I have such mixed feelings about Mon Mothma's storyline in Andor, because, on the one hand, I love getting a close look at her personal and professional life during the Imperial period...on the other hand, I can't shake the feeling that the creator(s) of the show really dislike her. At least, they have no respect for her character before she commits to the Rebellion. As though everything she did as a senator in the Republic, working closely with Padmé and Bail, was meaningless because it wasn't enough to prevent the rise of the Empire (or because it wasn't dark, gritty, or violent enough). The show treats Bail Organa's character poorly too, and never even mentions Padmé.

Did anyone else get this impression? Or is it just me?

#'mon has to be broken out of her delusions (by the ghorman massacre)' delusions of what #she's already been knowingly funding armed insurgency by the massacre and the speech #how sickeningly patronizing shudders #I unlocked my 'ghorman massacre was not what radicalized mon' post after seeing this jfc #doesn't this say something about how people see mon that I have uses for the post multiple times #mm #I also don't wholly agree with the notion that basically the senators talking about Palpatine's overreach means anything real to the #rebellion 14years after #but people people's faux vindication against mon is eye roll worthy as ever #107 is wasted on people #shoving mon in to a readymade frame yeah great media literacy

Negativity doesn't not equal fun, I guess I enjoy writing long ass posts about something negative?? Not really, but it does help me.

MM excerpt from Moving Target by Jason Fry- Set before Return of the Jedi - the Rebel Alliance learns about the second deathstar

Best Mon and Leia in canon, actually this is one of the best material about Mon. Some phrases and descriptions, I can practically see and hear Genevieve?? Love how Mon is written here so much, her position, her heartaches, her authority and limitations, her relationship with Leia and Chandrila... Just so good.

Also always generally love seeing how the Rebel Alliance works.

Think the Villains affect my enjoyment more significantly than I thought

I do think that the most interesting thing about Mon in MoF is not that she's tortured or body-modified but that she's granted a full agency and her actions as a senator is considered with consequences and weight and is allowed abilities and merits beyond giving a speech or having money and finally is really intentional - in all her choices and maneuvers. No space for people to not get it.

Definitely could have done without the mechanical stomach thing lol, not because it devalues her Andor arc somehow, but because dark history doesn't inherently make something interesting. Mon's special cause she's a great politician that's insane enough to do all that. Like the author excellently demonstrated. But the author apparently liked the blorbo whump too.

But the specific fact that she got hurt doesn't devalue her journey or the book to me. Yes her journey can stand without some explosion, that explosion's not really needed and can be seen as excessive due to that, but that also means that her arc is meaningful separate from all that.

despite enjoying mask of fear, andor!mon is kinda more interesting to me if you ignore it. the presumed lack of genre-typical trauma and violence as backstory is part of why she's interesting

I do find it funny how in my country musical fans are like 'hey look they tried to tighten up the story!!!' and casual fans are like 'I don't think the overall story or the character motivations are well drawn out' lol

tbh I loved all the female characters' love story- including Nessa, this is important - so I had a real good time so I don’t really care... but part 1 numbers are certainly better, that I agree
