My biggest problem with "THE MESSAGE" is they keep hiring people who can't act. There are tons of people from minority groups who can act like it's a second nature BUT they don't get hired. Or when they do they're saddled with absolute pig barf scripts, directors and/or producers.
Love the original Star wars those three only and the prequels with Samuel Jackson Anakin has gone bye-bye and he's not coming back and thank goodness on him. 👍💯

Just some honesty people. Fans want a rich history of character they love. Amazing well written story without any agendas or DEI. They are also sick of the directors and Disney using fans as escape goats for bad acting and badly written story. But if Directors, Actors, and writers start calling fans names and accusing them of being toxic men, racism, sexism, anti-female, or bigots with the DEI agenda. Fans will fire back and these big companies forget that what makes a movie money is the fans. You insult them with name calling and accusing them of being something just because they want a decades rich story well written without DEI. They will boycott your movies. Back when the Original trilogy was in theaters, diverse crowds of humans stood around the block waiting for tickets, all enjoying each other's company. Nobody was excluded, nobody was told, "This isn't for you!" or "You're too toxic to stand in line with us." Nothing in the movies beat us over the head with politics. This was pure, escapist entertainment, and a LOT of the fans were young men who weren't the alpha coolest bad-asses, and their friends, families and dates. These guys loved being able to escape and feel like greatness was possible. Now? Diversity and Inclusion doesn't include us, not even a little bit. 👇 I have seen Star Wars from the day it started in 1977. Tired of decades of Star Wars rich history being destroyed just to please a DEI agenda. After Star Wars 1 throu 6 it has gone down hill. If it is not made by George Lucas.. It is not Star Wars period..The truth is it is not Lucas Films anymore. It is Kathleen Kennedy Films. 👇 Does anyone ever think of this? 👀 Is it just me or has anyone noticed the toxic feminist man hating female misogynist racist, sexist, & bigotry from Kathleen Kennedy, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, Leslye Headland, Amandla Stenberg, Brie Larson, Rachel Zeglar, and Tatiana Maslany? All the things they are accusing men of doing they are totally doing themselves but claiming it's the men.. I just find it funny they are all projecting their toxic behavior on men when they are the ones guilty of this behavior themselves.. And before you go screaming bigotry. These shows have "NOTHING" to do with women or your skin color. I just have the boldness to say what every other Lucas fan is thinking. It has to do with trashy story writing and acting, but as usual the feminists will and already scream "Fans" are racist, sexist, misogynists, bigots. Again NOTHING to do with your skin color or being a woman. Their writing and story has nothing to do with Star Wars. It is agenda driven trash. Well Lesley Headland & Kathleen Kennedy, and your Director team need to look in the mirror because that is exactly what THEY are promoting. Fans are not blind. So no matter what they try to say.. Guys don't want to see it. Women also don't want to see it either. Which means Feminists will blame men for not seeing it..They are insulting the LBGTQ people and just making people hate us more with their DEI . I am gay and sick of the Disney racist DEI .
We're racist? last time I checked, we didn't shrink jon boyega's picture or cover up Chadwick boseman's face on Chinese posters. Or hire black actors and actress's to use as a shield against legit criticisms. And we didn't name an Asian character Seoul, as in Seoul Korea.
Companies need to start to understand again that insulting your customers is a big mistake. We need to make them understand that with out us they don't get paid.
its nice to see you keeping it authentic and not selling out to the corporate overlords shaming the star wars fanbase for having enough of this low quality, downright embarrassing stuff they've been putting out. thanks for speaking out in the way you have. star wars needs people like you.
I keep it active, at Black Friday prices, as a counterbalance to all that radical right wing shit I usually watch. When they come to get me, I can always claim I'm gay.
Is Starwars the only thing on disney plus people watch? Personally I don't have a problem with the show but all I see is people canceling a subscription off of one show like there aren't hundreds of other movies or shows to watch on there
I wasn't going to watch it. But after the actress who has one facial expression called me racist it really convinced me to watch it and like it. Just like the previous 74 times someone at Disney called me racist for not liking their products.
It was some time during this same same sort of debate around the Wheel of Time that I realized people have no taste. They don't know what we mean when we say the show is simply bad. "What do you mean it's bad?" they say. "It's progressive. It has a lesbian couple." That's all they understand.
KK has her coven. It is so powerful that it can't be cancelled. It grows like a fungus every day with HER Acolytes Les-bian Head-Case who was Harvey Weinsteins personal assistant and not verified eneabler
Disney let me know that im a racisist mysogynist, so out of respect for them ive deleted my Disney+ and leave it for the .02% of America that they are trying to please.
I’m all for diversity but I don’t want it rammed down my throat at the expense of incompetent story writing. Disney are deliberately trying to divide the fan base to distract from the mess they’ve created in Star Wars
@@snarkyjayjust because I don't like The Acolyte doesn't mean that I'm a racist, bigot, or homophobe, for that matter. It's a free country, we are allowed to agree and disagree on things, what law does there say that I gotta like this catastrophe of a show. None. The writing and character development is awful. This director needs to stop blaming the viewers because we are not the problem, we are the ones paying to watch various television series with decent storytelling and furthermore, something to be entertained, not to be consistently bored throughout. Get over yourself and look inward, Acolyte director. Maybe if the show were better written and actually had character development, then maybe, people would actually care enough to watch it!
Did anyone notice in that episode of Mando when Starbuck, I mean Bo Katan crashed the ship into the other ship was taken from a BSG scene she (Sackhoff) did back in the day? There was so much female love in that episode. I loved all four of those ladies and wanted more of them.
sexism (countable and uncountable, plural sexisms) 1. The belief that people of one sex or gender are inherently superior to others. The notion that either gender is superior is sexism. 2. Discrimination or different treatment based on sex or gender. [ Yet, the acolyte cannot possibly be bad, because it was produced, written by, directed, stars, and promotes women! God! I am so bloody sick of misandry!
agreed,I’m watching Andor for the first time and I’m really enjoying it,SW content doesn’t always have to involve the Jedi or Sith to capture an audience,The Mouse should take heed of this fact and adjust their present approach to the IP 🤔
Honestly, it's pathetic how Disney and the media cannot accept that poor acting, writing, and production of movies or TV programs simply won't be supported by the majority of the public. Conversely, great acting and writing will draw people based on word of mouth and honest reviews. How many times must this be proven? Sadly, Disney is so big that there are no long-term consequences for making trash, and they can proudly check all the right boxes in woke signaling.
they never had to accept it, and have the backing of the conglomerates who are pushing this social engineering on a global scale...DlSNEY is just part of the team.
5 seconds of episode one with music gives me more goosebumps than anything else nowadays. its really hard to create something new nowadays, but its crazy with what people are willing to be put of.
The best outcome for the show is to cut to a scene of Yoda waking up from a fever dream of a nightmare to let us know none of the events of The Acolyte actually took place.
I've made this argument for years during these woke times and it's never been more appropriate than here: it's none other than the boy who cried wolf. Wait sorry that was inappropriate, what I meant was it's none other than the non-binary adolescent speaking their truth against toxic, canine patriarchy. In any event, when individuals continually play the victim in situations where they are not, it cheapens experiences of those people who are actually victims. So much so that we no longer care when something happens because it's lost its importance.
I just want to send Snarky Jay into the Disney office and have her put these idiots in their place! And these journalists are paid to support the big companies so they can get continuous work. So their voice holds no weight whatsoever. And lastly, bashing the fans just pushes them.. those who once paid for the product.. much more further away!
When the Lead Writer is taking to twitter **IMMEDIATELY** after the episode to defend and explain it..., that should tell you everything you need to know
One thing I don't get about Star Wars fans is that they complain so much about "The Acolyte," yet they watch it every single week and pay for the Disney subscription every single month. As long as Disney is still making their money, they don't care about your opinion.
Well said! You’re a natural motivational speaker! By the end of the video you had me pumped! Star Wars has been such a big part of my life growing up. I could probably recite the first trilogy and a fair bit of the second trilogy but I cannot bring myself to watch the Acolyte.
I actually LOL when you showed that the SW Xmas "special" was better rated!!! A couple of years ago, i said to one of my friends, "I'll give a 100 bucks if you watch the SW Xmas special from start to finish without stopping!" and he couldn't do it!! So im pretty sure i could offer him 1000 bucks to watch the Acolyte and he wouldn't do it.... i guess thats why were still friends after all those years!
I stopped watching SW TV shows after they fired Gina Carano for putting “beep/bop/boop” in her Twitter bio and having her own opinion. I’ve held onto my refusal to sub to any Disney property after they purchased LucasFilm and Marvel. I’ve watched the movies, but I highly doubt I’ll watch another one. I’m pretty sure that I’m done with SW and Marvel at this point. That is until they’re sold to a more responsible owner or until they boot Kathleen Kennedy and replace her with someone who’s more level-headed and respects the franchise as well as the fans. I was five in 1977, and SW was the first movie I saw in a theater, so it holds a very special place in my heart. Furthermore, there was no better meme than the one labeled, “when men write strong female characters vs when women write strong female characters”, which showed Ripley from Aliens holding Newt and a pulse rifle contrasted by She-Hulk twerking with Meg The Stallion. The difference is when James Cameron writes a strong female character, they’re just a strong character, regardless of their sex, or they become a strong character through their arc, like Sarah Connor from Terminator. These modern feminist writers seem to be stuck in an ideology loop and have forgotten one of the major rules of screenwriting, don’t use forced exposition, which is also known as, “show, don’t tell”. In other words, show the audience that she’s a strong lead, don’t have the character tell the audience that she’s a strong female character. This type of exposition is known as pandering. It’s essentially saying, “Hey! Look at me! I’m one of you and I’m on your side, so please like me.” Edit: FYI, in screenwriting circles (at least, this is how it was perceived a couple of decades ago), using forced exposition was seen as poor writing. A couple of decades ago, these scripts would’ve ended up in a trash bin.
Wow! Preach girl! And you nailed it!! Yeah they seem to forget Princess Leia, & Mon Mothma in the original series as LEADERS in the rebellion- hint they were not men - or Lesbian - and I wonder if Lando was considered a white male to them? You nailed it perfectly and now you have a new fan too! ❤️
Ironic that Disneys best film is arguably Rogue one...starring a strong female character & a diverse cast. I fuckin love it, because it was well written, acted & directed
Ive been saying that for the last 4 weeks. I really love Rogue One like I love Empire. Thats a huge compliment. But it was obviously written and directed by people who GET SW. John Knoll whos been with Lucas for, what 30 years, had the story idea.
The strong female character had the audacity to be straight! Baad Dodo, baad! She also was white -> WHAAT? Cancel Rogue One! And C3Po is not a Protocol Droid but a Gay Ma... aaaaw!
Did that young actress just say "Because nerds are gay!" as an insult - with the lesbian creator sitting right beside her agreeing? This gets more and more hypocritically weird as it goes along.
@@fizzywhizzbanger5610 Are you sure she's trying to tell people they aren't real nerds? - Isn't she trying to say that nerds love Star Wars, nerds are gay, and therefore nerds will love a gay Star Wars show?

Time to remove those talentless DEI hacks from most of the companies. They ruin everything. Start hiring people with intelligence, experience, talent and skills.
They hide behind race, sexuality & gender instead of taking accountability like an adult. I’ve been done w Disney since Obi-Wan came out. I won’t watch another thing they make unless clips I see garner back to real Star Wars. All we want is good writing for this universe we all fell in love with, and that helped us grow, to be treated with respect and have attention to detail. This is just pathetic.
It’s interesting that these shills seem to have forgotten that the geeks and nerds who have always loved sci-fi and fantasy have always been the “marginalised group.” I’m not going to cry about the bullying or whatever: fact is that everybody was welcome if you were a fellow fan. Regardless of colour, creed, sexuality and all of those marginal characteristics that don’t matter. We knew that what mattered is that you treated others, as you yourself wanted to be treated. But if anything, we weren’t the cool kids. Example: DnD used to be called “the devil’s game.” Literally. … Now, being “nerdy” is cool. Folks are putting on fake glasses and calling themselves ‘fans.’ Of course it doesn’t help that we dumped our allowances into merchandise back in the day: people saw that pile of money and became greedy. My guess is that the folks who bullied us in the past, think they can bully us into submission and take our lunch money. Too bad we’re too smart for that, though.
I just wanted to say that I adore your style and aesthetic. You're a fetching young lady of course, but more importantly, your style is flawless.The black dress that accentuates without "zooming in, tasteful jewelry, hair/nails/makeup looking like you have a dedicated stylist. I could go on. And of course you have great scripts and deliver them with passion. I believe you mean every word. If that's simping then oh well. I'll simp for classic beauty & just plain class any day.
This reminds me of the scene in Defending Your Life where the "smart" people eat crap-flavored food, but say that it tastes much better to them because they're more "evolved", and chuckle at the poor plebs who don't want to eat crap.
They keep trying to make the argument that the fans hate women, gays and blacks when all weve been saying that we hate the way the writers are gutting the stories we grew up with. I've read some of the books that came out depicting Qui-gon and Obi-wans adventures when Obi Wan was a padawan, watched all the movies except the new ones, and had imagined myself as a Grey Jedi Knight growing up. This is a travesty, a direct murder of some of my childhood joys by someone who seems to have failed theater class and dropped out of writing courses while claiming the professors were in the wrong. There has to be more consequences than Disney just losing money, just like a person gets fired for doing a bad job and blacklisted, so should SOME bad writers. Especially when they write to use the material to promote their own spin offs instead of the stories they were paid to write ( The Witcher comes to mind)
If Disney was an ice-cream company, they'd be in the situation of marketing their new 'Dog Poop Ice Cream: "Looks like real Ice Cream, tastes like Dog Poop!"' and then complaining that there must be something wrong with people who love ice-cream, but don't want to buy their product. The number one goal of any media company must be to produce product that attracts and keeps an audience. Fail at this, and the market will destroy your business.
I'm told this show isn't for me but yet I'm still a bigot for not watching something that's not for me.

Does anyone ever think of this? 👀
Is it just me or has anyone noticed the toxic feminist man hating female misogynist racist, sexist, & bigotry from Kathleen Kennedy, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, Leslye Headland, Amandla Stenberg, Brie Larson, Rachel Zeglar, and Tatiana Maslany? All the things they are accusing men of doing they are totally doing themselves but claiming it's the men.. I just find it funny they are all projecting their toxic behavior on men when they are the ones guilty of this behavior themselves.. And before you go screaming bigotry. These shows have "NOTHING" to do with women or your skin color. I just have the boldness to say what every other Lucas fan is thinking. It has to do with trashy story writing and acting, but as usual the feminists will and already scream "Fans" are racist, sexist, misogynists, bigots. Again NOTHING to do with your skin color or being a woman. Their writing and story has nothing to do with Star Wars. It is agenda driven trash. Well Lesley Headland & Kathleen Kennedy, and your Director team need to look in the mirror because that is exactly what THEY are promoting. Fans are not blind. So no matter what they try to say.. Guys don't want to see it. Women also don't want to see it either. Which means Feminists will blame men for not seeing it..They are insulting the LBGTQ people and just making people hate us more with their DEI . I am gay and sick of the Disney racist DEI .
They talk a lot about diversity, but I see zero neurodiversity.
Common sense is on life support
👌
That implies neurons actually exist in the making of this show 😂
There are plenty of r€t@rds among the creators of the show so you're wrong
I also don't see shows catered for the racist bigots either on Disney Plus. Not very "diverse" is it? Lol.
We're racist? last time I checked, we didn't shrink jon boyega's picture or cover up Chadwick boseman's face on Chinese posters. Or hire black actors and actress's to use as a shield against legit criticisms. And we didn't name an Asian character Seoul, as in Seoul Korea.
Wokes are the first racists, and it’s oppressive because they try to hide it behind progressivism !!!!
Gaslighting FAIL. They can't shame us. But, we can continue to mock them. It's working
Always remember anyone who gaslights is insanely fragile and sensitive when it happens to them
Rich Hollywood elites living in gated communities dont know how to make a half decent film.
Leslie hedlund looks like Quentin Tarantino in drag!😂😂😂😂
That is so foul but I kinda see it 😂
What is it with Disney and the hiring squashed, round faced hacks like Rian Johnson and Leslie?
Facts.
Nah she looks like drew Carey
@@MasonPhoenix-c4b A Tarantino/Drew Carey hybrid? Minus the talent and creativity .Real scary!🤮🤬🥺
Companies need to start to understand again that insulting your customers is a big mistake. We need to make them understand that with out us they don't get paid.
I'm a bigot, I'm a racist... anyone pulling that card are describing themselves.
EXACTLY!
So true ! So desperately true !!!
In psychology it's called projection. There projecting their foolishness everywhere.
Maybe they wish to imply you like race cars 😂
Ho! You forgot Nazi. The 3 things they just HAVE to call you according to their WOKE manual
its nice to see you keeping it authentic and not selling out to the corporate overlords shaming the star wars fanbase for having enough of this low quality, downright embarrassing stuff they've been putting out. thanks for speaking out in the way you have. star wars needs people like you.
Everyone needs to cancel their Disney plus asap! This company has resorted to shaming their fans!
I keep it active, at Black Friday prices, as a counterbalance to all that radical right wing shit I usually watch. When they come to get me, I can always claim I'm gay.
Speaking of the CW .If u really wanna be horrified watch the last season of Riverdale 🫣
@@blackbruno50 you're playing 4d chess. lol
Is Starwars the only thing on disney plus people watch? Personally I don't have a problem with the show but all I see is people canceling a subscription off of one show like there aren't hundreds of other movies or shows to watch on there
@@kevinbutler2632yea there are other stuff to watch on it, but I think people just want to make a statement
Right now The Acolyte's only fans are the empty chair/sofa/beanbag sitting in front of the turned off computer/television/tablet.
I wasn't going to watch it. But after the actress who has one facial expression called me racist it really convinced me to watch it and like it. Just like the previous 74 times someone at Disney called me racist for not liking their products.
Which actress was thst
@@Harry64278 Amanda whatever
It was some time during this same same sort of debate around the Wheel of Time that I realized people have no taste. They don't know what we mean when we say the show is simply bad. "What do you mean it's bad?" they say. "It's progressive. It has a lesbian couple." That's all they understand.
"The Acolyte, because when women do it, they do it better!" ~Kathleen Kennedy
KK has her coven. It is so powerful that it can't be cancelled. It grows like a fungus every day with HER Acolytes Les-bian Head-Case who was Harvey Weinsteins personal assistant and not verified eneabler
They are trying to protect their financial loss in Disney by blaming fans not product.
They are such liars and cowards !
Adolf also blamed the Germans that they lost the War! They are Adolf now!
Disney let me know that im a racisist mysogynist, so out of respect for them ive deleted my Disney+ and leave it for the .02% of America that they are trying to please.
Sounds like 0.2% of the 0.2% target audience actually watching The Acolyte. Their target audience is too busy posting SJW Tik Tok videos.
I’m all for diversity but I don’t want it rammed down my throat at the expense of incompetent story writing. Disney are deliberately trying to divide the fan base to distract from the mess they’ve created in Star Wars
When something was a movie franchise and becomes a vehicle for identity politics, manipualtion and propaganda.
Jeremy Jahns said it best “this is Star Wars made by CW”…
LMAO. He’s great.
Strip away the Star Wars skin and this is a low-quality CW show that gets canceled after 1 season if not pulled by the middle of the episode.
That's an insult...to the CW!
@@snarkyjayjust because I don't like The Acolyte doesn't mean that I'm a racist, bigot, or homophobe, for that matter. It's a free country, we are allowed to agree and disagree on things, what law does there say that I gotta like this catastrophe of a show. None. The writing and character development is awful. This director needs to stop blaming the viewers because we are not the problem, we are the ones paying to watch various television series with decent storytelling and furthermore, something to be entertained, not to be consistently bored throughout. Get over yourself and look inward, Acolyte director. Maybe if the show were better written and actually had character development, then maybe, people would actually care enough to watch it!
The Goat~!
Did anyone notice in that episode of Mando when Starbuck, I mean Bo Katan crashed the ship into the other ship was taken from a BSG scene she (Sackhoff) did back in the day? There was so much female love in that episode. I loved all four of those ladies and wanted more of them.
Amandla Stenberg's "rap video" she released recently to pwn the haters is probably gonna embarrass the show more than it already has
LMFAO I saw that. So embarrassing.
Right?! I don’t know in what realm of imagination that insulting potential viewers with a vulgar rap video is considered a viable business plan.
That video was the true embodiment of cringe and only solidifies what the critics say about the show.
She released a "rap" video owning the haters? XD
You can't embarrass people with no sense of shame...
sexism (countable and uncountable, plural sexisms)
1. The belief that people of one sex or gender are inherently superior to others.
The notion that either gender is superior is sexism.
2. Discrimination or different treatment based on sex or gender. [
Yet, the acolyte cannot possibly be bad, because it was produced, written by, directed, stars, and promotes women!
God! I am so bloody sick of misandry!
Andor managed to imput everything Acoltye was trying to do and it did amazing bc they focused on the story and dialogue and not agendas.
Andor was incredible!!
agreed,I’m watching Andor for the first time and I’m really enjoying it,SW content doesn’t always have to involve the Jedi or Sith to capture an audience,The Mouse should take heed of this fact and adjust their present approach to the IP 🤔
Destroying fans is like trying to destroy the internet.
Honestly, it's pathetic how Disney and the media cannot accept that poor acting, writing, and production of movies or TV programs simply won't be supported by the majority of the public.
Conversely, great acting and writing will draw people based on word of mouth and honest reviews. How many times must this be proven?
Sadly, Disney is so big that there are no long-term consequences for making trash, and they can proudly check all the right boxes in woke signaling.
they never had to accept it, and have the backing of the conglomerates who are pushing this social engineering on a global scale...DlSNEY is just part of the team.
Depends on how much profit the shareholders want. Heads will roll when quotas will be missed.
@@Ragnar452And that can't come soon enough.
Truly it is that simple.
@@Ragnar452 no heads will roll, they are all "on board" with the program.
5 seconds of episode one with music gives me more goosebumps than
anything else nowadays. its really hard to create something new nowadays,
but its crazy with what people are willing to be put of.
No matter what they say... You can't hide bad writing.
The best outcome for the show is to cut to a scene of Yoda waking up from a fever dream of a nightmare to let us know none of the events of The Acolyte actually took place.
I've made this argument for years during these woke times and it's never been more appropriate than here: it's none other than the boy who cried wolf. Wait sorry that was inappropriate, what I meant was it's none other than the non-binary adolescent speaking their truth against toxic, canine patriarchy. In any event, when individuals continually play the victim in situations where they are not, it cheapens experiences of those people who are actually victims. So much so that we no longer care when something happens because it's lost its importance.
HAHA, well said!
I've said it before and I'll say it again. This beautiful young woman gives me hope for young people and the future!

I just want to send Snarky Jay into the Disney office and have her put these idiots in their place!
And these journalists are paid to support the big companies so they can get continuous work. So their voice holds no weight whatsoever.
And lastly, bashing the fans just pushes them.. those who once paid for the product.. much more further away!
I somehow knew they would do this with the criticism. But truth is, this show didn’t need to be created at all.
What show “needs” to be created?
If wasn't created. Kathleen kennedy and Leslie headland wouldn't be able to Rob Disney of 180 million dollars an episode.
"PUT A CHICK IN IT AND MAKE HER LAME AND GAY!!!" 😂
I think the Forbes writer was “projecting” onto the audience 😂
This is like shooting someone and still expecting them to like you 💀
When the Lead Writer is taking to twitter **IMMEDIATELY** after the episode to defend and explain it..., that should tell you everything you need to know

The Acolyte looks like a fan film shot in Disneyland.
Disney, you don't want me to watch your content?
Ok, I won't.
Diseny HATES Star Wars and Star Wars fans.
One thing I don't get about Star Wars fans is that they complain so much about "The Acolyte," yet they watch it every single week and pay for the Disney subscription every single month. As long as Disney is still making their money, they don't care about your opinion.
These Disney fools are so clueless, they'll probably be surprised when calling their audience bigots doesn't raise their approval rating.
They are so stupid, it's just incredible !
Well said! You’re a natural motivational speaker! By the end of the video you had me pumped! Star Wars has been such a big part of my life growing up. I could probably recite the first trilogy and a fair bit of the second trilogy but I cannot bring myself to watch the Acolyte.
Just stop Kathleen Kennedy PLEASE!!!
Jay, you keep doing you. You are super talented with brains & beauty. Haters are gonna hate anyone who is successful.
I actually LOL when you showed that the SW Xmas "special" was better rated!!! A couple of years ago, i said to one of my friends, "I'll give a 100 bucks if you watch the SW Xmas special from start to finish without stopping!" and he couldn't do it!! So im pretty sure i could offer him 1000 bucks to watch the Acolyte and he wouldn't do it.... i guess thats why were still friends after all those years!
I stopped watching SW TV shows after they fired Gina Carano for putting “beep/bop/boop” in her Twitter bio and having her own opinion. I’ve held onto my refusal to sub to any Disney property after they purchased LucasFilm and Marvel. I’ve watched the movies, but I highly doubt I’ll watch another one. I’m pretty sure that I’m done with SW and Marvel at this point. That is until they’re sold to a more responsible owner or until they boot Kathleen Kennedy and replace her with someone who’s more level-headed and respects the franchise as well as the fans. I was five in 1977, and SW was the first movie I saw in a theater, so it holds a very special place in my heart.
Furthermore, there was no better meme than the one labeled, “when men write strong female characters vs when women write strong female characters”, which showed Ripley from Aliens holding Newt and a pulse rifle contrasted by She-Hulk twerking with Meg The Stallion. The difference is when James Cameron writes a strong female character, they’re just a strong character, regardless of their sex, or they become a strong character through their arc, like Sarah Connor from Terminator. These modern feminist writers seem to be stuck in an ideology loop and have forgotten one of the major rules of screenwriting, don’t use forced exposition, which is also known as, “show, don’t tell”. In other words, show the audience that she’s a strong lead, don’t have the character tell the audience that she’s a strong female character. This type of exposition is known as pandering. It’s essentially saying, “Hey! Look at me! I’m one of you and I’m on your side, so please like me.”
Edit: FYI, in screenwriting circles (at least, this is how it was perceived a couple of decades ago), using forced exposition was seen as poor writing. A couple of decades ago, these scripts would’ve ended up in a trash bin.
This article is an embarrassing attempt at reverse psychology.
Wow! Preach girl! And you nailed it!! Yeah they seem to forget Princess Leia, & Mon Mothma in the original series as LEADERS in the rebellion- hint they were not men - or Lesbian - and I wonder if Lando was considered a white male to them? You nailed it perfectly and now you have a new fan too! ❤️
Ironic that Disneys best film is arguably Rogue one...starring a strong female character & a diverse cast. I fuckin love it, because it was well written, acted & directed
Ive been saying that for the last 4 weeks. I really love Rogue One like I love Empire. Thats a huge compliment. But it was obviously written and directed by people who GET SW. John Knoll whos been with Lucas for, what 30 years, had the story idea.
The strong female character had the audacity to be straight! Baad Dodo, baad! She also was white -> WHAAT? Cancel Rogue One! And C3Po is not a Protocol Droid but a Gay Ma... aaaaw!
Rogue One is the third best Star Wars movie!
@@WanderfalkeAT I am sorry to offend you and your bad SW knowledge - But he IS a protocol droid. (And it's spelt C-3PO) 😁
It's become so diverse that nobody can relate to ANY of the characters or situations.
The force is strong with this one!
Disney needs to learn that we don't owe them our time and eyeballs. I hope they Willow it.
If Disney bought a successful steak place they would change it to a vegan menu then get mad at the meat eaters for no longer eating there.
Bingo
"Dialogue is Ass!" I laughed so hard I almost choked on my burrito. It's been a long time since I've heard that phrasing. Thumbs up!
Did that young actress just say "Because nerds are gay!" as an insult - with the lesbian creator sitting right beside her agreeing? This gets more and more hypocritically weird as it goes along.
I don't think she meant it as an insult, I think she honestly believes ALL nerds are gay. Thus, if you aren't gay, you aren't a real nerd.
@@fizzywhizzbanger5610 Are you sure she's trying to tell people they aren't real nerds? - Isn't she trying to say that nerds love Star Wars, nerds are gay, and therefore nerds will love a gay Star Wars show?
@@Wezwolf That's exactly what she's trying to say, and by that logic, if you don't love this tripe, you can't possibly be a "real" nerd
I guess being told "you aren't a real nerd" might hurt someone's feelings nowadays....
Forbes and its pandering for ESG score for Blackrock and Vanguard investments is embarrassing.

@4:54 You sum up exactly how I feel about anything with the name Disney on it.
I gotchu.
I wish someone could explain how a public corporation that can't even break even on anything for years still hasn't course corrected. Did the stakeholders forget they have Disney in their portfolio? It doesn't compute.
she's not wrong. keep it real snarky!
I just subscribed, not because of the content (it is good content!), but because of your facial expressions. You somehow add another layer to conversation just by looking at the camera. Color me intrigued.
Time to remove those talentless DEI hacks from most of the companies. They ruin everything. Start hiring people with intelligence, experience, talent and skills.
They hide behind race, sexuality & gender instead of taking accountability like an adult. I’ve been done w Disney since Obi-Wan came out. I won’t watch another thing they make unless clips I see garner back to real Star Wars. All we want is good writing for this universe we all fell in love with, and that helped us grow, to be treated with respect and have attention to detail. This is just pathetic.
It’s interesting that these shills seem to have forgotten that the geeks and nerds who have always loved sci-fi and fantasy have always been the “marginalised group.” I’m not going to cry about the bullying or whatever: fact is that everybody was welcome if you were a fellow fan. Regardless of colour, creed, sexuality and all of those marginal characteristics that don’t matter. We knew that what mattered is that you treated others, as you yourself wanted to be treated. But if anything, we weren’t the cool kids. Example: DnD used to be called “the devil’s game.” Literally.
…
Now, being “nerdy” is cool. Folks are putting on fake glasses and calling themselves ‘fans.’ Of course it doesn’t help that we dumped our allowances into merchandise back in the day: people saw that pile of money and became greedy. My guess is that the folks who bullied us in the past, think they can bully us into submission and take our lunch money. Too bad we’re too smart for that, though.
I'm not going to lie, when I read that article, I threw up a little in my mouth.
As always, you nailed it with your review, keep it up
The Last Jedi and Endgame were so aptly named. Movies where my SW and MCU fandom ended
Yep MCU is actually dead. Nobody even talks about it anymore.
At least endgame ended on a good note unlike TLJ
I canceled my Disney+ a while ago and every time I think about getting it back... This garbage comes along!
Can we just all mutually agree that the Acolyte isn't canon?
Its def not to me.
I second this motion….all in favour? 🤚
I'm sorry to offend anyone, but I refuse to believe that Darth Vader Built C3PO.
Nothing Disney star wars is
@@Wezwolf I am sorry to offend you and your bad SW knowledge - But he didn't, Anakin did!
Very well presented. But I doubt Disney will take it onboard. They are not capable of taking constructive criticism.
I just wanted to say that I adore your style and aesthetic. You're a fetching young lady of course, but more importantly, your style is flawless.The black dress that accentuates without "zooming in, tasteful jewelry, hair/nails/makeup looking like you have a dedicated stylist. I could go on.
And of course you have great scripts and deliver them with passion. I believe you mean every word.
If that's simping then oh well. I'll simp for classic beauty & just plain class any day.
Isn’t black Rock and Vanguard shareholders in Forbes as well as Disney 🤔😂🤦♂️
Disney appears to have entirely lost its mind. If I were an investor or associated business I'd be running a mile. .
This reminds me of the scene in Defending Your Life where the "smart" people eat crap-flavored food, but say that it tastes much better to them because they're more "evolved", and chuckle at the poor plebs who don't want to eat crap.
Never thought I'd feel sorry for Disney shareholders, you'd excuse them for swan diving out the nearest window at this point.
Damn.. That was a swift kick in the internet ass. Tell em girl!
Snarky, I've yet to see/hear any one explain how the "twins" are unalike for most of their lives, YET, when both are adults, they are identical.

Congrats, we’re HEARING you
'Piece of content' is an apt description for The Acolyte.
They keep trying to make the argument that the fans hate women, gays and blacks when all weve been saying that we hate the way the writers are gutting the stories we grew up with. I've read some of the books that came out depicting Qui-gon and Obi-wans adventures when Obi Wan was a padawan, watched all the movies except the new ones, and had imagined myself as a Grey Jedi Knight growing up. This is a travesty, a direct murder of some of my childhood joys by someone who seems to have failed theater class and dropped out of writing courses while claiming the professors were in the wrong. There has to be more consequences than Disney just losing money, just like a person gets fired for doing a bad job and blacklisted, so should SOME bad writers. Especially when they write to use the material to promote their own spin offs instead of the stories they were paid to write ( The Witcher comes to mind)
If Disney was an ice-cream company, they'd be in the situation of marketing their new 'Dog Poop Ice Cream: "Looks like real Ice Cream, tastes like Dog Poop!"' and then complaining that there must be something wrong with people who love ice-cream, but don't want to buy their product.
The number one goal of any media company must be to produce product that attracts and keeps an audience. Fail at this, and the market will destroy your business.
