@kicknowledgesmith8608 Read Marvel Comics for 40 years. I am done. Will not support anything Disney. They are a disgusting company. They have made it clear they don't want someone like me as a fan. I will give them what they want. Zero money from me.
@jakerandall4817 Disney has made it abundantly clear they don't want someone like me. I will be more than happy to accommodate them. Zero money from me in any capacity.
Take away their "racism" and "sexism" cards. Replace every single character in this show with a white man and keep all the main plot points. Show will still suck just as much to viewers. They would like to pretend it wouldnt, which is hilarious if you think about it.
@@TheMasterShotsBookswell I am not happy at all with the lameness going on and not just Star Wars but Marvel as well. As someone who has followed the comics in the 80s and 90s as well board games and video games it's convenient when someone just says "move on"
I swear the media are getting more crazy the more the fans dont care and mock the shows instead of getting angry. It is hilarious. Im guessing they prefer angry instead of apathetic fans.
Have to Agree with @bernardoayres1139. Getting people to hate watch something used to be a legitimate marketing tactic. Apathy is how things die in silence. With hate it still creates engagement, apathetic fans don't care, they just leave. Also, when you drive people way with apathy, it's extremely hard to win them back.
They only care if you keep your sub. They don't care if you watch this soyslop. They're basically just flooding Disney+ with as many different products at once to entice the otherwise unaware into getting Disney+. Regardless of the quality, they're slapping whatever they can dredge up on this service to create an illusion of plenty, so people will sub just to watch at least one good thing, like the Mandalorian. I admit, that's ultimately what got me to subscribe. At this point I just leave the sub up for my boomer mom, who has a huge nostalgia and fondness of Star Wars. I keep it there if I want to rewatch the old IPs, like the OG Star Wars trilogy. Beyond that, I only tune in and watch this rather mediocre show when my mom and wife remind me it still exists on Tuesdays. But yeah, I feel like one of those suckers who got tricked by what was seemingly an abundance of half-decent content.. What I've received is contrived, copypasted stories with the same protagonists every single time. Some chick, (or in this case, chicks) who has an amazing gift that she acquired without any training or reason behind why she has it. And Mae fits that bill perfectly, only she's villainous. She can somehow kill three highly trained Jedi without breaking a sweat or suffering any sort of injury, despite receiving only a little formal training from some random Sith she bumped into, somewhere. So, same story as Rey, and Reva. She and Osha will be used for this show, and will be subsequentially forgotten by Disney. They make these characters, don't know what to do with them, and toss them away after they've sold the product they star in. No merch or any sort of expansion of lore. It's become a joke really. They're like the John Wicks of Stars, only with no interesting backstory or any real impact on the overarching SW universe. Anyone notice that there's no Rey or Reva merch anywhere? No demands for them to be in any video games or spinoffs? Nothing. So, it just shows how little Disney cares about its own IPs. This is the respect they show for them. So, little surprise they have even less respect for their consumer base, if this is how they treat their product.

You do understand that when these companies measure ‘engagement’ they’re not measuring good engagement. If a lot of people are going around saying a show is shit, that will generate high engagement numbers.
That's a bad predictor of future profits, and I don't know how companies arrive at the conclusion of success just because people talk about it.

I don't. Calling people racist when it ain't true is a terrible slur. Coming from people that truly think black people, women and gays somehow need extra help to compete with white men it's the depths of ignorant hypocrisy. How fkn dare they suggest those people can't compete with whites on a level playing field.
They can blame us if they want. They can call us whatever names they want. We don’t have any stake in their success or failure so we have no incentive to do what they want us to.

I was in the sauna today, talking to a guy in his 40s. We was roasting something that was shit and he used the acolyte as a metaphor. This is how you know something is dead. When a guy who overheard something his kids watch while they were giggling to themselves on how it makes no sense.
The best thing about being racist, aside from being objectively correct, is that when some DEI screeches "racist" at you, it's sort of like, "yeah, and?"
The thing about having a cult where you spend all your time looking for villains is that everyone becomes a villain (eventually you). Everyone is far right, everyone is an istophobe, and the words lose all meaning. The annoying part is that it encourages/smokescreens actual racists and the people the left purport to stand for end up far worse.
One thing the entertainment producers and boot-licking shill "journalists" don't seem to want to understand is that any of you would rather spend hours talking about things you like, good logical stories, interesting characters, captivating visuals. You would be the best allies of good products. Too bad good products are becoming rarer and rarer due to "reasons".
It's not that the sith have been extinct for a millennium, Palpatine was trained by Plagueis who was trained by Tenobris etc, the point is that the Jedi THINK that the sith were extinct, so if any of the council knows about any dark side users who might have perhaps just wiped out a dozen jedi, then it no longer makes any sense why the council doesn't believe it when they learn about Darth Maul
Oh c'MON, gentlemen!!. The "compelling mystery" of The Acoshyte is obvious. How on earth can you not see it?? The "compelling mystery" is... how on EARTH did this poorly scriped, poorly acted, poorly characterised steaming pile of utter dogshit cost DEIsney at LEAST $180 MILLION DOLLARS and what in the actual fck was all that money spent on!?!?!?One thing is certain, it sure as shit wasn't spent on what we see on screen!
The people that constantly accuse all of you of racism do not have the mind to think beyond that or understand the criticism because racism is in their own hearts.
The parallels drawn from Lesyle's real life are apparent in the Acolyte. Soap, pronouns, making men useless, wife, power, island.. Am I missing anything?
I find the entire notion of calling the negative reviews for this show "review bombing" interesting. Think about what they're actually trying to say with that for a second. They are claiming that a tiny vocal minority of haters has enough of a voice to absolutely decimate the show's rating on RT. Surely if it's such a tiny minority of people who dislike this show then the positive reviews would massively outnumber any attempt by a small group of haters? So where are all the "fans" to counteract this "review bombing"? Oh right. They don't fucking exist
I wonder if Netflix will make stranger things revert back to woke for the final season. "Ok, we've got an audience again, it's time to push thr message back in their brains!"
Star Wars canon ends before Filloni man, EU is still canon, Han shot first, Clones are still nuanced characters and not brain-chipped half-wits.... Two can play the "that's not canon" game
Yup. The original comic and book of him escaping and re-escaping are decently well written and pretty fun if you want some old cheesy EU stuff that didn't make it into canon lol.
Watching Disney Star Wars is like watching the Presidential Debates. You just know something wrong is going to happen, but you just feel like you wasted a portion of you life just to confirm it.
The stupidest fucking part of this whole thing is that the EU already brought in the concept of grey Jedi who believed that using your emotions but not being controlled by them like the sith and therefore are aligned with neither are an actual thing and would be a really cool thing to explore but instead we are left with this half baked subversion masquerading as a clever twist. I’ve said it before but the fact that Disney Star Wars has acted like they’re is no lore or concepts or story lines outside of the first 6 movies was so fucking stupid especially since the blueprint of success was already established by marvel, use source material that’s already popular and execute it properly on the big screen. Sheer. Fucking. Hubris.
Makes sense. The viewership is outstanding for acolyte, since it garnered such a reputation for being so bad, even I want to watch just to see how bad it is.
Well it's interesting that when they had ol' Yord (RIP btw) take his shirt off for literally no fucking reason, the directors had him posed in the same stereotypical way that a shy chick would if she was embarrassed about people walking in on her without a shirt. It's goofy as hell because guys don't really give a shit if anyone sees their nipples and, I'mma be really honest, with the way Yord is built he shouldn't really have any issue with people seeing his upper body either. Now, am I implying that women should necessarily be embarrassed about their tits? Nope, of course not- but culturally speaking Yord's reaction would be *way* more common from a particularly shy and fluttery schoolgirl, than from a fucking stacked Jedi Knight. I've literally never known a single guy who thought twice about people seeing his nipples.
@@Phoenix0F8 Can confirm. I've seen enough men during the summer giving zero sh*ts if they look gym ready before ripping of their tops before they die of heat stroke.
Dear Mr. Lucas: I am so VERY sorry for ever thinking that someone else should take over Star Wars. Truly, I mean that. In hindsight, jar jar just wasn't all that bad.
It never ceases to amaze me how people give these corporations billions of dollars and then are surprised with the huge moral and personal disconnects pushed by these same companies. They will never stop until they are hit in the pocket book.
Here's a good quote from The Simpsons; "If you don't look at them, they lose their powers." So I'm actually doing this when it comes to an awful show like The Acolyte. If I don't watch it or give it my attention, it goes away and loses its poisonous Woke DEI agenda powers
I think the important thing to keep in mind and for them to understand, we arent on the edge of our seats because of the story's mystery, we anticipate each show to find out what they are going to fuck up about Star Wars next.
I am racist and I hate Disney Star Wars, but that doesn't mean that the reasoning for the latter is reliant on the former. It's just one of the many drops in the bucket.
No such thing as racism today. It’s all culture. This is why even Ebony people from Africa cannot stand Ebony Americans. I say Ebony because if I say the color my comment gets hidden. Yes there is no such thing as racism today. It’s all about culture. Which is behavior, how you talk, walk, values, family, how you conduct your self, so on so on so on. That’s what people don’t like not race. It’s all culture and has nothing to do with color. The more people focus on racism the more they are actually hurting Ebony Americans. The reason why is because the culture never talked about, and the color is focused on. Again, this is why Ebony people from Africa that are even darker cannot stand Ebony Americans at all. Actual racism does not exist in the west anymore.
Master Sol, donate some of his midichlorian juice to the Space Witches, to make babies. Qimir (sith), rule of two, the badboy, wants the bi sexual twins a his Acolyte(concubines).

Can someone make a Drawn Together video of Osha as Foxxy using the "lightsaber" and put discount Ezra Miller's face on Wooldoor's? That would be awesome & better Star Wars.
Has there been any leaks or something detailing their budget? I'm just so curious to see where the $180 million was used. I have no clue where it was spent other than if she paid herself $179 million. This show is so nostalgic for me. It brings back memories of my elementary school talent show where one of the parents gets angry that their kid didn't get a standing ovation and the only claps they got were from their parents.
The scene when Basil steps on the foot of one of the „twins“ is the worst scene in all of movie history. And it is not even the worst scene in the Acolyte 😂

Disney Star Wars does, yes
I raised my sons on Star Wars. They and I are done
Us black guys aren't really hyped on this. When we said so we got hit with "that's misognior"
This has become a normal for Disney: produce a gay chick flick with no real story line then blame the men when it inevitably fails.

nerdrotic deserves more views than disney
I was in the sauna today, talking to a guy in his 40s. We was roasting something that was shit and he used the acolyte as a metaphor.
This is how you know something is dead. When a guy who overheard something his kids watch while they were giggling to themselves on how it makes no sense.
The best thing about being racist, aside from being objectively correct, is that when some DEI screeches "racist" at you, it's sort of like, "yeah, and?"
The thing about having a cult where you spend all your time looking for villains is that everyone becomes a villain (eventually you). Everyone is far right, everyone is an istophobe, and the words lose all meaning. The annoying part is that it encourages/smokescreens actual racists and the people the left purport to stand for end up far worse.
One thing the entertainment producers and boot-licking shill "journalists" don't seem to want to understand is that any of you would rather spend hours talking about things you like, good logical stories, interesting characters, captivating visuals.
You would be the best allies of good products. Too bad good products are becoming rarer and rarer due to "reasons".
I was more sad when an unnamed clone trooper with zero lines gets killed than when Yord was killed.
OMG…. Yord dies??!?
Who is Yord?
@@samblack5313 i envy you, not worth explaining or watching the show
Literally the torrents to pirate the show are dead because no one is even bothering to pirate the show. That's how bad the show is.
The Acolyte. I can't believe that the shills chose THIS hill to die on.🤦🏽♂️🤡🪦
RUclips has to be keeping Screen Rant on life support.
It's not that the sith have been extinct for a millennium, Palpatine was trained by Plagueis who was trained by Tenobris etc, the point is that the Jedi THINK that the sith were extinct, so if any of the council knows about any dark side users who might have perhaps just wiped out a dozen jedi, then it no longer makes any sense why the council doesn't believe it when they learn about Darth Maul
Oh c'MON, gentlemen!!. The "compelling mystery" of The Acoshyte is obvious. How on earth can you not see it?? The "compelling mystery" is... how on EARTH did this poorly scriped, poorly acted, poorly characterised steaming pile of utter dogshit cost DEIsney at LEAST $180 MILLION DOLLARS and what in the actual fck was all that money spent on!?!?!?One thing is certain, it sure as shit wasn't spent on what we see on screen!
The people that constantly accuse all of you of racism do not have the mind to think beyond that or understand the criticism because racism is in their own hearts.
Yes. they hate Whites
I don’t understand why they think blaming fans is gonna get people to watch their garbage.
Because it worked for a decade.
Boiling point of human body fluids. 212 degrees F. Temperature of a light saber. 20,000 degrees F.
The parallels drawn from Lesyle's real life are apparent in the Acolyte. Soap, pronouns, making men useless, wife, power, island.. Am I missing anything?
It is just bad....cringy...almost like college kids were given an opportunity to do a movie of Star Wars....ugh
I find the entire notion of calling the negative reviews for this show "review bombing" interesting.
Think about what they're actually trying to say with that for a second. They are claiming that a tiny vocal minority of haters has enough of a voice to absolutely decimate the show's rating on RT. Surely if it's such a tiny minority of people who dislike this show then the positive reviews would massively outnumber any attempt by a small group of haters?
So where are all the "fans" to counteract this "review bombing"?
Oh right. They don't fucking exist
Osha or May can't become sith because the actress isn't capable of showing emotion lol
I wonder if Netflix will make stranger things revert back to woke for the final season. "Ok, we've got an audience again, it's time to push thr message back in their brains!"
Well, I do hate DISNEY Star Wars... and I've become quite racist against the new woke race.... so accurate??
"Female led star wars always receive backlash" .... I'm sorry GO CHECK ROGUE ONE! A FEMALE LED MOVIE. 84% and 87% POSITIVE REVIEWS.
I don't think I'm rac!st, I'd consider myself capable of reading statistics and grasping that information.
The problem for Disney is that there are no compelling positive arguments for liking the Acolyte.
Disney’s bringing out the old “mission accomplished” campaign for the acolyte
Lesyle Headland knows how to make self inserts, caricatures and the writing is full of contradictions and it shows.
Star Wars canon ends before Filloni man, EU is still canon, Han shot first, Clones are still nuanced characters and not brain-chipped half-wits....
Two can play the "that's not canon" game
and bobba fett is still being slowly digested in the stomach of the sarlac
Yup.
The original comic and book of him escaping and re-escaping are decently well written and pretty fun if you want some old cheesy EU stuff that didn't make it into canon lol.
The Bounty Hunter Wars books are actually enjoyable. Unlike BOBF.
I'm into fanon.
George Lucas Star Wars films are indisputable Canon. Literally everything else pre and post Disney is a suggestion.
They claim ... "The Acolyte is one of their strongest Star Wars stories!" Complete opposite of this statement is the truth.
Watching Disney Star Wars is like watching the Presidential Debates. You just know something wrong is going to happen, but you just feel like you wasted a portion of you life just to confirm it.
They can always say you hate Boba Fett because the actor is indigenous.
Is that what they call new zealanders?
He's also disabled. Alopecia is a thing, you know. Just ask Jada. 😂
The gift that keeps on giving, keeps on giving!
The Anals of Gary: A Prison Story
🤣
"Gary! My anal fissures are bleeding!"
"A compelling mystery!" "What's the mystery?" "*Stuff they've already revealed or no one cares about.*" "That is neither a mystery nor compelling."
The stupidest fucking part of this whole thing is that the EU already brought in the concept of grey Jedi who believed that using your emotions but not being controlled by them like the sith and therefore are aligned with neither are an actual thing and would be a really cool thing to explore but instead we are left with this half baked subversion masquerading as a clever twist. I’ve said it before but the fact that Disney Star Wars has acted like they’re is no lore or concepts or story lines outside of the first 6 movies was so fucking stupid especially since the blueprint of success was already established by marvel, use source material that’s already popular and execute it properly on the big screen. Sheer. Fucking. Hubris.
They should have called it The Hubris 😂
Haha The bluscreen of death
"Might f**k around and pronounce the p in raspberry"
😂😂😂 nice 👌
It's not SW, they've co-opted the name
Makes sense. The viewership is outstanding for acolyte, since it garnered such a reputation for being so bad, even I want to watch just to see how bad it is.
Men are not “topless”
that is a woman’s word, because men don’t REQUIRE wearing a top in our society
Well it's interesting that when they had ol' Yord (RIP btw) take his shirt off for literally no fucking reason, the directors had him posed in the same stereotypical way that a shy chick would if she was embarrassed about people walking in on her without a shirt. It's goofy as hell because guys don't really give a shit if anyone sees their nipples and, I'mma be really honest, with the way Yord is built he shouldn't really have any issue with people seeing his upper body either. Now, am I implying that women should necessarily be embarrassed about their tits? Nope, of course not- but culturally speaking Yord's reaction would be *way* more common from a particularly shy and fluttery schoolgirl, than from a fucking stacked Jedi Knight.
I've literally never known a single guy who thought twice about people seeing his nipples.
It is a basic description , not a "woman's word" lol
@@Phoenix0F8 Can confirm.
I've seen enough men during the summer giving zero sh*ts if they look gym ready before ripping of their tops before they die of heat stroke.
What…. If you dont have a top on, you are topless. The default setting for a man in a social setting is not naked, it is clothed.
Dear Mr. Lucas:
I am so VERY sorry for ever thinking that someone else should take over Star Wars. Truly, I mean that. In hindsight, jar jar just wasn't all that bad.
I hate disney
It never ceases to amaze me how people give these corporations billions of dollars and then are surprised with the huge moral and personal disconnects pushed by these same companies. They will never stop until they are hit in the pocket book.
Here's a good quote from The Simpsons; "If you don't look at them, they lose their powers." So I'm actually doing this when it comes to an awful show like The Acolyte. If I don't watch it or give it my attention, it goes away and loses its poisonous Woke DEI agenda powers
It’s not going away because you ignore it. You must ridicule it at every single opportunity.
"Female lead Star Wars projects always receive backlash." Have they already forgotten Rogue One?
according to the media joe biden is sharp as ever and disney star wars is brilliant 🤣
I think the important thing to keep in mind and for them to understand, we arent on the edge of our seats because of the story's mystery, we anticipate each show to find out what they are going to fuck up about Star Wars next.
I am racist and I hate Disney Star Wars, but that doesn't mean that the reasoning for the latter is reliant on the former. It's just one of the many drops in the bucket.
Disney making bad media doesn't allow you be immoral so openly. You should still live in shame for being racist.
No such thing as racism today. It’s all culture. This is why even Ebony people from Africa cannot stand Ebony Americans. I say Ebony because if I say the color my comment gets hidden. Yes there is no such thing as racism today. It’s all about culture. Which is behavior, how you talk, walk, values, family, how you conduct your self, so on so on so on. That’s what people don’t like not race.
It’s all culture and has nothing to do with color. The more people focus on racism the more they are actually hurting Ebony Americans. The reason why is because the culture never talked about, and the color is focused on. Again, this is why Ebony people from Africa that are even darker cannot stand Ebony Americans at all. Actual racism does not exist in the west anymore.
😂 That's great, just phukk it at this point, "Yeah, yep, race-a-zicst here, show sucks regardless!"
Why u racist
I always enjoy Mauler's commentary, i reckon he'd be a cool guy to hang out with
Master Sol, donate some of his midichlorian juice
to the Space Witches, to make babies.
Qimir (sith), rule of two, the badboy, wants the bi sexual twins a his Acolyte(concubines).
tbh i checked out of disney shows when LOKI was repeated sexually assaulted in the time prison episode, where somehow they thought it was ok to repeated knee a man in the genitals. Are we teaching people that is ok?
Would be a bad idea to try.
Can someone make a Drawn Together video of Osha as Foxxy using the "lightsaber" and put discount Ezra Miller's face on Wooldoor's? That would be awesome & better Star Wars.
Yord is Captain Hero material for sure.
@@kylekatarn5964 I have to disagree. Captain Hero had more character, even though he was nothing more than a parody. 😂
@@flowsilver-valhallagc
Fair enough 😉
Its half right, I HATE DISNEY, which also means I Hate Disney Star Wars
Like the Roman Empire we're in the late stages of implosive downfall, It was fun though

Btw, the analytic group is owned by Screen Rant.
They have anal-ists now?
Gary getting the dial-up tones is hilarious..
these shows are not adult entertainment. disney's trying to turn your kids gay
It's too late if there's phone screens involved in raising your kids they are already gay.
The more they yell; the less they sell.
Has there been any leaks or something detailing their budget? I'm just so curious to see where the $180 million was used. I have no clue where it was spent other than if she paid herself $179 million. This show is so nostalgic for me. It brings back memories of my elementary school talent show where one of the parents gets angry that their kid didn't get a standing ovation and the only claps they got were from their parents.
The scene when Basil steps on the foot of one of the „twins“ is the worst scene in all of movie history. And it is not even the worst scene in the Acolyte 😂
I love that a main character in the show is refered to by another show he appeared in.
Yes. I do hate Disney Star Wars. NOT for the reasons they have projected on me.
Julian Clary would like his innuendo's back from the holding the light sabre in your hand scene
