FIRST TIME WATCHING: Andor S1E5

Hate that you're in pain (or were since it was last month now) but as others mentioned, this was a surprisingly refreshing and fun reaction vid, the laying down bit changes it up enough to feel more intimate like a sleepover and less like you're working! I follow tons of react streamers/youtubers and none employ this tactic on the regular but I think it'd be genius if someone were to do this permanently because it's such a unique setup. Popcorn in Bed comes to mind but sitting up is really no different than on a sofa--doesn't hit the same as someone actually sideways in their thumbnail LOL

Get better, Nat! Actually, with the heat we have right now in Spain lying in the floor doesn’t seem a bad idea

I hope you get better. We love you to the moon and back.

if you wanna lay down with headphones you can use a neck pillow as a normal pillow or make a U or donut out of a blanket

Looking forward to Hitchhikers on Friday, I know you really LIKE Martin Freeman lol

I feel like we're dragging Nat's wounded body across a battlefield to a distant field hospital... "Just....leave me--...leave me to die...." "NO! You don't quit! The medics are JUST over that hill! Here!" *pulls out phone* "React to this! It's uh....uh..........CATWOMAN! From 2004, it's TERRIBLE! It's famously one of the worst movies of the early 2000's and it stars Halle Berry, but it's also one of the best unintentional comedies! You stay awake! Keep pressure on that wound!" 🤣🤣🤣 Feel better, Nat.

About Vel, you're absolutely right. They played it very subtle but she was trying to get Cassian to stop looking at Cinta lol, because yes they're together but it's very subtle and not in your face

The battle of Yavin is the first film. Luke blowing up the Death Star. So just think of BBY as a countdown to Star Wars.

So...did she turn the screen on its side?

I'm telling you Nat, a tens machine would fix your back in days.

Hope you can get your pain taken care of. I dealt with back pain for years before finally having surgery. Luckily it worked for me, but I have heard horror stories. Anyway it does give the reaction a more cozy vibe though. One of the things I love about Andor is there's so much subtext to just sink your teeth into. It's not about the action. Though when there's action it's fantastic as well. Each character whether "hero" or "villain" also has layers. Things to both like or dislike about them. That scene with the tie-fighter buzzing them was terrifying. I think I would've turned to jelly at that moment. Great episode and ready for the mission next episode.

Felt like watching one of my favorite shows with a good friend back when I was a kid or a teenager...very cool. Should do this more often (assuming it's comfortable, that is).

Yeah Nat, much of Andor's young life on Ferrix hasn't been shown. But there's been some mentions. In the 3rd episode Luthen mentioned that the Empire hanged his father on Rix Road, showing that Luthen had done his homework on Andor. In episode 4 Cassian or Luthen (I forget which) mention that Cassian went to a youth prison at 13 for 3 years, then was forced to fight in the Imperial Army on Mimban. Mimban was the mud planet that young Han Solo served on in the Han Solo movie, the mud planet where Han met Chewie. So Han and Andor both served in the Imperial Army on that awful mud planet. That's all we know so far.

The laying down is so valid, love the sleepover vibes! Super cosy, and good for the hips 😂 I’m glad you mentioned how calm and collected Kleya is compared to Luthen, she’s one of my favourite characters in this show and they’re such and interesting duo

Aw hope the traveling goes smoothly and the pain eventually dies down

Not gonna lie this setup gives it a cosy vibe. Hope you’re healing psychically before this show starts traumatising you emotionally.

Happy Monday Nat. Love today's thumbnail 😊 Another cosy reaction with you today. Glad that you finally got to finish Hitchhikers. Looking forward to watching it with you. Take care Nat 💛

I am married to karaoke weekends, but I secretly preferr to lounge on the side...

The laying down actually made the reaction more casual, like watching a film with your sibling or something. When people sit up at a desk or in a computer chair, it feels more formal. Like you’re away this is what they do for living. I kind of like the change of pace, but hope you do feel better. As far as the episode, I love when Andor does its action-light installments because that’s when it fills in its support players. The Aldhani crew all get some moments here, Vel and Cinta get introduced as being together especially, and I love that even Kleya and Luthen get a chance to interact more. The Luthen and Kleya connection has to be my favorite arc that grows over the course of the two seasons, but feels wanting at times in this first season. Hell, even the Mon Mothma interactions with her family filled in some things for me in this episode. It’s a solid installment for sure.

You should play GTA like this ,that would be fun to watch.

use a neck pillow but use it on its side as a donut for the headset 😊

Take care Nat and have some nice travel time.

"The axe forgets but the tree remembers" 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Yeah more Nap with Nat content... Hope the pain gets better soon for you, we are all happy with whatever you can do for us, we understand that we may get less content but take care of yourself 1st..❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

You look hella comfortable in the thumbnail. Excited to watch this one, really building the tension for the upcoming climax of this arc 🔥🔥🔥🔥
