    Moral of the story: Don’t transform into a smoke demon in front of the cops

    Watching this now that we've seen the whole show, it's so funny how often they theorize about what's going to happen in the show based on things that have been set up in the show, and those theories and predictions are consistently wrong. Mind you not because the theories are bad, but because the writing is so mindbogglingly inconsistent.
    The Acolyte actively _punishes_ the viewer for paying attention.

    With all the outrage at the bonkers ending, I feel like everyone has forgotten all the weird nonsensical stuff from the first few episodes. What the hell was with the "no weapons" BS? I assumed there would be some kind of payoff for that later on that would make it sort of make sense, but it got completely dropped with no explanation.

      I thought about it some more, and to give modest credit where it's due, I GUESS Smilo's lines about how "an acolyte kills without a weapon" could be blunt, drunken foreshadowing for Osha's force choke at the end, and gives some reinforcement to her absurdly abrupt transformation from boring-but-harmless idiot to vapid-but-evil bitch: Mae could never manage to kill a Jedi without a weapon, but Osha does right away, making her the "real" acolyte. There's a whiff of good writing in that, but it still stinks overall because Smilo claims in the same unprompted monologue that "a Jedi cannot be harmed by a weapon" which is nonsense, and makes me wonder if I'm giving too much credit.

      I thought it was supposed to be a metaphor for destroying their morals and confidence in the force, saying "steel or laser is no threat to them", but then the next episode she says she literally has to kill a Jedi without a weapon. It's absolute nonsense.

      There is this one comic wehre Palpatine fights vader and claims he fights like a jedi, and shows him a sith doens't do fair lightsaber duels, but rather use the force and everything arround them to it's full strenght.
      I guess they're tying to push this idea that the sith use the force itself to kill instead of just their sabers, which is what makes them so dangerous, but of course, the show made that in the dumbest way possible.

      @@jimberjamber8540 What probably happened was Filoni or someone from his team of midwits but not actual retards gave them the line "an acolyte kills without a weapon... an acolyte kills the dream", which can only be interpreted in a sane writing way as a ripoff of Captain America - Civil War and its whole motif of turning the team of good guys against each other by exploiting their pasts, personalities and secrets. Which is an extremely easy premise to write because just like the mystery box approach it already has all the intrigue you could ever want baked into its core even before anything major happens. However, the millenial wahmen who wrote this show spent their 20s playing Cards Against Humanity in a dick drunk alcohol fueled haze and doing little else, so they took that line and straightforwardly interpreted it to be "ah Filoni wants us to write a charade/challenge like that drinking game when Mandingus had us get him off without grabbing his dick and we had to queef all over him", probably adding the "steel or lazer" line to the monologue which stands out like a sore thumb especially with Manny Cockquiao immediately turning on his lazer and Mae having already killed a jedi with steel. So they took it in this stupid charade direction which completely implodes on itself numerous times, from her killing Torbin without a weapon but it doesn't count (stupid as it was it is ironically the closest to an actual mature read of the line, convincing the Jedi to kill themselves with words), to Qoomer talking to Mae in the forest as if its some stupid drinking game, to her abruptly deciding nah (after basically killing Torbin without a weapon, mission complete), to him lazering a dozen Jedi (steel or lazer no threat to them), to Osha force choking her master as if it has some extra meaning over pushing a boulder on top of him with the force or something and as if killing the Jedi using the Force somehow "kills the dream" and is consequentially different from killing them with a lightsaber using your force abilities to enhance your lightsaber skills.
      Basically this was the equivalent of Zemo from civil war saying "An empire toppled by its enemies can rise again. But one which crumbles from within? That's dead" and then following up with "so after years of careful planning I have injected all of you with Super AIDs that will attack your vital organs and crumble you from within" with the expectation that you'd go WoAh ThAtS dEeP

    This is one of those shows where every line of dialogue is either

    Characters saying what they’re thinking
    Characters saying what the audience already knows
    Characters saying what each other already know

    This show 100% was a one-draft project, there was no review or second draft or any corrections.
    At most there was someone on the writing room with a list of star-wars stuff they could use to go 'Hey this part of the script is related to a preexisting SW thing, add a line to make the reference explicit!'

      Leslie literally casted the show by binging squid game and random Netflix slop and picking out characters she liked and copy pasting those actors in instead of doing actual casting rounds like those stupid yte men and their patriarchy. Like it makes no sense to bring in the squid game guy even if he is a good actor and have him deliver his lines like he's trying to eat an octopus after waking up from having his wisdom teeth pulled because he doesn't speak the fucking language. Before even getting to Amandlol Stenberg and the role being written just for her, Fjord, her wife, her wife's turbo soy jedi apprentice, etc.

      @@boatcaptain6288 This is the most important comment you will ever read.
      If you want to be in heaven after you die, should you be Muslim? How? I will tell you.
      But let me tell you first.
      This is a clear verse from the Bible that Jesus is not God.
      And he was sent by God as a prophet.
      John 17:3 This is eternal life, that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
      We Muslims love Jesus, but
      Jesus is a prophet of God.
      Stop worshipping him.
      He can do nothing for you.
      Just worship God, he loves you all.
      Accept it, people. Say: I bear witness that Allah is the only God and Jesus is his prophet.
      And Muhammad is his last messenger to the people.
      Quran (5:72) And they certainly did not believe when they said, "Christ (Jesus), son of Mary, is indeed God," while Christ (Jesus) had said,
      "Children of Israel." Worship Allah, who is your Lord and my Lord. Allah has forbidden Paradise to those who associate partners with Him in His Divinity, and their refuge will be the Fire. None will be able to help such wrongdoers.
