Maybe, but I think the culture has already flipped, in the same way far left people have started backing trump since he survived, shows and movies will start to leave liberalism as well
32:44 The Acolyte: Mae uses her lightsaber to give herself a haircut and somehow never sets her hair on fire. The Phantom Menace: Qui-Gon Jinn uses his lightsaber as a plasma welder to cut through a security door on the Trade Federation command ship. A scene in which chunks of molten metal are shown dropping to the floor on the opposite side of the steel door. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!
Daily reminder that Leslye Headland got where she is by knowingly allowing evil to happen, helping it happen, then throwing the person she was helping under the bus for self gain. She knew everything that happened was happening and stood by and let it happen.

Ah, I feel really sorry for the korean guy from squid game. They just hired him to ruin his hollywood debut from the get go. They really did dirty to him.
OSHA / Mae actress “who cares real name, she’s terrible” has the Whitest, dad ever…. and was hired at 4 for Disney…tough life Rough racist childhood, I bet..😂 with a pearl white Pops… The power of the Worst Cringe, and “Light WHIPS” Although, THEY, the many lesbos were sexy😂, and dressed to the 9s in an abandoned Rock Base…they just arrived at😅 And looks like “Chinese concentration camps”😅 chanting and moving like robots, brainwashed😂 Maybe the Weinstein assistant wanted this….obviously shes a trainwreck of damaged goods used to “taking advantage” and making more “damaged” like herself… Lucas said it best….”U write what u know”😅 but forgot the “fire extinguishers”😂 in a granite, dolomite, etc. hard, non flammable mountain
Saying that Anakin blew up the death star should disqualify you from participating in the Star Wars themed school play, not qualify you for a Star Wars show.
@@danieln6700 The actress sitting next to him is the one who plays the padawan... She tried, 2 or 3 times, to tell him to stop talking. SHE knew he was putting his foot in it. HE didn't.
What I find most impressive is somehow the writers thought that Osha mercilessly killing a broken man who made a mistake is a moral win and should be celebrated because girl power. How does the line go again... believe them when they tell you who they are.
@@nont18411you could argue that lying about what happened and blaming it all on Mae (who was presumed dead) wasn’t great, although nothing the Jedi did leading to the coverup was actually morally or logically wrong. I mean the “evil” action that he committed was rescuing Mae from being disintegrated by her mother, and somehow Mae missed that whole part. The coven was objectively evil, and basically everything the Jedi did was justified, if careless.
@@santimetur2no it is being told by Disney right now. But it’s definitely not a story that Walt would have ever told, even if he was somehow alive today.
That "actor" was also in Headland's _Russian Doll_ that she was given writing credit for though the two other lesbicans wrote that too. It was before he could afford a gym membership or back hair grooming, so phat and unkept was he. Just more gay circle of headland being recast because there really are so few gay ppl, irrespective of all the grooming and promotion for decades still trying to make them seem more represented in the general population. In the UK their health dept tried to find them all, like Pokemon, and they discovered there was less than 1%, so they rounded up. I doubt in the US it's much different. Nothing we see, hear or read from our gov't or corporations is verifiably true.
@@jeffreyspinner5437the alphabet community is all based in sex. If sex is removed from the equation they have nothing to define them. I have never seen a group of people so intent on celebrating to the public the kind of sex they like to have. The normal population is already obsessed enough with sex but it’s not celebrated to the public and to children. It’s usually kept private.
How to not get killed by Jedi: - Do not abuse dark side of the Force and live like a fvcking normal tribe - Do not create 2 unstable Force-sensitive children with same consciousness with the dark side and adopt some kids instead - Do not force the children to go through a dark side ritual involving sacrifice - Do not turn into a menacing smoke monster in an intense situation Shouldn't be that hard, right? Surely nothing can go wrong
It really annoys me that this show uses the Jedi as an analogue for modern day policing in America. It seems that writers today can't think outside their bubble of experience. There's hardly any depth anymore.
Hollywood really can’t wrap its head around the fact that somebody might be striving to be good or might just actually be a good person . Hollywood sees everyone as evil and nefarious, but then again I’m sure most people in Hollywood are.
Of course they can't, their entire existences is inside the woke bubble you mentioned. They're blissfully contained inside their little echo chamber dome. This is the product of that. Its so clearly obvious to those of us outside that dome how ridiculous these people are.
Conclusion: they put Star Wars' history in hands that don't like it. So, they try to rewrite the saga by their own, unfortunately they don't have connection with us, so they lost us.
Jedi: Where is your father? Osha: Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring, we’d make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. At the age of 18, I went off to evil medical school. At the age of 25, I took up tap dancing. I wanted to be a quadruple threat - an actor, dancer…
@@michellestr8998 You absolutely should. In fact, I have no idea why anyone would watch modern TV/movies. Late 90s, early 2000s was a golden age for comedies. Austin Powers, Anchorman, Zoolander, Team America, Dodgeball, Idiocracy, Tropic Thunder, Old School, Road Trip, Scary Movie, Super Troopers, Dumb and Dumber, and so many more. Hell, I'm gonna make a list of movies I want to rewatch now! Edit: Okay, there are far too many good movies. Most are post 2000, this doesn't include the multitude of war movies, and most of the best movies are from the 80s-90s. Historical/Fantasy: Gladiator, 300, Troy, LotR trilogy, The Prestige, Braveheart, The Patriot, Tombstone, Action/Crime/Police: Training Day, Old Boy, Snatch, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Crank, Seven, Lucky Number Slevin, The Departed, Taken, Law Abiding Citizen, Payback, Conspiracy Theory, Inside Man, Face-Off Any gangster movie with Joe Pesci, Most Quentin Tarantino crime movies, Comic book: Unbreakable, Constantine, Blade Trilogy, Horror(ish): Dawn of the Dead (2004), The Hills Have Eyes, Slither, The Ring, Quarantine, Splice, Sci-Fi: District 9, Equilibrium, The Butterfly Effect, Deja Vu, Minority Report, The Island, Repo Men, District 9, Equilibrium, Sunshine, The Mist, Daybreakers, Total Recall (1990) Post 2010 special suggestions: What we do in the Shadows, Cabin in the Woods, Dredd 3D (2012), It Follows Realistically, the quality of movies probably peaked at 2000. There are a bunch of movies pre-2000 that are miles better than what is on this list.
True enough, but from the clips I've seen (NO I have not watched a single second of this on D+, which I cancelled when they sacrificed Gina) this is the best acting in the whole thing. These characters actually seemed to connect in a vaguely human way, for just 2 seconds. Take it. It's all we are going to get.
They need to stop trying to say people who are criticizing the show are racist/homophobic or whatever. It just is not a good show - badly written, badly directed, badly acted, plus all the actors/actresses seem bored in every scene. Seems like whoever made this show just wanted to make a political statement and didn't care about quality.
I think the funniest part is that they tried to make the Jedi be as out of character as possible to make them villains but even then they were still in the right compared to the witches. There is no morally grey tale here.
Ignoring canon is like having a cop in a gritty, realistic cop series get out of a difficult situation by suddenly shooting lightning out of his eyes and then saying, "It's just a show. We can do what we want."
Seriously whenever people say this it's infuriating, like imagine at the end of True Detective Rust looks up and some alien monster decends from space at the last second. It being a show doesn't give you laissez-faire to write nonsense and have me eat it up.
Utterly disgusting betrayal of the canon. Badly written, acted, and directed, start to finish. Insincere, deliberately destructive, hateful and heartless. It would have been more entertaining to watch them set fire to the $180,000,000 it cost to make.
1. s.w. acolyte is not as bad is fans make it. 2. I can point out all types of errors, in all the original 6 star wars movies, but I'm not filled with absolute hatred over them. 3. s.w. acolyte was entertaining & would improve if it was 24 episode tv series, if fans demanded it. 4. the actors & actresses ranged from fair to awesome. good or bad the plot original. 5. you cannot expect star wars to be exactly the same it came out in 1977. different culture, different crew, different tech. 6. some parts are good & some are bad. 7. try to accept it all, with the expectation of it getting better by suggesting ideas, instead of making pure venomous comments. 8. if george lucas hates all the new material, then he should had done his best to continue with saga instead of giving fans decades gaps of continued film material. 9. also, with the exception of "the Mandalorian", it seems as though viewers hate every single new material from s.w. 10. If you hate all new s.w. material produced by disney, why do you waste your personal time viewing & then making negative comments? 11. star wars has never, ever, been a perfect saga.
The sick part is i GUARANTEE they somehow green light a season 2 because they are probably terrified to admit and recognize how absolutely horrendous this “all inclusive” political agenda driven garbage was
@@DarkCode yeah.... yeah NO, nothing else should ever come of this and the mere suggestion of such should lead to an immediate back hand coming your way.....

Dude it's insane that people even in these comments pay Disney at this point. They don't make anything good for children. They don't anything anymore good for adults. Even hate watching pays these people's salaries. I usually see people for some complete idiotic stance. Claim it's mean to point this out, that they are some how good paying these shows salaries, and do agree however the shows in fact do suck. Kind of makes anyone pointing out that point even more stupid in my book. You can watch shows meant for mentally lower humans, but I wouldn't admit it. These shows are meant for mentally broken human beings. It's not entertaining, it stupid. If you are paying for this, you already dumb in my view, if your watching this with your kids. I think you should be put in jail for children abuse, and human cruelty at this point. This show is an abomination, made for the lowest of lives.
How can they act like they don't know why people are angry with how they've treated this property. Especially after Generations have loved and shared this with their children for decades.
His ⬜ guilt was so strong, he punished himself by meditating on a different planet for 10 years, vowing never to return to Coruscant, because being homesick causes stone to burn and 'splode.
The amandla thing apparently means something in some native language, like girl power or something. What kind of parents do you have to be to give a child a name like this? Even X AE A-12 feels better than that
According to James Lindsay: Diversity means _Let us in._ Inclusion means _change things to fit our ideology._ He said once you let them in, it's over, and obviously he's right.
Lol, I'm still laughing, its just plain unbelievable that they actually wanted to say that the fans are bigots, homophobics,masculine haters when it's clear as the nose on their faces that the acting, writing, editing, costumes and set were terrible, the whole story didn't make any sense and was full of contradictory, this series totally messed up George Lucas's vision of Star wars
Where did it all go wrong that untalented amateurs were given control over multi million entertainment shows, eg: This garbage. Rings of Power. She Hulk. Thelma, to name but a few. .
I have not seen Acolyte, but have seen all the Star Wars films and recent TV series, which generally apart from The Mandalorian fast forwarded much of them. I am an old geezer 71 years old, thus I do not understand the jargon and humour of the young BUT after only14.29mins of watching this video I have not stop LAUGHING at how bad the Acolyte was, which rarely happens now when watching any so-called comedy TV and Films. And I have not just been laughing at the wise cracks by the Nerdrotic but watching the actual scenes without any wise cracks over the top, such as the 'Thread' with the Witches. So much of this series is embarrassing, amateurish and beyond belief was put out for distribution for the main purpose of making money. I will say this RUclips and keep for when I am down and want a good laugh.
What’s worse? The metaphoric diarrhea that is this show or Jedi Green Bean’s diarrhea she must have dealt with multiple times due to all the space travel? I wonder
Finally a Disney Star Wars show that brings everyone together, to dunk on. Headlamps must have some serious blackmail in his back pocket in order to -force- thread Disney to produce her horrible series.
I hope as long as people dunk on it, their not stupid enough to pay for it. Seems like some are. It's more stupid to pay for this crap, then just cancel and watch the reviews are something simple. Then these abominations thankfully can get cancelled.
Disney Star Wars - characters can survive being stabbed thru the gut with a lightsaber. Disney Star Wars - Jedi are easily killed by butter knives and force chokes.
Also Disney Star Wars - If you attack a Jedi with a weapon you will fail" from Smile-lo-ren Disney Star Wars - Smile-lo-ren kills multiple Jedi in the forest fight with his lightsabre I know they re-wrote some of his scenes half way through but OMG there's literally no one with half a brain cell or common sense or talent that realised that this line needed to be changed
I don't care what the creators of this show say. They did not watch the prequel series or really understand anything George Lucas was trying to portray in his original trilogy. It's insane how Disney can just destroy so much lore.
I have a coworker who LOVES Disney SW. And he saw the OG films in theaters. Just a weird cat. He even said Acolyte ep 3 was 'not that bad' and that he kinda likes the 'thread' stuff. Today, he straight up told me he no longer recommends the show, and that it's just a "terrible time". I find his critique pretty telling since he worships at the house of mouse, but he said when it was said and done, he hates how they portray the Jedi, that Jedi should stand for heroism, doing the right thing, and empowerment. It's telling how a real life Disney SW lover told me to skip this show, and his line in the sand was Jedi being shown as dumb, obsessed, morally weak idiots. I also had a random guy in a ChickFilA drive through window tell me he didn't like the show. (I had a SW shirt on) Just strange how this show is even losing the ones that stuck around after TLJ.
I have zero problem with different factions describing the Force differently. We don't even have consensus in the real world on how real physics works and what forces are. And it's not like the SW world has a Large Midiclorian Collider to smash Force particles to see what they're made of. As everyone has been saying, the show just sucks with all its inconsistencies & nonsense. And even if people don't realize it sucks, their subconscious DOES realize it, which is why they lose interest.
So Mae goes through ascension and gets the magic purple ball of thread, which ties her to her destiny... then changes her mind 4 times about whether she's a darkside badass pyro or a penitent prepared to reconcile. And then gets mind-wiped. Was that her destiny? To sit chatting with Vernestra like an OC lobotomy patient while switcheroo sis holds hands in the sunset with bad boy as they plan their evil plans? God it's awful.
I will say, Jung-Jae Lee's command of English phonetics despite not actually knowing any English to perform the role of Sol is pretty impressive. I'd say just as impressive as Leslye Headland's complete and utter ruin of the Star Wars canon.
@@anticitizenokapi4634 I can separate the character from the actor whom I no longer can take seriously. They should have recast luke with Sebastian Stan. (Winter Soldier)
In every business course, they should show how DEI destroys companies, and Disney should be on top as an example of what not to do. Now that’s a college I can get behind.
This so far is Star War's version of Marvel's Echo. The agenda is clear as day! No more heroes, no more morality, selfish agenda's and irrational emotional actions are "justified", pervert everything and hate all males because of unjustified jealousy and projection of ones own flaws from always choosing the few bad males to be with. Incredible show -1000/10
The promotion on the ACOLYTE was fukin crazy. I dunno about other countries, but in Australia there were so many ACOLYTE billboards and posters on buses n shit. Way more than I've ever seen for any other Disney plus star wars show, like way way more. I dunno why but they were really desperate for this show to succeed and reality is it was an absolute piece of garbage. The characters,pretty much all were so stupidly written. OSHA and Mae both flip flopped between good and evil so often and without any actual reasoning it was a joke. Venestra was creepily weird with that strange unblinking stare(massive serial killer/stalker vibez) The jedi bar maybe Jecki were all totally un jedi like. Even Qamir and Sol who both were played well by the actors had their characters destroyed towards the end. Sol becomes much more dark and selfish than he ever showed and Qamir the opposite, turns from killing 5 or 6 Jedi ruthlessly to becoming a caring (nice guy) to OSHA n Mae. We are so lucky this show has been cancelled, if that lady (Leslie whatever) had another season she seriously could of done a lot of irreversible damage to SW CANON, especially after she copped a lot of crap for how bad her show was. She may of just destroyed Plaguises story and character just to piss everyone off. Even if she was trying to make something good we're so lucky. Season 2 would of destroyed any high republic and Plaguises stories....RIP ACOLYTE AND PLZ STAR WARS DISNEY JUST WAKE THE FUK UP AND MAKE STAR WARS SHOWS/MOVIES USING REAL STAR WARS STORIES/CHARACTERS. U DON'T NEED TO CHANGE EVERYTHING, EVERYTIME THATS BEEN A FAIL. OMG JUST MAKE REAL SW CONTENT PLZZZ
All I can say about this is: "as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced". This is imo how the fan base felt. Early in the series "attack me with all your strength" Didn't her master teach anything about Jedi? For the love of God at least they should have at least have a basic knowledge of the order, but nooo. Also as I mentioned before, Steven Seagal has more range than this actress playing the twins...
That was the best Star Wars Parody since Spaceballs, and we almost see a pair of those in episode 6! Funny goofy Jedi, a Sex Symbol Sith, Wi-Fi witches, and twins that go back and forth from being good to bad, to stupid, and always with the same facial expressions. A story with a plot, that is not a plot that looks like a plot that makes no sense. Let's go for Season 2!!! YES YES!!!
I know this is hardly an original comment, but I really do think the major mistake was KK - it might not have been great if someone else had been in charge all this time, but at least it wouldn't have been hateful.
180 million dollars is almost as much money as it cost creating three Lord of the Rings movies, but somehow the producers for the Acolyte somehow didn't have even close to as much content produced as those three movies, nor did this production team offer anything of value from spending 180 million, rather stealing, that money because there is no feasible reason why this show cost that much. The Acolyte should force government inquiry and audit, where did all that money go? This was a clear money laundering racket, find out who stole the money and prosecute.
Yes, actually they should aor at least some share holders should sue for using company money not to obtain profit but for political propaganda. At least Kennedy should get in trouble for the hiring of her wife someone obviously not qualified for the job.
Dont Focus on the Money, its gone. Disney owns so many outlets and Companies within the US nobody will ever touch them and here is why. let aside all the media, actors ect. Disney is the MAYOR Tax income Source for CA. Almost 45% of all taxes in this state are going trough Disney. They're untouchable because if they ever chose to, Disney can effectivilly ruin millions of Lifes on a whimp and the State would probably go bankrupt within a year. thats the problem, not the actors or KK. Its how big Disney is and why its so dangerous.
Someone clearly doesn't understand the concept of inflation. The LOR movies were released over 20 years ago. The value of the US dollar has plummeted since then. Specifically the US dollar has lost 43% of it's value since 2002. $200 Million dollars in 2002 would be worth roughly $350 Million dollars today.
@@kingzach74 Inflation or not, the literal value of what was and now is are nowhere near the same, even if the same amount of money was spent for both ideals of this franchise was equal in value, if that is to be given and to be considered "equal," what is now being produced cannot even display its near the same to what the prior works offered. What was spent on this product is not shown in the latest product offered, there is an egregious lack of "value" that should definitely be perceived in this product for amount of money spent. What this looks like to me is money laundering or filling the pockets of valueless hacks that depend upon nepotism to retain their luxurious lifestyles and to the direct harm of those lending such funds. There is a clear lack of value over showing the "bang for your buck" that prior works offered.
I like how the witches say how dangerous the thread is and its not a power to use easily but just decided to create two human living creatures with it because they didn‘t want a man
The main problem with this show is that there were 11 writers over just 8 episodes, and it appears none of them read the other guys stuff. That's why the choices and arcs are all illogical and why it seems to jump around wildly with no real structure.
Mother Horny disappearing like that is pretty much a guarantee that she survived and supposed to be the mother of Darth Maul. She’ll just change her name to Talzin and be found on Dathomir before rising to become the leader of the Nightsisters and having a baby Maul and Savage Opress. It’s so cringe how could they not think of it? 😭
I will give modern Lucasfilm CREDIT for ONE THING: They're obviously doing this DEI (didn't earn it) nonsense to give marginalized (entitled and narcissistic) people a subsidy of competence and MONEY. But deep deep down, I think they KNOW they're too incompetent to REALLY touch ACTUAL Star Wars lore. (Like they haven't TOUCHED Luke Skywalker after Return, in between the shit show of the sequels - the one thing fans have WANTED to see. Their REAL problem is COWARDICE. They play it "safe" relying on EXPLOITING DEI trends for popularity, and telling stories around the foundation, instead of actually pushing the lore/story/universe forward. So good on them.
Hi all. I need help. I’ve watched a bunch of videos on this show and I still haven’t seen answers to the list below of what I believe to be sizable plot holes: 1. How does Sol know that Mae started the fire? 2. How are multiple characters able to continuously scale a mountain cliff with ease in almost no time? (Was it even necessary to make the characters do something so outrageous?) 3. Did Smilo Ren just “fly” to the top of the mountain? 4. How did the elevator work if the entire energy system exploded in the fire? 5. How did the Senator know about the investigation? Who told him? And then who else knew (and yet the case is still supposedly hush-hush such that the High Council didn’t know)? 6. If the goal of the show is create moral relativism and redeem Mae such that the fire was an “accident,” are we going to forget that moments before she literally said, “I’ll kill you?”
Sure, It will be a pleasure to help you! Here are your answers: 1. A good question, for another time. 2. THEY CLIMB NOW? THEY CLIMB NOW! 3. The dark side is a path to many abilities some consider to be UNNATURAL. 4. Somehow the elevator door has returned. 5. Many Bothans died to bring him this information. 6. First she was all the sith and then she was all the jedi. I hope you enjoyed, may the Thread be with you!
So now that its over I still fail to understand what Leslye Headlands qualifications were to head a near 200 million dollar tv show? Does anybody know? Are Disney just laundering money at this point or what the fuck is going on..
At the peak of my former career, I managed a business that turned over 50k a day, and had over 30 staff under my direction. It took me 10 years of hard work and proven track record, along with ongoing courses to get to offered positions like that. Leslie was an incredibly shady PA, and then next week she was a producer/director in charge of one of the greatest pieces of western lore in our history, with a 200 million dollar budget. Somebody make it make sense.
It’s a token position. She kept silent about things. She gets reward. Agenda over money at this point. Ask black rock why they’re cool with all the companies they own being ran by pedos and sex offenders.
Stenburg was chosen not because of her acting prowess but rather her sexual tastes. If she wasn't a lesbian i doubt Headland would of been so interested in her that she would actually build the Acolyte around her even though she wasn't even a great actor to start with.
Sidenote: Has anyone realized this Star wars project has the Least amount of Alien species? It's the least diverse Star Wars. It's mostly Humans. Also the locations are so bland & small. There's No impressive locations. There's no wide pan shots of interesting environments. The world is so claustrophobic. The characters are so shallow.
On the other hand, it stands on its own as an unintentional comedy jewel. I can't stop laughing every time I hear it, even to the point of having guilty feelings about it...
The worst part is the silly screaming of this black lady in the first row during the black lesbian girl boss space witch speech. It's killing me every time 😂😂😂
Hollywood has simply become unwatchable. It used to be the best by far. Unfortunately, US, UK, Canada and France has gone insane in their movies, TV shows, music, crime waves, drug addiction, and mass immigration. I've admired the West all my life. Now they all seem to have this woke insanity. The best movies of all time will always be from Hollywood: LOTR, Braveheart, Gladiator and tons of other movies from before 2005. But that's all over now. It's all woke insanity from here on out. So done with it. No longer angry. At this point it's just funny how people still get outraged about the latest woke abomination. It's time to stop the outrage and time to find better things to do with your time. All the best.
My favorite bit is the attempt at moral grey area's and the failure at the attempt. We are supposed to believe these Force witches are persecuted wrongly, that "some may see them as evil". Then they proceed to mind control a jedi into trying to kill his friends, seduce with tempting promises another into betraying his friends to the point he wants to commit suicide over it and so on. The "powers" might be morally grey, as you can do good or bad with them. But their actions speak of people who view any one not themself as disposable and worthless. They will do anything to people that get in the way of what they want. Oh and the "mother" even encouraged her daughter to stay angry and kill her own sister for daring to try and leave the cult. There really isn't much moral high ground to stand on, and yet the entire show is built around the idea the audience is supposed to sympathize with these witches.
Why did they use Tomlin from game of thrones to play a haunted old jedi. No wonder he looked so strange. They had a 17 year old playing a 45 year old man...🤦♂️
Its probably how they sold the show to Disney. Its standard practice to sell a show in that format (IP A + IP B, or IP A but different), since publishers want it that way. I honestly blame publishing more than the creators.
I got an idea. Imperitia ex machina. Spread it far and wide. If deus ex machina (god from the machine) refers to an outside force cheaply solving the problem for the writer, protagonist, antagonist or otherwise (diablos ex machina is BS) Imperitia ex machina, incompetence from the machine, refers to a force from with in the protagonist or antagonist that cheaply solves the writers problems. IEM usually relies on the incompetence of the reader in order to work.
Wrong, it's the worst Star Wars ever made...SO FAR.
Maybe, but I think the culture has already flipped, in the same way far left people have started backing trump since he survived, shows and movies will start to leave liberalism as well
Simpsons reference?
Omg ...you're right. That's so depressing.
Exactly. Just wait until Disney decides to remake the original trilogy to match the lore with their own.

What I find most impressive is somehow the writers thought that Osha mercilessly killing a broken man who made a mistake is a moral win and should be celebrated because girl power. How does the line go again... believe them when they tell you who they are.
And it wasn’t even a mistake. He did the right thing but the show wants us to think that it’s wrong.

@@BespinLukeexcept they gave it triumphant music and framed it like it was righteous.
@@nont18411you could argue that lying about what happened and blaming it all on Mae (who was presumed dead) wasn’t great, although nothing the Jedi did leading to the coverup was actually morally or logically wrong. I mean the “evil” action that he committed was rescuing Mae from being disintegrated by her mother, and somehow Mae missed that whole part. The coven was objectively evil, and basically everything the Jedi did was justified, if careless.

I do not remember Anakin ever destroying a Death Star.
Weirdly, neither does anyone... Hmmm. 😂
Ah, but if they play that clip often enough for long enough, no one else will either. Welcome to 1984.
It's canon that R2D2 is a lesbian, so Anakin blowing up the Death Star is just a matter of time.
That "actor" was also in Headland's _Russian Doll_ that she was given writing credit for though the two other lesbicans wrote that too. It was before he could afford a gym membership or back hair grooming, so phat and unkept was he. Just more gay circle of headland being recast because there really are so few gay ppl, irrespective of all the grooming and promotion for decades still trying to make them seem more represented in the general population.
In the UK their health dept tried to find them all, like Pokemon, and they discovered there was less than 1%, so they rounded up. I doubt in the US it's much different. Nothing we see, hear or read from our gov't or corporations is verifiably true.
@@jeffreyspinner5437the alphabet community is all based in sex. If sex is removed from the equation they have nothing to define them.

The normal population is already obsessed enough with sex but it’s not celebrated to the public and to children. It’s usually kept private.
"anakin killed the death star." took me a while to process exactly how stupid that is LMAO
How to not get killed by Jedi:
- Do not abuse dark side of the Force and live like a fvcking normal tribe
- Do not create 2 unstable Force-sensitive children with same consciousness with the dark side and adopt some kids instead
- Do not force the children to go through a dark side ritual involving sacrifice
- Do not turn into a menacing smoke monster in an intense situation
Shouldn't be that hard, right? Surely nothing can go wrong

Also, don't mind grape the Jedi or otherwise attack them.

It really annoys me that this show uses the Jedi as an analogue for modern day policing in America. It seems that writers today can't think outside their bubble of experience. There's hardly any depth anymore.
They can’t THINK…period.
It's not even their experience, they're just taking the propaganda and writing it in their "story."
Hollywood really can’t wrap its head around the fact that somebody might be striving to be good or might just actually be a good person . Hollywood sees everyone as evil and nefarious, but then again I’m sure most people in Hollywood are.
Of course they can't, their entire existences is inside the woke bubble you mentioned. They're blissfully contained inside their little echo chamber dome. This is the product of that. Its so clearly obvious to those of us outside that dome how ridiculous these people are.

Conclusion: they put Star Wars' history in hands that don't like it. So, they try to rewrite the saga by their own, unfortunately they don't have connection with us, so they lost us.
Jedi: Where is your father?
Osha: Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.
My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring, we’d make meat helmets.
When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe.
At the age of fourteen, a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. At the age of 18, I went off to evil medical school. At the age of 25, I took up tap dancing. I wanted to be a quadruple threat - an actor, dancer…

I have not seen Acolyte, but have seen all the Star Wars films and recent TV series, which generally apart from The Mandalorian fast forwarded much of them. I am an old geezer 71 years old, thus I do not understand the jargon and humour of the young BUT after only14.29mins of watching this video I have not stop LAUGHING at how bad the Acolyte was, which rarely happens now when watching any so-called comedy TV and Films. And I have not just been laughing at the wise cracks by the Nerdrotic but watching the actual scenes without any wise cracks over the top, such as the 'Thread' with the Witches. So much of this series is embarrassing, amateurish and beyond belief was put out for distribution for the main purpose of making money.

I have a coworker who LOVES Disney SW. And he saw the OG films in theaters. Just a weird cat. He even said Acolyte ep 3 was 'not that bad' and that he kinda likes the 'thread' stuff. Today, he straight up told me he no longer recommends the show, and that it's just a "terrible time". I find his critique pretty telling since he worships at the house of mouse, but he said when it was said and done, he hates how they portray the Jedi, that Jedi should stand for heroism, doing the right thing, and empowerment.
It's telling how a real life Disney SW lover told me to skip this show, and his line in the sand was Jedi being shown as dumb, obsessed, morally weak idiots. I also had a random guy in a ChickFilA drive through window tell me he didn't like the show. (I had a SW shirt on) Just strange how this show is even losing the ones that stuck around after TLJ.
I have zero problem with different factions describing the Force differently. We don't even have consensus in the real world on how real physics works and what forces are. And it's not like the SW world has a Large Midiclorian Collider to smash Force particles to see what they're made of.
As everyone has been saying, the show just sucks with all its inconsistencies & nonsense. And even if people don't realize it sucks, their subconscious DOES realize it, which is why they lose interest.
The Acolyte felt like a knockoff made specifically to be sold at the Dollar Store.

The promotion on the ACOLYTE was fukin crazy. I dunno about other countries, but in Australia there were so many ACOLYTE billboards and posters on buses n shit. Way more than I've ever seen for any other Disney plus star wars show, like way way more. I dunno why but they were really desperate for this show to succeed and reality is it was an absolute piece of garbage. The characters,pretty much all were so stupidly written. OSHA and Mae both flip flopped between good and evil so often and without any actual reasoning it was a joke. Venestra was creepily weird with that strange unblinking stare(massive serial killer/stalker vibez) The jedi bar maybe Jecki were all totally un jedi like. Even Qamir and Sol who both were played well by the actors had their characters destroyed towards the end. Sol becomes much more dark and selfish than he ever showed and Qamir the opposite, turns from killing 5 or 6 Jedi ruthlessly to becoming a caring (nice guy) to OSHA n Mae. We are so lucky this show has been cancelled, if that lady (Leslie whatever) had another season she seriously could of done a lot of irreversible damage to SW CANON, especially after she copped a lot of crap for how bad her show was.

Someone clearly doesn't understand the concept of inflation. The LOR movies were released over 20 years ago. The value of the US dollar has plummeted since then. Specifically the US dollar has lost 43% of it's value since 2002.
$200 Million dollars in 2002 would be worth roughly $350 Million dollars today.
@@kingzach74 Inflation or not, the literal value of what was and now is are nowhere near the same, even if the same amount of money was spent for both ideals of this franchise was equal in value, if that is to be given and to be considered "equal," what is now being produced cannot even display its near the same to what the prior works offered.
What was spent on this product is not shown in the latest product offered, there is an egregious lack of "value" that should definitely be perceived in this product for amount of money spent. What this looks like to me is money laundering or filling the pockets of valueless hacks that depend upon nepotism to retain their luxurious lifestyles and to the direct harm of those lending such funds. There is a clear lack of value over showing the "bang for your buck" that prior works offered.
I like how the witches say how dangerous the thread is and its not a power to use easily but just decided to create two human living creatures with it because they didn‘t want a man
The main problem with this show is that there were 11 writers over just 8 episodes, and it appears none of them read the other guys stuff. That's why the choices and arcs are all illogical and why it seems to jump around wildly with no real structure.
Who taught Osha force choke if she never completed Jedi training?😅
Probably the same person who taught Rey the Jedi mind trick. Which both are advanced level techniques.
"You experienced intolerable rathithm, tell us what's that like?"
"Someone told me 'no' for the first time." 😭
The Airplane movie references killed me! Thank you for the laugh Gary!

Mother Horny disappearing like that is pretty much a guarantee that she survived and supposed to be the mother of Darth Maul. She’ll just change her name to Talzin and be found on Dathomir before rising to become the leader of the Nightsisters and having a baby Maul and Savage Opress.
It’s so cringe how could they not think of it? 😭
Don't worry my goat Grievous will kill her in the end
Honestly...wouldn't even be that terrible of a turn out... Least its a somewhat thought out piece of lore and back story...
Don't give them any ideas...
This is better than watching the show.
I will give modern Lucasfilm CREDIT for ONE THING:
They're obviously doing this DEI (didn't earn it) nonsense to give marginalized (entitled and narcissistic) people a subsidy of competence and MONEY. But deep deep down, I think they KNOW they're too incompetent to REALLY touch ACTUAL Star Wars lore.
(Like they haven't TOUCHED Luke Skywalker after Return, in between the shit show of the sequels - the one thing fans have WANTED to see.
Their REAL problem is COWARDICE.
They play it "safe" relying on EXPLOITING DEI trends for popularity, and telling stories around the foundation, instead of actually pushing the lore/story/universe forward.
So good on them.
I'm so glad I get to abide in these ridiculous times with all of you my brothers. Great review nerdrotic crew!
I thought Rey was insufferable, but these clows take the 🎂
We may of been too harsh on rey,she had potential to be a amazing character-this show,does not and got canceled yesterday
@@oompaCookieNo. We were adequately harsh for the idiocy displayed. Remember Daisy said it was sexist to call her character a Mary sue.

If only the Coven of Witches had some OSHA regulations to prevent the fire from doing so much damage.
Who was the designated fire warden? Where was the rally point? This is not an OHS compliant workplace.
Jesus the intro. My god put these people in prison for the murder of a franchise. Holy fucking hell
Hi all. I need help. I’ve watched a bunch of videos on this show and I still haven’t seen answers to the list below of what I believe to be sizable plot holes:
1. How does Sol know that Mae started the fire?
2. How are multiple characters able to continuously scale a mountain cliff with ease in almost no time? (Was it even necessary to make the characters do something so outrageous?)
3. Did Smilo Ren just “fly” to the top of the mountain?
4. How did the elevator work if the entire energy system exploded in the fire?
5. How did the Senator know about the investigation? Who told him? And then who else knew (and yet the case is still supposedly hush-hush such that the High Council didn’t know)?
6. If the goal of the show is create moral relativism and redeem Mae such that the fire was an “accident,” are we going to forget that moments before she literally said, “I’ll kill you?”
Sure, It will be a pleasure to help you! Here are your answers:
1. A good question, for another time.
2. THEY CLIMB NOW? THEY CLIMB NOW!
3. The dark side is a path to many abilities some consider to be UNNATURAL.
4. Somehow the elevator door has returned.
5. Many Bothans died to bring him this information.
6. First she was all the sith and then she was all the jedi.
I hope you enjoyed, may the Thread be with you!
Tragedy of Darth Plaguies was having his first live action feature appearance in "The Acolyte"
So now that its over I still fail to understand what Leslye Headlands qualifications were to head a near 200 million dollar tv show? Does anybody know? Are Disney just laundering money at this point or what the fuck is going on..
At the peak of my former career, I managed a business that turned over 50k a day, and had over 30 staff under my direction. It took me 10 years of hard work and proven track record, along with ongoing courses to get to offered positions like that.
Leslie was an incredibly shady PA, and then next week she was a producer/director in charge of one of the greatest pieces of western lore in our history, with a 200 million dollar budget.
Somebody make it make sense.
Didn't all she really do was bring Harvey his special snacks?
It’s a token position. She kept silent about things. She gets reward. Agenda over money at this point.
Ask black rock why they’re cool with all the companies they own being ran by pedos and sex offenders.
She for sure had dirt on somebody
Stenburg was chosen not because of her acting prowess but rather her sexual tastes. If she wasn't a lesbian i doubt Headland would of been so interested in her that she would actually build the Acolyte around her even though she wasn't even a great actor to start with.
She isn't even an actor trying to pretend to be an actor lol
There was definitely some ‘strapping’ of the ‘on’ variety, during the ‘interview process’.
‘Jediabetes’ I’m fucking creasing 😂😂

I hate this fucking woke bullshit, sick and tired to see this garbage pushed in games, tv shows and movies.
If the whole cast just scissored, it still would have been a better show, and that's saying something...
that's sexist!! Now it's the power of womany

Sidenote: Has anyone realized this Star wars project has the Least amount of Alien species? It's the least diverse Star Wars. It's mostly Humans. Also the locations are so bland & small. There's No impressive locations. There's no wide pan shots of interesting environments. The world is so claustrophobic. The characters are so shallow.
And the few alien species are just humans with different skin color or horns...
How else do you expect they can keep the costs down so the launder the rest of the money they got?
That lesbian witch chant is seriously the worst thing I've ever heard in my life
On the other hand, it stands on its own as an unintentional comedy jewel. I can't stop laughing every time I hear it, even to the point of having guilty feelings about it...
The worst part is the silly screaming of this black lady in the first row during the black lesbian girl boss space witch speech. It's killing me every time 😂😂😂
Hollywood has simply become unwatchable.
It used to be the best by far.
Unfortunately, US, UK, Canada and France has gone insane in their movies, TV shows, music, crime waves, drug addiction, and mass immigration. I've admired the West all my life. Now they all seem to have this woke insanity.
The best movies of all time will always be from Hollywood: LOTR, Braveheart, Gladiator and tons of other movies from before 2005.
But that's all over now. It's all woke insanity from here on out. So done with it. No longer angry. At this point it's just funny how people still get outraged about the latest woke abomination. It's time to stop the outrage and time to find better things to do with your time.
All the best.
My favorite bit is the attempt at moral grey area's and the failure at the attempt. We are supposed to believe these Force witches are persecuted wrongly, that "some may see them as evil". Then they proceed to mind control a jedi into trying to kill his friends, seduce with tempting promises another into betraying his friends to the point he wants to commit suicide over it and so on. The "powers" might be morally grey, as you can do good or bad with them. But their actions speak of people who view any one not themself as disposable and worthless. They will do anything to people that get in the way of what they want. Oh and the "mother" even encouraged her daughter to stay angry and kill her own sister for daring to try and leave the cult.
There really isn't much moral high ground to stand on, and yet the entire show is built around the idea the audience is supposed to sympathize with these witches.
Why did they use Tomlin from game of thrones to play a haunted old jedi. No wonder he looked so strange. They had a 17 year old playing a 45 year old man...🤦♂️
8:12 “Frozen meets Kill Bill. I’m curious what that means.” Nothing, nothing at all.
4 hours of Elsa and Anna driving around in the Pussy Wagon.
Its probably how they sold the show to Disney. Its standard practice to sell a show in that format (IP A + IP B, or IP A but different), since publishers want it that way. I honestly blame publishing more than the creators.
I got an idea.
Imperitia ex machina.
Spread it far and wide.
If deus ex machina (god from the machine) refers to an outside force cheaply solving the problem for the writer, protagonist, antagonist or otherwise (diablos ex machina is BS) Imperitia ex machina, incompetence from the machine, refers to a force from with in the protagonist or antagonist that cheaply solves the writers problems. IEM usually relies on the incompetence of the reader in order to work.
