Considering that this was already greenlit when Southpark dropped the whole "Put a chick in it, make her lame and gay" I can see why Disney got so pissed. South Park was ahead of the curve and it make people more aware before Disney could milk more from the dead cow.
Matt and Trey have to know some people who work at lucas film or at the very least heard things through the grape vine. They have to know about some of the no doubt stupid requirements put in place when it comes to story telling.
That's because black fathers have been removed by design. In entertainment and in real-life. Fathers period regardless of ethnicity, but definitely black fathers. These people show unbridled hatred towards men, fathers, and heterosexuality yet have the mitigated gall to preach "tolerance."

@@tibedog5629they made a profit based on the movies’ earnings. I think they paid four billion and they may have grossed a bit over that. Solo is the only one that lost money. Now the TV series is a different story.
It's just like the South Park episode. That's why K.K. was so hell bent on trying to get it pulled, because she knows. To be fair, I don't think K.K. is in charge of anything. I think she takes orders from a more nefarious force.
But the Witches are intended to be the Bad 'Guys' right? Forcing their underage daughters to undergo a life changing 'operation' that will 'convert' them permanently into 'Witches'? And the Jedi are the 'Good Guys', who also want to indoctrinate them, but evidently at lest ultimately give them the choice? As shown by the fact that Osha starts as a 'successful independent woman, working as a mechanic and following her own path?

Well, the writers and producers are not actually smart, self aware, intelligent or talented enough to realize that South Park was mocking them not assisting them.
The most damaging thing is the way the "Mannnnyyy" sounds like, they could have hired some choirs to do actual chants but it just comes off as "womanhood retreat" quality
They should have at least converted it into Galactic Basic or some language fitting into the story and history. It was spoken like an effeminate, nagging hipster. Utterly off putting and lazy
Lol I actually don't think that was an accident. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the actual goal. Since we are dealing with writers who don't see these "eat, pray, queef," empowerment retreats as giant balls of cringe like normal people do.
The witches are so powerful they can easily kill a Jedi using the thing they said wasn't a weapon. Then they all died, at once, by a fire, caused by a single girl, in a giant fortress made of stone, with people inside the fortress who can project barriers and control gravity.
And a fortress that doesn't have a fire suppression system or just a couple fire extinguishers. 'Cause fortifications are well-known for not ever needing any kind of fire-fighting capabilities.

Fun fact. After 3rd part of this BS, the number of ratings per episode on IMDB fell 3 times. People so uninterested that they stopped even giving ratings
This episode made me just compleatly lose interest in the show because it was so non sensical. Yesterday I finally was bored enough to watch the rest of it. The rest of the episoded did not clear any of the nonsense of this episode but just added more to it. The only good thing I can say about this show is that the like first episode was good because there was still some actual interesting mystery, as the show has "Mystery" tag on it in Disney+, and the fight coreography was good.
Palp: "He became so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life" Anakin: "Sorry Chancelor, that one isn't very impressive" Palp: "Wait what?" Anakin: "Yeah I read it in the archives, some lesbian space witches managed to do that a few hundred years ago by pulling force threads" Palp: "And what... happened to them" Anakin: "They all died in a fire" Palp: "I guess the moral of the story remains"
correction. it wasnt Palpatine who had the ability to influence and to a degree controll Midichlorians to create life. it was his master Darth Tenebrous that did. in fact that is the main regret Palpatine ever had, that he killed his master before ever knowing how to achieve that knowledge
"the universe doesn't like women like us" Escapist media is just not allowed to exist nowadays. This line was the writer literally poking her head out the curtains and going: "By the way, this story is my therapy session" EDIT: "Bro, it's just about them being witches". Suddenly, the "media literacy" crowd has no idea what double meanings and subtext are.
I mean it could still make sense. Maybe we'll get a massive reveal that all those Witches weren't lesbians at all, but trans. Turning that whole making Babies on their own thing into a different version of impossible

Episode 4 is a bit soon to be writing off caring about the characters. The criticism for this series is eerily similar to the 'rings of power'/ Mandolorian criticisms- mostly misogynistic. JW4 was indeed dumb shit, but I still enjoyed seeing the villain getting outplayed in the end. JW's exaggerated journey to the final duel was self parody (fun)- especially the repeated staircase battle at the end.
They especially owe it to his actor, Ahmed Best. The sheer hatred he got from fans, simply for playing a role, was despicable, and would make any "Fan backlash" the 'Acolyte' stooges got look like mild smack- talk in comparison. He was deluged with hate- mail in which he was called pretty much every anti- black racist slur known to man, and which repeatedly contained death threats. One night at its worst point, Best earnestly considered self- deleting, but thankfully was able to pull himself back from that abyss. That, I'd say, is what REAL "Toxic fandom" looks like. So, yeah, I'd say everyone owes him an apology, especially now that 'The Acolyte' has shown us that the Star Wars universe can contain things much more annoying than Jarjar.
@@Adamguy2003 amen brother. The Prequels got undeserved hate cause the actors didn’t do what Harrison Ford did and told Lucas “no” on a lot of dialogue choices (Harrison when interviewed had even said he threatened to hold Lucas at gunpoint and make him read his own script during the original trilogy). And now? Nobody is telling Disney “no” except the fans and we just keep getting more and more shit. Episode 7 was the worst of it all…
Unironically, that sounds like a great meta joke (that doesn't ruin anything by being too self-referential) if Star Wars is bought by a different company that values it and retcons all of Disneys stuff.
If he sold it to the Sith, we'd have a Quentin Tarantino Star Wars movie or something, hell Tarantino could even bring back Mace Windu. Nah Lucas sold the franchise to Jar Jar Binks.

You can “customize” your children’s experience by showing them the Lucas-era films only and spare them the dissappointment that we old timers went trough when Disney started putting up their crap, LOL. It’s 6 films (plus the animated series, I’d say. “Clone Wars” IIRC), the rest is the most expensive fan fiction to ever be produced; aside from Rings of Power.
Yeah it actually would have been better written if it was just a normal group of men and women witches and wizards who ran away instead of this LGBTQ+IALMNOP DEI bull crap that is ruining Star Wars! God it’s just sickening!
@@awesomemanspiff Hear me out, I've got an idea: Keep everything the same, except them using the force, or "thread", to pull it off. Make it a genetics experiment, to see if they could hybridize the two species artificially, and them being force sensitive is just a coincidence. It retains everything unique about Anakin, and they can keep all their bs.
The jedi only see the force as a weapon. - D+ 50 years ago, one of Obi Wan's first lines: "Its an energy field CREATED by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together." Even their bad ideas aren't even original
Hell, even the comics officially sanctioned by Disney themselves reference the force as an energy that all living things possess. The only reason the thread nonsense would make sense is if they took the idea kind of hinted at in Ashoka to the absolute extreme where literally all planes of reality were connected "by a thread" The idea of the thread wouldn't even be that bad because in star wars theres an absurd amounts of interpretations of the force, but thats as far as they went. Interpretations. This is a fundamental reimagining of the force while also pretty shamelessly hanging onto the original concept of the force. The Acolyte is just another symptom of writers that don't answer to anyone, and disney not giving any scrutiny to the star wars franchise. Despite it being the biggest money hemorrhage in their check book.
"There are alternatives to fighting." These people want to reduce the Jedi the same way they've demonized and reduced our Founding Fathers and the explorers that traveled the world. They are doing the exact same thing. They're painting the Jedi as White colonizers lmfao....

“Times were different then, there were entire stories made of quality. But the age of decent world building and writing were over….a new age had begun….the age of the schmutz. It didn’t matter what you wrote, or how bad it was….what mattered was how you made a message. You could tell a lot about a writer from their schmutz, were they cringy?, were they schmutzy?, were they insecure about the shape of their head? Either way schmutzing was dumb and the fanbase wasn’t having it”
It's not hard to see that the backstory presented in the episode was unreliable. It was Osha's point of view of events. There's clearly things Osha either didn't see or had her memories suppressed/manipulated. One of the Jedi took an ascetic vow and committed suicide from guilt. Sol somehow knew Mae started the fire when he supposedly rushed to the temple in reaction to the fire. We'll likely see what actually happened as the story progresses.
Friendly reminder that Leslye Headland worked for Ol' Harv Weinstin for 4 years and during that time DEFINITLY SAW AND/OR DID NOTHING suspusicious and is totally not an evil harpy of a woman.
One of 2 things is true; either she was ignorant of Weinsteins' shenanigans (and is therefore inobservant and incompetent to an _hilarious_ degree) OR - she helped feed him victims. Either way, she should be in charge of precisely nothing.
too bad Disney is more of a marketing company now. they dont need to make good original content anymore because of the perpetual wealth the company will always have do to licensing past content.

The two girls little hand holding ritual on the woods. The thread explanation/training session. The “ascencion” ritual. Those three scenes were so ao cringe I LEGIT told my girlfriend I could not go any further, my constitution failed me. We agreed to turn off the tv and take a nap.
I saw a comment that said the acolyte cost 180 MILLION dollars and thought, theres no way some company could blow that much money on 8 episodes of an angry lesbian feminist fan fiction. Then i realized it was Disney. It all made sense.
On the bright side when the typical folk try to defend this show and shows like it you can just ask "wouldn't 180 million dollars be better spent helping poor, marginalized communities rather than on this condescending trash?"
You mean "the thread"? Anakin was fathered by "the force", these were fathered by "the thread". By inference.. I assume the force isn't female, it's white.

The “Battlestar Galactica” remake seasons 1 and 2 was the pinnacle of the SciFi channel. I was living in the US when it came out and it was amazing, edgy post-9/11 sci-fi apocalyptic drama with characters and a plot. The effects were nothing special but that didn’t matter. It jumped the shark towards the end of season 3 but wow what a show!!
They definitely went "It's Forcin' Time" and then forced the Force to do what they wanted while saying that you can't control the Force but then immediately contradicting themselves by saying it's a string they just pluck to change 'everything'. Don't worry, if it doesn't make sense, it's because you're a man trying to mansplain it to yourself, when it's clearly for women and lgbt people, by women and lgbt people. Star Wars isn't for you, so don't watch it if you don't like it. But be warned if you don't watch it, then the series' failure is your fault. Basically, men can't win, which funnily enough was also the working theme in every session of this show's writers room brainstorming session with Kathleen Kennedy (this is what Leslye filmed on hidden cameras to get us the chanting scene).
The show will end with the twins teaming up to defeat the sith, while chanting "the power of one, the power of two, the power of many". And it's going to suck.
One will say "the power of one", the other will say "the power of two" & then some rando who we all thought was dead will turn up out of nowhere & chant "the power of many"
@@FreeTheDonbas Fool's bet. I'd say it's 100% going to happen but for two reasons; A) I'm not convinced these morons aren't scouring comments here and B) at least that has some kind of reasoning. These geniuses might just go "one of the twin dies, the other just wins with the power of VIBES and by wanting REALLY hard, then resurrects the dead twin and they go off to make more of themselves, hidden away until they are needed, they are also immortal now".
Wouldn't be surprised. They did it at the end of Rise of Skywalker. Rey was the power of one. Rey and Kylo, power of two. Rey with the force ghosts were the power of many.
Just when people think Star Wars has hit the lowest bottom of the barrel, it keeps just getting lower and lower to the point there is no "bottom", because Star Wars has damn well shot down into the centre of the Earth and well out of the planet itself.
To be fair, lightsabers used to be the deadliest weapons in the galaxy before Disney took over. Now they're glorified glowstick bats that don't kill, don't dismember, and bounce off stormtrooper armor. So yea, why not give it to a kid to play with as a toy.
The OG lightsabers were a Force focus, not a laser sword. That's why they were only a Jedi weapon because you needed to channel the Force through the focus crystals in the light sabre -- and that's also why it could block anything and cut through anything. Of course, Lucas himself overturned that idea with the Phantom Menace and Prequels -- people like Ligh sabers? More light sabers -- kids with light sabers, robots with light sabers, light sabers for everyone!
My children once spent 30 minutes building a very cool life-size house out of giant Lego style blocks at an indoor park. As we left, we expected to see other kids use it and add to it. Instead, the next child who entered destroyed the entire thing in under 5 minutes. (ETA and then left.) Ever since then, I've used that as a lesson for them that that anyone can destroy. It takes no talent, vision, or skill. Anyone can take a beloved franchise and ruin it.

I still have the original VHS tapes, and rewatched the original trilogy (the pre-disney updated versions) with somebody for their first time experience. And it does not look like a 47 year old movie, he accomplished his job without adding lore breaking adaptations, the worst being a small few frame update to the Han vs Greedo scene. His 1997 re-releases gave children of the millenial generation a chance to appreciate it with their parents who had watched the 1977 version in a cinema.

Lol I actually don't think that was an accident. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the actual goal. Since we are dealing with writers who don't see these "eat, pray, queef," empowerment retreats as giant balls of cringe like normal people do.
The witches are so powerful they can easily kill a Jedi using the thing they said wasn't a weapon. Then they all died, at once, by a fire, caused by a single girl, in a giant fortress made of stone, with people inside the fortress who can project barriers and control gravity.
Make it make sense 😂😂😂
"Science, bitch!" :o)
And a fortress that doesn't have a fire suppression system or just a couple fire extinguishers. 'Cause fortifications are well-known for not ever needing any kind of fire-fighting capabilities.
So that was you interpreted by an episode meant to leave the audience wonder what happened? Stop sucking on lead pipes.

Why are you so invested in children’s media?
@@leos4243 Star Wars was always made to appeal to both children AND adults. Look at videos of the lineups for Empire Strikes Back in theatres from 1980. A large portion of the people lining up are adults. Stop acting like this is something made only for five year olds
And the jokes on us
@@leos4243 I got a better one for you.Why a proven SA enabler gets to produce kids media?Is this your way of saying let the morally bankrupt people help kids grow up?
Fun fact. After 3rd part of this BS, the number of ratings per episode on IMDB fell 3 times. People so uninterested that they stopped even giving ratings
More than uninterested, disgusted. Good push for us to cancel D+
This episode made me just compleatly lose interest in the show because it was so non sensical. Yesterday I finally was bored enough to watch the rest of it. The rest of the episoded did not clear any of the nonsense of this episode but just added more to it. The only good thing I can say about this show is that the like first episode was good because there was still some actual interesting mystery, as the show has "Mystery" tag on it in Disney+, and the fight coreography was good.
I’m 70 years old and I fell over, broke my hip and almost died a few weeks ago.
That was more fun than this episode
And if someone made a TV series out of your story, it would get a higher audience rating than Acolyte.

The universe owes Jar Jar Binks a massive apology
They especially owe it to his actor, Ahmed Best.
The sheer hatred he got from fans, simply for playing a role, was despicable, and would make any "Fan backlash" the 'Acolyte' stooges got look like mild smack- talk in comparison. He was deluged with hate- mail in which he was called pretty much every anti- black racist slur known to man, and which repeatedly contained death threats. One night at its worst point, Best earnestly considered self- deleting, but thankfully was able to pull himself back from that abyss. That, I'd say, is what REAL "Toxic fandom" looks like.
So, yeah, I'd say everyone owes him an apology, especially now that 'The Acolyte' has shown us that the Star Wars universe can contain things much more annoying than Jarjar.
@@Adamguy2003 amen brother. The Prequels got undeserved hate cause the actors didn’t do what Harrison Ford did and told Lucas “no” on a lot of dialogue choices (Harrison when interviewed had even said he threatened to hold Lucas at gunpoint and make him read his own script during the original trilogy). And now? Nobody is telling Disney “no” except the fans and we just keep getting more and more shit. Episode 7 was the worst of it all…
No.
Just because they wrote Characters much worse since then,
does mean Jar Jar wasn't crap.
I’m pretty sure they can retcon all of this by having Han Solo being freed from his carbonite prison and saying “ I just had a horrible dream Chewie”
Nice!
Unironically, that sounds like a great meta joke (that doesn't ruin anything by being too self-referential) if Star Wars is bought by a different company that values it and retcons all of Disneys stuff.

Hear me out, I've got an idea:
Keep everything the same, except them using the force, or "thread", to pull it off.
Make it a genetics experiment, to see if they could hybridize the two species artificially, and them being force sensitive is just a coincidence.
It retains everything unique about Anakin, and they can keep all their bs.
The jedi only see the force as a weapon. - D+
50 years ago, one of Obi Wan's first lines:
"Its an energy field CREATED by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together."
Even their bad ideas aren't even original
even in the Last Jedi, Luke tells Rey "the force isnt a power you have". This is so fargone that it's even contradicting THE LAST JEDI...
Disney only concerned with who gets penetrated with what by They / Them now.
Hell, even the comics officially sanctioned by Disney themselves reference the force as an energy that all living things possess.
The only reason the thread nonsense would make sense is if they took the idea kind of hinted at in Ashoka to the absolute extreme where literally all planes of reality were connected "by a thread"
The idea of the thread wouldn't even be that bad because in star wars theres an absurd amounts of interpretations of the force, but thats as far as they went. Interpretations. This is a fundamental reimagining of the force while also pretty shamelessly hanging onto the original concept of the force.
The Acolyte is just another symptom of writers that don't answer to anyone, and disney not giving any scrutiny to the star wars franchise. Despite it being the biggest money hemorrhage in their check book.
"There are alternatives to fighting." These people want to reduce the Jedi the same way they've demonized and reduced our Founding Fathers and the explorers that traveled the world. They are doing the exact same thing. They're painting the Jedi as White colonizers lmfao....
Of course not. Do you think that ANY of the KK & LH crews even considered the idea of asking GL about anything? Or that they might READ A BOOK (or three) from the heydays of SW? Nah, brah.

Yes, as Lesbian Headlamp alluded to, the Jedi are CLEARLY the villains here. What a crock. 🤦♂️🤦♂️
It's not hard to see that the backstory presented in the episode was unreliable. It was Osha's point of view of events. There's clearly things Osha either didn't see or had her memories suppressed/manipulated. One of the Jedi took an ascetic vow and committed suicide from guilt. Sol somehow knew Mae started the fire when he supposedly rushed to the temple in reaction to the fire. We'll likely see what actually happened as the story progresses.

The OG lightsabers were a Force focus, not a laser sword. That's why they were only a Jedi weapon because you needed to channel the Force through the focus crystals in the light sabre -- and that's also why it could block anything and cut through anything.

My children once spent 30 minutes building a very cool life-size house out of giant Lego style blocks at an indoor park. As we left, we expected to see other kids use it and add to it. Instead, the next child who entered destroyed the entire thing in under 5 minutes. (ETA and then left.)
Ever since then, I've used that as a lesson for them that that anyone can destroy. It takes no talent, vision, or skill.
Anyone can take a beloved franchise and ruin it.

The fact that the creator of the show said that she thinks that it’s canon that R2D2, an astromech droid designed to repair ships that has a MASCULINE programming is a lesbian, is enough of an indication that she shouldn’t have been let within 50 feet of Star Wars.

After Andor, there was hope. Then they went back to spewing garbage.
@@gR22401 there never was hope. As long as Disney owns star wars this franchise is cooked. And since the ownership won’t change star wars will be perpetually awful.
@@roccociccone597 I mostly agree, but Andor was great. Eventually, there will be more quality Star Wars content.

@@hurdygurdyguy1thanks you dude, Im too kinda woke, what lets be honest isn't BC someone os gay ir racialized that i hate this show, its because its bad and have so many flaws.
I once joked that Disney's Star Wars writers are so crap that they'd replace lightsaber battles with interpretive dance. "Let us settle this conflict through the art of dance!"....and they did it...I WAS JOKING..... WTF!?!?!
Actually I’d be impressed if they did something like that as a reference to the auralnauts redubs which turn lightsaber fights into raves. And restructures the plot to be around jedi wanting to party, but we all know Disney would screw up even a reference to something funny with an ounce of creativity.
It's because every time someone thinks of a joke - there's a leftist somewhere in the world thinking the same, however, not as a joke but as a good idea ;)

I am convinced AI wrote this garbage.
180 million. Let that sink in for a second. They spent 180 million for this garbage.
More likely they spent $10 million and pocketed/embezzled the rest as hush money to keep Harvey Weinstein's assistant's little black book buried....
How the hell do they even have the money to spend 180 million?
If they wanted garbage they could have just gone out back to the dumpster for some free garbage

Crazy this shit cost 180M wtf
Money laundering or vastly overpaid.
@@StrongandGrandtax write off
Something tells me most of the money wasnt used to make the show. The makers and certain other hustlers just robbed Disney blind and used wokeness as an excuse to do it. Thats probably what happened with the Rings of Power too. There is no way in HELL that thing ACTUALLY cost a billion.
The first 3 star wars film combined cost $225M (each adjusted for inflation)
I think Disney has become a money laundering apparatus on a multiple country scale... only explanation... such a business should have gone bankrupt aeons ago yet it is still standing and publishing 'art'
Anyone who would have said "I think this is a bad idea, guys" quit or was fired years ago.
Good thing these people aren't building airplanes...OH, never mind!
Of course people quit or got fired, because those people were wrong.
It is not a bad idea, it is intentional.
It is propaganda out in the open, made by using once beloved franchises. And nobody is calling it.
What’s crazy is there’s still people supporting phony Filoni. Like he’s going to turn things around, when he’s part of the problem.
He certainly would be fired, he used the wrong pronounce "guys".
And labeled as anti progressivist, anti activist, homophobe, mysogynist, racist and an opressor. Star Wars died but it helped us see something... and always remember the old Star Wars characters... the words of old Yoda, the light and heavy oriental-like nature of Qui-Gon Jinn, the whole manipulation of Anakin done by Palpatine... the same pathos that's being used in media against us!
I cannot stress enough how amazingly perfect the insertion (phrasing) of the “Yass yass!” clip throughout this and subsequent reviews of The Acolyte is… Bravo! 😂😂😂😂😂
The quote “Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made.” Is the best quote to describe modern western entertainment. Nothing even comes close to that saying to describe these people. Such a brilliant quote.

I hate that I hate Star Wars now. 11yo me would be sad.
Andor though!?
When your 11yo self realised that George Lucas doesn't give two shits about quality or his product, just money, which is why he re-masters and re-re-releases, but keeps changing stuff just a bit to extend the copyright, and then stops you buying the original or a faithfully re-mastered original.
Nope, gotta make more money, yo!
@@AndrooUK
lucas can write a story tho and disney is like.. is like.. is... zzZZzzzzzZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZZzzzzzzzz
@@AndrooUK George made small adaptations to make them more watchable on a quality standard. I still have the original VHS tapes, and rewatched the original trilogy (the pre-disney updated versions) with somebody for their first time experience. And it does not look like a 47 year old movie, he accomplished his job without adding lore breaking adaptations, the worst being a small few frame update to the Han vs Greedo scene. His 1997 re-releases gave children of the millenial generation a chance to appreciate it with their parents who had watched the 1977 version in a cinema. Completely different to what is happening now. I for one appreciate his artistic view of "A project is not finished until you are finished with it".

I am sure he knew what he was getting into and the pay was not bad either, no need to feel bad for him as no matter how bad the series might be it will be liked enough by the modern audiences to not be considered a failure.

remember friends, the old extended universe books still exist. we don't have to acknowledge the disney "canon". ignoring it won't make it go away, but not looking at it and turning our attention to the actually good star wars content of years back, like the old movies, animated shows, and the legion of pre-disney books written by timothy zahn and the others in that group, can offer some solace.
Sure they could have made the Trawn trilogy and that would have been massive for the old fans and great for the new fans😮

I didn’t think it would be but Andor is the best show in the post Lucas era.
It at the very least captured the gritty-ness and realism and sense of struggle and danger the empire posed.
It also did it without space wizards.
It also has the single coolest space battle in the franchise.
