They missed the chance to have Mon Mothma control the moths.
😂😂😂
Winner😂😂😂😂
Many bothans died to have that message written.
Wow that was bad
Leslye: it would be cool to have Mon Mothma controlling the moths.
SWs Loremaster: She wasn't even born yet.
Kathleen Kennedy: put her in at age 29...and make her lame and gay.
Saying that the script is being written by a 13 year old is an insult to 13 year olds everywhere
A 13 year old chat bot
@@v3rlon The ELIZA chatbot was written between 1964 and 1967 and even back then, it was much better at briefly fooling you into believing you were having a good conversation.
Hi snarky Jay my name is Jeff Martin from South bend in I just subscribed to your channel p.s you are the most beautiful and stunning and gorgeous woman on RUclips I enjoyed watching your new video and I enjoy watching all of your videos alot too that you put up on your RUclips channel my friend snarky Jay please write me back snarky Jay your friend Jeff Martin from South bend in
@@troffle Are you a chat bot? Be honest.
Liberal woke 13yo kid.
So the light pulled in the moths ... not the LIGHTsabers waving around ... "WHO BOOKED THIS CRAP!?"
It's a struggle for whoever it is... or it's really easy with no effort. Not sure which is worse for the writers but, overall, whoever is saying "yes" and approving everything is the real downfall. How does this make it from a thought to a concept to actually being filmed, edited and released?
And let's also not forget that he had the ability to force push a dozen trained Jedi, but moths?!?! He's fucking helpless. 😂
You can use lightsabers as flashlights... but some things REQUIRE an actual flashlight.
We're talking game logic here.
And...I don't know but...couldn't he use the force to force pull the light off? Did she use some industrial super glue? So happy to see the ridiculous jedi yorn or whatever his name is and the disobedient padawan girl get killed.
Right, this show doesn't make any sense at all
Thanks for watching so I don't have to. Your sacrifice does not go unnoticed.
🫡
True that
My thoughts exactly 👍🏻
I really enjoy watching shows that are so bad it's good. Much better than Andor that everyone says is so good but instead makes me fall asleep multiple times while watching it.
This
SmileO Ren was the Drug Dealer from a few episodes back That can destroy lightsabers with his helmet. Gets kidnapped by butterflies. Brilliant
Except Smilo's helmet is susceptible to the Padawan Elbow with glass shatterring sound effect.
For the Diablo fans out there.... SmileO Ren got the Deckard Cain treatment.
His helmet is made out of cortosis which is a brittle metal able to disable lightsabers, it's prominent in both legends and canon. He himself can't disable lightsabers
I am killing all the Jedi, Oh wait, no... not moths... my secret weakness lol
🤣😭
Just realized, this is "The Parent Trap" but with Light Sabers.
Best scene: The trees falling in the wrong direction. Hahaha.
When you spend $180 million, that’s how they fall.
True. Didn’t catch that one. 😅
Immediately made me laugh like guys what are you dooinnggg
They fell in the convenient direction.
@@charliedulin They fell the TRANS WAY! 😂🤣😂🤣
the thing on Mays head 100% was forgotten when they decided to do the switch, no way to notice the huge marking on her forehead, lol.
Sol definitely noticed, thats why he said "where is your... Sister"
@@charliedulin So you're saying Sol knows Mae is pretending to be Osha and intentionally leaves Osha behind in the forest?
@@timnotaro3376 yep
Jedis are as clueless as stormtroppers in Acolyte. How this sith the same sith that used the force to push back 5+ jedis, but when it comes to moths, it's a problem. The plot is just infantile almost like these mofos are just improvising at this rate.
Yeah. I love how the Jedi are conveniently both brilliant and incompetent with light sabers and The Force...as the plot needs...lol. Total garbage.
Jedi have always been clueless, nothing new there...yes lets just walk into this trap. Again and again and again.
@@mumplaysminecraft3029 with their classic
“ I got a bad feeling about this “ 🤣🤣
Why is it that if a "Sith" has already killed 2 companions (in this moment), the first thing he says is "who are you?" Oh my God, WHO CARES!?. I couldn't stand the idiotic face of "Seul" the entire episode, a "trained Jedi" but who is scared or amazed by everything. WTF
06:10 Why does Darth Ezra have an "anxiety attack" for removing something from his back that doesn't hurt him?
He still thinks he is in Squid game.
Darth Ezra/Smilo Ren may think it's an explosive for example, so he wants to remove it from his back. It seems logical to me, however, that he gets "kidnapped" by the moths like that LOL, after he has managed so many Jedi in combat, yes, it's ridiculous. He should have killed several of them easily and the other creatures should have become frightened out of survival instinct.
@@belxander293 Yes, after writing I thought about the explosive, but anyway, it's like a bad table that, no matter how you move it, it always limps on one side. He knew Osha was behind it, how did a "Sith" not foresee the "attack"? Why doesn't he just take off his shirt? Again, it doesn't matter, it's stupid.
@@JayboTheHood actually when it comes to Disney he kind of is in twisted version of squid game
so you don't understand the anxiety attack that can be induced by having an "itch you can't reach"?
6:27-6:38 could be my favorite Snarky Jay moment…ever!
Peak Jay right there
Mine favorite moment is probably at 0:00 but I’m a gooner so hey
Disney: “Wait, are you telling me you’re a lady and you don’t like Leslye Headland’s The Acolyte?… say it ain’t so 😮…”
Darth zipper mouth ,I can't stop laughing🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Darth Kaneki
Kind of reminds me of Tokyo Ghoul.
Darth Gimp
@@tsogobauggi8721😂
Smile-O Ren... Darth Teeth. Darth Gimp.
Just remember, Anakin killed millions and millions of people when he blew up the Death Star.
Moths carrying Darth Snaggletooth away because someone stuck a light on his back……piss off Disney.
“After Osha reminds Mae that she was the one that started the fire…” I knew there was gonna be a Billy Joel reference in there aomewhere
It was always burning, since the world's... actually, since episode 1 on the ship. It's probably still burning.
This is why every writers' room needs at least one person who challenges everything, and why the other writers need to be open to criticism. Someone in that room should have asked,
"Why are the moths attracted to the light but not the lightsabers?"
"Why can this guy who's crazy good with the force not pull the light off his back with the force?"
"Why can this guy who's crazy good with a lightsaber not touch the light with his lightsaber to break it?"
"Why does this guy who let's nothing stop him from killing jedi let a flashlight on his back stop him from killing jedi?" (For the several moments before the moths even bother with him)
these shows would never get made at that rate.
Episode 5: Best of the worst…I guess
@@theta-rexNo, they set the bar so low, that they limbo’ed tf under it.
It was hard for it to be worse.
Lightsabers 🥷...Hopefully hot toys makes a Sith Master figure from this show 🎉
Less than 30 mins and mostly action. Basically no substance! Further proof of the lack of writing skills on this show.
They had a chance to kill him and didn't. Smh he murders 7 jedis, even without a weapon and they let him live.f the unarmed bs, he broke dudes neck with his bare hands
Thanks
Thank you!
This episode definitely didn't have the power of many behind it
it's got the money of many, though. not mine, but someone's.
Darth Zippermouth is too funny…….😂😂😂😂 thank you for that.
The way I heard it, nocturnal insects aren't actually attracted to light. They mistake it for the moon, which they use as a navigational reference. By keeping it at a fixed point in their field of vision, they can fly in a straight line. But when the light source is only a short distance away, this instead results in a spiral path towards it.
Now fix everything else 😏
Did anyone notice that Smylo Ren's helmet can't be damaged by a lightsaber but can be with the oh-so-powerful Padawan elbow with the glass-shattering sound effect?
Cortosis is brittle
Thats actually canon. Cortosis can disrupt lightsabers and tank blaster bolts but its fragile/brittle and hard to mine. Forming it into useful armor is difficult and its not until the time of the empire that a method of making it i to a sort of composite weave that can be laminated to other armor materials that actual mass production is achieved. But those production facilities are destroyed and the whole project gets dumped.
@@charliedulin Here's a cool storytelling idea. Have a scene where Qimir is forging his Cortosis helmet and testing it against lightsabers. Maybe something he learrned from his master. But that might go way beyond the 180 million budget. Thanks for the lesson, tho.😉
It was a bit of fan service for those who enjoyed Legends, but obscure for all the vast majority… so yeah, it looked pretty weird.
@@actionairestudios Yeah, at least in Mando they established what beskar was for people not familiar with the expanded universe but Acolyte just expect casual fans to know all this stuff
It was still terrible and lore breaking - One Sith killing ALL those Jedi SHOULD be alerting the Jedi council of their presence PLUS a Sith would NEVER reveal that they were a Sith to a JEDI. Also, this was a time of peace so this shouldn’t even be happening! How would Sol not sense the switch between the twins? He’d be able not only to sense the dark and light side of people but also because one of the twins apparently has a sigil on their forehead and other identifying features - this is SUPER dumb! The choreography isn’t as good as people are saying - there were MULTIPLE weaknesses in Qamir’s defence that could have been exploited on a REAL fight!
It's better than most of Star Wars choreography, and at least people die when stabbed with a light saber.
Yeah, Sol would’ve gotten to the ship and called for the Jedi Swat team along with a team to go get the dead bodies. As soon as he made it to the ship it confirmed a break in cannon since he would’ve reported it as sith and immediately
Sol also have known Osha for years, he should know her body language very well.
Osha and Mae should have way of talkings that are different honestly considering their different lives after the death of the coven.
@@fandemusique4693 yep, the are just connecting plot points and forcing them to connect at that. Nothing flows with this show at all. It’s just a bunch of ppl that don’t know or don’t care about the cannon/lore injecting ideas they think would be cool then forcing those scenes to connect.
Right, somehow everyone in the Jedi Temple including Ki Adi Mundi aren’t going to notice all the missing padawans the following day😂
Osha felt more sad about her robot toy than her friends dead
Hahaha i noticed and was bothered by the trees falling the opposite way as well lol! Also saw Asian Ezra Miller being the Sith coming a mile away.
Very weird in a 180 million budget, Osha has to fall to the ground offscreen, and that couldn't just be an on-camera stunt.
Theres also no reason why Sol or Quimir wouldn't sense that their students got swapped.
@@ArcSpidrthe reason is probably because mae and osha are much more connected than they have told us
@@Tarriq Chirrut Imwe said in Rogue One that the force moves darkly around a creature that is about to kill. There would absolutely have to be a trace of the dark side on a murderer. Both masters absolutely should have known who was who.
@@ArcSpidr is Mae about to kill Sol though? I think she wants to get the truth out of him and a confession to osha
@@Tarriq Mae was written as a character who doesnt know what she wants. She went from "avenge sister, kill jedi" to "abandon mission, confess, join sister" and then to "knock out and impersonate sister to leave her in a jungle thats super difficult for everyone to navigate" so yeah. Shes wishy washy, which leaves her 'about to kill' status as a continual possibility.
Snarky Jay is so good at slowing down and adding that sort of sultry touch to her voice on her finisher... but this time The Acolytes has her so riled up and disgusted, she couldn't slow herself down. That is how I rate the quality of that show.
Because of the 180 million budget, a couple of RUclipsrs suspect the Acolyte is a front for a money laundering operation.
That, or that expense goes to the LH "commission", so that he does not release a "series" on the secrets of Hollywood and Harvey Weinstein
the show uses half the budget of the Avengers movies
and (the budget) is close to Loki- a series I thought was actually good visually and story-wise
Loki SUCKED
Superb.
@@Green-IVwatch episodes 1-6 without being on drugs this time.
Stopped watching right after I cancelled Disney + after episode 3. Glad to learn I didn’t miss a thing
I love how close you are to your father ! I lost mine to cancer and miss him everyday !
Same here man - both my Mum & Dad. And yep - I frequently dreaming of having a day out with Mum or a beer or 2 with Dad and just talking about life!
Fxxking cancer sucks!
I'm sorry for your loss but glad you see the valuable qualities of your late Dad!
Good analogy at the beginning Jay. I have one of my own, especially since I have had both of these conditions. Acolyte episode 5 is like having a bout of gastroenteritis aka "stomach flu" vs the other horrific episodes are like passing a very large kidney stone that takes 48 HOURS to pass through your ureters and then your penis, and its so painful it makes you consider cutting off your junk to end the misery. That was the worst experience ive ever had as far as pain, and that's considering my family doctor gave me big gun opiates for pain management while the kidney stone passed
Disney is plagiarizing every plot idea that the Scooby-Doo creators released in the 70s-
180 million dollars for nothing original?
...and the "no-name" Sith is a rip-off of the main character in High Plains Drifter. His official name should be "Darth Plagiarism."
What a joy, 100 thousand subscribers!
Congratulations Snarky Jay and his Dad!
Thank you very much to everyone who liked and subscribed to the channel!
Success and prosperity for all 🙏🏻
¡Muchas gracias hermanos!
Muito obrigado conterrâneos brasileiros!
"Written by a thirteen year old who thinks they are really good at fan fiction" This. This is exactly how I feel about so many of my childhood favorite IP's now.
ach bitte keine beleidigungen gegen 13 jährige. eher 6-7 jährige oder noch jünger
The prequels featured lines like “Are you an angel?”, “I’m haunted by the kiss you shouldn’t have given me,” & “You are so….beautiful.” You were saying something about feels like it was written by a 13 year old? Defend that. Defend those lines, especially the haunted by the kiss line. Defend those.
@@matthewwhite8882 so you are saying the dude who never wrote romance sucks at writing romantic lines but it's still really damn good at storytelling and action scenes? keep sucking this show's V , you'll forget about it when the next DEI plagued star wars show comes out.
@@matthewwhite8882Two wrongs doesn't make a right.
Did Master Sol actually leave all the dead Jedi bodies on the planet? Didn’t even bother to collect their light sabers? 🤔🙄🤦🏻♂️
Yup. The had a deliberate shot of him stepping over a lightsaber as he walked away.
There has definitely been a theme in Disney Star Wars of rejecting or outright discarding light sabers.
I mean, how many times did Rea and Luke Skywalker try to throw away light sabers in the latest trilogy?
@@charliedulin In this case, foreshadowing Sol going dark side.
I was like... wtf? Your padawan just got skewered 3 times and she doesn't get a funeral pyre?
Episode 5: "A polished turd is still a turd, even in a galaxy far far away"..
Snarky jay is my favorite RUclips channel right now. She doesn’t hold back 😅 love her
I loved when Zed said: "Bring on the Darth Gimp!!"
I have been using the name "Darth Gimp" since I first saw him! He's sleeping. Well, go wake him up!
thats what it reminds me of too! lol
That sultry walk at the beginning, though. 💗 Love this woman's delivery and confidence. 😄 Great content!
I've never seen a channel grow as fast as yours! Congrats!
yes Congrats

Your thumbnail made it on red letter medias most recent review of the acolyte. Awesome
the context of the inclusion was not to flatter her. More like making fun of grifters capitalizing on Acolyte hate.
@@equos5060 yeah I know. Still cool though
@@equos5060 and they aren't? They are literally known for hating on Star Wars as their thing.
@@MedalionDS9I got like 10 minutes in to their acolyte review and they still hadn't fucking actually said anything because they were too busy dancing around the culture war and trying to make it VERY clear that they're sooooo much smarter than everyone else
I love those guys but it drives me crazy how stuck up their own ass they are.
@@Phoenix0F8 Angry Joe and Redlettermedia were famous for being very critical and it attracted a certain audience who don't like wokeness. They both had to clarify they are not with that crowd, and have to overemphasize it because people think negativity equates to be hateful in general, aka alt-right.
One of the earlier episodes had the moths attack when the light saber was used as a flashlight. So how did the whole fight go on with no moths? Then the flashlight attracts them instead of ten light sabers? OH! and it was great you mentioned how EVERYONE knew who zipperface was! Great fan theory there! ****my fan theory*** The Jedi killed the space witches! Then they blamed it on Mae! HOW IS THAT for a fan theory? just putting it out there!
no one likes my theory? a day later and I am not worth a thumbs down even? sad face!
We all got it wrong... the master behind the scene is not Bob Iger or KK. We missed the clue since episode 3: The power of One... The power of Two... The power of Minnie (Mouse). She's the one behind it all, the Master Sith herself ;)
So much wrong with this episode:
1. Why are Jedi fighting hand to hand, wouldn't you just use the force?
2. When Jeki had Mae, why monologue and just use the force, because no one uses the force to fight?
3. When the moths had Darth Sith, why didn't Darth Sith just Force Push the bugs away????
ON AND ON.....this was nuts!!! But it is the fans' fault. I guess they are right, because we are hate watching this garbage, so we can laugh at it.
I guess they forgot force users could sense one another and know who was around...
The "Master" is so powerful, yet unable to use the force to rip the light becon off his back.
The trees fell the wrong way! Now bear with me… this is a perfect metaphor for this entire show. They ignore basic physics, the pendulum of emotions, causation, lore, power levels, leave Sol out of the battle just to simply push the concept “wouldn’t be cool if”. They had the saber cut the trees at an angle that would have a cool “light ring” as they fell. If the trees fell the correct way they would’ve fallen into the shot. The way they fell would’ve meant the angle of the cut would’ve been away from the camera and the back side would have the cool light effect from the saber cut. It’s just lazy and doing stuff just to do it like a kid pulling leaves in a garden with no respect to the plants. It’s all self indulgent for the sake of self indulgence. It’s like they just said let’s make a sith like Darth Maul but turbo boost him and make him fly. Let’s make twins with the force but made even before Anakin! It’s all one upper logic lmao. Seeing a lightsaber battle is always fun but come on… Sol and the others randomly not being there at the beginning, the Jedi waiting to strike until the Sith turns around, an already dead Jedi 🤦🏻♂️
Yes!!! I saw the same as ur dad lmao. I have land and cut trees down all the time 😂😂
i completely agree-i have to constantly tell myself "the sea is always right"-
I noticed that as well. The trees fell the opposite way they should have from the angle of the saber cut.
The metal is called Cortosis, it does what it does in the episode, but it was never established properly in this show so it's just confusing.
why is it confusing? everyone is bitching that the writers don't know Star Wars... maybe the fans don't?
I remember it from the expanded universe novels. Was it ever established in the Disney canon?
@@Wheelking711 Nope, never mentionned even. They had 4 previous episodes to talk about it or maybe a Jedi to say it in one phrase.
Originally cortosis never did that, It was Disneyrteconned not to long ago. Read any of the novels or games that had/have it.
@@Wheelking711yes in the new canon Thrawn books. Anakin and thrawn end up on aplanet together where cortosis mining is being done and where some dude has developed a way to incorporate it in to the bodies of droids. The production facilities get destroyed.
Approaching the 100k mark, a significant milestone. Congratulations on this achievement. 👏
DARTH ZIPPER MOUTH.... i cant unhear it lol
Hey SnarkyJay, really good content. Thank you 🤘😼
Here some further points:
- Qimir (Smilo Ren) is way too young to have perfectly developed the ability like Darth Sidious to obscure his "sithness" in front of Sol or the other Jedi or the High Council
- The same for Mae and Sol. How doesn't Sol recognise that Mae isn't his former Padawan Osha? Through the force or her behavior or the tattoo on her forehead.
- Why doesn't Sol go after Osha to check if she's dead or alive?
- Too many lightsabers that got damaged and then worked again like cars that just needed a jump start.
Cortosis does that to lightsabers. Its conductive in a way that basically causes lightsabers to short circuit. They need a minute to reset. It can also tank blaster bolts
@@charliedulin thanks for explaining 😺👍
Is it the first time that we see cortosis in live action or animation?
@@CatPixStudio yes as far as I know there hasnt been an animated or live use of it.
@@CatPixStudio i just saw that it was in an episode of Rebels named New Dawn.
The fact that we don't care about the people and don't even remember there names is why it fails, no stakes in characters they haven't made us care about, the acting when Mae and osha were together was just awful too
I am new to your channel. Something about you getting all fired up is awsome to watch. Keep up the great content.
I was thinking it was more like that scene from "Wizard of Oz" where the flying monkeys attack Dorothy and her companions, then carry them off to the evil witch. So Sith Sleeveless was carried off by the witch's monkeys.
Sorry but Headland gets props for the cortosis in a series. And thanx Snarky J for the walk thru intro. I need that.
I think someone else came up with that idea.
@@karl-niclas_burner Usually the story group tells them about this stuff
I mean, watching Poe Dameron snore and fart and drool on his pillow for 45 minutes would be an improvement on "the power of manyyy."
I like to sum up the ENTIRE Disney rewoke of Star Wars as : The Death of Imagination. They want to destroy the innocence, the joy and genuine magic that Star Wars gave us. Standard operating procedure for parasites/vampires.
lightsabers in this show now have been used to cut hair, cut trees that fall in the wrong direction from the cut that was made & flashlights.
The look on Osha's face when she was being hugged, is how I feel watching this show.
I can’t believe we still have three episodes of this shit left.
You don't if you just stop watching. Canceling Disney plus sends a clear message, but if people continue to watch and complain about it after then all Disney sees is conflicting data between reviews and viewership. Because in the end all that matters is how many people watch it
@@Gregbaltzer well the thing is, I love Star Wars deeply and want to see good Star Wars. The only way to find out if a project is any good is to watch it. I’m going to finish this show but won’t be watching it a second time. Also if the show somehow gets a second season I will not be watching that.
@@LoDown295 I understand. I hated Obi Wan, Boba Fett, was okay, Asokha was meh, . The only thing I've enjoyed enough to rewatch was Mando season 1 & 2. The strange thing is is that the animated stuff is better then the live action stuff. I found Clone Wars, Rebels, and Bad Batch better then most of the live action
@@Gregbaltzer I'd have to agree with that. It took me a couple tries to get into Rebels but once I did I enjoyed it very much.
@@LoDown295 I liked Bad Batch but it's done with now. It was just 3 seasons
It’s telling that many RUclips’s don’t remember half these characters names
Amazing. Most people feel the same way.
I watched Critical Drinkers review before this and he referred to Discount Ezra Miller as "smile-o-ren", now Snarky Jay has referred to him as "Darth Zipper Mouth". Today was a good day🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sneaking up on 100k Snarks! ❤
Thank you for watching this for us. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten !
Amazing walk out AND a poop joke in the first 30 seconds? Easy like xD
I just saw you hit 100k! Congratulations Jay!
Happy Wednesday Jay! Love the intro walk! And I thought the light was unexpected!
I'm not sure I agree about the constipation. Don't ask for elaboration... 😮
I'm a new subscriber here. I would like to began be saying that your better looking then most Star Wars reviewers I have seen. I like the idea of the story of The Acolyte, it is an interesting tale. But the telling of this story is garbage. Your correct by saying it is the best one yet but it's not much of an improvement from the first four shows. Moths LOL really moths?!?!
The reason he headbutted the lightsaber and it turned off was because his armor is made of Cortosis. It's an alloy from legends that when hit with a saber sends a current through it and basically shorts it out. It's cool they are now making it canon.
Interesting, which book in Legends?
Darth Bane trilogy, he made the rule of two. Bane in the first book had a job in the mines and his job was to mine cortosis. @@Paulklor
I just got an Acolyte ad on this video. Fun fun.
The shame if it all is that there seem to be some quite talented actors in this: Master Sol and Darth Sleeveless in particular.
Sleeveless gets to play several different characters in a way: a conniving scoundrel, a weaselly henchman and a "Sith". Sol, perhaps even more so, as supposedly he is using phonetic English (that is, he not only isn't fluent, but is literally just saying sounds).
On the plus side, it gave us more uploads if the Snarky one, so... Wvwry rain cloud has a silver lining, eh?
Almost 100K, congratulations!
Im actually shocked that discount kylo... zipper mouth.... is not a legoheadland self insert.
Ill bet she will put herself in there somewhere, maybe zipperfaces boss.
Jay's reaction to the "moth egress"-- PRICELESS!
The bad guy and some of the deaths were good. Some of the fighting was o.k. The sisters were even worst than normal, their decisions make no sense. The body swap was cringe especially the pose after she cut her hair. The metal helmet that short circuits light savers should of been explained without having to know EU lore. He could of killed Mae at any time but waits until there are loads of jedi about. Should of just waited with chewbacca and killed Mae once she tried to surrender to him. 3/10 for the work of the stuntmen
We all know that it wasn't Mae's fire, but the Jedi that killed the witches, right? I mean, that's gonna be the thing they're covering up that we're all aware of the obvious dramatic cover-up
But mae definitely started a fire in an attempt to kill Osha. She actually said Ill kill you right before lighting the notebook
@charliedulin Oh yeah, no question. That's why Osha has been blaming her all these years. But when they run past, all the witches are dead in a group already. I'm sure the "big reveal" is that the Jedi killed them. It'll most likely be framed that the Jedi don't like anyone else using the Force. Hence the ""Its about Power. And who's allowed to wield power." lines
@@MechaStuzila Yeah but the problem is there no sign of any resistances from the witches body and also the jedi numbers was pretty small compared the witches number and plus their leader was meant to be pretty efficient in the force or trend, how the f would they be killed that easy without any sign of resistance? this story is not even worth being campfire story
@samuelademeso9041 Oh yeah, I'm sure they'll have it play out pretty badly. My guess, the Jedi will demand both the girls. Kinda made it seem like they left the witches alone, but the witches are not supposed to be training kids. Of course, the witches get angry, probably do their mind thing to Torbin again, then all hell breaks loose, but makes it look like the Jedi are striking down unarmed people. Torbin feels bad about it and was young at the time, that's why he's in seclusion in present time and drank the poison.
@@MechaStuzila ive been thinking the witches killed themselves or rather mother Aniseya convinced them to off them selves because her little cult was about to find out shes mostly a fraud grifter ala Jim Jones in Guyana with the purple coolaid. Ive actually been calling her Mother Jones to my kid. But maybe their little hideout was really the cortosis mine and the sith were hiding there too and decided to take out the witches because they were about to be exposed to the jedi. Theres obviously still stuff we dontbunderstand about that incident and what the delanis with that machinery etc.
well we know what sith kryptonite is. a moth or two, if only yoda knew that!
Awesome video! this was great! Been loving the video's!
Just wanted to mention a quote: "Bees can't explain to flies that honey tastes better than shit."
Zippermouth has Cortosis armor which can short out sabers. It's a Legends material so I can give them credit for that.
Bantha Poodoo
The helmet and a bracer are made from Cortosis. A rare metal that has crazy heating point and energy transferring levels. The metal can refract blaster shots and short out lightsabers. Wookipedia says "The material is called cortosis. It's very rare- I've heard stories about it, but never seen any. It's rumored to have unusually high energy absorption and transmission coefficients, to the point where many energy weapon blasts will be dissipated along the fibers without damaging the fibers themselves."
It makes no sense how Sith guy can’t even beat Sol himself but somehow expected Mae to be able to WITHOUT a weapon.
Mae killed 2 Jedi masters but somehow loses to a padawan.
& made me laugh when Sith guy was like “watch this u might learn something” to Mae & I was expecting him to fight Jackie without a weapon to try to prove his point, but for a while even he has trouble beating her.
The power levels of characters aren’t consistent at all.
When Yorg or whatever he’s called is taking Osha to safety & she’s just like “he’s gonna kill everyone we have to go back to help them” I thought duh that’s pretty obvious he’s trying to kill all the Jedi, what about that wasn’t clear to them when they saw him killing Jedi? He was ordered to take her to safety for her protection because she’s a civilian & she’s utterly useless in a fight, yet somehow telling him this information that was already blatantly obvious immediately changes his mind
The inconsistencies in likely capabilities of all characters and then from episode to episode and even scene to scene are just ridiculous. It's all to enable a crap plot and a sign of not just lazy writing but really poor story telling.
But it was convenient.
Another great vid SJ! You got me right from the start with the bowel humor. Great seeing you on Open Bar too!
I don’t watch this show anymore. But I watch everyone one of your reviews because it’s better than the actual show! 😂
His helmet is made of a metal that let's him turn off lightsabers and avoid Jedi mind tricks.
Do you really think the writers knew that?
This is not X-Men... that is not a Magnto helmet lol
Even if that's the case, there was little set-up for this. And if someone's gonna say, "Go check out the lore to see for yourself.", then that's just as dumb. Expecting your audience to be doing homework is extreme weak-sauce. The idea of adapting certain material or making certain plot points return to whatever it is you're bringing to TV or film, is to focus on the important plot-beats, NOT EXPANDING THE UNIMPORTANT ONES.
Movie and TV makers: PRETEND LIKE THIS IS THE FIRST TIME ANYBODY IS SEEING YOUR STORY AND PUT THE SAME AMOUNT OF EFFORT INTO IT!!!!
Probably should have explained this in a previous episode.
@@Maria_Banks Yea... They wrote it in...
Let darth zipper go after he provides poison for reasons unknown. Then Osha yells at Sol mid neck chop and he stops because morals or some shite. But a stupid flashlight bug trap is ok. Wtf
Disney Star Wars fans only care about spectacle, not continuity and lore.
This mirrors Filoni’s ideology.
But don’t point that out because they will get defensive and call you everything under the sun.
this isn't exactly a lore heavy channel my guy
@@xtrafunk either way, it doesn’t tell a story or have a proper introduction of a plot my guy. The show sucks. Your point is?
@@edwinvasquez2509 my point is you're here chest beating about lore adherence but the girl you're watching had never heard of cortosis
@@xtrafunk in that case me that you have a tiny brain try to find some excuse why the show isnt awful. Yeah ofc is nobody knows anything right. They just have nothing to say no explanation or just clap clap clap nothin but consume or unaware.
True that xtra, you would have to read the Legends series and to my knowledge didn't Disney kill canon day one when they bought it from George... so to pick things from the Legends as if it were a buffet line and then not give ANY context in the first 4 episodes is EXACTLY what Snarky is saying about poor writing. What I don't understand is, with all the GREAT material out there why are they not using more rather than less Novels. I was reading the epilogue of one of the Legends books, and the plot was 1000 times better than most of the Disney+ projects.
Oh, Snarky Jay, you’ve been bad since I’ve been away, you little Cuban missile crisis, you. Getting everyone all worked up with your opinions and s**t, so naughty 😈
LMAO thank you
Almost 100k subs. You'll get there this week with the youtube 100k sub plaque!
Congrats on 100k subs!
Cheers from Poland!
Almost at 100,000 snarkies.
Ah you’re verbal image,😘 sheff’s kiss. Definitely capturing how I feel about the whole series. Thank you again for accurately expressing my rage towards what is happening to our stories.
Darth ZipperMouth looks just like Smilo Ren for some reason.
Or, I'd offer that it looks more like a bargain bin or robot version of Chainsaw man (anime)
Those are Ill-tempered, giant cicada. A much greater match for Mr. Sith than eight Jedi.
Snarky Jay do you have a twin sister who does movie reaction videos? The reaction channel by this lady is called Hold Down A. Just got done watching her "Psycho" reaction.
Hi Snarky! Thanks for watching the series and for reviewing it. You don't have the budget but you do such and amazing and f* lovely job.
Before the massive backlash, Jar Jar was the original "Phantom Menace". Jar Jar was planned to be a Sith Lord. So, Smile-Lo-Wren AKA Discount Ezra Miller acting like an utter buffoon isn't too far off from Lucas' original vision.
The Acolyte still blows goats, tho...
@@jerrywemhoff For the record, I'm not defending this show. Calling it "sh*t" is beyond being generous.
Still, seeing Jar Jar being the "big bad" over Palpatine would have been interesting.
