I do like that a lot of the High Republic Jedi are subtly (and not so subtly) arrogant, overly self-sure and righteous, and in contrast Sol leans more to the Qui-Gon side of the Jedi, bothered by how bogged down the Jedi can get in politics and understands their own arrogance.
dude it's like 4 year olds pretending to be jedi. The posturing is a joke.
No this isn’t arrogance. This is just blasphemy. “A Jedi only draws his lightsaber if he’s prepared to kill.” Wtf is that??? That is not remotely Jedi at all.
I really like Master Sol, he does remind me of Obi-Wan, but more tender. I want to know who the political enemies of the Jedi are, good chance the Sith are pulling the strings of those enemies.
More Qui Gon because Obi Wan does everything by the book.
When she said "attack me with all your strength" I started laughing because it felt like I was watching Dragon Ball Z or something.
By far the ONLY youtuber so far that actually sounds like a genuine review and not hating on the show, nitpicking, and just plain negative.
thank you!
Wave and retney are thhe only two that don't do hate videos. They stick to lore and the parts they like or love. I really like these two more than most others. They are really true fans!
Consume
@@WhiteStar762idiot
As I said in another post I guarantee 90% of all the creators who swore off Star Wars & declared they will never waste anymore time on Star Wars will put out videos bashing the show. Proving they are liars, hypocrites & frauds who are only chasing clicks & views.
No person who genuinely says they are done with something & never will waste anymore time & energy on it immediately talks about it everytime something new drops involving it.
I think either osha or mae is actually dead. I say this because something seems off and the odds of twins that havnt seen either other since they were a child have the exact same haircut 😂
I don’t care what they told you in school. Anakin Skywalker blew up the Death Star.
Luke blew up the death star
@@kingchaos4255no, he threw Palpatine down the Deathstar. /j
Jennifer Lawrence blew up the death star. 😂
Ahhh... I get that reference. 😂
No, Cleopatra blew up the Death Star.
Personally for me I wanted them to focus more on the sith then the Jedi again but that’s just my opinion.
Same I thought it was going to be about the sith
@@ayalovesgaming599 indeed
For sure, I love seeing the old Jedi but I want more of the sith. I especially want to see old sith arts like sith alchemy or true manipulation of the force…guess I will still have to wait
I'm sincerely asking, are you saying that you would have loved if they had gone with another project completely, or are you saying that there was anything about this show and the way it's been described and slowly introduced to us that made you believe that it would center around the Sith? I personally don't see what would have made you believe that this is what this project was going to be about (not that it was or even still is impossible), but I'm genuinely asking, I'm not saying that "it obviously wasn't what it was going to be about" or anything arrogant like that, I'm just sincerely interested (Sorry for the over-overstatements, but this is youtube, and some people are so instinctively arrogant that it's not uncommon for some members of the community to assume that everyone is being sarcastic, arrogant, or just mean for the sake of it lol.)
@@Lanwarder okay?
Anakin Skywalker was nine years old when he joined the Jedi Order. Not eight.
He knows nothing about Star Wars
Commooooooon maaaaan! Anakin blew up the Death Star! Everyone knows that!
@AussieDadAndrew he 100% knows more then you
May the force live long and prosper with you or whatever.
@@BiblicalCosmo😂😂😂😂 bro he googles it and watches it like any other fan. Stop glazing.
I like that they set up the jedi early in the season so we know where they're coming from when the sith finally show their cards
I just gave my Star Wars Episode X: The Empire Strikes Again script a high five right now for being the best SW story available for fans to engage with. I screen recorded myself scrolling through it and uploaded those videos in 4 acts onto my RUclips channel.
i too thought it was slow to start, i wasnt up in arms like half of the critics or reviewers, and i choose to reserve judgement until i see the entire series instead of just 2 episodes.... also i have a rule of 3 in place, where if i watch something i need to see at least 3 episodes before i know if i like it or not.... i appreciate your honesty about it and that you arent just up in arms over woke culture like every other review out there in my youtube feed right now.... while woke culture is a modern problem that needs to change it doesnt seem fair to listen to everybody saying that the series is a flop or that star wars is dead, etc etc when ive seen shows and video games take 10+ hours before it starts to take off. so thank you for not doing that and id just like to put it out there that not everyone has knowledge of how it was in the old and high republic days and before that, or know the differences in how the people back then were and what each era was like so alot of early reviews might be misguided and unfair
I enjoyed this review. I’m still not convinced that this series will be worth watching, but I liked that this review seems to remain impartial throughout, sighting both positive and negative elements. We need more reviews like these. Great job, @theStupendousWave.
I hear that the master is actually darth plagues & that their changing him from munn to human
With the death of master Torbin it leaned into the whole "Jedi aren't what they're made out to be" thing. I'm really exited to see where this series goes from here. I think they have been doing a really good job so far.
Exactly! “From my point of view the Jedi are evil!”
But if he wanted to die, why didn't he let her kill him, why would he be ok with suicide but not letting her have revenge?
It doesn't make any sense.
@@robertmccalley7413there are plenty of better examples in starwars lore of the Jedi not being magical space commie sheriffs.
@@ZeSgtSchultz that's a good point. I think he maybe thought it would be less vengeful if he did it him self may trying to save her a little bit by admitting he did wrong?
The Jedi seem like tyrants in this show, they seem just as corrupt and self serving as the acolytes. The way the Jedi said someone is practicing the force without approval or whatever. They seem like they like holding power in the political arena 😂
I feel like this show receives a ton of uncalled for hate, and it's refreshing to have a review that's not "its bad because its Disney" vibe.
At least we have Dune...
Dune 2 was good but it had many flaws
@@DaG.O.A.T. Still great, Imagine if you could retcon those flaws...
@@Maddog-xc2zv”I hate sand” George Lucas was a terrible writer and Disney is only cleaning up his mess
@@ProudCommieDisney is only pissing on what George left us
@@ProudCommie"Your snoke theory sucks" nobody cares if you hate sand.
I think its great that they finally are telling a whole new story, instead of trying to continue and tie in everything that has been done before, offer stupid cameos and selling toys.
Well i think there might be a new droid toy comming
The prison transport scene killed it for me. How the hell is a suspected force using Jedi Master killer allowed to just be put in a basic prison transport unsupervised? Also the Carrie-anne Moss bait and switch was a bit predictable.
prolly cause the jedi order is basically peaking in arrogance during this time period
Pretty sure it's been known for a long time that she was gonna die in that fight
@@IrrelevantPerson arrogance and a complete disregard for protocol in regards to the handling of a suspected criminal of that nature are two separate things.
It's been known a long time Carrie Anne Moss dies at the start. The bait and switch would be if she isn't actually dead and the twist is it is all a Jedi plan to out whoever "He" is. Just an idea haha
“I hate sand” George Lucas was so bad man
As a diehard Star Wars fan who hasn't been a huge fan of Disney's Star Wars content...this was not bad at all. I think the key piece of the mystery being ruined was the only thing that made me go meh but everything else has been good. Hope it gets better tbh
If they revealed it in the series opener, it's not a key piece to the mystery
Would love to see what the budget was for them to create a show rated Not bad
I also thought it was good … I don’t why people are being negative when exploring previous eras is gonna be insane… imagining a bane or revan and seeing their power compared to these characters would be sick
@@cloudmaster182I also at first assumed it was gonna be trash but was super surprised … the preview made me think it wasn’t even gonna feel like Star Wars
@Lightbearer777 tbh I get that the love action stuff has been very hit or miss, but a lot of the negativity is weirdly driven by politics and has nothing to do with star wars itself, it's really strange
I thought it was pretty good. It shows the Jedi at the height of their arrogance, and how they started to focus more on politics instead of actual justice. I feel like there's potential for it to be pretty great, depending on how it's executed
I'm really hoping for plagues, teniburis, and bane
I’m tired of toxic Star Wars channels. Thanks for keeping these videos up! I must say this show has me hooked. Surprised how much more the intro with the first 2 episodes captivated me than Obi Wan.
Ahsoka was great but the lightsaber choreography took away some of its shine…
It’s clear that KK and her acolyte Leslye Headland want to make the Jedi seem as evil as the Sith so they can then get the viewer to sympathize with the force witches or whatever the hell they are. They want Star Wars to become gynocentric just like everything else Disney touched these days.
For all their flaws the Jedi have a high moral standard that they strive towards. The Sith have nothing like that and the characters in the acolyte equate victimhood as righteousness.
The reason we love Star Wars is it provides a framework for “playing” with morality in a fictional way. Light vs Dark, Good vs Evil, Jedi vs Sith. They are moving trying to move Star Wars away from this. What they’ll find in the end is that as soon as you move Star Wars away from Good vs Evil it ceases to be Star Wars. The Acolyte is provably NOT Star Wars.
So no, Star Wars is not evolving. Star Wars will evolve when it’s story telling is under the stewardship of people who love it and understand what makes it great. People who know the feeling we all get when we see that blue text right before exploding into the Main Theme and opening crawl.
This is the most genuine review I’ve seen! Thank you for focusing on the actual story being told and not the controversy surrounding it!
I enjoyed the first 2 episodes tremendously! Can't for even deeper cuts and more new tidbits to come through.
I greatly enjoyed the two-part premiere of _The Acolyte_
I wouldn't call it perfect, but certainly promising. I was, however, a tad disappointed that a certain character was killed so quickly becuz I was hoping we'd see more of her as the story progresses.
I clearly see the influence of the Jedi of the Old Republic in this series, in how the Jedi dress as well as their members having yellow or even purple lightsabers besides the standard blue and green. But I can also see the Jedi already being on the path of their own self-destruction by how Master Vernestra Rwoh wanted to make an example of Osha when Osha was mistakenly believed to be a jedi killer, purely becuz Rwoh was concerned by the idea of word getting out to the Jedi Order's political enemies that a former padawan had killed a jedi. Not to mention I felt the knight Yord Fandar was kind of arrogant and pigheaded.
Master Sol is the only Jedi I see having true value for the Jedi way while also retaining a genuinely compassionate mind-set as well as being open minded and willing to engage in out-of-the-box thinking.
But what truly intrigues me is a theory I came to while watching both episodes... and that theory is, that it is possible that Osha and her twin sister Mae are a Dyad, two who are one in the Force, the light and dark contrasting one yet defined by the other. Osha experienced a Force vision (despite her Force abilities atrophying since her resignation from the Order) where she recalled a poem she and Mae shared: “You’re with me, I’m with you, always one, but born as two. As above sit the stars and below lies the seas, I give you, you, and you give me, me."
This seems to indicate the sisters are connected by more than blood and tragedy, and I noticed subtle clues during the two-parter... that leads me to believe that the Jedi (specifically Indara, Torbin, Kelnacca, and Sol) are the ones truly responsible for what happened to Mae and the fire that killed her and her sister's parents since Mae is hunting thz four jedi specifically, having crossed Indara and Torbin off her list
Another clue I saw was Jedi Master Torbin's willing suicide and his heartfelt apologies to Mae before he died. Mae gave Torbin the choice between either confessing to the Jedi Council or taking his life, and Torbin chose the latter. This indicates that whatever wrong Torbin did to Mae was so awful that he could not bear the shame of confessing to his peers in the Order and so chose the coward's way out.
This leads me to suspect that thz four Jedi did something to the sisters in an attempt to forge between Osha and Mae a Force Dyad, but something went wrong, either causing Mae to light the fire or something or someone else lit the flame and Mae was blamed. Even Osha believes Mae lit the fire and killed their family and becuz of that trauma she wants revenge and is unable to let go of the past. Whether the dyad succeeded or not, there is indeed a connection between the sisters tho it seems Osha felt the connection given her visions while Mae did not, believing her sister was dead until she saw Osha with her own eyes.
Finally, the Master... I do indeed believe, or at least strongly suspect, that he is a Sith, and the fact even Mae duz not know his identity tracks with the Sith being so deeply in hiding as they prepare and conspire against the Jedi and the galaxy. I believe the Master is testing Mae, determining whether she is worthy of becoming his apprentice, and the words he stated do indeed resonate with what the Sith ultimately achieved, in destroying the "dream" by turning the galaxy against the Jedi and bringing down everything Jedi worked, built, and stood for. This indicates the Master is likely the Sith Master, as in he succeeded in overthrowing and killing his own master to take his place and so is now looking for a worthy pupil to carry on the Sith's secret legacy
I'm enjoying _The Acolyte_ very much and look forward to where it will take us!
Reminds me of the Sequels. Mandolorian and Asoka series felt like Starwars. This is off like Sequels
This show is so awesome as a Star Wars fan I was impressed. I was very interested in the mystery, and Acolyte shows you don't need a "Skywalker connection" to tell a great Star Wars story.
My favorite so far is Master Sol.
I was hoping we could get a Yoda cameo in the series, but apparently we won't.
Really wasn't that bad at all.. I haven't not liked much of what Disney has done but this so far has been pretty decent
its funny how the only people saying they liked this and thought it was good are usernames with 4 numbers after their name. this is well known bot behavior by now. What a waste of money, trying to manipulate people into thinking somethings good when it isnt.
@pkrmkn31 bro just check the guys profile and you can clearly tell its not a bot. Relax bro people are aloud yo have different opinions than yourself
@@pkrmkn31 your username has two numbers. Are you a half-bot?
Acolyte was good.
@@pkrmkn31bro are you fucking insane, this is the most ridiculous copium I’ve ever seen in my life. The show is peak so far, on par with andor for different reasons. Cope
That mask worn by the bad guy in this series (nicked named by some fans as Smile Ren) has to be the worst mask in the history of Star Wars. Zero imagination, can’t believe that the same entity that brought us the storm trooper and Darth Vader helmets brought us this lame abomination.
Just cry... lol
@@salud7432 first day on the internet?
Its not the same entity. This new lucasfilm is a disney abomination
Yeah, I didn’t like Kylo’s mask and now it just looks like they’re trying to justify using useless masks. I find the hooded silhouette of Sith Lords like Sidious and Maul much more elegant, dark, and mysterious. Vaders mask and even Grevious’ mask served a purpose, Kylo wanted to copy granddaddy like a brat
That mask is pretty cool actually. Looks sinister.
what i have to say that those 2 episodes for felt more like star wars than all Andor episodes combined.
i just hope we see more of that sith soon because man... that little speach he gave in the last moments of episode 1... bravo.
This show has a lot of potential and the story is intriguing! It’s not perfect, but it’s made me interested more than Andor 🙄 ever did. Looking forward to more episodes!
The only disappointment here was that Carrie Ann Moss got very little screen time. I like how it's a century apart from the Skywalker Saga, but it is a different era.
She might get more screentime from flashback scenes or flashback episode.
@@gabrielduran291 I can only hope. I figured if Moss was able to rock her role as Trinity, then she would make a badass Jedi Master.
This was a great video, hey Stupendous, could you make a new video on why the empire ground forces lost so easily to the Ewoks on Endor, even after the Empire knew the rebel secret base was on Endor, and even had the advantage, strategy, and the means to easily crush them, they were easily overrun, and defeated by the small Ewoks that used staves, stones, and slingshots, and some old fashioned wooden traps, while the Empire had blasters, and soo many means to mow down the Ewoks like they were nothing, they should have easily beat the Ewoks, and yet failed miserably. I think it would be an interesting video.Please and thank you if you do it.
I think acolyte is actually quite good so far. I like the story line can’t wait till next week
smh People are so consumed with wanting to hate SW that they can't see decent Star wars right in front of them. OF COURSE Disney could still screw it up in later episodes, but any youtuber saying this was "terrible" is just pandering to mindless haters and just for views. I liked the first 2 episodes of Acolyte. The look and feel was right, I liked the aliens, I like all the actors in all the roles (so far). I really liked the prison ship escape /crashing onto the planet scene. I like how she failed at her attempt at Force TK to grab Pip. I liked the warden droid. It wasn't breathtaking, but the first 2 episodes weren't half bad. And they *almost* had real SW music (almost!). Hope the show gets better.
I'm not consumed with hate.
If I see something bad, I say it.
This show starts out with the line "attack me with all your strength" as we watch a Star wars MMO character finish up the "kill a Jedi with each type of weapon category" challenge. I don't want people to hate everything, but I do want people to use their brain every once in awhile.
I'll wait till it's all out to binge
You get it 🥂
This show is horrible.
YESSSS, it's getting WORSE if that's Even possible. That's because the show runners, two women, HATE Star wars, think it's stupid and ridiculous and that Nerds are pathetic. Yea, there a GREAT ATTITUDE to have in those running the show, how pathetic
I was really hoping for a Sith series, but of course we were misled.
Being a Star Wars fan is weird because now even though I know I don't really like a new show, I still feel compelled to watch it.
No way this man just said this show looked good
I really hate the current meta of light vs dark is purely a lifestyle choice. Good vs evil is not a wholly "us vs them" scenario.
Someone needs to sit some of these writers down and explain the difference between good and bad since I guess their parents weren't around for them.
Isn’t that the point of this era tho, like there are the Jedi who are good even tho the viewers see the flaws and the Sith who are evil but viewers can see why they would be a sith
It’s just a show u people are insane
Why would the writers "get it", when society as a whole these days doesn't understand the concept of actual "Good" and "Evil"?
@@natecward8322I agree, and this show is setup to show how the Sith were able to come back into power. Jedi were NEVER meant to be perfect. Fundamentally good yes, but flawed. Obi Wan and Yoda wanted Luke to kill Vader, didn’t believe he was capable of being redeemed. They were also so doggedly committed to their traditions and rules that Yoda very nearly refused to train Luke. Had it not been for Obi-Wan, Yoda would likely have told Luke to kick rocks. The very rise of Palpatine shows the flaws of the Jedi.
Ignoring the Jedi’s flaws and pretending they are 100% good is ignoring all of the established cannon. For instance does anyone think that all parents give up their children willingly to the Jedi when they are force to sensitive? I can’t imagine there would be many parents at all who would agree to that. So how would the Jedi manage to recruit at all if they didn’t take children by either physical force or legal threats.
@@lilshawn2810settle for mediocrity
Sidius says to anakin about plageius,its story jedi wont tell.He wasnot joking,lmao.
I very much liked the Acolyte so far! But I'm still very much concerned that they break legends/or canon with revealing too much of the sith and/or retconning the (outstanding) plagueis novel.
Actually super intrigued in the plot and very much enjoying the characters and love how the environments look and feel. Very prequel like imo.
It's way too soon to determine wether it's worse or better in terms of story and implications for the lore (Maybe we should wait to know the story before judging the impact of the story....), but from a cinematic perspective, I thought that this was interesting. It felt more like an original movie split in several episodes.....The Mandalorian 100% feels like a series...Andor was kind of in between....to me this felt a bit like a 80's-90's movie but in episode form (so far).....and I have to say that I enjoyed that aspect.....(Not that I don't like the two other shows....I absolutely loved Andor as a whole, and loved many episodes of Mando). Parts of the movie reminded me more of The Matrix (You could assume that I'm talking about Carrie-Ann Moss, or about certain shots during combat scenes, but mainly I'm talking about the ambiance.....when we first see the main character waking up in her ship...the set, the overall feeling/ambiance...) Anyway, I'm positive so far.
I’m loving the Acolyte, it’s accurate and awesome.
They are keeping the nosedive for episode 3
Nobody hates Star Wars more than Star Wars “fans”.
@@TheArtkawif I bought Star Wars and filmed a 2 hour movie of me putting the dumbest concepts into cannon, would you still enjoy it because it has Star Wars in the title?
If it’s shit, it’s shit. Rouge one as good and the only good thing Disney has done.
@@ttomproductionzAndor and Rogue One yeah
@@TheArtkawnobody has less respect for the lore of star wars, than the current creators. Many of us have read it our entire lives, as it's been out for 47 years. But now they are just sh!tting on everything we liked about the extended universe for multiple decades.
@@TheArtkawduh huh. What a brainless statement. Why would a person who could care less hate something? They also wouldn’t like it either.
Sol is great will be a favorite, alien variety great. Story is good very intrigued, thought Master Indara died little easy could see the innocent misdirect coming a mile away, fat Jedi and person playing Yord is a bad actor. Has potential looks beautiful. It's good I love a whole new era has been opened up this is much needed a breath of fresh air.
So correct me if I’m wrong but at this time Yoda is still Grandmaster and Darth Tenebrous and Darth Plagueis are the only Sith
I mean, we are talking about the same Star Wars that now you don't die from a stab from a lightsaber. 😵💫
Well I guess it depends on where you get stabbed. It burns and melts. If the attack is quick and stable, there is no bleeding and the wounds on the inside would fuse from the melting. The only issue would be losing an entire organ in the strike, rendering you incapacitated without all functioning organs.
@@OfficialJanitor lol shock alone would prob kill you but the truth is that the amount of energy it would take to cut through and cauterize a wound would immediately turn the liquid in your body to plasma and you would explode lol
I think it’s pretty stupid but it’s really not that big of a deal just some lazy writing
@@chocomalk
Sir stop that you can’t explain logic to a Star Wars fan it makes there head hurt and then they get angy and say dumb things
@@chocomalk Why👏🏼didn't👏🏼Sabine👏🏼die👏🏼but👏🏼Savage👏🏼did👏🏼 lmaoooo
It’s too early for me to make a judgement yet, but it definitely has me feeling meh. I’m hoping there is some good plot points/fights later
Apart from being empty….. with no underpinning clot except a basic murder “who done it” and “who is under that mask”? The music wasn’t loud enough I could barely hear it and it was the wrong music for the show because the music sounded like typical Star Wars bits and pieces from different shows edited together but incoherent
Never heard of the borash vow so if I spelled that wrong help me lol but I would love a mini series of a jedi master who made a mistake then took this vow and had a journey
I think it was the Jedi masters using the force for their own personal gain such as mind reading, the Jedi don’t do that that’s a dark side tendency…bro with the mini dreads doubled down saying that Anakin destroyed the Death Star so we were doomed from the start…
There’s a difference between mind probing and being able to determine the emotions/ascertain information from the thoughts and intentions of another. Jedi actually are taught to use this more often so they can do their job more efficiently. It caused no to the other person since they’re not just forcefully ripping their thoughts from them.
The Force whispers information to Jedi who open their mind to listen, and other beings can betray their thoughts due to their own fear.
I thought it was pretty good. Nothing groundbreaking but solid action overall
Literally stfu. there is nothing good about this shit.
The acolyte is such a fire show , I’m enjoying everything about it since I’ve been watching it currently 🔥
The first 2 Episodes are pretty good
Feels like The CW made a Star Wars show. The good looking young faced cast who look like Suburban teens, even the jedi robes are all clean and look new like they've never seen battle, everyones clothes seem so pristine like they just opened brand new cosplay gear lmao
Does a soldier walk around in peace time in BDUs that got torn up and bloodied from when they were shot? Why would these Jedi in a time of relative peace be wearing battle worn robes? People DO like to wear clean clothes. There are a lot of things that I found dumb about the show so far, like Mae leaving the poison vial at the scene of the crime, using a fire extinguisher in space (the fire wouldn't be there if it wasn't being fueled by something leaking out of the ship, there's no oxygen in space for a fire extinguisher to dilute,) why is Osha suddenly having these visions now but Mae is not, why does a small knife barely penetrating kill a Jedi Master when a lightsaber through the guts doesn't kill anyone anymore (possibly poison?) why did the Jedi let Mae's accomplice go without interrogating him about Mae's master which he clearly knows about, etc etc.
There are enough actual criticisms to make without scrapping the bottom of the barrel for "Jedi should wear battle damaged robes all the time."
It’s the high republic era lol the Jedi are not at war.
@bluemoondm8629 clothes are too pristine, the clothes don't even look like they've been worn before, like they just got them at the Jedi Old Navy store. The cast looks like the Star Wars equivalent of a buncha suburbanites from a cushy background and not like...a monk order that lives simply. They look like they eat only organic food from the Star Wars Whole Foods equivalent and the makeup on the aliens looks cheaply done, more Star Trek than anything.
@@RealParadox85 You know they Jedi aren't poor, right? Yes they don't own many things, but they probably do eat very high quality food to stay in the best shape they can. This is a time of peace, these aren't war torn veterans. I agree the alien makeup for the near humans isn't very good.
@@RealParadox85 you’re upset because the Jedi look presentable 😂
"it is just getting started" agreed 👍
I’m enjoying this so far and look forward to seeing where it goes.
I’ve had some ups and downs with Disney Star Wars shows. I really enjoyed Mandalorian and Ahsoka. Boba Fett and Obi-Wan were fine. Andor was a mixed bag for me. The prison arc was awesome but the rest was boring and forgettable.
So far I’ve really enjoyed the show. Other then a small Problem I have with it the story seems interesting and the concept of a darkside vs lightside twins are Cool
The Acolyte was fantastic idk what the haters are seeing, seems theyre hating just to hate
Fr
Same with the doctor who
Listen to the stuff behind the scenes, you’ll understand why
I thought it was boring
Most of the haters are going on what the content creator haters online are saying
I like it so far. I'm hoping the sith are darth tenebrous and his master. The time seems to line up for that
I want to see what’s next excited for next week
at this point I belive this is the final split from "og" fans and the prequel and on "new fans". "og"s are gonna hate this show no matter what and you can see it everywhere. But I think a lot of people are right in that this is where star wars needs to go. This is far more interesting the Kenobi and Boba Fett even if the writing or acting isnt to par its not bad enough to complain. but yeah im gonna enjoy this show even if the vocal minority is doin there thing like always.
It is fun so far. I look forward to see where it goes.
Are we going to get a yoda cameo?
Thank you, cause Yoda was alive and well during the high republic if it only 100 years before the clone war era. 🤞🏽really hoping to see a younger yoda scene or two getting some shine time.
Show creator confirmed we won't be seeing Yoda in this
"Anakin".....destroyed the Acolyte.
“I hate sand” George Lucas made such a mess and Disney is cleaning it up
I really enjoyed these first 2 episodes. No complaints here. REALLY SOLID start, no issues with pacing story or casting. Bring on episode 3.
I really enjoyed the first two episodes, can't wait to see the rest of the season.
Personally like the Acolyte like two episodes how first have question who the Sith Acolyte was sense first suspect seem be innocent and I like that they are playing with a twin dynamic in the story wine in the dark one light do like how close their to the lore and like the mysterious surrounding the story excited see more of show especially some characters became my favorite
I love the first two episodes Acolyte so far of to a pretty good start
Very telling that he doesn't review episode 3 which reveals the force is female.
@@chiquita683Episode 3 is not even out, how should he Review it? And in pretty much all Reviews it was said that Acolyte is not woke or female
@@chiquita683because he hasn't seen it
@@chiquita683 Macho?
@@Philipp766 So woke or female are swear words now?
Anakin was 9.
The first two episodes were dope. There's definitely a different flavour to this series, and it was refreshing. Excited for the rest of the series.
i really loved these first 2 episodes i dont understand the hate
What lost me was how a Jedi Master died to a simple distraction trick. This is Jedi honed by battling the Nihil. This is almost as bad as putting Luke Skywalker on an island and having him sulk as a hermit. The 2nd Jedi's death by suicide? A Jedi wouldn't do this. They don't give up in this manner. Life is too precious. 2 deaths don't create an answer to an error. The vow is made to become stronger as well. It doesn't create a weaker force user.
The cinematography is far too bland for this era. Especially the inside of their Jedi transport. Good grief, a bunch of spare parts during the Golden Age. There were some excellent references, but overall, it turned out to be lazy writing and moving further away from the original Star Wars films and story. Not closer.
I hope things pick up and just focus on the sith, I barely started the episode but when they showed the Jedi I turned it off… I’ll continue watching it but just hope it gets better and darker
I quite enjoyed the first 2 episodes, I don't really understand how some felt it could've been slow because the plot and main cast we're introduced and driven forward so quickly my only complaint is with Mei and her "fight me Jedi" dialogue it sounds so cringy and so out of place I wish it was more like the second Jedi on her hitl list where it was a more stealthy assassin approach with few words said although I can't complain too much because the choreography of the fights is fantastic and when watching i was too immersed to realize the show is supposed to be more about the sith and I do hope it gets back to that but overall it looks like good Starwars to me and good Starwars that's not a animated show something we haven't had since andor
I really do not want them to make the jedi out to be the bad guys you can have them be flawed but at the end of the day there the good guys
Lucas already did that
@@ChildOfTheWilderness They where flawed not the bad guys
Could you do a video on why Chewbacca did not recieve a medal at the end of A New Hope? I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the good work.
"We need more unlikable characters"
The stupendous wave, honestly sometimes i wish you spoke the truth when it came to yiur reviews in this series, maybe it will be revewled in your resction video.
This seriss is an insult to star wars, the hand to hand combat looks weak, theres nothing that gives you the sense of power or rage when carrie-anne and other lady fights , honestly from watch thst fight there was no way that lady could kill a master jedi, that scene was handled poorly.
The idea of aesthetics i give it to them, disney have never fsiled in that bit, but performance wise the dialogue and characters were flat and unbelievable.
Its a combination of a whole lot and its very telling that eboever handled this series is very inexperienced
The musical score, is desd in this series, it doesnt play to the needs if the story at all, even when its played it fades or is swalkowed up by the irrelevance of the actions on screen .
People keeps saying rhe story is good, but honestly nothing is captivating about this besides the fact that you as thr viewer know the creators are holding out some sort of information which you want to discover
Yeah, this "acolyte" is going to need a bunch of magic to happen to enable her to beat actual Jedi based on how weak she's portrayed. But it's like having a probe droid conveniently where someone went to hideout when they want continued conflict and strife. To me it's just lazy writing and so hackneyed.
Good start for this show
So far this series is not awful but it’s not amazing, I like the story so far.
I love that they copy Ben's desert garb, as if that's what all Jedis wore
Its evolving, just backwards.
Lmao
I really enjoyed the first episode. I think people are complaining too much and focusing on gender/race.
I have some Jedi in my Star Wars Black Series collection and this is how they operate. It’s lead by Luke Skywalker and the Jedi in his order that I’m making is spread out across the galaxy in different Jedi temples. And the Jedi in charge of the different temples have weekly hologram meetings with Luke. But Luke still allows them to have attachments like he has them do in Legends
good to hear a fresh opinion
Are you telling me that people who hated the Acolyte show are prequel trilogy haters? Are you telling me that the bad reviews the show is getting is coming from prequel trilogy haters and that people are lacking understanding of the Acolyte show?
Or you know they haters are the ones hating on the writers and actors who say it is gay star wars is gay now go watch the interviews they care nothing for star wars as long as they make it gay.
@@UnearthCreations but is the show gay? Or are you just getting your information from other people? When you get your information, you can’t be going around saying what you heard somebody else say. You have to have the facts surrounding it.
@@UnearthCreationsyour so insane
@@myronstokes5585 are you okay buddy? the show runner herself stated in interviews that the show is gay and they are trying to make stare wars gay. now admit you are wrong and cry about it
@@pkrmkn31 be quiet!
I would rather listen to this video describe what is happening with this show rather than watch the show itself
Might as well just pretend star wars doesn't exist at that point lmao. Stick to the original 6. The show is good, man. Ur loss alone
To all the people saying it's brilliant, good and all this praise while looking down on those who criticize the Acolyte, just wait until episode 3.
But then, some people still think the last jedi is good, so they will continue their cope streak they've been on since 2017
The Last Jedi IS good.
@@officermurdoch4120 Cope harder 🤣
Well red Twylik seems out and the shape of head does not look like Tenibris. So could Plaguis be under that mask 😷 is it possible
This show needs to take advantage of the period they are in and use YODA right away.
YES🔥
No
What I like about this show is getting away from all the future characters. It’s time to move on
Is yoda alive during this time?
Yeah, haven't seen the show yet but the time frame makes him alive and well into his lifespan.
He is, and he was already the grand master at this point, don't know if that will change in this show tho
No, he was only 100 when he died 😂
Yes which is why this show makes zero sense
wdym wasn't Yoda about 800-900 when he died?
They're gonna mess Yoda up. Wake up sheeple!
This shit is not Star Wars man and does not feel like Star Wars aside from minor details
