Andor injects some classic Star Wars action into its series with Luthen's fight against Imperial ships in Episode 11.
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Episodes 1-11 of Andor.Episode 11 of Andor, titled "Daughters of Ferrix," mixed in a little bit of the old with the new in a dazzling ship chase sequence that harkens back to what we love so much about Star Wars.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY While Luthen scrambles to hack a serial number to placate the Imperial Patrol commander, he is already actively engaging in an escape plan that leads to a chase scene taking us all back to classic air battles between the Allied Forces and the Empire of Star Wars lore.
Luthen's Ship Is More Than Just a Freighter Once his ship is powered up, Luthen surprises the Cruiser with the deployment of rear defense projectiles that destroy the tractor beacon's parabolic dish, and he is able to break free and engage with a handful of TIE fighters. The sequence is visually fantastic as Luthen navigates in a cockpit that is similar to the most famous ship in Star Wars lore - Han Solo's Millenium Falcon.
This Is What We Love About The Franchise The scene executes at a wonderful pace as the effects are riveting and the sounds harken back to sitting in a theater with our jaws dropped watching similar scenes from the original trilogy. You can't help but wax nostalgic about sitting in your local theater with a bucket of popcorn and a soda and being completely gobsmacked with never-before-seen airship conflicts between the Falcon or rebel X-Wing fighters and the nefarious TIE fighters.
The dizzying cinematography and spectacular explosions are accompanied by the resounding sci-fi sounds that we love about George Lucas' creations going back all the way to 1977. Whether young or old, the ship chase scene in Episode 11 of Andor was a terrific callback and a reminder of why we hold this franchise so dear.
