    …brother lol this is *not* the first time we’ve seen slo-mo in Star Wars. They used it when Luke cut off the Wampa’s arm, the entire encounter with “Vader” in the Cave of Evil on Dagobah was slo-mo, the Luke and Kylo flashback in TLJ, Rey and Kylo vs the Praetorian Guards, Grogu stopping the flamethrower in Season 1 of the Mandalorian, Tech’s death in Bad Batch, OBI-WAN’S DEATH IN LITERALLY THE FIRST STAR WARS MOVIE lol the list goes on and on. This isn’t even one of those things where you can say “it’s just my opinion”; you’re just wrong about the facts and using it to be negative.

      His critiques are getting less thoughtful as time goes on. On top of all this he uses GL saying maul is the first time the Sith *ever* revealed themselves to the Jedi to discredit the acolyte, but makes no mention of the entire fucking eu going against that as well (Revan, malgus, bane, etc etc etc)
      And ontop of that says the martial arts doesn’t fit Star wars yet makes no mention of it being incorporated in the prequels.

All kinds of ideas and stories that i´m sure did not have him involved at all, yet some people always love to give the very same couple of examples of when he did as if to say: "SEE?, George was on board, he gave final word on Dark Empire and used Coruscant on the prequels".

    Does every new Star Wars project really need to be exact same as what was made 20 and 50 years ago? Like no innovation, no trying something new or original? Not even slow motion, one of the oldest, most basic film effects, that was even used in episode 4 and 5, doesn’t “feel like Star Wars”?

      This is my take on “doesn’t feel like Star Wars” It feels like they are trying very had to fit the current filming format. If you look at Star Wars as a generational spanning work it has things you expect from the way it’s presented, it has a look and a feel to it that you expect from Star Wars. Think of it this way, try and do the Matrix with out bullet time, it’s a staple to that franchise, it would feel off as its something you come to expect and it’s missing its not presented as it has been for nearly 40+ years in the case of Star Wars you’d be a bit skeptical as to how it’ll turn out too. Now think if you take that same element and put it in Star Wars then SW will feel off as it’s not something you expect from the esthetic of everything that came before it feels out of place. I don’t agree with everything he says but he has some valid points in my opinion. Then again this is my opinion. If you disagree let me know why and I’m more than happy to discuss it.

    I'm sorry, but Theory overreacts. Complaining about slow motion? There was a slow mo in The Empire Strikes Back when Luke saw Vader on Dagobah and there was a slow mo in The Rise of Skywalker when Rey jumped and destroyed Kylo's ship with a lightsaber. Theory says Acolyte doesn't feel like Star Wars when there's a JEDI MASTER fighting a mysterious dark side user. Star Wars isn't just 1-6, not anymore. There are some good things from Disney Star Wars. Andor, the first two seasons of Mandalorian, Bad Batch, Tales of the Jedi, Clone Wars season 7, bringing back Ewan and Hayden, bringing back Luke Skywalker to Mando and BOBF. I remember when Ahsoka came out and Theory said it felt like Star Wars, now he probably criticizes it too. The original plans for the Kenobi movies sounded great, sadly it didn't happen, but there are some good things about the show. They brought back Hayden and he finally got the love and respect he deserves, I think they didn't plan to bring him back for the trilogy, it was later Deborah Chow's idea to bring him back

    1:04:51 There is literally slow motion in the force vision Luke had when Vader shows up. It adds to the surreal feel of the scene! Stop dude you have a pre established hate for the Acolyte! You are masking it with fake objectivity! Having different creatives tackle George Lucas’s world, playing in that sandbox, with their own creativity spin is how George’s vision expands. You can see that with the books (both cannon and legends)! Even Jedi is another creative helping to build on George’s vision.

It has a clear focus to show what is happening rather than for "cool effects", to show her nearly stealing his lightsaber. The martial arts is fine. We had two "well known" forms of fictional martial arts that exist in both Legends and the current Canon, Teras Kasi and the Echani martial art. There are maybe 20 more martial arts spread across both Legends and Canon material. I think its super cool that we are finally getting to see this kind of fighting within a Star Wars live action series.

    I mean, the biggest issues I immediately see with this are just issues present in MOST new Star Wars media. The strikes are too wide & impractical which might look more “flashy” to the untrained eye, but the actress is not generating any force (for lack of a better word) with those wild flailing punches.
    I think this issue has just been more noticeable with modern Star Wars, when it appears that characters are just aiming at each others blades while remaining out of their weapon’s range instead of attempting to utilize any effective offensive maneuvers.

    The fight felt very Chinese fantasy Wushu, and even watching the leaked 3-4 min fight scene in the bar was weird af for a Star Wars fight scene.
    Guys, watch the night fight and the restaurant fight scene in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and then compare it to this scene and the 3-4 min leaked bar fight, also listen to the score when Michelle Yeoh fights Jen. It's absolutely crazy and ridiculous how Disney Star Wars is trying to copy CTHD.... Why Disney, why?
    Star Wars fights are not Chinese fantasy wushu stuff, more so Sabre duels which are akin to Samurai fights.

Not the best, not the worst, but CT,HD and House of Flying Daggers, Hero, etc were just much better movies. Shang Chi was another that reminds me of this.

    He’s using “Teras Kasi”. The martial art form that jedi used during hand to hand combat. I know you dopamine goblins wanna see lightsaber fights every couple of minutes but this specific scene is good. It shows that jedi can kick ass with their hands too. The jedi itself is based on asian culture as well, being mainly based around buddhism. So that’s why there’s also a martial art aspect to them as well. Not many people know about their unarmed combat form. Really only the people into the deep DEEP lore of Star Wars know this.

    And another thing to note “martial arts don’t belong in Star Wars” tarkovsky did it and you didn’t say that, clone wars series did it and you didn’t say that, phantom menace did it and you didn’t say that and ep 2 did it and you didn’t say that

    Acolyte is not Sith but someone who felt wronged by the jedi who became a dark Jedi. Acolyte means 1 : one who assists a member of the clergy in a liturgical service by performing minor duties. 2 : one who attends or assists a leader : follower. So it's just someone who's learning the dark side taking revenge. If a sith is around then in this series the Jedi never discover one.

    @Star Wars Theory I just saw the segment where you showed the clip of George talking about Ep. 1 and how there wasn't an Acolyte. Here's my thought, given the "when" the show will take place we can pretty safely say that Tenebrous is the current ranking Dark Lord of the Sith of the Bane line and Hego Demask would still be too young to have started his apprenticeship but we know that he trained Venamis on the side too. Couldn't this be one of his earlier trainees that got a little antsy and in the end either killed all (or most) of main Jedi characters but ultimately fails leading to "record or memory" of the events?

      I can go on and on my friend. Their plenty of examples of the Jedi burying information and covering things up so that the status quo (ie A thousand generations of peace and security) stays the same. I can totally see them keeping the reappearance of a Sith hidden and for what reason because it shows that they were blinded by their own hubris and which is what was their ultimate fatal sin. They believed that they were the only ones that could interpret the Will of The Force and if it was ever shown that they were wrong it would start to erode the faith in what they said. If you can make God bleed, people will cease the believe in him.

    There is consistency in George Lucas Star Wars and none of it consists with what is represented in this clip. Especially the generic kung fu fight music.

Real canon is EP 1-6. Everything else is imagination land. Enjoy it or trash it however you see fit, but it's not George Lucas Star Wars.
