Star Wars has been in the tail, with only one highlight.
That highlight is the two seasons of the series Andothis is the best for a very simple reason, for a long time.
This is the first Star Wars product to know the galaxy since George Lucas left, who is the distant villain.
The true villain of Star Wars is the unanimous face of evil throughout the franchise, and it is not, nor should it be, the dark side of Palpatine or the troops. Absolutely not Anakin or Snoke, nor is Adam Driver in Vader’s tribute to the mask.
This may not be Luke Skywalker, although if he drank too much blue milk and became sloppy enough, you would never know.
The real villain of Star Wars has always been the government bureaucracy.
Death Star is DMV
In the first film, Death Star is the ultimate representative of bureaucracy as the true evil.
That superweapon is the ultimate form that happens when a large number of sicophantic bureaucrats deprive their wealth of control and use it to build huge, unrealistic, completely flawed weapons of war.
It is run by a group of middle managers who are followed by a group of middle managers on the conference room table.
When Death Star doesn’t work, the same rigid, incompetent bureaucratic structure run by Imperial DMV workers, they only care about keeping their jobs so that they can’t admit they are wrong, turn around and do the same thing again.
Death Star is a California high-speed rail that could have been all the way to San Francisco, but now the cost is ten times that of Bakersfield.
Luke Skywalker didn’t fight the troops
This clear real-world similarity makes Luke Skywalker’s journey so exciting and easy to identify.
He did not fight a man or a mysterious and evil force. He is fighting a corrupt bureaucratic oppression system.
When we had to fall down and buy new license plates for the truck, we all suffered the exact same system of oppression.
We torture the same when filling out forms for the IRS.
Luke fights a team on behalf of all the ordinary people who want to be stayed in hell.
This trend continues in the prequel, when Nab’s bureaucracy was attacked by a group of middle-level managers of the Trade Federation and hostages were taken.
As the prequel continued, it upgraded, and the Old Republic gave a huge swollen bureaucracy and covered up Palpatine, thus helping him to get promoted.
In a sense, Palpatine is the highest product of the bureaucracy. He is its greatest creation, a natural result of years of expansion and traditional Chinese tape until no one objected to it.
Andor puts bureaucracy in cross
That brought us there Ando.
As mentioned at the beginning, the best in the recent Star Wars series is Andoand Ando is the best Star Wars series recently, especially because it makes the show’s only villain make that swollen bureaucratic.
Ando It’s about the people in the compartments and meetings and plans to destroy the innocent.
They do this not because they love evil, but because that’s how they get paid.
Ando Season 1 follows several aspects of crushing bureaucracy.
In the multi-episode arc, it explores the imperial judicial system, which is so overwhelmed by the selflessness of prosperity and bureaucracy that it focuses more on making money for middle-level managers, turning middle-level managers into judges and prison guards rather than doing anything like actual justice.
If you have any runs with the justice system in the real world, you might spend these episodes screaming and pointing at the TV because it accurately depicts how it is used only for the service itself.
Sympathy for the devil
Even the bad guys on the show are trapped in the nightmare of the imperial bureaucrats and face bureaucratic challenges, they will sympathize.
They also lost their way in a series of cubicles and endless meetings, and everyone just wanted to see it on their own and had no interest in doing the actual work of the government.
If you are an adult who has ever tried to get health insurance or help older parents deal with social security, everything you see on the screen is an accurate representation of your reality.
Ando Season 2 is where Season 1 stops Next, in the conference room there is a bunch of middle managers casually cleaning the planets to complete a swollen public works project so they can win promotions.
It goes on to introduce controversial immigration topics, by introducing corrupt imperial bureaucrats who appear on planets to carry their minds and enable them to do so under the table.
This is the reason Ando is the only effective new Star Wars.
Why Disney Star Wars didn’t work until Ando
The JJ Abrams movie fails because they are obsessed with Palpatine and Skywalker.
Performance Sergeant Lost in the Jedi’s back-spike religion.
Mandalorian The collapse was because it became obsessed with Katie Sackhoff’s royal destiny and supported the beauty of corruption in the New Republic, rather than fighting it.
Ahsoka Trying to make a villain Thrawn, a traditional Chinese tape festival demolitioner with Iron Fist.
Skeleton crew Think it can solve all problems by focusing on taking risks. But Star Wars is never just a shallow adventure.
Palpatine represents the true villain of Star Wars
Star Wars should have only one focus and a real villain.
This is not Palpatine, never. The real villain of Star Wars is represented by huge bureaucracy Palpatine.
Every character in the Star Wars universe struggles under his weight.
That’s why the galaxy is full of black markets and smugglers, and that’s why you like it.
Because Heroes of Star Wars are not only taking over the empire, but also taking over the IRS, lawyers, instrument maids, healthcare systems, and every annoying thing that attracts your life.
Star Wars was at its best when Dilbert carried lightsaber in the 1990s.
When Star Wars deviates from this formula, it no longer feels like Star Wars and starts to feel like something else.
And we already have a lot of other things.
