The Acolyte is a freaking dumpster fire. Kennedy, Filoni and Headland just napalmed 99% of Star Wars fans.
Uh it's definately not 99%. I'm liking it and a lot of my friends are too. Where did you get your numbers? Even 85% of critics like it. only 15% of fans hate it. Do you even Math?
@@ichigen511 you mean 15% of critics dislike it. Maybe you should proof read instead of worrying about math.
The writing is secondary to political agenda being forced into everything. Everything has anti-straight anti-male anti-white messaging. As soon as you recognize it, you'll see the effects of DEI has on storytelling. "its about power and whose allowed to wield it".
In Captain Marvel, carol assaults a motorcyclist and steals his vehicle for telling her to smile.
In Indiana Jones, Harrison Ford gets upstaged by Phoebe at nearly every opportunity to show that she's better than him.
In Starwars Episode VII, Harrison Ford gets upstaged by Rei when she "bypasses the compressor" showing that she knows more about his own ship that won an intervallic smuggling race in.
In Starwars Episode VIII, after Poe defies orders to destroy the dreadnaught, effectively saving the rebel forces, Leia slaps and demotes him.
In Peter Pan Wendy slaps Peter Pan (the embodiment of childhood) for being upbeat after surviving an encounter with hook.
In She Hulk, She Hulk demeans Bruce Banner saying she's better than him because she deals with stressful situations "infinitely more than him" putting down all the suffering he has encountered in his life. The entire show is just man-hate.
In Wanda Vision, Wanda enslaves an entire town and the (white male) cop is portrayed as the villain for trying to rescue the citizens because they have guns (against a super-powered villain). Also, the script tries to forgive her by having Monica Rambeau say "they'll never know what you sacrificed for them" (a black woman forgiving a white woman for enslaving an entire town).
In Ant Man and the Wasp, Scott Lang's own daughter demeans him at his own dinner table for "not having done enough after saving the universe" negging him and effectively discounting the sacrifices he and his friends made to protect everyone.
In Wish, the king is possessed by an evil book, and the queen doesn't even try to save her husband. The traitor is (of course) the white man.
I'm queer. Is the way God made me "political". Am I an "agenda". Do you even logic?
Call me crazy, but I really believe that the audience score on rotten tomatoes is going to drop down into the single digits for “The Acolyte”. It’s that bad. And for them to say that the audience is just being racist and sexist for not liking the show is just absurd. This is just a shaming tactic that they are using hoping that people will get in line with their type of Star Wars shows that they are creating. These shows are bad and the general audience is letting you know that. There’s nothing racist or sexist about letting you know that your show sucks. Instead of doing better, they just want to double down on blaming the audience instead of blaming themselves for creating such a poor quality show. It’s so bad that I am actually longing for the days of “The Book of Boba Fett”. When it comes to Star Wars shows it seems that they are actually getting worse. The problem that exist in my humble opinion is that you have a leadership in Disney and in Hollywood in general that wants to push certain agendas and these agendas are more important than actually making money. I feel that the only way things can get better is if you get rid of all of upper management in these corporations like Disney and start over fresh with people that actually want to make great movies and shows that the majority of the General Public can enjoy. But what do I know? I talk in third person.
Perfectly put Brogu!! It has NOTHING to do with racism or misogyny and everything to do with the fact that it is not a GOOD show. plain and simple. If they had actual fans writing and directing I think they would have an amazing show on their hands... unfortunately they have a writer whose never seen Star Wars and Leslye Headland who wants to use the platform to work through her personal life and Kathleen Kennedy who has a personal vendetta against George Lucas. That all adds up to the WORST Star Wars show ever.
I totally agree that it will get down to the single digits for the audience score because there will probably be something even worse in later episodes.
I bet tht would make you so happy to see something that everyone can get together and hate with all their evil hearts. That would get you off wouldn't it? I'm queer. Do you hate my existance? Do i belong in hell? Did God make me for some 'agenda"? Was it my choce tyo be attracted to whatever it is that i'm attracted to? Fo you thinkk I wanted to be spit on all my life and hated for being alive? Was that my choiuce?
Amandla Stenberg has never been told "No" before in her entire rich n spoiled life.
I wonder why Disney's PR team doesn't get blamed for the bad reviews before the show came out
I had to look. Audience ratings for _Plan 9 From Outer Space_ on Rotten Tomatoes is 45%.
Haha that's funny, well I guess it comes down to being bad bud amusing vs bad and not amusing.
This all started with episode 3 of the show. The canon breaking combined with that very lazy, awful chant put Star Wars into a low low place for a lot of fans. We felt insulted by the new force created character and the chant scene was just something so awful, it offended many fans. And finally, it’s a very heavy handed DEI push as the icing on this shit cake. That combo has angered a lot of fans deeply.
Disney Star Wars = Disney buys the Barbie franchise, kills off Barbie, turns Ken into a GI Joe… then blames girls for not buying Barbie toys.
And are surprised when boys don't want them either
I'm convinced that they figured out a way to make money off of all of the review videos on RUclips and everywhere else on social media. Imagine if Disney made money off of every single hate video out there that would make more money than the show. I'm convinced that certain shows they put out are designed to be terrible on purpose to farm rage and they get paid all the way around.
That would make the most sense because otherwise, idk how they're getting any value out of this. It's the most talked about show but not in a positive way
I'm part of whatever percent jumped ship when they first perceived that they were using the Star Wars brand to construct something foreign to a Star Wars fan's connection to the franchise. Like I've posted on other fan sites, this is like Da Vinci painting dogs playing poker over the Mona Lisa. Let these interlopers build their own successful icon and quit deconstructing ours. It is clear they can't. I walked away from the NFL and the NBA and Hollywood. I would walk away from the NHL and if I drank I would have walked away from pi$$ light. My entertainment dollars are for entertainment... I'm not interested in their socially skewed screed. I'm not interested in their assessment of my Character. Mgtow.
On the plus side, you haven't been subjected to some of the swill they've been pumping that's been disguised as star wars and I think a lot of fans are going to join you if they haven't already.
Great take. My wife is a Bridgerton fan. I don’t want them to add a Bad Boys type experience into that show so I can enjoy it at her expense. Why can’t shows just serve an existing target audience consistently?
Exactly its only in these massive fan IPs like Star Wars that these companies have a problem with the core audience. It is what it is. Certain forms of entertainment appeal to different people. Like you said we aren't watching Bridgerton asking what are they doing to make us feel included. We are happy for them to enjoy it.
It's 13 %! Now
Im part of the 90% that didnt watch it, since the trailer told us not to watch it....😂 It was clear from the early leak of the trailer, that story/lore/screenplay take AGAIN a second seat to feminism and girlpower.
🤣yea the show is a mess. At every level it is below average to poor. Story is uncompelling, the cinematography is awful, and the dialog is painful.
@@holdmydualshock its so sad to see. Episode 7 was a fine movie (yeah it kinda was an Episode 4 remake, but hey - I could enjoy it and even liked Ray...).
First two Mando seasons, Rouge One and Andor felt pritty good too. But everything else was a horrible letdown. When the Acolythe was annouced I was hyped as f! I allways found the dark side and Sith in general to be super intriguing. In my mind it could have been peak Star Wars. But then I saw the leaked trailer and knew that this show was not made for SW-fans, but for activists... 🥲
Blaming the core fanbase always works. Always
Ikr! We want to be accused of hatred and bigotry because it encourages us to spend more money
The cope is strong with this one. Until ONE of these articles addresses the legitimate complaints on script, story, acting, plot holes, lore destruction they need to shut up. All the messaging coming from Disney and the Access Media is about race, gender and all that unimportant crap. The audience, you know those you want to part with their money keep time and again pointing out that they are ignoring story, content over pushing their politics and it's SO BLATENT it's ruining their interest in watching it.
New viewer from the Bonebridger crossover. You guys looked interesting so I wanted to check your channel out. Great analysis. I noticed that you didn't mention the bots doing exactly what the review bombers do and act as a balance. The 1.6 or whatever it's down to is actually accurate.
Thanks so much for coming over and checking us out. We had such a nice time on the Bonebridgers channel. All 3 of them are just so nice and easy to talk to and their videos are so good.
That's actually a really good point and something that needs more discussion. We definitely should have added that. It's so easy for the audience score to get dismissed because of "review bombing" but I think the bots are the ones discrediting the platform.
Disney space movie franchise is not star wars. Disney doesn't understand what star wars is.
It’s funny that they chant tolerance when they won’t even tolerate their own fans
Yea classic double think. They should explore why their ideology necessitates Orwellian concepts.
He also lets slip that The Acolyte had a 30% audience rating before any review bombing. So his point is mute, because at no stage did it ever receive anything other than a horrid rating.
Also those thick lightsabers look like glowsticks
Is "The Acolyte " actually worse than the "Star Wars Holiday Special"? Yes, it is.
Why?
People often forget the Star Wars Holiday Special was the first appearance of Boba Fett. Secondly, Star Wars was a new project, so it doesn't break lore!
When you see The Star Wars Holiday Special, it still feels like Star Wars in an odd way. The Acolyte has none of these factors.
It is quite frankly the worst Star Wars project of all time. The only way to enjoy it is to hate watch it like a Rocky Horror Picture Show midnight showing.
I grew up with Star wars and I'm gay and I can't stand the acolyte or anything mediocre Disney has made shows by talentless hacks who have no original ideas and are intellectually bankrupt and also can't act worth a damn. Oh and we know that they hire people based on your look solely and not whether or not you have any talent and it shows in what they've been making
I'm not sure how any unbiased person could watch this and find the story and acting to be anything above - well below average.
Take away the controversy of agendas, racism, whatever...it's simply bad. So bad I feel bad for Master Sol's actor as he is a good endearing actor.
Forbes guy feels like his article was written for clicks and controversy, not truth. All of his points feel more biased fueled then the people he claims are biased.
So disappointed, I'd much rather be celebrating another Andor like show right now. While I don't feel the show quite deserves the level of hate it is getting...it is cringe bad.
You are right it just isn't very good. Though I do like Master Sol and wish he was part of a better show. Definitely agree about the Forbes article. I think the reason so many people seem to be voicing their dislike is because it broke a lot of people who had been lowering their expectations in order to be able to watch some of the star wars shows Disney has been taking liberties with.
I fell asleep in episode two, and I cringed and laughed at episode three. Episode one was good for about 3 minutes until a master Jedi was killed by a 2 inch blade. And why does Mae keep saying “fight with everything you have” or whatever she keeps saying
Because they keep wanting to make this a matrix film rather than Star Wars. Episode 4 really takes the cake with the Mary Poppins sith
gee I never felt embarrassed when I rated the acolyte, and I never felt embarrassed when I canceled my disney plus, just relief when I decided that disney was no longer family-friendly, and no longer could create anything that would appeal to me.
Audience score is the clearest depiction of the truth. The truth is Acolyte falls short on action, scenery, and writing. The best sci-fi writing of fake world comes off as real, that’s why Dune, Star Trek, Lost in Space, West World and a course Star Wars. Andor and Mandalorian allowed audiences to escape with characters that pop in a narrative keeping to the lore, but exploring new viewpoint filled with unexplained environments. One is a warriors journey and the other is how rebels and spy agencies empire battled in the dark. Both have realities anyone can escape with. The Acolyte fails as escape because it looks and sounds cheap with a ridiculous budget. Sadly scene transitions and Jedi babysitter in space solving poorly written mystery murder is not a good storyline. If all it took was actors dressed as Jedi and some sci-fi elements, then anyone could make Star Wars, but that is not the case. It’s the reason why fans are so passionate. Passion is not an embarrassment.
People call a bad show a bad show and the creators call those people bigots. Meanwhile, a very similar show by the same studio with a minority lead is hailed as one of the studio’s best projects ever, and those fans are perfectly fine. Why are fans only bigots when the show is terrible? Also, when you call your remaining fans awful names and accuse them of evil morality, do you expect them to take it easy on you next time? Review bombing isn’t legitimate. I’d love to see the stats on the audience scores. What’s the standard deviation? Anything more than 20% would be insanely unlikely for over 10,000 reviews, so even if we assumed the highest possible standard deviation, even two standard deviations (ie the highest 5% or so of scores) would still only average around 46%. That’s still an awful show. Review bombing has nothing to do with the ratings. The ratings are shit because the show is shit.
Because it has nothing to do with actual bigotry or racism and everything to do with the fact that "we" had the audacity to say the show isn't good. Even though they worked really hard, and put themselves into the show, and are showing authentic lesbian relationships by a lead actor whose not white. For those reasons you're supposed to look past the immersion breaking dialogue, the poor production value, and the misplaced cuts.
The audience score to this show keeps dropping by 1% per episode. Just imagine if it dips all the way down to zero . . .🤔
Well since there are only 4 more episodes left I'm not sure how that would be possible
@@holdmydualshock Yup and I'll be joining you my fellow dualies tomorrow to continue this debate on the franchise will discussing more on Blade and potential video games making real profit.
gold leader, standing by
Its in my top 3 favorite Star Wars shows
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Glad you are enjoying it and always cool to hear other opinions. What are your other 2 favorite shows?
Thor Skywalker did a poll of HIS subscribers and 17% said they liked The Acolyte. So Rotten Tomatoes score of 14% is probably accurate.
"Look at me i mades a star wars guyses" -lezzy blockhead 🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖
I could write a better Star Wars story & it goes a little something like this: There once was a Jedi from Nantucket…
It's soooo bad, I almost like watching it.....but mostly so I understand the awesome bashing reviews
If nothing else it is hilarious. Mary Poppins sith, screaming otters, and lots of unconvincing dialogue
I don’t remember not a once not a single damn time in my life did I ever hear George Lucas complain about how people didn’t like the prequels he just took the criticism in stride like a real artist
That's a good point. I remember him in interviews acknowledging the critisms and dislike for the prequels but I don't remember him attacking or saying they weren't real fans.
EXTREMELY good observation - it just shows how much that George has class
If I remember correctly the most he had was like a deep sigh of a disappointed artist that the world didn’t understand
The acolyte needs lower scores.
The writing is bad and looks cheap.
I have seen fan stories done better in both regards.
There is actual fan fiction on RUclips that has better dialogue and production value.... I don't understand what they did with the 180 million
It’s down to 13% lol
I can think of a worse Star Wars project. The Acolyte is better than the Resistance animated show.
Mace Windu beat Palpatine.
shills love the acolyte
I'm pretty sure they're the ONLY people who do
Happy Junteenth by the way.
Perfectly said you two ❤❤
You poor babies. Star Wars went to shit long before Disney got the rights. To us elders, they’re known as “those stinking prequels.”
I stopped watching on ep 2
You missed the real magic of episode 3 with the lesbian space witches and their new hit song
I guess it’s gonna get second season despite how awful the show is but I guess ratings doing good enough to green lite second season but I don’t know only time will tell plus Amandla Stenberg made a cringe music video a lot of people thinks it has to do with Acolyte but it doesn’t based on 2018 interview with Trevor Noah bout a movie called the hate you give saying comments making white people cry so it resurface the internet people got mad say some comments so she made a video clapping back but she did it in a way became offensive on happy Juneteenth day this definitely not going to help her Acolyte show either
Yea I saw that music video and agree it was pretty embarrassing. Yeah the comments about whites crying was in regard to an entirely different movie.
You know we laugh and joke about these things but her statements certainly didn't have me clutching my pearls.
I think the link between that statement and sw was actually a distraction from the real issues with the show.
I'd actually feeds into the discussion Disney wants to have which is a shouting match about racism and bigotry. Whereas most of us just want to talk about the show and why it is failing as a result of bad writing, poor story telling and a misunderstanding of sw on behalf of Disney.
You are right, none of it is going to do much to change the disappointment in the show.
@@holdmydualshock Yes I also believe its a distraction and now she doing copyright claim on people playing her cringe video which she has this planned out all along the video very distasteful with her shaking her crotch up close on camera I don’t blame the fans for being upset and glad they united to send message not gonna tolerate this bad of writing except the shills love everything Disney puts out so hope this a wake up call to let Disney know they need to do whole a lot better there’s no reason for this show be this bad no reason at all
I’ve watched John Campea video on episode 4 and even he says the show is terrible that’s not way you write a show but as for Grace Randolph clearly you can see she’s on Disney’s payroll shilling hard for this awful show her audience turn on her which is rightfully so very glad the real sw fans come together to speak out I know you guys was laughing especially she was shaken her stuff up close all over the camera in that very cringe video in her mind she thinks it’s sexy but it’s not just cringe like you said it’s a distraction I totally agree 100%
It was awful
The rotten Tomatoes scores are just shill critics pumping up the scores and getting die hard star wars fans to watch and they all hate it and vent their anger with low audience scores. Star Wars fans would probably hate "My Little Pony" but don't review it because it lets every one know it is for young girls.
If Leslie Headland had of made a show about a group of persecuted witches who were engaged in a war with an evil police force who also had fantastic powers, she might have been able to attract an audience who would enjoy that. However by making it Star Wars you only attract people who will hate that and people who might like it will never give it a chance.
I love love love this show! A lot of haters a lot of fake star wars fans! Show isn’t even fine yet… and you guys are complaining
YAY! bringing nerds togethr in HATE!!!!!!! So amazing!!!!!! WOnderful!!!!!!!!!!
