He is not "some single guy", he's a member of Council with full access to Order's archives.
Its more funny when you bring in legends and note there was a jedi almost 200 years before the movies that tried to warn the jedi the sith were still alive and using a format called the rule of 2 and everyone laughed him off like he was crazy.
BIG OOOOF!!!!!.... I'm not trying to throw shade at Theory here... I am usually a fan of his videos, but Theory is completely misreading or misunderstanding the article and the journalist's points. THE TWO OF THEM ARE ACTUALLY AGREEING on the same points, but Theory has misinterpreted what he is saying... Examples:
The journalist says in POINT ONE, "Just because the Sith were not around en masse like in the Old Republic days, it does NOT MEAN they did not exist and were hiding in the shadows." The journalist is basically saying, "The Sith were hiding in the shadows"... same as Theory.
In POINT TWO, the journalist is criticizing A COMMENT THAT AN OBSERVER of the trailer made, (the Cantina1234 commenter, whose comment is shown within the article), NOT THE JEDI WITHIN THE STAR WARS UNIVERSE, and NOT KI-ADI-MUNDI as Theory mistakenly interpreted the journalists words to mean.
In POINT THREE, the journalist is again REFERENCING THE SINGULAR OPINION(S) OF ANY ONE COMMENTOR (again, probably also the Cantina1234 comment, but also applicable to anyone single person's opinion), however THEORY AGAIN MISINTERPRETED HIS WORDS to be criticizing the in-universe character of Ki-Adi-Mundi, which he was not.
Sadly, a misunderstanding like this just bolsters and amplifies the Star Wars fan base's frustrations and negative reactions to recent, current and future Star Wars projects. Admittedly, we often have legitimate reasons and examples from the state of the SW franchise in recent years to be frustrated, disappointed, maybe even a little mad, and certainly to be wary about future projects, but in this particular case, in regards to this particular article and this journalist's words... he's not 'the enemy'. In truth, he and Theory are not disagreeing here, and the journalist is actually trying to offer a glimmer of hope by showing us that the set-up for 'The Acolyte', at least as shown in the trailer, is NOT in contradiction to established Star Wars canon. Of course, whether the show ends up being a success and embraced by Star Wars fans remains to be seen, and we should reserve final judgement until we actually watch it, no matter how discouraged we have been from other SW movies and shows.
My hopes would be that, if Theory sees my comment, or any of the others I've seen that point out his misunderstanding of the article, he would re-read the article to better understand the journalist's intended meaning, and then come forth with an acknowledgement of a mistake made. We all make mistakes and misinterpret things, (including the HUNDREDS of Theory video viewers who either also misunderstood the article or didn't bother to read the journalist's words for themselves... ), but when you have a platform with an audience as big as Theory's, and the power of influencing literally MILLIONS of people... the right thing to do is to set right an unintended wrong.
A member of the Jedi council who had no idea of the massive anti-Jedi conspiracy rolling out while he was sitting around on his HC ottoman. Yup, his judgement and opinion are definitely infallible.
Order not Orden. Please fix. Thats confusing I google orden archives to see what the hell that was lol
@@cald1421 sure. It's called Orden in my native language.

The Sith weren't laying low?
What did they think _Phantom_ meant in "The Phantom Menace?"
Force Ghost Slimer
Time stamp on when they said “the Sith weren’t laying low” please? Can’t find it unless ur making it up.
They probably thought it meant in the closet.
@@corruptsion3725The implication with the way this series is being advertised is that there will be Sith featured in it, which, unless it’s Tenebrous and Plagueis secretly killing Jedi or people trying to figure out their Sith identities without anyone figuring it out, makes zero sense.
@@paradox2210 Yh but it’s just being implied that the sith aren’t laying low, we don’t know until the show comes out. Can’t take implications as fact until we actually see it. That’s why I don’t understand why he quoted “the sith weren’t laying low”, cause I can’t find it in this article, hence why I asked for time stamp.
The only way The Acolyte could break canon is if anyone see's a Sith and stays alive to tell others about the Sith's appearance. Theory has covered this in his other videos. So that means, EVERY SINGLE JEDI WHO HAS SEEN, THE SITH OR THE DARK SIDE USER, NEEDS TO DIE. So in that case, no one would be alive to tell the Jedi that, there is indeeed, a Sith alive.
And there would need to be some kind of cover up. If a bunch of key Jedi just go missing there would be some kind of investigation. Psychometry would immediately reveal what happened so it's gonna have to be layered. I have strong doubts on that happening
@@jordan6254 That's true, I was thinking about that too. If a bunch of Jedi go missing and they end up finding them, they see lightsaber wounds on them, that would also be a hint that a lightsaber user killed them. I also do think that someone with psychometry could just solve the whole thing if they find the dead bodies of the Jedi. But keep in mind, psychometry is not a common power. Very few Jedi possess this power and actually know how to use it consistantly.
@@jordan6254 Cover up would be way too in line with the Jedi. I mean it isn't like they shouldn't have known about the nameless prior to Loden getting leveled. Since the whole conflict with the path century prior and Jedi on Dalna letting Marda go.
The Acolyte: A Rogue One situation but instead of passing the vital information successfully onward, the entire show characters die before they can tell anyone.
I agree ✅
Dude, I know it sucks but they have destroyed Star Wars and will blame everyone who doesn’t agree. So sad bro.
Rey Skywalker is the real chosen one. She fulfilled the prophecy

@@kevinvassagohaha funny
@@dopeastro If I'm wrong, then why is there a book called "Rey Skywalker, the chosen one."
It’s not that the Sith have been extinct for millennia, it’s that the Jedi THOUGHT they were extinct. So either way, by the end of this show, not a single living Jedi should have had any interaction with a Sith whatsoever
Keyword being "living" cause again, as far as the Jedi were concerned, the Sith were dead and gone.
Who’s to say there is even a Sith in the show?
@@bradleyc6564 red light saber in the trailer and using the force... at the end of the fcking trailer holy sht bro lol.. do you even watch star wars god dayum bro did you even watch the video?
@@dandyjandon4231 Red lightsabers aren't exclusive to Sith. Sith is an ideology like Jedi, being a dark side force user doesn't automatically make you a Sith.
However, the show is meant to go into Sith so likely that is one or a Dark Side user on his way to meet the current Sith Lord or is the current lord.
@@dandyjandon4231He could be a dark side user not a full on sith. The sith at the time were Tenebrous and Plagueis.
Every Star Wars fan knews that. They remained in the shadows till the right time came. This is why Sith have won and manage to destroy the Jedi and Republic. Their whole operation is based on this. They won because for a 1000 years Sith were considered destroyed. Their whole 1 master and 1 student gimmick is based on that. Thats not just a "one guys opinion". This their whole gimmick. This is why Sith are so cool and different from any regular evil, dark side faction.
This is dumb.
Star Wars is more machine now than great films, twisted and evil .

“Yeah but I hate those dudes so”
"And I don't give a crap about any of them, your point"
@@Angry_Peanut_52 I see though the lies of the Jedi
I wouldn’t say “no one” was complaining about the Asian and black leads. It’s just the way they were complaining about it. I remember quite a few people in your trailer reaction stream pointing out that “there were no white men” and I think that’s possibly where that stems from.
Yeah exactly lol. Maybe not specifically about the Asian and black leads, but those live comments about the white men were everywhere. Probably Ryan’s casual viewers lol
It's Theory's job to keep pretending this never happens. There will never be a day when he actually disowns them. Instead he provides a shield for them and says "well no one is saying that", as if his gaslighting will work on the people who see it clear as day
Theory said no one is saying woke, but people in his own comments section is literally saying it lol.
What does he gain by pretending that no one is saying these things? That's my question to him
.
were there white men? if not, why is it wrong to point it out? I thought representation is important?
Many defenders are saying, "Oh, well that just means all the Jedi who discover the Sith characters in the show will be killed."
But just look at the Obi-Wan Kenobi show...
After the series ended, the Empire clearly knows about the connection between Bail Organa and Obi-Wan.
Disney does not care about canon and hire people who also don't care about the lore.
Any cohesive story started and ended with Episodes 1-6.
You do realize that the empire did not exist at the same period as the acolyte until after revenge of the sith.
@simtonporestudio4427 he does realize that. He's just pointing out the blatant disregard for canon and even just for basic logic in regards to how the Disney shows fit in the timeline. The Kenobi show took a giant dump all over established canon. The Acolyte will likely follow suit.
and kenobi met vader, even though he supposedly haven't met him ever since revenge of the sith which is why they spoke like the last time they met vader was his student.
Reading comprehension is important man, this article literally was making your point. Double negatives are a vital part of reading comprehension.
This man is clown
Exactly, people are too quick to comment but slow to read it seems.
I have seen like a million "woke accusations" wtf are you talking about? Why do you think it got dislike bombed
Yup, anyone that goes on IGN, and Star Wars Facebook posts for The Acolyte, it's nothing but people calling it "woke".
There is a difference between woke accusations and complaining about the leads being black and Asian. The trailer doesn't even make clear who the leads are.
@@PeregrinTintenfish "woke accusations and complaining about the leads being black and Asian" are both bad things?
This guy has totally missed the point lol. Yes we as the audience know the Sith haven’t been extinct for a thousand years, but that isn’t what the Jedi of the prequel era think 😂
eh, given how kinda useless the Council are in the prequels a Sith could do a dance right in the council chambers and the Jedi would still be like nope impossible the Sith are all dead
I think people need to reread the article, including theory.
The author is countering the arguments of Star Wars fans online .
Who misunderstood the obvious?
@@likeluptid theory did. He should of read the article instead of reacting to it live.

Disney Star Wars can't break canon because it never was canon.
Lol I dislike Disney star wars too but cmon now.
but it is.. So...
The whole star wars universe Was never canon since 1999
@@crowkid5553 There is still people in 2024 that only like the OT? Wow, its just ignorance at this point
@Wushaaa no I like the prequel movies (at least 3), and admittedly 7. I also like rogue one and solo. But even with the mess disney made that dosent mean it wasn't all good before then
The scary thing is, and they can't even hide it anymore, is they're slowly erasing the original six movies. Just watch the next 5-10 years, they'll completely erase anything canon and replace it with their own. We're witnessing the deliberate destruction of George's legacy.
Yeah, did you hear? Disney is REMAKING the Originals, IV through VI. The leaked titles are: Episode 4: A Rey of Hope. Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back, Again. Episode 6: The Return of Palpatine, Again.
I remember the day he sold star wars to Disney and Disney talked about releasing 3 more sequels and everyone was so hyped. If only we knew the horrors Disney would do to the franchise. Poor George, seeing his baby being mutilated like this, I bet he wishes now he would of made the sequels and kept his rights to his star wars franchise.
Even George Lucas is on their side. Star Wars is DEAD it has been once he sold it.

Someone should tweet this video at the author of this article. It’s insane he was allowed to write this as an opinion piece without watching any of the Star Wars movies or reading any of the books
Tassi is mostly in the Destiny community, so him going to Star Wars isn’t surprising but he should’ve at least done diligence before making the article, he’s a popular person in the Destiny Community but idk what brought him to make that article
Both the article and Star Wars itself are badly written works of low level fiction. Who cares?
@@The-Chaos-Agent makes sense then
Just did it. Am expecting a furious tweet back.
Just found out someone already did it, lol. Ah well.
Bro I’ve seen people bring up the lack of white people, it’s happening
Yeah, it's "absurd" to express an opinion just like it's absurd that Paul Tassi is getting paid to write these articles.
Didn’t he state it was absurd to state an opinion as a fact?
Reread the article. Tassi and theory are actually in agreement. For some reason Theory got diarrhea of the brain.
So Darth Maul can kill Jedi in the shadows without getting discovered, But the villains in this show cannot?
As long as every character in this show dies, both Jedi and the villains, sure.
Lol bro obviously doesn’t read his chat. Everyone on his livestream when watching the trailer was bitching about Asian and Black leads as well as women. Also saying “no single white male was visible” or “Woke Wars” so hopefully you’re speaking for yourself sir. Forbes Journalist is not wrong in this regard
If Disney would just sit down in their corporate office chugging their beers and counting their billions of dollars and think "Hey, you know what we should do? We should research the critique we are getting and give the fans WHAT THEY WANT. Then perhaps we would be way more successful with star wars." anyone with a logical mindset could make a better star wars film than Disney.
This!
yeah, and I do believe that they are not completely dumb. Which means even worse: they consciously destroy the thing.
“And he fought gallantly during the clone wars” 😂😂😂😂
Please start incorporating more of these kinda jokes in your vids I love it😂😂
I'm going to try and make this respectful and honest. Not trying to hate on anyone these are just my thoughts. I'm a fan of both theory and paul tassi and I've known theory before he even showed his face.
In the article Paul tassi literally says 0:42 "hes sure there are "woke" accusations somewhere out there" Hes not calling the entire fanbase racist. Hes just saying that theres some out there. He literally said what theory said. Like theory just agreed with him there but acted like paul was wrong??? Also I myself have seen a fair amount of backlash/racist remarks to leads.
2:44 like again yeah... They where hiding in the shadows. Theory just backed his point again.
3:56 What paul said here has confused me a bit. But from what I'm understanding hes saying that if they didint know palpatine was a sith lord then how can we as viewers trust that the jedi know that the sith havent been around for 1000 years. Mundi reveals to us that the jedi dont know shit but they slipped up with palpatine showing that maybe theyve slipped up before.
This video to me felt pointless. Theory just went over points making it seem like they where wrong but in the end backed them up. Paul didnt get "destroyed"
👏👏👏 Thank you, you've said it all
I think there was a big misunderstanding here, it's just kinda sad
Theory takes the Tim Pool route. He never agrees or disagrees. As long as he rides the fence, he'll be able to play both sides.

So many people are not only misunderstanding the meaning of the article Theory is talking about... they're also misunderstanding Theory. Theory himself literally says, "That's EXACTLY what the Sith were doing... hiding in the shadows!" @2:47. And the writer of the article himself states, "...hiding in the shadows... which is apparently EXACTLY what is happening in 'The Acolyte'." Theory simply misunderstood the journalist's meanings, and doesn't realize the two of them are in agreement. And sadly, people are confusing the issue even more by misunderstanding what Theory is saying. C'mon guys.... it's kinda sad that we're all arguing over nothing. Think of it like this... someone comments (admittedly not using the clearest language they could have chosen), "The sky is blue. Some people think it's green. But the sky is not, NOT blue, just because some people think it's green." ...And then someone reads that, misinterprets it as if the commenter was saying, "The sky IS green, it is NOT blue." And then everyone attacks the commenter for allegedly claiming the sky is green, which is not what they said in the first place. Does this make sense yet?? I promise you... We're all on the same side here... (mostly).
I think its very telling of a fanbase when they blindly follow you and what you said and hardly anyone is calling out the fact you spend most of the time misreading the entire article
They've confirmed everything we already knew.
The blind leading the blind
Scrolling through the comments now thankfully there seems to be quite a few viewers calling out the lack of reading comprehension.
It's honestly hilarious watching the "anti woke" guys getting themselves angry about an article they actually agree with.

Edit: ah shit talking about reading shit properly, i litteraly just did what theory did to the article, but to ur reply. I should really go to bed 😂.
you’re so lost
What bothers me is, the new writers don't retcon it on purpose, they do it because they don't understand or know the lore. They are casual movie fans at best. Faloni is obsessed with his own characters and take, and no one else worth a damn is allowed an opinion.
Sam Witwer is ❤
Ive always thought that the whole point of him saying “the sith have been extinct” was to show how clouded the Jedi were because at this point they have already had dinner parties and meetings with the emperor and didnt even know.
Most people say, everyone seeing the red lighsaber have to die. But don't forget Qui Gon fought Maul, reported to the council and they were like, nah. The sith are extinct for a millennium. The exact same thing might happen here.
Hey Theory I think you misunderstood the first bullet point about the Sith hiding in the shadows. the writer was saying the same thing you are: just because the Sith weren't prominent like in the Old Republic days, that does NOT mean that they were NOT hiding in the shadows; he's literally saying the same thing you are (and what is generally known).
Triple negative. If you elimate NOT you get "just because the Sith were prominent like in the Old Republic days, that does mean that they were hiding in the shadows"
@@LukiKruki no, the negative in the “weren’t” of my comment does not apply, because that’s the premise. Everything after the comma is the statement, therefore my capitalized NOTs: double negative.
He misunderstood the ENTIRE article.
Tassi's article is a response to those who want to dismiss Acolyte because "it breaks canon cuz council says they all dead" - he posts an example tweet & gives reasons it's dumb AND Theory AGREES with him.
What is even happening here?

I'm not batting for the Acolyte team, but have they confirmed their characters are Sith, and not just darkside users?
Sith Acolyte is literally a Sith Padawan.
it doesn`t matter if it is a sith or not, the red lightsaber is the lore braking point here, there where no red lightsabers seen in canon in star wars before episode 1 for a 1000 years.
only sith have red lightsabers nowone else, even the disney fanmade stuff stated you must bleed the crystal too make it red and too bleed a crystal you must be in full dark side mode, there is no way around even in the disney fanmade canon.
and in the george lucas canon there is also no work around that stuff.
red lightsaber means sith 100%. even an dark side corupted jedi has no red lightsaber.
Your only job was to read the article, and somehow you fucked that up.
Honestly, the fact that the Sith have supposedly been extinct for a millennia is part of why I thought the High Republic was a pointless time period to explore anyways, since it’s supposed to be the golden era of peace and prosperity meaning no real conflict. Darth Maul appearing in TPM was the indication that the golden era was over and the Jedi were about to be wiped out.
Would’ve preferred they explore something like their equivalent to the New Sith Wars that resulted in the Sith supposedly becoming extinct and how it reformed under Darth Bane. That would’ve been a lot more interesting.
1:18 to be fair, I have seen quite a lot of racist fans on Twitter regarding the trailer
Well, apparently Acolyte is supposed to be about sisters, maybe this evil sister will be the only force user with a red lightsaber to reveal herself to the Jedi. And at the end, she will return to the light side and maybe the Jedi will decide not to tell anyone about what happened because the enemy is back on their side. They will have no idea that more bad guys are hiding
That would be the dumbest ending possible.
That first statement you went into was exactly what the guy was saying the Sith were hiding in the shadows. He was saying just because the Jedi didn't think the Sith existed anymore didn't mean they weren't hiding in the shadows. Also if the rule of two was supposed to be a secret how did Yoda know about it when Darth Bane and his rule of two remained intentionally hidden from the Jedi in order to slowly but surely ensure their victory over the Jedi? Anyone have a answer to this?
This fool basically just angrily agreed with the entire article and didn't realize it
The only part he disagree with is his claim that no one is talking about race and "woke", but that's easily refuted when you look at his own comments section. Bunch of people literally saying woke on his own channel, yet he says they don't exist lol
@@CoS-ci5gdi think both you are slow. “They were hiding in the shadows” aka not a single red lightsaber, not a single dark side user that was not a jedi had been seen by the naked eye UNTIL DARTH Maul and that’s it. Plus there is a rule of two anyway soooo.😂
reading comprehension is really tough
Trashing SW even when the products arent out yet, this way there will never be hope.
I'm sorry guys......this trailer has powers. I think it made me geh. I get the urge to get butt pounded every time I think about it.
i think it just shows how blind and egotistical the jedi were which i think is the point
and this is just further trashing them then, because it's not just like they were ignorant for a couple of years while Palpatine is preparing his rise to power, now we get another century of crap going on? granted, we don't know a lot, but I don't predict they have a great, satisfying story arc that fans will appreciate. they probably think that because some fans will buy anything, and because Lucas got away with making it up as he went along for so long, that they can and should do the same thing, and they can somehow even do it better without putting in much work.
You literally agreed with most of the journalist's points though?
The funny part is it shows you not only his IQ level, but the people who he says doesn't exist throughout his own comments section yelling "woke"
The popcorn is delicious
That's not what I got from it. What did he agree with?
The problem is if there is a plot hole where the acolyte and Sith were known to exist recently by Jedi, but then somehow the wise educated force seeing council of Jedi masters somehow later believe the opposite despite that they should know better.
@@CoS-ci5gdnice try droid. Move along.
Im confused. Is Theory not reaffirming the published content reported by Paul Tassi? It feels like the wrong end of the stick has been gotten here.
Yes he is, the comment section is so funny 😂
I think he will eventually realize it, if he does read his own comment section
Yeah your not going crazy. This video makes no sense tbh
@@YilueHis reading comprehension sucks shit, and these people in the comments like holy shit lol
I’ve said this several times. Theory and the author are in agreement. I don’t know what his deal is, just ready to be outraged I guess.

In POINT THREE, the journalist is again REFERENCING THE SINGULAR OPINION(S) OF ANY ONE COMMENTOR (again, probably also the Cantina1234 comment, but also applicable to anyone single person's opinion), however THEORY AGAIN MISINTERPRETED HIS WORDS to be criticizing the in-universe character of Ki-Adi-Mundi, which he was not.
Sadly, a misunderstanding like this just bolsters and amplifies the Star Wars fan base's frustrations and negative reactions to recent, current and future Star Wars projects.

In truth, he and Theory are not disagreeing here, and the journalist is actually trying to offer a glimmer of hope by showing us that the set-up for 'The Acolyte', at least as shown in the trailer, is NOT in contradiction to established Star Wars canon. Of course, whether the show ends up being a success and embraced by Star Wars fans remains to be seen, and we should reserve final judgement until we actually watch it, no matter how discouraged we have been from other SW movies and shows.

Confirmed: Theory has a comprehension issue. The blind leading the blind as usual in our society.
He says he destroyed the article, yet he agrees with it. That's crazy.
Also, how dishonest can Theory get? He says no one is saying woke or talking about race, but bunch of the comments in his own channel says woke and "i see no white men". And this isn't the first time either.

So many people are not only misunderstanding the meaning of the article Theory is talking about... they're also misunderstanding Theory. Theory himself literally says, "That's EXACTLY what the Sith were doing... hiding in the shadows!" @2:47. And the writer of the article himself states, "...hiding in the shadows... which is apparently EXACTLY what is happening in 'The Acolyte'." Theory simply misunderstood the journalist's meanings, and doesn't realize the two of them are in agreement. And sadly, people are confusing the issue even more by misunderstanding what Theory is saying. C'mon guys.... it's kinda sad that we're all arguing over nothing. Think of it like this... someone comments (admittedly not using the clearest language they could have chosen), "The sky is blue. Some people think it's green. But the sky is not, NOT blue, just because some people think it's green." ...And then someone reads that, misinterprets it as if the commenter was saying, "The sky IS green, it is NOT blue." And then everyone attacks the commenter for allegedly claiming the sky is green, which is not what they said in the first place. Does this make sense yet?? I promise you... We're all on the same side here... (mostly).
To be fair Theory….theres been some CZcamsrs (well known at that) even some you’ve done videos with complain about how there’s no “white guys” in the trailer. I highly doubt you haven’t heard it man. I’ve always said it’s not about race it’s about telling a good story with good characters which Disney Star Wars has failed to do over and over…
Everything is being blackwashed, it’s noticeable and openly anti-white. It’s wrong and no one can convince me otherwise
@cloak1408 I agree with you 100%.
He's FOS if he hasn't seen it.
Literally a decent amount of his live stream chat just spams “Woke Wars” or diversity hire or something along those lines. Thankfully i’m not the only one seeing this
The problem is that it seems purposeful. That’s why the CZcamsrs you’re referring to take issue with it.
I'm confused...you literally say you disagree with his first two points, but then proceed to make the exact same argument he was making.
Yes please, like why are we so few to react over this?
No, his point is that they show Jedi fighting a Sith in the acolyte. And they said that there was no Sith for 1000 years in the prequels. so it makes no sense for there to be Jedi fighting Sith, unless all the Jedi did see the Sith die, and never get to the high Council

Did you even listen lol?
@@CaptainRockoBD Yes. Lets take point number for for example, the articles talks about how people are trying to argue sith existing in The Acolyte show doesn't make sense because in episode one they say the line "The Sith have been extinct for a millennium". In point one, the writer is saying that is a bad argument because just because they weren't around en masse, doesn't mean they didn't exist. Theory miss-read or misunderstood the point the author was making, and treated it like the Author was in fact agreeing with the argument people were making, and then proceeded to "argue" against this misunderstanding, by re-stating exactly the point the Author wrote.
Do we even know that any of the villains we have seen were actually Sith?
Functionally, they are Sith.
@@rl00668 Nope. Functionally, they are Dark Side Force-users, NOT Sith. They are two different things. Sith are Dark Side force-users, however the Sith are a strict Order, just like the Jedi. Even more so when the rule of two was created.
@@Wushaaa the point is, no matter what the excuse is, it's a huge stretch
@@rl00668 its not a huge stretch at all. There are plenty of various Dark Side users and groups. Heck there could be a group of zealots who are obsessed with the Sith, corrupted by the Dark Side or an artifact. They could act and look like the Sith, but it still doesn't make them Sith.
Look into the lore of star wars, you'll find out its very easy to do something like this ant not break Ki Adi Mundis single line.
Paul Tassi 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that BlackRock money tastes good huh?
More like Blackdik, but seriously Paul Tassi is a sweet baby defending piece of trash. Guy doesn't have a truthful bone in his body.
i mean the person killing jedi wouldn’t necessarily be a sith, we’ve seen non sith use the darkside(mace windu) or even use red lightsabers(kylo ren)
or even that they’re not even the MC
They haven't even released the show yet so I don't think we should hate on them
Oh please. They've been destroying all their franchises for ages now while calling everyone that disagrees with them all the worst labels. They're constantly spitting on fans and even when they're losing money they keep screwing up the exact same way. The trailer is embarrassing.
@@kelp7060 Your probably right the shows gonna be ass but still who know?
Bro, re-do your video 😂 2:38 do you understand that he said exactly that, they were hiding in the shadows! 😂 But you sound like you are hurt, I don’t get it bro… people got opinions same way you do.
Tbf, the article is incredibly stupid and poorly-written too. The problem with the acolyte extends far beyond simple 'lore mistakes'. It lies at the root of Disney and its new source of income, esg.
@@paradox2210 so because SWT can't read it's the articles fault? Weirdo
@@notme3384 I’m not exactly sure what you're insinuating. The article itself is poorly-written and doesn’t mention the _correct_ reasons why the show may or may not contradict the lore. I never even mentioned or commented upon the fact that Theory 'can't read'. You haven’t really 'said anything'.
@@paradox2210 well we don't know what your definition of "correct lore reasons" is so it seems like you're siding with Theory, but I'd like to know what the correct reasons are!
@@notme3384 Three of the *correct* reasons are as follows:
- The people surrounding the show are inferring that the Sith we will see aren’t going to be Tenebrous or Plagueis, even though they should be considering the show's time frame.
- The people surrounding the show are pretending that the Sith aren’t just 'the bad guys' despite the fact that they objectively are, and this absolute falsehood will more than likely carry over into the show.
- The trailer and the cast have implied that one of the lead characters is a female Sith, which doesn’t make sense during this time period, since the only two Sith in the galaxy *are* Tenebrous and Plagueis. If anything, she would be a Dark Jedi, but they consistently have mentioned the term 'Sith'.
I haven’t once mentioned Theory as part of my argument, and yes, I know that he misread the article. Theory misreading it doesn't confirm nor deny that the article is poorly-written in any way. The actual content of the article confirms that it is poorly-written.
Theory hasn’t seen any racist backlash because he doesn’t read the comments on his own content.
Most people don't, lol.
It's not racism, at least not on the commenters' part. One can see what people are talking about in Lucasfilm's offerings of the last couple years- they have established a certain way of writing characters based on their gender and race. The "Ahsoka" show offers good example of this. It makes for predictability, bad characterization, and nonsensical plots, so of course people are tired of it.
@@marychocolatefairy this is an incredibly good faith response and represents a valid concern. What you're missing is the abject racism and homophobia that abundantly weave their way into the livestreams and comments. In the latest plot lead video, Theory spends the first two minutes screen-sharing the opinion of someone using an ableist slur. I challenge you to wade your way through the comments on that clip and maintain your opinion about the people commenting on Theory's content.
"DESTROYED" by agreeing with all his points, but went into the article already mad so he could see it
This is peak hilarious 😂
He really didnt debunked anything, even saying that darth maul in comics was revealing himself prior to PM, to debunk that there were no sith and jedi encounter for the thousand years prior. He contradicts himself through the rest of the video too or straight up lies about some fans, and most star wars channels.
Star Wars theory hasn’t seen any of the racist backlash all over the internet? It’s in every single response to the trailer on CZcams
I have yet to see a single racist comment about it, stop projecting.
I've seen it everywhere in fairness, not that it matters to me but it is obvious there's a reason disney have done it...
What racist comments have you seen?
Calling out the diversity check boxes and the anti male mysandry isn't racist. All the comments are 99% jokes. Of course you need to point out the tiny minority.
Bro they have their eyes closed and fingers in heir ears lol
never trust someone from forbes to have a worthwhile take on anything related to pop culture
He’s literally agreeing with Theory, but he’s not understanding the article he’s complaining about. Lol
The Sith are a very specific order of Dark Side users with specific teachings and beliefs. It seems inevitable that there would be plenty of unaligned or outcast Dark Side users in a thousand years of history.
Yeah I mean the only Sith Master that be can be present during this time is Darth Tenebrous. He could be in the shadows and using the acolyte as a weapon. Who’s in the woods with a red lightsaber at the end? Idk, but the hand looked human 😬
Darth Tenebrous did have 2 apprentices before Plaguies. So he was probably looking for a new one and then once he met Plaguies he kills the Actyote or the Actyote escapes but barely.
Ooh I like that
Ive said this too,he had Venamis at the same time as Plagueis.Plagueis would have been a teen during this time but Tenebrous 100% knew him.I think its maybe an apprentice/assassin to Tenebrous that didnt make the cut lets say.
We’re going to have to give you a CT number theory. Always defending the republic and Jedi order. I love it.
CT-0766, 'Order 66', 'cause of the merch, maybe?
I don’t get the problem with the article. He’s saying exactly the same thing. He says it makes sense that there are Sith hiding in the shadows during the time of the Acolyte, and that Mundi’s words don’t contradict this because the Jedi didn’t know the Sith were still alive, which is the plot of the prequels.
What’s the problem?
I have hope, yet a big part of me knows this will probably be a random show that will just exist and end up being forgotten.
My wish is that they prove me wrong...
Is Star Wars theory not on the internet much? ALL ive seen is people ranting how there is TOO much diversity, and its a cast made of black space lesbians. Theres even a video where people try and count how many white people are even IN the trailer. None of the controversy ive seen is about the story, just the characters, costumes, and the director.
He's essentially gaslighting and lying at this point. He would have to not even read the comments or chat of his own videos to pretend not to see it...
Let alone all the other videos and comment sections in this space.
*"Woke, DEI, diversity, no white men etc"* Star Wars Theory is lying claiming he's never seen these comments. They're literally everywhere and the talking points are being spread by his fellow content creators like Nerdrotic, Critical Drinker and others.
Seeing other races or types of humans has thrown these guys into a fit. Their fans are flaunting their bigotry.
It's not bigotry. Saying "Woke, DEI, diversity etc" is not racist. None of the people you mentioned, nor the vast majority of the fandom, have any problem whatsoever with black/asian/female leads. The only problem we have is the tiresome and idiotic agenda disney and hollywood are shoving down our throats. Stop playing the victim and pulling the racism/sexism card whenever someone disagrees with you. It's so fucking infuriating. I urge you and everyone else to shove those cards back up your asses, to pull your heads out instead, and to start thinking again.
Theory is part of the "pretend it's not happening" camp
He would rather pretend they don't exist than alienate them.
@@lennywright8410He'll pretend he see it until he finds a way to grift off of them by selling them merchandise. I can see him coming out with "Woke Wars" products.
He's neck deep in this culture of thinly veiled bigots. He literally does a livestream with them and has cultivated their fans.
He's full of 💩
fyi - although there were no sith we do know that some force users who did not represent themself as jedi did use red, this is also why the jedi didnt beleve that the attacker was a sith when told he had a red lightsaber
6:09 Nah bruh why is my man acting like he was there in person💀
Maybe Ki Adi Mundi just had very poor education growing up. Gets it wrong and the other Jedi just feel bad for and don’t bother correcting anything he says.
I don’t latterly think that fyi. I love Ki Adi Mundi. He’s is one of my top Jedi.
If you can’t or have no desire to respect the fundamental aspects of the lore of a preexisting franchise, then wtf are you even doing writing for and heading a project for it? I’m so tired of Hollywood narcissists who come into a project to broadcast a message they think the audience needs to hear first and then just wrapping it in the trappings of whatever universe they’re working in instead of, oh gee I don’t know, beginning with the intention of telling a compelling story first?
I am not talking about diversity and that stuff but come on, guy. SWT here said that before Prequel Trilogy Maul killed Jedi before they could tell anyone and even then Palpatine was mad at him and THEN he said Sith never revealed themselves to Jedi through the millinion by Ki-Adi-Mundi words of whole Jedi cousil. Like, you do not see his hypocrisy in relation to his previous video? In order for Acolyte to work with Prequel Trilogy the Sith there have to kill all Jedi the moment saw them, their red lightsabers (like Maul I already told you) and cover up their deaths with being the doing of other enemies of Jedi like Nihil, Pirates. It would have to be Rogue One but in reverse, all dies but no info is send further.
Absolutely on point comment
The journalist is Paul Tassi... I'm not shocked.
Disney will say, Weeeelll, they weren't really a Sith yet because of xyz.
I've always wanted to know how yoda knew their was always 2 a master and an apprentice. And how he knew of darth bane
The same way we know about the Roman Empire despite not seeing them. In a galaxy far, far away. You don't think they got history books?
@JesusChrist-sx1lf well before that there was thousands of sith and bane wiped out the rest and and created his own rule of 2 and went into hiding. I would like to know how this information about bane came alight. Who snitched
@@ShelteredMan The same way the holy bible was written hundreds of years after my death. In a galaxy far, far away. You don't think stories spread, becomes legends and eventually gets printed in a history book?
I dunno theory. In your reaction stream people were extremely racist and sexist in your chat. I am
Not a Disney shill. I hate the sequels. But the fact your channel had such an odd reaction to a trailer is nuts. The trailer didn’t show anything offensive. The only complaint that you had was the fact there weren’t enough aliens. Which is a fair criticism. But the people in the chat were outright gross to read and witness live.
Yeah it was the opinion and understanding of the Jedi council and the entire Jedi order that there had not been traces at all of a sith for the last thousand years, so it doesn’t make sense if any Jedi is able to see or come to the conclusion or understanding that there are any sith during the time of this show and live to spread that information. This journalist seems to be writing a lot but saying nothing at all.

Confirmed: Star Wars Theory is illiterate. He literally just agreed with the articles points and didnt realize it. He's getting mad and doesnt know why lmao
I am upset that the lead is another generic human instead of aliens, somehow star trek shows have these insanely good looking aliens, even the orvil does and yet star wars only ever has aliens as bad guy goons or scene decoration. Only reason we got Ashoka was because she was pre disney. I mean how hard is it to have a twi'lek you slap a tentacle helmet on them and paint them green or some other color. I feel like the only reason the jedis in this show are of other races is because they are copying the prequels.
I think the acolyte will not have sith. instead the main antagonist will most likely be a force user turned bad and is using the dark side of the force, but doesn't have sith knowledge or teachings so they won't really be a sith, just a dark side user. Much like how the inquisitors used the dark side of the force but were never really trained as siths.
Ive read the article and youve both made the same points, i think it was the language he was using, kind of like the double negatives... but you both made the same points and then you dissed him at the end... just seems unprofessional, i really liked youre other stuff till i watched this, just a shame feels like your becoming toxic

BIG OOOOF!!!!!.... I'm not trying to throw shade at Theory here... I am usually a fan of his videos, but Theory is completely misreading or misunderstanding the article and the journalist's points. THE TWO OF THEM ARE ACTUALLY AGREEING on the same points, but Theory has misinterpreted what he is saying... Examples:
The journalist says in POINT ONE, "Just because the Sith were not around en masse like in the Old Republic days, it does NOT MEAN they did not exist and were hiding in the shadows." The journalist is basically saying, "The Sith were hiding in the shadows"... same as Theory.
In POINT TWO, the journalist is criticizing A COMMENT THAT AN OBSERVER of the trailer made, (the Cantina1234 commenter, whose comment is shown within the article), NOT THE JEDI WITHIN THE STAR WARS UNIVERSE, and NOT KI-ADI-MUNDI as Theory mistakenly interpreted the journalists words to mean.
In POINT THREE, the journalist is again REFERENCING THE SINGULAR OPINION(S) OF ANY ONE COMMENTOR (again, probably also the Cantina1234 comment, but also applicable to anyone single person's opinion), however THEORY AGAIN MISINTERPRETED HIS WORDS to be criticizing the in-universe character of Ki-Adi-Mundi, which he was not.
Sadly, a misunderstanding like this just bolsters and amplifies the Star Wars fan base's frustrations and negative reactions to recent, current and future Star Wars projects. Admittedly, we often have legitimate reasons and examples from the state of the SW franchise in recent years to be frustrated, disappointed, maybe even a little mad, and certainly to be wary about future projects, but in this particular case, in regards to this particular article and this journalist's words... he's not 'the enemy'. In truth, he and Theory are not disagreeing here, and the journalist is actually trying to offer a glimmer of hope by showing us that the set-up for 'The Acolyte', at least as shown in the trailer, is NOT in contradiction to established Star Wars canon. Of course, whether the show ends up being a success and embraced by Star Wars fans remains to be seen, and we should reserve final judgement until we actually watch it, no matter how discouraged we have been from other SW movies and shows.
My hopes would be that, if Theory sees my comment, or any of the others I've seen that point out his misunderstanding of the article, he would re-read the article to better understand the journalist's intended meaning, and then come forth with an acknowledgement of a mistake made. We all make mistakes and misinterpret things, (including the HUNDREDS of Theory video viewers who either also misunderstood the article or didn't bother to read the journalist's words for themselves... ), but when you have a platform with an audience as big as Theory's, and the power of influencing literally MILLIONS of people... the right thing to do is to set right an unintended wrong.
So many people are not only misunderstanding the meaning of the article Theory is talking about... they're also misunderstanding Theory. Theory himself literally says, "That's EXACTLY what the Sith were doing... hiding in the shadows!" @2:47. And the writer of the article himself states, "...hiding in the shadows... which is apparently EXACTLY what is happening in 'The Acolyte'." Theory simply misunderstood the journalist's meanings, and doesn't realize the two of them are in agreement. And sadly, people are confusing the issue even more by misunderstanding what Theory is saying. C'mon guys.... it's kinda sad that we're all arguing over nothing. Think of it like this... someone comments (admittedly not using the clearest language they could have chosen), "The sky is blue. Some people think it's green. But the sky is not, NOT blue, just because some people think it's green." ...And then someone reads that, misinterprets it as if the commenter was saying, "The sky IS green, it is NOT blue." And then everyone attacks the commenter for allegedly claiming the sky is green, which is not what they said in the first place. Does this make sense yet?? I promise you... We're all on the same side here... (mostly).
In the writers defense to one line, i think there should be a comma between the sith en masse and hiding in the shadows. Like “the sith were not around en mass, and instead they were hiding in the shadows, hence why the council didnt know they existed
5:14 theory agrees with the writer and doesn’t even realize it 🤣
Bro you need to read CZcams comments more often if you haven't seen any discussion about race/ethnicity in The Acolyte. On second thought, scratch that, the comment section is a depressing place to be.
Well is hard to not point the fact that they're casting based on ethnicity and sexuality apparently, I don't care that much but it's impossible to not see it if you're not into woke sht
The Force is strong with the Fandom, the Fandom is the Force.
The sith were always around hiding but setting up the grand plan this did include killing Jedi in secret. This started with bane and his apprentice
1:00 You're kidding right? Look at Critical Drinker and Nerdrotic. They are obsessing over the lack of straight white men.
An Disney was obsessing over the lack of black woman and queers
Oh my God he's going after Paul Tassi 😂
Any heat that Paul takes is completely self-inflicted.
@@NerdyVet. agreed
Even the destiny community doesn't like him lol
what about the droid attack on the wookies?
That guy is just sticking his fingers in his ears and refusing to listen lol
i have definetly seen people upset that one of the main characters is black, the asian part not really.
I haven't seen it at all.
I’ve seen people annoyed by the leads comments not because she’s black
false, Nobody who is fan of star wars cares for skin color of the characters. Mace windu and lando was very famous characters in star wars universe, not because of there skin color but because the characters was written very well and portrayed very well by good actors. This whole race narrative ideology is woke leftist making up sht just like the article writer. We've had black characters before and many people who are black are very famous and loved. The whole idea that it's racism is white liberal fantasy.
People just want a good male character to go with either a good female character, a cast of fun and interesting side characters, or both. There’s nothing wrong with that. Black, white, asian, whatever. Just a good, solid, competent male character with a backbone who may or may not have allies that are competent when called for to aid him in his chosen mission. People liked Cal Kestis and Merrin and their crew, people seemed to enjoy Din Djarin and Cara Dune, Grogu, Greef Karga, etc…. but of course, there aren’t very many of those partnerships and characters that we can say, definitively, 'Wow, I'm really impressed with this', thanks to Disney being given esg money.
Call me sexist or whatever I don’t really care but looks like all women main characters.. I’m sorry but Star Wars doesn’t cater to me and what I grew up with. Everyone needs to be included and it’s for everyone but damn bro every thing they’ve made is predominantly women. Like am I wrong or is Star Wars not a predominantly male audience??DOESNT MEAN WOMEN can’t be in Star Wars but DAMN every project?? KK doesn’t care about the older fans she only cares about the new modernized fans. For example, Reva did not need to be involved with kenobi and Vaders story, they “fake killed” the grand inquisitor so Reva can have a place in the story. You know why? Cause the grand inquisitor was the perfect character to hunt obi wan down but nope kk. we are haters cause Star Wars is clearly changing the fanbase
And everything in the OT and PT was about men 😂
Just 2 women existed in the OT. In the PT more as Background npcs, but only 3 got the opportunity to Talk 💀. Were you complaining abt that? Its so ridiculouslly funny how Fans are upset after they look into the mirror.
Why tf would anyone give a f abt the gender? I would watch a show with women only, If its good written. Writing is what counts. Not whats between the legs of the characters.
@@joel5135 I’m talking about Disney Star Wars 🙄
@@joel5135 Disney Star Wars writes women in ways that make established characters dumb
There have been tons of female fans since 1977 and the fanbase has not been predominantly male - certain types of men have just been complaining the loudest since the 70s and won't shut up about it.
Look at disney"s catalog. Why are you suprised by this?? This isnt new. Gotta learn to get over it.
Why aren't people also pointing to Mace saying, "I do not believe the Sith could have returned without us knowing"? It throughly echoes and adds to Ki-Adi-Mundi's observation. Another Jedi Master on the Council saying the same thing, only in a different way.
You gotta remember tho that Ki-Adi-Mundi as a CHARACTER represents the ignorance of the Jedi Order in that time period. him saying that the Sith have been extinct for a thousand years could just be him being a stubborn prick and dismissing Qui-Gons report to the council. This ONE LINE doesn't dictate star wars lore for the pre-clone-wars era, especially when its said by such an unreliable character as Ki-Adi-Mundi
Its been a while since I read it, but I believe that in the Legends book "Labyrinth of Evil", master Yoda Said to Obi Wan, that He was Always aware that the Sith were never gone. But he didn't know how much stronger they became
I think Theory has misunderstood this man's point: he's saying that inserting Sith into Cannon 100 years before Phantom Menace does not break cannon - and he is correct. Ki Adi Mundi and the entire Council were wrong about the Sith not existing for a millennium - just because Ki Adi Mundi gives an opinion does not make it so - this was the point of his article. The Sith can exist from the shadows: there is no controversy, and anxious fans trying to make one up is absurd, I agree.
The Sith publicly revealing themselves 100 years before Phantom Menace, however, would be more of an issue/retcon - however, there's nothing in the trailer that suggests that the show is going to do that. People are speculating over something for which there is no evidence, and need to chill.
During the High Republic Yoda Yareel Poof and Oppo Rancis were on the council and alive during this acolyte show. Hell Plo koon was a Jedi Padawan. At least 4 members of the current Jedi Council would’ve been aware during the High Republic that a Sith was attacking their Jedi. 100 years prior to the Clone Wars all of these council members were present. Oh almost forgot Terra Sanubai
Basically every Jedi I just listed were alive during this time. Which means, they would’ve been aware of Sith. It’s almost impossible.
I love when Theory gets an attitude 😂 that jam always makes my day
I know one thing. That we should wait and see how it plays out in the show.
Disneys agenda has ruined this ip beyond fixing
Are u sure it’s an agenda problem and not a writing problem 😂. Perfectly good movies with a female lead, like rouge one. This ain’t got nothing to do with Disney’s agenda.
Agreed writing is shit too.
@@corruptsion3725Nah, it is obviously an agenda problem. If you know where Disney and every other company are getting their main source of income, you understand why they’re doing it… esg.
