  • Episode 3 of The Acolyte really was the thread that unravelled all of Star Wars. Hope it was worth it.

    Does KK realise that the South Park line “ Put a Chick in it and make her gay and lame” was a criticism of the shit show that she’s turned Star Wars in to, and not a on going game plan. Disney has killed a franchise that pretty much had a license to print money. What a disgraceful and disappointing outcome for all of its true fans.

      I see two main theories of who this Sith person is. Either it is one of the mums, or Darth Plagueis. However, what if both are correct? A disgruntled communist space witch turns to the dark side because of the Jedi and even switches gender. Wouldn't that be brave? From Kennedy's perspective this makes perfect sense. The first transgender supervillain in Star Wars.

      @user-ig3pg1jo4q День тому

      The plotwists are aweful also watching 3 episodes (now 4) or something and nothing still makes sense isn't fun, this is telenovela writing.
      So far we have Mae that wants revenge and kill 4 Jedi Masters
      We are told that Mae started the fire and we see that in the flashback of EP3
      That flashback cuts out essential parts that imply that there was a fight
      In Episode 2 a Jedi Master kills himself willingly, because he feels guilt (and yes, his Makeup to make him look older is aweful).
      The way they direct these episodes and the way the story is told is aweful. When EP2 gives us reasons to believe that Mae didn't kill the witches, the flashback of EP3 should reveal some important information and confirm it, instead it only prolongs the uncertainty and we most likely have to wait for an additional flashback (telenovela quality) for it to make sense.
      Any possible explanation without Sol being a big liar to Osha is difficult to believe. If the execution of the witches was planned, happened in the situation because a fight broke out. Even if Sol was not present in that moment, because he rescued Osha, should the dead bodies of the witches show visible signs of lightsaber weapons being used? He only took a quick look, but it should be obvious to a Jedi Master. And shouldn't the Jedis involved told him what happened? Even if they were not that eager to tell him, he could make inquiries and Jedis are not supposed to lie. Sol just looks like a very naive and incapable Jedi Master no matter how you look at it. Or he's just playing the nice guy and is lying the whole time, because he knows more than what he's saying.
      And EP4 is worse. So now Mae decided that knowing that Osha is alive changes everything and that she no longer wants to kill Jedi? What kind of resolve!
      And did you see the Jedi? They have a out of training exPadawan with them but they left her behind in the formation. You would think the best formation would be a circle or cross formation with the unarmed civilian in the center, but what do I know. XD
      Oh and the Sith guy can force push all of them away, lol. Is this the prototype of Anakin Skywalker?
      And the biggest question: if there is a sith lord this strong 200 years before the events of Episode 1, why did they say that Siths were gone for 1000 years in the Phantom Manace?
      I don't think they have satisfying answers to this. It really feels like that they already wrote themselves into a corner when this series is ment to have 3 seasons or so and go into the story of Darth Sidious eventually.

    • I got no issues with them calling the Force the Thread. Different cultures call the Force Magic.
    • I got no issue with Anakin Skywalker not being the first child created using the Force.
    With that said if their focus was entertainment and respect of the franchise, Leslye Headland could of had an interesting show with some of the things outlined in The Acolyte.
    Imagine these Witches been creating children using the force in secret all the time. Darth Plagueis hearing about what they can do found them and extracted the knowledge of how to create a child using the force and kills them off. And in doing that made it looks like the Jedi killed off the Witches. Mae thinks Osha died and is taken by Darth Plagueis and trained as an Acolyte.
    They get their representation, we get an interesting story that doesn't break cannon.

      -i have a serious issue with anakin's purpose being washed down and cheapen.
      The writer wrote it all in the same way johnson wrote TLJ. Break and erase the lore and its rules.
      The difference btw Johnson and that B**** who wrote the acolyte is that her intent was to spite the audience. She said at first she hated everything about us and the universe and she then said she wanted to piss everyone off.
      Whats even more infuriating is the folks who decided to "connect the dots" by stretching any possibility imaginable to make it work ...ao much so that it becomes absurd and laughable - like a carricature and explaining how it can be the real person. Its the writer's job to create a plot, mysteries that respects whats established while pushing onwards into a believable follow up.
      What you are essentially doing is allow incredibly spiteful idiots lazy writers to get away with everything they do. Worst part, its only to not be seen as "bad", labeled while just mental gymnastic the "possible".
      This isnt a new franchise theyre building from the ground up. Its an established one with a lot of lore backing it that never breaks its theme or purpose (in 35 years before disney) and they brought lots of new things..
      This one does it all. Stop excusing it and make it about things the writer never wrote about or intended to. The EU is evidence of doing things right. Ashoka, clone wars and mando are others.

A plucky main character, storm troopers or clone troopers, jedi, bounty hunters, spaceships doing cool shit, cool planets. It's not fucking hard. You don't need to constantly innovate new shit, you have decades of lore to work from. These pathetic attempts to evolve the universe through a modern lens is infuriating.

    Just to address the angry badgers point about how its no different from the sisters of dathomir: it is. The canon was always clear about how the sisters powers worked, and why they were different. It also explains why they're green, its due to a green mist that only exists on dathomir and interacts with the force. This shit about the thread? directly contradicts how the force is supposed to work. does the average person know this? no, but nevertheless an explanation does exist within the canon for everything else EXCEPT the thread.

    • @angelaharris53

      Yep. That's the problem - it's not that these women just talk about, think about the force differently. They do it *and* it acts like it's not the force. That destroys world building. They can call it the thread and conceptualize it however they want so long as they are still using the force and it behaves the way the force behaves. Imagine how aliens might conceptualize gravity. It is likely wildly different, but gravity wouldn't care and would still operate as gravity does no matter how we think of it and describe or how aliens do. This stupid witch thing should be the same way, and with a talented writer who really cared about Star Wars, there could have been the potential for some good storytelling there, but instead, they're too busy slapping their cheap rainbow glitter all over it to mark the new territory.

Plus, as much as we remember Disney standing for good Family entertainment... It's much more about sexist toxicity for them now... Instead of taking the high road, they've decided to ruin their reputation through extremism, toxicity, obfuscation, and running the company into the ground...

      Yep, when they did a terrible Clone Wars remake that nuked the Mandalorians and the EU set during the Clone Wars and introduced a strong, independent whamen of color to tell Anakin how to be a Jedi and was a fifth as believable as Vader having a secret apprentice (fun game, crap lore), we all should have knew smelled a rat... Or rather The Mouse.

      I think the IP was in reasonable health back then, but then the heart was ripped out when Geroge sold it, JF managed to put it back on life surport, but then Kennedy in her eternal wisdom said "No, this won't do!!" Thus she pulled the plug, cut the cord, tossed the plug in the bin and said to everyone in the room "From now on, we put a chick in it and make it lame and gay!!" And those in the room clapped, shouted at how brave and strong she was, while JF, watched in horror as his attempts to save the brand, went up in smoke and likely said "Screw this!" Then filled his contract and left the room as the gas of toxic fumes of stupidy filled it up and the body that was once Star Wars, begins to rot away! While next door, similar thing happened with Marvel as the inmates take over the hospital meant to save the properties, all the while, the one in charge, sits in his office, having his two showers and likely smoking crack!

    Disney has produced a lot of disappointing Star Wars content, from The Last Jedi to The Mandalorian season three, the Obi-Wan Kenobi project, Ahsoka, The Book of Boba Fett, and the first few episodes of The Acolyte. I hope that they consider hiring UA-cam content creators or passionate Star Wars fans who create amazing fan films. Some of these fan films have been better than what Disney has produced, despite having more resources and money. Star Wars, please listen to the fans who have been dedicated for years and make some changes for the better.

    After a long battle with cancer (Disney), Star Wars is now in hospice care and not expected to last much longer. It’s such a travesty to see such a vibrant life be taken from us. Many of us agree that when it is Done we were better off having episodes 4,5,&6 in our lives when we did. When this is over we won’t have to witness the pain suffered through this degeneration (Disney). Go into the light friend (episodes 4,5,&6) you earned it.

      4. “The universe doesn’t like women like us.” Sisters of dathomir were and are dope as fuck. “The universe” just doesn’t like evil dark shit. Like possessing jedi and forcing witchdom upon children.
      5. The kid wanted to be a jedi regardless of how hard they tried to make the jedi master seem manipulative about it.
      6. The speed of that book fire was phenomenal. She hacked her vent and crawled through, the entire place was on fire in that 15 seconds.
      7. The jedi master that got assassinated was absolutely not master caliber, we have seen jedi stop projectiles using the lightsaber hand and the offhand. A random assassin is not going to kill jedi masters like that. darth maul was hardened and trained for ages to kill qui gon and he still got shit on after.
      8. Space fire
      9. The very first person on the show that needed to be questioned immediately got his mind read but then they just didn’t do it to anyone else when the stakes got higher.

Some fans would make stupid stuff for the sake of it, but a lot of fans would generally make better stuff. Because they are fans and fans don't like seeing their favorite franchises suck, so they put more effort. Like with modders who put more effort than official developers when it comes to games.
    No one person can save star wars at this point. Not Filoni, not Jon, not even Lucas himself. To me, they have sold out at this point and it's the fans that would restore it.

    I'd say the more appropriate way to put it in that among everyone who has been in mourning for the last twelve years most have reached the stage of acceptance with this episode. Many have been in denial, the journalists defending Disney are doing the bargaining, the original fan community here has been angry, but most everyone has finally reached acceptance now.
    Good to see Chris back.

    I can imagine it kicking off with maybe one of the witches attacks Tobin(?) and he defends himself, killing her, weakened or shaken from the early attack on him.
    He'll probably end up receiving his scar as a last hurrah from a dying mother.
