), Andor (5 BBY), Rebels (4-0 BBY), Rogue One (19-0 BBY- in fact, the last 5 minutes before the credits overlap with 4), 4 (0 marker is the battle at the end), 5, 6, Ewok Adventure movies, Boba Fett (spoiler: it starts mid-6, but then jumps ahead to 9 ABY), The Mandalorian, Ahsoka (technically starts after Mandalorian, S2E5, as a live-action sequel series to Rebels), 7 (34 ABY), 8, 9 (by now a year passed since 7)
Because it fits the 70s intro theme. And it fits the Star Wars timeline.
This honestly makes me realize how much I miss title sequences with faces matched to the actors' names. It was cheesy but you really came to remember the actors. Long opening sequences were banished to make room for commercials but with streaming programs with no fixed time, why not bring them back?
Because binge watching.
Yeah, by about the fourth episode in a row they get a little repetitive.
@@AlexLecorn there´s usually a skip-button (on legal platforms anyway....)
They already have. Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon, Foundation, any of the Disney+ MCU series (although they put them at the end like the movies)... They're not gone, just scattered among many others.
@@bartlbalazs streaming shows still have title sequences with credits, they just don't have the cheesy actor intros and come with a skip button. Like 1899 (brand new Netflix series), the Haunting of Hill House, Man In the High Castle, etc. Etc.
The clips from the show fit the 70s look so well, it makes you realize how faithful the aesthetic of the show is to the OT.
Reminds me a'lot of Blake's 7.
only graphics do not fit, too modern =D
Everything looks old with that filter
Bell tower guy is the best part
I read that as Old Testament before realizing you meant Original Trilogy.
The fact that the bassline is both a Dr Who reference and a great baseline for the actual theme is incredible
ong
fr-first thing i noticed
Yes it is isn’t it
Similar, but it's not
@@AlfonsoSRT well duh, it’s a reference, and they don’t want to get the video taken down. It’s a parody of if.
I love the “based on THX” line, that’s so niche but absolutely true
I was literally coming here to say the same thing. Glad I checked the comments first. I'll just boost the person who beat me by 12 minutes.
Not only that, but since 1975 predates Star Wars, putting THX as the inspiration is perfect.
@@bwminich True. Part of the joke - even a running joke throughout Lucas's films - is that THX-1138 kicked it all off, so Star Wars, itself, could be said to be inspired by THX-1138.
What's the connection? Is the plot similar to THX-1138?
@@gnbmanis Roy the general tone and themes, especially in the prison
Showing the actor's names while the characters are doing completely random things is so accurate
Reminded me of Magnum PI
The 0:32 laughing Stellan Skarsgård into serious face name card was so on point. You guys nailed the ASTHETIC
9 months later I just saw this and was gonna make the same comment you did. This is great.
Bix flipping her mask up is literally perfect. Big 70's intro vibes.
Mr. T in A-Team
I love how Andor’s name flashes in the middle of the video, and that upward crescendo of musical theme while Kino Loy and Andor are running is wonderful.
perfect i know 😂
I felt a bit 1999ey at that point.
This trailer actually led me to start watching Andor! And for that alone I am thankful.
2 months later what do you think?
@@ggt47 can’t wait for the next season :)
@@genericreference6969 Ah, victory!
@@christopherstein2024 Fight the Empire!
haha
To state the obvious, whoever made this deserves an Oscar.
Agreed.
Emmy.
Nobel price
As a 50 year old key demographic. The Bix introduction is just the best thing about this by a mile. And it’s all just sublime
Right?!?! Even native in the episode I thought the “pop up” was a classic call back itself lol
I lost it when she lifts up her mask and it pauses. Overwhelming awe.
The strings crescendoing as they escape the prison with Serkis leading the charge was peak content. Thank you for this
Agreed, it's fantastic
@@gonkdroid8279 Wait… y-you can talk?
I thought you were a Gonk Droid…
As a major Andor fan I can't stop loving this. The slick 1970s version of the Andor theme, the corny character intros, the solid pic of Cassian in the intro/outro, the description about you can watch it on ABC on Thursday's and that line 'chosen by happenstance to become leader of a revolution' lol. I'd totally watch Andor with a 70s aesthetic since it feels closet to nailing that vibe of 1977 A New Hope.
The theme was more like 1983, but yeah.
Thursdays
Was it not “chosen by heaven’s dance” ?
Even the aspect ratio is on point!
I loved the show how it is… but it actually would’ve been a lot more fun if they gave it that late 70’s feel. Idk how many people would get it or like it. But it makes total sense lol
Everything about this is hilarious and so on point. The deep voice, the synthesizer sounds, the actor introductions, and so on.
So great. Love it. Wish they did make a version of this show back in the late 70s. That would have been boppin.
Imagine this going up against two of Glen Larson's two shows from that period (the original "Battlestar Galactica" and "Buck Rogers").
@@rwboa22 That would have sucked to go up against those shows in the prime time schedule. I think I would have still watched BSG and Buck Rogers, and hope I could record Andor on Betamax.
the only thing missing is a final shot with "the team" all together laughing and sharing a joke at the end .... possibly in a hot tub with chicks in bikinis
OMG, yes! U have absolutely right. 👍😁
The opening is befitting also of early 1980s sci-fi / action-adventure title cards: think "Knight Rider" (1982-1986), "Automan" (1 season, 1983-1984), "Airwolf" (1984-1987), "Street Hawk" (1985), "Stingray" (1985-1987), "The A-Team" (1983-1987), "The Highwayman" (1 season, 1987-1988), "Super Force" (1990-1992), and maybe a few others that I couldn't bother to research.
Half of those ran for only one season, so, were cancelled early.
Those disco violins at 1:07 are just perfect. Perfect!
What a gem. I was 7 years old in '75. This brings me right back to the TV era I grew up in and is so spot on!
Bro, did you watch Andor? SUCH KINO!!!
Battle Star Gallactica, A-Team. Chips. Air Wolf. Knight Rider. Street Hawk. Dukes of Hazard. Buck Rogers. Space 1999. The Land of the Giants.
I was 0, but in Austria(Europe) we got the cool stuff always 5 years later. Space 1999 and Patrick Duffy as the Merman were just jewels in my childhood memory 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
@@justinstuart8382 Remember the beautiful Jenny Agutter in Logan's Run? I had such a crush on her 🤩😂😁
@@yesyesyesyes1600 I don't think I ever saw that film. Was it with Harrison Ford?
I remember enjoying this show as a child back in the 1870's
I remember you offering to lend me the tape but we had Betamax at the time.... :- (
Now everything sucks! What happened to the good shows?
I had to travel 5 miles in deep snow every week just to watch it at the towne square cinema. Now that sound has been added to it, people don't appreciate how good they have it now.
i remember coming home to me ma after sweeping chimneys all day, only to use the last of our savings to pop down to the theatre to catch a showing of andor for 6 shillings per head as we stood on the ground. i think one time we got robbed but its ok me dads in prison now to pay our debts
Those eighteen seventies... What a century it was.
You know the show was awesome when you still get the chills despite the 1975 editing
PITCH. PERFECT. Every shot was golden. The music could not have been better. The VO was impeccable. I feel like the show SHOULD have come from this era now.
I agree but I think that shows just how much star wars in general was ahead of its time as some scenes in the orginal star wars look like they were made today.
In a way show very similar did come from that era -- Blake's 7.
Minor correction: the sounds come from more like 1982, rather than 1975. Other than that, I have to agree
@@janidani1 Ummm, actually, I know for a fact that these exact synths were hand-built in Amsterdam on the 18th of March, 1974, and Stellan Skarsgaard himself kissed every timber, so...
@@disky01 excuse me for being a smart ass, it just seemed so unnatural for 1974. Pioneers are ahead of the world
Now I low-key want to watch the entirety of Andor and Rogue One with a retro filter on it just so it better matches up with the original trilogy aesthetically lol
Right? It has that grainy dirty feel 1977 ANH has. I’d totally rewatch Andor/RO with a 1970s filter on it fits so well with the ships and retro futuristic interiors.
@@BarberJ95
Right? I kinda wonder if even the prequel trilogy would feel more aligned with ot if you did this, because it might actually mask the digital elements better and give everything a more cohesive look.
I don't know about you, but I had a friend whose parents were early adopters of blue-ray and big screen TVs, and I remember watching 90s and 80s movies obviously made to be displayed on CRT monitors and thinking it looked horrible because the effects and sets all ended up looking terribly artificial and out of place.
Filters like the ones used on this video tend to unify all the visual elements so now I genuinly want this.
@@hian Prequels are perfectly cohesive visually as is. In fact it's so cohesive that many people mistake the practical effects for CGI.
Plus the prequels are supposed to look different. It's the gilded age Obi-wan spoke of in ANH, so it needs to be a bit shiny. Especially since it's at the center of the galaxy rather than on the edge like in the OT.
@@LordVader1094
You might think so, but I don't. And frankly speaking, I find it baffling that you'd argue otherwise.
There's a very clear distinction between the visual quality of the prequels - in that they look much better than the OT - and my point wasn't that I would want to put retro filter on them to make them "look better", but to make them look consistent with the OT on the level of visual fidelity, which they clearly are not.
The argument that they are is self-defeating and absurd, as made obvious by the fact that George Lucas felt it necessary to go back and remaster the OT and its visual effects.
The fact that some people struggle to differentiate between digital and practical effects in the PT is a red herring and not an argument since I said nothing on that front and you have no clue what I'm able to distinguish or not.
I am perfectly aware that the PT had more practical effects than the OT by far, but that's also a red herring because they ALSO have far more digital effects - most of which have aged and don't look very good on modern displays in resolutions like 4K etc. But also, don't look consistent with the digital effects in the OT, which have aged even worse.
The digital creatures especially so.
I wasn't condemning the PT - I love the PT - so you can take your preemptive PT apologism to a red letter media comment or something.
My only point with my previous post is that it would be interesting to watch the Star Wars movies back to back, all of them actually looking like they were produced and made in the 70s, rather than it being obvious at a glance that they were produced years/decades apart.
same
Petition to have this be the season 2 trailer or opening.
Tony GIlroy is enough of a mad lad that he would probably at least consider it.

0:42 That bell chime is top notch!
This intro gave me the goosebumps back in the days! My dad, my old tube TV and I never missed an episode! Unbelievable how Diego Luna's face still the same after all these years! 😱
Hahah 😊
I remember exactly where I was when I first saw this trailer! 🤣
:DDD
Like kingo
If there was an actual show that had opening credits like this, and carried that look and feel all the way through, it would be a hit. They’d have to use all kinds of digital filters to make the film look like it was shot in the 70s. Lots of cheesy synthesizers. Judicious use of modern special effects that blended in with the campy tone of the show. I’d love it at least. Think Garth Merengi’s Darkplace crossed on an actual sci-fi drama.
For me personally this is a monument to the best series of 2022 and the best Star Wars media in years. His name is: Andor!!
whats your favorite Star Wars movie? mines ep iv
@@snichelsticks8653 Rogue One, ROTS, and ROTJ
@@AnnikaSB A lot of Rs and Os hahaha
@@jackrutledgegoembel5896 Right?? The R movies are amazing!
The bell tower anvil syncing up with the music had me cackling.
Making footage shot on modern cameras look like they're from a different time period (70s, 80s etc) is surprisingly difficult, but you guys always do a very good job of it.
These guys got great talent. But these are young guys because they mixed the 70's and 80's up, this would not be 1075.
What an era we live in where something like this could be made!
I have never cared for HD or 4K (no idea what that even means), and really miss the soft texture of 70/80 mm film.
@@juniorjames7076 you can still catch some stuff shot on 70mm large format film in some select Imax screenings for movies
ity depends how it would be
@Junior James essentially the image can be shown by more condensed groups of pixels (because 360p and 1080p, which are less than 4k, the p stands for pixels). And the softer look is created by things generally at most 720p combined with older cameras and the types of recording the used 40/50 years ago
I am 50, this is a perfect rendition of the opening credits for all of the action shows I watched as a kid.
Question then since you’re the perfect demographic but do you miss shows like that or are you a fan of todays style?
Reminds me of Supertrain
@@BarberJ95 I'm 46 and this hit a nostalgia nerve. It makes me want an Andor lunchbox. I think the flash of the robots and masks at the start of the Disney+ series is a nod to this style. I wonder if it will become nostalgic for kids today. I enjoyed the Mandalorian but I'm not watching Andor only because there's just too much. The Fear-Of-Missing-Out isn't as powerful as when I was a kid. Same thing with Marvel. I don't have time. I'm sure it's entertaining someone and that's good, but I'll stick with my Auralnauts.
Im 18 and I love shows from that era. Have you got any for me?
@@BarberJ95 I'm also 50, and funny enough just finished a rewatch of Buck Rogers (1979~1981). There is a certain charm for this period, whether its original Battlestar, Buck Rogers, The Legend of Isis, Space 1999. A combination of campiness, high adventurer and simpler times, when women were hot, the men brave and villians villanous.
This is perfect. Every note, shot used, cut. Not a single thing would improve this masterpiece
Last video I expected to see Joov on. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
1:07 the synth strings swell as they run down a white corridor in their retro prison outfits. Really landed for me.
that shot of Bix taking off the welding mask is so perfect for the credit lol
I've watched this about 9 times, it's absolutely incredible
Try 90
Only 9? Watch it some more.
Are you kidding? That’s insultingly low
I think I'm on my 100 watch.
"Gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers in this racket."
Even the ending, “based on THX” made this re-imagined opening credits phenomenal. Very nice work!
And "before there was hope" referencing episode IV. Of course when it was released it was only known as Star Wars and the subtitle only added after Empire.
It is little remembered now, but when Andor premiered in 1975 there was a lot of buzz and nostalgia for the 1936 original series.
I was 2 years old in 1975 but I had enough 70's time to remember openings like this. Brilliant.
All it needs is the 70s Andor action figure commercial to complement it. By Kenner, of course.
This is magnificent!
Grew up watching Space 1999, Dr Who and Battlestar Galactica in the 70's.
A flawless homage.
I grew watching them in the early ‘80s, but I still totally agree!
It drew on Space:1999 intros perfectly and added the Doctor Who head shot with background for the cherry on the top. Brilliant!
Man this series is so Nostalgic to me, I wasn't even alive when it aired but my dad was a huge fan, so I grown up watching the reprises with him late at night on open TV.
They don't do so much quality television anymore...
One day, unironically, someone's son will say that about Andor
*Sits in front on the TV eating cereal and yelling back across the house to Gen X*
It's ooooon!!!
Excellent production values for a 70's show. Why have I never heard of this?
Oh yeah, I rented this from the dusty corner of my local blockbuster. Never got to the end, though. The tape had a wrinkle that would break tracking.
Believe it or not but its actually a modern show, this trailer is just a parody. There is a big franchise called star wars and this is a series based on a movie from said franchise. It came out this year (2022). A show from the 70's wouldnt look like this. I cant prove it but just trust me on this one. Look up star wars on the internet, its really cool. Oh and Jar Jar did 9/11.
I remember watching this back in the early 80s, but by that time people had already moved on to other stuff like Star Trek. Star Wars always stayed very niche.
Probably a big mice conspiracy.
@@indecay8756 Actually I'm joking. Been watching Andor religiously, looking forward to the finale this week. 😄
When the disco violins hit 👌
Is it weird that I know exactly what you mean by that?
Needs more cowbell tho....
I don't think I can adequately explain how much I adore this video, this is my favorite thing on the internet.
So glad to see these actors reprise their roles 50 years later.
Yep. The remake is pretty good!
BRILLIANT!
The based on THX 1138 at the end was priceless
I do not understand the reference please teach me I'm lame
@@adammitchell1290 It's a sci fi movie George Lucas made before starwars
@@Traykartheswift whaaaat mind slightly blown
Created by George Lucas, that young director known solely by American graffitti, but based on his previous sci-fi story THX-1138
The scene with cassian’s transparent face on the 80s trippy effect thing had me laughing so hard
Automan, Manimal, Airwolf, Knight Rider, A Team, The Six Million Dollar Man, Buck Rogers, Tron, Logans Run the TV show. Captured all those vibes of an era in this one intro. Love it.
Doctor Who
Manimal, holy hell have I forgotten about that disastrous gem!!!!
Edit: one scene I will always remember is when he could not transform and had to fight a martial artist using the movement of a leopard or cougar. It was so awkward but I couldnt stop watching it!
@@DoctorCyan I know right?! Do so many people seriously not see that Tom Baker Doctor intro reference at the beginning with Andor's face?
and of course Space: 1999
What about doctor who? Y'know, the intro this video is recreating shot for shot?
This definitely has a late 70’s (or very early 80’s) vibe to it. I grew up in that era, so this really hits me in the feels. Great job!
just....like it says in the title?
@@softtacosapex6962 I think they knew that and complimented the realism
The music is very “early 80s synthpop“. Not something one would have encountered in 1975.
@@softtacosapex6962 in the title, it says 1975. Go watch some intros from that year, because it’s much different than the late 70’s.

This was absolute gold.
The little touches in the editing really sell it
Also you had me at "based on THX1138" 😆
People just dont appreciate the heart a groovy disco back track can bring. Well done.
Its being appreciated, right here, right now
@@Hitomankiri You are right. I stand rekt and poorly.
Something about the opening title reveal in the original being so melancholy and slow with to this where it just flashes on screen in the most blunt way possible with the cheesy looking text followed by synth jams as opposed to the somber music from the original just makes this so hilarious to me. Especially that the rebellion logo in the background isn’t even able to fully yet come into view by the time the 70s kicks in is just perfect. Great as always guys!
the crowd watching this video is so niche but it's my kind of niche and I feel so blessed
The part where the string instruments come in is absolutely golden
Yeah man, that was on point!
That freeze frame when she lifts the welding mask. So good.
dude... CHEF'S KISS! Thank you for making this.
The show actually seems to be very 70s inspired. The is partly due to the fact that the first movie was recorded in the 70s, and the style and to some degree the fashion is reflected through that. And we can see the same aesthetics in Andor, with a lot of the hair styles, most guys having long sideburns etc. This was extremely well captured in this remade intro as well. Good ol' job, brother!
Like honestly some of the actors themselves look like they were brought into the 70s like Kyle soller he looks like an actor who is from 1970s science fiction lol I mean heck coperate secreity in general looked like they were an organization right of 1970s sci-fi
It was cyberpunk inspired, and cyberpunk as a genre has its roots in old 60s-80s sci fi with books like "Do andriods dream of electric sheep?" And "The Neuromancer".
Andor just added a lot of good political drama to make it more than just a simple cyberpunk story.
Yeah, I also like that they keep a lot of the actors as British too. Hearing lots of Scottish, English - and Irish - accents seems to take me back to that 70s era quite a lot.
Remember watching this as a kid back in the 70s. Such a great series
The accompanied soundtrack, the still shots, the everything... very amazing. 10/10
The subtle triangle playing in the middle is pure attention to detail perfection.
That was the dude in Ferrix gonging the anvil. And yeah I thought it was the best part of the video
BRILLIANCE!!! Utter BRILLIANCE! I'm not sure many folk will appreciate how much work and actual bloody talent has gone into this. There are so many ways it could have gone horribly wrong, but you've absolutely nailed it. Star Wars, Logan's Run, Dr Who, Space 1999 and soooo many others all rolled into one pastiche. Love it!
Don't forget 2001: A Space Odyssey, lovingly commingled with the Doctor Who homage.
The narrator was reminiscent of the opening of Buck Rogers.
@@rcschmidt668 YES! How could I forget that one? I was reminded of Buck Rogers last night lol... Playing GTA V and blasting cops with the Up n Atom gun. And as their bodies flew through the air, it was like watching Buck Rogers spinning through time 🤣
Oh my Gosh! Agree this is utter brilliance. This feels like I just time travelled back to 1975 - 78 ! So joyful and true to the period. The look and sound are so authentic 😍
Peak authenticity is reached at the freeze frame after the welding helmet is lifted, and its a flat line at 100% all the way to the end.
I can't enjoy the show Andor without watching this intro immediately before it.
I have watched this daily since it's release. This is a masterpiece of both a vintage style video and of an actual trailer they could use.
If I saw this as a part of guerilla marketing, I'd want to watch pretty bad and I'm an 80s child. BUT....modern Lucas film and the Sith Lord that runs it keeps me away.
Ah yes, classic Andor on VHS before Lucas ruined it with special edition dvds!
lol
Especially when they took out all the prosthetics, and added humans back in...
Pfft! I watched it on RCA VideoDisc, where you had to flip the disc over to see the 2nd half of the episode.
@@gregdaley2661 Which is...the opposite of what Lucas did...
Treat your original, unaltered Andor laserdisc release with kid gloves.
this is utterly brilliant. the stills with the main actors in such a typical move/cinetic moment, the framing of the 1:1 screen, the sound, the colours, its really really good. I had some Knight Rider vibes, too.
The still frame character intros! The synchronised bell tower! Love it
As a kid I loved watching reruns of this when it aired between reruns of Knight Rider and Air Wolf every Saturday afternoon on the USA Network!
I think it was after reruns of Rockford and A team
There was no USA network in the 70s. It was pretty much just the big 3
too bad diego died in 1980. drug overdose

How is this the most perfect thing I’ve ever seen in my life? How does it make you feel that it’s all downhill for me from here after watching this? I’ll never live this moment, this incredible minute and forty seconds again.

This is pure genius. And having grown up on the 70s Sci-Fi shows, this is a perfect reflection of the times. Well done!
As a fan of both Star Wars and the Classic Doctor Who, I loved the combination between the two movies and shows together in an awesome way.
Even in a 70s retro remake that theme still gives me goosebumps
So good. Totally feels like a 70's into. With vibes of Dr Who and Space 1999. Well done
dr who is the sixties
@@ivanborsuk1110He’s obviously talking about the intros from the 80s
@@ivanborsuk1110 Doctor who has is still going on and has been going on for almost 60 years... It's not limited to just one decade
@@ivanborsuk1110 Doctor Who STARTED in the sixties, yes. But it was still going in the seventies. The "Classic Series," as some call it, didn't end until 1989.
The 70s never had it so good.
How is it possible I missed the OG trailer for so long! 😂 I love it
At 54. I'm relieving my 70s childhood watching this intro. Well done
This brings back memories of Saturday mornings in the 70s
The way the 70s vibe works with those explosions, perfection.
This was absolutely amazing & then Hammer Guy appeared - perfection reached
This shit goes unbelievably hard
That was dope, gives me old buck Rogers , flash Gordon, knight rider and battle star Galactica vibes
Also the Dr Who classic title sequence
And a bit of Space 1999 ! (Even the costumes matched at one point !)
Love how it starts with a Doctor Who vibe but then gets into that old timey actor list thing (which they never did in Doctor Who).
Got that from Space 1999 i believe. Its a great mash up
@@bigdude7761 Maybe - the ANDOR title style is plainly Space 1999 inspired. But the thing with listing the actors that way was common with lots of TV shows back then, and I don't think the Space 1999 opening titles are really typical examples of that (not that many of the actors featured in the opening, compared to what was typical at the time).
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. The retro soundtrack in the show was already incredible, now I want to watch the whole show in 70's quality haha
I truly do not have the words to describe how perfect this is.
Excellent. I love the hammer blows.
This feels like it would be at home on Starsky and Hutch, OMG. I just realized: Star-Sky and The Hutch. It was right there in front of me all this time.
Getting both Dr Who and Airwolf vibes from this mega theme!
Before there was hope in the galaxy, there was Andor. As a ruthless Empire tightens its grip, one man chosen by happenstance will rise up to become a leader of a revolution. He is a new kind of hero for a new age. His name...is Andor.
Title sequences really set the tone and established the entire atmosphere of the show. It always got you stoked because you were about to watch a new episode of your favorite show. Now they just flash a title onscreen for a few seconds and get right to business.

He used kubricks light sequence from 2001 space odyssey.
Just occasionally someone uploads something which absolutely takes your breath away. This is it for me.
For something that's only a minute or two long it is nothing short of outstanding. The stylish music, the salute to seventies promotion, the VHS NTSC "transfer" with noise; just all of it. What an absolute joy.
Just rewatched THX 1138 and yeah, there were moments that are in Andor that feel ripped right out of it.
All of it is perfect but the synchronized hammer strikes take the cake. Marvellous job as always
The freeze on the helmet raise, the music change during the prison break running scene and the bells ringing on the anvil hammer were all chefs kiss.
Aside from the aesthetics (Which I LOVE), It brings back something I miss in modern TV shows: A picture of the actor that goes with their credit. "Bonanza" was great that way, featuring the guest stars for that episode. Serious Dr. Who vibe at the beginning, which you can never get too much of, I feel.
Too bad there's no footage of actors turning to camera, maybe with a quick zoom in. :D
Doctor Who, Knight Rider, The Love Boat, Battlestar Galactica ...nicely done. Flashbacks of so many shows from growing up in the '70s and '80s. Outstanding.
But primarily Space: 1999...
@@blastfromthepast8344 Now you're just makin me feel old :P
Forgot to mention Buck Rogers, too.
Dont forget A-team, Airwolf, and Magnum PI !
Thanks for this, I was waiting for this specifically, and you have delivered above and beyond expectations.
They just don't make trailers like these anymore, but these are the trailers that doesn't spoilt anything and yet makes you wanna watch it because it LOOKS AWESOME!
This is not a trailer it's a fake TV intro that is trying to pretend the show was airing in 1975. But I will say this the trailers for andor did get better.
Well, this actually spoils a lot! 😂😂

@@badideabearcub2747 not really; I mean you don't have context for anything do you, if you theoretically haven't seen it yet.
I like how the title sequence incorporates the best FX job that could have possibly been done in the 70s for The Eye.
Nailed it! Love how accurate these are.
Imagine having this show back in late '70s together with BATTLE OF THE PLANETS during weekends, morning zone. PARADISE.
