    I am done. Disney doesn't have to worry about me posting a bad review. I am canceling my Hulu and Disney subscriptions. Disney has made it clear that I am not welcome, and they have no desire to produce products that appeal to me. I wish George had never sold Star Wars to them. I kept hoping they would reverse course and turn from the dark side. Why they wanted to buy an IP and why they had no desire to produce a product that appealed to its core audience is beyond me.

      Yet that is what Disney believes. Reva was the best example for that. Fact is, you can turn back from the dark side. But the consequences of your actions and your guilt remain, even if you heal yourself. Vader suffered the consequences by destroying his family and the death of Padme.

      @elmermedina1713 Před 14 dny +39

      ​@nopejhonson958 Darth Vader didn't see himself as the good guy. He knew he was evil and considered himself irredeemable. Even the act of saving his son was out of love, not out of a desire to rejoin the Jedi or the light side. It was a last minute, desperate attempt to save his son, nothing more. Anakin probably wanted to die, seeing as he wouldn't be forgiven, was tossed aside by Palpatine in favor of his son, knew he would die if he betrayed his master, his suit was irreparable once he tossed Palpatine to his doom, and he'd Bern living off of the dark side and his hatred, which he finally let go of.

      Another reason Elio is in danger, Doctor Who and Acoltye make it obvious they will slip a pronoun nonsense thing in it, if not multiple. Which is going to be nonsense on another level because the aliens shouldnt even be speaking the same languages to each other, and certainly not to Elio. I'm sure there will be some kind of way they all speak what sounds like the same tongue to one another, but won't actually be.

    So they're retconning his age, position, and even the lifespans of the cereans (originally slightly shorter than the average human's), just so they can make the Jedi look like even bigger idiots for thinking the Sith were extinct in the Phantom Menace.

I had forgotten all about it, but the idea that was centralto the first 6 films is crazy - how was it central to original 3 when we didn't know about it until 1999. Also, I said way back in like 2006 that the prequels were so bad that they weren't even cannon - you can only imagine what I think now. I was sort of a super fan, and now I'm not really a fan at all, I just watch these youtube videos to mourn the death of something I once loved.

I came back and everyone hated the star wars prequels. I saw Revenge of the Sith, and thought it was great. So with all that said, I had to cherry pick content for my kids from the prequel, so that they could still appreciate the OG trilogy and the overall story for what it is.
      But I absolutely agree, until you mentioned it I had totally forgot that I had the same instant reaction when I heard of it.

    The sith master is going to be Osha and Mae's mother, the head which from episode 3. It showed her being in the episode last night on the IMDB page for this episode and now it's gone so if you check now you won't see that actress on the list anymore.

    Check episode 3 when the twins enter the fortress and count how many other children there are playing in the street.
    Around there you will also see the spice cream vendor. Check what they pay her with.
    The young blonde jedi girl didn't know even the most basic things about Osha...even though she moments later says that she has read her file.
    etc, etc, etc. This is why the masked person might be their mother. If they were competent writers with an ok script, it would be the guy they trapped. But this is neither competent nor an OK script, meaning it could be anybody just teleporting there because they want it to be someone else.
    You can't trust clues if the director doesn't pay attention to detail nor script breaking logic, because let's face it. someone new getting there within 10 minutes of the guy being trapped is exactly the kind of poor writing that this script oozes.
    Which by the way is what makes it feel so bad. If you can't trust things to make logical sense, like seeing that there are kids playing in the street when the twins enter and then minutes later hear them say that they are the only children there then it just makes you subconsciously dislike it because the script is is lying to you. You know that there are more kids there, you saw them. I dare say that the lady handing out free spice cream for a living wouldn't do so if there weren't kids there. It does not make logical sense.
    The only way to make any reasonable predictions is to think like a radical feminist. Women are good and powerful, men are oppressing them. Ergo, the good guys will be women. Men will die. Power is everything so therefore we will make the most powerful people women. I would not be surprised if this is the start of Mae going good. Don't be surprised if the bad guy in the cliffhanger ends up being beaten by the twins mother. That could actually happen with this level of writing.

    Smylo Ren will turn out to be Leslie Headlamp's Wife the Green Lady Jedi Boss. It would be to stupidly obvious that it would be one of the 2 mother Witches, stupid if it was the Ezra Miller look alike character as we have no backstory or motivation for his character to kill the 4 Jedi. The only other character it could be is the Green Jedi Boss with some yet unknown motivation put in as a twist ending.

    Ep4 bad writing elements (positive stuff below);
    They lost Basil?
    Yord asking Osha for the gun but 2min later is "concerned" for her safety?
    Killing a bug is bad?
    Yord is no longer goofy?
    Mae has a late change of heart once deep in the forest?
    Oshawa has a change of heart after repeatedly saying she wasn't going to join the mission?
    Jedi wookee found dead in his chair, he was totally surprised and didn't fight?
    Why did it smell bad in the forest at some point, the bugs?
    Basil is a they?
    Positive stuff:
    Forest was nice.
    The costumes are nice.
    Yellow lightsabers.
    Basil is a nice character.
