Just saw Disney+ list 700,000 subscribers in Q1 so far. Terribleness or prices? Is that a lot?

Disney+ globally closed out last year with 124.6 million subs, down 700,000 sequentially. That included a 1.5 million loss internationally to 67.8 million and an 800,000 gain in the U.S./Canada to 56.8 million. For the March quarter, the company is forecasting another “modest decline” in total Disney+ subscribers compared with fiscal Q1.

That's a global loss, but they actually gained subscribers in the US and Canada. It's only a 0.6% drop in total subscribers. At the same time, they increased prices by a minimum of 7%, so they should be further ahead money wise.

Loved Andor season 1, can only hope for season 2 to be as good or even better!

They'll have to be careful not to show Andor knowing so much (the construction of the death star), or having so much character growth, that it contradicts Rouge One.

They sure seems to think Luna is good at walking.

Looking forward to it.

Damn, that’s a badass trailer. The Steve Earle song makes it even better.

Love the wing angle when he takes out the transport.

Whod've thunk you could use thoughtful camera work to make your star wars show more effective

A lot self pats going with the reviews of Season 1 peppered in there. Still looking forward to it looks good and the first was great.

Agreed, that shot from the wing into the tank on the field is great. Felt very "Ukrainian Drone".

Are they stealing X-wings, are they bringing that piece of Lore into Andor?

I like how Disney milked the critically acclaimed part given that it's their only show they can confidently stake that claim with. Along with the awards-bait font choice.

The "hey look guys, this one doesn't suck!" subtext is palpable.

Disappointing not to see SM-33.

Since he's the greatest Star Wars character of all time. On account of being the droid we all would have wanted as children.

Otherwise good though!

The show still had relatively poor ratings so it's necessary. Star Wars fatigue is real for many.

IIRC, those X-wings already belong to Saw Gerrera. They were sitting at his base when Luthen visited Saw.

First off, good riddance.

Second, what took so long?

Third, why not now? Like, today.

As I recall...weren't X-Wings a fairly old model? An improved version of the Z-95 Headhunter? Just upgraded because thats all the Alliance could afford and then they realized how tough and well-built they were and they upgraded them?

They are pretty awesome.

They're fast, they carry missiles, they have shields and a hyperdrive and an astromech and they have 4 lasers!

X-Wings are pretty bitchin'!
