that is INSANELY ironic coming from someone who defends a show that is objectively badly written and the only way to enjoy it is to genuinely have brain damage.
I remember fans desperately trying to make sense of how the fire spread through the whole stone fortress, predicting that someone must’ve sabotaged the compound to rig an explosion & that it could not have been due to Mae’s tiny lamp alone. Fans were effortlessly coming up with better stories to explain away stupid scenes bc it was hard to accept that the show was THIS awful & they figured there must be more to the story that is being hidden from the audience until a later reveal. But it turns out that there was no twist to the fire, the writers are just that ret*rded. 😂 It’s so depressing that mostly all of the fan theories I saw were 100X better than the actual story we were given. I also read a theory before episode 3 about the twins actually being one person because Mae & Osha hadn’t been shown in the same scene yet & the one scene that included them both was oddly shot so fans thought the writers were providing us with a clue & that Osha was force projecting as Mae while she was locked up. “There MUST be something good here,” fans thought. “There’s NO WAY the show is actually this sh*t.” But it turns out…it was! No twists, it’s just sh*t.
Tell me about it. I’m laughing at it looking back in editing but while it’s going on it’s terrifying. But hey, more bad shows coming so we’ll cover those too.
While I do think this was shit, I do have to point out that Han did say "Then I'll see you in Hell." just before leaving to save Luke in Empire Strikes Back, in response to a rebel saying that he would freeze and that he wouldn't make it far. At least, it was implied. I forget what he said exactly to Han.
No you’re right he did! Delivery is really important, and even though colloquialism rips me out of the immersion normally, ESB handled it well. This episode… did not.
@@TunezCottage I do think it’s nice to see main plot servants die, I liked Sols actor, and Yords neck snapping was sick. Those are the only things this show did well. Sol and Sexy Sith(can’t remember his name) should have both fell in half instead of his lightsaber being destroyed that would have been sick af.
@@skully5063 The show did some things right and daring to kill characters is definitely one of them. It also didn't expect us to care about Yord, which you can't when you've done nothing to build him as a character. I did feel like they were going for an emotional send off with Sol but it didn't quite work for me either. I wish it did.
In the german dubbed version of Empire strikes back, Han Solo says (retranslated) "Then we see us in Hell", after the Rebel Officer warns him, that his Tauntaun will be frozen to death when he is going out to search Luke, back on Hoth. Dont know if thats also the case in the english language version. How ever - Acolyte... Jesus....
That’s one of the reasons I like to watch things in their original language because mistranslation with colloquial terms always occur, even in fictional worlds with made up ones. It’s in the eye of the beholder.
I think she was talking to us, you know, when we have to watch it. Hell. I'm sure our actual hell would be a walk in the park to watching this steaming pile of trash.
It’s a joke if you consider the 2 sec shot of the back of Yodas head before the credits of the finale of a show that might never see a second season a spoiler
Definition of spoiler: a description of an important plot development in a television show, film, or book which if previously known may reduce surprise or suspense for a first-time viewer or reader. Now, where would you say this fits? Is it important? No. Will it reduce surprise? Depends on if you know Star Wars or not. If you do then you know he's around in this era. If not, then you might as well conclude that's Yaddle and not Yoda. It doesn't qualify.
I'm not a big fan of this show apart from liking the actor who played Sol, but the constant crying from these people. Do your own fan fic instead if you're going to whine about it so much.
We don't want to have to write our own Star Wars shows just to enjoy the series. Disney spent the money on Star Wars and on this show specifically and this is the best they can do. Of course people are gonna complain.
Funny, this show only has to kinds of ratings: 5 stars or 1 star. Nothing else. At this point it's a political battle, it's not entertainement anymore. The woke minds have to give the Acolyte 5 stars otherwise the right wing facist will win...It's so much BS, no one care for quality entertainment anymore.
Don’t get why political ideology has to be involved either. The world doesn’t revolve around the US. I mean the other day someone called me a chud which is kind of funny because I’m from Sweden… right-wing extremists here would still be called left leaning in the states. It’s heavily skewed left here regardless of where you’re at politically. And I’ve made it very clear I’m judging the writing, nothing else, but that gets lost in the mess that is the fan wars. It is messy though, I’ll give you that but tv and film have been through stuff like this before. The hays code in the 50s’ neutered movies and in the 80s’ no one wanted to show profanity or sexually explicit content like that of the 70s. Out of both we had some of the best tv and film to ever be made when a few directors and producers decided to go against the grain and that’ll happen again. It’s the cycle of life.
@@jordanthompson8268 I totally respect your outlook on this matter. However, The Original Fans and I agree that The Acolyte is truly great storytelling and the finale was the cherry on top.
So many people missing the point... Tall tales and mythology are not supposed to be coherent stories, mske perfect sense or even always be entertaining. Sometimes frightening, disturbjng, or just provoking. Don't even TRY to tell me that mythology has to make sense all the time and mythology is what Star Wars IS
It’s a good thing this isn’t Star Wars then (because it isn’t), and once you stop coping and face up to it then you’ll realize we deserve better as fans than the drivel we’re getting. The fact that this passes as writing on any level is absurd.
@@TunezCottage lol, maybe if you let go of your hate and.... Wait. My bad. Hate is all. NOTHING can be enjoyed in the modern world. I bet you hated the season 2 finale of The Mandalorian too, right? It wasn't what YOU wanted so it sucked. That is the new norm. FYI? It didn't suck
What is the point of The Acolyte then? I don't even feel the need to point out that most stories, including the first 6 Star Wars movies are coherent and logically constructed.
You just defended the show by telling me it doesn’t need to be coherent to qualify as Star Wars, way I see it you didn’t reason your way to that opinion of yours so exactly how do you expect anyone to reason you out of it? The majority think you’re wrong, it’s on you to figure out why that is.
@@TunezCottage yeah, only haters are allowed to have double standards. I get it. I don't care if you dislike something. That is your right, until it gets taken from you anyway. My problem is that people screamed that the prequels and then Clone Wars 'killed' Star Wars. Um... uh... no. And as bad as this seems? Four words- 'Star Wars Holiday Special' If you think THIS is the worst, you don't know bad. This is nowhere close.
lmao pathetic little manbaby right here
that is INSANELY ironic coming from someone who defends a show that is objectively badly written and the only way to enjoy it is to genuinely have brain damage.
That's a billshit statement to say that anyone who enjoys this TV show that YOU hate as having brain damage😂

Yeah, I mean the first red flag was when we realized most fans know more than the showrunner about Star Wars. And they gave her 180 million dollars...
"Then I'll see you in Hell"
- Han Solo (The Empire Strikes Back)
I have been laughing so much at this show. It is hilarious. It is like a spoof of a parody of Spaceballs.
Tell me about it. I’m laughing at it looking back in editing but while it’s going on it’s terrifying. But hey, more bad shows coming so we’ll cover those too.

So you, random person, have you cancelled your disney membership already?
Don’t have an account
Star Wars Holiday Special.......nothing tops it, but The Acolyte is a at the bottom.
Definitely going to be watching that on the channel soon!
9:37 BioWare's Knights of the Old Republic : Revan's memory has been wiped by the Jedi Council so he forgot he turned to the dark side
I remembered after. It didn’t quite click into place when it happened because when Bastila Shan did it to Revan it looked like he had a seizure.

Tell me about it... Still recovering from seeing that

It sure felt like it.
I feel so happy for Lee Jung-jae to be out of this shitshow. Not that I expect after this clusterfuck to have a second season.
Yeah he was really giving it his all and learning English enough to perform after only four months! Super impressed by that.
"See you in hell" is a rip off from han solo, he said that in Empire strikes back when told his tauntaun would free before he coudl get back.
*freeze
*could
Also: no, it is not a rip-off; “see you in hell” is a pretty common phrase, actually.
Sounds like you need to watch more TV if you think this is the worst out of everything.
Can never watch enough
