Unfortunately I think it’s time for a lot of us fans to accept that the Star Wars that we fell in love with doesn’t exist anymore, and hasn’t for quite some time.
I think you are right. I tried to excuse the previous SW tv shows (except for Andor and Mando s1-2) but you know what? They were mostly rubbish after all. But no more excuses, this shit is just atrocious. They killed my beloved franchise, fuck them.😔
@@galaktikuszselatin andor was terrible... I could see if you said the Ahsoka series.. which is to me still the best Star Wars, Disney put out on streaming service.. sure it wasn't perfect, but it was far better than anything else a solid 9 out of 10 , the Mandalorian without baby Yoda Grogu whatever you wanna call him was just a fad.. episodes werent even that good.. but season two was well worth watching some of the best Star Wars todate but yeah.. my shows best to worst Ahsoka series ,The Mandalorian, the book of Boba, Andor series , the Kenobi series, and this garbage so far anyway..
@@Pinkielover I liked the parts with Anakin in Ahsoka but the writing was all over the place and the dialogues were lame. I was excusing it for a while but no more. I liked the Rebels but the Ashoka series didn't click with me. Andor was not flawless but it had a great storyline and memorable speeches. It was different and unique. But to be honest I am not looking forward to watch it anymore. I appreciate your take though.
@@aaroncody8905 no he isn’t, but there is a majority from the channel that can’t even create a cohesive argument without ripping from his lingo. Literally word by word quotes from him in the comment section. Zero brain activity up there.
There’s a theory that the Mae was being controlled by someone using the dark side when she trapped Osha and tried to kill her, especially when there’s definitely more we’re missing and we’re most likely gonna get another episode where it shows Mae or someone else’s point of view from this episode
Lol. Like any of Lucas’s dialogue was any better.😂 “I hate sand.” you are asking me to be rational. That is something I know I cannot do. Believe me, I wish that I could just wish away my feelings, but I can't. What 20-something guy in love really talks like this?😂
@BizznessBox At least George Lucas acknowledged Jar Jar was a mistake and limited him in Episodes 2 & 3. Meanwhile, Kathleen Kennedy and the geniuses at Disney are in complete denial, think that they're killing it with all the new Star Wars bulls**t and pretty much saying F YOU to all the fans and critics.
All DIZNEE Star Wars names had one draft. Each character not only of SW but all fiction has names gone through. Look at the annotated version of The Hobbit. It has the beginning of what was going to become Lord of the Rings. But if people look into what Tolkien had to say about Disney and even Herbert who created DUNE his criticism was because he noticed the complete loss of the back story work. For Disney the way he wrote Dwarves. No DIZNEE crap isn't close to any of those things.
When they did that shit , I immediately knew fans would flip. Which shows the show runner is not a fan to think that shit would fly without no one saying anything
Leslye is doing this 💩 on purpose she don’t care the fans want she will deliver disappointment remember she said in a interview “if you don’t like The Acolyte that is fine” straight BS how they are pissing on SW…
I thought Rian Johnson fucked up Star Wars the most….. till I saw this show … listen I grew up on 4,5,6…. I’m in my 50’s … the only thing since then to even hold a candle to the original trilogy was Rogue One…
Honestly I love your passion for SW and your one of the nicest Fans out there, I can see in this review the pain in your eyes, I feel the same and honestly don't know what to say on it.
This show had so much promise, two twins, one good, one evil, they had all the source material and legends material they could dream of, thanks lez for your therapy session
@@fe6uary I agree with tomstockman412's response to you. Don't try to even joke that "The Last Jedi" isn't the franchise killer that it is. Star Wars died with "The Last Jedi." Everything else bad is just beating a long dead horse.
You are 100x better than all the other reactors out there like kyle katarn because you are authentic and arent afraid to criticize the show. Its refreshing to see an honest reactor
Anakin was too old to be trained as a Jedi but here they do a shitload of stuff to get those twins which are probably the same age if not abit older...
I mean in legends Mace Windu appoints Rham Kota to be his Padawan when Rham was 18, mind you thats non-canon now, however I have always found that some of the funniest shit in Star Wars considering how pissed Windu is at Anakin joining at like 11.
That might be a thing, but the kids were not only too old, but too attached. It's unlikely the jedi were only aware of the dangers of older children so late being the jedi are thousands of years old.
That’s seriously all you have? A badly drawn parallel and a false equivalence? Anakin had a freakishly high midichlorian count and lived a life of labor and slavery, which made him dangerous in the Council’s eyes. Plus that was a COUNCIL decision. None of these Jedi are councilors. Their job is to identify potential candidates; nothing more. If the Council deemed them unfit, they would not be chosen for training.
You build your channel around something you love only to be betrayed by it. All the other content creators that do reactions sold out, but .massive respect to you my friend for still having and sharing your own opinion.

Hi I think your approach to this reaction video review is so chill. You're the most forgiving of all the reviews I've seen. I hope they turn star wars around one day but I've decided to stop watching it's a shame, it could be so good but they're so focussed on the messaging that they can't make good shows anymore. It's sad.
I appreciate the honesty. Im sad to say I too am scratching my head. Some of my favorite reactors are just going ape over this and loving it. But i just cant get past how alien this feels to anything I love about Star Wars. I cant help but feel lost. There is nothing for me to hold on to, and the more I try the less I find appealing. We are really in the woods, and far from home.
Thank you for your honest reviews, Skyman! You are one of the few reactors who doesn’t just gloss over the horrible writing and gush with love over the show just because it has the Star Wars name attached to it. Keep up the authenticity, and may the original force be with you!

Remember the feeling we all had seeing Luke Skywalker in Mando 2? Even after witnessing the way he was treated in the Sequels, when he saved Grogu, we all felt it. Sadly, we will never feel that feeling again with Disney Star Wars. I hate that.
Hey Skyman , I made my profile pic the best thing from the Acolyte...I highly been enjoying your reactions and Sam Nerds because you both strike me as super star wars fans, so it's cool to see a super fan react
@@jurassicjam2156 He's always been very pro political messaging and now is allowing free reign to these people who are using Star Wars as a platform to create whatever they actually wanted to create knowing an original production would have no audience or glamour.
What a refreshing change to have a real reaction. I feel that most reactors are being paid or incentivised to make out that this is the best Star Wars ever. When in reality it's probably the worst.
Everyone involved with The Acolyte. Have they even watched Andor, most of the Mandolorian Rogue One? The reason I mention those productions is that they were produced under the Disney banner. So Disney can produce Star Wars productions which are pretty good.
Disney are just very inconsistent in how they layout their shows, and who they implement into them to direct or write. You go from the best written Andor by Tony Gilroy to a cringefest pile of manure by a director who’s done nothing but some dumb romcoms. I seriously don’t know how some of these people get hired.
It is not you, skyman. What Disney is giving Star Wars fans is not Star Wars. We all should give up on expecting Disney to make a decent star wars movie or programme. We still have starwars, this franchise still lives on with the 6 movies we know and love. You can't get better than that anyway. The franchise lives in us the fans, not Disney. Disney has moved so far away from the original idea it has become something else, and that something is not Star Wars. That's why it doesn't have that same feel it had years ago. We fans know what star wars is. We don't need to be told what star wars is.
@@pjthrand2173 the people at Disney are acting like a bunch of little girls that have got hold of a boys toy and don't know how to play with it. So they make it up as they go along. They say it's to bring the story to a modern audience. Yet the story is set in another galaxy a long time ago, not today, with today's politics.
An excerpt in the trailer shows that the witches all have black eyes. This means a witch has taken control of everyone and probably some of the Jedi like Kelnacca and Torbin who fight each other in the trailer. In the ship at the end you can see Torbin's bloody scar on his face, which is fresh. Greetings from Germany😊
Gave up after 15 mins, absolutely awful. Your review was spot on, as usual. The people making this are pushing their own agenda, they have no interest in Star Wars whatsoever or the real fans, they mean nothing to them.
ASMR Idea: *gonna Suck some random Tiits* *'n' Eat some random aaaAAAAA* # AAASS! kinda like this but not exactly ua-cam.com/video/iUmaTvtXn5Q/v-deo.htmlsi=aECSUBPFOlUMZ1mF&t=915
But the fact that they see the Force as The Thread is not really the Problem…they just have their own idea of the same thing, and call it a different name. Just like some things are called different in various regions of this planet where we live on.
Prequel trilogy fans have become the bitter haters that the original trilogy fans were about the prequels.. this fanbase has ALWAYS been SUPER TOXIC. Acolyte is actually good so far and the hatred is just mass hysteria because "Dizneee" forgetting that Disney also made Andor and Rogue One. People forget the level of toxicity of the starwars fandom to the extend that OT fans sent mass death threats to the CHILD ACTOR that played young Anakin.. 😂😂
You’re always hype with your star wars reactions. But Your post review is heart breaking, and I agree with you. I was on my phone for most of the episode
It’s as if? They only give jobs to ppl who purposely don’t read the comics, don’t watch the movies, etc. there’s compilation videos full of Disney writers/execs saying just that
I've been watching you for 1+ years and even though I enjoyed the episode. I did like that the first dozen or so comments while not liking it didn't just make really negative comments without telling us why it affected them. I've been watching Stat Wars since New Hope '77 as a teen. While I don't always agree with the inconsistencies of the use of different new characters I try to give the series a chance. The stories like Thrawn and other books released before the prequels were also controversial at the time. I'm watching this from the perspective of people from other planets using the force and feeling policed by the Jedi instead of welcoming them. From what I understand Leslie is doing episodes from different characters perspectives. This Osha version of what happened. The next maybe from Mae or Sol's point of view. Sorry the series was difficult for you and others watch, but seeing 8+ reactors different points of view is interesting to me. Hang in there. May the Force Be with You. Also love your quotes ❤
After watching Ep.03 of The Acolyte I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
Aco-lightly put...This show is heaps of hot trash. I can't watch another second. I'm far more excited for your reaction videos, yet I'm shocked you're still doing them. Let's have movies 1-6 watch parties instead so we can still get our skyman fix🤷♂️
Aah well it was & is part of beautiful episode in Live Act Star Universe 🙂 The Night Sisters have existed since -94 & content in The Acolyte S01E03 is barely different 🙂 DS manipulated the Force to conceive Anakins Mom. S01E03 actions didn't deviate or change a a single thing about Star Wars lore. They literally rode with already existing content 🙂It doesn't take anything away from Anakin's storyline 🙂 Coven Witches (not said all would love same gender) UsEd the Force to make children ✅ Not children being created by the Force as was the case with Anakin 💯% Big difference there 🙂 Restream the scene to see it 🙂 Good times with so far nice S01 of Beautiful The Acolyte when stream at D+ 📺 5.1 Wireless Headphones, "65 Led Telly & dark room always when stream at evening to wind-down 🧘♂ Enjoy S01 o/
I was waiting to see this reaction. We share similar thoughts on most things “Star Wars”, as that was THE first movie I ever saw in a theater when I was a kid. That being said, if a prerequisite to getting hired on as a writer for this show was (and this is true) to never have watched a Star Wars movie, how shocking is it really that they miss the mark entirely? This show had almost a zero percent chance of success before a single camera was turned on. :(
Starman, the twins seem to be what Jedi and Sith might call a Dyad in the Force. Do you recall the image of the First Jedi? It looked at lot like the Chinese image for Yin and Yang, the light and the darkness. This connection between the twins seems similar. The twins are shaping up to be two parts of a whole, one dark and and one light.
What made Star Wars great? George Lucas said Star Wars was movie for 12 year olds. Disney created a sequel trilogy for 12 year olds, but many older fans of the prequel trilogy disliked the sequel. The was the identical reaction to the prequel trilogy. Lucas created a trilogy of films for 12 year olds, while many older fans of the original trilogy disliked it. Disney seems to have recognized this pattern, this conundrum. They have broken from the tried and true formula of making content for 12 year olds, and created some content for the more adult fans. Curiously, the unhappy adult fans see these attempts as breaking canon. But when Disney makes content for 12 year olds, the adult fans see it as repeating what has already been done.
No I think there's nothing wrong with you, the writing is confusing to me too, I don't know who it is made for or what kind of people it is supposed to please, but I feel like this is trying to force some kind of message about female empowerment, diversity or other topics that the universe of Star Wars was never lacking of in the first place, while neglecting everything else, like the story or how mindful it is of the source material, this is very poor and any negative critics will be perceived as though they are only against the conveyed message when in reality, more often than not, they couldn't care less... On the other hand, positive reviews have to be biased and only take into consideration the message, because I really don't see what else there is to find in it and I am open to anyone willing to explain it to me, I mean it
I added this in ChatGPT. “You are with me. I am with you. Always one, but born as two. As above sits the stars and below lies the sea. I give you you, you give me me. make this better by making it sound like JRR Tolkien wrote it” And got the following: “Certainly! Here is your verse in a style reminiscent of J.R.R. Tolkien: --- Together we stand, though born apart, One in essence, yet twain in heart. Above us shine the starlit skies, Below, the ocean’s depths arise. I mirror you, you mirror me, In this dance of destiny.” I now have confidence if I just input the current screenplay, I would get a much better one from an LLM…sad.
Skyman, I am thankful to watch someone who doesn’t care for this show. Most other reactors gobble this dross and ask for more. A few even sit and insult their fans and viewers by calling them racist/homophobic/bigots. Thank you sir.
They said r2d2 is lesbian in the interviews and have said this is the gayest Star Wars ever and that the fans are the issue bro what it immediately turned the fan base against them don't get me wrong it isn't a perfect fan base but failing 3 major films, kenobi destroying cannon, Mando 3 flopping, andor being misunderstood plus bringing back Rey and making bad batch once again destroy cannon it now takes nothing for everyone to be done with Disney Star Wars. Plus it's going to back fire everyone is going yo take their hate out on Igtba cause everyone seems them as responsible for the way everything is now just watch it's going to get nasty. Time to buy the dvd so they can’t change them in the future and call it quits. I’ll always lone Star Wars but this isn’t Star Wars. This is lgtbq wars
This show seems great. Looks to have all the stuff The stars war had. It feels like when Dark Vander destroyed the deafstar, thes guys are bad news bears. Just need the romance injection of Luke and Leia and a touch of celebrity cameos.
Torbin is the smartest character. He drank the poison to get the fuck out of this show.

Remember the feeling we all had seeing Luke Skywalker in Mando 2? Even after witnessing the way he was treated in the Sequels, when he saved Grogu, we all felt it.
Sadly, we will never feel that feeling again with Disney Star Wars. I hate that.
Hey Skyman , I made my profile pic the best thing from the Acolyte...I highly been enjoying your reactions and Sam Nerds because you both strike me as super star wars fans, so it's cool to see a super fan react
Thank you for your honest review and very well put!
Its not starwars, its leslie headspace
I wonder what kind of cereal hes eating?
"You must train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose."
Get Jon Faverau, Dave Filoni, Freddie Prinze Jr and Sam Witwer in a room and don't let the bankers anywhere near it.
Filoni is at fault for most of this tbh.
Filoni is the one greenlighting all this slop and letting it become the new canon
@shahzebnasir4692 how has he gone from the cline wars to this without outside control.
@@jurassicjam2156 He's always been very pro political messaging and now is allowing free reign to these people who are using Star Wars as a platform to create whatever they actually wanted to create knowing an original production would have no audience or glamour.
@@shahzebnasir4692hahahahah star wars was always polítical
What a refreshing change to have a real reaction. I feel that most reactors are being paid or incentivised to make out that this is the best Star Wars ever. When in reality it's probably the worst.
And don't forgot. The Chief Creative Director Dave Filoni blessed this. Yea, a true fraud.
Nice to see a reaction from a star wars fan giving an honest opinion. Most others I’ve see on UA-cam are all toeing the line. 🙏🏻🙉🙈🙊
I had that Anakin poster with the shadow of Darth Vader, so badass, I wish I still had it.
Fred thank you so much for vocalizing exactly what all of us fans are thinking about this poor poor show so far. 🙏
13:03 my dude remembers exactly the correct test in the history of starwars (Anakin's one)
the sad reality is we now expect each new series to let us down 😂
This isn't star wars, it's like a bad fan fiction of it.
Everyone involved with The Acolyte. Have they even watched Andor, most of the Mandolorian Rogue One? The reason I mention those productions is that they were produced under the Disney banner. So Disney can produce Star Wars productions which are pretty good.
Disney are just very inconsistent in how they layout their shows, and who they implement into them to direct or write. You go from the best written Andor by Tony Gilroy to a cringefest pile of manure by a director who’s done nothing but some dumb romcoms. I seriously don’t know how some of these people get hired.
This poor poor man.... the show runners are the ones that hate starwars, not the fans.
Great episode and good view of everything 👍🏻
It is not you, skyman. What Disney is giving Star Wars fans is not Star Wars.
We all should give up on expecting Disney to make a decent star wars movie or programme.
We still have starwars, this franchise still lives on with the 6 movies we know and love. You can't get better than that anyway. The franchise lives in us the fans, not Disney.
Disney has moved so far away from the original idea it has become something else, and that something is not Star Wars. That's why it doesn't have that same feel it had years ago.
We fans know what star wars is. We don't need to be told what star wars is.
I’m calling their product Disney Fantasy Realms because it is not Star Wars. It will never be Star Wars.
@@pjthrand2173 the people at Disney are acting like a bunch of little girls that have got hold of a boys toy and don't know how to play with it. So they make it up as they go along.
They say it's to bring the story to a modern audience. Yet the story is set in another galaxy a long time ago, not today, with today's politics.
I didn't know asgardians did movie reviews! I'm subscribing. lol
An excerpt in the trailer shows that the witches all have black eyes. This means a witch has taken control of everyone and probably some of the Jedi like Kelnacca and Torbin who fight each other in the trailer. In the ship at the end you can see Torbin's bloody scar on his face, which is fresh. Greetings from Germany😊
Gave up after 15 mins, absolutely awful. Your review was spot on, as usual. The people making this are pushing their own agenda, they have no interest in Star Wars whatsoever or the real fans, they mean nothing to them.
ASMR Idea: Obi Wan attempts to explain The Acolyte, The Force (or was it the Thread?) to a confused viewer
ASMR Idea:
*gonna Suck some random Tiits*
*'n' Eat some random aaaAAAAA*
# AAASS!
kinda like this but not exactly
ua-cam.com/video/iUmaTvtXn5Q/v-deo.htmlsi=aECSUBPFOlUMZ1mF&t=915
I am pretty sure its not „The Thread“ more likely its „The Threat“
But the fact that they see the Force as The Thread is not really the Problem…they just have their own idea of the same thing, and call it a different name. Just like some things are called different in various regions of this planet where we live on.
Your backdrop wall is awesome
Great Episode review, Spitting FACTS 👍🏻🫡
Im glad you don’t shill.
The ritual scene is actually a dance on SW Grave
At least we still have cal and his adventure
Prequel trilogy fans have become the bitter haters that the original trilogy fans were about the prequels.. this fanbase has ALWAYS been SUPER TOXIC. Acolyte is actually good so far and the hatred is just mass hysteria because "Dizneee" forgetting that Disney also made Andor and Rogue One.
People forget the level of toxicity of the starwars fandom to the extend that OT fans sent mass death threats to the CHILD ACTOR that played young Anakin.. 😂😂
You’re always hype with your star wars reactions. But Your post review is heart breaking, and I agree with you. I was on my phone for most of the episode
oh god it was so difficult to watch. Its as if Disney are hiring activists to make these new shows/movies...
That's exactly what they're doing.
It’s as if? They only give jobs to ppl who purposely don’t read the comics, don’t watch the movies, etc. there’s compilation videos full of Disney writers/execs saying just that
@@Mahhhdeee dude i was saying it with sarcasm
@@drumnbassdan lol
I've been watching you for 1+ years and even though I enjoyed the episode. I did like that the first dozen or so comments while not liking it didn't just make really negative comments without telling us why it affected them.
I've been watching Stat Wars since New Hope '77 as a teen. While I don't always agree with the inconsistencies of the use of different new characters I try to give the series a chance. The stories like Thrawn and other books released before the prequels were also controversial at the time.
I'm watching this from the perspective of people from other planets using the force and feeling policed by the Jedi instead of welcoming them.
From what I understand Leslie is doing episodes from different characters perspectives. This Osha version of what happened. The next maybe from Mae or Sol's point of view.
Sorry the series was difficult for you and others watch, but seeing 8+ reactors different points of view is interesting to me. Hang in there. May the Force Be with You. Also love your quotes ❤
After watching Ep.03 of The Acolyte I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
Aco-lightly put...This show is heaps of hot trash.
I can't watch another second. I'm far more excited for your reaction videos, yet I'm shocked you're still doing them. Let's have movies 1-6 watch parties instead so we can still get our skyman fix🤷♂️
i'm starting to get Kenobi series flashbacks, but it feels worse this time....lmao
Love the episode 1 shirt dude!!!
Aah well it was & is part of beautiful episode in Live Act Star Universe 🙂 The Night Sisters have existed since -94 & content in The Acolyte S01E03 is barely different 🙂 DS manipulated the Force to conceive Anakins Mom. S01E03 actions didn't deviate or change a a single thing about Star Wars lore. They literally rode with already existing content 🙂It doesn't take anything away from Anakin's storyline 🙂 Coven Witches (not said all would love same gender) UsEd the Force to make children ✅
Not children being created by the Force as was the case with Anakin 💯% Big difference there 🙂 Restream the scene to see it 🙂 Good times with so far nice S01 of Beautiful The Acolyte when stream at D+ 📺 5.1 Wireless Headphones, "65 Led Telly & dark room always when stream at evening to wind-down 🧘♂ Enjoy S01 o/
I was waiting to see this reaction. We share similar thoughts on most things “Star Wars”, as that was THE first movie I ever saw in a theater when I was a kid. That being said, if a prerequisite to getting hired on as a writer for this show was (and this is true) to never have watched a Star Wars movie, how shocking is it really that they miss the mark entirely? This show had almost a zero percent chance of success before a single camera was turned on. :(
Starman, the twins seem to be what Jedi and Sith might call a Dyad in the Force.
Do you recall the image of the First Jedi? It looked at lot like the Chinese image for Yin and Yang, the light and the darkness.
This connection between the twins seems similar. The twins are shaping up to be two parts of a whole, one dark and and one light.
What made Star Wars great? George Lucas said Star Wars was movie for 12 year olds.
Disney created a sequel trilogy for 12 year olds, but many older fans of the prequel trilogy disliked the sequel.
The was the identical reaction to the prequel trilogy. Lucas created a trilogy of films for 12 year olds, while many older fans of the original trilogy disliked it.
Disney seems to have recognized this pattern, this conundrum. They have broken from the tried and true formula of making content for 12 year olds, and created some content for the more adult fans.
Curiously, the unhappy adult fans see these attempts as breaking canon. But when Disney makes content for 12 year olds, the adult fans see it as repeating what has already been done.
Nothing wrong with you man... this show could have been something great, a new thrilling story, but it doesn't even feel like Star Wars. It's sad.
You are asking very legitimate questions!
The show wouldn't exist if Disney Lucasfilm had those questions in mind.
No I think there's nothing wrong with you, the writing is confusing to me too, I don't know who it is made for or what kind of people it is supposed to please, but I feel like this is trying to force some kind of message about female empowerment, diversity or other topics that the universe of Star Wars was never lacking of in the first place, while neglecting everything else, like the story or how mindful it is of the source material, this is very poor and any negative critics will be perceived as though they are only against the conveyed message when in reality, more often than not, they couldn't care less... On the other hand, positive reviews have to be biased and only take into consideration the message, because I really don't see what else there is to find in it and I am open to anyone willing to explain it to me, I mean it
I added this in ChatGPT.
“You are with me. I am with you.
Always one, but born as two.
As above sits the stars
and below lies the sea.
I give you you,
you give me me. make this better by making it sound like JRR Tolkien wrote it”
And got the following:
“Certainly! Here is your verse in a style reminiscent of J.R.R. Tolkien:
---
Together we stand, though born apart,
One in essence, yet twain in heart.
Above us shine the starlit skies,
Below, the ocean’s depths arise.
I mirror you, you mirror me,
In this dance of destiny.”
I now have confidence if I just input the current screenplay, I would get a much better one from an LLM…sad.
Skyman, I am thankful to watch someone who doesn’t care for this show. Most other reactors gobble this dross and ask for more. A few even sit and insult their fans and viewers by calling them racist/homophobic/bigots. Thank you sir.
Hey man, you look like you're straight out of Game of Thrones. Haha! I subscribe. 👑⚔️😂
They said r2d2 is lesbian in the interviews and have said this is the gayest Star Wars ever and that the fans are the issue bro what it immediately turned the fan base against them don't get me wrong it isn't a perfect fan base but failing 3 major films, kenobi destroying cannon, Mando 3 flopping, andor being misunderstood plus bringing back Rey and making bad batch once again destroy cannon it now takes nothing for everyone to be done with Disney Star Wars. Plus it's going to back fire everyone is going yo take their hate out on Igtba cause everyone seems them as responsible for the way everything is now just watch it's going to get nasty.
Time to buy the dvd so they can’t change them in the future and call it quits. I’ll always lone Star Wars but this isn’t Star Wars. This is lgtbq wars
This show seems great.
Looks to have all the stuff The stars war had. It feels like when Dark Vander destroyed the deafstar, thes guys are bad news bears. Just need the romance injection of Luke and Leia and a touch of celebrity cameos.
Man, you sincerity in your true fandom of StarWars is refreshing and it's nothing wrong with you...this show is BAD, just Bad! and it's NOT StarWars!
Makes the christmas special look like academy awards material no?😅
Mad respect for you man because I followed you from the Mando/Luke Skywalker episode and lovely to see you think for yourself 💪🏻
I refuse to watch this show and i probably never will change my mind, but im still popping in to see the comments lmao this shit is funny as hell
Nah give it a shot u’ll love it 😂😂
Why do this to yourself, Skyman? Have you no concern for your own well-being?! We do!
I’m in the same boat of confusion as you are
