Trinity dies to a thrown pen knife.
"The Jedi cannot be killed with steel." What?😅
Young Ani: nobody can kill a jedi
Qui-Gon: I wish that were true
Ep 3 review is just Shad and Oz doing their Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru impression, after Luke finds 'em.
Says 'bruh' in charred corpse. 😂
I've heard "good things about the 3rd episode. Honestly looking forward to the reviews/rants.
Just want to say thanks guy's for watching this on our behalf
Wait, hear me out: what if this show is a thinly veiled allegory about how Disney (the jedi) took child actors (the padawan twins) and abused them in the "Hollywood way" ...Wouldn't be the first time Hedlan made a movie about what she witnessed her hollyweird bosses doing 😂😂😂
Possibly, I'd lean more towards the rumors that it's about her estranged sister.
Because that seems like the right amount of self-righteousness and narcissism Headland possesses.
Write what you know if you have no imagination to make things up. I think you might be on to something with that idea about HW/PA.
I think your on to something. The jedi are the duhsney and the hollyweird institution.
She definitely participated
Reminder: Brick Face thought _Frozen_ was about incestuous lesbian romance. Her RL sister refuses to speak to her. _The Acolyte_ is apparently a message/love letter to that sister. _DO THE MATH!_
"The poison to kill Kuzco. Kuzcos poison... that poison?"
You mean he should have turned into a lhama?
Even mentioning Emperors new groove anywhere near "Star Wars" is insulting to Emperors new groove.
Headland being a lesbian is probably why she was Harvey's assistant.
He knew she'd pick the hottest women.
@@mr.sneazy8737 She picked the hottest women for Harvey, and they only slept with him to get ahead.
Doesn't mean those women would go both ways and certainly not for hideous Headland.
@@mr.sneazy8737 Tbh I don't think I've ever seen an actual hot lesbian irl, cause hot girls can actually net guys to naturally continue their lineage. Plus who the heck wants Lesbian Headlamp?? Look at that square head!
Yeah, like that big, butch, green gal 😆
@@mr.sneazy8737 I was about to mention that.
This sounds terrifyingly... True.
Guess that large chap really does confirm the old saying "Come to the Dark Side. We have cookies"
"Insert Cartman Kennedy quote here"
LAME AND GAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
“Mom! Bathroom!”
“Oh, that’s a big boy.”
Kung Pow Jedi: "She's an idiot, we trained her wrong on purpose as a joke."
"Face to foot style! how you like it?"
“i am bleeding! making me the victor”!😂
You know that Leslye came to this story because she sometime in her past accidentally watched the prequel trilogy and she was so angry at the fact that jedis are devoid of "feelings" because, as Yoda told to Anakin, they lead to hate and to the dark side. I am so sure this is what her whole idea of "jedis are evil" started from, because lunatics like her think that feelings are the dominant drive in their lives and anybody that learns to control their feelings is their enemy.
Probably...
When I was young, I used to want to be a sith. The allure of the “freedom” you had was tempting. Ut as I grew older, I began to understand the jedi’s perspective, self control, patience, sacrifice. The sith are all about selfishness, power, and obsession. Freedom is chaos without temperance.
Feelings are a huge part of progressive religion. What they say is your feelings matter more than logic rationality and common sense. This is why they want us to agree to men can get pregnant, there are 200 genders and more nonsense. I feel so, therefore it must be acknowledged and accepted.
So, I have this hypothesis. Internet made people lonely, they started to spend much more time alone (even thinking they are socializing online). Then it started to affect their mental health. And with unstable mental conditions, being emotional wrecked people who feel one moment happy and the next after sad, they started to invent these crazy delusional things to self treat themselves.
I suspect internet and lack of human contact to be the mane problem we have identity cult.
Well the irony of your comment is the Jedi aren't controlling their emotions, but suppressing them
Kind of makes you sound like you don't understand them either
Leslye Headland brings lots of young actresses to Harvey Weinstein, who are looking for roles in Hollywood.
Leslye Headland makes The Acolyte where the apprentice (assistant) craves her bosses power
Leslye Headland gives roles in Hollywood to lots of young actresses.
History is repeating itself isn't it?

@@Xbalanque84 no way, seriously?!
We now have fat Jedi is probably one of the funniest lines ever spoken
It is almost as funny as obese woman in last of us show. Like where the f does she get so much food, local grocery store??? This obsession to include both physically and mentally ill becomes one big lunacy.
I have every Legends book on my EReader and every Legends comic on my phone. I have zero reason to engage with modern Star Wars.
I'll watch you tear it apart though. That's always entertaining.
I'd print those if you can. Odds are they'll pull those old stories from the database sooner or later. You don't own anything digital.
Bro it's called the E.U. not legends. 😅
@@CharlesUrban They're locally stored. It's a Kobo not a Kindle.
@@verihimthered2418 True. But a lot of people these days don't even know that anymore.
If you want some current Star Wars, have you tried Empire at War mods?
about as believable as Obi-Wan smuggling a small child under his clothes or grown adults unable to catch a small child.
Kenobi was SO BAD
What's weird is seeing someone who's apparently so well-versed and attuned with the Force that he can make an impregnable barrier just drinking poison over supposed guilt just because he was asked arrogantly. Then again, writing an intelligent dialogue is either above their skills, or would deconstruct Mei's -whatever her name is- entire character and motivations.
She didn’t even try with the poison. She's just like “You suck.” And went, “You’re right. Gibbs me poison.”
Clearly, you haven't read Mary Sue fanfiction before (I don't recommend that, by the way). Sues have a tendency to talk down big bads in a given series, to the point of convincing the villain to completely give up, and obliterating the main plotline entirely. And then, there's nothing left for any of the characters to do but worship her.
@@Xbalanque84 I'm aware of the trope, having spent far too much time on that damnable waste of a site that's TVTropes. I am shocked that anyone would consider this narrative acceptable in any case and use it in a tv series, expecting success.
It always feels like characters are made lesser than the self-insert one to boost the writer's ego. People love seeing adversity, and even Superman fights people who outsmart or outpower him. Lex Luthor is a super genius, Metallo's powered by kryptonite, Parasite drains his powers, Darkseid is a god of tyranny, and Mr. Mxyzptlk breaks reality for kicks and giggles.

The only good things coming out of Disney is all the reviews slamming their productions. I haven’t watch an original Disney show in five years but I’ve watched a ton of reviews about them.
And they are more entertaining than the actual product itself
I’ll rewatch those reviews too. It’s great stuff to listen to while I work when I don’t want music.
I'm a liberal. But man, I hate these Disney Starwars/ MsheU writers with a passion of a thousand burning suns.
they give liberalism a BAD reputation.
These are the kinds of people that are false and sabotaging allies.
Their intentions may be to be inclusive, diverse, etc.
But they go about it in the most terrible, hamhanded, incompetent way.
These writers.
They are all the same!
They can't write human emotions.
They can't write science.
They have NO understanding of basic logic.
They cannot write military stuff (this is Blaringly obvious all the time).
They can't even write proper villains or a proper motivation.
They just cannot write anything worth a damn!
Their intentions are 'f"ck you'.
Can't wait until you review the utter omnishambles of episode 3.
Yeah a fat jedi would be a large red flag.
Poisons can be used for hunting(kalihari bushmen use something like that for their hunting), but if it breaks down quickly it would have to be insanely lethal or it would be easy to survive. It is a 100% plot contrivance though, if you're trying to assassinate someone, you'd want something lethal and undetectable or at the very least impossible to trace.
It’s plot poison. It’s perfectly timed to move the plot along.
No, poisons can not be used for hunting. Venoms/toxins are used for hunting, they're distributed directly to the blood stream. Think snake and poison bites. Poisons are ingested. Think animals that are unsafe to eat, it's a defence mechanism not offensive. Very convenient for the plot that the master was both thirsty and guilty.
I think I lost brain cells trying to work out what was going on based on you discussing this. What on Earth would have happened if I'd actually watched it?! O.o
“Keep it light, keep it tight, keep it gayyyy.” The producers
That shit's loose as hell.
CLASSIC!!!!
Keep it happy, keep it snappy... keep it gaaaaay
“Hmmmm…. Not enough scissoring. Let’s reset the scene and add more lesbians.”
Dumpster fire... anything Disney is a dumpster fire.
I love it when Oz explains his jokes 😂
40:06 they’re not even consistent within their own story. When Sol was introduced he was teaching younglings to close their eyes and sense things through the force. Then later on Mae kicks up a dust cloud and they’re like oh we can’t see her what can we do? How about close your eyes and sense her through the force, which you were just teaching literal children how to do!
Little did we know what Anakin did for the Younglings was a mercy. Or was that Luke? Whichever blew up the Death Star.
clearly that was Padme
If episode 2 is having this effect, I can wait for episode 3 that is "supposed" to drive away the remaining fans.
It won't. I don't think there is any such thing as a bridge too far for remaining fans.
@@cavalieroutdoors6036 It was according to someone that saw the whole series already, but he is under NDA from Disney so he could not elaborate, but I guess we will see what he meant soon enough.
It only drives away the thinking fans with standards who should have left after the nostalgia high of The Farce Awakens.
Based on a description of the next few episodes it sounds like they are trying to turn the Jedi into groomers.
Jedi have always taken children from a young age. This lore established for decades
The Lore never said how they took them many believed that the parents were told the child could be a danger to everyone and so the needed to be taught. Now the Jedi are pretty much kidnappers which is not part of their teachings.@@oXRaptorzXo
@@cjmk5923 “child could be a danger to everyone” oh please. The Jedi literally just kidnapped the children. Most of those kids wouldn’t do any harm. It has been a rule since Lucas era that young children were brought in and never allowed to see their families.
@@oXRaptorzXo really you do know how easy it is to push someone with the Force when angry? Lucas doesn't say what happens to the children in any movie and Qui gon specifically asks Shmi if he can take her son. Only people who want to see the Jedi as evil say they take these kids and never let them see their families ever again.
@@cjmk5923 anakin was never allowed to go back and visit his mother. Also, so by your logic you agree that people are guilty before proven innocent? Because these children have done nothing wrong but you think the Jedi should take them? Just because the Jedi are a good institution doesn’t mean they don’t do wrong things
But there was already a very important character representing fat people - jabba the hut!
Porkins
Rings of Powahhh, Unlimited Powahhh but with 75% more intersectional lesbians
There is a franchise alone, without fans, without canon, without mythos, it has sycophantic mouthpieces. But it doesn't have a community. A community is created by like-minded individuals, with mutual respect and a canon. It is made up of adoring fans both young and old, regardless of belief or immutable characteristics, the well-spring of future Epics. Lord of the Rings under Modernity is an all-consuming, gelatinous blob entirely loathsome of any originality, or respect for the decades-old lore, of the Canon. It simply is now, everlasting. The Company, that which entangles itself in all affairs of the name has neither a lore to respect, nor canon to uphold, nor a fanbase with which to appeal to. This Company could deliver vast sums of money to shareholders without bringing memories to future generations. But of our Lord of the Rings which was a tale of civilisations rising and falling into ruin, and back up again, it has made of a mob of drooling simpletons and burnt-out nerds clinging vainly to the past.
What's the difference between a feminist and a lesbian? No, I'm not being funny. I have no clue. Hopefully, somebody here in the comments can inform me.
@@ScaredLight A feminist is a person (often a woman) that believes women should have more power in society (usually through increased discrimination against males). A lesbian is a female homosexual. They're different, but overlap often in women who just hate men for being male.
Scissor me timbers!
@@ScaredLight Do you know why a feminist floats and a lesbian cannot? Because the lesbian sees only downwards. The darkness of the waters is vast and irresistible. The feminist feels the darkness as well, striving moment by moment to master her and pull her under. But the feminist has a secret. For, unlike the lesbian, her gaze is not downward but up. Fixed upon the light that guides her whispering of grander things than darkness ever knew.
Shad says, " Bigger people would be sith lords." I can't help but think about the rule of 2. A sith lord and his apprentice. There are 2 hosts on knights watch. Quincidence? I think not.
Man, I wish I was reviewing these videos with y'all. I would have SO many things to contribute.
Modern day Disney is great at writing villains....only problem is Disney always believes they've created hero's.
I am so excited for your review of episode 3.
Ewok movies and the infamous Holiday Special were bad?
Disney: Hold my beer.
It's not just that he is an accessory to murder, he is an accessory to the murder of a Jedi and a personal friend FFS!!
May the force go to a mental institution
"Poison is a woman's weapon"
I think Shad was misunderstanding what Oz was saying. Granted, shad has probably read more modern books than I have, and in my experience women USE poison more often than men do, but there's no way I've seen that written or spoken enough that I would consider it a common phrase.
It was used by Agatha Christie in the 1920s and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1940s so slightly modern ish? Also very much a common theme in historical works.
@@MrGrimsmith common theme yes, but Shad was saying that it's common to actually say the words. I even mentioned in my original post that it's common for women to use poison, it's not very common to actually SAY those words.
as someone who is a trash panda of bookworms I can say that there are many competent female writers that write female characters properly.
but none of them exist in Hollywood. many exist in JP LNs and rarely in RoyalRoad(so many amateurs, but that is why so many new voices are there).
it's almost like the "professional scene" for movie and show writers include no professional writers.
what could've possibly caused that?
My favorite part is when Master Penitent said he had red in his ledger, was sorry for his impiety, and corrupting the youth, cheerfully demanding, 'Sith Hemlock, please.'
25:45
There were literally a catch phrase back in 2015 saying "Join the Dark Side, We have cookies" in the war against the first wave of woke.
Characters can only be as intelligent as their writers.
That's why I learned not to overcomplicate my plots because if I don't understand that, how the hell are the characters going to understand?
You know how I said thanks for reviewing it so I don't have to watch it? Two of my friends invited me over to watch the first two episodes last night.
There was exactly one thing I liked in the two episodes, Mae using a force push to make a sandblast when trying to escape the jedi. Why she didn't use that to blind and attack them at some point, I don't know. At least it was an interesting use of Force powers without adding new magic tricks.
That bit about McDonalds was hilarious 😂
Lets just hold a funeral for Star Wars. Let us bury it and walk away.
When did Cheetara leave the order and join the Thundercats? Just verifying the time-line.
With as hard as they're trying to push the Jedi are really morally grey or outright evil, I really think it's going to turn out that somehow someway the Jedi were responsible for burning down their Village Etc
Immaculate conception by the force is possible, as we see with Anakin, but Anakin was made as a result of Plageius and Sheev trying to shift the force in the dark side's favor. The resulting backlash was the force creating Anakin to bring balance. In other words, it's not some random event that just happens because the force is feeling particularly frisky.
Admittedly, this only occurs in the E.U. comics/books (I think), but I think most fans still consider those canon despite Kennedy's attempt to erase them, and Disney hasn't made anything to convince people their canon is good enough to abandon the E.U.
I believe that is, or was, still true for Disney Canon.
26:00 oh nooo. That's body positivity. Letting that guy fall to the dark side, would be body shaming.
"She can't be in 2 places at once"
I mean, with how they set up worldbuilding and travel time, I would actually expect people to do just that...
Really love the dynammic between Shad an Oz....... great serie cant wait for episode 3 heard it is terrible 0o
OZ acting like he was disabled for chicken nuggets is comedy gold 🎭 😂
…. This show is going to be the equivalent of Dr.Who’s “Timeless Children”, won’t it?
My “it’s going to be so bad” senses are tingling.
23:00
Yes...
Thats LITERALLY it.
The FORCE made babies through lesbians.
Im not joking.
The one issue for me outside the rest of the garbage is that the acolyte goes through all that trouble to get in the front door then through all the halls and yet there is a hole in the roof directly above her target she can get in and out of and in fact does so later in the episode 🤔🤔🤔
Nah, don't worry about the "meaningful conversation" they have been teleporting faster than Doctor Who, they've got time for it 😂
The veggie is a lie, there is only cake
Through cake I gain weight
Through weight I gain width
Through width my belts are broken
The pastries shall set me big
"how did this happen? we're smarter than this!" "apparently not"
Man, how long does it take to realize something that was started as commie propaganda will always be commie propaganda?
This show is a tragedy - The fight scenes are generally good; some of the acting is good; some of the characters are likable; but the writing undermines it all.
All the important questions "what does baby Yoda taste like?"
14:00 is this man a wizard :O
*_"POCKET SAND!"_* [massive queef]
Luke Astral projects... so Jedi can be in 2 places at the same time.
Also Shapeshifters exist as seen in Attack of the Clones, the one attacks Padime.
Also Also if she has a twin... presumed dead or not, wouldnt that be the primary suspect?
I agree with everything you say here, except that Jedi can't be fat, Jedi probably can't be glutinous but you don't always get fat from gluttony, you can get fat from health conditions or medications that affect your metabolic rate, or just from having a naturally slow metabolism, for the second that should be countered by the Jedi's active lifestyle but we don't necessarily know that all Jedi continue to train for combat after they become a master, this guy is literally just stationed at a temple not in the middle of a war
but yes to you don't need to see yourself to relate, the modern idea people have-to have the same race/look/sexuality/religion etc... to make it possible to relate is dumb, most humans are smart enough to understand another human who doesn't look the same, [EDIT] it helps with cosplay tho :)
also 32:00 the poison breaks down quickly, hence you can use it for hunting because it will break down before you eat the animal, the only smart thing in this episode and it was probably accidental!!!
May the "forced" be with you 😂
25:59 Darth Baras, nuff said.
This is the era in which the Jedi were at their strongest btw. According to Disney.
I'm pretty sure discussing about trying to stop a murderer counts as a "meaningful conversation".
4:50 - To the point being made here, as a Cyber Security professional, I can confidently say this concept doesn't exist in the starwars universe. I suspect they heard her throw the throwing knives when they hit the ground.
The newly Knighted side kick is written like he's being confident in front of the padawan but keeps being made to look incompetent. It's annoying to watch.
The lesbian mums thing was implied in the episode, someone said during the ep "both their mums died". I heard that and rolled my eyes.
The apothecary, they said the poison decays quickly so needs to be made close by, but then go on to say the apothecary is the ONLY on in town. Then they stake it out 10 meters away from the front door as if they're not in plain sight.
I didn't mind watching the episodes, I can suspend my disbelief quite well but thinking about things after the fact the show quickly breaks down in many ways. Like the good sister when she was in the falling ship wasn't capable of using force pull at all to get her Pip gadget even though she'd allegedly completed quite a bit of Jedi training.
Also, the uncontrolled ship didn't plummet to the planet on a ballistic trajectory. It just nicely glides in to a standard belly flop crash landing despite no one being at the helm controlling it since spinning out of control in the asteroid field in orbit. Magic!
How did the Master Jedi dude watch May die way back when it happened, but she seems perfectly healthy?
Oz is hilarious
Lol the penguins things were called porgs. This is one of the times my memory holding on to knowledge is more annoying than helpful.😅
Oz's chuckle at 7:09 makes perfect sense to me, because I am pretty sure my mind followed the same track as his (not that it is exactly a well hidden path after all of the r-word discussion).
Where's episode 3 review?! 😅 Jk
Episode 3 will be out next Wednesday.
My favorite part was when Qui Gon emphatically tapped Steve Rogers' heart as he drew his last breath.
36:00 I said, "bless you" reflexively despite watching a pre-recorded video...
The fat jedi is called "Chi-ko Roll"
Don't worry Shad! You're not fat (but some folks might call you pleasantly plump). Not me, but I might call you correct.
Does Ono Fuyumi (Twelve Kingdooms) count as modern?
More recent Takase Akiko (Violet Evergarden).
Sounds like I'm also in a bubble.
The 'meaningful conversation" is not just stupid but it's another contradiction. That character said swift justice was needed in the first episode.
-Luck as a super power
-"Create Earth! Wind Breath!" trick.
That's Satou Kazuma from Konosuba!
“He took it willingly so there was no struggle.”-Shad XD
I never thought I would say this, but I'm actually grateful for KK and ThickHead. I have not watched any of their nonsensical output, and never intend to, but the amount of truly hilarious output from the brave reviewers that took the punishment on my behalf and reported on it is priceless! Thanks guys, I appreciate your sacrifice.
Maybe Anakin was on to something, if only he was born in this era.
I want to excuse the incompetence of the Jedi from their stupidity in the PT… but this just seems next level rtrded
Wouldn't it make more sense for the facility to go into automatic lock down if its security droid were disabled?
Success must be very hard to judge for these projects. What aspects do they consider and with what importance: financial success, low ratings, high ratings, high viewership, few viewers dropping off, many viewers dropping off, a diverse cast, a diverse audience, minimal male audience or money in their own bank account?
So from Chris Gore's reports on episodes 3 and 4, yes it is confirmed that Mae and Osha's parents are both women and somehow conceived. Apparently they were all from a coven of lesbian force witches.
So my theory is that if the parents were perverting the Force, the four Jedi that Mae is hunting actually took them down. Either they started the fire to cover it up, or Mae started it because she saw what the Jedi did and tried to stop them. Regardless, they have already taken away from Anakin Skywalker having these supposed witches using the force to create children. That was the whole thing behind Anakin being the chosen one.
@31:40 cynanide is often used to hunt [for pelts] or destroy small animals. 1080 poison is a controversial poison for small animal pests as well and alternatives are being explorer all the time.
Just not for food animals.....
Can yall please fix the audio. This going up and down makes the video unwatchable.
Seriously
In the ceen where the know it at disregards the guys plan, her plan was worse. He wanted to trap him, then imprison, and interrogate him while in the position of power. She wanted to send a (civilian) in to secretly intarigate the guy by pretending to be someone she doesn’t truly know but he probably does.
30:00
0 out of 10 territory? I think we've reached the negative territory at this point.
23:14
There is actually a Hutt jedi from the old Canon. So.
Canon is dead, long live to E.U.
Which they immediately decided to never address again, also that's not a human
secret lab chair looking rough
She's going up against a wooki without a weapon? All this wooki has to do is grab her and she's no longer a problem
The whole arm pully bit and all
Oz: The Americans are stupid
Me: That might be true but we didn’t lose a war with a bunch of flightless birds now did we?
Love ya guys keep up the work😂
A person can be highly skilled and be nasty. The best carpenter in the Jack Whyte's book, The Singing Sword, was also one of the worst people in the whole community.
It is sooo good to see you guys vibing :)
They fucked hyperspace so bad in Star Wars. I wish they did the Traveler thing where you spend a week in hyperspace, no matter the distance.
