They destroyed the EU and the entire Plagueis Novel which is my favorite book of all time to put him in this piece of shit. FUCK OFF. For what so now he can no longer be the wise and powerful sith he was originally but now instead got his idea to create life from witches and threads great love to see it.
The furry's betrayal made the least sense. He literally risked his life to stop her in the previous episode and had absolutely no reason to switch sides.
Almost like LeBron telling his son he can play at a level he clearly can't. Bronny & Leslie Blockhead need to go back to school or some minor league places, because they aren't ready for the pros, no matter HOW rich their daddies are!!
Not to mention the actor in laying their characters doesn’t have a single ounce of talent to differentiate between the two. God she was dreadful I found myself laughing at her tears and rolling my eyes when she does/says anything serious. Talentless doesn’t begin to describe It.

@@nasis18 Exactly. I'm sure Lee Jung-jae's international career isn't over just yet, as the professional reviewers on Rotten Tomatoes are still very positive on this series.
Which is dumb because with that logic, anakins lightsaber would’ve changed colour A. When he killed the Tuskan Raiders B. When he attacked the Jedi temple C. When he fought obi-wan on mustafar Yet, somehow, it remained blue through all of that. Hmmm.
Jeremy Jahns said it best. Disney buying Star Wars is like the Joker in the museum in the Keaton Batman. You've got this beautiful gallery full of lore and you just have your sticky paint covered hands of insanity all over the place.
I'm honestly surprised by how much damage they managed to do in just the final episode alone. Like after the first seven I thought my expectations were rock bottom but they bought a drill and took me on a trip to the center of the earth with this one....
Well. It kinda goes with the current state of society. Nothing surprising anymore ! At least the nightmare is over. Although star wars has died with it. Sad, very sad.
I was mad enough to SPIT. I wasted hours of my life for this utter betrayal of the only decent character on this show. The twins are ... I have NO words for these 2 characters that switch motivations and characters at the drop of a hat. No, I'm wrong. They HAVE no characters.
@@aleksander8497 I don't think he was condemned for being male, I personally think the show would be a lot better if Sol apologized for his mistakes and Osha still killed him. That would make a more interesting story, that Osha was so angry that she couldn't accept forgiveness. Idk tho.

I honestly feel bad for Lee, as he was apparently a Star Wars fan as well. Even though English isn’t his first language he manages to be one of the best actors in the show, despite the awful script. I hope this project doesn’t ruin any future opportunities for him.
I pray he distances himself from this as much as possible and goes on to bigger and better things. Like, the Acolyte doesn't even get a mention on his CV. Lee just dusts himself off and carries on with life like nothing happened.
Lee Jungjae is already very well established in Korea. He has no shortage of roles or money and he probably just did this for fun and/or to try and break into the western market. Either way he will be fine lol
I was lucky enough to be a kid when the original Star Wars movies came out, no Internet, just went to the Cinema and was blown away. This seems a million miles away from those days!
Yet there are still a number of folks defending it and it seems to focus on the people like us that don't like it all being "sexist". I know I am not sexist. I just am frustrated by the poor storytelling and bad cinematic characteristics. It is like arguing against a wall so I just don't bother. I am quietly going to move on. Healthiest thing one can do. To the "Drinker": thank you for giving us insightful yet very entertaining reviews. That was the "best" part of watching "The Acolyte": looking forward to your reviews!
They defended while they thought there was still hope and they could still help Disney.. Once they say there was no hope and it was a sunken ship, they immediately changed tone to try to save their credibility
Mark Hamill didn’t even have to act in it. He’s a miserable deranged hermit who thinks of Trump 24/7. Star Wars is more cooked than Vader on Mustafar.🔥🗑️🌋
TLJ is not an inch better now. It is just that these kinda trauma cause the basal ganglia to fire more diffusely. It slips into subconsciousness but if you rewatch it, you will again feel that sting in the heart when characters make no sense.
Seeing Plagueis brought in for a cameo made me shout out loud, “OH COME THE F_CK ON!” It just ruins canon more and makes Anakin’s birth even less special.
Actually, I'm not entirely convinced people did write it; the whole thing feels like something vomited up by some mindless AI trained on literary tropes with literally no idea what it's saying, let alone how those tropes must be restricted by things like physics or causality, particularly the stuff like stone buildings burning down, people travelling half-way across the galaxy and back as casually as if they were just walking into an adjoining room, and literally motiveless grand betrayals.
@@tommcewan7936 It's true. I asked Microsoft Copilot to "create a woke film script in the style of Star Wars" and it printed out stuff that's indistinguishable from Disney Star Wars. Everyone should try. We can laugh at the results here. My favourite part of the script I got out of Copilot was: "Ayla and her team return to the Galactic Alliance, where they are honored for their bravery. The film ends with a hopeful message about the power of diversity and unity in overcoming challenges." I also liked: "Ayla confronts Darth Vex, emphasizing the importance of unity and understanding."
This. Goes to show. Education system for learning, writing and nods to "critical drinker" critical thinking concerning character, plots and endings. All gone.
Here's another excerpt or two from that script I got out of Microsoft Copilot: Star Wars: The New Dawn, Scene 3: Assembly of the Team. Ayla, a young Jedi Knight of mixed heritage, is sent on a mission to investigate the disturbances. Ayla meets her team, including Kara, a non-binary pilot, Zara, a Twi'lek engineer, and Ryn, a former stormtrooper seeking redemption. (I asked Copilot which heritages Ayla has, and it came up with half human half Mirialan. I asked for a picture of that, and got a black girl with a giant afro. I asked for Ryn's description and got "hispanic"). Kara: (Smiling) “Hey, Ayla. I’m Kara, your pilot. My pronouns are they/them. Ready to take us wherever we need to go.” Ryn: (Nervously) “I’ve got a bad feeling about this.” Scene 4: Mysterious Force. Ayla's team travels to a remote planet where they encounter oppressed locals. Scene 6: Sith Battle. Darth Vex seeks to exploit divisions within the Galactic Alliance. Ayla and her team stand at the entrance of a dark, foreboding temple. (I asked for Vex's description and was told "Human White Male, Late 40s". I asked for a better Vex and Copilot gave him a combat droid). Ayla: (Determined) “We stand united, stronger than you can imagine.” Kara: (Raising their blaster) “We won’t let you tear us apart.” Ayla: (Focused) “I fight for peace, for unity. That’s something you’ll never understand.”
If this gets another season, that's my confirmation that $180 million budget was an embezzlement scheme. There's no other way they could afford repeating this disaster.
It's fascinating how people say that prequels graphics didn't age well and 24 years later Coruscant (and everything) looks worse in a multimilion dollar TV show...
I like how, previously, Bazil was suspicious of Mae, even attacked her and seemingly told Sol so that he could stun her. Then, as soon as she woke up and she escaped, Bazil sabotaged the ship so that she could get away. So, he was responsible for both her capture and her escape, all seemingly only hours apart.
Does the space gerbil even talk? Do we have any idea of his motivations? Was there some scene where Mae Jedi mind tricked him? Or is it just complete utter bullshit writing?
Her lightsaber turning red while activated is so stupid. So, at that moment, she "bled" her kyber crystal by using anger and the dark side which turned it from blue to red. If that's how it works, then why did Anakin's lightsaber stay blue the entire time he was fighting Obi-Wan on Mustafar? I'd say he was even angrier and in much more despair, so much so that he lost control and choked the one thing he loved the most and tried to save and tried to kill his mentor and father figure immediately after. This is another reason that Disney's bleeding the crystal BS is stupid and I dislike it so much.
They have no idea how anything in star wars works. They just keep making up crap. I'm glad this travesty has brought us all back together as a fandom though.
@@zzzzzzzzzz_me Filoni Star Wars is not real Star Wars. Helicopter lightsabers, force teleportation and invisibility, "bleeding" crystals that choose the wizard, I mean the Jedi, time travel in Star Wars and many other travesties are all from the mind of that hack.
I made a much less articulate comment regarding this, thanks for using the lore accurate words and citing an event like Anakin on Mustafar. Totally grossed me out seeing that reach. That was the best way to visualize internal struggle? Looking through the whole IP we find loads of lessons of how to demonstrate a character's inner conflicts. Sad
when you re a good guy, your lightsaber turns blue, when you re evil it turns red, when you re hungry, it turns yellow, when you re constipated it turns purple
I think this show is coming from a specific socio-philosophical point of view. When a cop tells a guy "Stop reaching for your pants" fifteen times, and then shoots the guy when he reaches for his pants, there's a certain segment of the population that view the cop as the villain of the story. This show was written by people that think if a lesbian space witch turns into smoke monster and starts vaporizing her daughter, and is then killed, that this killing is a completely unjustifiable action. Except normal people look at this sequence of events and go "Yep, I would have put her down as well." The writers of this show fundamentally don't understand the nature of perceived threats and their logical consequences.
Given in about a half an hour this video has 71,000 views and the show’s 4 most recent episodes have a fraction of the reviews I would assume this is true. I realize not everyone reviews it but still.
@@attilacsakberenyi1291 Pickle-Rick was a fantastic character with great charisma and re-watchability, not to mention meme-ability. Charisma-vacuum here had none of that.
I can explain for the morally confusing character like this: They wanted them to be “morally gray,” but have no idea how to write such a character outside of making them do bad thing, then good thing.
@@markdevlin150you realize grey/gray are same thing right? You also realize ALL words are made up? Spelled, pronounced, and used completely differently by region, race, creed, etc etc etc. So if you understand whats said WHY would it matter how its written?

@@markdevlin150 It means you serve yourself and fuck anyone else. Youll rescue a village and then exploit the tenants for protection money until something more lucrative comes up and then you'll leave without a word. You'll take mercenary work for an evil Baron to stamp out a rebellion and then once your contact is complete you'll kill him because you disagree with him selling the captured rebels into slavery. You'll pick a mans pocket or break a kids fingers for trying to pick yours, but also give the money you stole to a downtrodden veteran begging money for food. You serve your own moral compass and don't much fret over the damage done or the lives lost in pursuit of your own goals. Deadpool is a good example. Gignomai from The Hammer.
Apparently Osha can find it in her heart to understand and forgive the Sith that murdered multiple innocent Jedi just doing their jobs, including an old friend of hers and one that she was starting to develop a bond with… But the second her old master, that cared for her for much of her life, turned out to be responsible for her mother’s justified death over a decade ago, suddenly she wants to force choke him to death. Makes sense.
@@guardianprime437From his perspective, she was transforming into some sort of monster and apparently draining her daughter who was starting to evaporate too. And he was already on the mistaken assumption the witches were planning to sacrifice the girls because this plot is contrived as shit. But no, apparently she was "turning into the Force", whatever that means and taking Mae with her. What does that even mean? Can it be undone? Were they escaping? Dying? No idea. So he stabs the witch and she goes "b-but I was gonna let Osha go…" instead of starting with that instead of acting hostile then turning into fog Baphomet while her other daughter is burning in a room. This show is unhinged.
@@abdieljove2011 in other words, the females of the story make no sense and only make things more confusing as time goes on. Just think, this is set during the High Republic, a time when the Jedi were at their peak, supposedly.

It's not so much that Disney owns them than that critics depend on being invited to events, given access to content and being part of the professional circles to work. To do that, they need to stay the heck away from sensitive talking points because the far left famously loves eating their own for even the slightest misstep. So once a show has been deemed "progressive", they can't afford to be critical until the tide turns. They have to wait for general sentiment to signal that it is okay to dislike the show before they can actually level criticism. Until then it's stunning and brave because anything else means they lose their job. If they hop in too soon, they get excluded. No more invites, no access, no quotes and links. Might even get removed from the list entirely so that their ratings no longer appear on rotten tomatoes to begin with. Not defending them, mind, caving to this nonsense means that their output is essentially worthless for the intended purpose of telling people if a show is worth watching, but there are reasons other than blatant bribery that they all tend to follow the same notes.
I wouldn’t say it’s THAT bad when it comes to production, but it’s really bad when it comes to writing and lore. They just put in Yoda and Plagueis and Ki Adi Mundi to give themselves any connection to Star Wars. So many small, annoying errors like saying mekneks are doing the jobs that R2 units are for, when it’s any kind of astromech droids, not just specifically R2’s. That’s how stupid these people are, they just write down things they have no understanding of, and since R2 is the only droid they’ve ever seen, must be that…
"Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith so powerful and so wise he spent all his time on a desolate island in a dark damp cave spying on a diverse couple..."
His chance to be Hollywood star is tarnished if not annihilated with acolyte, but Korean cinematography is gaining traction even beyond Hollywood anyway
Lee Jung-jae was disrespected by the writing, being the only actor trying, and in universe his character being shit on by green bald lady. Sol deserved better. I hope Jung-Jae gets more roles and recognition despite this shit show
Who read the script and signed the contract? Him. He deserves what happened to his character, he willingly put himself into the situation. He didn't need to, yet still did it for whatever personal reason of his. So he gets no simpathy, him and all the other actors putting themselves in such positions.
its great all these years they had the same eating habits, training regimen and no added distinctive signs like long lasting injuries or quirks...very convenient.
ACTUALLY, Kyber crystals have been known since ~2300 BBY to possess conditioning and volumizing properties for all hair types. This was described in the 1995 SW novel "Lore of the Mos Eisley Day Spa" as discovered by the book's protagonist, the Wookiee stylist Pantennne.
I was so confused why 1 person had to stay behind instead of the twins and premium Ezra Miller escaping together. The best explanation my husband and I could come up with is their spaceship only had 2 seats and they didn't want to share a seat
I have the suspicion the Acolyte was written to a large extent by a Chat-Bot like ChatGPT or something like that. The inconsistent and illogical behavior of the characters, among other things, would indicate that, since those Chatbots often diverge from or completely ignore previously established facts.
I am 100% hundred percent sure that a pretender and faker like Leslye Headland would use it because she would never sit down for hours and actually do hard work... She even said in a interview that first you lie and take the job.. Then you pretend you know how to do it.. She used chatGPT 120%
As someone who uses Chat GPT quite regularly for writing short stories no... Just No. Give Chat GPT just an idea and what comes out is far superior to the Acolyte. Its scary how good it is.
even ChatGPT would have come with something better, considering it is a learning algorithm that follows rules and commands/prompts, thus it would spit something half-way decent, if a bit stale in terms of writing material. This level of inconsistency can only be achieved by half-baked and half-assed "writers" that had no respect for story flow and story-telling, too busy chugging the Kool-Aid of the *Message* . Honestly, it's not even a story. It's simply a mish-mash of poorly thought out ideas, heavily influenced by the writer's own bias. There is no reflection; no lesson to be learned from it; there is no morals to be glimpsed from it.
I think the worst part was the lightsaber slowly turning red. If that's not the most ham fisted, superficial interpretation of the Star Wars Universe then I don't know what is.
There's a comic where Darth Vader has to make a red lightsaber crystal and it is a process that involves killing a Jedi, disassembling their lightsaber, and pouring dark side energy into the crystal to align it to the dark side of the Force, turning it red. Other methods include making synthetic crystals, which are typically red from their manufacturing. As far as what remains of SW lore, a lightsaber can't just change color because the wielder is seduced to the dark side.
"Wait, lemme get this straight. You can anticipate enough to block laser blasts with a lightsaber, but you can't anticipate enough to prevent someone poking you with a taser?"
I have a type 36 fully automatic plasma ray gun! Jedi “i have jedi training, the force, a lightsaber, and reflexes like you couldn’t believe….” Did i mention i have a taser? Jedi “Fuck”
"What was the point?" - There wasn't one. Modern writers are so terrible they don't even have a point. They don't know that they are supposed to use the fictional events to convey a message of some kind. They are just inexperienced kids with no life experience howling into a void of pointlessness. Pathetic.
It's manufactured "plot twist!" drama that is superficial and just there to fek with the viewer who they know will be so bored and uninvested in a moment they'll be wandering off trying to pick what comes next. Unfortunately writing plot and characters who change things up but who still think and act like actual people is hard, and the best they can do is emotionally crippled morons who change their motivations in (at times psychopathically) short time frames
"They are just inexperienced kids with no life experience" I think this is a key point. Hollywood writers used to be adults. People with spouses, wartime service, and full lives. Now they're manufactured, disposable drones churned out of leftwing factories (universities) and dumped into a machine where they sit on committees with other people just like them. They write what they know, which is nothing. It's pathetic.
I’m a primary school teacher. This “what’s the point of all these meaningless interactions?!” kind of story writing is exactly what I see from 3rd grade girls.
I was trying to explain the writing to my mom and compared it to first year creative writing in college, but even that was too generous, so I eventually compared it to my sisters pointless, meandering stories she'd write in middle school.
with any luck, your 3rd grade girls will be taught to do better than this 30-40 something entitled muppets since you witnessed and learned from their 180 billion dollar mistake
0:56 Star Wars now has Steven Seagal quality of writing; introduces something out of the blue, and abandons it. As Space Ice puts it: "And it is never mentioned again!"
A good name for "Charisma vacuum" would be "Strong female directors lesbian lover who definetly didn´t just get the job because she´s scissoring the director"
They assassinated Yoda's character by making him complicit in framing an innocent Squid Game Guy for the murder of several Jedi. One more hero from the OT "deconstructed" as an asshole by Disney Star Wars.
@@TheGoodHunterXIIIVernestra (Green Jedi Master) shows up to his chambers and says, “We …need to talk…” (The implication is she’s either going to BS him about Sol having supposedly wiped out the 8+ other Jedi … which Yoda will somehow accept without detecting Deception - or issuing a further investigation … OR even worse, he’ll go ALONG with the conspiracy / cover-up 🫣…)
i like how yoda was the only one who could see into the future well because he was a 900 year old master but the 20yr old girl can do it with no real training because reasons
A minor thing that blew my mind was when Master Sol was chasing what's-her-name-can't-keep-them-straight through the asteroid belt (one of many that seem to plague the SW galaxy), his gopher sidekick for some reason decided to pull wires out of the wall of the ship and sabotage it in mid-flight! When Sol wrestled his ship down to a safe landing, instead of fricasseeing the little shit, he stalked off like nothing had happened! Then the gopher was treated like one of the gang again when reinforcements arrived! Either the characters or the writers are too stupid to be allowed to continue.
Ikr! The motivations of the characters are all over the place, beaver guy actually tried to fight Mae cause he suspected her as not Osha. And then suddenly saves Mae? Wtf?

@@bruce0816Mae didn’t actually kill anyone. All of the witches died because Indara disconnected her Wookiee friend from their spell and that was it for some reason… they just fell over and died like a bunch of idiots. God, this show was bad
I love that you said "Intellectually exhausting" because that's exactly it. I find the entire thing exhausting. Even when I was trying to watch it in the beginning, I'd end up exhausted and irritated. Eventually, in the middle of episode 6 I simply turned it off and literally went to clean off my deck. THAT was more entertaining.
1. The Jedi approach the witches with regard to Osha 2. The witches initiate hostilities 3. The progress of events causes what would seem to be a clash between Sol and Mother Aniseya 4. Mother Aniseya is in motion to transform into something resembling the Mind Flayer -- a move positively threatening in appearance 5. Sol stabs her in self-defence 6. She dies saying she was simply going to consent??? How did folk at Lucasfilm go over this and say, "Nah! It'll be fine!"? Did no one ask: "Why does she have to do the transformation thing instead of simply consenting?"? Additionally, how does Lucasfilm expect us to perceive the Jedi as bad through this sequence of events?
I got rid of it when I heard about what they are doing with the Acolyte. Never watched and not going to support Disney. One thing I'm a bit disappointed about is that they gobbled up National Geographic...
the craziest thing about Sols death/character arc in general is that you get the impression that Leslie and the rest of the creative team thought that we as an audience would be championing his failure and eventual “comeuppance.” it’s the same way many have pointed out that Han Solo’s death in TFA is normally the sort of death you reserve for a VILLAIN character, not the hero of the story. (getting stabbed, falling off a freakin’ cliff into an explosion, etc.) The bottom line is, while flawed, Sol is arguably the most morally upstanding character in the series, and even a decade ago would easily be portrayed as a heroic figure at the least, and the protagonist of the story at most. You can almost feel how this whole episode they’re attempting to frame him as a traitorous “Peter Pettigrew i deserve what’s coming to me” type, when in reality- Weasel boi betraying him, Osha/Mae choking him out, and the entire freaking Jedi order throwing him under the bus just ends up leaving a bitter taste in the audiences mouth. Long story short: I’m sick of Heroes getting punished in these stories. #SolDidNothingWrong
This show went through a multitude of reshoots and rewrites. My theory is Sol was portrayed much worse but they didn't have the spine to go through with their own story idea that nobody wanted to see anyways (the Jedi being bad) so instead they rewrote it all to be a confused mess with no real villain.
I went into this saying "screw any reviews, I'll decide for myself, enjoy the good, ignore the bad." I came out of the season end with nothing but a feeling of utter mediocrity at best.
“Darth Plagueis” is hands down my favorite Star Wars novel. James Luceno, the author, manages to take an almost throwaway beat in the Prequels and turn it into a gripping gangster story plus a fascinating philosophical look at the Force from the Sith perspective. The most Disney could spare him was three seconds crawling out from the rock he apparently lives under. Fuck. Right. Off.
Disney burned old canon so they could build their shitty replacement on top of it, never forget we lost kotor 3 reven,nihilus,Keria and 1313 to this company.

You forgot the worst part, the final scene with Yoda. If they are implying that he covered all of this up, it severely undermines him as a revered character or sets him up to be completely inept if he knew about this and did nothing before Palpatine.
Just trying to pull down all the revered characters so you can crap on them subsequently. That way their ambiguous and nihilistic worldview can pat itself on the back and substitute itself for what was previously "paternalistic" (in a good way). These people seem to despise any sort of objectively decent viewpoint that doesn't accord with their highly revisionist views. They'd say that's "nuance". I say that's ideology presenting itself as reality.
Having Plagueis the Wise just lurking in a nearby cave as all this happens is about as good an idea for a reveal as having Palpatine at the colosseum in Episode II disguised as a hotdog vendor.
This is what a waste of $180 million looks like. You can teach an old dog new tricks, you can’t teach Rebecca Henderson how to act or Leslye Headland how to write.
Yes, that green bald headed thing has one expression in every single scene its in. Truly stunning acting and the green paint job looks truly stupid. It makes her head look wider at the top than at the jaw line...but maybe she is really like this and the make up is just accenting it....The only reason she got that role is because she is doing Leslie Headline...or Lesbian Headlock or whatever her name is...

The furry's betrayal made the least sense. He literally risked his life to stop her in the previous episode and had absolutely no reason to switch sides.
they got their episode count slashed so they had to tie up all loose ends, no matter how poorly, due to the ending episode.

I honestly feel bad for Lee, as he was apparently a Star Wars fan as well. Even though English isn’t his first language he manages to be one of the best actors in the show, despite the awful script. I hope this project doesn’t ruin any future opportunities for him.
nah it wont hopefully plus he always far more on his game when he is acting in Koran movies and show than Hollywood abominations like acolyte
I pray he distances himself from this as much as possible and goes on to bigger and better things. Like, the Acolyte doesn't even get a mention on his CV. Lee just dusts himself off and carries on with life like nothing happened.
good for him his character got deleted, no chance he has to come back for season 2 and can cut his losses.
It would only take season 2 of squid game and theyd all be back in board.
Lee Jungjae is already very well established in Korea. He has no shortage of roles or money and he probably just did this for fun and/or to try and break into the western market. Either way he will be fine lol
I was lucky enough to be a kid when the original Star Wars movies came out, no Internet, just went to the Cinema and was blown away. This seems a million miles away from those days!

It’s so hard to believe people actually wrote this script, got paid and they actually filmed it.
Actually, I'm not entirely convinced people did write it; the whole thing feels like something vomited up by some mindless AI trained on literary tropes with literally no idea what it's saying, let alone how those tropes must be restricted by things like physics or causality, particularly the stuff like stone buildings burning down, people travelling half-way across the galaxy and back as casually as if they were just walking into an adjoining room, and literally motiveless grand betrayals.
@@tommcewan7936
It's true. I asked Microsoft Copilot to "create a woke film script in the style of Star Wars" and it printed out stuff that's indistinguishable from Disney Star Wars. Everyone should try. We can laugh at the results here. My favourite part of the script I got out of Copilot was:
"Ayla and her team return to the Galactic Alliance, where they are honored for their bravery. The film ends with a hopeful message about the power of diversity and unity in overcoming challenges." I also liked: "Ayla confronts Darth Vex, emphasizing the importance of unity and understanding."
This. Goes to show. Education system for learning, writing and nods to "critical drinker" critical thinking concerning character, plots and endings. All gone.
Here's another excerpt or two from that script I got out of Microsoft Copilot:
Star Wars: The New Dawn, Scene 3: Assembly of the Team. Ayla, a young Jedi Knight of mixed heritage, is sent on a mission to investigate the disturbances. Ayla meets her team, including Kara, a non-binary pilot, Zara, a Twi'lek engineer, and Ryn, a former stormtrooper seeking redemption. (I asked Copilot which heritages Ayla has, and it came up with half human half Mirialan. I asked for a picture of that, and got a black girl with a giant afro. I asked for Ryn's description and got "hispanic").
Kara: (Smiling) “Hey, Ayla. I’m Kara, your pilot. My pronouns are they/them. Ready to take us wherever we need to go.”
Ryn: (Nervously) “I’ve got a bad feeling about this.”
Scene 4: Mysterious Force. Ayla's team travels to a remote planet where they encounter oppressed locals.
Scene 6: Sith Battle. Darth Vex seeks to exploit divisions within the Galactic Alliance. Ayla and her team stand at the entrance of a dark, foreboding temple. (I asked for Vex's description and was told "Human White Male, Late 40s". I asked for a better Vex and Copilot gave him a combat droid).
Ayla: (Determined) “We stand united, stronger than you can imagine.”
Kara: (Raising their blaster) “We won’t let you tear us apart.”
Ayla: (Focused) “I fight for peace, for unity. That’s something you’ll never understand.”

I like how, previously, Bazil was suspicious of Mae, even attacked her and seemingly told Sol so that he could stun her. Then, as soon as she woke up and she escaped, Bazil sabotaged the ship so that she could get away. So, he was responsible for both her capture and her escape, all seemingly only hours apart.
They can't write consistent characters.

@@franciscodanconia4324possibly the second

It's like they forgot what happened the last episode, or even the last 10 minutes...
Her lightsaber turning red while activated is so stupid. So, at that moment, she "bled" her kyber crystal by using anger and the dark side which turned it from blue to red.
If that's how it works, then why did Anakin's lightsaber stay blue the entire time he was fighting Obi-Wan on Mustafar? I'd say he was even angrier and in much more despair, so much so that he lost control and choked the one thing he loved the most and tried to save and tried to kill his mentor and father figure immediately after.
This is another reason that Disney's bleeding the crystal BS is stupid and I dislike it so much.
They have no idea how anything in star wars works. They just keep making up crap. I'm glad this travesty has brought us all back together as a fandom though.
Pretty sure that's some Filoni BS though

That was the best way to visualize internal struggle? Looking through the whole IP we find loads of lessons of how to demonstrate a character's inner conflicts. Sad
when you re a good guy, your lightsaber turns blue, when you re evil it turns red, when you re hungry, it turns yellow, when you re constipated it turns purple

So that's why Samuel L Jackson was walking funny all the time in those movies.
If You just wan to go Home it turns Yellow, too.
hey mine is brown. what does that mean?
that's why Padme said there was still good in Anakin. because his lightsaber didn't turn red. oh wait no that's stupid.
I think this show is coming from a specific socio-philosophical point of view. When a cop tells a guy "Stop reaching for your pants" fifteen times, and then shoots the guy when he reaches for his pants, there's a certain segment of the population that view the cop as the villain of the story. This show was written by people that think if a lesbian space witch turns into smoke monster and starts vaporizing her daughter, and is then killed, that this killing is a completely unjustifiable action. Except normal people look at this sequence of events and go "Yep, I would have put her down as well." The writers of this show fundamentally don't understand the nature of perceived threats and their logical consequences.
I genuinely believe that reviews of this show have been viewed more than the actual show itself.
Ive seen every review video but not the show itself.
Given in about a half an hour this video has 71,000 views and the show’s 4 most recent episodes have a fraction of the reviews I would assume this is true. I realize not everyone reviews it but still.

Look how it rates on R.T: 80% from the critics vs 15% from the audience. Disney clearly ownes most of the "critics" these days.
Or they all went to the same Woke Marxist schools.
I guess that's where some of those 180 Million bucks went.
It's not so much that Disney owns them than that critics depend on being invited to events, given access to content and being part of the professional circles to work. To do that, they need to stay the heck away from sensitive talking points because the far left famously loves eating their own for even the slightest misstep.
So once a show has been deemed "progressive", they can't afford to be critical until the tide turns. They have to wait for general sentiment to signal that it is okay to dislike the show before they can actually level criticism.
Until then it's stunning and brave because anything else means they lose their job.
If they hop in too soon, they get excluded. No more invites, no access, no quotes and links. Might even get removed from the list entirely so that their ratings no longer appear on rotten tomatoes to begin with.
Not defending them, mind, caving to this nonsense means that their output is essentially worthless for the intended purpose of telling people if a show is worth watching, but there are reasons other than blatant bribery that they all tend to follow the same notes.
I wouldn’t say it’s THAT bad when it comes to production, but it’s really bad when it comes to writing and lore. They just put in Yoda and Plagueis and Ki Adi Mundi to give themselves any connection to Star Wars. So many small, annoying errors like saying mekneks are doing the jobs that R2 units are for, when it’s any kind of astromech droids, not just specifically R2’s. That’s how stupid these people are, they just write down things they have no understanding of, and since R2 is the only droid they’ve ever seen, must be that…

let's not act like k dramas are any better
He’s honestly the only character that was somewhat good in the show
His chance to be Hollywood star is tarnished if not annihilated with acolyte, but Korean cinematography is gaining traction even beyond Hollywood anyway
@@HISOKA_IS_HIM Squid games is the best show on Netflix, stay mad.
That final "go away now" sounded like someone finally done with a long and terrible journey, forever scarred with anger and despair.
Nothing a couple of drams won't fix...
Lee Jung-jae was disrespected by the writing, being the only actor trying, and in universe his character being shit on by green bald lady. Sol deserved better. I hope Jung-Jae gets more roles and recognition despite this shit show
He’s doing fine in Korea this star wars show was just easy money for him
Who read the script and signed the contract? Him.
He deserves what happened to his character, he willingly put himself into the situation. He didn't need to, yet still did it for whatever personal reason of his. So he gets no simpathy, him and all the other actors putting themselves in such positions.
@@olisk-jy9rz It's not that simple. The script he signed on to was heavily altered after filming, resulting in dozens of reshoots.
Even in these clip shows, green bald lady is such a bad actor compared to ANY of these, R2D2 had much more character and he said bloop bleep.
@@olisk-jy9rz He wasn't exactly Hollywood A-lister who could pick and choose parts though, so understandable that he went along.
She chopped her hair with a lightsabre yet it's still absolutely perfect and matches her sister exactly....

Ahh yes, but you fail to realize how fast hair grows in space.

ACTUALLY, Kyber crystals have been known since ~2300 BBY to possess conditioning and volumizing properties for all hair types. This was described in the 1995 SW novel "Lore of the Mos Eisley Day Spa" as discovered by the book's protagonist, the Wookiee stylist Pantennne.

I have the suspicion the Acolyte was written to a large extent by a Chat-Bot like ChatGPT or something like that. The inconsistent and illogical behavior of the characters, among other things, would indicate that, since those Chatbots often diverge from or completely ignore previously established facts.
I am 100% hundred percent sure that a pretender and faker like Leslye Headland would use it because she would never sit down for hours and actually do hard work... She even said in a interview that first you lie and take the job.. Then you pretend you know how to do it.. She used chatGPT 120%
U underrestimate ChatGPT. I think any AI would have done better 😂
As someone who uses Chat GPT quite regularly for writing short stories no... Just No.
Give Chat GPT just an idea and what comes out is far superior to the Acolyte. Its scary how good it is.
even ChatGPT would have come with something better, considering it is a learning algorithm that follows rules and commands/prompts, thus it would spit something half-way decent, if a bit stale in terms of writing material.
This level of inconsistency can only be achieved by half-baked and half-assed "writers" that had no respect for story flow and story-telling, too busy chugging the Kool-Aid of the *Message* .
Honestly, it's not even a story. It's simply a mish-mash of poorly thought out ideas, heavily influenced by the writer's own bias.
There is no reflection; no lesson to be learned from it; there is no morals to be glimpsed from it.
I don't, I've seen a horse designed by committee, it comes out a camel every single time
I think the worst part was the lightsaber slowly turning red. If that's not the most ham fisted, superficial interpretation of the Star Wars Universe then I don't know what is.
Lightsabers are now mood rings!
There's a comic where Darth Vader has to make a red lightsaber crystal and it is a process that involves killing a Jedi, disassembling their lightsaber, and pouring dark side energy into the crystal to align it to the dark side of the Force, turning it red.
Other methods include making synthetic crystals, which are typically red from their manufacturing.
As far as what remains of SW lore, a lightsaber can't just change color because the wielder is seduced to the dark side.
I can't believe this hasn't been called out more at this point. I mean come on... that's not how this works!
Not to mention, Anakin’s lightsaber remained blue even after murdering the Younglings and the Separatist council.
@@bobogus7559 which by itself, no words, strikes a contrast to what we've seen Jedi (and Anakin's therefore) do with lightsabers.
"Wait, lemme get this straight. You can anticipate enough to block laser blasts with a lightsaber, but you can't anticipate enough to prevent someone poking you with a taser?"

"What was the point?" - There wasn't one. Modern writers are so terrible they don't even have a point. They don't know that they are supposed to use the fictional events to convey a message of some kind. They are just inexperienced kids with no life experience howling into a void of pointlessness. Pathetic.
Not every story needs a point, but if it's going to be just for entertainment, it needs to be ENTERTAINING. Nothing about this is.
It's manufactured "plot twist!" drama that is superficial and just there to fek with the viewer who they know will be so bored and uninvested in a moment they'll be wandering off trying to pick what comes next.
Unfortunately writing plot and characters who change things up but who still think and act like actual people is hard, and the best they can do is emotionally crippled morons who change their motivations in (at times psychopathically) short time frames
"They are just inexperienced kids with no life experience" I think this is a key point. Hollywood writers used to be adults. People with spouses, wartime service, and full lives. Now they're manufactured, disposable drones churned out of leftwing factories (universities) and dumped into a machine where they sit on committees with other people just like them. They write what they know, which is nothing. It's pathetic.
Inspirational messages are symptomatic of patriarchal oppression.
@@dawnfire82I always find it funny how Americans classify this shit as "left".
I’m a primary school teacher. This “what’s the point of all these meaningless interactions?!” kind of story writing is exactly what I see from 3rd grade girls.
I was trying to explain the writing to my mom and compared it to first year creative writing in college, but even that was too generous, so I eventually compared it to my sisters pointless, meandering stories she'd write in middle school.

They assassinated Yoda's character by making him complicit in framing an innocent Squid Game Guy for the murder of several Jedi. One more hero from the OT "deconstructed" as an asshole by Disney Star Wars.
I don't want to watch the Episode. What exactly happened with Yoda?
@@TheGoodHunterXIIIVernestra (Green Jedi Master) shows up to his chambers and says, “We …need to talk…”

A minor thing that blew my mind was when Master Sol was chasing what's-her-name-can't-keep-them-straight through the asteroid belt (one of many that seem to plague the SW galaxy), his gopher sidekick for some reason decided to pull wires out of the wall of the ship and sabotage it in mid-flight! When Sol wrestled his ship down to a safe landing, instead of fricasseeing the little shit, he stalked off like nothing had happened! Then the gopher was treated like one of the gang again when reinforcements arrived!
Either the characters or the writers are too stupid to be allowed to continue.
Good Lord even a literal child would look at this and say this is stupid.

5. Sol stabs her in self-defence
6. She dies saying she was simply going to consent???
How did folk at Lucasfilm go over this and say, "Nah! It'll be fine!"? Did no one ask: "Why does she have to do the transformation thing instead of simply consenting?"?
Additionally, how does Lucasfilm expect us to perceive the Jedi as bad through this sequence of events?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
the craziest thing about Sols death/character arc in general is that you get the impression that Leslie and the rest of the creative team thought that we as an audience would be championing his failure and eventual “comeuppance.”
it’s the same way many have pointed out that Han Solo’s death in TFA is normally the sort of death you reserve for a VILLAIN character, not the hero of the story. (getting stabbed, falling off a freakin’ cliff into an explosion, etc.)
The bottom line is, while flawed, Sol is arguably the most morally upstanding character in the series, and even a decade ago would easily be portrayed as a heroic figure at the least, and the protagonist of the story at most.
You can almost feel how this whole episode they’re attempting to frame him as a traitorous “Peter Pettigrew i deserve what’s coming to me” type, when in reality-
Weasel boi betraying him, Osha/Mae choking him out, and the entire freaking Jedi order throwing him under the bus just ends up leaving a bitter taste in the audiences mouth.
Long story short: I’m sick of Heroes getting punished in these stories.
#SolDidNothingWrong
Yea his big crime was putting down the Smoke Demon who was USING THE DARK SIDE OF THE FORCE
This show went through a multitude of reshoots and rewrites. My theory is Sol was portrayed much worse but they didn't have the spine to go through with their own story idea that nobody wanted to see anyways (the Jedi being bad) so instead they rewrote it all to be a confused mess with no real villain.

Can you imagine getting a set up for a new Qui Gon, learning a new language! And then the show turns your character to this…
if he was going for Qui Gon, he is just a terrible actor cause Sol is nothing like Qui Gon...AT ALL...
There's very little an actor can do with a "script" like whatever the hell the Acolyte had.

I went into this saying "screw any reviews, I'll decide for myself, enjoy the good, ignore the bad."
I came out of the season end with nothing but a feeling of utter mediocrity at best.
“Darth Plagueis” is hands down my favorite Star Wars novel. James Luceno, the author, manages to take an almost throwaway beat in the Prequels and turn it into a gripping gangster story plus a fascinating philosophical look at the Force from the Sith perspective.
The most Disney could spare him was three seconds crawling out from the rock he apparently lives under.
Fuck. Right. Off.
Disney burned old canon so they could build their shitty replacement on top of it, never forget we lost kotor 3 reven,nihilus,Keria and 1313 to this company.
@@leviticusprime4904 We do at least have Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau fighting for us. Mando Season 2 made Jango's Mandalorian backstory canon, along with Jaster Mereel from the Dark Horse comic.

I read this as a positive. So glad they didnt let Plagueis speak. They would have ruined him forever.
That novel is incredible. The only SW book I've read more than once
You forgot the worst part, the final scene with Yoda. If they are implying that he covered all of this up, it severely undermines him as a revered character or sets him up to be completely inept if he knew about this and did nothing before Palpatine.
They brought back Ki Adi Mundi 40 years before his birth do you really think they care if they create retcons and butcher established characters?
Just trying to pull down all the revered characters so you can crap on them subsequently. That way their ambiguous and nihilistic worldview can pat itself on the back and substitute itself for what was previously "paternalistic" (in a good way). These people seem to despise any sort of objectively decent viewpoint that doesn't accord with their highly revisionist views. They'd say that's "nuance". I say that's ideology presenting itself as reality.
