I'm a simple man. I see Rogue One, I upvote.
I wish they filmed Andor before Rogue One.
A while ago I watched Andor, Rogue One and Episode 4 chronologically. It felt like a step backwards with every switch.
Episode 4 is quite good, but it's really old and kinda primitive by modern standards.
Rogue One is the best star wars movie so far, and it's just really well done.
Andor is just pure amazing! They took the comparatively long time they had and really developed the characters, the world and the story.
Watching these three in that order is really good. But watching them in chronological order really lessens the experience.
I wonder how great Rogue One would have been if it had all the worldbuilding and character development of Andor behind it.
People have said Andor made Rogue One better. I'll be honest, I enjoyed it before, but after I finished Andor S2 I tried rewatching it and couldn't finish it. It honestly killed it for me. It's not the worst movie ever or anything, but going from the incredible writing of Andor to Rogue One is painful.
It just feels so bare-bones, and compared to andor it is. Well, obviously. Andor had two seasons of development, and Rogue One had like 5 minutes for the setup.
But if Rogue One was made after Andor and could be based off it, it could have been much better.
