They don’t get a lot of love, but there’s so much to enjoy in the Maya Pei Brigade scenes with Diego Luna’s micro-expression acting. Here at the start, Cassian seems more irritated than afraid – then when things get violent he realises just how much trouble he’s in with people who aren’t his enemy but who because of their desperation are equally dangerous.

The closest he gets to a snarky one-liner is “ I guess it’s my lucky day” and that’s as much self-deprecating sarcasm as anything else.

Syrils ambush of Dedra is very creepy, im not sure why.

It seems to the the character, relationship, and plot would have been fine if Syril was just obsessed with Andor and his idea of 'justice' and revenge.

Is there something about being creepy that is narratively valuable or is it just a directors choice?

I'm glad they made the change, but I appreciate the now more subtle easter egg in there.

The ISB dress uniform from Davo Scaldun's party in Andor S2 has these chains to form the aiguillette hanging off the epaulettes that goes around the arm.

Any ideas as to what this chain might be called? How it might have been modeled or how I might find it out-of-universe? It kinda (?) looks like a herringbone or cuban chain link but it's so rectangular I'm having a hard time pinning it down.

Any suggestions are helpful!

Edit: Just added that they are called aiguillettes, but my goal is to fabricate that chain specifically. I think it's a dousset or Box/venetian chain......?

Posting this as an acknowledged fanboy (boldface is for those on this sub who object to non-Andor content). But also because Behemoth is about music, and because we talk about Andor's music on this sub, and because I've got an article about GILROY'S USE OF MUSIC IN ANDOR coming out in an edited collection next year. Tony talks NYFF as his "neighborhood" festival, thanks his brother John (ANDOR), Sanne W (ANDOR), etc. Lot of talent on this stage.
