I think Thor is slightly jealous of Darth Biceps.
Lol totally! Is Naboo his wife, I’m fairly new here.
Obviously.
@Lilac-and-Gooseberries Yes.
@@Lilac-and-Gooseberries yes I am and welcome!
Nonsense, Qimir's got nothing on Six Foot Thor, who is 6'4"
Naboo is right.. his arms were well cast
“You know how flexible I am” 😳😳😂😂😅
Definitely agree with Naboo. I think Manny Jacinto as the Sith will go down as one of the best aspects of this show. Apparently he did all of his own action scenes (including wearing the mask) which is some impressive dedication!
I really enjoyed seeing that sweaty look on him after the mask comes off. In real life when I wear my cosplay helmets I always look sweaty too
OMG, it really IS the Power of Manny ! the subtitles had a typo 😆
It's interesting how both Qimir the Sith from here and Baylan Skoll, both dark siders, are the best aspects of their respective shows. Part of it comes down to the actors; are they picking really good actors for the dark side users?
@@Cyber1zed or just poor writing on both ends... interesting take though
Don't even sweat Darth Biceps, Thor. I am pretty certain he is nowhere close to 6'4"!
I too am in favor of calling Qimir Darth Biceps
Agreed the best reveal in this episode we’re his jacked arms
Jecki Lon's NO LONGER GOT IT GOIN ON.🤣🤣🤣
That one hurt 😂😢
Osha was Sol’s Padawan for 10 years, they said she left 6 years ago. Even so he should still recognise the difference between the twins.
He does... he knows... watch and see. He's gonna play the player.
The best reveal in this episode was the biceps on the Sith Lord
The mystery is "what is the mystery?"
Maybe the mystery is the jedi that died along the way
Cortosis was also key in the Thrawn: Alliances novel. Long story short the Separatists are attempting to create a factory with cortosis-infused battle droids which Anakin, Thrawn, and Padme put a stop to.
Naboo: Mentions Qimers biceps
Thor: 😤
Is Manny Jacinto the sexiest Sith we have ever had on screen in live action?
Its okay no one has to answer that. Because the answer is yes.
I dunno if Qimir is a Sith tbh. Maybe early Knight of Ren?
Having said that, I know very little about most things
@@rowanb4395 Sith or not, he is pretty freaking cool.
I think he might be a Ren, and we'll find out he aims to kill his master and be free of the Sith doctrine and title, effectively seeing the origins of the Knights of Ren.
I mean the arms, the Kylo theme, and just the whole "I want to be free to do as I please" attitude pretty points to this. As the Knights philosophy are just to be free willed and Live.
@@colette3401 That's a really good breakdown of things. I noticed the theme too. I really like the character, looking forward to see what happens. In the meantime, hope he practices getting a light off of his back. That's a day he definitely skipped at the gym.
He definitely was the most ripped
In ep 2, he was more like a Knight of Stimpy
I think Qimir makes for a very intimidating and scary sith. My favorite bad guy we’ve gotten in Disney Star Wars, at least in recent years
Agreed and despite it being obvious, I’m glad it’s him. The big reveal were his jacked arms
I’m just happy they didn’t waste the next 3 episodes for us to eventually find out it was him lol
Moth Gideon and baylon Skoll are better but Qimir is winning me over. I don’t even like this show but damn that was good choreography
Manny Jacinto is such a great actor, from Jason in the Good Place to the Sith here, loads of range. Manny and Sam Witwer paired as a Sith Duo would be an epic show
My theory that Yord is secretly a sith greatly complicated now, but I think it's still possible! I believe in Yord.
I’m not watching but it seemed like his “I had eyes on her the whole time” was very awkward. So it’s just more awkward writing then?
Naboo is correct, he has good biceps - my girlfriend commented on his arms and as a lean lifter myself, he has the Brad Pitt Fight Club style physique going on that someone like myself strives for.
Yes his arms were the most impressive thing this episode
I mean… in Hollywood it’s banned substances until proven innocent isn’t it? Don’t take them as standards or expectations
@@ian-flanaganYou’re Right, but his physique is definitely attainable naturally
I just love you two.
I've probably said it before, but there's no harm in repeating it.
You're my favourite SW channel, and your banter has made me smile (though not like Darth Smiley, thank God) many times when I've needed it.
Thank you for being you.❤️
I'm so glad that you found us! The more the merrier for fun star wars talks. Thank you for the support!❤
"he doesnt have big arms"
Is Thor like the mountain or something? 👀😂
See Clone Wars episode 1 for why Jedi should be able to sense the difference between identical people. That's all I have to say lol
Darth Arm Day
Darth biceps couldn't reach the light on his back because his huge biceps were in the way.
He went to the strongbad school of design, hence the beefy arm. He was also likely the one who burninated the village :)
They literally set up when the bug first shows up that they're attracted to the light.
Darth Maul being respectful of Jedi enough to allow robes removal is reflective of his master/trainers, yeah?
I think Thor is jealous of his lady saying biceps.
12:19 “Really weirdly volatile” is right! She tried to kill her sister at eight years old. Lol
I call Qimir- “Darth Pump”💪
Lowkey bro was shredded
It’s hilarious how the one thing everyone in the comments agrees with is that Qimir is hot
Gotta start lifting, Thor...
Get you some dumbbells... concentration curls, bench press and chest flys are a good start. If you got the room for a barbell and bench, skull crushers will get you some guns Naboo will swoon over in no time.
You don't have to be flexible when you have freaking TELEKINETIC powers!
I’m so glad Naboo is here. I’ve been craving a fresh perspective.
I'm still not sure what Mae and Osha want and what they are prepared to do to get it. Also, Sol is way too emotionally driven to leave without acknowledging his fallen padawan.
The writers strike must have hit this show really hard. Imagine everything is the same in the show except the words coming out of the actor's mouths made any sense. The show would be like an 8/10
I think Yord could have easily been a better character if they had more time. Like they could emphasize how Yord is constantly look down by his fellow jedi (as hinted at through Jecki and Osha) due to his poor lightsaber skills and force potential and show how he turn to his studies like learning the jedi code (which is why he knows Sol is breaking 13 jedi precepts) and learning a more complex language to prove to his fellow jedi that he is worthy. It would also explain why he sticks to the rules so much because after the spending so much time studying the jedi code, he can appreciate it. They could add also scene with Yord and Jecki discussing how strictly they should follow the jedi code. This makes Yord disobeying Sol much more impactful because it shows he has grown and makes his death more shocking. Honestly a waste of a potentially good character.
Thor, Naboo is correct. Qimir has muscular arms. At one point the “Descriptive Audio” track tells you so.
As Qimir stands, “…his muscular arms are covered in bruises, grime, and battle scars.”
So Darth Teeth is flexible and muscular…but is he 6’4?
I'm in love with Qimir. So long Yord Horde, hello Stranger Danger
Vader sensed Obi Wan too in Ep 4
Guys I think Osha is the Sith acolyte. Once I caught it, it makes more sense why the sith lord isn't killing her, why she's helping the Jefi to hunt Mae. I'm not saying it's a great show but it's what makes sense. Then she finally kills off Sol. Not a great show but it is what it is.
That is too smart for these writers
Actually, a witch using that one sith dude as a meat puppet to fight jedi might be kinda cool.
Darth Beefcake.
He looks like a Knight of Ren.
I don't think many people have noticed that Kylo Ren's theme music was playing in the ending scene.
@@JoeVulgamoreAuthor yep
Enjoyable episode overall. still rough around the edges in the dialogue and writing. I really wish we had this tone from the start. I think it could've really hooked more people in the beginning of the series if they set this type of darker take and let this period feel fleshed out. Yes the reveal was very obvious but I thought Manny did some amazing unsettling acting, also he's very hot LOL. Darth Biceps indeed.
I really hope we get more of this in the next coming episodes.
Couldn't agree more! Total upgrade from the previous episodes, but the writing/dialogue still fell flat in a lot of scenes. Loved the darker tone and incredible fight choreography tho! Manny genuinely felt scary once he dropped the goofy sidekick act. Pouring one out for my fave Jecki
There was a moment in a previous episode where Mei sounded surprised that Osha was even alive (whichever episode where Osha missed the stun blast). Obviously something bigger happened at that temple beside Mei lighting it on fire.
I'm willing to bet Mei knows what else happened but thought Osha died at the temple (hence the revenge tour killing Jedi and why she suddenly wanted to stop when she saw Osha).
My theory is that the twins are both clueless about that night and are just stuck in a "tug of war" between the unknown Sith trying to exploit them (or maybe even did the deed himself and made it look like the Jedi did it) and Sol being ridden with guilt and trying to save them.
Nothing really happened in the flashback episode to say the Jedi did something besides show up but something clearly did for that former apprentice to drink poison willingly like that.
Unless Disney is just that bad at writing but l'm willing to wait and see first mao
It's almost like watching Attack of the clones haha
He didn't need to reach the flashlight on his back. He just needed to put his hand by his shoulder and use a force to pull it off. But let's say that didn't happen. He should have been able to chop up those moths either right away or way before falling out of the sky. I bet he was hanging out in a tree for a while watching people.
Jedi Shoe Sole can’t even see a huge white tattoo on her forehead.
Anakins mind was mostly clear when he was able to sense Ashoka
6:27 Preach!
Also they’re ACTUAL twins which made the fight between them that more tragic!
So look, the show is not great. But I do think Manny Jacinto is a bright spot. Most of this episode is just a long fight sequence but I did think he kinda nailed the character he’s supposed to be playing. He’s one of the few characters I’d actually like to see more of in the coming episodes.
How about USING THE FORCE to get the light off your back????
Or his lighsaber. It's easily long enough.
He meant you don't recognize me as in from the potion shop.
As bad as it is, it's still miles better than Ashoka.
Hey Thor.
When are we going to get a Naboo victimization song/video ala Amandla Stenberg against UFC and RUclips? People are crying out for one. And yes, we agree with Naboo that Smilo was sporting some impressive pythons.
I should become a Sith if it gives me biceps like that.
Darth Sidious referred to Juyo as a Sith style. Juyo was the seventh form of lightsaber combat, and few Jedi practice it. The most notable one is Mace Windu, who transformed it into Vaapad.
Maul is trained in this form, and Sidious uses it as well. It is often described as unpredictable.
How old would biceps have even been back when the twins where kids?
The actor is 38. So if that is a factor then 22. If not anyone's guess
@@sailornaboo5725 no way he is portraying someone thats almost 40 in the show though..
@@Shingeki1323 For all we know he could much older than he looks.
The dark side has never been sexier. Thank you Manny aka Darth Biceps!
Why is everyone saying this guy is ripped. He literally had the stature of a female ballerina. Frail and brittle. The guy does a set of lateral raises prior to the shoot and they rubbed some oil on his arms.
Darth Biceps 💪🏽😂
I can't with these nicknames lmao
Are we sure Yord is dead? He only broke his neck. It's not like he got sliced in half and fell from a great height. Not that that would kill you.
At this point, I think it's cannon that if someone was just to find him on the ground in the forest and impale him with a lightsaber, it might bring him back to life?
@@rowanb4395 seems very logic!
"Jedi on witch action"...are we not doing phrasing anymore? Or was that intentional?
Darth Dentist was fun to see.
oh also... i can touch all of my back with my hands and i have scoliosis.... thanks gym class for making me be flexible in the way lol
Brothers Sol and Qimir are. Split at birth they were, one light, one dark. Stop talking like Yoda now, I will. Fun, it was.
My theory is probably very, very wrong.
Wow, Thor stole the OSHA line talking about how “Flexible” he is.
Oh, Behave!
Also, he can Force push like Ten Jedi 50 to 100 feet back, but can’t force pull something from his back?
Seems unlikely.
Churchill coined the phrase “A riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma”
I coined the phrase, that Lucasfilm’s scripts are “a contradiction wrapped in a Contrivance inside of incompetence”.
Yord was the ONLY Jedi who learned Bazil's language. Basil will try to tell the Jedi to no avail lol
Enjoyed it a lot, best dueling since Prequels, with the heft of ST and the rest of the Disney+ shows. Those deaths were insane. This episode redeemed a lot of the exposition in the first couple, even if I don't still love the structure. Cortosis! That headbang to short it out was so metal.
Wish these episodes were longer so we could care about Yord and Jecki's death more, and why so many wipes! Just hope the swapped places segue into the episode 7 flashback and add some crazy elements to the space chase next episode. And could Qimir be a Knight of Ren? Kylo's theme played at the end with the curious quote.
is it really a mystery if most of the characters know all the answers, and it’s just Osha and the audience that don’t?
the show actually feels like it has the parts for an interesting story, it just doesn’t know what to do with them.
…and is the fact of Osha and Mae being Force babies going to be relevant at any point? it was mentioned, almost in passing, in the flashback episode, and that’s it. Osha has visions of child Mae intermittently, but those seem to only go one way, and they don’t seem all that unique in the world of Force dyads and such 🤷🏻♂️
No doubt Naboo is the wise one.. taking things with patience and waiting for a good ending and not hating everything just because is different and new, i suppose Sol is not trying to sense Osha because someone that is in front of him looks exactly like her, he doesn't have a radar or detect osha spell activated all time, episode had details but nothing to not enjoy how good was everything..
Waiting for a good ending? Why should I have to wait for the show to get good at the end? Shouldn't the whole thing be good? And, yes, a Jedi is essentially always sensing the Living Force around them like a sixth sense, that's literally how the Force works. Sol would 1000% not get the same feeling from Osha that he always does; that it's the feeling he's got around Mae.

Yall should review House of the Dragon!
I don't hate it. Waiting to see how everything finishes up before giving my full thoughts on it as a whole.
Grin Reaper
Mae knows about Jedi abilities. Not only should Sol have realized it was Mae, not Osha, but Mae should have known better than to think she could fool Sol that way.
I liked that jeki, or however she is called, was the most competent fighter of all the jedi, it was a little odd that darth ezra miller easily killed all the jedi and then struggled to kill a padawan, but also kinda cool.
Also, anyone knows what happened to jorg’s apprentice?? I am pretty sure he had one in the first episode and then we never saw her again
I was convinced that Mother Coral(?) was Qimir's master but now I'm starting to think they're the same person somehow.
She might have transferred her consciousness into his body at some point for one reason or another, similar to how Palpetine attempted to do the same. This would be their way of retconning the origin of that power into the story. This could also be Hedland throwing in a transgender allegory.
He could also be messing with everyone's memories through some Force power. In what seemed like a throwaway line at the time, he asked the Jedi not to wipe his memory when they apprehended him in Episode 2. Could have been a bit of foreshadowing. I won't go into detail but this could explain a few things but could also create more problems so O figure this is unlikely.
If the bugs were attracted to the light then why did they go after Qimir? He is a sith after all.
They mean actual physical light as put out by a light bulb... not spiritually "light"
Twas a joke
《The HairCutO'Lyte》
...i think Osha & Mae are Two Sides of One Person...
...(like the scene in "The REYS of Palpatine"...?)
...or maybe i'm just Splitting Hairs...
...but maybe Darth Biceps is their Twin Brother??

《Mae The Thread Bewitch You》
Why didnt Qimir just use the force to grab the torch or push it from his back?
With the flashback in ep 7 I believe we'll see that's definitely Sol climbing the temple and we're gonna see him spying on the Witches training the twins and Sol is gonna stumble or knock something over and it's gonna cause the interruption/noise that stops the lesson we see goin on in ep 3. This show is dumb and feels pretty predictable now. I think the line during the dual where Sol says the Sith feels familiar is just a reference to Sol meeting him in the shop where he had made the poison for Jedi Master that ended up drinking it
Darth Ripped
Spoilers House of the dragón….
The whole thing about "oh Qimir couldn't reach the flashlight with his arm" is pointless: he has the Force. He could have easily Force pulled it and thrown it away. Garbage.
Muscles make you less flexible so unless Thor gets jacked, it doesn't even matter if he can remove something from his back. But for reference, I easily could, too. If they used a Droid, they should've used one that could keep moving just out of reach and stay attached to his back. Because honestly, I think you need like Schwarzenegger Mr. Universe muscles to not be able to reach your back. Pretty sure even "Darth Biceps" should be able to unless he's legitimately injured his tendons or something and doesn't have full range of motion. I don't think his muscles are big enough to get in the way. But this channel's Thor really probably isn't a fair approximation. I'm guessing he's not built like MCU Thor lmao.
11:25 I dont forgive this scene. Our Jedi dont know that at the time but Sol still just stays a few meters behind Osha... the one, that caused the bug to be aggressive in the first place. He is just hoping the bug would attack him? poor directing imo
the combat training scene in the temple - remember how they were being taught: "don't adapt to unexpected conditions, just keep doing the same old stuff that isn't working"
If an adversary has cortosis armor, don't try to use the force to throw the adversary at a rock, throw a rock at the adversary. I had thought the show was actually having the characters make smart choices, I liked for example Yor following when Ohsa wandered off from the group, that's a rare example of a character doing something smart. but dumb-choice count has leapt ahead
Right now I'm thinking this series would have worked so much better as 4, 1-ish hour episodes rather than this drip feed or it'll be better if you sit down and watch it all at once.
Darth Bisex
thor and naboo, im so tired of being gaslit into liking this show. id love to send you screenshots of some of the conversations I've had. i also didn't hate episode 5. if ya'll saw some of these conversations i tried to engage in... it's honestly disturbing
I do know that jedi practice with helmets on that completely blind them, trusting in the force to direct their blows. But despite this knowledge I am still discombobulated about how anyone in their right mind can attempt to fight with a helmet on. I have done this in a larp setting. You are cut off from most sensory input, like hearing, and most importantly seeing. Whatever shape your helmet is, your only connection to reality is that slice of it that comes in via your visor. One who has not done this cannot imagine the deprivation. You hear everything distorted and you see very little, at night it is impossible. If you look at Smylo Rens helmet you see a pencil thin crack in the structure of the item through which the character can see. You are almost blind. I know, technology, yada yada and so forth. Darth Vaders visor let him see even more clearly. But here. Hmmm.
He's Darth Venom yall.
I truly don’t get the hate.
Star Wars:
Where a farmer, old man, a smuggler and his dog invades a planet destroying military base filled with millions of soldiers and rescues a highly valuable prisoner…
Let’s not forget the teddy bears that defeated the emperors finest with sticks and stones…
Silly reductionism
Fuck off. Tired of all you "criticism bad" shills
Moths????
Ngl interesting story on paper minus the twins and witches. Could have been nice with just the jedi and smiley
I'm with Naboo on this I need to see how everything plays out before I can really form an opinion on this show. Right now, I'm enjoying the fun of theorizing about what's going to happen next. I'm still not entirely sure if Qimir is a Sith or a Knight of Ren. They played Kylo Ren's theme at the end did that mean something, or was it just a coincidence? And i love Naboo' name for Qimir hence fourth he shall be known as Darth Biceps 😂
Darth Ezra
Too much thought getting put into soap opera bad TV as far as I'm concerned
Acolyte ep 5: "Everyone with a dumb haircut DIES!"
Wish there was a laughing emoji option
I’m always hoping n the finished story will make me so glad I saw it. There’s still a chance?
Somehow episode four was skipped. Who's on board for Bazil's Snazzles?
Not to be “that guy”, but just an observation as the discourse around this show continues…it seems like quite a few female Star Wars fans are pretty okay with the Acolyte, and the guys…not so much. I find it kinda fascinating. I think the women writing this show have crafted something that genuinely appeals more to women but the guys just aren’t feeling it.
