Ok... This is going to be LOOOOOONG... 1- Ki-Adi-Mundi is in this episode. Where is Yoda then? On vacation? Cooking some root stew on Dagobah? Taking a long leave of absence from the Jedi Order? I mean: he should AT THE VERY LEAST be a Jedi by now... 2- I confess I did not know the lifespan of the species Ki-Adi belongs to. I looked it up... And it turns out Cereans have a very similar lifespan to humans. 65 to 85 years old... 3- That would make Ki-Adi an INFANT at the High Republic period. AT BEST. Nope. A grown adult. I have no doubt Pablo Hidalgo is keying away on his computer as I write this to change all lore to accomodate for this slight mishap... As he always does. 4- All that aside: it's Master Ki-Adi-Mundi that states in "The Phantom Menace" that Sith have been extinct for a MILLENIA. 5- So... Mae's Master better not be a Sith. Because if he IS... This is the most lore breaking show in the history of Di$ney. And that's saying A LOT... 6- But let's assume that some time during this dumpster fire ALL Jedi get mind wiped for some reason... Well: there's this annoying habbit the Jedi have of recording EVERYTHING in the famous Jedi archives! You know: the archives Reva used to find a connection between Bail Organa and Obi-Wan in the "Kenobi" series (another dumpster fire, and the point where I said enough is enough). Even though the Emperor himself could not find that connection... And don't tell me he didin't go through every single file the Jedi had in the archives. That's the FIRST THING he would have done after coming into power. This is a shitshow. In the words of The Critical Drinker: "The Acolyte is a show written by idiots, intended for morons".

[@daemonsw77]

#5 "she" its that albino darth maul wannabe virgin mary

[@ichigen511]

1. KI-Adi-Mundi is int his episode to show how arrogant the Jedi have become when it comes to addressing true danger in the galaxy. Yoda is not in the show because he is high council and this show is NOT about the high council. It is showing how the lower authorities we NOT allowing real danger to be know by the high council. It makes sense to me. 2. This may be a retcon but it just doesn't bother me. He is in this show to make an important point about the fall of the Jedi. He is ignoring the danger and dismissing it. 3. Again it's a retcon that makes sense to me. In case you haven't been paying attention, retconning is a George Lucas specialty and was happeing left right and center in the origiinal trilogy. Darth Vader killed your father -> retconned to Darth Vader IS your father. "Tht boy is our last hope... no, there is another" -> retconned to Leia is your twin sister, you know, that girl you were just making out with. Boba Fett is most badass bounty hunter in the galaxy -> retconned to die like the worthless bitch apparently he is now. Han Solo is gangster and shot Greedo first -> retconned to Han Solo is no longer gangster he is a nice guy hero now he wouldn't dare shoot first. etc. etc. etc. 4. Do you not understand why the Jedi lost power to the Sith? Because they were NOT taking the Sith seriously. The Acolyte is showing how the Sith are obviously here but nobody wants to believe it. Duh! 5. It does NOT break canon. At the end of Phantom Menace Yoda says "ALWAYS two there are.." What does ALWAYS mean to you? Maybe break open a dictionary or google "meaning of always". 6. I didn't like Obi-Wan show either so maybe we can agree on that. Never gonna watch that shit show again. But The Acolyte? I'm really enjoying it.

[@pauloxisgomes]

@@ichigen511 Well... Yes, I can see where you're coming from. I don't totally agree, but you make valid points. The thing is: Ki-Adi does not know of the Sith (or whatever they may call him). He is not part of the group that was sent to non-Kashyyyk ( I don't remember the name of the planet, and can't be bothered to look it up ). So: either every single Jedi on non-Kashyyyk will DIE, get mind wipped, or simply LIE to the Order. I think it will be the latter, since it has been Disney's purpose since they bought the franchise to make the Jedi look BAD. We will have to wait and see.

I've been playing Star Wars the Old Republic. and in the Sith stories you go to a Sith temple built by Vitiate. Inside you find a holocron made by a sith lord named Keleth Ur, the only sith to ever turn to the light without a catalyst, simply through his own meditations. And he specifically says that the sith, the dark side, draws it's power from fear more than most other emotions. The fact that the Jedi are so afraid of everything in this show makes them less than jedi. They are darksiders.

[@stevekelly5381]

I love that they wrote the whole episode with one idea in mind. "Mae cannot ask the wookie to attack her with all her strength. So what else can they do? Right well the wookie has to die first and Mae has to stop being evil altogether. That should solve it."

[@David-vr8rq]

75 here, we who have seen this before the trainees are practicing baton fu usually they show up before the big game. They do need short skirts finished round w bangles and tassels on the top front of the boots. One of the more deadly manouvers is when they toss the baton / staff high into the air , a guard against possible Arial attack , from some passing star destroyer all the the while spining several times then retrieving the self same baton / staff.

[@dragon_slayer2026]

The one, singular thing in this show that could have made all it's nonsense so far worth it was a Wookie Jedi going absolutely beast mode... and he was just killed off screen... I know it's a high bar, but I think that might be the most retarded decision the showrunners have made.

A thing that kills me is that Star Wars has *never* had any idea of how freakin’ huge a planet is, dating back to Empire. I mean if I were an alien looking to track down Shad, and I brought a Space Bloodhound… but I landed in France. Exactly how well would that work out? Not At All.

[@Tyarrk]

you mean "the Empire strikes back"? what exactly are you referring to?

[@kanrakucheese]

Empire Strikes Back is, by far, the installment with the least issues here. The heat from Echo Base should be visible from orbit with even just technology contemporary to the film's release. Luke was guided to the right general area of Dagobah by The Force/Yoda. Han was explicitly going to Cloud City, and the rest of Bespin is clearly an uninhabitable gas giant outside of these floating cities. Now the droids in the original landing so close to Vader's former master people know him as the local hermit (nevermind the "while chasing his daughter" and "they're immediately picked up by his son" added in ESB let alone "the droids used to belong to him" added by the prequels)? *That* is a tiny planet.

[@boosterpatrol]

Yes, Empire Strikes Back. Obi-wan tells Luke to go to Dagobah to find Yoda, and Luke crash-lands pretty much right on top of Yoda's house, rather than in any of the 100s of million square kilometers of swamp that aren't anywhere near the filthy mudhole in question. "Lucky", to an absurd degree.

. 40:00 Sith Vs Jedi. One VERY important thing to remember is temperament. Sith are aggressive, determined and Willing to do Anything to win. Because of this mindset they have a few advantages that Jedi simply don't. Of course when talking broadly about fights every scenario is different, but the more aggressive tend to have the initiative. The more determined tend to be able to continue the fight longer. And willing to do anything... well terrorists.

These are the kind of jedi that are so irrelevant that they die to Grievous off screen, the ones he could kill with 1 lightsaber when he's missing his legs. One of them was seen as relevant and died to throwing knives, because he forgot he can use force push with 2 hands. They didn't even sense the acolyte in the Jedi temple, um real Jedi sensed a bounty hunter on a mission for a Sith during the era when the dark side is clouding their vision more than ever. That era being the Clone Wars. Cad Bane is more of a threat to the Jedi that this chick ever could be. Rule of Two era was designed to train the outliers, the point was that before that they were more even. The difference was that the Sith would work against each other and also what was just before the Rule Of Two era was sort of a Sith council that forbid delving into dark side secrets. This was because it would challenge their power and the status quo. Maul wasn't really an apprentice, for a long time he wasn't treated that way. Maul was like Ventress for a while, more of an acolyte or a pet, so him losing to Qui Gon makes sense as he was hardly a Sith but he also underestimated him. Rule Of Two era was all quality over quantity so, depending on how trained the apprentice was, they could take a Jedi master while the Sith master would require the best Jedi master or a few Masters to kill them. If the acolyte is relevant to the Jedi, in this Era then a true Sith master would tear though them like younglings.

Maul didn’t even lose to Qui-Gon. He pressured him so hard the first time he was out of breath and laying on the floor, and the second time around Qui-Gon had backup and Maul killed him.

You know, just once, I would like a woman director to take sword fighting seriously. That means studying the art of sword play FROM MEN. For example, if I was a director and I was hired to film a Medieval or Middle Eastern story, I would FIRST learn the culture what kind of wardrobe, armor, food and customs the people use to do during that time. Then, the next thing would be defense systems like weaponry machinery like platforms, towers, walls, and boarders. You HAVE to Immerse yourself into plan A, B, and C to make a story as much as the set.

Have you ever seen, "You where never really here" with Joaquin Phoenix? The female director Lynne Ramsay has never done violent scene's before so wasn't sure how to film them. So instead what she did was a fade to black and than you see his hammer (main char weapon of choice) dripping with blood. If your a good director and don't know how to do something find a way to work with it. For the type of movie and very dark content of the story she did great without going over board with the violence by doing the fade to black thing.
