The Acolyte Episode 6 "Teach/ Corrupt" Reaction

[@schutzaustin]

I think the 'unease' with hyperspace may be gesturing back to the 'great hyperspace disaster' that sets off the high republic books. I've only read a couple of them, so perhaps there is a different reason later in the books. I also don't remember if she was in the first book, but I am pretty sure she was present in the starlight beacon book?

ohh good to know thanks for that book insight i knew there had to be a reason for that comment, and thanks for checking out our reaction.

[@DTIII]

Yeah hopefully next week we get the flashback and see finally what went down on Brendok for real. Also homie said the creatures look like nutsacks lmao

[@BrentAgeofGrogu]

yeah it feels like its the episode we will get the flash back in (same director as episode 3 too) and thanks for checking out our reaction nutsack comments and all 🤣

The sabers are larger for a technical reason, theyve done some changes to make them lighter for the stunt work for actors but so that they can be used to gove proper lighting reference on set with the blades, there are electronics in the hilt and blades.

[@BrentAgeofGrogu]

yeah that makes sense, but at the same time it must be kind of hard for some of the actors to yield them (the ones we get from the FX replicas and Disneyland are somewhat bulky and definatly require 2 hands at times to fight with 😂 either way thanks for the insite and thanks for checking out our reaction.

[@kaygee2121]

Yep, it's partly because of the LED battery pack

[@azk9218]

@@BrentAgeofGrogu actually I would say most FX sabers can be used with one hand, but not for long. Being bulky is one thing (most aren't THAT bulky), but they are pretty heavy considering the hilt and the blade, so it is easy to drop them when hitting hard (or especially when the opponent hits it hard) or to stop parrying because of the force hitting the blade.

The Jedi are a religious order, deranged monks as the Witch said in episode 1. They don't work but have nice clean clothes to wear and make sure their hair and beards are nicely trimmed and set. Imagine the huge budget that goes into keeping all those Jedi. The Sith, there's usually only two, keep themselves and are quite cheap. The twins Osha and Mae are basically MacGuffins to the Acolyte.

@BrentAgeOfGrogu I think it’s the same planet from last Jedi where Luke is hiding in and those small ones are probably the same ones that luke drank blue milk from and the one with the whip probably is his former master

[@BrentAgeofGrogu]

It could be, but I have been reading up and it could be a planet related to the i think legends now possibly cannon to where the Cortosis metal was found in abundance (we saw some of it in the cavern in the wall there ) which is apparently an entire different planet (which might be one already connected to the books or not) if it is connected to the books then they may not want to reveal its name due to spoilers to who The Stranger may or may not be or connected to with a certain sith lord. either way it will be fun to see how it plays out! thanks for checking out our reaction.

[@lion4611]

@BrentAgeofGrogu I think the planet is Bal’demnic a sith planet where plagues and his master was in the mining for that material and pleagus ether killed his master or let his master die when the mining collapsed on his master

[@BrentAgeofGrogu]

@@lion4611 yeah it feels like its going that way, exciting times ahead, the bigger question is Plagues his current master, or has Qimir broken away from his sith lord and created the order of the knights of Ren !!! fun times ahead

[@lion4611]

@BrentAgeofGrogu ya and when he said the power of two sounds like a master and apprentice like bane rule of two and it’s cool that a force user uses the force without using sight or senses or hearing anything like Luke when Ben kenobi teaching him about eyes deceive that person and kylo ren music played when osha looked at the mask before getting jump scared by showing jecki dead body

[@BrentAgeofGrogu]

@@lion4611 i now wonder if Osha is going to be able to connect and communicate with Mae thought the Cortosis helmet she put on for next weeks episode
