The Acolyte Looks Like Cosplay - A Star Wars Reaction

[@algabriel8333]

Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting…

[@Kayoss13212]

Not gonna lie, I actually wouldn’t mind seeing their fighting skills outside of using a lightsaber or force powers.

[@plasmawarper5837]

Can't wait to see you walking through stores to show us the "Acolyte" toys that aren't selling.

[@dermagnus8482]

Yes. A highlight every week.

[@swtoysnthings]

I can't imagine anyone making any toys for this show.

[@superomegaprimemk2]

That's as if Hasbro even bothered to make any toys for this, they pretty much know that the writing is on the wall when it comes to Star Wars & Marvel, both are now failing girl brands instead of sucessful boy brands, so the truth is, Disney is now a company in steep decline, just throwing stuff out to see what sticks, while also spending tons of money for no returns, in a sane world, Disney would of shit canned a lot of stuff before it ever got off the ground or never released it!

[@Lonewolf0840]

Hasbro won't be making any.

[@superomegaprimemk2]

@@Lonewolf0840Off Disney products, yeah, the sooner they get out of the contract with current Disney, the better off they'll be as they can then focus on turning their own IPs around, while there is little demand for Disney, things like Transformers can still be saved as that is a bright spot in what they own! I mean, they just ended as of the other day a Haslab, crowdfunder for Transformers and its overall their second most sucessful Haslab project to date and there is a animated movie coming later this year, plus a video game in the works, so Transformers is doing reasonably well in some respects, better than Star Wars & Marvel as the toys actually sell!

And according to leaks from Doomcock and others, this is the first major push in Kennedy's attempt to completely erase the legacy of Star Wars and make it so that Luke never existed.

[@StreetPreacherr]

They've already made Luke's actions completely inconsequential. He helped blow up 2 Death Stars to prevent them from destroying a few planets, but it only provided a slight delay until they were destroyed in Force Awakens anyway. And he killed an Emperor Clone which accomplished nothing. You could remove Luke from the story and it wouldn't make a difference. Sad fall from being the saviour of the Galaxy at the end of ROTJ...

I've kind of given up on the official Star Wars storyline and just view the original trilogy and prequel trilogy as canon, along with the old EU. In my head canon I just ignore the events of the sequel trilogy and I pick and choose which newer events I want to accept as true. Whatever. Kennedy's incompetence just leads me to enjoy Star Wars piecemeal and on my own terms because I no longer trust or care for the official narrative.

Man, that trailer got forced into a video I was watching a minute ago, and it looks embarrassing. Traditonally, I don’t like Star Wars when it has nothing to do with Jedi or Sith, but this is a great example of a director that can’t film fight scenes, and doesn’t understand how Jedi look. Every character looks the ugly ass characters from the newer Disney comics and novel covers. Gonna suck.
