The Acolyte REACTION - ... (E6)

[@SupercoachPleb]

I've ran the numbers. There's now been officially 30 minutes and 26 seconds worth of recaps and credits. A whole episode.

[@ZensanFGC]

Some of these creators just want Star Wars on their resume final product be damned.

[@BaloneyPoney007]

Truly wild to think how much money was spent on this and there's just so little substance in this show.

[@NotSoSvenn]

I dont even want them to make the show longer. I want it to be faster paced and getting through the important plot in like 2-3 hours. This show lingers and lingers and the twin story is getting focus when its the worst.

[@grantmiller6570]

I think it really demonstrates that Headland has no real talent or ability to put a cohesive, intelligent show together at all.

[@JoShErrrr.]

Wish we seen dooku out for a swim “ oh master kenobi “ 😂😂

[@TwistedReality13]

Yea that bit was hilarious 😅😅

[@Cjohnson725]

Smilo Ren definetly the new star of the show. Also his scar looked like a whip lash to me....

[@jsim5475]

Yea she was his master and she may be the secret sith within the jedi order which would make palps disguise as senetor as obvious as Clark Kent.

[@MrRiceGuy95]

She wont be the sith, shes been in the jedi for a long time and it just wouldnt make any sense going by her character in the books...not to mention that would literally be a copy and paste palpatine situation ​@@jsim5475

[@nmh83]

An unexpected pleasure to bump into today fella. Couldn’t not say hello. Keep up the grand work. Best, Nick

[@SofieAndMe]

Manny Jacinto's performance made Amandla Stenberg look even flatter. Same with Lee Jung-jae. Qimir is interesting but given there are only 2 episodes left, we'll get more exposition rather than characterization for him. And the Jedi are going to be evil in the 1x7 flashback.

[@rippingbag]

Always feel like Skyman’s bartender or priest during these reaction videos. Allowing him to bare his soul during these dark times. I just listen and provide as much understanding and strength as possible.

[@YourNeighborhoodItalian]

The ship was broken cause that little goober Bazil kept fucking shit up so Sol should recognize the truth

[@overheatedeskim054]

no may pressed him for answer's and may getting emotional while waiting for an answer gave herself away. Sol already had this conversation with osha and she didn't get emotional like that last time.

[@dandavies1774]

He’s either the first ren or he’s got a master like tenebrous, we shall see …

[@stevenbrown8340]

It’s hard to enjoy a 30 minute show when you’re only happy with 10 seconds of it!

[@Orionzeus05]

Whenever I see these live action 6-8 epsidode series, I'm always brought back to Star Wars Rebels and how every episode of that series was tight. By the time you finish an episode of Rebels in the same time as these series you'd have had an amazing adventure in itself, a full background exploration for one of the characters, multiple action sequences, and a tease or furtherance of the main overall plot. For some reason in live action Star Wars series, they love for episodes to be mostly empty of plot, action, and driving story beats, to the point where I'd rather they just keep doing animated series because they're always bangers

[@rawleigh729]

I refuse to watch it anymore so I’ve been just watching your reactions

[@laccountant1114]

Same

[@Kaido_928]

Same

[@OliverJolliffe]

at least you had the sense to stop, some are still watching it and refusing to stop complaining; thats just stupid to me unless you are actually creating content to make money from

[@michaeldamico3000]

Dude...episode 5 gave me a glimmer of hope, after the first 4 episodes of not a whole lot, but then this episode wasn't much at all...

[@thegamingkitchen8429]

So you're still watching it. 🤡

that island is in Portugal, Madeira. Awesome place!

[@goodputin4324]

Not in Portugal but the island is part of the country.

[@fibs6267]

Vernestra’s hyperspace nausea is from the books! i’m glad they mentioned it lol

[@cdulez]

Theyve added quite a few things from the EU in this show,im pleasantly surprised!Cortosis,lightwhips to name a few.

[@MrRiceGuy95]

Lightsaber whips should have stayed in the bin in my opinion, awful idea and i think it just looks terrible 😅 ​@@cdulez

[@michaeldamico3000]

"Osha...my eyes are up here" - Qimir Mae "factory reset" a droid like a damn Samsung Light sabre whip from the trailer...just someone killing a bug I ❤Bazil

[@FelsvonDrago]

As a Star Wars fan who was actually there in 1977/78 and experienced everything you describe as an "epic thing" I feel what you are saying! Once again, clear, understandable and well reasoned analysis. Thank you for your calm manner and your apt remarks and your very credible and honest opinion! Thank you from Germany.

[@wonderwomanmillow2281]

Woher aus Deutschland? Viele Grüße aus Hamburg😊

[@alicyamatheson7877]

I'm really enjoying this show, but absolutely get not every fan will enjoy every bit of SW that gets put out. I appreciate your respectful way of saying this show just isn't for you

[@fade.2.black.ffd8ff]

The 'light stick dancing' in episode 5 was depressing, no one was doing any real combat as no one was aiming at targets, depressing

[@realzeno4493]

I agree , last time I was impressed and felt together was end of mando when we saw luke

[@GeekOwtLowd]

So... Green lady and Trinity are the big villains of the show? Green lady is clearly trying to cover up the events, and is probably somehow responsible for Smylo Ren (as evidenced by his whiplash scars). And the only way I can make sense of the witches thing, is that Trinity and her apprentice Torbin were responsible for the deaths of the witches. That way, Mae is redeemable as she only killed the evil Jedi, and the guilty padawan killed himself. And it's like... who cares about any of this, because who cares about these random characters?

[@acadianflatpicker]

He is most likely Darth Ren. A discarded rogue Sith, that started his own thing AKA Nights of Ren.

[@johnathonpedersen9844]

I'm thinking Sol is actually a sith lord and Smilo Ren is an 'acolyte' or follower of the sith religion, looking for a pupil. But maybe what he needs is a Master (Sol)

[@ericlandriault5748]

17:05 that's a nice coffee cup skyman.

[@Relt88]

You may want to check out Demon Slayer anime if you want a nice Good vs Evil story that’s written well.

[@thecosmiccall3802]

To be fair to the Jedi investigating the scene, I think she was using some form of Pyschometry to get a better understanding of what happened as it was clear to her, probably unfathomable to the Padowan, that a Lightsaber was used to kill these Jedi.

[@OEx25]

100%. This episode, like most of the show, didn’t work great for me, but there was nothing wrong at all with this scene to me

[@realfeeltalktv6207]

Light Saber Whip is some kind of S and M idea made up by the director and her gf.

[@PLDprojects]

Actually it's from the books before they got involved...

[@Tony-ssj769]

the hands together thing from Dragon Ball is the epic Ki attack called the "Kamehameha" it is an energy attack that is capable of destroying planets so it can be equivalent to the power of a death star based on the user haha. Anyways in Dragon Ball they can do Ki pushes which is similar to force pushes in Star Wars.

[@ComradeCommissarYuri]

Just notice how rotten tomatoes tried meddling with audience scores before the next episode came out Which is so bad they’ve even lost Grace Randolph 😂

[@TwistedReality13]

Lmao at the Dooku bit 😅🤣

[@matthewwukovich4385]

So excited for this review lol been waiting for it since last night

[@ThomasSoles]

I was so excited for the Acolyte. And then I could barely make it through the first two episodes. Nothing clicked for me. The wooden acting. The twins (c'mon, Disney, enough of this plot device), the terrible writing. I have not watched any of the other episodes, but I love Star Wars, so recaps here are good. Hope this season redeems itself. I would love a proper evil Star Wars villain that is never redeemed - which is what I thought this series would be.

[@Ian-Omega]

What exactly were you excited about? I didn’t see anything in any of the trailers that got me excited.

[@ThomasSoles]

@@Ian-Omega before the trailers. I was excited for a dark Sith tale. I figured Andor style story. Was not ready for Disney twin princesses fighting people with butter knives.

[@cookiefantasybauer2143]

Same here. Before the Trailers, they described the show as an adventure for an acolyte. I thought we get to see rich of Sith lore and exploration of the dark side. A character who has to hide and be cautious but at the same time he/she/it has to study the dark side. But… that’s not what we get sadly Btw sorry for my poor English… greetings from Germany here xD

[@JohnlivesontheIsleofMannow]

180 million and they don’t have the talent to come up with a name for a planet with cortosis running through it 😂😂😂

[@derekchristianson6675]

He helped the witches create the twins...when the Jedi showed up...he killed them (the witches)...either Sol or that green whip woman were involved or maybe both of them. One of the few things enjoyable about this show is trying to speculate on all of the unanswered questions and plot lines.

[@Rendesza]

I loved the clarification and revisiting on your thoughts on Episode 5. While the last episode was refreshing with the combat and bold decisions of killing off named characters, the series as a whole so far has been frustrating, to say the least. I agree with many of your sentiments in this video. This episode was noticeably slower and Osha and Mae have completely lost my interest which is a shame considering they're the lead characters. Qimir has become vastly more interesting with the mystery of his backstory and Sol is still a favorite. There's not much room left for the series to improve in my opinion. But at least we'll have the complete picture in a couple of weeks.

[@thomassmart4088]

classic line from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - "Finish the fucking story man!"

[@chrismcfetridge620]

I still have a feeling that he's going to be one of the 1st knights of Ren, which would be interesting, too be honest it's the only reason why I'm still watching this series..Only 2 Episodes left!..

[@Br0wnCh3]

I think his like a religious sith. Satanist for example, might come of Christian like in their manaorisms,but there beliefs are all about me me me. I get that vibe from smilo ren. His an introverted sith. His energy comes from self medicating hence why his only after one other to teach. His so good, I can understand why many might turn to the dark as it’s easier to be bad then good.

[@jessicamacgown8251]

The Sith all follow a specific belief system. You aren't a Sith just because you are a darkside user. You're a Sith the same way you would be a Jedi.

[@muldoone6920]

Reel rejects, kyle katarn, catherine lasalle, louisejulie, are just amongst the many channels i used to love. Channels which clearly sold out to disney. They all make the same points, which are ofcourse random or straight up wrong/invalid. They all dismiss the accusations the same way, they all throw shade, and hate. The kicker? After this episode, they are all pretending the Acolyte is great now, that it's even better than the original trilogy. They must be on every drug imaginable.. their sense of logic has disappeared entirely.

[@therealdonnawagner]

Favreau's version of Star Wars changed so dramatically because Disney fired Gina Carano for expressing something they claimed was racist or bigoted (though, in reality, it was not). It's like they just can't help but destroy every bit of SW from every possible angle.

[@gantz0949]

Like this guy. Can tell he's a real sw fan

[@keithmercer2031]

That green woman is the secret big bad, just have a horrible feeling

[@bobabuoy4409]

Listen carefully to when she said get the bodies, it's obviously recorded later it sounds off. Sol not being able to recognize her as not OSHA it's like what kind of Jedi is he. I'm basically just watching others reactions now the show is hard to watch. Cortosis is from the EU cutting off power but he can use his welder on the helmet and it won't cut it off.

[@zaielpr]

Here’s my theory he was a Jedi that his master Jedi felt the dark side in him and pushed him aside. He went and trained himself in the arts of the Darkside, probably by reading books or some shit he found now he wants apprentice to do the rule of two I think towards the end the real sit Lord will show up kill Qamir and all the people that saw him or anybody that’s there. He will clean it up and I think he will defeat sol he will use his force powers to clean swipe sol memories And make it look like sol went rogue and killed the Jedi and that’s how they will clear up any sith be involved

[@proudsaiyanprince2651]

Curious, would you ever consider speaking with the EFAP guys? You have such a knowledge of the dark side, I..I mean Star Wars lore I think you would make a fine addition to their collection.

[@kylebasler3191]

We need a ASMR vid of us getting Jedi training from Master Skyman🙏

[@gonaye1]

Dear Skyman will you ever do a special discussion or recap of your Top-10/favorite moments from Disney+ Star Wars (so far)? Would love to hear you gush over the well-executed Star Wars moments that you've really enjoyed (even if it's just a good scene from one of a not-so-well executed series) as a sort of 'please keep doing these things more' message to Disney going forward...

[@calvinfisher5886]

I like your reactions quite a bit. You represent common sense/the 'middle' of SW fandom. You're not in love with every show, and not a hater. Balance.

[@tommylopez278]

Did you notice the Kylo Ren theme song when Qimir forced healed Osha?? I'm thinking he's a Knight of Ren

[@s.m.h.8150]

He didn't even force heal her, damn it!

[@AlanAvis]

Sith Guy gets naked and we can't have Slave Leia.

[@TwistedReality13]

Yea they better never say we objectified her again 😅

[@traviswilcox3472]

I like how you watch like many others do, chomping down on some food & drinking it up ;) I also think the bad guy is the best character in this series & feel it’s best to call him Qimir, his actual name over Smile-o Ren. Qimir deserves better, I think he’s cooler than Kylo Ren who was a turd character. 💩

[@HeerTimmethy]

I loved this reaction/review a lot more than your reaction to the previous episodes. I don't think this episode was very spectacular but I appreciate your open-mindedness going into this episode, thank you :)

[@SwaggerDolphin1]

I want to see you react to Vinland Saga haha

[@exodusgamer4205]

gonna be honest here as a starwars fan....i prefer pre disney ...but i still enjoy disney era star wars ....the disney star wars fans are toxic against those upset with disney ...but those upset with disney as og fans are just as bad....nitpicking whining crying etc.......we get it disney fans dont like og starwars fans......og starwars fans dont like disneys star wars blah blah blah who care......ill always be og starwars fan but i still enjoy disneys stuff aswell....there not perfect but its still fun to watch as a fan of star wars...and people making a big deal over it should learn to relax on both sides and just sit back watch the fucking content and either like or dont like but atleast be grateful there still star wars for us all ...not need for the division just enjoy the star wars universe.

[@fakenamerodriguez8901]

13:50 😂😂😂

[@Keitek]

One of the many things that annoy me about this show is how long are they going to stretch out this Sol confession? Sol - "I'm going to tell you everything... but not this episode" Sol - "Ok. I'm ready to tell you everything... later." Sol - "I might die so let me tell you the tru..." *knocked unconscious Sol - "It's time to tell you everything but I need your sister here too."

[@heikira438]

The show should have just been about Smilo. Seems WAY more interesting than blank face 1 and blank face 2. Also, greeting a young women n@ked when she just regained consciousness. Made by Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant you say?

[@Lucillium]

I waited all day for your reaction

[@itsjusttap3010]

Still to this day….. I dont get the defense or even what’s to like about this show aside from the few actors I liked. Like Gru (despicable me) “Wow this is garbage. You like this?”

[@jsim5475]

If they had made this about sol and smilo this could of been really awesome the lesbo concieved twins ruin it

[@roger5maggio]

Vernestra was his master … lightwhip scars on his back.

[@Quickscript]

predictable

[@CaptDeadpool954]

So light sabre whips don't kill now either. I mean that scar runs from his shoulder, down his back across his spine. It sliced a bug in half but, I guess just grazed him? That is piss poor lazy if so. Would have severed his spine. Should have so we could be spared this series

[@GreenFalcon926]

It's kinda strange if they do that, since in the comics, she wasn't evil, or even hinted at being corrupted... but then again, it wouldn't be the first time this show has messed with something.

[@roger5maggio]

@@GreenFalcon926 she was the Jedi master like obiwan with Anakin. This isn’t meaning that she could be evil … maybe she’s always on the light side but keeping a huge secret from her past

@@commonwealthcommunitywatch6036 so Disney overpays to what write it off as a loss because they’re laundering money from what illegal source? They’re a big company and bloat accounts for the high dollar amount. Everyone involved in this show on the producer level probably did very well indeed.

[@LegitScott]

Tbf her Hyperspace nausea is actually from Legends, so for once they actually did some research. Still the worst series ever.

[@npGuerreiro]

The writers are unfortunately unable to write subtly, so if something is intentionally SHOWN and too obvious, it's gonna happen. We see the green emotionless shady Jedi Master whom doesn't want to inform the High Council use a WHIP SABER (also the Moth just attacks her out of the blue, in the daylight, with no light to bait it, just to force that plot point to happen...), cut to Smilo Ren and he obviously has a huge scar on his back that looks like it can have been made from a WHIP. HMMMMMMM

The lightsaber phallus innuendo just F killed me lmao. From a self-proclaimed Sith. In Star Wars. A whole thirst trap scene with Osha creeping on the guy who just brutally murdered her new bestie. Then deciding to don his helmet lmao. Honestly, you have to be F brain dead to overlook this horrendous writing. This abomination is the worst Star Wars I've ever seen.

[@MisterRubbertoe]

It’s frustratingly bad. When did Sol realize it wasn’t Osha with him? Why does he even assume Osha is alive to rescue, given “the enemy” was aboard his ship in her place? Why does he assume Smilo Ren is alive, and that he hasn’t already killed Osha? Why did the beaver not immediately tell Sol? Osha cared for all of those Jedi that died - why on earth would she even listen to a word Smilo is saying, let alone get swayed by it. My god, it’s just so, SO bad… and the only people capable of acting are Sol and Smilo’s actors. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@tyborg314]

what sucks about being a star wars fan is that they give us nothing that we want. We would like them to give us existing stories, that we already love, but don't want disney touching them because they will bastardize them, so it's a rock and a hard place. Best case scenario is disney selling away lucasfilms

this show have a Warner Channel show vibe.... sometimes look really cheap.

[@SodoMojo22]

You are spot on, Last episode (5) was better, but because you weren't invested in the characters due to episodes 1-4 being so bad...it made it hard to enjoy episode 5 as everything feels off. Also the primary appeal was more about the shock factor of some key characters dying. I wish Mae/Osha had a different actress, the show would be considerably more drawing. That being said I do like Master Sol and kinda like the Sith guy...but even they have had some really bad writing/lines. I am right with you on it doesn't feel like Star Wars, the heart and soul is missing....I am however trying to be objective, it's just so bad in parts. I however will never get over "Attack me with all your strength" "What will you do? I'll kill you" "The power of maaaany" amongst other terrible lines.

Hopefully they can come up with something decent for the finale.
