    • @kolicgames4750
      @kolicgames4750 3 місяці тому

      No, because Weinstein was a sacrifice to protect the current and even more despicable regimes. Do you honestly believe that Hollywood would restrict itself to above age, consensual favor exchanges when they have access to enough money to buy heaps of drugs and pay criminals? That would require them to have morals and maybe even a belief in a higher power... other than themselves.
      I mean, seriously, they just recently stopped enforcing loitering laws in Los Angeles, which were designed to curb prostitution. So suddenly the streets are flooded with prostitutes. I'd bet a majority of those are people who wanted to make it in Hollywood or illegals. I'd bet a significant fraction were forced into it via drug addiction. Maybe not a majority... but I wouldn't be surprised it was the majority either.

      KK would fire her in a hot minute if it meant clutching onto the reins of power with her long bony fingers... And in some respect that's why she hired her in the first place. LH came in with a reputation that meant if KK needed a scapegoat, she could use Headland as that scapegoat.
      But as always the question is... Where did the 180m go if it didn't go into the production of the series? Back in the day people took 6 months to make 24 episodes with a 6 month break for pre production... then they'd be back at it. KK is giving us a show with a bloated budget, small run time... Where is the quality and quantity? Modern entertainment seems to have taken a downward revision across the board with very few exceptions.

    as the days passed was a World Building Experience.
    and when Sam takes the Ring, and still goes to save Froddo
    gives us a Peak of the Corruption in the Ring when Sam holding a Sword
    shows that he had the Ring, The One Ring tries to Corrupt him in that moment
    he could the Fall into the Darkness like Gollum
    thats why the scene of HE giving his Speech and Carrying Frodo to the Volcano
    became one of my Favorites, Selfless, Sacrifice, Heroism, it had everything

    It's obvious Darth Teeth was using armor/helmet made of cortosis. Cortosis is a SW Universe metal (known to be brittle) that interrupts the operation of lightsabers for a short time. Mae's hair has always been longer. I first noticed this during the second episode.
    Something else SW geeks will notice is a Dark Side user using force healing. Dark Side users cannot use the force to heal without Sith Alchemy. Force healing requires the wielder to be highly compassionate. They also must be empathetic and unselfish. Two traits a Dark Side of the Force user can not achieve. This is a rare ability among the Jedi. Anakin Skywalker was frustrated he was unable to use force healing.
    The whole "mind reading" is silly. Force users quickly learn early how to create a "force shield." Breaking through this shield is nearly impossible unless a force user is extremely powerful.
    It's obvious that the writers of this series (along with Headland) do not have in-depth knowledge or don't care about what is already in canon. In short, this series is completely offensive to the Star Wars Universe and its fans.

After this we need to come together and show whoever is coming into our fandom that they won't succeed tearing our societies apart at the cultural level. Cos thats really whats going on here.. The people sending death threats and screaming about nonsense. For this to happen Kathleen Kennedy HAS TO GO. She had a fair shot and has driven the franchise into the ground. Retire her quietly so she doesn't lose face because her Rey film will be a failure. There is obvious money scamming going on under her tenure and that will come out if she stays any longer.

      I remember prior to TLJ release in theaters Rian Johnson saying his goal is for 50% of the audience to love his movies, and for 50% to hate his movies. That’s fine if making an original indy movie, but horrible if making a sequel to a widely popular series like Star Wars you want to be successful and have a wide appeal and very large audience, AND sell merchandise, then have subsequent sequels. So what you’re talking about was done knowingly. Or does KK truly have zero business sense ? Like when she declared the force is female. Nothing like excluding 50% of the human population.

    @joykan6876 3 місяці тому

    I'm not watching The Acolyte, but based on the short clippings I saw:
    If Qimir’s gauntlet is made of Cortosis Ore, they are misusing it. In the old EU, they wisely limited its usefulness, otherwise everyone would be using it to stop lightsabers. With enough of an impact it temporarily short-circuits lightsabers; however, Cortosis itself was brittle.
    The short lightsaber Qimir used to kill Jeckie (stabbed 3x) could be a Shoto. In the old EU, Luke used a Shoto, in tandem with his lightsaber, to defeat Lumiya and her lightwhip. Lumiya could also manipulate people in their dreams, get into their heads.
    “Smylo Ren” mentioned something about dreams in an earlier episode. Yord told Osha that he (supposedly referring to Smylo Ren) gets in your head and stays there; Osha responded that her Mother (Koril? Aniseya?) did that too. It was mentioned for a reason--perhaps that Mother will end up being the Sith Master. Perhaps someone has been in Osha’s head (blackouts), and in Mae’s head (maybe SHE was the one being brainwashed since she was young).
    Perhaps Master Vernestra Rwo will end up being the Sith Master. In the trailer, she wields the lightwhip, which in the EU wasn’t a Jedi weapon. However, they could just be setting up Qimir conveniently having the Shoto (in tandem with his lightsaber) to battle Vernestra. Just like Luke.
    Osha stopped Sol from killing Qimir in his anger and hate (after Jeckie and Yord were killed), which would have caused him to fall to the dark side.
    Everything in this show is so CONTRIVED to get the ridiculous outcomes they want in the easiest and quickest ways possible, without proper development/treatment-just as was done in the ST, with “Jake” Skywalker. It’s all being reduced to nothing but misdirections, spectacle, and agenda.

    This reminds of a third-grade school production w/made-at-home costumes based on 2nd-hand comic books,

    So, please correct me if I'm wrong. The guy that made the poison, that was was an accessory to murder for killing a master Jedi, the guy that was LET GO by the Jedi. Is a Sith? You're fricking kidding me!

    Not to say they did anything clever in this show, but I think I understand what happened at the end with Discount Ezra Miller/Smilo Ren/Darth Gimpus and Osha. Osha passed his test. She "killed" him without using a weapon-she used a flashlight. That explains why he was trying to kill her earlier but wants her as his Acolyte at the end. It's certainly better than him freeing Mae before trying to kill her. Basically, when writing this show, there were key points they wanted to hit, but they don't care how stupid their execution is or how contrived the connections are.

    In episode 5 they killed off the prettiest female in the show (granted she was a cheetah girl). As an American male, I typically will not watch anything unless there is an attractive female in it......the actress who played Jecki was the best cast member on the entire show....she did a great job being cute yet viscious, being a great follower yet highly intelligent, and her fight scene was one of the best I've ever seen from a girl her age and her size....all of her strikes were very convincing and powerful....I'll probably never know this actress's name, but I truly believe that she was the silver lining in this entire series....

      I mean, at least you know there was legit vengeance in there. We never understood that until after we heard the corny line "attack me with all your might" or whatever it was. At least let us know why. "The Jedi murdered my family and left my home world in ruins, vengeance is what I seek and I've found you, prepare to die" or similar would've went a long way. I mean, sure, we all would've laughed it off but knew she was serious. Also a damn light saber or Beskar sword would've been cool but we get damn throwing knives.

    31:00 To be fair, thrusting (if a path is available) is faster than swinging. However, lightsabers are massless, so swinging one would be done with the wrist instead of arm. Fighting with lightsabers would look very different than sword fighting.

    The bad guys gauntlet and helmet are made of cortosis, a metal that makes lightsabers malfunction. It’s from legends. The orange stuff is just dirt. Kinda like the red sand from the door buster scene in the sequels. Looks like spice from dune. The second lightsaber is calnakas which is pulled out when her lightsaber was deactivated by the gauntlet, and then cut in half shortly after. Leaving her with her blade only.

    Focusing on the padawan fight scene is misplaced IMO because the context is so stupid. There is no way in hell a teenage padawan still in lightsaber training is going to be able to stand against a Sith in any capacity, even Darth Twinkus the Lame. She should have died within 1 to 2 strokes. Before anyone goes on and on about how Obi-Wan fought Darth Maul as a padawan, Obi-Wan was one step away from becoming a full fledged Jedi Knight. Qui-Gon even said in The Phantom Menace that Obi-Wan was ready for the trials long before implying that he was holding Obi-Wan back. HE was capable to fight Darth Maul. The Acolyte has moronic writing and trash directing like a group of hacks writing fan fiction thinking it should be canon.

    If the helm turns out to be cortosis I am going to be very confused.

How am I supposed to know what is going on in this universe if there are no rules?

    The armor was behaving exactly like cortosis. Shorts out lightsabers and neutralizes energy weapons, while being physically fragile and brittle and susceptible to kinetic attacks.
