I can hope for another show with the same tone & production values as Andor. A dream project would be a sequel of sorts, politics & espionage, Mon as the main character as we see the Rebel leadership & spies on one side & ISB on the other during the Galactic Civil War (OT timeline).

I hope to see more SW like Andor, though to a point you have made is that it is unlikely
I “need” to see more Mon (& Genevieve O’Reilly), & I would love to see a series with the same production & tone as Andor set during the galactic civil war with Rebel leadership & spies, & the ISB being the focus

Loving your Andor recaps.
I have been obsessed with Star Wars (SW) since I was a kid, I enjoy & at times love the many “flavours” SW has come in, & I am so happy that it has also come in this “flavour”.
Mando (seasons 1-2) is my favourite SW since the ESB, but Andor is clearly the best.

Hoping Cobel or Devon are near that stairwell to help out Gemma, & those innies need to get to the security room fast to ensure Lumon can’t easily control them.
I hope we see more of Irv in season 3 🤞.
The Gemma episode is my favourite of Season 2.
& South Aussies pronouncing Lego 😀.

Overall loved it.
Loved the heist aspect done in only a way that a show like Severance could.
The ending left me with really mixed feelings about character choices, & so intrigued on where the show goes from here (hopefully don’t have to wait 3 years).

You have got me watching the show, which am enjoying it so far.
Some great acting & stories.
I work at a hospital/healthcare service (not in a clinical role) & can certainly relate to some of the characters.

Cheers, can’t wait to get him.

Don’t collect Classified but Battle Armor is a must for me

As an individual movie, really like it to love it, contains some of my favourite scenes re Rey, Kylo & Luke, & my least favourite in all of SW in the Canto Bight scenes.
As part of a trilogy it feels like that “went to the shops and bought” kids game.

One of the many talented Mythic Legions fans, mentioned he is buying a 2nd dragon to paint and customise into a Granamyr.

Love the ep and discussion.
Have backed the base dragon and can’t wait (assuming it funds). Will get the fiery breath add-on later in the campaign.
It may sounds nuts to buy as seperate but the additional shipping is much less than the customs & duties when it is above $1,000 AUD.

Absolutely re from China directly.
It is their first “rodeo” into a much heavier & item than usual, & they just haven’t thought through other shipping options.

The shipping cost outside of the east coast (US) is brutal.
Have seen up to $490 USD in some cases (think was Indonesia) & similar in parts of Europe, $300ish for Australia (where I am)
March 8, 2025 at 3:35 AM
And have you ever shipped spending that is 20ish kg / 40 lbs from the US before ?

Do you think Gemma knows how long she has been held in the testing floor ?
Was she doing testing from day 1, or something else originally, could she have been severed for an extended period of time. Perhaps a period of time when she had an IVF baby that was then taken from her.

I thought Cold Harbor will be about the trauma of dying (& then being revived). Specifically her drowning, foreshadowed with the question from the nurse about being stuck in a mudslide and Gemma answering drowning.
But I like your thoughts about overcoming grief for Mark.

Loved this beautiful & heartbreaking episode of Severance.
Enjoyed your discussion of the ep & a few thoughts.
That transition shot about 20 minutes in of Gemma’s eyes, the lighting, the sound instantly reminded me of Lynch.
Overall the way this episode was shot was cinematic & something special.

An interesting connection another fan was discussing with me, was the origin of the word “robot”, Slavic word meaning forced labour, and coming from a 1920s play en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/R.U.R , very interestingly featuring a character called Helena.

Oh and Turturro was incredible, his reading of a name, just four letters, “Seth” was brilliant.
February 10, 2025 at 9:18 AM
Gwendolyn Y in ep 1 of this season mentioned that they had automatons at their branch.
Maybe it’s robots not clones, & they are trying to perfect the transfer of human consciousness into a robot. 2/.

Think you are right re Helena, think she sold it to the board that she would pretend to be Helly for control purposes, but secretly wanted the affection that she has never received. We do see a baby Keir in the opening credits.
Love the robot anagram, think the “twins” are automatons/robots. 1/.

He in particularly and Britt Lower as well must be nominated for an Emmy for their performances.
An incredible performance, and an outstanding performance.

Comparing the happiness & confidence of outie & innie Dylan has me thinking about free will, that many argue is an illusion, how we act & make decisions today is shaped & directed by our past.

Also has me thinking about when I lived overseas & the freedom of a blank slate of sorts.

Awesome to have you back.
Re Cowarros for Mitch, can also recommend Ali Express, especially with free shipping retailers and when they have coupons available.
I am reasonably big into Mythic Legions now and Cowarros is still one of my favourites, he is awesome.
