Star Wars - THE ACOLYTE Recap with Zach Weber from Knights of Vader Pod

Jon, the saber choreographer was Lu Junchang. It was fantastic. I love the force fu. I hope we see more of that style in future star wars projects.

What I'm finding hilarious about the reactions to Acolyte are the people that are shocked at the things Osha does. And I'm just thinking , um hello, this is literally a story about someone turning to the dark side. Yes it's DARKSIDE stuff. It's like when Jack Sparrow says " Pirate" I'm just chuckling lol. Great discussion with Zach, Jon.

I have to correct you on something mentioned at 9:18. TROS's final shot is NOT reused footage from Pasaana. One of the movie's editors said this: "That shot was shot in the desert where they shot the sequence on Pasaana, but it was shot for that shot. It was specifically shot for that and then ILM created a lot of that shot, so that's a question for Roger Guyett and the artists at ILM, how they created it. I picked the shot of Rey, which I know was shot in the same desert. It wasn't already in the film, it was for that sequence." Turns out there are only so many ways one can stand in a desert.
