I agree. I liked Master Sol at the beginning, and could tell the actor was channeling Qui Gon, like he said. But then he was turned into a winey, impulsive, emotional man-child in flash backs. And I knew from the beginning he would have to undergo a character assassination since this is Disney SW. I expect he will be further demonized in the eighth episode but perhaps he will be saved by the uninteresting protagonist(s) that we’re supposed to care about because they’re “special” and they’re victims of the patriarchy or whatever.

Denis Villeneuve took $165million & created Dune Part 1, 2hrs 35mins of a masterpiece in cinematic history. Disney has taken $180million and so far produced over 3hrs of utter nonsense. Half the Acolyte scenes are shot on sound stages (very obviously), with some out on location scenes but nothing as impressive as Andor. After 7 episodes I can honestly say, it hasn’t been worth the money invested. The story is just boring. There has been no character development, so you don’t care about the twins, or their coven who all died in the stupidest way imaginable, looked like they were unplugged whilst still in the Matrix. Everyone called the ‘Sith’ reveal about 3/4 episodes before it happened. Episodes 6 & 7 haven’t progressed the story in any way. Episodes 3 & 7 are the same episode, Disney could have saved time, cut the repeated parts and just merge into one long episode. But worst of all is the show runners obvious complete and utter ignorance of the lore surrounding the universe. Why did she have to devalue the prophesy of the Chosen One, by making out that a coven of all female witches did it first less than 100 years previously, what was the point? Other than pushing her own agenda. Shattering canon by having the one character from the Phantom Menace who disavowed the existence of the Sith, saying they’d been extinct for a millennia; being part of the Jedi group talking about someone trained in the Jedi arts killing Jedi. Making Jedi overly emotional. Despite what Disney & its shills try to push as to the reasons The Acolyte has bombed. It comes down to a complete ignorance of the lore, breaking established canon, poor scripts and otherwise talented actors wasted in roles that I am sure they did the best they could, with the twaddle they were given.

That block from Torbin of Kalnacca was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen in all of media, not just Disney Star Wars. It makes literally no sense. You can’t possibly hold a blade steady like that from even a mild force pushing against it, let alone a massive wookie bringing an insanely hard strike down on you. Torbin would have to have the strength of Superman in order to maintain that block. This series is just straight up unwatchable

[@Mistral434]

I can think of a reason why that block might be possible, but it's still just as bad. It's a lightsaber, and the blade is entirely made of light, isn't it? Like plasma or something? So it should be very low weight, the density of highly condensed light, and thus carry very low kinetic force. But then, why would the Wookie make such a move that is only meant to maximize kinetic force?

[@dylanhawthorne4842]

@@Mistral434 the blade is lightweight, but the hilt is heavy and also the transfer of energy from a blow especially from a Wookie would be very high. If you were holding a twig and the mountain from GoT swing full force another twig at you it wouldn’t matter the weight, you wouldn’t be able to block his blow perfectly like that. Using the force is really the only possible explanation because true lightsaber duels as explained in cannon are so rapid and fast paced, as well as powerful, that you are essentially allowing the force to guide the combat. So maybe because the wookie is “possessed” Torbin can use the force to a more powerful extent but it’s a very weak explanation that’s very esoteric in the lore that you wouldn’t just casually throw in a scene like that. Especially these writers.

This show is literally from "The Producers": Pick a really, really, bad script that you know will bomb. Hire bad actors/directors/tech people. Do everything you can to make sure your production will fail. Fundraise a lot more money than you need to make the show. Let's say you need 500,000 to make the show, raise 1,000,000 instead. Embezzle the extra. Be creative about it, but take the bulk of the money for yourself. Show bombs, you tell the backers, "sorry, we lost all the money, we'll do better next time." Enjoy your embezzled money knowing that the IRS won't bother looking at your books since the show didn't make any money.

Sol somehow stabbing Aniseya when shes in a gas like state is still confusing me. Also I like how this episode confirmed that it was all the Witches and Mae's fault when the episode was suppose to show the sins of the Jedi. Koril started to attack which caused Torbin to ignite his lightsaber. Its all their fault and all because Aniseya wanted to insult the Jedi. Also remember TORBIN took his own life because of what happened in this episode yet here he couldn't care less about the witches, he was eager to have them gone. I refuse to believe Master Indara somehow killed all the witches at once, it makes no sense. I want to believe that she just knocked them out which would mean that Mae really did kill all the witches when she caused that fire because this episode has done nothing to answer the questions they were building up. So many people were saying that the Jedi did something so heinous and that Mae wasn't Mae but it really was all Mae. I will say tho in the episode the council actually didnt tell them to come home. Torbin asked if they'll let them go home and Indara responded with no. Anyways all the signs point to Darth Tenebrous making an appearance. If he does show up then that just might be the only real cool thing the show has ever done.

Torbbin realized, it seems, that if he hadnt went with his rash desire to go home, to defy the orders of the council, try to defy the will of the force.....Wh do Jedi allow slavery in some instances and attempt to defy it in others?

Remember when they first announced the series, and we thought it would be a series about a younger Sheev Palpatine, and his Master Plagueis? God, how great would that have been? Instead we’re stuck with a coven of angry “peaceful” witches who call the force “the thread”, and are powerful enough to make Anakin the third (technically second) “copycat” force child in the Galaxy. The Jedi are now murderous oppressors, who obsess over force sensitive children. Established Star Wars hall of famer: Ki-Adi-Mundi is now a liar and a hell of a lot older. There are brand new force powers that I guess were forgotten to time by the events of the prequels…? Sigh… I’m just over it.

Same. Pretty sure he just said pocketbook rather than wallet. Theory misunderstood that line, but hey, he's not perfect. I understood Theory's point, though. Star Wars usually doesn't have a ton of blatantly sexual stuff in it. Leia with Jabba was one, and that was like, a BIG deal due to how different it was from the overall theme. Plus, it served an important point: to present the evil of Jabba and the Star Wars underworld. There are a few mild references between Anakin and Padme, but nothing overtly raw. Just basic couple in love stuff. Worst part to me was always Luke and Leia being... you know. Star Wars nearly went Targaryen back in the day, lmao, but Lucas never let that go any further. Some of the recent stuff has felt sexual for no reason. I have no issue with all the varieties of sexualitites and lifestyles, so don't presume I'm upset about anything like that. I just feel ANY overt and raw sexual content that serves no point to the plot is out of place in Star Wars. IF they stopped claiming "it's for kids", then it'd be different.

It's about connecting to The Force to do the act, not the object (size, shape, weight, etc...) itself.

[@bobbybrown1258]

We have literally seen Yoda in star wars 2 struggle lifting heavy objects against dooku. You pick and choose what you want to nitpick to justify your hate bonet

[@Gundamsuit.]

Its almost like it was a lesson that needs to be learned. If the chosen ones son struggles to lift some rocks and a ship, why would you expect some jedi knight to pull it off. Was luke a pussy in your eyes?

A story based around the jedi fucking up could have been interesting, but not this… Im not opposed to a story about a certain group of Jedi fucking up a mission, having to report that fuck up to the council and then having to deal with the repercussions down the line. But what the hell even is this show? What importance do these girls even have? One is constantly flip flopping and has no real motivation and the other is just a cry baby who failed being a jedi and all of it is culminating into what exactly? We were better off getting a revenge plot by Qmir and who created a dark offshoot of sith like the Brotherhood of Darkness of some shit. That would be way more dope than this travesty

[@garavin]

Hell, the entire Prequel series was about the Jedi fucking up and having to pay the ultimate price with the destruction of the order. So the flawed Jedi thing has already been done. The Acolyte is just Headlund's fanfic / self therapy for whatever has made her such a damaged person. It bears no resemblance to the real Star Wars universe. Sure you could have the odd Jedi who makes impulsive decisions, ignores orders, and gets things so wrong that they cause a major fuckup. But those Jedi don't become Masters. If they did, the Jedi Order would've ceased to exist thousands of years before this crap is supposed to be taking place. What's most galling to me is that we're told these are the Jedi at the height of their power, yet all we've seen is weakness and stupidity from them. I feel sorry for the good actors who got waylaid into this mess. They deserve better.

Have you ever heard the tragedy of Leslye Headland the Foolish? It’s an old KK legend. Leslye Headland was a woke writer of the alphabet brigade, so arrogant and so foolish she used her influence to destroy Star Wars canon… She had such a knowledge of the social justices that she could even put her agendas in a franchise that had no need for them. The woke side of writing is a pathway to strange things many consider to be unnatural. She became so arrogant… the only thing she was afraid of was losing her credibility, which eventually, of course, she did. Unfortunately, she taught her apprentice, Amandla Stenberg, everything she knew, then her apprentice scissored her in her sleep. Ironic. She tried to cancel others, while only cancelling herself.

Yes, holding the bridges up instead of the girls made no sense, but lets be brutally honest here. NONE of the usage of the force by Jedi or Sith have been consistent or make sense the vast majority of the time throughout all the SW universe. We see force users continually force push and force stop weapons (including light sabers), bowling over myriads of bad guys or moving structures that weight a ton, but not once do they use it in light saber battle to get the upper hand, even though they have used it on a limited, non-lethal basis during duels. Many a duel could have been ended quickly by a little force push over a cliff or something. It has never been consistent or logically used in any of the media. The only explanation is that there is a code of ethics amongst duelers that victory or defeat is based on your light saber abilities and not using the force lethally. Why a Sith who are out to destroy the Jedi would be cool with following rules makes any sense makes no sense to me, bu I don't know...

The metal detector felt like they were making fun of Star Wars

[@thehoerscorral8565]

The entirety of D+ Star Wars has felt like Kathleen Kennedy wants everyone to laugh at Star Wars. Like it was laughed at in the past as dumb nerdy stuff when she suffered under George and Steven but once the prequels brought it once again into the spotlight and made a bunch of money and everyone was talking about it, she had enough. She knew she had to destroy 'this stupid nerdy male fantasy crap' that her stupid nerdy bosses made. And now she's got the keys to that kingdom, and instead of improving it, like a bitter ex-wife she is doing her level best to completely eradicate and destroy all the good from past Star Wars, so nobody will ever speak good about it again, not if she can help it. The force is female, indeed.
