What has Disney done since they bought Star Wars? - Killed off the original cast -Brought back the emperor "somehow" -Trivialized Anakin's creation -Made the jedi morally ambiguous -Showed zero respect for the IP's legacy or it's fans by constantly shitting on both
Disney just shuffles money between their studios to rip off the actors (if they get a percentage) and pay less in taxes. They do almost all of their productions entirely in house so they are basically paying themselves and can create any budget they want.
Torbin makes no sense as a character. We were told he put himself into a 10 year exile, and killed himself for what happened on that planet. Yet, he did nothing wrong, he just wanted to go home, and for that he got mind graped, and had to defend himself against enemy archers, and a mind controlled jedi wookie. What happened that was shown to us, can even remotely reconcile to the two things. Then if you want to go further... him killing himself, takes place 16 years after what happened. He was in self exile for 10 years.... so for 6 years he was fine, not just fine, he was okay enough to not only complete his training, but then train to become a Jedi Master.... in 6 years... then suddenly started feeling guilty random;y to not talk to anyone for 10 years. What is this shows writing.
Best explanation I have is that they made it the other way around. They imagined a powerful jedi floating in the air, his face is scared, his eyes closed. The powaful leedah black ninja strong woman comes and uses her mental powers to defeat this seasoned evil white jedi man. Then someone might have asked Leslie, but what did he do? Ehh, he ... Bad man bad... Guilt, PTSD from mmm... Long ago. They did not have the story but a sketch of Torbin floating in the air. And like every terrible unskilled content makers, they could not work it out. They did not do it right from the beginning, and they did not fix it later. Unskilled, untalented, unprofessional team led by Harvey's assistant. The end.
So trinity is so powerful she could kill four dozen witches at a distance with the force but couldn't handle a teenager in a bar fight... Make it make sense
I've seen some argue that they may not have been dead but unconscious, and that Sol is such a bastard he didn't bother to check them cause he was rushing to the kids. ... Which if true is okay. The problem is the show doesn't convey that, if true, so it comes off stupid af.
To say this show sucked.......... would put a shame to every porn star that has ever pursed their lips in the complete totality of the history of the adult entertainment industry that's just my opinion
90%? More like 150% of them. 🤣 DEI truly does stand for Didn't Earn It, because these people are completely incompetent all the way from writing ro lighting, camera work, direction, sfx, it's all fucking garbage that would be acceptable for a student film, not a $180 million dollar production!
I think an overinflated ego is what led to having this show made the way it is. The show runners wanted to leave their mark on this established franchise and they probably wanted to pull in all their friends to help. The main problem is that none of them have any talent or care to handle a franchise like Star Wars, and because they’re so full of themselves, they all believe that what they’re making is so great, that everyone who hates the show must be a troll or a liar.
And it was completely bound to fail. Headlands last project was so bad that even critics ripped it apart. The movie was women centered for women, sounds familiar? And critics had the same complaints SW fans have now. Boring and incompetent characters, hard to follow, no clue what it's trying to say etc. Very strange that the critics defend it now that Disney is involved
Problem is AJ is a huge Casual and extremely influenced by his Bias! he cant properly review Movies and Series. His Game reviews are mostly very good and on point but he should stop reviewing movies. i mean he gave shit like Black Widow 8/10...

The Jedi are supposed to be Monks, Their Training is to basically give up earthly desires. HOW THE ACTUAL FUCK DOES A MONK GET HOMESICK IN 7 WEEKS!? He is LITERALLY Trained to not want to go home!
Fun fact: They werent ever going to make an Obi Wan movie or show, Ewen McGregor actually asked Disney to do it and they agreed and gave him a very low budget for it. Thats how out of touch with reality Lucas Film and Disney are.
Episode 3: Terrible, but at least we held out hope for a different perspective. Episode 7: Same episode. Terrible. Confirms perspective was ludicrous. This is the worst of the series now.
Why did Sol care so much about telling Mae what actually happened in the past, when Mae already knew everything since she was right there… This show has the most inconsistent writing and continuity that it makes the X-Men movies make sense.
@@budgiecat9039 I'm not sure if this is a defense or not, but if the characters themselves contradict themselves very often, it's terrible writing. The unreliable narrator HAS to do done if there is an actual narrator or if the story is being told by a character. This is not either, it's characters talking to each other and then flip flop constantly.
@@TheSpongyMallard what I mean by unreliable narrator isn't literal like an actual narrator, but how the show is presented with gaps and perspectives purposely to throw us off, then comes back and shows us other perspectives so we go ahhh so that's the whole story. (As in this episode compared to episode 3). Except they failed horribly at doing this here.
@@budgiecat9039 I know what you meant, but I don’t think it works when characters are just talking to each other. I actually think the writers are just bad. I don’t think they’re trying to use any writing techniques at all. Like, toddlers could write a more consistent story.
Its the ole "and then x happened" school of story telling. Connections? Nah. Worldbuilding? Nope. Logical character motivations/arcs/emotions? Think again.
its been dying since force awakens. Even rogue one / mandalorion is just crappy fan fiction. clone wars show was the last piece of real star wars media. everything else is just playing with corpses
In all honesty, this episode is a 0/10. On the angry Joe scale, a 0 is a non functional product, I genuinely believe from a writing perspective that this episode was non functional. From scene to scene, characters act vastly different and are almost completely unrecognisable. There’s genuinely non sensical stuff like flammable rocks, smoke teleportation (that you are still able to be killed while doing even though you are not physically solid). And there’s a complete disregard for the lore that has come before this show. I’m someone that doesn’t even care too much about intricate lore, but at the absolute least, you have to ensure that you don’t break the main movie lore (which they have butchered). A few cool lightsaber fights doesn’t take away from the fact that this story makes no sense and is a non functional narrative.
Probably why they put it as 7. Majority are watching for their own content and the rest are a handful of devotees; if they would’ve put 7 as 4 everyone would’ve dropped the show weeks ago.
Nope. Dramatic hyperbole does not lead to a constructive rating system. The episode functions perfectly fine from beginning to end; it's just bad. 0/10 is just as useless as blind 10/10
@@tdarassp I respect your opinion, but I personally didnt find this episode perfectly functional. Theres numerous things you have to take into account beyond functionality being defined as ‘I hit play, an episode plays’. I liken this episode to a car without wheels. Does it technically work, yes it turns on, the air conditioning works, it might even move forward a little bit, but does it actually do what a car should do, no. This episode was the same. It has sound, it has onscreen characters, it has dialogue, it has visuals, but it has fundamentally broken writing (the metaphorical wheels of a plot). Not only that, but the actual episode, in the context of the series, contributes nothing. It reveals nothing that Mae doesn’t already know. It literally does not serve any function within the greater plot either. If you want to go even deeper, you can bring in budgetary factors as well. At over $20 million an episode, what is displayed in this episode is, at its core, not fit to be published.
Ironic considering they think this show is ok. They don’t want to see this being worse than the prequels… That being said their Pilinkett reviews are dishonest arguments of a series that shouldn’t only seen as a space fantasy but ok…
It is quite easy. I have never seen any of the most current Star Wars movies. I started to watch the prequels and instantly lost interest. Didn't watch anything after those. Didn't watch any of the spin-off series. So in my head, none of this crap exists.
So, despite being the worst Jedi ever to Jedi...they still manage to save a girl's life while taking out a coven of Dark Force using witches despite the High Council's unwillingness to act. I guess the message of the story is that you can have complete faith in the Jedi because even their worst will still end up doing the right thing. It's nice to know the good guys are actually still the good guys!
I think I'm mentally able to detach myself from Star Wars at this point. I no longer feel any excitement for anything related to this franchise. I don't think The Acolyte is worse than the Sequel trilogy because I still have the memories of being in the theater and walking out of The Last Jedi immensely disappointed with how the Legacy characters were being treated but I'm done because it's not going up it's just sinking further into the abyss. I wouldn't be surprised if Andor the last good current Star Wars Project left has Kathleen Kennedy's stench after seeing how well received it was.
This isn't Star Wars. It's just fan fiction that Disney paid 4 billion in 2012 to license Even the credits literally say "based on Star Wars by George Lucas" It's based on. It isn't actually it.
You already know her greasy hands are going to be all over season 2 now that she knows it's her last chance of spreading "the message" to a (potentially) wide audience
Fifteen year gap between the flashbacks and the main story. Torbin was in a coma for ten years. That means that Torbin went from padawan to master in less than five years, despite him being depicted as a teen / young afult. Not even Anakin managed that. How the fuck did this homesick sad boy manage to do that? What an absolute load of shit
Also how come he's the only one who knows how to do a Force field? Not even his master Indara can do that. Nor Sol nor Anakin nor Yoda nor Obi Wan. Or Luke Pretty useful ability don't you think? 😂
So if all masters get a seat on the council... Does that mean that for ten years they were holo projecting an image of floating Torbin into meetings just to see if he had something to add?
It’s symbolic of her change as a person. She chooses to save others lives after slaughtered a whole fucking complete ass coven that was using the power of many. Right then, right there. By mistake. After 5 rewatches I really understand and appreciate the acolyte as a show
The entire 'incident' seems irrelevant at this point. Mae seemed like she was going to be a psychopath anyway, after she nearly burned her sister alive because her one mom told her to give in to her rage.
The line is so baffling: The Jedi have the right to test the children, with your permission, of course. That line is self-contradictory on its face. If they have the right, they don't need permission, if they need permission, they don't have the right.
I mean that's pretty common in fiction in general people with power are going to be older individuals and protagonists tend to be younger individuals so any story of a hero be seduced by evil individual it's going to be an older being trying to seduce a younger being into joint them it's not really specifically associated with Star Wars
Torbin’s motivation being that he’s bored and wants to go home was quite possibly the dumbest character motivation I’ve ever seen. You could grab any random person off the street and chances are good they could write a better star wars story than this.
Disney isn't looking for a writer. Disney only wants to put certain scenes and dialogues into the movie. So Disney only hires people to get that done through meetings and brainstorming process.
First thought: have him have a romantic interest back on coruscant that he fears he will lose. Some kind of forbidden love. Bam. Better character motivation to get home. Of course Ms Weinstein could not come up with this since she does not know what love is to begin with.
So the only way to form opinions is self involvement? So you can’t know if k3lling someone is bad or not unless you do it? Watching clips of the show and seeing critics address flaws not enough for your mind to piece it together and form an opinion of your own? Poorthingyouare
"We cannot choose to when the Force calls us. Only whether or not to answer. The choice is yours."-Jedi Master Kratu talking to Aau's father about becoming a Jedi. They aren't supposed to be like this.

that bridge scene really was so stupid. not just because sol should have force grabbed the girls, but because the bridges fall out from under them and they still just stand there staring at each other, reaching out to each other when they're like 5 meters apart. and sol doesn't shout for them to run or anything. the direction and writing in this show is so terrible.
@@invincible1914 yep. They seemed to have tried to film it in a way where the girls couldn't necessarily see sol was the one holding up the platforms, but still the characters are written as incredibly stupid to keep standing on a platform that just fell, over a massive pit. And the terrible acting of them just deadpan shouting "what did you do" while they're in mortal danger just makes it even more awful. You'd think most kids would be too scared to even walk out over that pit nevermind standing there with the whole bridge being blown up.
The bridge scene would have made more sense if he started lifting them up to bring them to him, rubble hits his head and the girls land back on the bridge, in a clearly concussed state Sol tries again but as they come closer his injury makes him unable to focus enough for both of them so he has to choose.
or show that the force is his weak point? I mean I assume he is if he can't do that, couldn't mind read the evil twin, uses more martial arts than most jedis shown, no resistance to the choke- but at the same time he's got nimble force movement like wtf???
on intercom talking to his friends on Coruscant: "So you've been gone for almost 2 months. What are you doing over there?" "Touching grass" "Lmao what a total loser! 😂 You must feel so embarrassed! 😂" "Fuck. I wanna go home 😢"
Sol: I feel a connection to Osha! Also Sol: Osha is meant to be my padawan! Mae: Mommy! Fire! Help! Sol: Osha!!! ....🤨 Also Sol: *needs comic relief gopher to tell him Mae isn't Osha*
I'm not a fan of the acolyte but I'm assuming that it meant more than just being home, the fact he even has that kind of attachment shows he's faltering
Homesick for a planet a 30min ship ride away, The show made time and distance meaningless. He could have travel to temple gotten his replacement and been back before the team had dinner
Streaming services are a terrible business model but Disney and the rest of them keep chasing them because of the absolute control they get over everything they make that goes on it
Keep in mind in a previous episode they warp from coruscant to that planet in like 20 minutes... So dude is homesick when he is a 20 minutes away. It makes no sense.
Exactly! Leslie belongs behind bars as a co-conspirator and active participant in the cover up on a massive scale! The ONLY reason she's not behind bars is because she's got tits and she's gay, and the DA decided it wasn't worth the political backlash during the height of the MeToo movement. Everyone knows she's guilty!
I watch an average of 5 reviews for each Acolyte episode, haven't seen a single second of the actual show. Its so funny to hear YTers react to this pile of crap
I do not mean to defend them, but the vast majority of Hwood writers except for select few do not get a lot of jobs. I heard it from themselves. They get a few good jobs, but those do not come every month except for DEI lgbt privileged caste. 10k is a good salary. But they have to stretch it over many months.
Headland absolutely has dirt on some Disney execs, I guarantee it. How else would she get the keys to the most profitable franchise in history, while being insanely under qualified??
"just wait for the answers. You can't judge the show until you do" Well, turns out i could judge the show before the predictably bad writing was predictably even worse... Colour me surprised
If people can pretend that this series is good, then I'll be over here in my little world where George never sold off Star Wars and the last movies and shows were the Revenge of the Sith and the Clone Wars. Since we're living in fantasy land its all fair
The whole Sol obsessing, spying on the children, sneaking around the Forrest, following them home made him look like a pedophile stalker. Like OJ said, I also hought Sol kept saying virgins.
@@DavidWMiller You're right. It's worse. Kenobi destroyed a character that was even more beloved than Boba, and makes him responsible for the death of billions on Alderaan.
When Joe reviewed episode 3 I was laughing, I’m just sad that this has happened to Star Wars. All the tales I grew up with have been ruined by bad writing and woke bs. Thanks for the review.
Torbin homesick to death and Korril is the sole reason all the witches get killed. The show wasted 1/4 of time on replaying the event and then rebel moons director cutting the same footage
Imagine watching a Harry Potter spin off prequel series where the most powerful wizard at a different point tried to avada kadavra twin babies and they survived, went to hogwarts and fought the dark wizard every year. Also all the teachers are creeps and the spells all have different names but do the same things. It feels like that's the type of imagination and disrespect to the source material within the same franchise happening here where anakin is just thrown out the window.
"it's a joke!" lol reminds me of the fat mobster in Sopranos wearing BDSM leather outfit dancing saying that who was caught by two mob lackies collecting weekly protection money in a gay bar 😂
This can sound like a joke for some, but you can smell the stench of money laundering from a mile away. Disney investors should demand some kind of explanation, maybe pay for a external audition, etc ever since Disney started to engorge, buying companies left and right, seems like they are producing awful products on purpose
Money laundering, all companies do it, you can expect 30-40% of all projects budget of any company to be diverted around, the bigger the company the more hussling.
Luke was around twenty when Yoda told him he was too old as a last ditch attempt to avoid training him, which instantly failed. That somehow morphed into having to start training when you're 4 years old in the Prequel Era, and now THAT has morphed into the Jedi looking like a bunch of creepy child predators.
@@TheFatalcrestI think it stems from that old documentary 7 Up, where psychologists theorizes that children become set in their personalities by age 7. Also in terms of safe harbor laws where a person can abandon a baby to law enforcement or hospitals no questions asked as long as its before 30 days after birth 😂
... it would be cool if Lucas said RECENTLY RIGHT WHEN QUIGONJIN AS KICKED OFF THR COUNCIL the Jedi changed to recruiting children and buying off parents will billions in bribes, and thus the Jedi chose to keep power via evil. It's 100% evil to take 5 year old from parents, to be in dorms and by 10 going on combat missions. Lucas maybe had a genius twist based on this which he dropped when he got distracted by all the hate the Phantom Menace got ...... Lucas was Californian, allowing a military order to take children WOULD seem wrong to him yet he slid that in to Phantom Menace .. weird.... The clones were children too.... Double weird. I know I'm stretching logic, but Lucas maybe was gonna fight against politicizing kids to take sides in mega complex issues like climate change or income inequality, that is issue Lucas in 1990s would see was occuring.... The Republic and Jedi brainwashing children was evil and this alone would justify the Sith takking over and even lecturing saying you child abusing Republic practice evil while denying it and at least the sith don't deny it..... If the sith took over Nazi Germany we all would feel yeah that feels historically right and a just outcome .... ... I know the "bureaucracy and waste" of the Republic was supposedly bad and led to weakness but we never really saw this, no golden statutes and no rich politicians rich from theft, so the Republic falling seemed a shock...... The USA falling into dictatorship we could believe, we each pay like half our money in taxes so clearly it's being stolen or wasted, but we never saw this was also the Republics situation.... Lucas you maniac what were you going for?
The official [Audio Description Mode] setting on D+ explicitly refers to it as a "METAL DETECTOR" - Which means either the Jedi are literally looking for magic traces with actual metal detectors in-canon....OR, the show is so bad Disney is literally lying to blind people "watching" the show. Idk which is funnier 💀
@@PortfolioPLNo offense, but that's literally even dumber. The audio description is a fully scripted and voiced assistance mode. It would've had to go through multiple channels of someone being able to correct it if it weren't true. And even if it IS just a human error... that's a pretty damn big f**k up to add to the piles of f**k ups on this show! 😂
Jedi Torbin acts like a child because he's been away from home for 7 weeks. Jedi Sol acts like a stalker because he wants a padawan so bad. Jedi Inara decides to lie and hide the truth from the Jedi council. Jedi is the establishment and establishment is bad. Defund the Jedi... 😂
Because the goal was to destroy the franchise and make it in a new image. Think about it. In the original series, the Jedi are true, good, and almost entirely white male. The main villain is also a white male. We can't have that in our current day and age. The "good" has to be destroyed and shown to be worse than the evil. The men have to be all terrible and the females and minorities must be shown as the bestest ever.
I used to have a best friend like Joe and Joe, a friend that I could be myself around and that thought I was funny. I miss him so much. You guys are lucky to have each other. 😢
@@edgarjacksby1402The twist was it was all the Jedi's fault for trying to rescue a child from a weird cult and defending themselves from said cults attack and FORCING the other psychotic child into burning her home to the ground!
We knew the Jedi killed them in episode 3. After that episode I like 'Ya the Jedi did it and I can't wait to see them do it because this cult deserves what they get." I'm glad episode 7 showed us what we already knew. The Jedi are the good guys.
@@edgarjacksby1402 You ate defending the Character Flip flopping, stupid scenes like Sol caring the bridges instead of the twins with the force and Aimless storytelling
This is ALL Lucas's fault for backing Iger.... His punishment should be to have to binge watch the whole Acolyte series....strapped to a chair with his eyes taped open ...
Anyone else get mad creepy groomer vibes from how obsessed Sol is with kidnapping this child he barely knows? If it wasn't Star Wars I would have assumed it was the writer's intention, bizarre.
That's the one bit I actually don't mind because I actually agree with him. Jedi are knights for peace and justice, not the shit disney take where they're a religious cult. From his POV he is saving these kids from an abusive environment and from a REAL cult, which is why he's so desperate. In his eyes, he needs to save these kids and give them a better chance to develop their skills without the brainwashing. And no, idc for the shit take that the jedi brainwash. They do, and always have, teach right from wrong and how to seek out and destroy evil, just as they always have done.
@@Legoboy55able you are right about Jedi not brainwashing people. Jedi are Jedi but not in Disney Star Wars. What people don't like is not the fact that Sol wanted to save these children from these clearly crazy and evil witches but the way he talks and acts with respect to this issue does not bear the characteristics or a Jedi, a composed, logical, patient and resourceful person with integrity. He acts like a predator who wants to groom a child. The idiots who compared him to Qui Gon are effing regarded. He is the worst.

I think an overinflated ego is what led to having this show made the way it is. The show runners wanted to leave their mark on this established franchise and they probably wanted to pull in all their friends to help. The main problem is that none of them have any talent or care to handle a franchise like Star Wars, and because they’re so full of themselves, they all believe that what they’re making is so great, that everyone who hates the show must be a troll or a liar.
And it was completely bound to fail. Headlands last project was so bad that even critics ripped it apart. The movie was women centered for women, sounds familiar?
And critics had the same complaints SW fans have now. Boring and incompetent characters, hard to follow, no clue what it's trying to say etc.
Very strange that the critics defend it now that Disney is involved
Bingo.

This show has the most inconsistent writing and continuity that it makes the X-Men movies make sense.
Leslye is trying to explain directly to the audience with an unreliable narrator instead of the characters acting organically
@@budgiecat9039 I'm not sure if this is a defense or not, but if the characters themselves contradict themselves very often, it's terrible writing.
The unreliable narrator HAS to do done if there is an actual narrator or if the story is being told by a character. This is not either, it's characters talking to each other and then flip flop constantly.
@@TheSpongyMallard what I mean by unreliable narrator isn't literal like an actual narrator, but how the show is presented with gaps and perspectives purposely to throw us off, then comes back and shows us other perspectives so we go ahhh so that's the whole story. (As in this episode compared to episode 3).
Except they failed horribly at doing this here.
@@budgiecat9039 I know what you meant, but I don’t think it works when characters are just talking to each other.
I actually think the writers are just bad. I don’t think they’re trying to use any writing techniques at all. Like, toddlers could write a more consistent story.
Its the ole "and then x happened" school of story telling. Connections? Nah. Worldbuilding? Nope. Logical character motivations/arcs/emotions? Think again.
Surprised it took Joe this long to realize Star Wars is dying and quickly. He finally feels what the rest of us have felt for years.
its been dying since force awakens. Even rogue one / mandalorion is just crappy fan fiction. clone wars show was the last piece of real star wars media. everything else is just playing with corpses
Denial is a step toward acceptance
I feel bad for Squid game guy. He probably thought this was going to be his peak career move. Little did he know it would be his lowest point.

In all honesty, this episode is a 0/10. On the angry Joe scale, a 0 is a non functional product, I genuinely believe from a writing perspective that this episode was non functional. From scene to scene, characters act vastly different and are almost completely unrecognisable. There’s genuinely non sensical stuff like flammable rocks, smoke teleportation (that you are still able to be killed while doing even though you are not physically solid). And there’s a complete disregard for the lore that has come before this show. I’m someone that doesn’t even care too much about intricate lore, but at the absolute least, you have to ensure that you don’t break the main movie lore (which they have butchered). A few cool lightsaber fights doesn’t take away from the fact that this story makes no sense and is a non functional narrative.
Agreed. This show as a whole is just non functional.
@@lightsydedean Agree, if Star Trek gets a 0 because of non-funtional, this should get it also🤦🏻♂️
Probably why they put it as 7. Majority are watching for their own content and the rest are a handful of devotees; if they would’ve put 7 as 4 everyone would’ve dropped the show weeks ago.
Nope. Dramatic hyperbole does not lead to a constructive rating system. The episode functions perfectly fine from beginning to end; it's just bad. 0/10 is just as useless as blind 10/10
@@tdarassp I respect your opinion, but I personally didnt find this episode perfectly functional. Theres numerous things you have to take into account beyond functionality being defined as ‘I hit play, an episode plays’. I liken this episode to a car without wheels. Does it technically work, yes it turns on, the air conditioning works, it might even move forward a little bit, but does it actually do what a car should do, no. This episode was the same. It has sound, it has onscreen characters, it has dialogue, it has visuals, but it has fundamentally broken writing (the metaphorical wheels of a plot). Not only that, but the actual episode, in the context of the series, contributes nothing. It reveals nothing that Mae doesn’t already know. It literally does not serve any function within the greater plot either. If you want to go even deeper, you can bring in budgetary factors as well. At over $20 million an episode, what is displayed in this episode is, at its core, not fit to be published.

So, despite being the worst Jedi ever to Jedi...they still manage to save a girl's life while taking out a coven of Dark Force using witches despite the High Council's unwillingness to act. I guess the message of the story is that you can have complete faith in the Jedi because even their worst will still end up doing the right thing. It's nice to know the good guys are actually still the good guys!
Who are we supposed to like in this show?
Allegedly 😅😅
I think I'm mentally able to detach myself from Star Wars at this point. I no longer feel any excitement for anything related to this franchise. I don't think The Acolyte is worse than the Sequel trilogy because I still have the memories of being in the theater and walking out of The Last Jedi immensely disappointed with how the Legacy characters were being treated but I'm done because it's not going up it's just sinking further into the abyss. I wouldn't be surprised if Andor the last good current Star Wars Project left has Kathleen Kennedy's stench after seeing how well received it was.
Don't stop there, detach from Hollywood, escape the matrix!
This isn't Star Wars. It's just fan fiction that Disney paid 4 billion in 2012 to license
Even the credits literally say "based on Star Wars by George Lucas"
It's based on.
It isn't actually it.

Fifteen year gap between the flashbacks and the main story. Torbin was in a coma for ten years. That means that Torbin went from padawan to master in less than five years, despite him being depicted as a teen / young afult. Not even Anakin managed that. How the fuck did this homesick sad boy manage to do that? What an absolute load of shit
Also how come he's the only one who knows how to do a Force field? Not even his master Indara can do that. Nor Sol nor Anakin nor Yoda nor Obi Wan. Or Luke Pretty useful ability don't you think? 😂
So if all masters get a seat on the council...
Does that mean that for ten years they were holo projecting an image of floating Torbin into meetings just to see if he had something to add?
The writers really believe in the 5000 hours to mastery
lets not even talk about how he went into a coma for 10 years because he wanted to go home and felt guilty lol. wtf?

It’s symbolic of her change as a person. She chooses to save others lives after slaughtered a whole fucking complete ass coven that was using the power of many. Right then, right there. By mistake.
After 5 rewatches I really understand and appreciate the acolyte as a show
The entire 'incident' seems irrelevant at this point. Mae seemed like she was going to be a psychopath anyway, after she nearly burned her sister alive because her one mom told her to give in to her rage.
You have no idea how many times I refreshed saying "come on boys I am ready for the rant" the last few days
Same lol I saw that this episode was terrible so I was excited for this.
Likewise, I was like what is taking so long but now I feel bad because as usual it was the RUclips overloads fault not my boys.
The line is so baffling:
The Jedi have the right to test the children, with your permission, of course.
That line is self-contradictory on its face. If they have the right, they don't need permission, if they need permission, they don't have the right.
Crazy how older evil people in this show keep using their power to seduce younger people. Would of never guessed who wrote it...
Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein?
Stop noticing patterns!
"Write what you know" - Leslye Headland
I mean that's pretty common in fiction in general people with power are going to be older individuals and protagonists tend to be younger individuals so any story of a hero be seduced by evil individual it's going to be an older being trying to seduce a younger being into joint them it's not really specifically associated with Star Wars
Not Harvey, but his personal assistant :)
Torbin’s motivation being that he’s bored and wants to go home was quite possibly the dumbest character motivation I’ve ever seen. You could grab any random person off the street and chances are good they could write a better star wars story than this.
Disney isn't looking for a writer. Disney only wants to put certain scenes and dialogues into the movie. So Disney only hires people to get that done through meetings and brainstorming process.
First thought: have him have a romantic interest back on coruscant that he fears he will lose. Some kind of forbidden love.
Bam. Better character motivation to get home. Of course Ms Weinstein could not come up with this since she does not know what love is to begin with.
*Everyone facepalms!* so stupid. It makes no sense just like the whole show...
So the only way to form opinions is self involvement? So you can’t know if k3lling someone is bad or not unless you do it? Watching clips of the show and seeing critics address flaws not enough for your mind to piece it together and form an opinion of your own? Poorthingyouare
"We cannot choose to when the Force calls us. Only whether or not to answer. The choice is yours."-Jedi Master Kratu talking to Aau's father about becoming a Jedi. They aren't supposed to be like this.
After all the weird sex stuff in this show, Im more suspicious that Headland may not be so innocent when it came to Weinstein.
People actually thought she was innocent? I'm pretty sure everyone was suspicious of her day one. Especially since she was able to get away scot free. Now she's making a 180mil Disney Star wars show.
She *absolutely* knew what was happening. Not a chance in hell she didn't.
Everyone around Weinstein knew, just didnt talk about it

Sorry.
You’re also in a guys mind who hits master in no time like lebron but tell no one in your coven
It took one Witch to enter the mind of a weak padawan... yet took nearly the entire coven to possess a Wookie? Make it make sense people
Joe is usually the one who plays devil’s advocate and looks for the good in a show. I love when he’s the one who is the hardass. 😂
that bridge scene really was so stupid. not just because sol should have force grabbed the girls, but because the bridges fall out from under them and they still just stand there staring at each other, reaching out to each other when they're like 5 meters apart. and sol doesn't shout for them to run or anything. the direction and writing in this show is so terrible.
Where they really shouting “what did you do!” back and forth at each other while Sol was straining with everything he had?
@@invincible1914 yep. They seemed to have tried to film it in a way where the girls couldn't necessarily see sol was the one holding up the platforms, but still the characters are written as incredibly stupid to keep standing on a platform that just fell, over a massive pit. And the terrible acting of them just deadpan shouting "what did you do" while they're in mortal danger just makes it even more awful.
You'd think most kids would be too scared to even walk out over that pit nevermind standing there with the whole bridge being blown up.
Wait, so, why did Torbin kill himself? The Jedi literally didn’t do anything???
Unironically white guilt.
I guess because their actions indirectly led to the deaths of the convent. Though really, the witches died because of their own stupidity.
Man hadn't taken a dump for ten years, woulda drank anything you handed him.
It depends on who you ask.
He got the nasty scars and his secret gf back on Coruscant dumped him. That's why he was so homesick see. It all makes sense. 😂
The bridge scene would have made more sense if he started lifting them up to bring them to him, rubble hits his head and the girls land back on the bridge, in a clearly concussed state Sol tries again but as they come closer his injury makes him unable to focus enough for both of them so he has to choose.
They actually paid ppl to write that scene, and all of us can write it better.
It’s terrible if some random person on the internet can write it better.
or show that the force is his weak point? I mean I assume he is if he can't do that, couldn't mind read the evil twin, uses more martial arts than most jedis shown, no resistance to the choke- but at the same time he's got nimble force movement like wtf???
Congrats on finally getting it uploaded! Been watching this train wreck through you guys so they don’t get hate watch numbers 😂😂
They sent a kid who grew up on an Ecumenopolis on a camping trip and he couldn't handle the amount of touching grass.

"Touching grass"
"Lmao what a total loser! 😂 You must feel so embarrassed! 😂"
"Fuck. I wanna go home 😢"
Why did they make Torbin look so damn old? It was only 16 years later. Dude was in his 30s.

That one Jedi got influenced because...he was homesick...?
I'm not a fan of the acolyte but I'm assuming that it meant more than just being home, the fact he even has that kind of attachment shows he's faltering
To an extent he kills himself 😅
Homesick for a planet a 30min ship ride away, The show made time and distance meaningless. He could have travel to temple gotten his replacement and been back before the team had dinner

She has dirt on a lot of people. Hence the $180mil payoff she got for this show.
Exactly! Leslie belongs behind bars as a co-conspirator and active participant in the cover up on a massive scale! The ONLY reason she's not behind bars is because she's got tits and she's gay, and the DA decided it wasn't worth the political backlash during the height of the MeToo movement. Everyone knows she's guilty!

Gave up after the 2nd episode. Star Wars was always my favorite. It's gone forever.
They suffer so we don't have to. They are the real heros.
You should watch the show and have your own opinion of it. You may watch it and think it’s crap, but at least you came to that conclusion yourself.
Just a reminder that the people who wrote this were paid - AT MINIMUM - $10,500 per week. Really earned those paychecks, huh.
I do not mean to defend them, but the vast majority of Hwood writers except for select few do not get a lot of jobs.

Imagine watching a Harry Potter spin off prequel series where the most powerful wizard at a different point tried to avada kadavra twin babies and they survived, went to hogwarts and fought the dark wizard every year. Also all the teachers are creeps and the spells all have different names but do the same things.

... it would be cool if Lucas said RECENTLY RIGHT WHEN QUIGONJIN AS KICKED OFF THR COUNCIL the Jedi changed to recruiting children and buying off parents will billions in bribes, and thus the Jedi chose to keep power via evil. It's 100% evil to take 5 year old from parents, to be in dorms and by 10 going on combat missions. Lucas maybe had a genius twist based on this which he dropped when he got distracted by all the hate the Phantom Menace got ...... Lucas was Californian, allowing a military order to take children WOULD seem wrong to him yet he slid that in to Phantom Menace .. weird.... The clones were children too.... Double weird. I know I'm stretching logic, but Lucas maybe was gonna fight against politicizing kids to take sides in mega complex issues like climate change or income inequality, that is issue Lucas in 1990s would see was occuring.... The Republic and Jedi brainwashing children was evil and this alone would justify the Sith takking over and even lecturing saying you child abusing Republic practice evil while denying it and at least the sith don't deny it..... If the sith took over Nazi Germany we all would feel yeah that feels historically right and a just outcome .... ... I know the "bureaucracy and waste" of the Republic was supposedly bad and led to weakness but we never really saw this, no golden statutes and no rich politicians rich from theft, so the Republic falling seemed a shock...... The USA falling into dictatorship we could believe, we each pay like half our money in taxes so clearly it's being stolen or wasted, but we never saw this was also the Republics situation.... Lucas you maniac what were you going for?
The official [Audio Description Mode] setting on D+ explicitly refers to it as a "METAL DETECTOR" - Which means either the Jedi are literally looking for magic traces with actual metal detectors in-canon....OR, the show is so bad Disney is literally lying to blind people "watching" the show.
Idk which is funnier 💀
OR the person who0 wrote that made a mistake
@@PortfolioPLNo offense, but that's literally even dumber. The audio description is a fully scripted and voiced assistance mode. It would've had to go through multiple channels of someone being able to correct it if it weren't true.
And even if it IS just a human error... that's a pretty damn big f**k up to add to the piles of f**k ups on this show! 😂
@@ministryofwrongthink6962 Sure but how is a metal detector makes sense when they are looking for virgins?
Maybe Midichlorians are high in iron?
Sol keeps banging on about a connection he feels with Osha, but he can't tell Mae and Osha apart. Oh boy 🤦

Jedi Torbin acts like a child because he's been away from home for 7 weeks. Jedi Sol acts like a stalker because he wants a padawan so bad. Jedi Inara decides to lie and hide the truth from the Jedi council. Jedi is the establishment and establishment is bad. Defund the Jedi... 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wouldn't be surprised if that's another hidden social political message Leslye threw in there 😂
Let's call the defund the Jedi act: Order 66.
Because the goal was to destroy the franchise and make it in a new image. Think about it. In the original series, the Jedi are true, good, and almost entirely white male. The main villain is also a white male.
We can't have that in our current day and age. The "good" has to be destroyed and shown to be worse than the evil. The men have to be all terrible and the females and minorities must be shown as the bestest ever.
@@eduardopena5893problem is everyone is presented as azz characters
I used to have a best friend like Joe and Joe, a friend that I could be myself around and that thought I was funny. I miss him so much. You guys are lucky to have each other. 😢
32:27 princess Leia flying through space vacuum broke star wars for me
The difference between this and something that’s dumb-fun is Disney and Leslie actually believe in their hearts that this is good television.
I thought Rian Johnson screwed up Star Wars. Force FaceTime, Super Leah, space bombs, etc. But now we have hip-hop in Star Wars.
Lesley literally cited Rian Johnson as inspiration
The biggest twist of this episode (and the entire series) is that there is/was no twist.
What a twist!
Expectations subverted. Subversions expected.
…Was there supposed to be a twist? This wasnt some murder mystery show, the culprit was revealed to us in the first episode.
@@edgarjacksby1402The twist was it was all the Jedi's fault for trying to rescue a child from a weird cult and defending themselves from said cults attack and FORCING the other psychotic child into burning her home to the ground!
@@LizardSpork yeah the prequels already established the jedi republic was kinda dumb, so this show shouldnt get worse treatment for being consistent
We knew the Jedi killed them in episode 3. After that episode I like 'Ya the Jedi did it and I can't wait to see them do it because this cult deserves what they get." I'm glad episode 7 showed us what we already knew. The Jedi are the good guys.
@@edgarjacksby1402 You ate defending the Character Flip flopping, stupid scenes like Sol caring the bridges instead of the twins with the force and Aimless storytelling
the way this show contradicts itself should be a crime!!
Pretty sure that hasn't happened
@@izzik2781 pretty sure u're defending what cannot be defended.
This show is a total failure. A shame. Stop it, please.
@izzik2781 let's start with every single characters motivation that fluo flop every 30 seconds, shall we.....
@@izzik2781Denial isn't just a river.
@@Lobsterwithinternet 😂 I effin love that , may I steal 😆
This is ALL Lucas's fault for backing Iger....
His punishment should be to have to binge watch the whole Acolyte series....strapped to a chair with his eyes taped open ...
Anyone else get mad creepy groomer vibes from how obsessed Sol is with kidnapping this child he barely knows? If it wasn't Star Wars I would have assumed it was the writer's intention, bizarre.
Write what you know 😂
That's the one bit I actually don't mind because I actually agree with him.
Jedi are knights for peace and justice, not the shit disney take where they're a religious cult. From his POV he is saving these kids from an abusive environment and from a REAL cult, which is why he's so desperate. In his eyes, he needs to save these kids and give them a better chance to develop their skills without the brainwashing.
And no, idc for the shit take that the jedi brainwash. They do, and always have, teach right from wrong and how to seek out and destroy evil, just as they always have done.
Well.she was weinsteins PA
@@Legoboy55able you are right about Jedi not brainwashing people. Jedi are Jedi but not in Disney Star Wars.
What people don't like is not the fact that Sol wanted to save these children from these clearly crazy and evil witches but the way he talks and acts with respect to this issue does not bear the characteristics or a Jedi, a composed, logical, patient and resourceful person with integrity. He acts like a predator who wants to groom a child. The idiots who compared him to Qui Gon are effing regarded. He is the worst.
