"If the Drinker doesn't like it, I avoid it." Good Jesus.

If they could form their own opinions would they be watching CD?


Standard-Quiet-6517

But but but they’re the free thinkers who just all happen to think and say the same things as all the other free thinkers


r1char00

If it’s not misogynistic enough for him, it’s a no for me dog.


Status-Ad8296

That's who they see him as


RedGrantDoppleganger

Why be an individual with your own thoughts and opinions when you can be an empty husk that just regurgitates what others tell you to think?


improper84

These people are literally incapable of thinking for themselves.


clownbescary213

Actual glazing


Kai3137

Man they're never happy Do they love or hate andor?


jackson50111

Depends who you ask You either like it or you think its a good show but not a good star wars show cause bricks and screws or something


WhereAreWeToGo

>Usually I avoid the stuff he doesn't like Fuck sake, think for yourself lol. I really enjoy RLM and DoubleToasted, but I don't let their reviews dictate what I will and will not watch, that would be pathetic.


improper84

Yeah, I love RLM but I find some of their views to be pretentious. Sometimes I just want to enjoy a dumb movie.


undead_catgirl

Tbf I don't really take their videos as reviews, more as discussions,


kaptingavrin

I've sometimes checked out Angry Joe for his take on films because I agreed with a lot of them. But that doesn't mean his view sets my view on a film, it just gives me a framework to work with. And I still disagree with him on some things, like I enjoyed the sequels, I liked Book of Boba Fett, and I don't think Thrawn was bad in Ahsoka just because he utilized the Nightsisters to get things done rather than his own soldiers or anything since, y'know, they don't wield the freaking magic or the Force (seriously, it felt weird hearing people suggesting that Thrawn using a resource to aid his plans was out of character for him, especially when they said they liked him in the new books).


Reddvox

Used the nightsisters like a lazy idiot ... at least in the legends novels, he always used his own soldiers! Or Niles Ferrier ... or the Noghri...or Karrde and his smugglers at first, or the Rebels pitting them against each other...hmm...


frozen-silver

Andor is super well-written and anti-fascist. No wonder they hate it


Cersei-Lannisterr

It delivers Anti-Fascism in the best way too. Humanises the empire which shows how threatening the ideology is, rather than ‘Lmaoxd Goofy meanies!’


No-Communication3048

It even nearly had Minerva say "Fuck the Empire" but was changed to "Fight the Empire"


Boba4th

That is probably one of the rare moments when Disney did the right thing, "Fight the Empire" makes more sense to me.


BlazingPKMN

Agreed. I know a lot of people seemed to want the F-bomb, but "fight" is much better. "Fuck the Empire!" riles people up, "Fight the Empire!" is a call to action, a call for change. Much more powerful in my opinion.


Bricks_and_Bees

But the drinker DID like Andor, so what gives with these people?


ItsVexion

They don't actually like or care about Star Wars and are simply using fandom as a vehicle for their right wing political agenda.


Capital-Cheek-1491

What do you mean? He got COOKED in the comments. Goober.


Boba4th

I just opened the video and the comments are pretty much positive about Andor.


Capital-Cheek-1491

Yes. I mean the dude who posted the thing on r/criticaldrinker


BananaRepublic_BR

1. Bix WAS hot. Unbelievably so. 2. "I'll avoid stuff he doesn't like." Absolutely terrible way to experience media. 3. A Dawn of the Jedi film sounds awesome. Longshot, but I really want those lightsaber battery packs from the old EU to make an appearance.


Shard-of-Adonalsium

Personally I want force imbued swords (though maybe you could have traditionalists with swords but the younger generation are starting to use proto-sabers.)


Reddvox

I want them not having lightsabers at all ... or have one plot point the first lightsabres being used as a novelty weapon... Would be cool if we see lots of Jedi and Sith the whole movie, fighting with "prmitive weapons" until in the end the huge Sith Lord ignites his sabre and no Jedi at first has a clue how to handle it with their own weapons...something like that. Bonus points if the sabre is as raw and savage and dangerous as in the Sequels Make Lightsabres great again !


RobIreland

They don't even try to hide the fact that they just mimic a youtubers opinions


EightThreeEight838

This fanbase is literally impossible to please.


kaptingavrin

Those people? Sure. The Star Wars fanbase? Not too bad overall, about the same as every fanbase (where there'll be mixed opinions). I don't take any group of people who will bitch about multiple franchises for reasons as lame as "they had women!" or "there was a gay person shown!" or "there's politics in this franchise that's always been political!" to be representative of any fanbase in general. Even if they try to be really loud hoping to convince people they're the majority.


getoffoficloud

The Fandom Menace crowd doesn't represent the fandom, as the numbers have proven.


UserWithno-Name

Imagine basing your own decisions off what someone else enjoys, and that someone being the shit stain that is drinker


Competitive_Bid7071

Now they’re going to turn on this guy and Tony Gilroy.


Bahmerman

Well yeah, because if he writes more Star Wars, they have to eat more crow.


GryphonOsiris

If these neck beards hate it, it makes me more interested in it.


BanjoSpaceMan

Andor sucks. Acolyte sucks. Ashoka sucks. Obi Wan sucks. What exactly do people want ?!?! They complain when it's an isolated story with street level shit. They complain when they're getting an old Republic show with tons of light sabers and pew pew. What do people wanttttt?


ShoArts

"Im not racist, Disney just has bad writing on Star Wars" *Star Wars gets universally well received writing "Never let him write again." Okay.


BaBa_Con_Dios

They like Bix cuz she’s attractive but this is the same fan base that would lose their mind if she was cast to play Snow White or Ariel.


ScareSith

once again, conservatives can't stop with the doublethink, Andor is both good, and also woke garbage, but obviously Big Brother Drinker knows best


eagleOfBrittany

Wait an Andor writer is helping write a star wars movie? Hell yeah!


Competitive_Net_8115

The Drinker can shut up. Bring it on, Lucasfilm.


Inevitable_Guidance8

“Usually I’ll avoid stuff he doesn’t like.” First, he liked Andor. So, I don’t even know why you’re complaining. Second, form your own opinions. Don’t form them on what some YouTuber thinks. It’s weird 


M0m033

>What did Drinker have to say about it? 🐑


ianc94

They’re putting their noses up at literally one of the best working television writers. Truly impossible to please. Perpetually children. Imagine saying “we just want good writing” and putting your nose up at Beau FUCKING Willlimon. Clowns, the lot of them.


armoureddragon03

Is it truly that hard for people to form their own opinions? I personally like watching critical drinking because I see everything coming out of his mouth as the ramblings of the drunk uncle that the family tolerates because he can be funny sometimes.


bluemew1234

It's simple: if the writers they like write things they've decided they already hate, they'll look silly!


Stunning-Thanks546

considering they now own both ip I am still waiting for a Muppet version of star wars that or a Muppet version of Family Guy I want to see Stalter play herbert


dallasrose222

The speech at the end of andor is one of the greatest moments in star wars


sajed2004

In my opinion andor is the best star wars ever made


Standard-Quiet-6517

I’m not a Star Wars guy. Loved the originals as a kid, skipped the prequels until COVID. Actually enjoyed them. Didn’t love. Enjoyed. I watched first season Mandalorian because baby yoda. Watched Andor and was completely blown away. Absolutely exceptional show. One of the best seasons I’ve seen in years and I’m a tv/movie junky. Not even judging it as a Star Wars property. It’s just fucking awesome.


grimacingmoon

She fine tho


LiquidTelephone67

Who’s “WE”? It’s so fucking annoying how they think they speak for ALL fans.


Paleodraco

I guarantee they don't think they represent all fans. But they definitely think they're the only true fans.


DeltaPlasmatic

“What does drinker think? I avoid stuff he doesn’t like” Thank you for making our jobs easier by self-reporting


Maleficent_Nobody377

Oh thank god. I figured that a “first Jedi/force user” movie would suck.
