Gotta give credit where credit is due…the lightsaber fights were sick and I’m glad they had the balls to kill those characters. The writing and character development is still shit.
It was a slow burn until halfway the show with different directors. Ep 4 was definitely the weakest lf them all. The metal he use is cortisor which is from legends (EU)
He can’t do that. He’s completely blinded by his hatred. He literally criticized the excessive lightsaber twirling, but then he’ll glaze Nick Gillard in the next breath? That’s insane.
@@brennanbarber7469he is the reason why I think r2d2 is indeed a lesbian
In all fairness, Theory doesn't really care for Andor. So I don't think he really cares all that much for writing. He just wants a Luke Skywalker fanfic series with a big budget.
@@Mat-xe8pt Isn’t it interesting how fast they can become defensive about pronouns lol one second it’s purely biological, the next second they’re throwing a fit that someone JOKINGLY suggests a droid isn’t a male.
The show is awful but this was easily the best lightsaber choreography from Disney so far. I enjoyed it
Pretty low bar there.
same here!
Not really cringes as this show
Anakin vs Obi Wan flasjback was great too, and everyone saying: low bar, yeah youre rigjt but this was actually better than Dooku vs Anakin and Obiwan in attack of the clones so its up there
Yeah wish we saw more of the actual fight instead of having Osha's POV
Let’s be honest, if a character we knew very well was doing the exact same fighting choreo, we’d all be drooling our mouths out of excitement
Word
Exactly
Imagine seeing Luke
For real. People are being so blinded by their hate for the writing that they can't recognize when something good actually happens. Personally the fights are the only thing I've been looking forward to in this show, since that's what all the very early marketing and leaks about this show were talking about. No doubt that this is the best fight we've gotten since the prequels. So say what you want about the writing and story, but there were very clearly some true Star Wars fans working on these fights.
A Jedi hitting a sith with the hilt of her saber, multiple times instead of cutting his head off is good because...?
I really like the brutality of those deaths and the fight, just that, theres dumb writing all over the place
Still the fighting comes out of nowhere like that "sith" has no reason being there
@@darthplagueis-z6y absolutely, talking just about the fight, with no context and ignoring the whole script
@christophervelazquez1862 the show can't be saved, I'd rather they shove in a *really* good fight scene for once in the decade since Disney start making star wars movies, instead of attempt to salvage the writingthen have a half assed fight
@@6-dpegasus425how is that a half assed fight? That was very well choreographed. Stop hating for nothing give credit where it’s due those fights were great.
Gotta give credit where credit is due. The stunt men and women do a great job in this show. Especially this episode. Our new sith...😂 he moves great. Chaotic and powerful. Slicing and breaking necks. Solid sh*t.
I don't think they used a lot of stuntmen. As from what I could gather it's actually the actors doing a lot of the work, Especially smiloren
Are you just antagonizing now for the clicks or what because this was far from a bad fight scene and episode as a whole. You say you want to see something different and creative, they showed a dark side force user massacring Jedi in ways we haven't seen on film in all out survival light saber battle, a Jedi padawan tapping into the dark side duel wielding light sabers in form IV and you're still critical of it? Dude...c'mon.
He's been hanging with the wrong crowd like rk outpost who is obsessed with woke shit. Not surprised Theory has become so sad and negative...
He watches this show already hating the series regardless of the outcome of the episode and finds ways to nitpick so what makes y'all think he's a reliable critic? So biased and y'all don't even wanna admit it.
He’s a terrible critic that hates everything it really pisses me off
Yep… I enjoyed his videos but now all he does is talk very negatively… sad
So…you guys are the same then.
I have no doubt you guys were doing the "But he might not be a sith", last week. So, what's your new line for this week? Talking about bias when you defend everything, no matter how illogical, or lore breaking it gets. Ridiculous...
@@ajm3578 My initial guess was that he was a sith and he alluded to that although he didn't explicitly say that he is one. Twitter is theorizing he might be one of the earliest Knights of Ren but Manny Jacinto just confirmed that he is a Sith Lord on a new EW interview.
The fight secenes just show what modern star wars could actually be, such a shame they cant write a story for shit
The Figth scenes are not good bro. Wath are you even talking about? Nothing changed since the Sequels, still Trash.
@@pascalschacher6971 your just hating like a mug bruh
@@pascalschacher6971they're actually the best champ. What are you on about?
Idk man I'm kind of intrigued now. There's some darkness in sol that I want to know about, and I don't think this dude is the sith, he must have a master. And honestly the deaths of the two other main jedi really surprised me. I thought maybe one, but both? And the addition of cortosis was a nice touch.
@@pascalschacher6971stop hating for nothing you won’t get a standing ovation for hating. Give credit where it’s due those fights are great, period!
So like, are you just willfully ignoring the fact that Ki Adi Mundi was like 100% wrong? Like thats the entire fucking point of the prequel trilogy. The Jedi were arrogant and blind to the fact that they had the most powerful Sith Lord of their time walking their halls, sitting in an office across from them and using them as pawns in a war he orchestrated.
The entire point of this fight is explained very succinctly by Qimir, his identity as a Sith was recklessly revealed, so all who know must now die. Thats how the secret is kept, he's going to kill them all.
Like nitpick all you want but pulling the ol' "THEY BROKE THE CANON HURRR" doesn't work when we already know the Jedi were wrong, the Sith were clearly not "extinct for over a millenia" When we *know* that Bane, Tenebrous, Plagueis, Sidious, Maul and Tyrannus existed. We're literally shown two sith lords at the beginning of Phantom Menace.
As for your repeated "haha they're spinning their lightsabers, how silly of them"
Like did you watch the prequel films? Anakin and Obi Wan repeatedly spin and flourish their sabers for no reason, hilariously so during the duel on Mustafar. Jedi haven't had to fight Lightsaber wielding enemies in centuries, they're rigid, structured, following rules of combat/rules of engagement that their enemy, a Sith, is not beholden to.
I mean, come on! Sidious literally kills 3 Jedi masters in the course of 11 seconds in ROTS. (Sure it's fleshed out in the book more and it was done this way due to Ian McDiarmids age) Like they literally stand there and die, Jedi *Council* Masters.
Ur so right king this os the only rational and common sense comment ive seen here
I also agree with this. These are the comments I'm looking for. If a show is bad yes ridicule it yes I could care less. More so after what they did to the sequels. But if it does something well then it also deserves credit. The media has a way of fueling hate trains one person or many come up with a hot take and then you have all the other muppets repeating the same thing blindly. its excessive.
the fightscene was not better than the phantom menace, but it was really well
What I'm saying. I hate this series as much as the next guy but the fight was very good.
I just wish it wasn't soo fuckin dark. The location ruins it and its hard asf to see it.
agree man, it was not bad.
Darth Snape headbutted a lightsaber like a chad.
@@xSharpW Ive not watched it i checked out the fight was pretty good much better than Blade connects and look at each other for 1 minute.
had like 7 battles this chapter and you focused only on the 2 bad parts and they didn't all attack him at the same time because he pushed them even though they fell on him like 4 and he was fighting well against them and the sabers went off and on because of a material that makes That's canon you should know and to remind you, 4 jedis went to kill palpatine and 3 of the council, the best ones did nothing while they put up with it for a while is that what bothers me is that when something is done well they don't give it credit but when there is something wrong It's easier to say it's garbage.
I think one thing some may forget is Yord said it himself. His movements are unpredictable and essentially nothing they ever trained for so any type of "that was bad" during the fights can really be chalked up to they were probably scared as hell lmao
The power of negativity, it's the new standard for Star Wars. Anyone who's like this clown is no Star Wars fan if all you do is criticize a new project after forcing yourself to watch it, even tho you said before it aired it would be bad 🤡
@@azzee029my guy never generalize people it's always stupid. But yes I agree somewhat at least that he seems overly nitpicky
Using the force to pull a second fighter into his lightsaber...me: that's the good stuff😍
I agree. It had some pretty brutal deaths. Stuff you'd really expect a Sith to do.
That was far and away the best saber play since ROTS. Show is ass but that episode was genuinely entertaining. Thats the darkest ive seen starwars get. If ep 1-4 were anything like that we wouldnt be complaining as much
Slow build. Liked the first two, ep 2 secind best so far. Ep 4 weakest and ep five chef's kiss. This is normal for an episodic show with different directors on each episode there will be different directing
@Andalaeknir86 not a fan of slow build when the episodes are weekly and only 20ish min after intros recaps and credits. Slow builds can work with hour long ep not this. Should be released weekly 3 at a time
This is the best choreography in any Star Wars live show. And definitely better than the choreography of Sidious vs the Jedi Masters in Episode III. But Theory is so just consumed into his hate narrative that he cannot appreciate what this episode gave us.
For me, idk if it beats out ep 3 (since that’s the benchmark for lightsaber fights for me), but this fight is definitely up there for sure, at least on par or almost on par. Far better than the OT early styles of fighting and leagues better than any other Disney fight, sequels included. It’s a pain when Theory, with the influence he has, immediately dogs the choreography when if this was Luke killing Sith disciples or Anakin during order 66, he’d be drooling all over it.
Wake up
It’s been years and this theory dude still complains endlessly about Nick Gillard not being involved.
Jesus, some of the best fights for years in SW and SWT says only Nick Gillard is good......ffs if only Palpys fight was this good against Mace and the 3 masters.......that was hot trash
A reaction built on bad faith spite
I don’t get why he’s watching this show? There’s no enjoyment in his eyes.
at this point its not about enjoyment
Yeah! I don't get it either.
He didn't even show any reaction that the show killed 2 Main Characters.
I get that he has no attachment to Yord and Jecki but atleast have the "Wow! I didn't expect they'll kill a Main Character this soon."
@@01Danni10 They aren't really main characters though, they are side characters. You need character development or something to make people care about them enough to make their deaths any different than any of the other Jedi's that got killed otherwise it's just another character you had no investment in getting killed off. Acolyte is no Game of Thrones, and Yord and Jecki are no Ned Stark.
@@chrismcintyre5445 I know. But what I mean is they're like part of a Main Cast.
I know the Main Characters is really Osha and Sol but Jecki and Yord were important characters too.
Honestly! Out of the 4 of the Characters who put up a good fight against Qimir.
I like Jecki the most!
I don't mind if she would die honestly in this Season but I was kinda expecting her to maybe die in Episode 8.
I just didn't expect her to die this soon. ☹
1:33 You clearly did not watch the whole goddamn video
Say what you want about the show but the choreography was sick. Also, this is just the middle of the show, there's for sure gonna be another fight towards the end. Maybe that's what the creators meant was gonna be a better fight than the prequels? I doubt it, but to be fair there should be more fights to come.
The hate is flowing hard through the cynics these days.
Come on bro, we know the show is absolutely horrific, but it might just have the best fight choreography in Disney Star Wars
Yeah but solely cause there is not a lot of competition
Yea I’m ngl I still agree with Theory most of the time but it feels like he says all choreography sucks because he only wants Nick Gillard choreography.
@@pinheadlarry8688For sure. It gives off the same type of energy as those people that only watch Dragonball or Naruto or any shonen fighting anime for the fighting and not the story.
@@itsallgone5077Who is watching Dragon Ball for the story? 😂 Ever since Z, the story has legitimately been:
New villain appears who is stronger than everyone
Heroes train for set amount of time and unlock new transformations
The most powerful transformation beats the new villain in the end
Rinse Repeat
@@andrewwilson9123 Yes, but that’s not what it originally was. If someone has never seen DBZ and only wants to watch it for the fights, then that obviously isn’t the best mindset to have. The story is wayyy better than the fights. But hey, I guess some people only care about seeing cool action shit despite them saying they truly care for the story.
We are back to getting stabbed by a light saber actually kills someone.
cause it hit organs.
I'm really disappointed in you, Theory. That was a truly great lightsaber fight, probably one of the best we have seen in Star Wars.
This is how the fights should be in the Old Republic era if they ever create that.
Gotta give credit where credit is due…the light saber fights were sick and I’m glad they had the balls to kill those characters. The writing and character development was still shit.
Especially head bumps deflecting lightsabers, people standing around instead of attacking at once etc.
I've heard the same things about the throne room fight in TLJ. People see flashy stuff and scream that it's the best thing they've ever seen, despite how poorly choreographed it is.
@@duhotatoday3277the headbutting works because his helmet is likely made using cortosis, which is rare but it is canon.
@@duhotatoday3277 the Helmet and the bracers were made out of a very rare metal called Cortosis, Cortosis can withstand the blow of a lightsaber and briefly short out its blade. It's in Legends and is canon.
@@SpaceAmbientkilled soms Padawan was heartbreaking. I liked her character so much and the ither dude didn't like him but started to grow on me.
Star wars theory, I agreed with you on every episode except this one. This was straight fire and the choreography was lit. It was closer to the old republic video game trailers than anything we’ve had so far. The prequels were great but this episode showed how it can be when you use the force and the lightsaber in unison instead of straight lightsaber or force. I think those livestreams with mauler and that other dude had changed this channel and not for the better. We get a great episode and you’re just nitpicking it. Not a good look tbh
it looked alright but never compare it to the old republic. nothing comes close to the old republic.
You’re wrong, dude. The fight was at the same quality of a fight as Rey and Kylo in Snoke’s chamber. You can see the other jedi just not attacking… it’s just lame
i have no clue why you guys keep holding on to sw so desperately. why bother with mediocre stuff? i completely gave up on sw when the mandalorian came out. i was gripped by the hype but this show was so incredibly boring. cgi luke didnt impress me either. dont you get it guys? as long as you keep coming back disney will give you nothing but forgettable shows and even more forgettable characters. they spat out way to much always sticking to the basically same timeline. they wont create something new or lead us to unexplored timeperiods. GIVE UP
youll only get disappointed
@@antonpayne919 a wise perspective. Very true
@@catalinpopa8908 One key difference there - the Snoke chamber fight was slow as all get out.
There were openings here, but the movements were fast enough to where it doesn't draw as much attention to them. Plus, one could argue the Jedi were shaking with how aggressively Qimir was coming at them and being overly cautious.
One vs many is never realistic, but if you're gonna do it, this was a very decent attempt. Everything else about the show is utter garbage, though, but at least Disney finally figured out how to do a cool looking fight scene.
Great episode. The dark side has clouded Theory’s judgement. The show has its flaws and its high points. Just enjoy for what it is and don’t think every frame needs criticism 🎉
The irony that this is 100% accurate is quite striking.
This was a great review by theory, I think the dark side has closed your judged. Sure his critics has flaws and it's high points . Just enjoy his review for what it is and don't nitpick his every opinion.
Just consume the product😋
@@TitusAndromadonmy guy the dark side is hate and anger and the fear of losing things. Does this sound familiar
@@duhotatoday3277just hate the product. You can consume a product without paying you do know that right
the phantom Menace fight wasn’t even all that obi wan and Qui gon take turns to attack maul there’s a seen where qui gon is attacking maul and obi wan is just standing there at the ending fight obi wan and maul just stand there they are hardly moving there lower body thats a common issue with the prequel fights they just kinda stand there not move around
When you make you expectations so low you find nothing but negativity to then talk about. Literally all this is a guy who’s got nothing but negativity.
thats how he makes his living but he wont admit that
" Literally all this is a guy who’s got nothing but negativity." It sounds like your expectations are so low, you find nothing but negativity to then comment about.The irony. No wonder some of you still defend this stuff. No matter HOW illogical it becomes.
Yep, Unsubscribed to him it's like an echo chamber of negativity frome these folks
@@ajm3578 no it’s not illogical to say that this is nothing but negativity to a show that he has already written off. He set the low bar for expectations. I keep an open mind on anything Star Wars as fan should. If you go into something to just find the things you don’t like and super focus on them that’s on the individual not me or you. Having a constant echo chamber of negativity is where it becomes dull and repetitive.
@@BenTanner92 You misunderstood my last sentence. "No matter HOW illogical it becomes." *It* being Disney Star Wars. If you enjoy it, good for you. We're trying to state problems we genuinely have. What we get in response seems to be whatever anyone can try and grasp at desperately to dismiss it. Which in turn makes the situation worse.
Man’s so invested in his own narrative, stay tuned for bricks & screws part 2
I was not the biggest fan of the show so far but holy shit, this episode gave us the best lightsaber action in any live action Star Wars show so far. If they do something great we should be able to give them credit for that instead of having childish bias.
@THEINVISIBLEWARRIORR its a 1v8, and its executed much better than both the throne room scene and palpatines fight against the 4 jedi
@THEINVISIBLEWARRIORR Yeah, and if I look closely I bet with you I could trash on literally every lightsaber fight or action scene at all we had in Star Wars yet. But since you already started with calling me a bot I guess I can put you in the childish bias category
It was better than Kenobi's fights that's for sure.
Choreography and stunt team did well and didn't phone it in.
Does it save this show?
eeeh.
No no no, only hate on Star Wars Bald Guy’s channel - it’s good for views.
It was a good lightsaber fight. But the reality is, all the other ones since Revenge of the Sith have been pretty bad. Obi-wan show was pretty rough. Vader Dancing with Reva, Obl-wan throwing Rocks. Then you had the Ahsoka battles with very slow movements. The Rey and Kylo fights were not good. Luke didnt even fight Kylo...etc.
“Watch she’s gonna be more formidable than all these Jedi masters”…..a few moments later…..”yo all she does is run away smh”……can’t win LOL
EXACTLY!!! Dude's just hating to hate
Choreography was cool. I get hating the show but at least be honest.
How can an opinion be dishonest. It was done at night obstructed by the trees and went on for way too long. It's okay if you like it. It's okay that I don't. I don't think you're dishonest if you like it.
He was
absolutely man, the fights were fine and the sith dude was fine also, besides the mask
not enough to make the show good. You are clutching at straws and you know it
@@tiza9084
What are you talking about 😂
We just praise, where praise is deserved, we are not defending this show lol
Cringe bro
You want to hate this show, you don’t give it a chance even though this choreography is the best since episode 3. The series is mid but you hate everything about it even tho the fights are incredible. Being a dick because you can be.
He's to obsessed with Nick gillard that's why. He loves him.
@@SkepticalSardaukar indeed it was. To be honest, it's better than Mace Windu vs Palpatine. And the Jedi
Yeah, retneys Holocron, star wars meg and generation tech sre more nuanced snd appreciative and better tale to these new shows, instead of acting like lan child cause some minor things change and they throw a fit of hate and negativity rather than actually enjoy something that is decent, so far which is due to different directors each episode and it's enjoyable. My 13 year old brother loves acolyte. And star wars is mostly for kids. So that's all that matters. People say it's stupid but will defend lucas equally if not worse dialogue writing, depsite that they would shit on lucas had he done films today too. Or if prequels were coming out today they would be hated same a sacolyte especially if internet, reactors and such were a thing
@@Andalaeknir86 honestly seeing all the hate and negativity makes me not want to make edits on my channel sometimes and I try to spread positivity on my channel with edits, and seeing my once favorite star wars RUclipsr turn his back on star wars and join the fanon Menace is sad. And in all honesty all the hate and negativity, is somewhat making me feel frustrated and mentally frustrated. I love Star Wars and seeing it like this is honestly terrible.
@@A21-EDITS21Just proves to me that theory knows nothing about good fight choreography.
This is the best live action lightsaber battle we’ve seen since Disney takeover man
I liked the fighting scene, something I did not hate. And glad to see lightsabers are effective now. Darth Maul would be proud.
I love how this guys name is sw wars theory but he does not seem to know Star Wars lore? Maybe he should just stick to legends.
The fact he pretends to not be impressed by the action shows his bias im sorry. He goes into every episode wanting to hate it, he’s not a valid critic.
Sure bud.
Nah your just pleased with anything waving around a lightsaber. They had so many opportunities to end the fight scene but it was dragged on
agreed, this is much better than a lot of the lightsaber fights we have seen to date. Definately better than the palpatine fight in his office where 3 out of the 4 jedi just stood there and let palpatine stab them lmao
Actually inclined to agree against theory this once, I agree the story is hot crap but it was pretty cool seeing cortosis brought to screen and used against the jedi. I think the action scenes were decent and Darth Smiles fought dirty like he should have, but that's still just shining a golden turd.
Thats because according to him lightsaber fights can only be good if Nick Gillard is doing the fights which is his biased prequel opinion. I like the idea that lightsaber fights are different depending on the trilogy and show even if I don't like the style that they always have to offer but this style of fighting with brutality of it and the mix of kung fu action is something I love and want more of. Too bad I don't care for any of the characters though lol
Bad dialogue and amazing fights? Like a true prequel lol
"What am I, some sort of Acolyte?" -The Acolyte
This guy is mentally ill. He lives in an alternate reality where he's the lore master of star wars.
People just love to just blindly hate. This episode wasn't actually that bad.
People just blindly love atrocious writing and acting.
@@str1xt Reminds me of the prequels :)
the story is turd dust but the fight is actually really good. even better than some prequel stuff
Idk who they hired to do the Choreography for this episode, but it’s a lot better than anything else Disney has done. Nowhere near prequel level, but still pretty entertaining.
Oh really? Remember when palpatine killed 3 Jedi council members who were just standing there doing nothing. Great choreography there don’t you think?
@windu2472 Yeah there is a lot of really bad choreography in the prequels that people conveniently ignore lol. This fight wasn't anakin vs obiwan or maul level, but it was better than most other prequel fights in my opinion.
it is MILES better than prequel fights
I think the deleted fights from episode 3 - in particular the Palpatine fight - were better than the ones we got. The choreography peaked with episode 1 and kinda went downhill. dooku’s stuff was nice though
@@windu2472Still looked far better than this Bullshit 😂 figth between Mace and Palps was still lit af. I would take any Figth scene from the Prequels over Acolyte Episode 5.
I still think Obi vs Vader in Episode 4 was the most believable lightsaber fight scene. No turning around like a dancer, fighting back to back and only try to hit the air or blade next to your body or wild swinging like having a real mechanical sword. Only pure "I have the most deadly weapon in hand and how do you want to get me when I get you first" scene ever. You dont need any force while cutting through flesh, just slightly touch something and it will just burn and fall off instantly would be the mindset with this weapon in hand (first hit is almost a win)
The jedi killed all the witches, that's obviously where it's headed.
No you have to admit this scene was incredibly well choreographed - the dialogue and music is just sooo bad it ruins all of it
I think we've lost him to being pessimistic and negative. Notice has he hasn't posted a breakdown yet just reactions, all he's doing now is trying to drive traffic. Whomever is managing him or his brand is probably encouraging this...or he's become so jaded now that he literally can't help but just fan the flames of pessimism.
There’s well choreographed moments, but overall it’s really rough. The geography and location of characters is all over the place. Not to mention their skills and use of the force fluctuating according to the needs of the plot.
@@aliciouskrossoh no. 😏
You can't really see the fight because of the way it's shot. If you notice as well there are many opportunities where Jedi could have killed with Sith, but because of the poor choreography the jedi just stand or attack the air. The fight was fast but not well choreographed.
@@Keveremberyes. It's also filmed pretty badly. And the soundstage looks so cheap and fake🤣
You need to include his reaction when they said "You turned her against me"
Haha I heard that and was like Leo pointing at the T.V. Pandering AF but whatever
If theory can't enjoy this fight scene hes not going to enjoy any star wars content we get. seems more like hes bitter about the negative press "white males" have been getting. which I agree is BS..but come on man.. been watching him since day one. supported him through everything. but its getting miserable to watch star wars content with him. especially when all he does is read negative feedback in his chat, which is absolutely drowning in hatred for all things disney star wars.
buckle up everyone, because this is the star wars we have now. if you dont like it, why create more content around it?
The fight coreos are way too marvel and eay too "OP", really it was Jet Lee vs Jackie Chan with sabers.
I usually always agree with Theory but the fight in this was definitelyan upgrade from the other trash we got from Disney. He's just probably already set into how he feels and is going to nick pick everything. The show should've started like this.
Best episode of the season! 2/10 maybe 3/10
What!? 😂 Be real. More like 7/10
@@Samuel_S_Hirsch I’m being for real. 3/10 is the absolute highest I can go for this episode, but that’s much better than the previous episodes
3/10 the most 😂
You guys hate everything the show isn’t even that bad it pisses me off episode 3 sucked the rest was fine
That's called damning with faint praise.
I like how lightsabers always make sounds, but when Yord is using it as a flashlight for a whole day, it's silent, it's probably some low power flashlight mode, when he wants to turn it on, he has to press button 5 times and find correct mode.

This was cool. Period.
I feel like the show will and can not make anything do to make this guy happy.
Agreed. I don’t think anything can make him happy at this point. he will find something to complain about

I find it funny how Darth Smilo killed 7 jedi with ease but then gets carried by bugs…
Yeah the bugs should've swarmed him and covered their escape or something more plausible. The bug scene really took me out of it
Yep
@@scrubzone4367 you know the like force ability dominate mind work animals right aswell as force users can talk to amnial aslo the turned in favor of sal because the good darth was taking unawares and Saul gains his resolve.
At any given time those lightsabers went out, they should’ve been using the force in some capacity. Like switching to your sidearm.
That's a really good point, i didn't think about that. One excuse i can think of (at least the first time it happened) is them being so confused and stunned by it that it unbalances them, therefore they don't use the force.
Also, they did not fight against other lightsaber users for a long time, so yeah they maybe train in the academy, but they don't have real fights against other lightsaber users.
So they are also very afraid of him too.
He is switching through many fighting styles, uses a Cortosis glove/helmet to disable their lightsabers, and he gives a damn about rules.
We see that these Jedi are sticking to rules, and so it's very hard for them, to fight something like him.

But yeah, it's one thing for Padawans to practice duel during peace times compared to fighting someone as aggressive as Qimir. I remember there being a point about Ahsoka's training getting a massive boost due to her often being on battlefields in a war.
@@stryfer1989 I hope they prove me wrong, but i feel like that’s a question the showrunners won’t have an answer for.
The Nick Gillard obsession is really getting annoying. You love him we get it. Get married to him. 💍💍
I liked the fights in this episode. They were more viceral vs elegance. The Jedi of this era wouldn't know how to deal with someone like this.
Is headbutting a lightsaber a canon now?
Only with special armor but yes
Yes with the light saber resistant metal
SW Theory: The lightsaber fights sucks because it isnt prequel-like
Acolyte: 20 mins of prequel-style lightsaber fight
SW Theory: Its meh
Me: Bruh
Can’t even hate, the fight choreo was insane
He sais its obvious about it being qimir if only the jedi got told that sideous is the sith lord. Oh yeah rhats right he did
So cringe to forcefully look like you’re hating a show as much as possible. The fake laughing, snide remarks and purposefully having lifeless eyes and an annoyed look on your face is embarrassing. You don’t have to like it, you can critique it, but doing this is loser behavior.
I thought the fight was really awesome! Honestly, this armor is what Kylo Ren should have gotten, and it was used creatively. The show still sucks and breaks canon though - good action can't save bad acting or writing.
Listen, you can not like the series, but when you literally highlight only the negative and look beyond the good you're just a hater. Because there is better fighting than what you've seen in the original trilogy. You're not fairly critiquing at thus point. You just hate everything. Like stop watching it dude. 😂
His hate boner for the show is so hard that he's even pissing on the choreography even though it's actually really good. Its very kinetic and dynamic and its the most brutal ive seen Star Wars be with the lightsaber fights. Like, come on man just stop watching it
My prediction. Trinity is the Sith master. Last episode will be revealed she killed the witches and faked her death. Smilo Ren is her apprentice. Always 2 there are.
Look I’m republican and a avid racist but this show isn’t as bad as yall make it out to be😂😂😂it’s actually hilarious seeing yall cry
Lmao if it was anakin or a prequel character with the same choreography he would be crying
This was the best episode so far mainly because of the fights. The story is losing me more and more with each episode though. I do have to say I think it was really ballsey to kill off main characters like the way they did but unfortunately this show only has 8 episodes and we didn't get enough time to develop those characters before they died so I didn't feel anything for them other than just being shocked with the way they just got rid of them out of no where. The fights are really just amazing in this show like there are a lot of problems to point out but the fights is something people can't really deny is bad unless the fans that don't like the fights prefer the OT style of fighting or are PT stans and the only good fights can only come from Nick Gillard which isn't true. I mainly prefer OT style of lightsaber combat mainly the style and pace of Return of the Jedi lightsaber fighting style but this show doesn't look overly flashy like the prequels with it's lightsaber combat (most of the time) and I love the Kung Fu integration into the fight style. I hope a lot of future Star Wars projects are like the fights in The Acolyte cause I really like this stylistic choice.
I agree with everything you say. Definitely a good episode finally, with some great lightsaber combat, which is probably the best we've seen in Disney Star Wars. And like you, I was impressed that they actually killed off relatively big-characters. It made the action have weight and impact, but yeah.. it's a shame the story isn't better, so the characters deaths were more relevant. Definitely lacked impact. Same with the reveal of the Sith being Qimir. It was too obvious to have any real emotional response to it. Still, it was a good episode, and I think you have to give credit where credit is due, we finally got to see some nice lightsaber duels.
The Acolyte genuinely has good choreograph fight scenes, definitely not Phantom Menace as claimed but still serviceable. It’s just disappointing knowing that it’s apart of a plot and characters nobody really cares for.
Yep I agree. Story can be lame at times but these fights were truly excellent and Killing off most of the characters is pretty balsy and I'm guessing they are all going to die in the end, im saying it now the last scene will be Smilo Ren bowing to his master probably.
@@brucewayne9699 Yeah it was too obvious and I don't think he makes a good bad guy either. What was the whole point in hiding his identity too like the whole thing was a little strange. I thought he was cool while he was in the mask though and I loved the way he used his helmet as a weapon
@@___Snake___ I have a feeling Sol won't die or at least thats what I hope cause he's the only character I like and care for. They will have to come up with a good explanation as to why he isn't episode 1 though. The green bald head lady I think will die or end up being bad.
I may be in the minority on this but I'm not too fond of the Live Action video game lightsaber choreography . It's just seemed so rushed and straight to the shock and awe value. The Phantom Menace choreography was art. This should of had a Metallica soundtrack in the background. Also someone that powerful just casually never gets felt through the force. So much of this story lacks details and doesn't make sense. I can't even tell which Jedi is even the strongest anymore.
Did you not watch the prequel trilogy? The one where the ultimate sith lord hides in plain sight of the jedi? Also the hierarchy is pretty straight forward If you pay attention. Sol is top dog and he answers to the bald green chick. Whatever her name is. So I assume she's the grandmaster
He doesn’t even give props even when they do something cool, his agenda is lame asf
Most epic Disney lightsaber battle ever
Definitely the most epic! Not sure if it's my favorite though. I really like the Ahsoka vs Baylan fight and the Vader vs Reva fight so I think I might like those more. Gotta really think about it though
How did you not react with the dark side force healing
I thought that was strange. I wonder how this will fit in because it's not something they can do? So I guess well see what happens
This guy is just hating for the sake of it at this point
Im going to be honest. This series already broke canon in episode 5. The writing is atrocious. But I have to give them a point for the light saber fights. Of course, its not even close to the prequels. But it was far more creative than the sequels. It was fast and it had some choreography , the sequels did not have that. I also think it was better than the fights in Ahsoka(except the training between Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka).But besides that, the series Will go on down hill.
It will go down hill cos that’s what you’ve decided
Show is shit but u downright jus hating too much man💀😭
"Who is more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?"
weird this channel's page is giving a 404
I know who the Sith is. He is one of the witches but changed gender to hide her identity. It is so clear to me now.
Did you guys recognise the Kylo Ren theme during Qimir's scenes?
THEORY and his FOLLOWERS are the biggest haters in Star Wars. They HATE everything that is not from the OT and prequels and a lil bit of Filoni involvement (like Mando, but even the mando has a lot of references). Think about it and recollect, he will only approve "slightly" of a series/movie if there are cameos and references from the old movies. That's it, everything else he will criticize first..then if he sees the fandom likes it then he will comply lmfao
Don't get me wrong the previous episode were freaking terrible but goddammit give credit when it's due.
I mean in this episode he couldn't even admit ATLEAST one of those fighting sequences are decent or even good. and AGAIN because it is not Nick Gillard who choreographed it, he will not approve of it lmfao.
There you go, read him like a children's book.
Btw BLIND WAVE > THEORY
Easily better. The phantom menace seemed too staged. There is an extremely raw feeling when watching this fight. And you keep mentioning how oh they could’ve killed him multiple times but they were spinning their lightsabers. Do you think maybe the Jedi have become too complacent with their galactic dominance that when they actually have a true formidable opponent they look good to a point like they know what they’re doing, but equally as bad because they have barley had to put the skills to use. Also think of it like this, they’re training in a temple to be the good guys and keepers of the peace, meanwhile the sith guy is a trained killer.
Easily the best lightsaber battle outside of the prequels
The fight scene wasn't prequel level, but it was decent enough. Sure, multiple opponents vs one guy is unrealistic, yet movies still love to do that. I think it was handled well. Qimir was aggressive, quick and swinging in all directions with precision, so it's somewhat believable inexperienced Jedi would be too defensive. Plus, the pace was quick enough that I didn't have time to zero in on openings (unlike in the sequels...).
They haven't fought a sity since the darth bane rules of two and they thought there were no sith didn't even consider the possibility if sith
It shits all over most of the prequel fights. It’s way better than all of AOTC fights better than all emperor fights in ROTS
Me seeing Jecki getting stabbed 3 times by Qimir:
"Eh, she'll survive.."
The whole pulling your weapon thing. Sol had him dead to rights and even as a Jedi had every right to take the Siths life. Some piss poor writing right there.
Sol was close to tge dark side by giving in to his anger rage which was refreshing to see
Choreography wasn't anywhere near the Prequel Trilogy,wich the
Choreography should be as close to the prequel style combat,but, we're talking about Disney Starwars, Wich is Not Starwars to Me
Idk, I love the prequels but some fights in prequels feel more like a dance than actual fight. *cough* Anakin vs Dooku in ep 2
@@danielmedjedovic7068
Truth,lol can't argue with that,it did feel like a dance, Yoda vs Dooku made up for it at least
@@TurnedAgainstMe66 Indeed, Yoda vs Dooku made it up for it. Its just when Anakin had two lightsabers against Dooku, the fight turned into a dance xD.

@@billwilliams328 I know bro, but think how they do it. They say they can create life with the “thread” and that darth mom was the only one missing amongst the dead
What’s funny is he immediately asks everyone if the fight was better than Phantom Menace, lol. He’s wild for even thinking that. The fights in this show are very good, especially this episode, and I’m just glad that’s something we can all agree with. Also, the fight wasn’t better than Phantom Menace but it was certainly better than the one in Revenge of the Sith where those 2 Jedi just stood there and let themselves get stabbed by Palpatine. That beginning fight in this episode is how they should have handled that.
This guy a hater at this point
The fights: 😍😍😍
Everything else: 💀
Wait did the guy who said Anakin Skywalker blew up the DEATH STAR die from having his neck snapped?
Yup😂thats what he gets for saying something stupid😅
@@kylebird813 He also said that there is NO GOOD OR EVIL in Stars Wars. So what happened is NOT BAD
They gonna get him a bandage and some chicken soup. He'll be back episode 6
bro hung out with the anti-woke shills so much that he can't even appreciate the sabers duels anymore
There's plenty of positive echo chambers you can find to protect yourself buddy
Bro even if You don't like The Show you got to admit The Lightsaber Choreography was Freaking Sick.
I really enjoyed this episode, especially the amazing fight scene. I think it's important to remember that Star Wars is not meant to be perfect, it ain't the Godfather trilogy. It's a sci-fi fantasy and is supposed to be fun and entertaining. It's strange to me that some people nitpick every little detail. Admittedly, I didn't like the first four episodes and I'm not a fan of KK and her woke agenda.
So you are basically admitting that it's not nitpicking, but atrocious writing, acting, lore breaking, canon destroying, lesbian space witch driven drivel.
@@str1xt That's not the nitpicking I'm talking about, that's just bad stuff.
@@str1xt I'm not defending the show; I'm just saying that the fight was really good. The rest of the show is bad.

Dude you just can’t critic this show without bringing up the past is it better than this movie scene phantom menace bruh stop living in the past. You so nostalgic you kill the whole vibe of what this is. This show is bad but you so focused on phantom menace you can’t rate this garbage without bringing up the PAST and it is truly annoying. And yes I am leaving now I thought this episode you would just critic it but everything you complain about is because of the PAST no for what this show is worth. It’s so much you could’ve pointed out but you stay in the past. This ain’t George Lucas no more and he ain’t buying it back so LET IT GO
I'mma be honest. The lightsaber fights ( apart from the one where like 6 jedi take turns ) Were pretty well done. I Liked the choreography. Is it better than Phantom Menace, no but still pretty good. I also loved the Sith guys outfit when he lost the helmet and cloak. 😁
As much as I hate the Acolyte, I will give praise to the choreography of the lightsaber dueling. Probably the best duels to come out of Disney Star Wars next to those of the Ahsoka series. It’s just that the writing still sucks and I don’t see it getting any better
We literally saw Sol read Mae’s mind like a book the day before (in the narrative) but now he can’t even tell it’s her? This show STINKS!
oh yeah. So he almost felt to Dark side, he lost all his companions who were masacred, but yep... i guess you are always calm and focused right? :) Anyway we didnnt see next episode.. so what the heck.. it can be shown in next episode lol ... ppl tend these days onyl to hate and dont see anythign else...

I'm still not enjoying this series. But i didn't mind the fight. It's didn't to prequels and different to OT. But even if i enjoyed this fight still not enjoying the rest of series or episode and obviously plot wise and story around the fight not great in my opinion.
