Great seeing those two women laughing about anyone caring about Ki's birthday. Because women, of course, don't care about birthdays or aging. Anyway, "we've got an important story to tell, who cares about birthdays!" Alas, they didn't have an important story to tell.
The Jedi are peacekeepers who always choose the smartest decisions Acolyte: “Impossible” Edit: y’all, chill in the comments. It’s a joke, I get the Jedi we’re doing the wrong thing in the prequels
More accurately, they kept the peace by force, corrupted over time into warriors, which took the front lines of a galactic civil war. Not saying the Acolyte is any less bad, and its portrayal of Jedi is still wrong, but the point of the prequels is the corruption of the Jedi Order and how they put principles and ideals before the actual situation, which is what led them to fail Anakin
@@EspartanicaI would agree with you but I argue the only flaw the Jedi down was following the will of a corrupt senate and the republic but not the force and it was Anakin own fault in failing being a Jedi he broke Jedi rules until bite him in the ass.
The problem I have with the Jedi we have been presented with, George Lucas included) is that they are complacent and out of touch due to “soft life.” And that is fine due 1-3. I want to see a show or story in the KOTOR era like the EU graphic novels I enjoyed
Maybe when Disney is done desecrating the Star Wars corpse they'll sell it to someone who will care enough to make a good show. I'm not counting on that happening in _my_ lifetime, but I suppose it's possible...
Anyone who ever thought that Jedi aren't the guardians of peace is a fool who doesn't know how to pay attention to what movies or TV shows show you. Are the Jedi perfect? No. Do they have flaws, such as a certain sense of superiority (taken in a general way, in reality we know that most of them are quite humble people)? Yes. Are they willing to fight with all their might, just to protect the republic (and therefore, the peace they had helped maintain for centuries)? Just consider that the Order is exterminated, due to its involvement in the clone wars. The acolyte is nothing more than the umpteenth idiocy created by KK, solely to carry forward his own ideas (again, idiotic, because sw was already largely full of female characters willing to fight, but not devoid of humanity), the lady accepts a advice: withdraw, since in 40 or more years of associating with the best directors and producers in Hollywood you haven't learned a thing about which projects need to be approved and which aren't, and above all not to poke fun at productions that seem to be going well (see The mandalorian). Yes, mine is an outburst. This is a defacement of SW, it's not the universe I grew up with - it's Mordor, in the words of Frodo Baggins. It's a sick and infectious clone of what SW was, both in the original Trilogy and in the prequel Trilogy. Has what has been achieved since 2015 been worth the candle? Hell, I'd say...in fact I'd scream "NO!".
6:04 This shows she (the massive Star Wars fan who was so excited to write Star Wars) has no idea what Ki-Adi-Mundi said in the Prequels about the Sith and did no research on his character before writing him in to her show!
Feel sorry for Dafne Keen, not only they roped her into this trainwreck, but then having that beautiful face covered, And character shipped with their psychopathic protagonist? Now all bets are off!
Pantomime Sith is doing what Joda did on Dagobah. Behave silly and simple but only later show how serious he is. But considering characters that should know something, and have shown that they knew something, are also shown not knowing that thing. Brilliant writing, Leslye!

2:06 This is something I realized while working on making commentary videos. The actress playing Jecki was in her MID teens when this was filming. it had a 4-year production timeline, and thus she's noticeably older in some shots.
Honestly, I like this delayed release of your videos. I get to relive witnessing this colossal embarrassment with the knowledge of how it all ends. Keep it up Mr Head!
Ok lemme just CLEAR THE FREAKIN AIR on Jeckie, ok? Jeckie's Actress: "She's definitely an adult and in love with OSHA." The Show: Puts her in a youngling level class. Sol: "She was a child!!" Smylo: Agrees with Sol that she is a child. So as you can see, this show is shit.
Honestly I have girl boss fatigue. I gave up on Star Wars after boba Fett. Got rid of my Disney account. If you aren’t a critic, and you still give Disney money in 2024, WTF are y’all doing? Get rid of your accounts!
But why? The first one was just nice CGI, the story was ass. I havem't wasted my time with the sequel. Cameron is like Ridley Scott; lost their touch on how to make good films.
@JoakimOtamaa everyone has there opinions and perspectives, but based on the numbers the majority rules and it was praised and made money. James Cameron has made significant contribution to film industry. He has touched hearts of children and adults for even with limited films he made wether you where around at the time or not. It is said that jamea Cameron might be loosing his touch becuase he doesn't have the three musketeers anymore to make that magic that once was.. Stan Winston, James Horner and James Cameron...
Fun fact robot, that pale alien girl with the orange eye shadows, still most famous for playing none other than"wolverine's daughter"! Probably why she excells while fighting(besides just;"female").
So glad I bailed and canceled my D+ subscription an episode before this one. If not, this video would not hit home the same. Come to the center of the Sonoran desert, Mr. Head, and there the drinks will be on me.
This show keeps on giving ❤ . I love how bad it is. I can’t believe all 3 people were going crazy trying to save this show and say that we were hating on it. Still can’t figure out the rodent scene and why he sabotaged the ship. But like the great mysteries of life I must go on never knowing the truth.
What if this is the key to the Holy Grail. Only in working backwards from the Acolyte in determining the biggest failures and idiocracies and point to who and what is behind it perhaps you'd truly find the Pandora's Box that has been opened and has swallowed Disney in the very pits it now exists

My favorite part of the acolyte is the bast almost incomprehensible range of emotions Occupational Safety and Health Administration emotes during the whole run of the show. It went so well with crayola script and severe collective brain damage of disney. I really hope they give $230M to Dune 3, it'll be even more glorious if they do.
You would thank they could recycled/up cycled the wooden plank from the sequels to be their stand in for the main characters for the aww-colyte. With a bit of wood stain.

2:06 This is something I realized while working on making commentary videos. The actress playing Jecki was in her MID teens when this was filming. it had a 4-year production timeline, and thus she's noticeably older in some shots.
Love your hilarious breakdowns! Wish we had more to trash on 😂
I’m so grateful for robot head. I haven’t had to watch Disney Star Wars in a while and can still know how it’s going.
Honestly, I like this delayed release of your videos. I get to relive witnessing this colossal embarrassment with the knowledge of how it all ends. Keep it up Mr Head!
Ok lemme just CLEAR THE FREAKIN AIR on Jeckie, ok?
Jeckie's Actress: "She's definitely an adult and in love with OSHA."
The Show: Puts her in a youngling level class.
Sol: "She was a child!!"
Smylo: Agrees with Sol that she is a child.
So as you can see, this show is shit.
One of the worst retcons ever
I can see the arguments now.... "It would have been fleshed out if they had a season two"
Honestly I have girl boss fatigue. I gave up on Star Wars after boba Fett. Got rid of my Disney account. If you aren’t a critic, and you still give Disney money in 2024, WTF are y’all doing? Get rid of your accounts!
5:37 I have suspicions that they were gonna have him be a secret bad guy in season 2 (maybe even a Sith). Thankfully, we’ll never know.
"Can you do that thing with your eyes hun?"
"Just did it."
Patiently waiting for James Cameron Avatar 3, the only person saving Disney 😭
But why? The first one was just nice CGI, the story was ass. I havem't wasted my time with the sequel. Cameron is like Ridley Scott; lost their touch on how to make good films.
@JoakimOtamaa everyone has there opinions and perspectives, but based on the numbers the majority rules and it was praised and made money. James Cameron has made significant contribution to film industry. He has touched hearts of children and adults for even with limited films he made wether you where around at the time or not. It is said that jamea Cameron might be loosing his touch becuase he doesn't have the three musketeers anymore to make that magic that once was..
Stan Winston, James Horner and James Cameron...
@@BlckJohnnyQuest I still enjoy his older movies. Most modern movies are quite shite
me there through the episode "woah they've done a cerean". watches credits "NOOOOOOOO"
Give me 230 million......
Gives Darth Headlamp 230 million.
That's one powerful Sith.
At this point the Acolyte is a dead horse. Time to move on to the next subject.
I'm enjoying Robot Head's thorough burning of the series
Every IP is these days. Like musicians with "flop eras," history will look back on the early 20xxs as Hollywoods "dead horse era".
When it's finished. Hold your space horses.
Fun fact robot, that pale alien girl with the orange eye shadows, still most famous for playing none other than"wolverine's daughter"! Probably why she excells while fighting(besides just;"female").
If she still has the mutant healing factor, she may have survived. Somehow, X23 returned.
@@haroldb1856. Good one, but you rather see his dark materials! Heard She was good.
It's reported the Acolyte's cost is $230.1 million, time to update those numbers again
So glad I bailed and canceled my D+ subscription an episode before this one. If not, this video would not hit home the same. Come to the center of the Sonoran desert, Mr. Head, and there the drinks will be on me.
Hollow story telling. It's a fanfiction and cosplay
Hate fiction. They really aren't fans.
What about the droid attack on the wookies?
This show keeps on giving ❤ . I love how bad it is. I can’t believe all 3 people were going crazy trying to save this show and say that we were hating on it. Still can’t figure out the rodent scene and why he sabotaged the ship. But like the great mysteries of life I must go on never knowing the truth.
What if this is the key to the Holy Grail. Only in working backwards from the Acolyte in determining the biggest failures and idiocracies and point to who and what is behind it perhaps you'd truly find the Pandora's Box that has been opened and has swallowed Disney in the very pits it now exists
$230 million aka >10× Squid Game S1 budget.
Ep. 3 Green Bean: 'We know her next target. Go straight there.' Ep. 4 Green Bean: 'We may know her next target, but you should return for consultations.'
there basically saying he was lying, which gives credence to how corrupt the jedi council actually was, that's the only way to justify it
“The Jedi being stupid in this show makes no sense”
Meanwhile we got Mace Windu leading a head in charge in an open arena against an army for no reason getting 180 Jedi killed
10:05 - oh good lord! I've not seen anyone point out that glaring plot hole!!!!
How do you mess that up?! Oh yeah! Have no writing talent. 😂😂
There's simply no way they didn't deliberately cast Ki Adi just to make him look like a muppet, because all pre-disney characters must be made muppets
I bet they paid these actors a bunch, and that green character is a horrible actor. That 220 million had to go somewhere. Yikes!
What’s that emptiness in my heart I feel…?
Oh ya, nothing got crushed by an AT-AT at the start😢
I saw some Acolyte toys at walmart. I really wanted one but they had the nerve to sell these cheap dolls with little to no accessories for 24 dollars.
hay COUZ - "Her"story VS History - it ain't about making rational sense - "lookin Good in the moment" vs narratives that are aboot "How to be a Hero" 🍀🇨🇦⚜️
You'd think they'd invest a couple of those millions on "lookin good"
Can’t find the wookie at his “post” but also. Jedi since ever can feel each other through the force? And none of them can find him? Lol they need the rodent
I hate the line about going straight for the lightsaber. There is nothing to suggest that it wasn’t going straight at the closest people.
My favorite part of the acolyte is the bast almost incomprehensible range of emotions Occupational Safety and Health Administration emotes during the whole run of the show. It went so well with crayola script and severe collective brain damage of disney. I really hope they give $230M to Dune 3, it'll be even more glorious if they do.
I wonder why Dafne Keen's fights in movies are better choreograhed than other actors' scenes.
6:29 *Ex-sith-stence*
The actor of Qimir (Manny Jacinto) was apparently told to just doing the same he did as Jason Mendoza in The Good Place.
The fact she put her wife in this shows you exactly how serious they took the show.
Disney...
No brains allowed.
"Idiot Jedi - Stand back and stand by!"
You would thank they could recycled/up cycled the wooden plank from the sequels to be their stand in for the main characters for the aww-colyte. With a bit of wood stain.
$220m yikes! Absolutely criminal considering Dune 2 cost $30m less when it had an A-list cast and a shit ton of (amazing) special effects.
