  • Man, if you thought Episode 1 of The Acolyte was bad, just wait until you get to Episode 2. Floating Jedi, body-positive padawans and the worst assassin in Star Wars history. It's all here, and its all hilariously bad.

The moral: black women can't ever actually defeat the white male patriarchy unless it agrees to kill itself. Empowering!

    The acolyte has a budget of $180M. The budget for the original trilogy, adjusted for inflation for 1983-2024 is around $193M in TOTAL. Let that sink in for a second.

    • @illarionbykov7401
      @illarionbykov7401 3 місяці тому +209

      The original Star Wars got a writing budget in 1973 and a filming budget in 1975, so I think the total cost might be higher when adjusted for inflation from the 1970's instead of 1983.
      You main point is still 100% valid--the Acolyte was a huge waste of money, and Lucas was brilliant at creating best-in-their-genre box office blockbusters on a modest budget in his first decade as a filmmaker. The first 2 films were the most profitable (ROI) and widely regarded as the best, and their total budgets combined and adjusted for inflation were lower than the Acolyte's budget.

Darth Plumpious was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so bloated and vast he could influence the scale to shift... and gain weight at will. He had such a knowledge of the caloric intake that he could even keep the pounds from shedding. He became so rotund... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his girth, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice liposuctioned him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from slimming down, but not himself."

    The "force field" scenes are actually so much more stupid if you subscribe to the Rogue One explanation of the Force where it's literally just plot armor that allows you do to literally anything as long as you need to stay alive to do something really important. It may be that he's literally just in sleep stasis while the Force enabled God Mode on him. It's like in an old video game where your attacks are totally ineffectual to story critical characters.

Like a Sith sect came from the decadence of the Jedi and Mae/Osha were abused by these Jedi, and that's why Mae wants revenge. That could be interesting.

      Stop supporting Hollywon't trash. Give independent creators the support and viewership they've truly earned via exemplary storytelling, powerful character arcs, and proper dramatic structure.

      To think... maybe someday 'the Acolyte' will be remembered as Jar Jar Bing right now??
      How's that, for a chilling thought ???
      Maybe that's time we stop complaining about poop-culture and start caring about world-culture? (in both case, plot-culture is required)

      I never want to hear any complaints about Jar Jar or Ewoks ever again after this.
      Even though they were merchandise bait, they were at least trying to build up Star Wars.
