The Acolyte - Episode 2: Why The Force Field? (It's Not What You Think)

[@LachlanMorris]

One of the only Star Wars related channels that actually takes a step back and analyses Star Wars in a relaxed way. Thank you for the breath of fresh air 🙂

Listening to your reflection made me think back to this struggle in so many Star Wars stories. I haven't heard much talk about this theme. How much we need to hear it! Thank you for making this video.

[@FatherRoderick]

I'm trying to do more of these types of reflections. I'm not sure if it's too heavy handed or too preachy, but at least it's different from all the toxic hatred Star Wars seems to attract nowadays...

[@AMoniqueOcampo]

I'm glad that you're liking this series so far and finding some thematic resonance.

[@FatherRoderick]

I enjoy the series very much, there are always so many layers in these stories...

Thanks for your take. Have a beautiful week

Father Roderick I am thrilled that you have such insightful content. I was an active member of the old Virtual Edition Forums back in the late 90s-early 00s. Wishing you all the best!

I love your Acolyte videos, I would love to see more.

Father why haven’t you finished the show but I understand bc of the this show did on the third episode

[@michaelfalsetto4428]

I was frustrated with how quickly Master Torbin went for the poison. For one, I thought if he was mediating for years, surely he would have come to an insight of his past that was plaguing him, and two, Torbin did not strike me as someone who is a Jedi Master, who couldn’t see past their transgressions and see the other, and be willing to admit fault. But I suppose the point is nobody is perfect. Luke isolated and blamed himself for creating Kylo Ren for instance, and it took him time to ‘come back to himself’ like the prodigal. I think you may be right about Sol having a chance to bring Mae back, will see what the rest of the series holds. Thanks for your breakdown Fr!

Acoylte is pretty good so far, still hoping we get a sith focused show/movie at some point

[@FatherRoderick]

Maybe that's still to come in this series.

Hi Father. A bit off topic, but I was trying to find which podcast episode that you mentioned the B12 issues that you had after switching to being vegan. What symptoms did you have during that time? If there is a better place to ask things like this, do let me know and I'll move over.

So did you give up on the Acolyte ?

What are your thoughts on the latest episode did you feel it was too dark and anti Christian? I am curious to know your thoughts
