RIP Ben Comicstorian 😢🙏
Sucks for sure , I remember when I told him that suicide squad was mid in the chat he got defensive, it’s getting shut down in few months, RIP BEN
@@erickhernandez3423 you wanna spit in his grave before they bury him too?
Rip ben the legendary
What!? It can't be. Rip.
Yeah I'm still in shock about that that guy keeps me updated about the latest comics I should follow etc I follow him cusz he got a great voice to listen to
while Geekdom stating about Disney need to make a good story, I think it's been from 2019 that those industry stop giving what people wanted, when they get opposition and victimized they know it's the right way.
I would have preferred it if they had left it that they were given a blessing of the children through the force... and left it at that.
Their philosophy seems fundamentally at odds with their actions. They talk about how foolish the Jedi are in believing that they can bend the force to their will and how it’s actually a thread....but yet by the end of the episode, it’s clear that what they did to make those children was bend the force to their will. 🤦🏽
9:23 Mae was the one at the end and I don't think she knows Osha is a live, but she might have sensed it.
The Force has made two single mothers. It's a Black man.
As a black guy i must say that this is the funniest comment I've read all day 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's Yasuke
hahahaha
@@bryanward535I laughed harder at your response 😂😂😂
That joke is as created as this show. 🥱😴
Doesn’t matter if you like it or not, the episode being this divisive is going to further split the fandom, which is bad for business. Look what happened to the Snyderverse, the main products split the fandom and less and less people showed up for the sequels and spin offs. I see the same thing happening here. You lose the normies, you lose your franchise
This kind of reminds me of what happened to hip hop. Hip hop was created for the beautiful purpose of creating music and having people put down the guns and dance. It was an explosion of art and creativity. And the main characters were black and hispanic men. It was our art. Then the industry came in and destroyed it to the point that it is utter trash, and the main creators of the art aren't even the stars anymore.
So this means that Plagueis was self-deluded to think that he was the only one who could create life with the force. Idk how I feel about that because it's the entire thread that Palpatine dangles over Anakin's head.
Plagueis was removed from canon ten years ago. I know a LOT of Disney fanboys love to headcanon it as still being part of Disney Star Wars, but it isn't, and my question is, why would you even WANT it to be part of Disney Star Wars? I prefer that such well-written stories be part of the universe where Luke succeeded in rebuilding the Jedi Order and left behind a strong bloodline, thank you very much!
You do know Sidious was lying to Anakin right? He’s literally the devil. 😂😂😂
@@jeremyfields9009??? There is no reason to believe palpatine was lying to anakin, Especially after episode 9.
@@saberiandream316except that whole scene in Revenge of the Sith where Palpatine tells Anakin about Plagius. I guess he just made all that up right?
a dark side user being deluded in their power? Perish the thought lol.
The worst part wasn't the messaging drama.
The worst part of this show is that it's f****** boring lmao.
It’s not that boring compared to Book of the Boba Fett.
@@MrTragedious986both are fucking boring, this one is vastly worse
@@Needler13 how? Like Book of Boba Fett suffers an identity crisis and they didn’t have any plan with Boba, the Acolyte is at least being consistent with its story so far.
💯 😂. Its so boring
@@MrTragedious986"so far" is 3 episode, not even finish the season
Did it ruin it? maybe not. Did it make it any better? Hell no lol
I actually think it did make it better. It’s showing Anakin was created by the light side naturally and the twins were created dark side unnaturally.
The Jedi council said Anakin was too old to train so why would they take these kids ? This doesn't make sense and just want to paint the Jedi as bad ppl.
So it sounds like Leslye Headland retconning the prequels. Eh, this is why I avoid Disney Star Wars.
different era bruh, rules can change over time.
This is 100 years before that and just goes to show why they were so opposed to taking in Anakin.
@@notmephisto1375 if this is the reason why they don't take Anakin, then with that logic the Jedi will know that they're sith out there then.
@@Gamem0ver those witches weren't Sith, and spoilers Yoda already knew. He literally tells Mace about the Rule of Two.
This show is not terrible but not great either. I seriously don’t have any opinions on it. It’s seriously that mid.
I mean, it can still make anakin’s birth mean something. As these women, used the force and knew of it, and used it to sire children. But anakins birth, it was the WILL of the force, because his mother was not a force user or knowledgeable about it.
That anakin is the chosen one, because the force willed him to be so.
I never considered it that way, but I guess that's an acceptable point of view. I just don't care about Disney Star Wars, though.
Anakin is always the chosen one no matter what, sometimes the force can be used in mysterious ways.
@@saberiandream316 I’ll tell you what I don’t like about EU, is that every character like Kyle or Starkiller always solve the conflicts by themselves because they are too OP.
Agreed. The witches were actively trying to create life, while with Anakin, his birth just happened through the Will of the Force, not someone trying to create life
In one of the Vader comic runs (2017 I think), isn’t there one panel during a dream-like sequence that implies Palpatine (or the sith) influenced Anakin’s birth?
"Did THIS ruin Star Wars?" is literally a title that could go back over 20 years and have it still be relevant
might as well go back to the 80s for the ewok movies
This is a new level of bad.
It doesn't ruin Star Wars, because Star Wars has been ruined for years now.
The twins not looking the same bothered me. The one playing osha looked like a boy
you realize that twins don't have to look alike right
@@mocha9072 true, but the adult versions are identical twins
@@e3vL1 The adult version is the same person. There is a level of suspension of disbelief required so they can make a tv show, rather than actually filming twins to adulthood.
Maybe there is something to them being fraternal twins though, or not being that identical looking.
That’s a real life child you’re talking about…
@@juicebowl it would have been better to hire identical twins to act the child versions, or do the same as adult version have one child actor protray two people imo
When it comes down to it this is without a doubt a lesbian space witch fantasy from Leslye Headland That's it 100% that's what it is...
That’s exactly what it is.
And I'm okay with that. 😅
@@notmephisto1375 Okay you're a clown that's why... That's not what Star Wars is about and it never has been. peace...
I don't think the force pregnancy thing takes anything away from Anakin, all it does is explain how he was conceived through the force.
This seems to borrow more from Ancient Egyptian and Dogon (West African Mali) Mythology. Amma known as the egg in which the universe was contained. There it comes out emmuculate twins.
In the story one of the twins kills the other mainly due to the imperfections of the twin. Like Egyptian and Dogon mythos its typically a story of balance.
May and Osha were mistakes, they were conceived unnaturally. One being evil one being good.
Anakin was naturally conceived by the force he is basically what May and Osha as one being.
Anakin is Darth Vader and Darth Vader is Anakin both imperfect and perfect beings of the same soul
May and Osha are two different people who happen to share the same soul.
Anakin is a play of Judeo-Christian beliefs which was said to have borrowed heavily from Egyptian/Nubian nile Valley African beliefs.
So i can see why whoever wrote this i can tell where the influence comes from. I can even see what the ending will be like and how it ties to back to the prequel/OG main continuity timeline.
Think of the trinity in Star Wars (Father, son and daughter). I am more convinced this has something to do with the Mother Abeloth.
I also think May/Osha will be linked to the daughter which will therefore make them linked to Ahoska Tano which means i believe one of them will be her incarnated version.
Terrible episode but it didnt ruin Star Wars imo
Yes it did
@@AussieDadAndrewnah not really
Episode 3 is still lit
The stuff happening in series is NOT that important man…
Yes it did. Yes it did.
@@AussieDadAndrewHow?
Star Wars have been ruined.
How come no one is noticing maes full name. Mae-ho Aniseya. Little on the nose close to mayonnaise?!
This show is boring and filled with poor writing, but it is not a Star Wars killer.
From a certain point of view…
The Force is a religion and it’s divisive now.
On this planet that we live on, there are thousands of interpretations of how the energy from the universe works.
Meh.
I’m bored writing this comment :)
No it didnt. Dude you have to be playing some 5d chess to come to the conclusions that some people are coming to. They DIDNT redefine the force. They're basically early nightsisters. Totally different magic. Nor did they imply immaculate conception like Anakin. They actually said it was a secret how it was done, implying something nefarious. Back in the day we didnt have to be so scared of the politics of whoever made the content that were hyperfocused on looking for something that could be considered woke. I'm no woke dude, and I just don't see it in this show. Yall just wanna be mad
I be honest, I think you're beating around the bush too much and I think you should just call out the elephant in the room directly. The lore is being mess up right now because of disney constantly focusing on this hard political push instead of just making an good star wars show that respects the past lores of the show/movies.
You won't get an good story if they can't move away from that since that's been the source of problems with SW for the last 7 years with them prioritizing more on "messaging" than on good storytelling.They probably did this for the shock value and controversy to gain more eyes on the show since they are probably not confident to make it good.
I'm still waiting on kill bill meets frozen and murder mystery that was billed this show was going to be!? We know who the killer is in the 1st 10 mins of the show! The only real mystery after ep 3 is are all the witches really dead and did the jedi kill them? Oh and the masked sith dude which I'm pretty sure is their mother pretending to be a man cause the galaxy has no place women like them.😂 But the writing is terrible and it's boring as book of boba fett. Story and characters are important but this seems to forgotten in Disney star wars!
I mean the witches using the Force to get pregnant is different from the Force acting on its own to conceive Anakin.
Feel like a perversion of the force from the witches.
I guess it depends on if you believe the Force willingly acts on its own to manipulate the galaxy or if it merely binds the galaxy and all things together.
Who said it acted on its own?
@@matthewlinscott7055 I believe that's some people's interpretation of how it happened because in The Phantom Menace that's how they explained it.
@@matthewlinscott7055 Shmi didn't ever say/imply that she ASKED the Force to give her a child so how did she conceive Anakin? Did someone tell or ask the Force to produce The One and she was chosen? Like the virgin Mary was chosen by some Force/the Holy Spirit to give birth to Jesus?
I didn't see anything controversial. A sisterhood, ok. I guess they would be all lesbians given that their options are limited. They had their own take on the Force, which every other force cabal tends to have. So... yeah. The episode was alright. I thought the episode could have benefitted with more time. Like just ten extra mins could have helped out a lot. We could've spend some more time with the Jedi, show them talking about the sister's some and why their opinions differ. I didn't like the whole fire thing, due to it just not being done well enough.
The kid twins not looking identical bothered the hell out of me!!
wondering if they really obsessed with appropriation, why not cast a real twin, even Pacific Rim a "mindless" robot punching movie do more cast triplets because they can't find quadruplets
I can't log back in I guess someone at disNey hq decide to log my true fan base since new hope log out so now I can't watch episode 3 Happy Pride Mouth 😊
I can't wait until the big scissoring sequence next to the boiling cauldron of magical love elixir!
This episode was some brainwashing bullshit
Short answer: No, it did not. Forgive me if I'm mistaken.
I agree 👍🏼
I'm actually enjoying the show so far. Surprised I am.
Agreed!
*A whole Episode and I still know NOTHING about these Witches 😅. Atleast with the Night sisters they're seen as a threat, but these Witches...* did what excatly that made them feel like outcasts? Im so confused dude lol
The force is a living entity. Its not a thread. Its not open to interpretation. Different factions can have incorrect views of what it is but the sith and jedi are wise enough not to try to define it. The main problem is that they are trying to redefine what the force is.
Star wars is done. Put a fork in it.
In my mind immaculate conception is not the the same as using space magic to cause a pregnancy(plus I love the anime vandread). As for the prophecy anakin fullfilled it when he went to the dark side and took part in order 66 due to rhe vast gulf in numbers between sith and jedi.
That is certainly a fun idea, that the prophecy was mistranslated, and it was NEVER a good thing, ever.
Prequel Fan….. this RIGHT HERE is some BS…..I QUIT
Worst garbage on tv.
I don’t think it breaks canon life has been created by the force before it’s just dark side force magic that’s very looked down upon
Abilities some would call... Unnatural.
Yes it did sadly
No it didn’t.
@@MrTragedious986
Well the numbers will prove me right
@@Sosapotence3001990 not anymore when the show is doing just fine with viewership. I hope you don’t listen to a bunch of grifters because so far they been showing their true colors like being racist, fat shaming one guy, hate woman, and showed an out of context to video to hate one actress.
@@MrTragedious986 The numbers don't lie. This is coming in with less viewership than Ahsoka, with more money being spent on it. That's wasteful.
@@MrTragedious986
It's down 3 million at least from Ashoka, bro smh lol.. Those bad people you listed love this show
Disney Star Wars is alternate universe for me and EU is cannon it’s got enough material in comics and books to last me a while
George Lucas made it clear that Star Wars is for children. It's really funny to hear people over 40 thinking that the franchise's stories should be written for them.
12:05 *Cough* Critical Drinker *Cough*
I loved the part when Mae lit a stone corridor on fire with a book 🙄
What is the obsession with how fire works???
@@notmephisto1375 Yeah it's so cringe, what you should critique the show is how Mae did a 180 and 100% ok with offing her sister.
Like bro, that shock value is crazy.
@@WildWeavileshe's offing the whole village and people she called "mothers", I guess you only watch the review clip
@@notmephisto1375when the show still in hand of Goerge The Male Lucas, you complaining about sounds in space
Star Wars has been dead for a long time
Cringe lesbian fan fiction everywhere you look.
Yes...yes it did.
Episode 3 at least let us know what’s going on. Force users can manipulate the force to create life. It’s considered to some the dark side. The Jedi are against this. This is how Anakin was conceived. I don’t see anything woke about episode 3 just a covenant of force using woman. Episode 3 should have been episode 1. I thought 1 and 2 sucked because there was no back story… it’s just bad producing and directing…….
Disagree because building the mystery is important and would have made the following episodes pointless, plus we want to introduce the characters in present time and it's more fun to jump into a story already in progress. That's very Star Wars thing to do.
Seemed more like frustration than a mystery to me.
@@FallingTimberGames that sucks. Hope it gets better for you.
Fanning the flames😂😂😂😂😂 I'm not watching it
*Yea... episode 3 was something alright 😅. Just kind of boring to be honest.* I just found the acting and writing pretty weak. Interesting ideas on the surface I guess...
If wooden acting and piss-poor dialogue can ruin Star Wars (of course they can lmao) then yes, it ruined Star Wars.
I don't know if you're going to try watching it anymore it sucked back in the first episode second episode I loved Star Wars before this sure it had their ups and downs some episodes were better than others some movies were better than others the Disney movies kind of sucked but I could see some joy in it this series I wanted to burn it with fire and throw it in a deepest hole ever to be forgotten to like it never existed so I can ignore that this ever happened let's Star Wars never able to go this down into this bit of misery
Maybe? But we can all agree that star wars needs to be placed in better hands away from Disney and woke mined writers
What Disney has done to the Star Wars franchise is sad & pathetic. It makes me hate Disney even more than I already do
Wanna know how to make a million dollar franchise: take a billion dollar franchise and leave Bob Iger in charge
Don't watch then you dope!
They need actual writer especially those familiar with the series. Creative being part of the writing and less copy and paste would be better.
For myself after watching 3rd episode it was a LIE!!!!!! they didnt ruin SW because nothing happen in the show.
I am not offended, I am repulsed by how bad a taste this show and disney is leaving in my mouth lol. Its just flat out bad. Bad writing and its making me want to just forget about Star wars all together sadly. I thought we were getting cool sith lore and background and instead we got this...We aren't allowed anything novel or imaginative anymore.
WTF was this episode?.....I know the whole Acolyte is pretty much garbage or MEH at best, but this was cringe AF....
I guess, like 80% of the SW fandom agree, Disney, or better said, DisDEI's SW is not canon. I just cancelled my Disney+ subscription. What a joke....
At this point, people aren't offended over a single thing. It's the overt feminist/political messaging in every single thing they own over the years. People are just done, dude.
Star Wars was ruined a long time ago. Episode 3 of The Acolyte is just more typical Disney trash. Especially the chanting scene.
“Disney doesn’t know what the hell the Force is.”
-George Lucas
Queer Socialist Marxism and intersectional feminism is the Disney creators passion. Plaguing everything Disney creates. Ruins every story and series.
Things happen too easily, and are forgotten too easily in this show.
An example of both; the Jedi show up searching for children being trained, but they don't have to search at all. The covem does nothing to hide the kids. They just say "no kids here." Then the wookie is like "nope, there's two right here." The Jedi call those 2 kids out...then never bother looking for any other kids.😂
Mae's quest to find the Jedi is just "where is your Jedi."
Squid Games Jedi says it's impossible that Mae is still alive. 30 seconds later Osha tells him Mae is alive and he says "I believe you." No convincing. No evidence. From impossible to definitely so, just like that.
There are at least 6 more examples. It's just silly.
12:13 finally. The people who cry about this are very loud and the episode to me was actually enjoyable explaining from Osha's perspective of her backstory. They are keeping the mystery hidden which I like. But yeah, the people that usually call people over sensitive are the ones whining right now. It would be different if it was the trainwreck that was 2016 Ghostbusters but like... it's not
Also you really gotta finish Andor man. It's so freakin good
The problem is the MESSAGE overrides the story. Smart people weave in a message with an exceptional story. Not make the message loud and stupid.
Horrible! 2 insufferable brats! And I liked the 2 first!! There's something interesting about the force witches againt the Jedi - but not this time. Extremely boring.
This just sounds like a Bastardization of Anakin's story with Twin Black girls and lesbo Witches! Once again Disney ripping off and bastardizing George story, all 3 of the Sequel Trilogies were rehash of the original Star Wars.
It's already been established that on Dathomir/witch culture, the females are the dominant gender. And this was before Disney bought Lucasfilm. Also the Clone Wars was supposed to show how the Jedi/Clone Army weren't always seen as the good guys throughout the galaxy, especially when it came to separating children from their families.
I mean. I like your take that it’s similar to how the real world perceives religion. Only that religion is divisive by nature. The force is not. It’s explicitly acknowledged and publicly known amongst Jedi, Sith and other force users what it is. It’s how it’s used and and for what it’s used that’s the dividing factor.
If you replace every time they say “witch” with “Women”, and “Jedi” with “Men”, you’d almost start to think the director doesn’t like Jedi/Men
Don't think this is a woke episode. It was a boring episode. I slept asleep. Never woke up, until I heard the credits rolling. Don't think people watching this episode. Will stay woke.
I saw everyone crying about lesbians scissoring or whatever before I watched the episode. But I dont think it even implied any of the witches were romantically involved with each other did they? Seemed more just like plantonic surrogacy. Now dont get me wrong the episode was cringe, boring and stupid, BUT I didnt notice anything "Woke" other than them just being black I guess? lol
Edit: Nvm ok one of them touches the other on the cheek for 2 seconds sort of affectionately while they are having a disagreement. I guess that implies it?
I believe the outrage and fear surrounding Episode 3 were overblown. I didn't see anything that suggested a "forced female" agenda as some claimed. However, I did find the episode quite boring. Additionally, several elements didn't work for me. For instance, how does Osha know so much about the Jedi? Why are Padawans never allowed to see their families again? And why are the witches supposedly discriminated against? The show continues to tell rather than show important story beats, which causes me to lose interest.
I thought it been ?
I agree 100% with your analysis, in every single point. Particularly agree on the movies. This doesn't feel like star wars, and it's not good, but it's not the worst thing ever seen. The movies were WAY worse. Those were proper insults
I think Anakins conception and Osha/Mae is still very different. M/A were created with occult rituals while Anakin was literally conceived by the force. And is Plagueis is still canon then even he didn’t create Anakin. Him and Palpatine experimenting resulted in the force creating Anakin
I’m not necessarily offended by all the wokeness and lesbian agenda, it just makes no sense to me that they would do that in Star Wars. The audience is probably 90% straight males, it’s sci-fi space fighting, it’s always going to be a mostly male. So they’re just setting themselves up for failure, and then shocked and offended when their male audience doesn’t like it. You wouldn’t make a new Rambo movie and have him wear a dress and say he identifies as a woman now.
In my opinion. We still don't know the full context for how these two children where created. For all we know the two Witches used Sith Magic or some kind of mix of Sith Magic with Tech. Personally I had no problem with this episode.
I didn’t really see this as woke personally. If night sisters exist, it’s not hard to think other covens exist. This episode just wasn’t that good. I don’t really say this lowers Anakin’s importance because the will of the force made him and I don’t see that here. The dyad stuff of good and evil is taken from a lot of stuff,good and evil etc. yin and yang etc. it was in Dave Filloni’s clone wars with the gods and shiz. Different cultures are going to interpret the power of the force differently, just like the night sisters do and have different abilities etc. It just isn’t that interesting so far. The show is whatever and could have been a lot better with a few tweeks. The Jedi are out of character here, the Jedi aren’t depicted like this. They kinda forced themselves on these people except sol kinda? mei’s attitude kinda doesn’t make sense in the first episode because she has that cringe ass line “fight me with all your might”. Here she has those evil tendencies and does whatever she wants. Show could have been good but it’s just kinda meh. Not because of woke or whatever and I don’t really see it here, they never really say “men suck or whatever” it’s just a group of women lol gotta take a couple of leaps to make that conclusion imo.
They already shat on anakin's prophecy in rise of Skywalker by replacing anakin with rey.
I agree that different aspects of the force should be explored but anakin being born of the force was part of the prophecy and this witch thing violates that.
As for the outrage culture like doomcock and his ridiculous conspiracy theories, they intentionally milk an angry audience to make money. They're whole career is making money off of angry people.
It doesn't really break canon imo, and tbh I really don't think it affacts Anakin being the chosen one. However, one theory is that this could lead into Plagueis experimentation of midichlorians that lead into Anakin?
This is absolutely spot on. This show is neither good enough to help Star Wars nor bad enough to really damage/destroy it. And the woke stuff is only a problem if it distracts them from writing a good story; complaining about woke stuff too much really is pathetic even if it's a bit weird and annoying sometimes.
The mother did say “I created them” as if she had the power and force of creation coming from herself, whereas Anakin’s mother had no say or will to be able to create Anakin it was from the power of the Force to create Anakin with an abundance of Midichlorians in him, it’s not something a Disney witch can create, in fact when you think about it, it’s something like holy Spirit like Jesus describing it to Nicodemus when he said “ the wind blows where it wants to, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So it is with everyone who has been born from the spirit”. It is the same with Star Wars Force. It is not something you can create or choose at your own will or power anymore than you can choose to be born, the Force is the only power and will to create of its own and chooses who it wants.
And this is something that the woke lesbian crowd from Disney does not comprehend. They are very fleshly minded and think it’s all about them!🤪
They are egocentric movie makers for their own self gratification and clearly not in touch with rational reasoning people of sound mind.
Walt Disney would be rolling over in his grave if he knew what all these perverts have done to what he started, after all Disney is supposed to be child friendly and not polluting their innocence with deviant lifestyles and woke identity BS.
It's all definitely intersectional feminist messaging filled with trans allegories, but I think they handled it well enough. The Force as a thread stuff came off across as something similar to how the Dathomir witches view/use the Force as Dathomir magic.
The immaculate conception thing I'm not a big fan of.
I think their reference to being considered “dark and unnatural” explains it.
The way palpatine talks about it with Anakin, he makes it sound like people who used the dark side to create life were shunned by others. And really you gotta think Plageius heard of it from someone.
Anakin was still the one the prohpecy was about. For all we know, there could even be similar prophecies all over the universe about different people or events
Imagine all the years of history and all the years of inquisition in central Europe that occurred due to witch burnings (and the crazy things they were accused of doing) and then feminism comes to vindicate all of that.
Saying you understand why it would offend ppl, but then saying it doesn’t offend you because you’re above it sounds like you’re dissing the ppl it does offend is wild. Stop being a fence rider, you should care if they’re peddling certain politics in a place where they don’t belong. But like you said, you’re a grown man do you lol
Agreed, the people who are complaining about the "woke" message need to stop being so sensitive and actually grow some balls. Sadly, grifting about "wokeness" and how hollywood "hates men" is the way to get views these days. Pretty sure these grifters in the "go woke go broke" movement are laughing behind the scenes at how sensitive and whiny these people are.
I don't think anything Disney do going forward can ruin Star Wars worst than what they have already done. They should stops shitting on what George Lucas created and focus on making good or at least passable entertaining films and shows.
After all the hate Ive been reading and hearing, I was expecting SO much worse. There’s nothing earth shattering here. It’s an echo of the Anakin origin, throwing in a different denomination of force users (the universe is giant..Jedi don’t have exclusivity on the force or philosophies around it). The child actors had issues but they were way better than Leia in obiwan or even Anakin in Phantom Menace.
This episode was absolutely not the death knell to Starwars that people are crying about.
You are using the wrong word. I don't think most fans are offended at the primary use of women or the lack of use men in this series. The problem is always the story telling. But Disney has been successful at least labeling a certain part of the fan base as being offended or taking offense at their product. And you apparently have been persuaded to this kind of labeling.
This works for Disney the same way it works for you because you say you don't get offended at this shit but you also say you think it is petty. This then redifines the so called offended fans as being petty which is even a worse description.
It is therefore not to much of a stretch of the imagination to go from petty to racist, to misogynist, to phobic.
You see where I am going with this? Because this is how your comments here will potentially devolve into.
Better to say opinion instead of offense. There are going to be fans that have a negative opinion on this episode rather than be offended by it.
Just expressing my opinion so hope you are not offended.
Just watched this episode. I enjoyed it. Best I could tell, no Woke scrap. Maybe I'm wrong
Most which groups in Star Wars have always been entirely made of women though. So like it’s nothing new. Hopefully not too many men are offended by this
You can’t really say the witches simply have a different interpretation. With religion in real life, there’s nothing to do but talk about it when it comes down to interpretation. Thing is, if some witches said Christianity is a thread that you can string a holy guitar with, then they DO IT and shred some holy notes, that’s not an interpretation.
Why any of you watch/care/give press to people who think pronouns are more important than education or experience or logic and story and also think "sure Vader is bad, but what about when anakin blew up the death star?" (Anakin was defending both death stars in person against his son BTW)
"Anakin had no father, he was born of the force"
"The force is female"
PEAK STORYTELLING!!!
Honestly I think the best move for all the people that hate this show. .should do videos before the show ends . On how to turn the ship around for the show . Even tho it’s already made . A how each UA-camr would go with the story to fix and make it and up being a show they would like .
I enjoyed the episode, it went by quickly. I agree on the anakin parts of the bid and the borrowing ideas. I didn't register a single thing that said men are bad. Woman got pregnant, said she didn't need a man to get pregnant, makes sense. It seems like clutching at straws to find a problem that can be easily shrugged off.
The twins being created by the force is similar to how it’s implied palpatine used the force to impregnate Shmi in the comics. It also seems like this coven of witches might be broken off or originated from the nightsisters. Speaking of, while we do see nightbrothers but I can’t off the top think of any father like figures on dathomir so maybe the clone wars era witches pro create the same way
I don’t have a problem with more than one virgin birth because in mythology there was more than one. Star Wars is a modern mythology, I like new ideas in the show.
lmao if enough bad content comes out about Star Wars it will ultimately be considered a bad franchise. Let’s see if that happens in our lifetime.
NGL bro, it kinda seems like you're tiptoeing around your thoughts on some of this lol like there's things you really want to say, but don't.
