THE ACOLYTE: Episode 3 - Lore Breaking Character Assassination

- The controversy around this episode started before the series even aired. My grievances surround a couple of points pertaining to Star Wars lore, and the character of The Jedi.
#TheAcolyte - Zábava
I used to watch Star Wars. Now, I just watch the CZcams content.
CZcams has videos not content
@@Stringer13ell Videos are content.
@@Stringer13ellbro social media is literally content. If anything TV and movies shouldn’t be considered content although to studios like Disney it definitely is
My thoughts exactly
the book of bobba fett was the one who broke my brain. it was so bad that i felt betrayed by an IP (well GRRM not releasing the 6th book is number 1)
"You cannot win, Anakin. I have the high threadcount" said Obiwan, slowly caressing the cashmere shawl
I just bought the new 96 core Threadripper Anakin.
The memorable Obi-Halston Kenobi quote.
They turned him into a B'tch also🤦
Official Disney Canon. Darth Kennedy is pleased.
"You underestimate my cross stitch"
The witches died of cringe after realizing their chant was terrible
But it was the power of many.
Babe, if cringe could kill would we not all be dead watching this guy wax about Star Wars lore like a poorly socialised 13 year old? These voices and impressions dripping with self satisfaction isn’t causing you cringe? But a bloody chant is? Hahahah okay sweetheart
@@affenket nothing more cringe then calling strangers on the internet babe and sweetheart lol.
@@affenketlol the irony..🤡.
@@tyleradams9358 you opinion on the matter is meaningless. Try not to get too upset up it
Jeremy is right, Qui-Gonn and Shmi DO feel like a couple despite having only just met.
Qui gon is an opportunist and shmi is a hot milf. Id ship ngl
The worse this show gets, the better Jeremy’s review gets.
I miss bill Murray Star Wars cape Jeremy tho😢
Sure
He still doesn't give a fuck and that's why I love him.
I really want to know who the target audience for this show is because I think I need a microscope to find them.
Well, there's that.
"You can't stop me."
"Yes, I can."
"How?"
"I'll kill you."
The pen truly is mightier than the sword.
That was so poorly written it was painful. If I were writing that line it would have been "You are never leaving!" Mae locks the door and then in a fit of rage sets the fire.
@@GrandPoppyA a good example of "less is more" 👍
Ok i was defending this episode but THAT was a odd line 😅
@@beltfed Exactly
1. If I can't have you no one can is a very real thing so just in that line of thought, there's nothing wrong with this line.
2. Osha is almost certainly remembering things wrong or her memory has been altered. That seems to be VERY clear from these first three episodes. We aren't getting the full truth, at all.
After watching The Acolyte Episode 03, 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.
More like hundreds of voices by this point.
Lol ok...... @@Aedrion-
There's seriously some epic lore surrounding that FIRE in the acolyte show ...
What is this fire ? why does it burn stone? How does it burn without oxygen? will they devote a show or series explaining this mysterious fire ?
It's definitely on fire 🔥
@@whitneyANDbunny It's Force Fire.
*the Thread
(joking)
It is painful to witness Jeremy's gradual loss of interest in Star Wars from the Force Awakens teaser to his complete indifference at this point. We are all part of him.
I heard no lies from Amandla Stenberg. The Star wars fandom is the most racist and bigoted fandom, nerds are insecure that way. Remember how they treated John Boyega?
Just the “Hi” at the beginning says everything you need to know.
Lmfao Facts 😢😂
I watch CZcams content about Star Wars. I don't watch Star Wars.
Very Dark Knight Joker-esk lol
Little fucking Eastwood, it’s gonna be cold
He channelled his inner Ross Gellar.
"That's not how the force works!" Han Solo
It's actually kind of sad that the most iconic line in all of Disney Star Wars came from an OG trilogy character played by an actor who didn't even like the character, didn't want to do the movie, and died like a chump an hour or so after delivering said line.
@@SliderFury1 most iconic? Exhibit a: I am your father

Critic score: "The power of 1, the power of 2"
Audience score: "The power of many"
@@FaceBack2122 Mark Cerny wrote it
@@Unicornpirate lol ! So true!
Plagueis literally used the force to create actually life and had to practice for hundreds of years to succeed. He succeeded briefly and the force itself considered the act so heinous that it created anakin skywalker to wipe out the sith and balance the force. But these two just do it with no consequences.
Watching the slow decline of Jeremy’s enthusiasm for Star Wars from the Force Awakens trailer to his absolute apathy now is heartbreaking. He’s all of us.
Star wars fandom got crushed for many of us with force awakens.
@@blopp6240For allot of us the hype around TFA blinded us. But TLJ was such a blatantly hostile attack against the fans it retroactively snapped people back into realizing TFA was shit too. It was just better at hiding it.
They burned the old heroes to the ground and even though they had a lot of potential (who didn't want to see Fin become a badass Jedi) they gave us sloppy, lazy writing throughout the new movies and these shows. Such a waste.
Underrated, but over-depressing comment. 👍🏽😪
But at the very least he's found respect and tolerance for the prequels. Then again, I much prefer a time where Disney didn't have Star Wars and Jeremy hated the prequels.
At this point, Star Wars has made Jeremy more drunk than the Critical Drinker.
damn, you might be right there haha.
Excellent choice of liqour though.
Go away now
Who?
@@and8091 living under a rock?
@@and8091 Critical Drinker is a Scottish CZcamsr who has been calling out Hollywood's crap for years now.
You might say he's "anti-woke" but in reality, he just wants good movies to watch and Hollywood's been too heavy handed with their messaging in recently years to the point where shows are predictable, boring and just plain bad. He's been getting more and more popular as of late and I say it's about time. Man's earned it.
That's all I've got for today... Go away now.
Thank you Jeremy. Stuckmann clearly isn't going to go anywhere near this dumpster fire.
If he did, he would shill for Disney.
He doesn't review movies and shows to tear them down because filmmaking is hard guys :(
/s
he wont criticise anything gay, even if it sucks
The old Stuckmann would not go near this. The new one will.... "love it" because of his job now. I never watch his reviews anymore because he gives good reviews to bad movies as well. It's heartbreaking
@@Bluenosedwill1I hope one day you grow and change as a person.
Jeremy mentioning they might retcon Shmi Skywalker and make her a witch filled me with dread.
They won't. He doesn't know what he's talking about. Force conception isn't some crazy new idea that breaks canon, it's obviously very rare and they didn't do a good job considering Osha is incredibly weak in the force. The Witches weren't shown as being good and the Jedi being flawed is nothing new considering this is over 100 years before the prequels. Just because this one specific tiny cult has a different interpretation of the force doesn't mean the entire universe has changed, it's a small side story that takes place completely outside of the skywalker saga
@@ethanhaynes7406bro it directly violates the sacred idea of anakin being a one of a kind one off of the force directly intervening to balance itself without being manipulated
...... and that's still the case. Nothing has changed that. The force itself, of its own accord, created Anakin & impregnated his mother.
The Acolyte tells us something COMPLETELY different occurred, that being one of the witches manipulated the Thread (what they call the Force) to create the twins and impregnate another witch.
So, 2 different scenarios which still allows Ani's to be special.
@@ethanhaynes7406not to mention this isn’t even the first time this has happened I mean night sisters anyone? They have powers and aren’t force wielders either
@@anthonymelendez333Anakin was never one of a kind though. He was just the next chosen one… much like Luke became the chosen. Like come on. You are so bored you care so much.

Went up like it was made of gaseoline and matches.
Thats what i said! I lost my mind when she dropped the candle and it spread over concrete. Wtf
But what can we expect from a show that has fires in space. 🤦🏻♂️
Osha (Occupational Safety & Health Administration) failed to ensure that the fortress was in compliance with fire protection safety requirements.
*franchise that has had fires in space since 1977
I'm so tired of being call Right Wing because I simply don't like this show
I swear when Master Sol let Mae fall I got pissed. Seriously, he’s a Jedi master. Over the years, I have seen Jedi toss folks around all over the damn place and Yoda lifted a friggin star ship out the swamp with his mind, but this dude couldn’t “Jedi force catch” her before she fell to her death?!? That kinda stood out tome in a very “lazy writing” kind of way.
Yup especially since in literally the previous episode he saves her from falling using the force. they can't even maintain consistency from one episode to the next.
Someone on CZcams said it perfectly:
“For thousands of years the sith tried and failed to create life, the jedi couldn’t, the witches of Dathomir couldn’t, but these absolutely RANDOM witches could not once but TWICE”.
Sounds like some Silicon Valley Scam😂😂
“Black Girl Magic!” Nick Fury
@@danielwright3929YASSS YASSSSS!!!
The Jedi did not even try, it would be immoral and against the will of the Force.
Sidius created anakin using the force. Canon😂
"I half expected Qui Gon to lay some pipe with Shmi."
Oh thank goodness I'm not the only one
Here here
Their chemistry is strong I noticed it even as a kid, Liam Neeson as Qui Gon comes across as a gentle, caring and also capable man, woman like that as they subconsciously are attracted to men who are good with kids for obvious reasons.
Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.
Yeah, those smiles said everything.
I would've for sure....totally babe. Maybe I've just got a thing for single mom's though. Hmmmmm.....
@@George-um2vcNot all women though especially if they hate kids or don't want kids of their own.
The apathy has set in at this point, not only with DSW's, but with almost all mainstream entertainment from Hollyweird.
CZcams videos about Star Wars. Thank you for saving hours of my life.
Remember, Godzilla Minus One cost nearly half as much to make as an episode of The Acolyte…
That's insane
How much did the workers for minus one get paid tho😅
Guarantee it wasn’t as much as the folks behind the acolyte.
Movies aren’t that expensive to make when you got “prisoners with jobs” making them
This cost 10 million dollars
@@platinumwarrior1309 I don't have an exact breakdown of cost per episode, and I doubt Disney would release it. However, I'd guess like most Holloywood productions the bulk of the budget is marketing an high paid actors. I doubt any of the main cast even came close to $1M for their salary and Minus 1 had very little marketting outside Japan. It had a pretty limited release in the US and was mostly spready by word of mouth. From what I can tell from sources online, the main person that did all the extra work without upfront pay was the director himself. He apparently did a lot of VFX on the film.
Equally as terrible and a waste of money though 🤣
I remember when Jahns always had his Star Wars curtain as a cape for reviews... not anymore.
Says it all really.
Disney turned this man into an alcoholic 😂
I’ll say it, Disney Star Wars was the inevitable ending when all those “fans” bullied George Lucas out of his own creation claiming someone else could do it better and they have been proven wrong for almost a decade now
@@Danjoker.The poor man's spirit is completely broken... Or maybe fandom is living in purgatory the world ended this is hell and or purgatory 😂
That was before the dark times, before Woke -Disney.
@@Tadicuslegion78 Not entirely true - Andor is better and has very little to do with George Lucas. So, it is possible, just rare.
If 3 was lore breaking, wait until 4 when a character shows up 30 years before they were born.
Who?
Of course, to the person who used to be Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant the good guys seem like the bad guys.
"I sense there's a plot to destroy the Jedi." Mace Windu
Yup...no joke. This is all due to Kathleen Kennedy's desire to make SW into her own thing. She is so arrogant to think that by sidelining / minimalizing the Skywalkers + Jedi that a new group of fans will suddenly appear and support it. Hopefully if the rumors are true her days at Lucasfilm are over....
"Yes, to make good evil and evil good a plot there is." Yoda, probably.
@@bigdude8180as bad as this show is… you really think the idea of the Jedi being bad started with Kathleen Kennedy?
@@jomonte100This the only point I'll push back on. Since the prequels they've been trying to add more nuance to the Jedi. And the clone wars shows it best. The Jedi are not some perfect paragons. They have very clear systemic flaws that lead to their own destruction. There were literal entire storylines about them loosing their way and criticising Jedi practices. They legit use child soldiers.. Like come on now.
Most of the old Jedi like yoda and obi wan admit in the original that the Jedi failed/lost their way. Like we can't be watching the same starwars.
Meanwhile, somewhere in America right now, Matt Stone and Trey Parker are writing a thank you letter to Lesyle Headland and Kathleen Kennedy for giving them years of upcoming jokes for "South Park" from this episode alone. "The Acolyte" as a whole must be like finding a sunken galleon full of comedic gold.

It’s been 5 years since Rise of Skywalker and I can’t believe Star Wars is still falling to newer lore breaking lows.
Rise of Skywalker... back when I thought bad, lazy writing is the worst thing a screenwriter can do...
what is Rise of Skywalker after they butchered Luke in Last Jedi
They've learned nothing since then obviously. If anything, they've doubled down.
Theres no bottom to an abyss
lmao
when the dead horse begins to rot.
1-6. That’s canon and that is all I’ll need at this point.
It’s okay to throw in clone wars and bad batch as well
That was a great question at the end, because Star Wars was killed for some time now, I'm just interested in the comments and to see how low it can go. And it keeps going down. Not going to waste time viewing this new nail in the coffin. Thanks for another great review

The drinking the poison thing reminded me of an old story about Churchill. Apparently it goes as “If I were married to you, I’d put poison in your coffee,” Lady Astor once famously remarked to Winston Churchill. “If I were married to you,” he replied, “I’d drink it.”
It is not an old story i just watched it in a recently added documentary about Hitler and Churchill.
@@user-oc5bm2wy1i dude what? so you think when you heard it last determines the age of the story not from when it originates. Interesting..
@@user-oc5bm2wy1i You having watched it on a "recently added documentary" doesn't make it a "recent story" lol. The story is old because it's more than a 100 years old (if it even actually happened), with the oldest record of the event being the 1900, the actual year, not the century.
Ah, the Winston Churchill/Lady Astor stories. My favorite is -- Lady Astor: "Mr. Churchill, you are very drunk!" Churchill: "Yes I am. But you, madam, are very ugly. And tomorrow I'll be sober."

They never said the twins were created by the force. In fact they implied their mother used some other means, possibly much darker.
Remember when Jeremy used to put on a Star Wars blanket for a cape 10 years ago? This is what the slow death of a true fan looks like: Not angry, just tired.
That was the whole reason for Anakin's fall. Qui-Gon was setup to be the father he needed to shape him into the savior the jedi needed, but while Obi-Wan tried to live up to that he was too young, he was more like an elder brother to Anakin when he needed a father.
The nerve of Qui-Gon for not being ok after getting stabbed with a lightsaber, unlike like Sabine and the bad chick in the Obi-Wan show.
@@elig2134 Yep, almost as dead as being hit with a knife like in this show.
Fact
Feelings for Star Wars aside, and just as a show, it felt cobbled together by amateurs. It was overstuffed, poorly paced and executed, and the acting and dialogue from the young girls was cringe inducing.
When a 9 minute review by Jeremy is better than 3 sequel films and every shitty star wars show disney has put out so far.....
"At Blackrock we are forcing behaviours" - Laurence D. Fink
I would love to post the video of him saying that on every social media app!
Reverse psychology is a technique involving the assertion of a belief or behavior that is opposite to the one desired, with the expectation that this approach will encourage the subject of the persuasion to do what is actually desired.
---Example: Assert Marxist ideologies in such a way you will force people to reject them in favor of Conservative ideologies in retaliation.
A Controlled Opposition is a protest movement that is actually being led by government agents. Nearly all governments in history have employed this technique to trick and subdue their adversaries, notably Vladimir Lenin who said, "The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves."
So the pendulum swings, now violently, now slowly; and every institution not only carries within it the seeds of its own dissolution, but prepares the way for its most hated rival.
William Ralph Inge
"Democracy and the Future" The Atlantic Monthly (March 1922)
Step one of the "Four Steps for Communist Ideological Subversion", Yuri Bezmenov, 1985.
Demoralization - this is a process which can take about 15-30 years to perform (a generation). *During this stage, the moral fibre and integrity of the country is put into question, thereby creating doubt in the minds of the people. To do so, manipulation of the media and academia is required to influence young people.* As the younger generation embraces new values, such as Marxism and Leninism, the older generation slowly loses control simply through attrition. Again, true facts no longer matter during this stage, but rather creating perceptions are of paramount importance.
Communism and Religion
Abolished - all religious and metaphysics is rejected. Engels and Lenin agreed that religion was a drug or “spiritual booze” and must be combated. *To them, atheism put into practice meant a “forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions.”*
---Atheism and Judaism are obviously not going to have all of the same morals, values and ethics as each other. Things the Torah condemns (homosexuality, shedding of innocent blood, which would include abortion, and transvestite/transgenderism) are praised by the Liberal Marxists while they condemn those who are against such things. Good becomes evil, evil becomes good in the Liberal Marxist worldview. This is why the good Jedi are seen as possibly being evil, and the evil Sith are possibly the good guys. Biblically, men are the leaders of nations and heads of the households, so naturally these Liberal Marxist feminists need to demonize men and elevate women (especially lesbians) every chance they get.
Eliminating American exceptionalism, fundamental change of national identity, structural deconstruction of foundational principles, elimination of religion. Embedding a new societal design upon the psyche of generations through ideological academia, peer pressure by elites upon academics and society to convince that prior values were inherently flawed, racist, prejudiced etc. National identity is diluted with aspersions toward historical references. *National History is re-written, re-defined, and molded to fit the new intended behavioral model and create the new values.*
---Star Wars is an established IP that is a huge part of our social, cultural and individual history here in the United States.
From BBC Arts:
In Munich, Adolf Hitler staged two exhibitions which defined the way we think about modern art. The Great German Art show displayed the artists he approved of, the Degenerate Art show displayed the artists he despised. In these two exhibitions, mounted side by side in adjacent galleries, the battle lines were drawn between traditionalism and modernism. It’s a battle that’s still being fought today.
Do you like art that’s realistic and reassuring? Or do you prefer art that’s experimental or disturbing? Maybe you like a bit of both - in which case, you’re like a lot of people who went to see these shows.
The Nazis wanted people to see both shows, but they didn’t want people to make up their own minds. The idea was to see the Degenerate Art show, and see how German art had been debased - and then see the Great German Art show, and see how the Nazis has redeemed it.
---Similarly, Conservatives want us to compare the traditional art to the modern art and come to the conclusion that Liberal Marxists have degenerated it, the conclusion being that "Everything that turns woke/Marxist turns to crap" and me must return to the traditional ways.
Larry Fink, and Orthodox Jew, is using Blackrock funding to assert "progressive" Liberal (Marxist) ideologies. Progressive Liberalism is fundamentally opposed to Orthodox Judaism and the Torah (Old Testament) and Talmud. Being an Orthodox Jew, what would be the goal of asserting Marxist ideologies? Leading the opposition to bring about their downfall.

I'm not watching the show just watching Jeremy watch the show like he's my Disney human shield.
Qui Gon’s reaction to hearing “there was no father” makes a lot more sense now. He was disappointed to learn she was batting for the same team.
Even with just that opening “Hi”, you know this episode did a number on him.
Remember the good old days when Jeremy would wear a Star Wars curtain as a cape and sing “Star Wars, nothing but Star Wars”
The good old days
I stoped watching Star Wars when I was watching the second of the sequel trilogy when I realized that I was playing games on my phone during the movie. I packed up my PC and haven’t bothered watching any since.
Before the dark times, before the Disney Empire.
That was the moment I stopped as well.
That's bs. I'm so sick of these dumb comments of ppl saying they all collectively stopped liking Disney star wars after last Jedi. That's bs. Most ppl that hated on last Jedi were found to be supporting alt right movements and right wing media. So the real reason you don't like this series is because it stars a black woman and you get intimidated by them.
A lot of us stopped caring after Last Jedi, that movie was so dogshit someone like me who grew up watching the VHS tapes that my dad bought since I was 3 back in the 90's, played dozens of star wars video games, had tons of toys, drew goofy comics of prequel battles just gave up on the franchise with that shitty Last jedi movie.
I'm one of the ones that just watches people talk about it, because I just can't be bothered anymore.
@@mania4270 Grow up.
The disappointed "Hi" at the beginning. 😂😂😂
Jeremy is one of my favorite critics, he is one of those who havent been sold out to hollywood or afraid to give honest opinion
Clear cut example of what happens when you don’t hire writers based on their talent
Or you have to hire a group of writers in the WGA who just finished a season of Riverdale and need work. I know they don’t know anything about Star Wars but they need work
False, they hire writers and step in to change everything to fit their personal agenda. It's like hiring somebody to paint your house and you walk outside with spray paint and start going crazy on it while they are working.
Have you seen the videos of DEI pilots landing planes? OMG it's hysterical but also terrifying.
I imagine the writers of this show probably have bright pink or purple hairs, facial piercings, overweight but body positive and most importantly pansexuals.
@@KanoogIt’s not a “personal agenda” it’s just bad writing
jeremy, i literally have not once thought about watching the acolyte, but i just cant resist jeremy jahns content, so thank you for watching this show so we dont have to

The power of number two is strong with this one.
I watch CZcams content regarding Star Wars rather than actual Star Wars for the sole reason that the CZcams content is 1000 times more creative, thought provoking and entertaining than the actual Star Wars content itself

Born in 94, loved star wars as a kid, loved the sequels but also the originals and games and comics and lego. Really enjoyed Episode 7 and Rogue One, after that I felt like it all just kinda went downhill. Although Solo was also cool imo (even though I hated the drab colors most of the movie). Watched Mandalorian but that's it from all the shows. I do want to check out Andor since I heard it's good. Beside that I'm kinda overwhelmed by all the other shows and I've also heard very mixed things. Don't really have the time or interest so I watch youtube videos about those.
Fav Star Wars experience of all time will probably forever be KOTOR 1 & 2.

@@SpiderLynkCope
@@SpiderLynksaying forced is hyperbolic I’ll grant you that, but when it’s the only Star Wars content coming out, that’s what people are going to watch. Mind you, because it is Star Wars and no other reason. A lot of the frustration comes from Disney having all of Star Wars to play with and this is the slop they give us.
@@SpiderLynk Not entirely true - you can't know it's terrible until you've seen it. At which point, you can't unsee it.
So, no one is forced to CONTINUE watching would be more accurate.
To be clear, I don't hate the show but the errors it's making are kind of ridiculous for this kind of budget. Fire in space? Twins born of the Force? Jedi being bad guys? At $3 million, that would've been forgivable but not at $180 million. At $180 million, you can hire 5 full-time people to vet every script for any logical or lore inconsistency to make sure everything works perfectly with both canon and in-show logic.
This is very much like when GoT had a Starbucks cup on set - it's too expensive of a show to get away with that.
Keep in mind this show costs more than:
1. Game of Thrones
2. House of the Dragon
3. Fallout
4. Star Wars (1977) and The Empire Strikes Back (1980) together (adjusted for inflation!)
5. Any one of the prequel trilogy movies
6. 3/4 of the Andor show (which had 12 episodes, not 8)
7. 1/3 of the Force Awakens (the most expensive movie ever made)
8. 3/4 of Rogue One's budget (which was a hot mess - the budget/marketing that is)
@@MrBrock314 budgets are made up it’s not ur $ why do u care omg?
It’s really depressing to see how far Star Wars has fallen…
As a non-star wars fan this has been great. Always bored by movie news when star wars was all the rage and hyped up for weeks. Very good to see it nosedive in recent years. Well deserved for not being for me - selfish I know, but Idc
Been that way since 1999
@@chopchop1437I mean I get the point about how overhyped it is, but just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean no one else should be able to. But you’re defo right that Star Wars is overexposed under Disney and now they put out far too much low effort content.
@@Videogamelover58 I didn't like the prequels that much either but after the Disney era I look back and those movies are awesome now XD. Who knows maybe the plan if for something worst to come after Disney that will makes us look at this current era like it was awesome too.
@@krlos2588 I've always been a prequel defender.
Garbage dialog, nice effects, good plot.
Would watch again.

Can't wait to see the "hey kid you wanna hold it" gun spin in all sorts of out of context places
7:05 "This big fire breaks out and Osha is like, 'What have you done?!'" My apologies for stopping and laughing so hard right there - I had no idea she was named after the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). I forgot for a moment what video I was watching.
They should've named her twin Fema, for "Federal Emergency Management Agency."

It's actually more woke ... Osha is a shortened version of a name for an African goddess.... or at least that's where I thought it came from lol
Man, Jeremy and Star Wars is like an abusive relationship:
Adores the Original Trilogy with all his heart.
Despises the Prequels - breakup.
Loves The Force Awakens and Rogue One - happily back together again!
*_LOATHES_* The Last Jedi, Solo and The Rise of Skywalker - breakup.
Enjoys The Mandalorian, The Clone Wars Season 7 and The Book of Boba Fett - okay, comfortably back together again.
Hates Obi-Wan Kenobi - breakup.
Actually likes Andor - okay, giving it another chance.
Hates Ahsoka and The Acolyte - breakup.
Book of Boba Fett was literally one of their worst shows. How would it make a fan happy fr?
He has good taste, but the hot passion keeps brining him back
Actually, Andor released before Obi-Wan
@@domesticdragonwaffle
Yeah, but Jeremy watched Andor afterwards, probably because he was avoiding it because it’s Star Wars.
I believe it's like that for a lot of us. It is very painful to like SW as much as you do, knowing how bad over half of the content is XD
Can we talk about Jeremy's Qui-Gon's impression haha too good
Star Wars adults have become so tiring... I'd honestly rather hang out with Harry Potter Adults AT Hogwarts than have a conversation about Star Wars with SW Adults🤣
I still see Jeremy's face when he saw the force awakens trailer every time he reviews a star wars movie.
Yeah... : (
That smile. That damned smile...
The reason no one knows what jedi actually do in this era is because the writers of this show are actually so uninterested in world building, or even just star wars lore and practicality
They are also staying away from the council likely coz Yoda is grandmaster and is wiser than any of them, he likely has other top ranking masters along side him, many likely male who make the female characters looks pathetic along side them, so they just refuse to show the Jedi council and have the men that are in this show castrated morons, one of the male Jedi is obese for gods sake, and another is a balding neck beard
Unlike Andor. Still the crown jewel of Star Wars Shows.
Im watching through rn and im pretty impressed, if anything though I think the atmosphere is more fit for bladerunner than the star wars universe. Nonetheless, its nice to see a recent star wars show made with an actual clear vision
Corporate mind. Andor and Mandalorian (first two seasons) wre clearly made by actual fans with respect for the franchise. Mando started getting cameos which the fan base celebrated cuz we could tell the creators did it with care but Disney had their head inflated once again and chose to expend as much preexisting content as possible without care. I really hope Favreau’s Mando movie is able to tie this all together well cuz the franchise is in desperate need of it.
I thought Anakin's " no father " thing wasn't literal- but a figure of speech
Thank you Jeremy for doing what I couldn’t
Jeremy: * comments on Thrawn and Heir to the Empire *
Me: PREACH, BROTHER! 🙌
Question: is he talking about Thrawn in Disney Star Wars in general? Both Rebels and the Ahsoka series?
To me the stupidest thing Disney did is not just use Thrawn Trilogy for movies 7-9.
@@cr-pol I've still gotta read them. I have books 1 and 3, but not 2
@@collierblake24 In heir to the empire he was a force to be reckoned with, in Rebels he was smart enough that they needed dues ex space whales to throw him off enough to win, Ahsoka he puts way to much faith in magic and dark side wielding strangers instead of just putting actual effort into fighting Ahsoka. if order 66 gives us anything about how to kill jedi is that he had plenty of resources to do it but that would be a crappy ending for Ahsoka.
@@collierblake24 Heir to the Empire was before Disney owned Star Wars
“That’s not how identical twins work!” - Han Solo, in another universe.
honestly I think it's like dathomir where they use male slaves for breeding, but I guess the mom had her eggs fertilized inside the other woman for some reason, thus making sense that one "carried" them but the other "created" them. Just a theory since these women got to come from SOMEWHERE. So you have a surrogate mother which fixes the dialog, the male slave explains why no father, the and them being TWINS explains the specialty
Maybe the showrunner's intention IS to show a less positive side of the Jedi. A result of the absence of threats to balance them.
This is how all the reviews should have been since 2015's Star Wars: Episode VII-The Force Awakens and onward. Everyone got nostalgia-baited and fooled. Lastly, Disney's run with the Star Wars and Marvel franchises was never great in the first place. The path to suckiness was evident from the beginning.
After years of hope and then disappointment I cancelled my Disney+ last year and hung up my Star Wars "Hat". After watching this, I'm really happy that I did 🤘
I don't pay for any streaming services anyway, so I'm not missing anything.
Honestly, Andor is the only live-action Star Wars series worth checking out
Id say the mandaloriam too
Andor is the only one that doesn't feel like a comic book or cutscene.
@@sebastianrodas5469 Mandalorian turned into a big nothing burger. Zero depth, zero characterization.
@@officialthomasjames thats true, i ment to say first 2 seasons hahaha
Daniel, you mean the Mon Mothma series?
Seriously mate, I watch your reviews to save me time or wasting my time with these dead shows and movies. You've saved me and a lot of others a lot of money over the years. So you'll always be my go to channel for reviews.
Plus we like the Same whiskys. Man after my own heart. 🎉😂
Thank you for your review and time watching this shit for us. You're a life saver mate. Can't wait for your next video mate.

Jeremy suffers through insufferable slop so we don’t have to. Truly the move of all time.
To answer that last question, I watch CZcams content about Star Wars. I was a die hard fanboy until Rise which killed my fandom. But I'll still watch the good shows like Mandalorian and Andor.
Im reserving judgement until I can see the whole story. Thats the only grace im willing to give.
I do agree with the sentiment that Star Wars is now more studio fanfic than consistent storytelling.
We'll see. Id also like to know its timeline and involvement of Dave Filoni.
He gave the lightsaber to the young girl because lightsaber don’t kill anyone, on the other way if the Jedi gave her a small knife, that would be really dangerous
Remember that this is Disney.
Rey touches a blade and says that it has done horrible things.
While she wields the same lightsaber Anakin used to slaughter an entire village and later a room full of young children.
Light sabers don't kill people jedi kill people 😮
@@alexfoster1309 People kill people. Weapons are simply the means, while stuff like religion, race, ideology, greed, etc are the excuses.
@@lisboah We know, he's making a joke.
Headland actually stated this.

@@deadnorth8648 No just stating Facts
@@deadnorth8648Andor was amazing, though, and very unlike Star Wars.
It was. Then people thought "What if we expand the universe?" and then that died.
I actually like the Jedis portrayal in this. People hold onto the idea that the Jedi are infallible and perfectly fair but the whole point of the Prequels and then Hermit Luke was to show how flawed their ways were and one flaw is that they definitely went around taking kids away from their family and from a young age told them to suppress their emotions
So...that point has already been made more than once before. The only addition here is to assert that the Jedi have _always_ been morally defective.
I moved from watching Star Wars to watching youtube content about Star Wars a few years ago.
Red background just like his The Last Jedi review. It's like poetry. It rhymes.
Red background is the secret to all this.
It's the key to the whole thing
turns out he's better at building a consistent lore than Star Wars
It's gonna be great. It's gonna be great.
Jeremy is a funnier character than we ever had.
Dang when Jeremy Jahns has an angry title, you know it's bad.
The whole coven was a giant OSHA violation.
Jeremy is pretty unbiased.. if he’s saying this.. I 100% believe him.
I honestly don't know why people still pretend to like Star Wars anymore.
Andor and Bad Batch are redeemable. Not much else.
The same reason people use heroin
Hope springs eternal
The only good thing are the Jedi games.
theres more good these days than bad. I don't know why people like you pretend its all bad
