They were trying to make the Acolyte feel just like the original trilogy. They thought it would be cool to recreate the scene where 3po was tangled up in wires on the Millenium Falcon. As soon as I saw that, it changed my view of the Acolyte - I realised Disney DOES care about the fans. And the Acolyte captures the essence of Star Wars like nothing else I have ever seen.
Bazil randomly sabotages the ship, Sol has no reaction towards him, he just steps outside the ship. Not to mention we didn't see how it landed given the damage that Bazil did and how he lost control of the ship. Just before that, May manages to slip the right hand from the bed restrain then next thing you know she is free with the left hand also. You notice these things because you are thinking "no way she surprise him and escape because the other hand is still tied and how much damage can she do with one hand?".
How did the senate find out about Jedi dying but not the high council? Why is the senate talking to Vernestra at all? Does she lead the high council now? What was that ridiculous Plagueis cameo? Why did Sol go into the asteroids? Why not just follow her outside of it? Why did Basil rip those cords out? Why didn’t Sol just kill Qimir? How the fk did OSHA bleed the crystal without a problem? This almost KILLED Darth Vader!! Where did OSHA’s force powers come from all of a sudden? Why did Sol give up? Why is the senate having a conversation with Vernestra about the Jedi? Why not speak to the high council? Why did Mae let herself get captured ? What did that do for them? Why did Vernestra basically solidify the senates belief that the Jedi can go bad? Why did the high council NOT know that Vernestra was full of shit? Why would Qimir all of a sudden be Dr Love to Osha? Why the fk did they add Yoda to this lie? What the fk did I just watch????
Why does another character in any part of the franchise ever selectively wipe out 16 years of a powerfully force sensitive character's memory by waving their hand? Seems like a far easier way to deal with most conflicts than extracted battles
@@rhyswong8976 I felt like I have no room to have an opinion if I don't watch it. I can tell you if they decide to greenlight a 2nd season, I won't be watching.
I still choose not to believe that the grandmaster, whose lived for over 600 years and has trained in the force for that long, could not sense a disturbance in the force after dozens of Jedis were slaughtered and a high potential force wielder turned to the dark side
@@josephle2381 The writers just wanted to show the Jedi in the worst way possible as they think that the setting that Jedi are good and that if a person that is Jedi ceases being good is not a Jedi anymore is wrong. I disagree with them, but there seem to be plenty shills out there that want cuddle Siths (or Vampires like in Twilight) so Sith cannot be the prime evil in their minds... It is either deletion of the show, which won't happen or at least a split universe (won't happen under KK).

Just subscribed after seeing you on star wars theory and I absolutely love all of your takes on Acolyte and on Star Wars. Your content is so good. Absolutely love! 🫶🏻
funny since in the audio book he's a crude politician kind of figure that uses his family fortune to fund various things, in many ways he's a sith in plain sight just like palpatine, not whatever the heck they portrayed
The absolute audacity of the people responsible is just baffling to me. It's like someone letting me write a Harry Potter series, I don't know jack about HP. So the last thing I'd do is tackle fundamental things like how magic works or implementing Voldemort or whatever, who tf am I to mess with such a big legacy like this? These people have literally no respect and zero shame
LGBTQ trains in the method of hate. Sol is cis male and therefore evil. Which begs the question if the Jedi bad and sith good, why would her/it killing him turn the kyber crystal red. If what she does is just then it should have stayed its own color.
Imagine being a Sith / Jedi cosplayer, this was really insulting to what they, the Sith / Jedi, stand for. I'd love to hear cos-players thoughts on this as they tend to know the whole lore better than most people...
Most people are uncomfortable attending funerals. But if it's a friend's funeral, we attend out of respect. It feels like this is why most viewers watched The Acolyte. Cue the Star Wars Funeral Theme 😢
Hey champ - You are clearly a sharp wit and I’ve enjoyed your reviews immensely. So, just between us, it’s currently EDT and not EST; I used to make this mistake as well. Thanks for the entertaining videos!
So Osha hearing Sol admit to killing her mom made her angry enough to bleed a crystal, which should take a lot more time, but had no anger towards discount Ezra Miller for killing all the Jedi, including Yord and Jecki??
Agree with you on that...if you really think, Osha was raised for almost 16 (give or take leaving the Jedi to go become Mechnik B.S.) years by Sol, she throws all that away on a dime emotionally not allowing him to explain, yet she literally watched Darth Zippermouth / aka sleeveless kill her close friends and she's ok will him holding hands at the end of the damn show! Are you kidding me! I mean, she didn't even think, give a chance, or reflect. It's too much for the writers to develop anything on screen. Garbage
Why did Mae need to have her mind wiped and be left for the Jedi?? Why didn't they just take Mae with them?? Like, I thought this whole story was to bring the two girls back together and then they just split up for absolutely no reason?! Make it make sense!!!!
Literally she could’ve went with them, cut her hair and change her appearance, then change her identity and blend in with the rest of the galaxy. Why did she have her memory wiped 🤣
THIS. Why did they have to leave Mae behind? Probably for the same reason Basil cut the wires in the ship. It needed to happen to continue the show in a certain way. How else will Jedi Mae be able to fight Sith Osha if they don't leave her behind and wipe her mind?
Is it sad I want a second season just for the sheer entertainment value of Snarky's reviews? Disney needs to keep bringing this ridiculous shit just so we we have hilarious SnarkyJay content.
That is the funny thing with recent bad shows like Rings of power, The Acolyte and so on. Is the fact that the real entertainment is not with shows but all the videos and comments on RUclips. So I have to agree I also want a second season for this reason.
Hey found your channel form Star Wars theory stream you did with him. I love your energy and totally agree with your takes will be checking out the rest of your content !
Tbf, this was filmed long before Iger made that statement, so there was really nothing that could be done. He must’ve known this disaster was coming though
Your response and opinion about this show is absolutely agreeable. Because all of these 8 weeks of episodes was like watching paint drying on a wall. Leslye Headland has no idea what Star Wars truly is. Herself and Kathleen Kennedy have destroyed the Star Wars Universe and turned it into a diabolical hell hole. And as you said, they are taking the piss on the prequels and the originals and destroying what George Lucas started. I've watched this show for each week and nothing from this show entertained me at all. Written and script is AWFUl, performances DREADFUL, and story does not make any sense. And the ones who love this show so much! Doesn't understand the true meaning of the Star Wars franchise. They rather stick to Kathleen Kennedy's way of Star Wars than actually look back what George Lucas started. Lucas made us Star Wars fans, and Kathleen comes along and destroys it all. Skeleton Crew is the next live action show and it's defentiley going to flop.
EXACTLY.... have we ever seen any mind wiping in Star Wars? and if you want to group it as a Force using mind trick I don't think the twins are weak minded to be as susceptible
Multiple writers, overseers, production crew, actors, post-production crew... at least 100 people... and no one raised their hand to say, "Uh... hey, this makes no sense and looks really bad on screen." Seriously, nobody wanted to tell Leslye how bad this was?! Well, when you surround yourself with people who just say "yes" to anything... this is what you get.
Because she has all the dirt from Weinstein. You think what he was doing was confined to him. She likely has so much blackmail that she is basically able to run things with an iron fist.
@@dontghostbanmeplz8788 People keep getting this wrong. EPSTEIN was the one with the island, WEINSTEIN was the one who forced actresses to do him or he ruined their careers. Leslie just bravely and stunningly helped a man in a position of power prey on women and possibly got some leftovers. If you think about it like a Disney executive, she's really the true heroine of the Me Too movement. Star Wars was misogynistic you see, because only the three most important leaders of the good guy factions shown on screen in the original 6 movies were women while the main antagonists were only 100% men. Then in the sequels there were only two new strong female bosses that ran everything and saved the day in each film while the male protagonists just ran around yelling names. They needed Leslie to educate the masses on how to treat women, how to really respect them...show them as evil, power-hungry monsters that betray everything they claim to believe for some D and a chance to escape all accountability. Really doing a service for womankind.
@@kymorin6146 Osha is special, I guess. Osha is nowhere near the kind of raw hate and rage we saw in Darth Maul or Dark Sidious. She's a joke. The fact that she turns her saber red really makes me feel like the Sith are not good or sympathetic or understandable. They're now just boring.
With $180 million budget the writers, actors and producers all made a ton of money off of this show. The fact that they told a crappy story that pissed off fans is just icing on the cake.
Every time the writers ran into an issue (which was a ton) they were reminded of their mantra, “BARELY AN INCONVENIENCE!” and changed directions on a dime 😂
Love your review. The worst thing about the show for me was how they present the Sith as "not that bad" while the Jedi were "evil conniving meddlers". My dudes! The dark side corrupts everything it touches. At the end of the clone wars Anakin wasn't in his right mind while talking to Padme and duelling Obiwan. His face was markedly changed by the dark side and oh here Osha was still all pretty... just with bleeding red light saber. The lesson they are trying to teach is that evil is not that bad but good is! How much does this seep into their kid shows too I wonder.
Shrek is a better actor, more likeable (Charismatic) and sexier than this green skinned bald lesbian. I never wanted to see Leslie Headlands wife or husband or whatever. I especially dont wanna see her bald, with green skin in freakin star wars.
This is just a small thing but when Vader went to bleed his crystal in the comic, it took massive effort. It fought back. It showed him a future where he redeemed himself, killed sidious and surrendered to obiwan asking for forgiveness like it took alot for that to happen. Now lightsabers are just.. moodrings? Like wtf are we doing here guys lol
@@TalaCruz I'm just saying they could have made it more of an event, use some of that 180million dollars. Give me something to at least look at if the writing is this shit
Snarky jay I enjoyed your cussing even if censored it makes me fell better because I really cannot describe anything in the acolyte with a string of profanity
We could spend weeks describing the 100's of problems with this trash. One that no one has mentioned is during squid-game-guy's last lightsabre fight with Darth Sleaveless, there is a point where the lightsabres are locked together in a way that the fighters are pulling the sabres against each other instead of pushing. Basically, one of the fighters just has to let off the pressure to killed their opponent. Also, when Squid-game-guy did the flying double kick, Darth Sleaveless was fully free and open to slice and dice but instead just held his lightsabre out of the way.
Peak lazy writing was Green M&M ordering some nameless knights off. The writers didn't give them names for green M&M to address them by, despite riding in a starship together. Disney gave how much money to this, $180M? Didn't do any QA oversight during the "creative process". Bad dialogue paired with stilted deliveries. So the show ends with the girl going with the guy who killed her friends, who were with the guy who regretfully killed her mother, who she killed upon his confession. Green M&M covers it all up, and heads back to the Jedi Temple to have a pint and wait for this to all blow over.
@@BiggieTrismegistus To be fair, they may have all walked out there together while asking themselves as a group. “How are we going to cover 30 km of perimeter?!?”
The message is that Headland is trying turn something good into something evil, because she is jealous that something so good and so successful was created by a man, and is just trying to tear it down, that is the only reason this thing exists. They don't care how much it costs them, they must tear it down. Such a shame that everyone can see through this & just dismiss it as a joke created by a crazed, delusional woman and carry on with the OG context as canon.
Headland literally said in multiple interviews that she likes and is drawn to powerful people that use their power how they want and that these people are misunderstood. That these people are not actually evil or wrong but rather just looking to live their life their own way. Ladies and gentleman I give you Leslie Headland, Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant.
I don’t think the writers understand how distance and the 5 Senses work because not only is it hard to believe Osha would’ve been able to hear Sol, but they also had Yord use Macrobinoculars to watch a fight 20 feet away from him…
Sooooooo, Lime Skittlehead appears to be bringing Yoda into this clusterfuck? 😶 Shure….why not, he was the only thing left unsoiled in the Star Wars universe….this puts a perfect finish onto this arc. They had to destroy the hero’s, because there are no such thing as hero’s anymore. 😢
You doing an immediate hot take on the episode is way more entertaining, as you don't hold back on your genuine disgust. The amount of 'beeps' in this review are pretty hilarious and you should do these raw takes more often 😆
I am thankful for the Acolyte series because it led me to your channel. Loved your 8 episode reviews of the series. Looking forward to the reviews of series 2 which they seem to be hell bent on making.
Congrats on 100k! 🥑🥑🥑 As for Acolyte... they'll keep it going out of spite. If they end it, they'll be admitting defeat. They won't want us to be right.
Best thing to come out of the Acolyte was I discovered this channel. I can't believe 4 years ago I was excited for what I thought was going to be a sith-centric show. I saw the first episode, just watched Snarky's reviews for the rest. Sad.
"Darth Malgus. A sith known for both his sacking of the Jedi Temple on Corusant and killing his lover to cleanse himself of weakness." Lesley Headland: "This man is clearly misunderstood. The Jedi are clearly at fault here. And I bet his lover probably cheated on him too."
They added that Yoda scene at the last minute after they heard the complaints about no Yoda even though he supposedly leads the council at that time. The plot was predictable from the beginning. Darth Sleeveless was obvious by the second episode. They played the same past scenes over and over and nothing was really different. They claim it was a Rashomon style of story, but they obviously have never watched Rashomon. Every flashback should have been different, with obvious differences to show the different points of views, as no witness describes the same scenario the same, with small bits and pieces of new information. That's not really what happened here. The past was simply revealed over a long convoluted pace that was wrong for this show. The scenes just seem out of order with maybe a different camera angle. That's it. They took a well known Korean Actor and wasted his talents. This story was so rushed, which is all the more problematic by the short episode times. They didn't even take the time needed to tell the story properly or develop the characters properly. The "mystery" wasn't even very mysterious. Leslye Headland having to explain her reasoning and story plotlines in interviews clearly shows it was a bad story. You only have to explain your story when you write poorly. We were also promised it would be more like a Shaw Brothers film. I didn't realize they meant all the boring parts of Shaw Brothers. They should have just literally copied a Shaw Brothers film. That would have been better than what we got. I knew the High Republic was a bad idea when they announced it. Now I know how much worse it could be. If I were in charge, all of the High Republic, The Acolyte, Kathleen Kennedy, and all the people she hired, would be removed. It's clear they have no business being in the entertainment industry.
Very on the money summation. Pathetic and infuriating is my own summation of this absolute crap show, you just cant meddle with Star Wars like this, WTF are you doing?! Biggest abuse of power on the planet, consistent with what’s actually happening to our planet. Just writing this makes me wonder why the fk I still have Disney or any pay TV for that matter
Venestra being able to sense Smilo Ren from miles away just by standing on the ground yet every fucking episode Sol is completely unable to sense ANYTHING that’s happening around him at all times
Look what’s the point anymore. Headland even had the gall to say George Lucas influence in Star Wars was overrated… not joking look it up. Disney only wanted to buy the brand, erase what was done before so they could push with their own new improved Star Wars. Look at what they did to Luke, Han and Leila. Or the fact they decided to only keep canon the original trilogy and prequel and not the 40 years worth of stories we love so much. They don’t care. They thought we’d buy anything with the Star Wars name. And it comes down to this sh*t

At least Mark Hamill was right about one thing: Disney does not understand lightsabers.
Ooof yes.
It's so hard to rewatch the OT with my youngens and knowing how hateful he becomes in his old age.
I may have missed it but did Harrison ever spout off a out his political beliefs?
That's why they say separate the art from the artist and never meet your heroes
Really Disney doesn't.
He was right about A LOT of things.
@@budgiecat9039Do you mean this towards Mark Hamill? What did he do? I only know of that one controversy over the JK Rowling tweet but he's pro basic Human rights so I think it was a mistake.
Thank you for your sacrifice in watching this crap so we dont have to.
This show was the real tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise no one wanted
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Stop it. Your killing me
This comment is so good😂😂😂
The worst part was Plagueis in the show.
@@christopherwichgers3093 an award winning comment my friend. May the thread be with you 🤣
Palpatine: Have you ever heard the story of Darth Plagueis the literal cave troll and the sisterhood of the traveling Thread?
Anakin: "um... no... but could you tell me...after I use the bathroom real quick?"
Palpatine: "Why yes, of course, I'll jus be here watch this orb..."
Anakin: "Master Windu, palatine is a sith lord an he's planning to kill you all an destroy democracy! Plus...I think he might be friends with a sex predator... "
"Set up a 5 click perimeter" - everyone walks in a straight line behind Bazil....
Basil is a fucking kamikaze pilot. Dude was ready to kill everyone because ‘gopher don’t like sol trying to catch lady basil has hunted down religiously’. So his solution is send them both tumbling thru space in an asteroid field lol
@@davidalpeter9963 Leslye actually admitted in an interview that Bazil was basically the power of plot... and that she never actually thought Bazil out as a character. He just does what the plot needs to happen.
Vinestra : "the rest of you make a perimeter 5 clicks out."
Padawans : completely ignore her orders and follow Alf.
Also why was Qimir so adamant on running away lol he solo'd a bunch of Jedi before no problem. He'd have no issue with these soy sap excuses for Jedi
I noticed this too!
@@budgiecat9039 he could probably fight those guys but would get rekt by skittle's head master, specially that his saber got destroyed by Sol, he still had the little shoto blade but against her he would need both in order to defend against the whip, also he was runing from her reason why he kept the helmet on, if he used his force powers too much to fight all those jedi she would have caught up to him.
Right? I was like "What manner of perimeter is this?"
@@MarcSiqueira he could use Osha's new blade
Bazil ripped out the cords to sabotage the ship because.... he read the script and knows both ships have to crash on the planet so things can advance.
Yeah I was like wtf why did he do that
I was literally shouting wtf is going on, when that scene happened. 😂 He just betrays him out of nowhere.
@@rayvonvelez3129 And not just that. At no point does Sol go "hey, WTF WAS THAT ABOUT?" He just shrugs and continues on towards the next plot point.
They were trying to make the Acolyte feel just like the original trilogy.
They thought it would be cool to recreate the scene where 3po was tangled up in wires on the Millenium Falcon.
As soon as I saw that, it changed my view of the Acolyte - I realised Disney DOES care about the fans.
And the Acolyte captures the essence of Star Wars like nothing else I have ever seen.
Bazil was the only entertaining character in the series, so he can do whatever he wants. Rip a cable, eat a Porg, whatever he wants.
If I was married to Leslye Headland, I'd probably turn green too.
Hahahahaha
That’s Shrek
I’d die of cringe
She turned green because she's seen Lesbye naked.
I'm dying 😂😂😂
"For over -a thousand generations- 999 generations, the Jedi knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the old Republic..."
Before the dark times…. Before Disney
Bazil randomly sabotages the ship, Sol has no reaction towards him, he just steps outside the ship. Not to mention we didn't see how it landed given the damage that Bazil did and how he lost control of the ship.
Just before that, May manages to slip the right hand from the bed restrain then next thing you know she is free with the left hand also. You notice these things because you are thinking "no way she surprise him and escape because the other hand is still tied and how much damage can she do with one hand?".
I have “watched” acolyte through your videos and I really felt I had so much more fun that if I have watched the series.
Thank you!
They should have played Judas Priest during the end credits.
"Breaking the lore, breaking the lore"
But that would've been accurate
Thanks I needed a chuckle.

How did the senate find out about Jedi dying but not the high council? Why is the senate talking to Vernestra at all? Does she lead the high council now? What was that ridiculous Plagueis cameo?

Salute to you for be able to survive this. My eyes and my brain will die if I did.

@@rhyswong8976 I felt like I have no room to have an opinion if I don't watch it. I can tell you if they decide to greenlight a 2nd season, I won't be watching.
The only good thing to come from the Acolyte is getting to watch Snarky Jay's video rants about it. Oh and congrats on the 100K plaque!
Don’t worry Jay, it’s over now. Cannot wait for your video covering it.
As I listen to this I think back to that scene in A Clockwork Orange where Alex's eyes are held open while watching The Acolyte.
When Pip skeeted on Osha's face I couldn't control my laughter in disbelief.
This show is gratuitously creepy and weird.
so.. the finale was... "And Yoda knew the whole time" Holy. Fuck. This whole series needs to be deleted forever
Yes, they should do the Star Trek thing like the Kelvin Timeline and declare Acolyte and EP7-9 the "Star Romance Wars Verse" and be done with it.
I still choose not to believe that the grandmaster, whose lived for over 600 years and has trained in the force for that long, could not sense a disturbance in the force after dozens of Jedis were slaughtered and a high potential force wielder turned to the dark side
@@josephle2381 The writers just wanted to show the Jedi in the worst way possible as they think that the setting that Jedi are good and that if a person that is Jedi ceases being good is not a Jedi anymore is wrong. I disagree with them, but there seem to be plenty shills out there that want cuddle Siths (or Vampires like in Twilight) so Sith cannot be the prime evil in their minds...
It is either deletion of the show, which won't happen or at least a split universe (won't happen under KK).
Because Yoda accidently killed Osha's pet hamster. It is all a Jedi cover up operation that got out of control.
Their probably use the mutiverse as a get out of jail free card.
I love the comparison between Darth Sleeveless and Osha holding hands and Leslye Headland and Harvey Weinstein's relationship at 11:30-ish! Well done, Snarky Jay!

Darth Plagueis is just standing there! MENACINGLY!
The only good thing about the show. The rest was crap!
His been there all the time.. Even when the stranger was skinny dipping... watching... ah Lesley.. write what you know.... :p
CREEPILY!
He's doing what all males do, creeping on people, it's what we do!😂
funny since in the audio book he's a crude politician kind of figure that uses his family fortune to fund various things, in many ways he's a sith in plain sight just like palpatine, not whatever the heck they portrayed
Thank goodness Snarky Jay watched this for us!! I wouldn’t have been able to stomach it. SJ we salute you!!
The absolute audacity of the people responsible is just baffling to me. It's like someone letting me write a Harry Potter series, I don't know jack about HP. So the last thing I'd do is tackle fundamental things like how magic works or implementing Voldemort or whatever, who tf am I to mess with such a big legacy like this? These people have literally no respect and zero shame
Remember guys:
This show is for kids 🙄
Disney has just cancelled season 2 of Acolyte. It IS over!
"What's the message, because there's definitely a message"... perfectly said. There's definitely a message they want to shove down our thoughts
If everyone cancels their Disney+ subscription after this then they'll listen.
You don't even have to cancel Disney, just stop watching new Star Wars.
I already did after episode three.
Why would I do that? I liked acolyte. This comment section isn't for me either. back to new rockstars and maceuhwindu
Can't cancel something I never had, friend
@@Phoenix0F8 you should get it. Disney Plus has good stuff.
Anakin lightsaber didn't turn red while killing KIDS meanwhile Sols lighsaber in Oshas hand turns red because of haterid... amazing
LGBTQ trains in the method of hate. Sol is cis male and therefore evil. Which begs the question if the Jedi bad and sith good, why would her/it killing him turn the kyber crystal red. If what she does is just then it should have stayed its own color.
Osha was physically touching the crystal
how, the lens was broken. She didn’t touch the Kyber directly from what I could see.

Good point !! Yeah the message is terrible for woman !!
Write what you know.
@@thatHARVguy - this is sadly accurate comment
Vernestra, "a FLAWED MAN!"....lame...
And Sol and the actor were done so dirty....
Imagine being a Sith / Jedi cosplayer, this was really insulting to what they, the Sith / Jedi, stand for. I'd love to hear cos-players thoughts on this as they tend to know the whole lore better than most people...
Most people are uncomfortable attending funerals. But if it's a friend's funeral, we attend out of respect. It feels like this is why most viewers watched The Acolyte. Cue the Star Wars Funeral Theme 😢
Hey champ - You are clearly a sharp wit and I’ve enjoyed your reviews immensely. So, just between us, it’s currently EDT and not EST; I used to make this mistake as well. Thanks for the entertaining videos!
So Osha hearing Sol admit to killing her mom made her angry enough to bleed a crystal, which should take a lot more time, but had no anger towards discount Ezra Miller for killing all the Jedi, including Yord and Jecki??
I totally agree. I am so done trying to make sense of this show.
And they never said anything about Sol acting in self defense. He thought he was being force-attacked. Friggin darkside witches. Who wouldn't
Agree with you on that...if you really think, Osha was raised for almost 16 (give or take leaving the Jedi to go become Mechnik B.S.) years by Sol, she throws all that away on a dime emotionally not allowing him to explain, yet she literally watched Darth Zippermouth / aka sleeveless kill her close friends and she's ok will him holding hands at the end of the damn show! Are you kidding me! I mean, she didn't even think, give a chance, or reflect. It's too much for the writers to develop anything on screen. Garbage
He is mary sue nothing is important to Weinstein assistant writting
"Attack me with all your strength!!!"
DUMBEST line ever spoken in film history.
Dear god, that's the worst first spoken line...
It's so cringe 😭
After Indara says, "Yes, my child?" Huh?
Only sounds good in Dragonball
Why did Mae need to have her mind wiped and be left for the Jedi??
Why didn't they just take Mae with them?? Like, I thought this whole story was to bring the two girls back together and then they just split up for absolutely no reason?! Make it make sense!!!!
Literally she could’ve went with them, cut her hair and change her appearance, then change her identity and blend in with the rest of the galaxy. Why did she have her memory wiped 🤣
THIS. Why did they have to leave Mae behind? Probably for the same reason Basil cut the wires in the ship. It needed to happen to continue the show in a certain way. How else will Jedi Mae be able to fight Sith Osha if they don't leave her behind and wipe her mind?
@@seb8905 I don't know who tf does? The writers don't, and they made this crap up

Obligatory cliffhanger.
Is it sad I want a second season just for the sheer entertainment value of Snarky's reviews? Disney needs to keep bringing this ridiculous shit just so we we have hilarious SnarkyJay content.
Exactly..her reviews are the best part of the entire series.
That is the funny thing with recent bad shows like Rings of power, The Acolyte and so on. Is the fact that the real entertainment is not with shows but all the videos and comments on RUclips. So I have to agree I also want a second season for this reason.
Not sure I'd like to see her get punished like that. Come on there's a limit.
Hey found your channel form Star Wars theory stream you did with him. I love your energy and totally agree with your takes will be checking out the rest of your content !
"...we need to talk."
"Eff off, you will...think me blind, do you? BLAMELESS, Sol is! A Jedi, YOU are NOT."
The real hero of this story is Torbin who said "nah-ah, I'm out" early on
He & Trinity took the money and ran. I would too.
Better writing in this comment than the whole thingy. You could get hundreds of millions of dollars for this kind of writing.
News flash: Kathleen Kennedy is still employed at Lucasfilm….. this doesn’t look like quality Bob Iger.
Tbf, this was filmed long before Iger made that statement, so there was really nothing that could be done. He must’ve known this disaster was coming though

@@Arander92Yet Rogue Squadron is still on board as well as the Rey movie no one is asking for
Your response and opinion about this show is absolutely agreeable. Because all of these 8 weeks of episodes was like watching paint drying on a wall. Leslye Headland has no idea what Star Wars truly is. Herself and Kathleen Kennedy have destroyed the Star Wars Universe and turned it into a diabolical hell hole. And as you said, they are taking the piss on the prequels and the originals and destroying what George Lucas started. I've watched this show for each week and nothing from this show entertained me at all. Written and script is AWFUl, performances DREADFUL, and story does not make any sense.
And the ones who love this show so much! Doesn't understand the true meaning of the Star Wars franchise. They rather stick to Kathleen Kennedy's way of Star Wars than actually look back what George Lucas started. Lucas made us Star Wars fans, and Kathleen comes along and destroys it all. Skeleton Crew is the next live action show and it's defentiley going to flop.
Memory wiping is up there with waking up from a dream to retcon lazy writing.
She couldnt remember anything after she was 8 years old. Also somehow she didnt remember she had a sister?
EXACTLY.... have we ever seen any mind wiping in Star Wars? and if you want to group it as a Force using mind trick I don't think the twins are weak minded to be as susceptible
Multiple writers, overseers, production crew, actors, post-production crew... at least 100 people... and no one raised their hand to say, "Uh... hey, this makes no sense and looks really bad on screen." Seriously, nobody wanted to tell Leslye how bad this was?! Well, when you surround yourself with people who just say "yes" to anything... this is what you get.
Because she has all the dirt from Weinstein. You think what he was doing was confined to him. She likely has so much blackmail that she is basically able to run things with an iron fist.
Bob Iger: Everyone, agree to everything Lesley says or asks, else she will hang out my dirty laundry from H.W 's island.
Probably why the original production manager was fired just a few weeks in. Tried to stop the sh*t show at the start.
@@chuckv248 and all that money to hire starwars fanatics to look over lore... they really took a piss with this production
@@dontghostbanmeplz8788 People keep getting this wrong. EPSTEIN was the one with the island, WEINSTEIN was the one who forced actresses to do him or he ruined their careers. Leslie just bravely and stunningly helped a man in a position of power prey on women and possibly got some leftovers. If you think about it like a Disney executive, she's really the true heroine of the Me Too movement.
Star Wars was misogynistic you see, because only the three most important leaders of the good guy factions shown on screen in the original 6 movies were women while the main antagonists were only 100% men. Then in the sequels there were only two new strong female bosses that ran everything and saved the day in each film while the male protagonists just ran around yelling names. They needed Leslie to educate the masses on how to treat women, how to really respect them...show them as evil, power-hungry monsters that betray everything they claim to believe for some D and a chance to escape all accountability.
Really doing a service for womankind.
🔑 Look, Darth Plagueis!
🔑 Look, the back of Yoda’s head!
thats pretty much the mantality of this show...
Still not enough for the fans of SW to like this trash series.
That’s not how lightsabers work. They don’t just turn red because you’re evil😂
Exactly takes time to pour your hate and anger into it to bleed the crystal.
Now, they do.
@@kymorin6146 Osha is special, I guess.
Osha is nowhere near the kind of raw hate and rage we saw in Darth Maul or Dark Sidious. She's a joke. The fact that she turns her saber red really makes me feel like the Sith are not good or sympathetic or understandable. They're now just boring.
lol they do now!!!
Yeah, but that's also when lightsabers were actually fatal . . .
With $180 million budget the writers, actors and producers all made a ton of money off of this show. The fact that they told a crappy story that pissed off fans is just icing on the cake.
I love the amount of BEEPS in this video! Feel you
Loving the sight of your new RUclips plaque hanging up behind you congratulations again on your achievement 🎉🎉
Turns out the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise was him being put into this show.
I hope we get another 5 second peek cameo of another character next season!
@@seb8905 I won't be watching it, so I don't give a shit
In the word of the great philosopher, Immortan Joe - "MEDIOCRE!".
In the words of the Humungus. "I'm gravely disappointed in your Star Wars...."
Every time the writers ran into an issue (which was a ton) they were reminded of their mantra, “BARELY AN INCONVENIENCE!” and changed directions on a dime 😂
Oh wow wow wow! Wow! 😁
Love your review. The worst thing about the show for me was how they present the Sith as "not that bad" while the Jedi were "evil conniving meddlers". My dudes! The dark side corrupts everything it touches. At the end of the clone wars Anakin wasn't in his right mind while talking to Padme and duelling Obiwan. His face was markedly changed by the dark side and oh here Osha was still all pretty... just with bleeding red light saber. The lesson they are trying to teach is that evil is not that bad but good is! How much does this seep into their kid shows too I wonder.
Gonna steal that quote : When you're writing for disney, it doesn't have to make sense, it has to be easy.
Putting Shrek in Star Wars was a bold choice.
Better be donkey and puss
Shrek is a better actor, more likeable (Charismatic) and sexier than this green skinned bald lesbian. I never wanted to see Leslie Headlands wife or husband or whatever. I especially dont wanna see her bald, with green skin in freakin star wars.
Your comment about Headlen projecting her & Harvey's relationship is SPOT ON
There’s actually people who are defending this show. Let that sink in.
Love and agree totally your reviews. Keep on doing the good work!
This is just a small thing but when Vader went to bleed his crystal in the comic, it took massive effort. It fought back. It showed him a future where he redeemed himself, killed sidious and surrendered to obiwan asking for forgiveness like it took alot for that to happen. Now lightsabers are just.. moodrings? Like wtf are we doing here guys lol
Cuz she "special"

The “is nothing sacred??” is pretty much how I’ve felt the entire time watching this show
That group of random Jedi were supposed to set up a "5 click Perimeter" but just stayed huddled up like Keystone cops lol.
Snarky jay I enjoyed your cussing even if censored it makes me fell better because I really cannot describe anything in the acolyte with a string of profanity
We could spend weeks describing the 100's of problems with this trash. One that no one has mentioned is during squid-game-guy's last lightsabre fight with Darth Sleaveless, there is a point where the lightsabres are locked together in a way that the fighters are pulling the sabres against each other instead of pushing. Basically, one of the fighters just has to let off the pressure to killed their opponent.
Also, when Squid-game-guy did the flying double kick, Darth Sleaveless was fully free and open to slice and dice but instead just held his lightsabre out of the way.
Peak lazy writing was Green M&M ordering some nameless knights off. The writers didn't give them names for green M&M to address them by, despite riding in a starship together. Disney gave how much money to this, $180M? Didn't do any QA oversight during the "creative process". Bad dialogue paired with stilted deliveries. So the show ends with the girl going with the guy who killed her friends, who were with the guy who regretfully killed her mother, who she killed upon his confession. Green M&M covers it all up, and heads back to the Jedi Temple to have a pint and wait for this to all blow over.
Specifically she ordered them to set up a perimeter at 5 kilometers. Instead they followed the tracker in a straight line.
@@BiggieTrismegistus To be fair, they may have all walked out there together while asking themselves as a group. “How are we going to cover 30 km of perimeter?!?”
"Sol, my old friend..." *throws Sol under the bus*
Probably that arson-burnt bus 🚌 in Leeds, England 🏴 the other day.
You forgot to mention that Yoda somehow de-aged before the prequels. 🤣
The message is that Headland is trying turn something good into something evil, because she is jealous that something so good and so successful was created by a man, and is just trying to tear it down, that is the only reason this thing exists. They don't care how much it costs them, they must tear it down. Such a shame that everyone can see through this & just dismiss it as a joke created by a crazed, delusional woman and carry on with the OG context as canon.
Headland literally said in multiple interviews that she likes and is drawn to powerful people that use their power how they want and that these people are misunderstood. That these people are not actually evil or wrong but rather just looking to live their life their own way.
Ladies and gentleman I give you Leslie Headland, Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant.
I think the Yoda thing was pathetic fanservice to the remaining shills.
Along with the 5-second Plagueis scene.
Felt so forced since people aren't sticking around for most of the main cast
they even had yoda looking older than he did in phantom menace lol
Being in this show aged the poor fu*cker. 👴
I don’t think the writers understand how distance and the 5 Senses work because not only is it hard to believe Osha would’ve been able to hear Sol, but they also had Yord use Macrobinoculars to watch a fight 20 feet away from him…
Well said, facts. Can't disagree with anything you said.
4:25 😹You got me good with _”Great Value Alf”_
So Osha has basically become Darth Stockholm syndrome. Amazing writing.
its what leslie learned from harvey weinstein
Having plagueis in there just felt totally tacked on, no nods to him throughout the whole series,so he just pokes his head out like I'm here too🤣
@TalaCruz and that right there is a perfect example 🤣
👋
Sooooooo, Lime Skittlehead appears to be bringing Yoda into this clusterfuck? 😶 Shure….why not, he was the only thing left unsoiled in the Star Wars universe….this puts a perfect finish onto this arc. They had to destroy the hero’s, because there are no such thing as hero’s anymore. 😢
You doing an immediate hot take on the episode is way more entertaining, as you don't hold back on your genuine disgust. The amount of 'beeps' in this review are pretty hilarious and you should do these raw takes more often 😆
Cussing beeps are always amusing.
I am thankful for the Acolyte series because it led me to your channel. Loved your 8 episode reviews of the series. Looking forward to the reviews of series 2 which they seem to be hell bent on making.
Hey hey hey… you take that back! The Holiday Special is a gem not a stain. 😂
Congrats on 100k! 🥑🥑🥑
As for Acolyte... they'll keep it going out of spite. If they end it, they'll be admitting defeat. They won't want us to be right.
Best thing to come out of the Acolyte was I discovered this channel. I can't believe 4 years ago I was excited for what I thought was going to be a sith-centric show. I saw the first episode, just watched Snarky's reviews for the rest. Sad.
I’m glad we’re out of this shitshow! The real entertainment was the people who reviewed this show and ranted on about it! Bravo bravo
Thanks for another excellent video showcasing your beautiful snark at work...!
So entertaining & amusing. 👍🏻
"Darth Malgus. A sith known for both his sacking of the Jedi Temple on Corusant and killing his lover to cleanse himself of weakness."
Lesley Headland: "This man is clearly misunderstood. The Jedi are clearly at fault here. And I bet his lover probably cheated on him too."
They added that Yoda scene at the last minute after they heard the complaints about no Yoda even though he supposedly leads the council at that time. The plot was predictable from the beginning. Darth Sleeveless was obvious by the second episode. They played the same past scenes over and over and nothing was really different. They claim it was a Rashomon style of story, but they obviously have never watched Rashomon. Every flashback should have been different, with obvious differences to show the different points of views, as no witness describes the same scenario the same, with small bits and pieces of new information. That's not really what happened here. The past was simply revealed over a long convoluted pace that was wrong for this show. The scenes just seem out of order with maybe a different camera angle. That's it. They took a well known Korean Actor and wasted his talents. This story was so rushed, which is all the more problematic by the short episode times. They didn't even take the time needed to tell the story properly or develop the characters properly. The "mystery" wasn't even very mysterious. Leslye Headland having to explain her reasoning and story plotlines in interviews clearly shows it was a bad story. You only have to explain your story when you write poorly. We were also promised it would be more like a Shaw Brothers film. I didn't realize they meant all the boring parts of Shaw Brothers. They should have just literally copied a Shaw Brothers film. That would have been better than what we got. I knew the High Republic was a bad idea when they announced it. Now I know how much worse it could be. If I were in charge, all of the High Republic, The Acolyte, Kathleen Kennedy, and all the people she hired, would be removed. It's clear they have no business being in the entertainment industry.
Very on the money summation. Pathetic and infuriating is my own summation of this absolute crap show, you just cant meddle with Star Wars like this, WTF are you doing?! Biggest abuse of power on the planet, consistent with what’s actually happening to our planet. Just writing this makes me wonder why the fk I still have Disney or any pay TV for that matter
Venestra being able to sense Smilo Ren from miles away just by standing on the ground yet every fucking episode Sol is completely unable to sense ANYTHING that’s happening around him at all times

Look what’s the point anymore. Headland even had the gall to say George Lucas influence in Star Wars was overrated… not joking look it up. Disney only wanted to buy the brand, erase what was done before so they could push with their own new improved Star Wars. Look at what they did to Luke, Han and Leila. Or the fact they decided to only keep canon the original trilogy and prequel and not the 40 years worth of stories we love so much. They don’t care. They thought we’d buy anything with the Star Wars name. And it comes down to this sh*t
