I think the idea of Star Wars needing to fit in a box for a specific group of people/fans is just dumb. Let them diversify. Imagine if Marvel made all the movies the same, like Avengers, Thor, etc. We wouldn't get more mature things like Logan and Deadpool.
@@kassaken6521Exactly! The Star Wars universe is massive and should be used as a setting to tell all kinds of stories. Don’t give us a “Star Wars” show or movie, give us a good show or movie in the Star Wars universe. Only shows that do this so far have been Andor, and Clone Wars has experimented with this method in the past.
@@kassaken6521I think what's happened is you enjoyed Star Wars as a kid and now that you've grown up you expect it to have grown with you. It's always been a simple story about good vs evil and sword fighting in space with simple over the top melodrama that a child can understand, because it's aimed at children. There's nothing wrong with enjoying it, we all did, but the audience has always been children.
Watching House of the Dragon where scenes actually take their time and play out and then watching the Acolyte where a scene abruptly ends with a cut every 30 seconds is so jarring. Why can't we get 60 minute episodes so they can actually take their time
Yeah, it’s kinda baffling how we keep getting sub 30 min episodes with the amount of budget that they supposedly have. Wasn’t 5 also supposed to make up for 4’s hilariously short runtime? It’s just as short. We can’t even get Sol mourning his comrades for a bit.
Characters running off, or being stunned and having time out, is just a symptom of a bigger problem: the script and direction just cannot make a cohesive scene, with a purposeful mini-narrative, vignette or exchange, and link it to something larger. The cuts in this were so jarring, and the more they cut, the more the audience thinks wtf where who what now? So the guy carried off by the spawn of Mothra is back, ok, and Mae has had another personality transplant, ok, ... so who's good, bad, shady, about to turn on the company of dim heroes or have a redemptive moment etc. Even Sol seems to be painted as having too many secrets. Ok... but at Ep.5 that's not introducing nuance and complexity, that's narrative incoherence.
Yeah, when the Jedi were all fighting the Sith I counted at least 3 times they could’ve gotten and easy fatal blow to him with a slash, a stab, and a cut. But I agree I loved this episode the most out of all them 😅
It is impossible to avoid when 1 fights against many, but film makers will never learn. In real life you have no chance against many, especially when they surround you. One rare case would be a fully armored knight against bunch of poorly armed and unarmored man, but that would work only if they are very stupid :).
@@wojtek1582 yeah that’s true 😅😂, this usually doesn’t bother me but it was very noticeable able here cause at least the sequels had them swing at nothing but for this they were dead staring at his back for 3 seconds 😅😂
Well in revenge of the sith, anakin vs obi-wan there are also few moments where other could have easily strike another or slash. Same with qui-gon & obi-wan vs Maul. That's why i love original trilogy lightsaber fight. Even tho they are slower, they actually look like they are dueling and trying to disarm one another and not just going spins and flashy moves.
@@wojtek1582nah in real life there is a chance depending on how skilled you are and depending on wether its hand to hand or not and especially depending on how many i have actually seen a dude win a 1v5 before and im not making it up believe me or dont its actually possible just extremely hard and you have to be able to use your own adrenaline in a good and healthy way rather than just succumbing to fear and what not
I really liked the bugs carrying him away. Felt very in line with Star Wars' tone, particularly Rebels trope of using of big monsters to attack your adversaries
I thought it was corny and very childish, the bad guy can beat every jedi but when the main character brings the bugs it stops him… the bugs had no other purpose and got introduced in the last episode to have Osha do something clever (goofy in my opinion)
@@gustavottosson4550 When were those bugs meant to be established if not in the last episode? In the first episode? Before the show even started? Those bugs were the reason for why it was not recommended to go to the forest during the night. About the first argument: I would like to see an assasin defeating about a dozen of spiders that are about as big as a child and they want to kill him or at least do something to him. It's important to note that he defeated those bugs, so as you said they stopped him, but this way the jedi also stopped him. He didn't defeat them by sanpping his fingers.
@@wojti225 @sesuaki19 i guess What i dont like about it, is that it is bugs, because it feels like its always a creature these days, that stops him in the end. It just feels off and sort of lasy writing
Thats not the “starwars tone” thats just the childish tone of the cartoons that was probably the only terrible thing about this episode, be careful not to compare the live action universe to the looney toon starwars universe they look and feel different for a reason
Sadly i bet no one else can speak his language even though im sure he can just write them messages but lets see if leslye is smart enough… shes probably not
@@jilliebean6312if he can’t speak the common language, what makes you think he’ll be able to write it? Can you write in a language you don’t understand just because you’re asked to?

IMO the scenes with the Jedi temple just felt off. It didnt seem like its the Jedi temple. The Jedi we saw seem less imposing, kinda normal. I didnt feel like any of them were all that powerful. Not the same feeling that we got from the prequels.
Him getting carried away by bugs was the dumbest plot move ever. He murdered like 3 Jedi’s at one and ur thinking a couple bugs will kill him like what
Yes, because he probably wasn't familiar with the bugs, while he's probably been studying the Jedi for years. You could be a Special Forces Navy Seal that could take out an entire room full of soldiers, but still have trouble with a small group of hyenas.
Let's put you in a field with a bunch of mosquitos and see if it doesn't distract you..............Mosquitos kill hundred's of thousands of people a year!
@@suryaselvakumar5385 He was able to Force push all the Jedi because he was anticipating them and had time to charge it up while they were running at him. He was completely caught off-guard by the bugs. Just because a Force user can perform an action in one context doesn't mean they can do it all the time. It's the same reason that Jedi aren't constantly Force pushing and pulling in battle.
I edited star wars acolyte and condensed all 5 episodes, it has a 64-minute runtime. It has good bones for low budget movie. where did the money go because it didn't go to editing and writing.
I think he does that because he has other priorities. It’s ok if one jedi that doesn’t know his identity escapes, but Mae escaping is much worse. You can see he only does that when he has a reason to
Okay i like the bugs part. It uses the aggresion of the sith agaisnt them. Turning of the l8ghtsaber and removing the light anr they would have most likely left him alone. But bc he was a sith this was not an option.
What are you talking about? This is high art! Academy award winning cinema. Will be watched for generations to come. The apex of entertainment..."ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?" Honesty, the best we can hope for is some other company buying Lucasfilm and immediately pressing the delete button on the show
the acolyte very quickly went from a bad stars wars show to a bad show in general. Credit where its due, the fight choreography was pretty decent and better than other recent star wars projects but the story and motives are extremely lacking. Most people stopped watching early on (including myself, I stopped after ep 1 as the show failed to hook me) and won't see the "decent" parts of the show
I'm sorry but when did lightsabers in the shows start looking like frosted glass glowsticks instead of the usual two tone white core look? I just seemed to notice it a lot more in these clips of the Acolyte, is it a stylistic choice because of the High Republic era or has this been a thing for a while now?
Hm good point however fights were really good. He coul immidiately kill Mae or not Yord after cutting his leg. Its 50/50 for me, from one side he should kill them fast, from the other he had to chase Mae. Coll detail is she was scarred as hell. With bugs at first i got sad and disapointed thinking they ended "Sith lord".
It drives me nuts. I know its a small detail. . . But when someone stands by watching their master/fellow/friend fight a bad guy. . . It feels like a D&D campaign where people are waiting for their turn. Ie: why the F**K wasnt Master Sol re-engaging the bad guy when his apprentice moved in? We've seen 2-on-1 lightsaber duels. Why wait? Happens wayyyyy to much in this show.
I actually think that was great, he didn't _need_ i kill the Jedi yet, Mae was his target so whenever he got the opportunity, he chased after Mae to prevent her escape.
He goal was to kill his pupil after the encounter he saw only master sol as a threat but not one he can’t deal with so he went to deal with his main problem first I liked the mysterious vanishing because each time you worried about Mae and who’s with her
This has always been a problem with Star Wars, writers love shoving in duels between characters where nobody can die/get seriously hurt. It even got to the point in TCW where Dooku has a escape hatch built into every ship and room he's going to be in
Personally I actually have to disagree with this. I don’t find it lazy and whether it truly was intentional or not, I find it realistic. The Sith have not been discovered in a millennium and are not yet ready to reveal themselves to the Jedi Order. Every Jedi that the Sith attacked or that saw another being attacked had to be killed so that none of the Jedi could alert the rest of the order that the Sith had indeed returned. To do this the Sith had to sacrifice killing some of his opponents for instead chasing others who were simultaneously running away. This was to ensure that no witnesses got off the planet. This may not seam very Sith like as a Sith almost never resists the urge to kill unless the victim is needed for something but the Sith is so powerful that he knows that he could kill everyone in an even more satisfying way later anyways. He does and he brutally kills all the Jedi in the same place close together in a brutal manner letting them see each other die and get engulfed in grief and rage. The only survivors that the Sith fails to kill or capture for whatever reason are Mae and Master Sol and that weird beaver thing. I’m sure he will accomplish this in episodes to come.

Anything can happen in any story, if you back it up with good reasoning. The problem with this show is that I haven’t seen much if any good reasoning for anything.

This is somewhat my only real criticism of the Disney SW/MCU shows. They are not being made for episodic television viewing. They are being made as one big story that gets chopped up into however many episodes they need to fill in the schedule to get as many subscribers. Episode 4 and 5 of the alcolyte is a perfect example of the narrative being chopped up to make the episode count. It hurts the narrative flow. Obi-Wan was victim to this and it was made even more clear by a fan edit release that made the show into a movie that was very very very good relative to the show. They either need to make these into movies, extend the episodes while writing them as TV episodes, or just release them all at once so they can be viewed all together. I mean that was kind of the promise of streaming in the first place :)
This is because the “writers” arnt writers, they are ideology driven activists. Quality for them isn’t story telling it’s how well they promote their ideology, in that sense this series is a complete success. Which also means this isn’t art, it’s propaganda.
"Star Wars is goofy and always should be".
