    Acolyte 2
    As we enter the Jedi temple on Olega, Mae infiltrates quite easily, as she finds Master torbin, who hasn’t spoken to anyone in 10 years as he sits there and meditates in mid air.
    Mae tries to fight him but he has the force field shield to keep her out.
    Osha meets Jecki, and Sol speaks with Yord about the twin theory and how they could be working together. Yord is very uptight and like a super strict book worm.
    Vernestra speaks with Sol on hologram and confirms it’s Mae, Osha’s twin as another attack broke out, which was the one on sleepy master torbin.
    Mae goes to speak with a potions master who knows about her identity and her Sith master.
    He talks about peace being a lie, and Mae says yes, rapidly, that’s part of the Sith code which makes me wonder who this dude is. And why they are reciting a part of the Sith code.
    He makes her a poison for Torbin, and she leaves, when she tells him not to tell the master about this, as she’s going against his order to not use a weapon.
    As Sol heads to Olega to speak with the Jedi temple of rejects, Mae makes her way in and speaks to Torbin, telling him she knows why he took the Brash vow. The first time we heard of the brash vow, was from the Darth vader comic from 2017 where Vader fights Kirak Infila who took the brash vow vowing to remain abstinent from activities of the Jedi, refocusing themselves on the force only. For example Kirak infila took the vow and didn’t hide after order 66, which is how Vader found him.
    She tells him his past still haunts him. Makes him feel guilty for the past. He finally opens his eyes and speaks to her, saying he’s waited for her for years. He takes the poison and ends himself due to guilt. He says he thought he and the Jedi were doing the right thing. I guess he was there at the fire all those years ago.
    He drinks the poison and dies. The Jedi arrive at the scene of the crime and Osha tells them the poison vile smells of Boonta, from her hometown.
    They visit the apothecary as Osha wears a wire on the poison maker, who admits Mae killed Torbin and that their master will be pleased.
    The Jedi infiltrate him at his shop and he says all he knows, which is about getting revenge on 4 Jedi. 2 of which are dead, I guess the others are Kelnacca the wookie and Sol. Any Jedi who was stationed on Brendok 16 years ago.
    Mae and Sol fight, and he easily beats her. Yord watches from 2 meters away with binoculars to make sure nothing bad happens to Sol.
    They corner Mae when she uses force push to create some smoke and sand to escape.
    As Mae runs through the city, she steals a speeder and Osha and her see each other. Osha tries to shoot a a stun blast at her but misses, probably on purpose as she has used one before.
    Sol speaks with Vernestra, she put a small number of masters together for a council meeting, she says it was one thing his apprentice went rogue, she speaks of Osha, but it’s another an outsider is killing Jedi.
    As Mae meets with Snape, the portions master, she is informed of Kelnacca’s werabouts, on Khofar. Where we jump to the forest planet, as we see Kelnacca take out some hunters, pulling their blaster to him with the force.

    The overweight Jedi bothers me.
    I'm a heavy guy myself so this isn't fat shaming, it's me trying to think logically, specifically about the heavy Jedi guy. It doesn't make sense to me that a Jedi would be overweight. Jedi are trained from childhood in the Jedi Arts. I'd expect there to be a level of fitness and discipline for Jedi Knights. They don't all need to be buff by any means and before someone brings up the "Size matters not" argument, I'm not talking about whether a heavy person can be a warrior or not. I'm talking about the philosophy of the Jedi.
    Greed and gluttony are traits of the Dark Side. I'd absolutely expect to see overweight Sith who gorge themselves but I'd expect a Jedi to only eat as much as they need to function healthily. They'd have learned this discipline as a padawan.
    I recognise that it's a weird thing to focus on but it kinda took me out of it. Also, I hate the LED lightsabers Disney have been using in recent years. The blade look too wide and yeah, they help in casting natural light, which is good but they don't look quite right.

    The Potions guy is the Sith Master. He is engaging in a deceptive game with Mae by pretending to be her helpful supplier. Hiding in plain sight. Remember how he effortlessly defended against her and thwarted all her attacks with ease? To me he revealed his true self when he quickly realized Osha was impersonating Mae. Additionally, he was very impressed when he believed Mae had killed the Jedi Master without using the poison, momentarily dropping his act in both instances.

      I disagree on the mannerisms of the Jedi of Old. I think Sol definitely represents that of what a Jedi should be and how he handled the situation with that one youngling who saw fire that consumed all.
      But I found their reasons for wanting to put an end to The Acolyte and why they were worried that it was Osha. They were worried how it would affect them politically... maybe I forgot or missed something but the Jedi being worried about politics is just something I found so interesting.

      Remember when this show was advertised as a "Sith" Show? LOL
      The only redeeming quality is the sets and how it looks. Sol is alright but any half decent written character will 100% overshadow him if they were in scenes together.

    It's nice to see they're trying to build up the mystic element for the story (which is oddly new to SW movies/tv shows). Rather fed up with traditional storytelling, so I'm completely fine with the shattering bites and pieces of lore or details into the Acolyte story. This era looks the same as the modern one, but for once i felt free and fresh from the shadows of the original trilogy/prequel/sequel stuff. Thank God for that.

  • @leinbachjon
    @leinbachjon Месяц назад +3

    I agree with you on your point that it would’ve been a much better story if they would’ve given us an episode or two to see the characters and Jedi and get a feel for them rather than immediately jumping into the thick of things. I think that’s the problem with doing shows like this, you have so much story and plot you need to fit into a 30-40 minute episode with a relatively small episode count that you lose the ability to flesh out the little details that make a great finished product.

    • @AceEverett

      They really need to just stop picking an episode number and cutting things until it fits. Everyone is streaming nowadays. Who cares if it's 8 episodes or 9, 10, 11. They don't all need to be the exact same length either, just kinda close.

    With all the internet controversy over the show and crazy comments by Leslye Headland, I was expecting much more of an ideological nightmare than we got in the first two episodes. However, I can already see the show setting up for some major ideological statements that I'll strongly disagree with, especially if the rumors about ep. 3 are true. Ideology aside, overall, I just feel that Disney is making shows to make them. The story so far is bland and lacking any real originality or complexity. How did it get $180 million? It would be better if Disney had a tournament each year with different fan-written scripts and the fans vote for which script ends up being made into a show!

Luke were training blind onboard Millenium Falcon wearing a helmet? Doesn't Jedi's training prepare them to use force to "feel" or "see" their surroundings? Also Yord followed Osha with his "sight" earlier in the episode, but nobody used that "sight" to see Mae midst of that dust and where she went? Jedi Master would have ended that fight right then and there.
