It just feels like if you were in middle school and tasked to write a short story, and your teacher was like “didnt you say that one character had a mark on her forehead”? And you said “she can just move her hair” your teacher would be like -_-
When the writer calls the actor who can't act a genius, I can't help but think the actors are all the ones calling the shots because the writing doesn't seem to be done by people who know how to write.
What's wild is she wrote and show ran Russian Doll, I liked the first season of that quite alot, but never finished it, but then I watch this show and it's just like Wheel of Time where the showrunner feels like they know how to reinvent the wheel and royally fuck it up.
@@GreyMagee74 it works there because Russian Doll has no lore so they could literally write whatever and it becomes canon. But Star Wars has a literal metric ton of lore, so a person going "well I don't like canon and I do what I want" becomes horrible. That is not even considering that there were 3 people writing Russian Doll so its hard to tell if she was an ideas person while the other two actually wrote the thing.
I first watched Star Wars on VHS. I had my wife(not a Star Wars fan) watch the 1st episode of Akolyte with me to make sure I wasn't just being a hater. She said it was bad, boring, and stupid to have a Jedi die to a throwing knife. I don't know who the target demographic is for this show.
Why? Indara's opponent used throwing knives. She also used misdirection to distract Indara while making the fatal plunge. The Whole point was that Mai used subterfuge to beat a superior opponent.
the show doesn't have a demographic, this is just her dealing with her past and trying to reason out her choices in life, and simultaneously asking for forgiveness by saying anyone could have made that mistake, or at least that she did and that she regretted it. That said the story could have been better etc. Lots of intricacies, could have had a jedi master from the council actually sense the plot afoot and show them coming up with plans to counter it, show us WHY the council existed, and how brilliant, competent, and insightful they were.
M8 it’s definitely not just you. I watched SW on VHS too, shi I’m only 28 so it wasn’t even that long ago… I remember that box set on repeat for years, probably the most influential entertainment of my youth. Utterly destroyed by a couple of woke tards and a handful of looney feminist chicks. Don’t waste your time or your money on the franchise brotha, do what I did and ignore everything to do with SW. Haven’t seen or paid for any of their products since whatever fkn first movie Rey was in. Don’t know the name, and don’t care to find out.
There's no way that the moment twins get the intelligence to do so that they DONT swap names to fuck with parents...for...way too long or forever. Cause how would you even know? Lmao
I always think to myself "would this show be good as a standalone sci fi series separate from star wars" and this would never have been green lit in the first place if it wasnt connected to star wars
Makes Star Wars show for non Star Wars fans and is surprised when the people who like Star Wars don't like it and expect people who've never liked Star wars to like it now just because..... weird witch cult? Guy with his shirt off? Force sensitive twins?! The Skywalker and Valkorion twins think that's super original.
@johnj.spurgin7037 so another Darth Sidious, Sheev Palpatine. But actually giving him his own storyline where he runs almost all of the galaxy's sketchy organizations from the shadows?
Yeah. That "inspection", along with the AR State Health Department and Steritech, are somehow infinitely better than this entire show. And I hate bureaucracy and the red tape from those people who do these "inspections" and do absolutely nothing but softball sludge about keeping in line the problem people who can't keep things very clean.
Thinking emotionally explains 98% of the writing in this show. Why did the character suddenly want to be caught?? Because it was what they felt would be good at the time.
@@NightfurySkrill_Joel You cannot say that they ruined marvel when that company has made millions while under Disney. The fact that the latest marvel films are doing worse is a consequence of over production and people getting literally getting burned out on the superhero genre.
Headland is not a good writer and neither are the other writers that wrote the Acolyte. They were just a DEI hire by the worst person at Disney Kathleen Kennedy.
I am pretty sure KK is purposely hiring people that will ruin the series, and anytime someone actually shows competence and success she gets rid of them or sabotages them. Then everything starts to line up and make sense, all the director changes, Gina Carrana, season 3 of mandalorian where she pushed her view onboard, and of course, restricting Rian Johnson to a project he didn't want when he had some other great plan ready (and don't get me started on that but I will sum it up, he purposely sabotaged it, he was pissed that he wasn't given his own project and was put on a project that he couldn't even properly pursue because the first film wasn't even out, he had nothing to do with the first film and there was no continuity. FYI when Lucas had the Empire Strikes Back go into production, STAR WARS had already been out for several years so everyone knew what it had been and what they were following up, they even often were crew or actors from the first one and Lucas helped oversee the story to keep it on point.)
To be honest, I think looks kinda cool, but I never would have guessed it was from Star Wars. It just strikes me as out of place. It looks a mix of chainsaw man and a vapos crewman from Warframe
@@PenPllwcas yeah, it does look kinda cool from a certain angle. It still looks kinda goofy to me though. Maybe it's just me. Either way, have a nice day 🥰

@@williamjacob2060 lol but also so when he watched the movie he could point himself out amongst the blue and green lightsabers in attack of the clones xD
Yea i think its fair to choose lightsaber colors by athestic if you make sure to write around that. Like with mace windu, at first its just cause samuel jackson wanted a different color, but then they added lore to it and wrote mace windu's character around said lore. Shit like that is totally valid. But what they did is they ignored established lore, and that is not ok
If I remember correctly the colors corresponding to character types started with a video game. It was then fleshed out that the force would guide padawans to find a kyber crystal that suited them which would also determine the blade color.
Imagine if Nux appeared in a Star wars show as a random character and didn't tell anyone. Only to then go online two years later and say "I already did a face reveal, No joke. I played *Bi'bono Kla'tekha from Star Wars: The Plasma Dragon* that's me on your television screen, covered in makeup and silicon prosthetics, you are never getting another Face reveal!" I think that'll be a flex. *Bi'Bono Kla'Tekha* is my favourite Glup Shitto.
Speaking of the writer strikes. I've had a theory for a little while now. I believe "big corpos" have decided to hire only people who will not stand up for themselves when it comes to shitty contracts. Unfortunately this means its only the bad writers who get hired. Edit - 8 episodes is not enough time? I don't know how long the run time per episode is, but assuming each one is around 30 mins, that's around 4 hours total run time. Average movie length is around 2 hours long and they don't seem to have any problems (for the most part).
I’m not a Star Wars superfan and even *I* know that light saber colors depend on their owners. You can be the toughest looking guy around riding a Harley Davidson and with the manliest handlebar mustache possible and your lightsaber color could end up being pinkish purple. There could also be a little girl in the cutest dress with her lightsaber color being blood red. I love color aesthetics too, but there’s no way this person is an actual bona fide Star Wars fan like she claims if she’s tossing aside such important details for the sake of aesthetics. She probably sees herself as a fan because she watched one or two movies and can list some aliens…
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think to make Red Lightsabers, you have to bleed the crystal in the middle. It's considered an immoral act because rather than bond with your lightsaber normally like a Jedi, you pour all of your negative emotions into it to corrupt it. It's one of the major tests you have to undergo to be a Sith. So yeah, appearances can be decieving, but you don't end up with a red lightsaber by accident.
@@jontyonopko that depends on if your going with Legends or Disney Cannon. Disney Cannon you are correct but with Legends you follow the force to find your crystal which could be any colour, typically blue or green but you could get red as shown by Adi Galia whos original crystal was red but she was pressured into switching to a different coloured one. Also in legends the sith lightsabers use artificial kyber crystals. So although in Legends the colour can be anything i believe there is a tendency for jedi of certain alignments to get certain colours but in canon it is purely based on the owner. I might have miss remembered a thing or two but thats mostly correct
I just remembered that it's synthetic not artificial kyber crystals that legends sith have (similar but thought id mention it) and also either real or synthetic is stronger than the other and i dont remember which way round it is but i want to say that synthetic ones are stronger
@@L4g__ ive heard both that crystals can be bled essentialy tortured with negative emotion then theres also sith alchmist that just create red crystals i dont believe those are as powerful though
It baffles me how blatant they are about not caring about the source material. Then again, Disney has reportedly told people to ignore the source material, so this downfall could've easily been avoided if those in charge had any business sense and logic at all.
It's just wild cause the girlies aren't vibing with this artificial attempt to make a tumblr sexy man at all. If you go to tumblr and pinterest, the thirsty fanfics are still about (early)Kylo Ren, young hot angsty Obi Wan, hot long haired Anakin, Din being a dilf, twinky Luke, bad boy Han etc. All these characters were originally just written as normal, and fandom had the room to sexualize them themselves while still being able to enjoy the story on a base level and understand that separation between how the story functions and the fandom version/interpretation of the characters. When Disney does this thing where they make a pandering character meant to be sexualized, the girlies don't have anything to do. It feels manipulative and fake. And there's nothing underlying the character to work with other than those superficial traits so obviously meant to be attractive. (And I hate to say it but they might say they "omg loooove representacion!!!" but they really only ship M/M or M/F. Lesbians are purely for virtue signaling and not at all for fanworks or actual enthusiasm.) Say what you want about the reylos but their interpretation of Kylo usually comes with a bunch of angst, childhood trauma, impressive competence, complex emotions, and most importantly the intriguing possibility that their self-insert Rey can "Change him." There’s none of this with the acolyte sith guy. And the female character they're meant to identify with isn't well suited for it either :/ That's why the reylos have literal fanfics on the NYT best seller list and the Acolye is struggling to compete with Andor. tldr: The Girlies only accept fresh organic tumblr sexy men, the artificial pandering ones don't capture their interest. Disney can't even do that right.
The ability of shippers to interpret the most anodyne interactions between two straight men as evidence that they secretly do butt stuff to each other is amazing.
The idea that 8 40 minutes episodes isn't enough time to write a coherent character arc is possibly the most brain dead take of all time. This show is like 30 minutes shy of the run time for the original trilogy of this very franchise. Imagine if George hadn't made a proper story in 3 movies. What would they have to bastardize if he was as much of a hack as them.
I made a joke about the Acolyte after I saw it: “Hehe- wow. Is Disney going back to their old *antics* like in the sequel movies?” Then I saw this today and thought: “OH DEAR SWEET MERCIFUL GOD- DISNEY’S GOING BACK TO THEIR OLD *ANTICS* LIKE IN THE SEQUEL MOVIES!!!”
The has nothing to do with writing. I'm 30 years old I noticed since 2008 that people think being a nerd is mean stream. This is not a fan of star wars or sci-fi, this is just a tumbler blogger.
Mainstream is only taking the shallow of nerd culture not understanding what is beyond the point of what they assume nerd culture is, and moreover they still laugh, bully and harrasaing nerd culture.
@partydave1067 this makes me wonder if the whole beating up nerds thing has been around ever since its inception and people just thought they grew out of it and became more accepting to it. Only for, you know, still beat up nerds in the process.
I miss when I got beat up by jocks for being a nerd. Now the "nerds" beat me up for being too nerdy. Star Wars was better when it was an indie-production, not hollywood slop.

I refuse to watch the Acolyte because of who the showrunner is. Lesley may not have admitted to anything, but being Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant, she definitely knew what was going on and the fact that she didnt do anything about makes it all the more rich when her show is tanking because of her inability to be creative at all.
Fun fact 2 of the most famous identical twins in film were cast as the same character until they had a movie about their show (im talking about the Sprouse brothers)
They often cast twin kids as characters for sitcoms because kids are only allowed to act for half the time as an adult, so having twins play one character was extra shoot time.
BUT Star Wars saved Lesbian headlamps life dont forget !she told us so while trying and failing to force out a tear at Star Wars celebration. i think that's where it was. i dont know why no one ever calls her out for it

We’re ripping ALL of Disney? May I make the suggestion of checking out ‘Wish’? A movie so bad that they wrote the villain as a reasonable man, cut the love interest character in favor of a ‘toy’ character, and the leading lady is actually stupid and evil.
I for real ran down a list. "Oh it's definitely Darth Talon. Then Vader, then his grandson, but legends where his name was Jacen, then Darth Maul" Nux: "Darth Ballsack" Me: "....I have been corrected, carry on."
I had walked away from Star Wars after the Book of Boba Fett. But the sheer vacuum created by the talentless hacks at disney pulled me back in to it. Honestly they deserve every down vote and negative review the show has received.
There’s tons of lore as to why the dark side of the force makes the Sith look ugly, it’s actually literally doing damage to their bodies. And somehow we got a “sexy Sith”?
I love the timing of Where Nux pauses the video n started saying if he’s found dead, it wasn’t him, and he has no suicidal thoughts or feelings whatsoever, n plays the video and the No One Cares just gets bigger behind him 😂
There are 3 types of Freedom 1) The freedom of the mountain man: The freedom do do what you want and you receive the benefits and consequence of your action. 2) The Freedom of the tyrant: The freedom to do what you want and have others protect your from the consequence of your action 3) the freedom of a child or prisoner: the freedom from responsibility. You let others decide what you can do and what you get. What the Sith and all tyrants do is offer you the freedom of a child while getting everyone else to give them the freedom of a tyrant.
😂our Jedi are not the same Jedi from the movie era….. Meanwhile one of the Jedi masters from the movies who shouldn’t even have been born yet is in the show and is already an adult😂
and, Vernestra doesn't get sick in hyperspace, she has a rare talent where she has litteral VISIONS when she travels through hyperspace... how di this become "getting sick"
one thing I hate about the high republic is that it's only 200 years before the prequel era. it's such a small amount of time for the universe. thers no way things changed that much even with the Sith fucking things up in the shadows. Or obviously in the light as they are in this show.
Oh shit…REALLY NOW? Cuz if so, no wonder she doesn’t really care how it comes out n is a shitty writer! A job is basically TOTALLY ASSURED forever then huh? 😳
The hyperspace disaster that Indara was talking about in Acolyte episode 7. It was in the book Star Wars High Republic Light of the Jedi & Into the Dark. Where you can learn that all life on some planets was built in this event. Vernestra was alive at that time and because she is more connected to the force and when she travels through hyperspace she tends to have pain/"nausea". You could say that it is something similar to when Darth Nihilus in Star Wars by Republic vacuum cleaners the life from the planets. Better to read it or at least watch some lore video about it.
Wrathful Khorne, God of blood, Devious Tzeentch, God of Change, Pestilential Nurgle, God of Decay, Cruel Slaanesh, God of Excess and Lord Nuxtaku, God of Pettiness
Something I realized halfway through the series is that they do not understand George's world at the fundamental level. The darkside of the force and the sith are representations of selfishness, do whatever it takes, sacrificing everything and everyone you love for power. It draws on negative emotions like hate and anger. Bad things. Jedi are the opposite. Weinstein's assistant doesn't see it like that. The darkside isn't bad, it's freedom, it's counter cultural, it is liberation. She doesn't see it as a bad thing, so she has to write the jedi as the bad guys and fails completely. Look at what George makes the sith look like: Maul is a devilish villain, Sidious is horrifically scarred. Vader is a shell of a human. All the Disney siths are hot dudes. Darkside is hot, it's good, you should like it. Her identity politics have completely warped her view of one of the simplest stories of good and evil. George made it so easy to understand, he color coordinated the opposing sides laser swords. Blue for virtue and honor, red for violence and hate.
That sounds like this is a kid doing a school project without really caring and just having fun... and not a part of a huge franchise with an insane budget and an army of fans...
Ironically, freedom is one of the tenants of the sith code. "Through victory, my chains are broken. The firce shall free me." It's just that when they say "free" they mean doing whatever the fuck they want in any particular moment. No matter how bad that may be for other people.
I'm not a Star Wars fan either but I've been watching _The Acolyte_ out of morbid curiosity. It's probably one of the worst TV shows I've ever seen. This happens in the first episode - Mae kills Indara - Somehow the eyewitness gives an accurate enough description of the killer that they think Osha did it - They somehow find Osha within a day (it's said the murder occurred "last night") - The eyewitness, _who the Jedi have brought with them,_ identifies Osha - They arrest Osha and she gets put on a prisoner transport - The prisoner transport, after a completely uncontrolled re-entry, crashes into a planet - Osha is somehow not injured at all - The Jedi locate Osha on the planet What the hell was the point of the prisoner transport? She was with the Jedi, then they separated and then they came together again on the planet. It's like that was only added to pad out the episode.
More correctly what grade level 2? 3? 4? 5? I bet you could get a good high-school to rpg star wars home brewer could come up with a far better & coherent story& storytelling. But they most likely won't toe any agenda. A ) because they probably would br straight. B) be teenage by actually be familiar with star wars C) care about how the story plays out , making the sith truly evil. D) no geder politics just good vs. Evil
nux you need to look into the lore of the star wars droids, the quick line of "reset you to factory settings" is actually way darker when you realize how complex the droids are in star wars. a couple of good videos are "the dark truth behind droid sentience" and "the tragedy of droids in star wars"
True, it's a digital death sentence since their personalities grow organically as they aquire memories and experience and as they go they develop emotions and bonds to their masters as well. Regularly resetting them is used to keep them subservient and enslaved and literally wipes their minds out.

But Star Wars has a literal metric ton of lore, so a person going "well I don't like canon and I do what I want" becomes horrible.
That is not even considering that there were 3 people writing Russian Doll so its hard to tell if she was an ideas person while the other two actually wrote the thing.
Look up the director filmography. Everything she worked on before either reality TV and female debases shows
@@GreyMagee74 "Reinvent the Wheel" Hahaha, I have won again Lews Therin.
I first watched Star Wars on VHS. I had my wife(not a Star Wars fan) watch the 1st episode of Akolyte with me to make sure I wasn't just being a hater.
She said it was bad, boring, and stupid to have a Jedi die to a throwing knife.
I don't know who the target demographic is for this show.
Herself. 😂
Why? Indara's opponent used throwing knives. She also used misdirection to distract Indara while making the fatal plunge. The Whole point was that Mai used subterfuge to beat a superior opponent.
the show doesn't have a demographic, this is just her dealing with her past and trying to reason out her choices in life, and simultaneously asking for forgiveness by saying anyone could have made that mistake, or at least that she did and that she regretted it.
That said the story could have been better etc. Lots of intricacies, could have had a jedi master from the council actually sense the plot afoot and show them coming up with plans to counter it, show us WHY the council existed, and how brilliant, competent, and insightful they were.
M8 it’s definitely not just you. I watched SW on VHS too, shi I’m only 28 so it wasn’t even that long ago… I remember that box set on repeat for years, probably the most influential entertainment of my youth.

Disney buying Star wars really was a death knell for the true canon
I mean everything in legends is not canon. So yes literally
What 2 IP's did Disney buy out and ruin?
Answer: StarWar's and Marvel.
@@NightfurySkrill_Joel You cannot say that they ruined marvel when that company has made millions while under Disney. The fact that the latest marvel films are doing worse is a consequence of over production and people getting literally getting burned out on the superhero genre.
@Temperans and the fact the vast majority of movies after endgame sucked
Writers?! STAR WARS FANS?! naaaaaah you got a back water ex babysitter because she was fired for negligence and has NEVER heard of a star war.
Headland is not a good writer and neither are the other writers that wrote the Acolyte. They were just a DEI hire by the worst person at Disney Kathleen Kennedy.
Russian Doll was actually pretty good, but Headland only co-wrote one episode - that should've been a warning.
I am pretty sure KK is purposely hiring people that will ruin the series, and anytime someone actually shows competence and success she gets rid of them or sabotages them. Then everything starts to line up and make sense, all the director changes, Gina Carrana, season 3 of mandalorian where she pushed her view onboard, and of course, restricting Rian Johnson to a project he didn't want when he had some other great plan ready
(and don't get me started on that but I will sum it up, he purposely sabotaged it, he was pissed that he wasn't given his own project and was put on a project that he couldn't even properly pursue because the first film wasn't even out, he had nothing to do with the first film and there was no continuity. FYI when Lucas had the Empire Strikes Back go into production, STAR WARS had already been out for several years so everyone knew what it had been and what they were following up, they even often were crew or actors from the first one and Lucas helped oversee the story to keep it on point.)

and Mace Windu has a purple lightsaber because thats what Samuel Jackson wanted lol
@@williamjacob2060 lol but also so when he watched the movie he could point himself out amongst the blue and green lightsabers in attack of the clones xD
Yea i think its fair to choose lightsaber colors by athestic if you make sure to write around that. Like with mace windu, at first its just cause samuel jackson wanted a different color, but then they added lore to it and wrote mace windu's character around said lore. Shit like that is totally valid. But what they did is they ignored established lore, and that is not ok
@@cantinadudes i like what they did for the what if with the sith hunter still had red color but he essentially collected sabers from his Targets
If I remember correctly the colors corresponding to character types started with a video game. It was then fleshed out that the force would guide padawans to find a kyber crystal that suited them which would also determine the blade color.

Speaking of the writer strikes. I've had a theory for a little while now. I believe "big corpos" have decided to hire only people who will not stand up for themselves when it comes to shitty contracts. Unfortunately this means its only the bad writers who get hired.
Edit - 8 episodes is not enough time? I don't know how long the run time per episode is, but assuming each one is around 30 mins, that's around 4 hours total run time. Average movie length is around 2 hours long and they don't seem to have any problems (for the most part).
Corpos truly believe they're untouchable...
The Acolyte, a tv show about selective memory: made by a woman who saw nothing in 4 years working for Harvey Weinstein.
I’m not a Star Wars superfan and even *I* know that light saber colors depend on their owners. You can be the toughest looking guy around riding a Harley Davidson and with the manliest handlebar mustache possible and your lightsaber color could end up being pinkish purple. There could also be a little girl in the cutest dress with her lightsaber color being blood red.
I love color aesthetics too, but there’s no way this person is an actual bona fide Star Wars fan like she claims if she’s tossing aside such important details for the sake of aesthetics. She probably sees herself as a fan because she watched one or two movies and can list some aliens…
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think to make Red Lightsabers, you have to bleed the crystal in the middle. It's considered an immoral act because rather than bond with your lightsaber normally like a Jedi, you pour all of your negative emotions into it to corrupt it. It's one of the major tests you have to undergo to be a Sith. So yeah, appearances can be decieving, but you don't end up with a red lightsaber by accident.
@@jontyonopko that depends on if your going with Legends or Disney Cannon. Disney Cannon you are correct but with Legends you follow the force to find your crystal which could be any colour, typically blue or green but you could get red as shown by Adi Galia whos original crystal was red but she was pressured into switching to a different coloured one. Also in legends the sith lightsabers use artificial kyber crystals. So although in Legends the colour can be anything i believe there is a tendency for jedi of certain alignments to get certain colours but in canon it is purely based on the owner.
I might have miss remembered a thing or two but thats mostly correct
I just remembered that it's synthetic not artificial kyber crystals that legends sith have (similar but thought id mention it) and also either real or synthetic is stronger than the other and i dont remember which way round it is but i want to say that synthetic ones are stronger
@@L4g__ ive heard both that crystals can be bled essentialy tortured with negative emotion then theres also sith alchmist that just create red crystals i dont believe those are as powerful though
@@williamjacob2060 huh i didnt know Legends kyber crystals could be bled, i suppose it makes sense tho
It baffles me how blatant they are about not caring about the source material. Then again, Disney has reportedly told people to ignore the source material, so this downfall could've easily been avoided if those in charge had any business sense and logic at all.
It's just wild cause the girlies aren't vibing with this artificial attempt to make a tumblr sexy man at all. If you go to tumblr and pinterest, the thirsty fanfics are still about (early)Kylo Ren, young hot angsty Obi Wan, hot long haired Anakin, Din being a dilf, twinky Luke, bad boy Han etc.
All these characters were originally just written as normal, and fandom had the room to sexualize them themselves while still being able to enjoy the story on a base level and understand that separation between how the story functions and the fandom version/interpretation of the characters. When Disney does this thing where they make a pandering character meant to be sexualized, the girlies don't have anything to do. It feels manipulative and fake. And there's nothing underlying the character to work with other than those superficial traits so obviously meant to be attractive. (And I hate to say it but they might say they "omg loooove representacion!!!" but they really only ship M/M or M/F. Lesbians are purely for virtue signaling and not at all for fanworks or actual enthusiasm.)
Say what you want about the reylos but their interpretation of Kylo usually comes with a bunch of angst, childhood trauma, impressive competence, complex emotions, and most importantly the intriguing possibility that their self-insert Rey can "Change him." There’s none of this with the acolyte sith guy. And the female character they're meant to identify with isn't well suited for it either :/ That's why the reylos have literal fanfics on the NYT best seller list and the Acolye is struggling to compete with Andor.
tldr: The Girlies only accept fresh organic tumblr sexy men, the artificial pandering ones don't capture their interest. Disney can't even do that right.
Damn, would you look at that.. thanks for giving us this insight into tumblr culture, this is wild on so many levels. How does disney fumble so bad?
This comment gave me both deep cringe and enlightenment.
The ability of shippers to interpret the most anodyne interactions between two straight men as evidence that they secretly do butt stuff to each other is amazing.
The idea that 8 40 minutes episodes isn't enough time to write a coherent character arc is possibly the most brain dead take of all time. This show is like 30 minutes shy of the run time for the original trilogy of this very franchise. Imagine if George hadn't made a proper story in 3 movies. What would they have to bastardize if he was as much of a hack as them.
I made a joke about the Acolyte after I saw it:
“Hehe- wow. Is Disney going back to their old *antics* like in the sequel movies?”
Then I saw this today and thought:
“OH DEAR SWEET MERCIFUL GOD- DISNEY’S GOING BACK TO THEIR OLD *ANTICS* LIKE IN THE SEQUEL MOVIES!!!”
I'm genuinely crying after being reminded about how badly Doctor Who was massacred two Doctors ago. Fml
Somehow Disney ruining star wars returned.

I refuse to watch the Acolyte because of who the showrunner is. Lesley may not have admitted to anything, but being Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant, she definitely knew what was going on and the fact that she didnt do anything about makes it all the more rich when her show is tanking because of her inability to be creative at all.
Fun fact 2 of the most famous identical twins in film were cast as the same character until they had a movie about their show (im talking about the Sprouse brothers)
They often cast twin kids as characters for sitcoms because kids are only allowed to act for half the time as an adult, so having twins play one character was extra shoot time.
Before them, it was the Olsen twins, who played the same character in Full House.

The hyperspace disaster that Indara was talking about in Acolyte episode 7. It was in the book Star Wars High Republic Light of the Jedi & Into the Dark. Where you can learn that all life on some planets was built in this event. Vernestra was alive at that time and because she is more connected to the force and when she travels through hyperspace she tends to have pain/"nausea". You could say that it is something similar to when Darth Nihilus in Star Wars by Republic vacuum cleaners the life from the planets. Better to read it or at least watch some lore video about it.

Something I realized halfway through the series is that they do not understand George's world at the fundamental level. The darkside of the force and the sith are representations of selfishness, do whatever it takes, sacrificing everything and everyone you love for power. It draws on negative emotions like hate and anger. Bad things. Jedi are the opposite. Weinstein's assistant doesn't see it like that. The darkside isn't bad, it's freedom, it's counter cultural, it is liberation. She doesn't see it as a bad thing, so she has to write the jedi as the bad guys and fails completely. Look at what George makes the sith look like: Maul is a devilish villain, Sidious is horrifically scarred. Vader is a shell of a human. All the Disney siths are hot dudes. Darkside is hot, it's good, you should like it. Her identity politics have completely warped her view of one of the simplest stories of good and evil. George made it so easy to understand, he color coordinated the opposing sides laser swords. Blue for virtue and honor, red for violence and hate.

I hate Acolyte with so much passion, and I know so little about STAR WARS. That says a lot about how bad it was.
I'm not a Star Wars fan either but I've been watching _The Acolyte_ out of morbid curiosity. It's probably one of the worst TV shows I've ever seen. This happens in the first episode
- Mae kills Indara
- Somehow the eyewitness gives an accurate enough description of the killer that they think Osha did it
- They somehow find Osha within a day (it's said the murder occurred "last night")
- The eyewitness, _who the Jedi have brought with them,_ identifies Osha
- They arrest Osha and she gets put on a prisoner transport
- The prisoner transport, after a completely uncontrolled re-entry, crashes into a planet
- Osha is somehow not injured at all
- The Jedi locate Osha on the planet
What the hell was the point of the prisoner transport? She was with the Jedi, then they separated and then they came together again on the planet. It's like that was only added to pad out the episode.

D) no geder politics just good vs. Evil

nux you need to look into the lore of the star wars droids, the quick line of "reset you to factory settings" is actually way darker when you realize how complex the droids are in star wars. a couple of good videos are "the dark truth behind droid sentience" and "the tragedy of droids in star wars"
True, it's a digital death sentence since their personalities grow organically as they aquire memories and experience and as they go they develop emotions and bonds to their masters as well.
Regularly resetting them is used to keep them subservient and enslaved and literally wipes their minds out.
