Osha: “I’m not easily corrupted.”
Also Osha: Became easily corrupted right away because the guy (who murdered her friends) is hot and then proceeded to murder her own mentor instead of asking him more for his justification for killing her witch cult leader mom.
Osha: “I’m not easily corrupted.”
Darth Chadicus: (Removes shirt)
Osha: “I will do whatever you… (labored breathing) ask.”
Episode 3: I'm the worst episode
Episode 7: Hold my thread
Episode 8: Oh my sweet summer child
It never ends how funny this is 🙂
KK does not understand that her whole war on the patriarchy can not be fought in nerd world. If anything nerds want to escape the patriarchy. So everything KK does was for not.
This show literally wants us to believe the Jedi used a metal detector to try to find Plagueis
"I think of a man, then i remove logic and accountability."
And that’s how write a woman ! - As Good As it Gets
yes. that explains everything at this point.
Perfect
This makes me wonder how women write men.
@@banhammer3904 .... have you beeen watching the ACOLYTE :D
oh you mean a equivelent line to that.
Women write men in one of several ways.
The forbidden bad boy they can change and give a heart of gold who will always stand up for them and save them. Giving them power and safety and affection.
The useless paperwork guy who does integral work that doesnt matter to her emotions so long as the paperwork is right.
Then theirs hot attractive farm hand boyfriend, hes strong, comes in many flavors, believes in right and wrong, and she can taim his rough edges and teach him to take off his boots before coming in, if she wants to, she may find it more exciting to keep them on.
Then you have useless moran #4, background man who bears no relevence to her and his incompetence or general ugliness only enhances the attractiveness of her chosen love interest. he may also be a plain jane and not ugly, or even attractive for other women, but of zero interest to the lead woman character.
That leaves the bad guy that needs to be defeated, depending on the author, tax collectors, police, exboyfriend who she DOESNT still secretly love, exhusband who is abusive or just a clod that never became everything she tried to give and make him into, and refused to listen to her good sense. he was a failure because he did not have faith in her vision and obediance to get through it all. nor the intelligence or strength to make her ideas work. this is the most dissapointing man in the saga and the entire story revolves around her love interest defeating him, then making sweet hot love to her.
There may be male children, but they dont count as a man and are just a representation of her good ness and general gift to human kind to make the world be better. they may need a loving father figure to enter their lives and the story may be about that, or about the husband coming around to be a good father if he isnt already, inwhich case the story is about a man learning to listen to a woman to become a better and true man in her eyes and the stories eyes.
so the only time we saw the light saber whip was when baldy killed a bug? and that's what they were hyping?
Sounds about right for Disney Star Wars.
Star Trek fans are like…. “Welcome to the club!!”
What do you mean? Star Trek was always woke. You people just hate taking the back seat for once. It makes ZERO sense to hate on Discovery when it's actually overdue for a black female lead for that franchise. Uhura should've had her own show.
@suzygirl1843 sorry star trek was liberal show that was able to show both sides equally and cause great discussions to be had not discovery which is as the Alex Kurtzman says is a platform forgoing all the great storytelling and worldbuilding which came before
@@suzygirl1843 Woke? Have you seen all of TOS and TNG? Civilization in Star Trek evolved past woke and sought greater meaning in exploring the universe and bettering one’s self.
Uhura’s response said it best when Abraham Lincoln called her a “Charming Negress”. Uhura said, “Why, thank you, sir. But why should I object to that term, sir? You see, in our century, we’ve learned not to fear words.”
This line highlights the show’s vision of a future where humanity has moved beyond racial prejudice and discrimination.
The current Star Trek after Kirkman and JJ took over, lost its greater meaning and turned the series into a non-sensical world where they don’t understand the science behind the universe and destroyed original character storylines…. only saving grace is that they did this all in the Kelvin timeline and it all can be erased from history when Star Trek gets sold to someone that knows what they are doing.
@@JohnTube2K I have... and why are YOU ignoring that during it's airing Nichelle Nichols who plays Uhura almost quit because she was receiving HATE mail from fans? You trying to rewrite history? You behaving EXACTLY as the fans did back in the day, nothing has changed, you're still bigots.
You know the funny thing is, for weeks we have been talking about the Bear vs Man and you still have nerds making themselves victims of imaginary Misandry. 4B Movement couldn't have come any sooner. I am proud of the women in the West depopulating you. Disney really just making content for Asians and Africans since they're the ones reproducing the largest populations. Your time as a white man on Earth is over simply due to your own ego, just like Rome. Good day.
There will be a season two. The Rat gets what the Rat wants, regardless of consequence.
They WANT to DESTROY all their franchises, because they are communists!
OMG! I can hardly wait for the EFAP of the whole show! it will be so fun watching the breakdown of theshow by Mauler and friends!
I, personally, love Little Platoons insight.
@@jacobbernardoni1958 I agree! I like both channels insights!
“Yas! Yas! Yas!” - the first time Alan comes across camper than Chris
For the funeral I just need to see the clip where Mae says “See you in hell Jedi” 😂😂
"Chris almost snapped when he said, "Who thinks this is logical!?"
They probably wrote it with the following rule: "Now what would MAKE SENSE in this situation? LET'S DO THE OPPOSITE!"
@@Muck006 a 180M improv session gone wrong.
@@RevoVansenhahahahah i almost choked on my chocolate milk when i read you’re comment sir.😭😭 i gotta show this to my friends
@@goldwaffletv what’s so funny is that there are moments like this in review video I’ve seen. This show is an insult to logic.
Is it possible that this series was written by Artificial Stupidity?
Gary needed to be here...there was balance in the review. ❤️ You guys! Yaaaaaaasss
Any dog playing dead is a better actor than Headland's wife
And HeadLamp’s wife is somehow more likable than AmanDuhLa Stenberg. And that’s not saying much.
@Ryan-vl2nn I agree. Amandela was awful
Thanks for covering this as this was the series I tapped out on (and boy I am glad I did) but your commentary which I trust implicitly has saved me the pain of watching this which had I watched I know I could not Unsee !
The power of one, >yeep yeep< the power of two >hysterical scream< the power of FANNYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY >turbo turds
R.I.P STAR WARS
Incels need to stop holding onto the past. Disney has BEEN trying to tell you. You refuse to listen. Star Wars is for KIDS, not grown weirdos
And all the shills on X are shrieking about how "good" the show is. It's insane how absolutely awful The Acolyte was. Star Wars will NEVER be the same. It broke the fanbase into two distinct sections for good.
I want off the ride
You aren't a fan when you get paid to promote something.
No, it split into two distinct sections. One for good, the other, for bad.......
And there was me thinking Alan was making a new Frankie goes to Hollywood video(intro)😂
To use one of Gary's favourites lines: "You sweet summer children" - You didn't think a show could get this bad😅😂🤣
They spent $179,999,998 trying to tell a story over 8 episodes and the story was summarised perfectly by an 8-minute conversation at the end, that cost $2 to film 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍😎
The Ballsackolyte.
In a blue lagoon filled with frigid waterfalls,
Swam a naked, dark jedi, with shrinking balls.
They danced on the surface, weightless and spry,
Soggy and shrivelled, like a pea in the sky.
With a twirl and a whirl, they banged with a bounce,
The fans, were excited and waited to pounce.
A marvel to see, two force sensitive spheres,
Their secrets revealed as Osha hungrily peers.
He is the Ballsackolyte, a handsome dark knight
His helmet keeps his identity locked tight
The naked sith lord, with luminous balls
A Darthmaul clone, minus facepaint, horns and overalls.
I've watched NO Star Wars since The Last Jedi, but I know all of it, thanks to you guys. Thank you for taking the hits for us.
I KNEW that this show would be s**t! What else can you really have expected from the glorified secretary of a known serial rapist and a man-hating sycophant (and a cowboy hatted weasel)?
If Bob Iger had bought Lucasfilm and locked it in a vault (like he did with Fox), they'd have been better off (and three franchises might have kept their fandom).
“No we’re not well” - Ok then 😂😂
This will get a full 2 season. It is not about the money but the message that all the You Tubers are wrong. By next week it will announce
@luisg2665 💯 "it's not about the money. It's about sending a message" literally.
They don’t care to specifically say UA-camrs were wrong. at this point they just don’t wanna admit anything.
What message?
YTers praying for more, they eatin' good!
@PeregrinTintenfish MESAGE: "Star. Wars Viewers & Fans are all Toxic Franchise Terrorists
The Acolyte: imagine Charmed edited like a Christopher Nolan movie. Written, produced and directed by one of Harvey Weinstein’s ring wraiths.
Yasssss! Yasssss, well done. At least it is over.
They talk about making new stories. Moving away from the original trilogy. Then they tie this show into the whole original 6 movies especially the prequels. Changing the foundation of how we (might) view the Jedi due to all this coverup stuff. Why do they need to make stories that F with the entire concept of what the Jedi are doing in episode 1.
It would be entirely possible to make a good show in a different time period that doesn’t tie into the old stuff. Like they just said in the video “fundamentally”change the universe.
you guys missed the *pure genius* of the writers. Osha ran to the planet to save Sol from getting killed by Mae, but what she REALLY saw was that SHE was the one who killed Sol in her vision, BECAUSE THEY'RE THE TWINS AND EVEN SHE CAN'T TELL HERSELF APART!!
Love the show as always, guys. And I just bought one of the Star Wars is Dead T-shirts in Navy. Peace and love. lol
remember when people used to say each new thing was to get you excited for the next new thing?
Who's excited for that Mandalorian movie after this show?
If Osha wanted to make a choice for herself, she should've stopped emulating Bella Swan and gained some FRIGGIN' _AGENCY._
Bella Swan generated a billion dollar franchise. Clearly they know what they're doing because my brother rewatches the Twilight franchise all by himself every year WITHOUT me. He started off hating it but he's a fan even though he cannot admit he enjoys Twilight
@@suzygirl1843 That was a romance novel/movie, not whatever this show is meant to be.
I remember some bint I was dating making me watch it. At least she made drinks with dinner first.
@TaoScribble This show IS trying to be a YA Sci-fi romance. They had to lay the backstory first, just like Anakin. Qimir looks like Robert Pattinson.
@banhammer3904 Don't lie, you love Twilight. I made my brother watch the first movie but he offered to watch the rest of them with me like he was doing me a favour. And now rewatches these movies every year without me.
Gary is right, they wont turn around with just 1 movie.........ill wait until the reviews come out on YT.
Yes, the High Seas provided me with the Despecialized Editions. Well seeded.
Why the frig is no one talking about why they/them wee beaver hamster thing sabotaged the ship?!!!
46:12 The preview of StarWars Funeral
Mae and Osha are officially the worst Star Wars characters ever made.
so far..........
What else do you expect from a soap brand?!
Kinda crazy they used the same set for 3 full episodes (3,7, and 8 all on the brendok sound stage)
The Acolyte logic: The power of many is greater than the power of 2
Also The Acolyte logic: Mae is going to stay behind, so instead of having 3 people working together (many) there'll just be 2 people working together
It's Alan 'Yaaaaasss' Ng and Chris 'Nooooo' Gore!
YAASSSS
@Alan Ng Fun fact: tornado science is NOT settled. Respected independent scientists are exploring the dustification of non-organic objects that is observed in certain toradoes. Structures of buildings being turned to dust in stead of bent or broken. Heavy objects are lifted in a way that's not easily explained by available air pressure differences and wind speeds. Anti gravity of sorts possibly in play. In the lab at micro scale similar effects that conventional science cannot explai are observed.
I believe they wrote this ending first then filled the other 7 episodes with BS to make this episode kinda make sense.
This show was a disgrace , Disney should be ashamed, anyone that green light this should be Ashamed of themselves . Just wow, Disney has blown my mind how bad they are
You guys should consider doing reviews for movies of the past, including bad ones
More holes in the plot than a sieve. Why did SOL try to kill Mae with his ship’s guns? Why did SOL have to die ? Why didn’t the twins merge together ? Why was Darth Plagueis there ? Why cover up the cover up ? Why didn’t anyone kill the Beaver who could tell someone everything ?? Why did they use Mog’s plan to frame SOL ? Why didn’t SOL kill Smilo Ren when he had the chance ? Why blame SOL for everything ? Stop the Asian Hate ? Why does Nepo Lady use the Force to open doors which could be automatic? Why wipe Mae’s memory and not take her with them ??
All the yaaaaasss ( because she didn't know what else to say ) can make this show watchable
Picard Season 3, a creative was given half a shot. Why, sunk cost, they'd invested in key cast members and stages anyway? Some sort of an audience to serve? So it CAN be done. We forget previous seasons and someone capable (usually a white male) fixes all he reasonably can.
Glad you guys watched it so I don't have to.
Were there no adults available to get on set once in a while? Bob? Boooob???
The only way we get no more of this is if the stake holders threaten to pull their stock! Not even the share holders can do anything about it! I believe they will do another season simply because we don't like it!!!!!
We’ve gone way past “car crash TV” into “autopsy TV” at this point … or perhaps like watching a beloved family pet be vivisected
It's getting a Season 2 thanks to you nerds. Congratulations for free advertisement
What a hellish year. On one side it's awful social justice entertainment and the other side has people getting shot in the ear
You'll shoot your eye out!
"See you in hell, jedi" - do they have the Christian concept of an underworld in Star Wars, that takes place long ago in a galaxy far, far away?
I have heard the mention of either heaven or hell in Star Wars before bc I remember ppl complaining about it. I can’t remember what film I was but chances are it also didn’t make sense
Did they ever explain Osha heel turn other then we forgot which twin was which. Because Sol confession should have fueled Mae rage and abandonment issues not Osha
This also means there 4 sith in the universe. Osha cumir and plaguey and his underling Tenebursous
Never thought I'd grieve for Star Wars
Twister had a professional rivalry between Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt. He had the passion for chasing funnel clouds and she had the scientific know-how. Movies have been working the girl boss angle for a long time. Pretty soon there won't be any male characters at all in movies.
Samurai Cop in Space.
Eternal Sunshine of the Jedi Mind
For most of the series, I was trying to trace the events of Mae’s life after the fire or the scene on the bridge.
I guess she survived the fall into the pit, because there’s a horizontal vacuum tube on the wall?
If there’s a passage into the fortress that doesn’t involve hacking a control panel or rock climbing up a steep wall, why not just sneak in that way? How did Osha keep leaving the fortress without using a passage like that?
Mae had seen Sol alive and Osha alive at the time of her fall, but she didn’t logically deduce that maybe the Jedi just left the planet and took Osha with them? She just sat by the bunta tree for an unspecified amount of time?
How did Mae survive after the fire? The fortress looked burnt and there was no generator for electricity.
Mother Koril never tried to come back to Brendok to restart the coven? Or give the Jedi a hard time?
Mae was approached by a weirdo in a helmet to start training as a Sith? And never saw him without the helmet? She couldn’t detect Darth Plagueis on the private island?
I pretty much knew Osha couldn’t stay as the good twin. Mae having amnesia or a memory wipe means they can’t put her in jail for at least what happened to Indara and Torbin? Qimir has the mind wipe ability, but he can’t just use that to make any Jedi forget that they saw him wearing a helmet to conceal his identity?
If they make their investment back... You'll get a season 2...for sure .
There will be a season 2. Zero doubt.
I really don’t know what’s worse, this or Halo season 1 show
Makes Obi Wan look Awasome 😂
Who's the protagonist? Who's the antagonist? How do their drives, motivations, and flaws play out with each other??
Chris is right about kitchen-sinking the stuff on screen. That goes for the twins and the witches too. They're catalysts, not characters. It's just a mess. The implications of Vernestra briefing Yoda are ... gut-churning.
Poor Yoda. Couldn't even show his face.
I’m watching episode 4, night, when the 3 trees get cut by the lightsaber, they all fall down the wrong way!! (I could be wrong but I don’t think so).
The Acolyte, created for those who hate Star Wars. The 180 million dollar suicide pact.
"NOTHING IZ OVER!!1" -RAMBO ;))
What happened when you hire actors and writers based on physical characteristics and sexual preference instead of talent?
This... This happens and no one is watching it...
I'm glad that I didn't review my Disney+ subscription after I saw the Solo movie....
I know who Darth Plagueis is and that he is in a novel I haven't read. Does that make me a hardcore Star Wars fan? :)
"Somehow the Acolyte returned for Season 2"😅
I deleted my Disney plus account because of this show
They don't need you to subscribe. Disney is part of the big 6 corporations than run the whole body corporate media. Subscriptions give you the illusion of choice, they got your money from other things like UA-cam, Discovery etc. Its a monopoly
Is it OVER though? What if there is a season 2?
Did disney even make their money back they spend buying starwars.
It would be great if George Lucas would endorse star wars funeral.
You guys should cover older movies
Nope. The toys have never turned a profit, and was the first area that started losing Disney money.
The Laugh Jedi
why did OSHA kill sol? there was no work done to make that make sense
Join the Darkside After all Mark Hamill recommends it now
I would like to see a survey by age on D-Star Wars. I think 12 and under like SW
Seriously guys where can I find a 4k version of the despecialized original Star Wars movies??
The original film reels.
You know how the original movie was "saved in the edit"? Why couldn't this happen in the Disney era? this would have been leagues better if it were four episodes rather than 8.
Sol dying: osha I ruv you rong time……..
He said he loves her? I need to rewatch
@@suzygirl1843 tbh I didn’t watch this dogshite show I just watch the clips of the dumb moments
Chris can you make a star wars show already and save pop culture?
I’m with Alan, grace randolph will turn around, I’ll put a bet on it
I still vehemently disagree with the claim of needing to reboot after Secret War.
What do you do then? Retell Cap's origin? Iron Man's origin? Do Hulk over again?
And while you're stuffing 3 Avengers reboot films a year in, where does that leave the X-Men?
There's no need to reboot the MCU right now. Just shift focus to the mutants as the focus.
X-Men (Blue Team)
Uncanny X-Men (Gold Team)
X-Force (Cable's team)
X-Factor (government team with Havok)
Excalibur
Generation X
Fall of the Mutants, X-Tincton Agenda, Inferno, Second Genesis, X-Cutioner's Song, Phalanx Covenant, Brood, Shi'ar Empire, Juggernaut & Black Tom, Muir Island, Proteus, Fatal Attractions, Age of Apocalypse
Just the 80s and 90s have a mountain of stories that can be adapted while the Avengers sit on the back burner. You've easily got another decade of Marvel films without a reboot solely by focusing on the mutants.
Why do Jedi bother with anything if they can just be force choked as a master
Their one fatal weakness - darkside users
1 Star…
How much does it matter if they CHANGE when only their loss in revenue is their Reasoning, with No Remorse or Accountability for everything they Destroyed, but the Fan Boys are a Forgiving Bunch, they'll be back just to b*tch and hee-haw.
#DisneyIsADeadBrand
I feel like the funeral is too real to be funny. I get sad just thinking about it. I know it'll be handled well though.
Seeing Plagueis being a peeping tom hurts my soul
People who enjoyed this series though dont know how people at new rockstars, guardian of the palaxy, and screencrush liked this show
So Plaguies learns about how to create life from witches and by earwigging a conversation? Oh come on, that writing is shocking.
No thanks, sticking a saber in does nowthing in Disneywars... Unless you do it three times, I guess?
Tell Gary to stop insulting wine boxes. These *itches are definitely on something stronger, like psychedelic mushrooms or LSD.
When you hit peak Star Wars apathy, you will not have an audience for anything Star Wars.
People still get secondary enjoyment from Star Wars being eviscerated.
The writing in this show is horrendous. It was never in Oshas character to force choke Master Sol. She never had a hint of evil during the whole series. And when did Osha ever become a badass? The show never shown Osha lift a finger in the series and in one episode she becomes a tenth degree black belt? She couldn’t even use the force to draw Pip to her, where the hell did she get the power to force choke all of a sudden. The only part I enjoyed out of this whole series was when Pip squirted a load all over Oshas face. Other than that, this show mad no FN sense. And what the hell did the ending represent? Qimir and Osha are going to make Blackanese babies with biceps and that are going to trip and plant their face into the ground every five minutes?
Justice for Sol!!! He did NOTHING wrong!!! I can't get over how BAD, TERRIBLE and DISGUSTING the writing in this series is. Just horrid.
Yoda is in this shit ou F
SITHERS, so mae has her memory wiped so she has no remorse for being an evil mass murderer! does she get away with that scott free?
I was at acceptance after TLJ from the slop of TFA. Haven’t seen Star Wars anything since but like listening to coverage of all the garbage to laugh haha. To be fair I didn’t like the prequels either
Hey! You leave IKEA alone! IKEA is awesome! They have cheap food and everything!
I can't even.
