- Ever since the Acolyte Episode 7 released on disney plus and failed terribly...one major development now has more to do with actress Amandla Stenberg and her reaction after the acolyte cancelled situation that has been going on behind the scenes.....this all comes in the midst of the acolyte rotten tomatoes score constantly changing for both the audience and critics and with the acolyte episode 8 set to drop next week those like leslye headland and kathleen kennedy have been engaging in endless damage control over the series for disney plus.....

We all agree: Acolyte isn’t canon.
it's pure adulterated 💩
We can only hope!
No fam. Only the fans determine what is Canon and to be and to be completely honest, after he sold it to Disney it stopped being Canon completely @@gemsJP
Yep, only us fans can determine what's Canon or not
Nothing Disney is canon.
No one says star wars doesnt belong to women. Everyone is saying the acolyte is shit.
Absolutely!!!! Just like Star trek Discovery and Strange New Worlds!! Piss poor writing and too much agenda!
@@JamesCottle-q9wI'll give u Star Trek Discovery but Strange New Worlds isnt that bad. It isnt the best Star Trek but its way better than Discovery.
It doesn’t belong to women.
It doesnt belong to women though😂 majority of fans are men not saying there arent women who arent fans but come on lets get real star wars is more for men. I know not one girl who is into star wars. Again not sayin there arent any but 8 out if 10 fans are men
It's also funny they assume women can't possibly enjoy a film/show with a Male lead
The blaming of one,
The blaming of two,
The blaming of the fans, the viewers, and never me !
Perfect example of narcisism.
if you take an IP, and make something new, you are suppose to cater to the fans.
If you want to make something for a new group , then make something for them.
And this is why it will never get better, because they ignore the fans when we tell them how they could make it better
The victim claiming of one, The victim claiming of two, The victim claiming of rich spoilt narcissist brats and pedo facilitators.
the blaming of many
Princess Leia: Heroine of original trilogy.
Queen/Senator Amidala: Heroine of prequel trilogy.
Mon Mothma: Leader of the entire Rebellion.
Yeah... We have issues with female characters 🙄
“Women weren’t important to Lucas’s vision” lol like what??
They do because they've heroic qualities which they don't women to have
Asoka, bo katan, ventress
@@anthonyabrego9185 the list goes on 🤷
Pointing out garbage acting in a garbage role: "Muh Misoggyknee!!!"
ONLY a matter of time before she gets those new FANS...
They killed Star Wars
They killed Star Trek
They killed Indiana Jones
BBC killed Dr Who
They killed Witcher
What next, Conan the...,
Oh crap, I've just given them another favorite character to destroy.
Marvel
Omg Conan could be a black gay chick 😂 it would be perfect 😂😂
Ghostbusters don't forget Ghostbusters
@@Devast8r34 -- hey, Grace Jones might have been a good spin off of the Conan Series
Actually, DEIsney was instrumental in killing off Dr. Who as well.
This is what happens when you put an egotist in charge of a TV show, they’ll try taking ownership of the entire franchise. What a mess.
I almost quoted the Big Lebowski - "You see what happens Larry!?"
Well, it's ultimately Iger's call, so next season we'll likely see if he really means the part about, _“Our job is to entertain first and foremost, by telling great stories, and not to advance any kind of agenda”._
An egotistical person who must have known what her old boss (HW) was doing to women. How on Earth does that fit with the supposed feminist agenda? Facilitating or not speaking out but then coming out with the nonsense of - well if you hate the series then you are a misogynist. NO- people just want to watch good television and be entertained.
I took my 9 year old son to see the Marvels movie as he wanted to see it. Halfway through he turned to me (remember he is 9) and said- ‘this is really confusing and silly’. At the end he said that he wished we had seen something else. I was 7 when star ways came out and I was hooked. If Disney cannot hook children then they are ultimately done for.
This is the same thing that happened to the Last Jedi
Why are they destroying everything I grew up with. I think it may be political and social engineering. It's certainly deliberate.
I hate they keep saying they don't have an agenda and then say they fully support DEI😮💨 DEI is the agenda.
DEI = modern racism
you should hire somebody because they're talented not because of skin color or sexual orientation
100%
LGBT is also the agenda
LGBT is also the agenda
They don't because meritocracy reveals the inherent inadequacies of DEI's poster children.
She also said they wanted to intentionally put female characters above male one. How is that not an agenda?
Trouble isn’t that fans think Star Wars “belongs to them”… the problem is because she thinks Star Wars belongs to her!
Such a weird point of view they have. They don't seem to understand that fans are not obliged to watch their show. They can create whatever they like, the market dictates whether it's successful.
Exactly if the fans didn't watch they'd have nothing
I love how she denies the agenda then confidently describes there motives, I mean the agenda
Progressives love to gaslight people.
Erase the past because it has spoilers for the future they want.
Leslye Headland said in an interview that it was the “gayest Star Wars ever”, and Amandla Stenberg didn’t seem to have a problem with that at all
@@erikdayne5429of course she doesn't have morals and just wants to get her bank account bigger.
"No agenda". They just keep saying this. I dont think it means what they think it means.
I haven’t seen the anti-women criticism that Amandla is talking about. The only criticism I’ve seen is about the story, the pacing and the acting.
That's her narcissist ego defense mechanism. Instead of taking accountability she makes it about identity politics. Narcissists deflect everything.
To them, that is anti-woman criticism. If you criticize the writing or the acting, to them that is anti-woman if the writer or the actor is a woman.
It isn't just narcissism, it is how that end of the spectrum acts. When they don't have a leg to stand on to defend their vision of Star Wars, they resort to identity politics. It either because they're black (insert non-white racial group if they aren't), they're female, and/or part of the alphabet mafia. The problem is when you cry discrimination too often, when the wolf actually shows up, no one cares or believes you anymore.
100%! It is just an excuse.
These are very insecure woman, claiming to be “strong”. As a woman, these are women I cannot stand either.
The word “acolyte” will enter the Urban Dictionary as follows, … I took my dog for a walk and he did an acolyte on the pavement or I watched a Disney production directed by Lesley Headland and it was acolyte. Amandla couldn’t act for acolyte. See how the word fits perfectly.
Ahhh, when your whole persona is about your sexual preference.
That describes Leslye Headlamp to a T.
leslye headland, kathleen kennedy, Amandla Stenberg. narcissists 100%
Sounds like you may have a new Disney+ series in the works😄
Leslye Headland is a sociopath.
Women ☕️
Should all be fired and never given another chance.
The only question is: “high or low functioning?”. High-functioning means they know full well they’re a narcissistic piece of trash, they just don’t care. Low-functioning means they intentionally decided at some point to ignore it to the point they no longer realize it anymore and are now so delusional they buy their own lies not realizing that buying your own sale is a net gain of nothing.
She says they're not pushing an agenda, but how many times she did use the term "diversity" in her statement?
Do they know that Carrie Fisher helped make Star Wars what it is behind the scenes too? I thought they were supposed to be supporting their fellow women in this "mean, evil men''s world"? She was a strong, I tellegent female lead both on and off screen. And she was 10,000 times the person those at Disney could ever try to be. Carrie Fisher will never be forgotten!
completely 100%-
their ideology is entirely based on viewing history to the specific lense that women were always and everywhere oppressed.
thats why every movie with a female star claims to be the "first to do so"
But she wore a sexy bikini for a little bit, so that cancels out everything else the character did. 🙄
and don’t forget George Lucas’ ex-wife, Marcia, who played an enormous role in shaping the original trilogy
@@BoomstickFTW yeah but i bet if you ask han if he would rather be frozen or wear a sexy bikini, he would propably choose the bikini. :D
There’s no fucking way she just compared her ridiculous characters to the Skywalkers and said they might be better
Amandla Stenberg couldnt carry a candle to Carrie Fisher and Natalie Portman...Much less to Princesses Leia Organa and Amidala, and Mon Mothma...
lucas was not that great. It was his wife's (of that time) editing that made the original star wars so good. That is why The initial trilogy was so much better than the prequel.
Whatever it was they created a Golden Goose. We all know how that parable ended and Disney has golden blood on its hands.
Lol she plays both twins so similarly that even characters in the show can’t tell them apart 😂
@@slewone4905Even more proof that with the right people, male or female, they can make a great story. People like Headland canNOT make anything good.
Agreed not even close
I’m a woman. The Acolyte is the worst tv show I have ever watched. Not because of the gender or sexuality of those who made it, but because of absolutely TERRIBLE writing.
Those type always care more about pushing ideologies than good writing
They're diverse? They're played by the same actor
Dont know how Amandla Stenberg can accuse Star Wars fans of misogyny considering men and women both think 'The Acolyte' is crap!
The lack of self awareness is staggering! She starts by saying that there is "no agenda" being pushed on the fans, then goes on and on about DEI, the diversity of the cast, and how important that is to her, the writers and the director. How completely self absorbed you must be to even make such a statement!!!
So she's selfish for wanting to be diverse ?
@@kingtwon3x154 She is so focused on it that she can't even see how focused she is on it (or she's just lying). She's saying that no one is consciously pushing that view, but then she quotes all of the people involved and how they are pushing their views. And it's not just diversity that they are pushing. And they aren't pushing it for the sake of the story, they are pushing it to stick it in our faces. It's VERY deliberate, and we KNOW it's deliberate, because we have Disney executives on tape stating that it is their intention to push their agendas. And THAT is what the fans are rebelling against. They keep destroying popular and loved franchises with their agendas that nobody but a small minority agree with.
@@kingtwon3x154 you're braindead
Joel Schumacher - "if people think i ruined batman then i apologize because that wasn't my intention".
Leslye Headland - "if people think I ruined star wars theyre racist bigots and nothing but toxic males who are misogynists".
Atleast with Schumacher it wasn't his fault. The studio wanted him to make the third batman less dark and more campy for kids and he did. Then with Batman and Robin the studio wanted it to be more childish and kid friendly and Batman forever wasnt childish enough for them. Schumacher wanted to do one more Batman where it went back to the dark, gritty character but unfortunately Batman and Robin killed off that ever happening.
Schumacher was a bad choice regardless
All 4 of those batman movies were trash tbh
@@DREADEYE_KNIGHT but at least he recognized his fault.
Woke DEI is circling drain, let's make sure it goes away. U.S. has always been a meritocracy. The 1/2 percent that this series catered to can not support the endeavor, they need the other 99 1/2 percent to succeed. Disney failed stockholders.
ehmmmm, mayby you should look up what meritocracy means.
DEI has been rebranded to BRIDGE ...it's not going anywhere yet unfortunately
A bunch of lesbian witches in the series commit suicide by in-effectively using mind control which is same thing that happened in real life at Disney HQ.
The twin characters in the series hop from one contradiction to another like Amanda hops from denying the series is an opus to a DEI utopia and claiming it was their goal all along. All this while her acting falls somewhere below mediocre. Why would anyone give her any credibility concerning quality.
Your opening statement is the best take of the day.
I like what you did there “opus dei”. Which is an extreme Roman Catholic organisation...
DEI is important to her, Headlamp, and KK because its the only way they get work. Amandla's flat, emotionless acting; Headlamp's boring, plot hole ridden story; and KK's bad management style and unwillingness to budge when they loose money every time, would get all of them fired in a system that values qualifications over someone's race, gender, or sexual preference
Right exactly
These 3 wouldn't have a job if it was based on their SKILLS
You need to add Viola Davis to your list of insufferable, entitled actresses. She was equally delusional when The Woman King tanked at the box office.
Viola Davies was born in 1965, and she is a different type of insufferable alongside 'The View' members like Whoopi.
The Insufferables (Brats under 40)
She Hulk - Tatiana Gabriele Maslany (Born 1985)
Indiana Jones 5 - Phoebe Waller-Bridge (Born 1985)
Marvel - Brie Larson (Born 1989)
The Hunger Games - Jennifer Lawrence (Born 1990)
The Acolyte - Amandla Stenberg (Born 1998)
Snow White - Rachel Zegler Weird Weird (Born 2001)
Wow. Putting a glorified secretary in charge of a $180 million production doesnt work, what a shocker.
Why can't actresses and actors just stick to acting and leave their commentaries completely out of the equation? It never helps.
because they try to fill the gaping hole inside them with attention.
Because she is desperate trying to save her job.
Narcissism
Right i always thought that the LESS famous people talked (actors, athletes) the COOLER it made them
@@DREADEYE_KNIGHT It certainly makes them more intelligent.
This is exactly what happens when a Star Wars series is given to a misandrist (Headland) who hires a younger misandrist actress (Stenberg) and neither one of them have any talent.
Amanda just threw Princess Liea and Ellen Ripley characters under the bus. Those are just two examples of strong female characters in movies.
And she fades back into obscurity. Cut to black.
I swear every time Kathleen, Leslie, and Amanda speak about DEI and Woke not being in Star Wars, there is a strong destructive wave in the force that all fans feel. A billion voices crying out in horror.
*DISNEY DOESN'T GET IT... A PRETTY FACE
DOESN'T MAKE AN ACTOR GOOD... AND WHEN THAT PRETTY FACE IS "WOKE", IT'S A DISASTER*
Who's pretty? 😅

@@NixLotus 😂
I'd take a good story that had a woke message where the story can stand on its own. However, that is the one thing Disney is not capable of. They can't make a good story......just the "message."
Amandala is good looking but loco en la cabeza😂
Whoever claiming that the Acolyte twins have more significance (are more revolutionary if not better) in Star Wars than the Skywalkers are proven insane by default! Star Wars is a 'Space Opera' about the Skywalker family, not about some spin off twins!!
Its like ordering a beer yet receiving a non-alcoholic imitation thus complaining for service in response getting slapped inface and called a bigot. I say its time to put out the trash.
That's how you know that she has never watched any Star Wars movies or even looked at the lore.
The difference between headland, kenedy and George Lucas is Lucas didn’t have to try to convince everyone how great he was it was clear to see.
I have never heard people contradict themselves more than her and Leslye. It's insane. Like they are trying to brainwash people into believing their is no agenda by repeating it constantly. Then, in the same conversation they talk about the important agenda like DEI that they want in Star Wars. They are insane. She has THE NERVE to say females weren't important to George. Princess Leia was the top 3 most important person in the entire story. These people are pathetic!
The most scary thing Amandla could to to frighten Star Wars fans would be to promise to work with LH on another Star Wars series.
It's not that she has no idea how the world works it's just that her world works completely different than ours and she dosen't care about ours
Guess she never watched the real Star Wars with Princess Leia being one of the most loved characters. It’s called great writing and acting.
I wouldn't even say that the acting was that great in the originals, to be honest. But the STORY was enthralling! As a child, I was totally captivated by the imagery more than the story. The lightsaber was the coolest thing I had ever seen! And the X-Wing fighter was such a unique and surprising style of fighter that captured the imagination. Star Destroyers and the Death Star? Unbelievable imagery for a child! But as I got older, the way the story unfolded, especially in Empire when you find out that this fearsome character, Darth Vader, is actually Luke's father???!!! Just such a twist and gut punch!! Then to find out Leah is his twin sister???? Every movie had something in it that caught you off guard, even though everyone should have seen it coming, but no one did. THAT was the genius of George Lucas. Trying to compare these Disney writers to George Lucas is like trying to compare .... well, you get the point. Think of the worst artist to compare against one of the best.
...and casting. Carrie Fisher was a Beverly Hills princess before she ever got the role.
@@tfilmyr I loved Carrie Fisher, but you could tell she was new to acting at the time of the first Star Wars. A college buddy of mine pointed out how, at the beginning of the movie (scenes with Darth Vader on her ship after she was captured), she was trying to talk with a British accent, but ended up having to ditch it sometime during the movie because it wasn't convincing.
GEORGE LUCAS needs to "MAKE IT RIGHT!" He needs to "MAKE IT RIGHT" with the FANS. With The STAR WARS Franchise. With HIMSELF for selling The STAR WARS UNIVERSE to DISNEY. DISNEY DESTROYS EVERYTHING THEY GET THEIR HANDS ON! STAR WARS, MARVEL, PIXAR, FOX, ESPN. GEORGE LUCAS needs to BUY "STAR WARS" BACK!
As a woman, I do not CARE if early star wars had mostly males because I don't think about genders when I watch a movie, I think about CHARACTERS. I don't need forced female representation because star wars always had female characters, and WELL WRITTEN ones too, even if the majority are male. I would like female characters but only if its integrated naturally and not some forced agenda. I hate it so much when films and shows tries to pander and you see a character that is soulless and the only reason for them is "look at me, im your token female character/love interest that has absolutely no development".
Lets face it, star wars is mostly targeted towards men, I don't know any girls who has even seen the movies. My sisters would rather watch a vampire anime than a galactical space sci-fi war. I watched them all before Disney took over and some of my favorite characters so happen to be men. Why?? because they have motives, they have struggles, they have short comings, they make mistakes, there charismatic/funny, and there endearing. You want to see them succeed and see where there story takes them, unlike the dumpster fire that is acolyte. I wouldn't give a crap if all the characters died, I would be cheering at that point. There extremally unlikeable, and not only the characters are terrible, but the story is trash. I gave up on the second episode. I thought it would maybe have something to it like Mandalorian, hell no.
Stop trying to change what's already been established, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Stop trying to force your own personal beliefs into something that only caters to you because you end up alienating the rest of the audience.... you know, the people your making it for. Star wars is a story, its fun entertainment, its not your support animal.
Traditional Star Wars fans have accepted lots of bad dialogue and plot holes in the past, because the stories and characters have always been engaging and fun. The movies allowed us to escape our current world and all its problems for a couple hours. The new Star Wars movies and shows drag our real-world problems into a once-beloved galaxy far, far away. The original Star Wars stories were fantasy, not social commentary.
1. The Acolyte story is just not good, and often cringey. "The power of MAAAANY"???
2. It feels like actors are simply reading lines to advance the nonsensical plot, not creating likable - or believable - characters.
3. The story contradicts and destroys established canon and beloved characters.
4. The actors and creators are terrible people in public, being very condescending and calling fans of the old Star Wars all sorts of "-ist" names.
She said, there is no political agenda
and then turn around and say, DEI is important to her .
I'm a woman and let me tell you, Ms. Stenberg: It's not about women, it's about a very stupid plot that destroys the whole Star Wars universe.
(EASY FIX) No one cares what the actors think. The customers do not work for them. In fact check the viewership.
"People say show bad. Is it because show bad? Nono, it's people bad."
When you cannot tolerate or listen to criticism, you can never improve.
She says:
"No agenda!"
2 seconds later:
"DEI is important to us..."
She is bad at lying.
How do u ruin a beloved franchise? Do the opposite of what made it sucsessful for 30+ years in the name of “equality” and play ignorant
lucas and everyone who worked under him spent unlimited time world building.
They threw it away, and just made some slop.
I am a female and I have been a Star Wars’ fan since it hit the theatres in 1977 and my Daddy took all us four kids and my mother to go see it! It was a treat to go to the movie theatres! I was 7 yrs old turning 8, and my Daddy just return from his from his last assignment in the military as AD. I saw all 9 movies. I took my Daddy, Momma, and sons to the Final Star Wars movie. I saw the Han Solo movie and Rogue One. I even watched the cartoon Star Wars and Lego shows. I’m tired of these people stating that Star Wars isn’t for women! That only men were into Star Wars. I read some of the books, comic books, and played with my brother’s Star Wars toys, I wore R2D2 under-Roos and own a R2-D2 droid and other Star Wars items, but mostly R2-D2, I have debated and argued over the movies, but I haven’t watched any of the Disney adaptations because I don’t have Disney Plus. But just seeing the clips of this show and some of the others, I can see how bad it is, it’s badly written fan-fiction and I rather pop in the older Star War movies and pretend that Mark Harmill isn’t insane and JarJar Binks was the worst thing about Star Wars (I can’t really watch the last 3 movies they really took a turn into delulu land and if I do it has to be after the Boondocks Saints).
There’s no way they tie up all these loose ends in one more episode. They intentionally created a lot of mysteries and questions they had no plan to answer in one season, to try to force them to make a second season because “don’t you wanna know the answer to all these questions”. It’s so manipulative and kinda proves they knew the story wasn’t going to be good if they had to engage in this kind of trickery to try to get a second season.
So sick of hearing how im the issue when I WANTED THE ACOLYTE TO BE GOOD. WE WANT BETTER WRITING AND ACTING
We want good writing that fits the canonical structure
@@zacharyknight3012 probably a better to way to describe it
Star Wars is dead, done, over. I've been holding on (I'm 53), but it's gone too far. As far as I'm concerned Star Wars is dead there can never be another Star Wars movie/show. There will be ones that claim the name for themselves, but they will just be more of the same garbage we've been fed for the last 10 years... 15 years? Really when was the last time a Star Wars movie, streaming show, whatever came out and was actually good- not great, just good?
The answer would have been The Mandolorian. But after two seasons of making money and being popular corporate decided they needed to get their grubby little hands on it and ruin it. They then took it a step further and ruined the spin-off series Bobba Fett. Star Wars as you said is just hot garbage now. Makes me sad how far it has fallen. Even if they miraculously start making good stuff again, they've already tarnished the brand's reputation so much that a comeback will have to be done in another twenty years to make people forget just how bad it is.
Try Andor, you might like it. It's actually surprisingly good.
@@Damien616 Spoiler*
I tried watching Andor, it just didn't click with me for some reason. I might try watching it again at a later time. Knowing the protag dies in Rouge One might have turned me off to it initially.
I heard Andor was good, but since the entire franchise is such garbage, I didn’t bother. I haven’t watched any of that crap since walking out on Episode VIII.
Andor is super good, and rogue one is my favorite Star Wars movie
"I'm not the problem, all of you are the problem! 😭"
Ok Leslie/Amandla. Why don't you just sit down and take deep breaths. Here is a crayon. Why don't you color in this book for a while. No accountability.

This poor lady just delusional
It’s like they completely forgot the Star Wars series RIGHT BEFORE THIS had a female protagonist OF COLOR in Rosario Dawson which is 100x better than this ridiculous show. Like what is going on 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Star War is all radical feminism now.
Can we get interviewers or journalists that actually challenge the director and actors on their views? They all just glaze them constantly and never counter their thoughts on Star Wars.
Misogyny from fans ? What about Ahsoka ? Female protagonist. Huge difference in the fan rating 💀💀
Let’s go watch some Stat Wars……I mean let’s go watch lesbian Game of Thrones with lightsabers.
Seems like they completely failed at attracting new fans and can't accept the failure.
What I have to say about mother Anaseya has nothing to do with gender, color, or sexual orientation. I want to talk about motives.
First point: Anaseya says she wants to let Osha go with the Jedi. So why does she invade Torbin’s mind and amplify his desires to leave? This action causes him to recklessly rush back to the coven to kidnap both twins as proof of a vergence. If Anaseya can see the future, why does she mess with Torbin in this way?
Second point: Anaseya suddenly and without warning turns to smoke and starts disintegrating Mae, which doesn’t seem to have anything to do with letting Osha go with the Jedi.
So you have a character who says she is willing to let Osha go, but then messes with Torbin and then suddenly attacks Mae in front of Sol. Why? Her actions and stated motivation seem to be in direct conflict with each other. Once she is stabbed, she tells Sol that she was going to let Osha know, but her actions say otherwise.
Why does Anaseya use her thread powers? So we could see how cool the witches’ powers are. There seems to be no explanation in the show other than the writers wanted us to see how cool the witches’ powers are. Why does she say she was going to let Osha go after Sol stabs her? The writers want Sol to look like a violent idiot, so she makes this heart-wrenching comment but it is not supported by her actions, so it just sounds out of place. This is not good writing.
Last night I lit a fire and stabbed the smoke with a hot knife. The smoke was unharmed. If you want Sol to kill Anaseya, at least have some logic to how she dies. And falling back on something like, “oh you don’t understand how the thread or the force work” is a cop out. Don’t excuse bad writing with an appeal to magic. If there are rules to how lightsabers interact with thread smoke, you have to clue your viewer in to those rules; otherwise, a lightsaber killing smoke is just nonsense.
Women weren't important in George Lucas' Star Wars, yet Anakin Skywalker became Dart Vader because of the death of his beloved mother and wife. Guess they were not important to Anakin after all, and he turned to the ''grey side'' (because light and dark is no longer good and evil) for other reasons..
Princess Leia was just a member of the Imperial Senate and an agent of the Rebel Alliance, so she was off course an insignificant female in Mr. Lucas' vision. That Leia managed to thwart the Sith Lord Darth Vader and help bring about the destruction of the Empire's superweapon, the Death Star, can not really be attributed to her. That Leia commands a Rebel base in the Return of the Jedi is off course what only weak women would be assigned to, and her helping to rescue Han from the crime lord Jabba the Hutt, strangling him with a chain is not important! She was wearing a bikini! Mon Mothma is just a fictional leader of the Rebel Alliance, and she was just accidentally written as a woman, while the twins are real intentional women! COME ON!!! The Acolyte women are INSANE!!
If one looks solely at the facial expressions, dialogues, plot, cinematography and special effects of The Acolyte, and simultaneously ignores everything else about the backgrounds of the actors, creators and Star Wars... how can a serious film industry professional or film/theater critic conclude that this series is good... without being financially dependent on the creators, having a gun held to their head or being high AF??
_That is a completely serious question!_
Princess Leia is one of the most iconic strong but yet feminine female portraited in film. This actress just don't understand Starwars.
If these characters are so unique how did Eric Cartman predict them a year ago?
I remember Amandla going absolute cringe/rage at a comic book convention when promoting Niobe. Daughter loved her Rue character and people wanted to say hello. She wore a mask to the side of her face so people wouldn't see her and when people wanted to talk to her, while she was at the booth, she went ballistic and told her to leave her alone and that she is NOT into comic books and they are for nerds. I have all the footage for this. What a Karen
The desire to attract new fans is the goal of any franchise. The difference with Disney, Kennedy and Headland, is that they say they're making a product to attract new viewers to the detriment and exclusion of existing fans, ultimately driving away the fanbase they'd originally intended to financially support the new direction.
Note to Disney: If you want to attract new fans, tweak a well written script to insert some interesting topic or thread, to which your targeted audience feels included, while staying true to canon in order to retain your fanbase- Not the other way round. You got what you asked for!
Its literally become a contest of ridiculousness and they're seeing how far they can go. They've never cared about star wars from the beginning.
That’s what happens when your woke agenda is more important than putting out a good product. It also doesn’t help when the “star” of the series insults the fan base every chance she gets. I canceled my Disney+ along time ago. If Disney keeps on this road I think they will find out that even they are not immune from bankruptcy.
She says its because the show has a “strong female lead” and people are mysogonistic about it. But then can she explain why stories like “Blue Eye Samurai” and “Arcane” are hailed as phenomenal masterpieces? When both have female leads? The difference is, those shows dont make their sex or sexuality their defining trait. And that’s what separates the fantastic modern stories from the trash like Acolyte. You cant even say Star Wars fans don’t like strong women. Look at Leia, Asajj, Padme, Ahsoka (before her show), Captain Phasma. All of them showed actual character development and proved to be exceptional parts of the Star Wars universe. The director of Acolyte is delusional.
I can't comment because I haven't watched it. Maybe that is the comment.

How are the amandala twins more diverse when they're both the exact same person? Would luke and literally any other person not be more diverse?
Love all the shows people are saying Disney ruined, but Disney doesnt own most of those. Ignorance is bliss
Everyone should start to refer to it as “Disney’s Star Wars: a fan fiction story”
For sure alternate universe
She is so spoilt with No clue!
Saying the fans are threatened by women goes to show she didn't watch even the prequel trilogy, clone wars or any good starwars shows/movies. Some of our favorite characters are women. Satine, padme, ventress, ahsoka, mon mothma and Leia. Difference is they were actually well written characters.
"The goal for us was to attract new fans" How did that work for you? 😂😂😂😂😂
Amazing how she did away with Padmé and Leia who everyone completely loved since their introduction
Because they aren't diverse enough. They are both straight White women. She'd be praising them if they were Colored, Lesbian women. Even harder if they were Trans too. She also stepped over Mara Jade Skywalker, Jana Solo, and Darth Zanna, and Ashoka and Ventress.
@@2495781she would also be praising them if they were diverse and gay and were 100 times perfect, completely flawless characters that would make the male characters look like bumbling idiots.
@@2495781 exactly🤦♂️
Don't put in trans women because trans women are biological men. Period.
But overall, all these original star wars movies already had diversity in them. This whole DEI bs is just a front for their "woke" mind virus politics and trying do force their idiocy and mental instability on the rest of the world.
Also, we have been saying this for years now and we continue to say it but they refuse to listen...All we want is some good storytelling, good character development and overall we don't want a constant reminder of how messed up the world is and virtue signaling when it comes to entertainment. We want to escape the world for an hour or two, not be pandered to on a 24 hour basis

Meh, she's young and learned a harsh lesson. Her abilities (or, rather, her lack of abilities) contributed to the overall failure of her show that has cost her millions in future income and her attitude and actions have rendered her unemployable in Hollywood. I mean, who in their right mind would hire this girl now? Her manager should be fired, she has been very poorly advised.
No anything Star Wars made by Disney is not canon. Anything star wars made by George Lucas is canon.
OMG - Princess Leia is the LEADER in the original trilogy rebellion HOW was that not belonging to women? BUT she was a great character played by a FANTASTIC actress! AND just for disclosure.... I AM A WOMAN!!!!!!!
Amandla (lol) needs to be reminded of a little saying, “The customer is always right”. If people think your product is trash they aren’t compelled to support it and blaming the customer will never turn out well.
When so many explanation are needed, that’ s the explanation about the failure. Succesful show are self explanatory, they do cater at audience’s feelings w/o explanations needed
*Insert "It's a bold strategy, Cotton" gif*
FUN FACT: 😂 Non - Jorge lucas films and shows are in fact just glorified Fanfics and the Acolyte is a Lesbian Sci-Fi Fanfic and are non-canon.
theyre not even fans tho/ no fans around this trash
Second... DEI Jedi sucks!
The KK and LH version of Star Wars should call them JDEI, not JEDI.
@@1Elohim1 that is hilarious!!!
All the people causing these disasters are so self entitled and arrogant. They don't realize that their careers are done. They are so mentally limited to understand that we are who pay a ticket or a subscription and can't force anybody to accept their "lectures" and mediocrity.
If the Star Wars fan base is really misogynistic and racist then how do these idiots explain the overall solid reviews by that same fan base when it comes to ‘Rogue One’, which had a female lead and a largely minority cast? They need to take responsibility for their bad writing, storytelling, character development and acting.
Yep, exactly
If she spent half the time she spends interviewing focusing on her shit projects maybe it wouldn't be such a sad and pathetic show.
I like to think that bob iger waited for them to explain how stone catches fire and without an actual explanation he called it quits. There's a limit to the amount of bullshit you can put on screen after all
Lol+!!! It was Leia who PURPOSEFULLY got taken prisoner, seduced the enemy with her provocative outfit and then STRANGKED JABBA to death with the CHAIN attached to her!!!
If.thats NOT GOOD storytelling and a strong female, then they are crazy
People watching a few episodes just to laugh at how bad it is isn't attracting new fans.
I believe the actress is insane! How in the world does she compare the dumpster fire she's in to the original Star Wars?.

@@Knihcaggin Blah blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
The people behind this show are in a creative world, and not everyone is going to like what they make. They seem to have a really hard time accepting criticism. I'm betting if they'd really taken to heart the feedback that their getting, they would have a completely different overall response, and they'd probably even have their second season if they learned from the mistakes they made. But they are so disconnected with the reality of it all. They can't imagine that their work is actually bad, and an incorrect interpretation of what Star Wars is all about. They are so frustrated that their message isn't being heard that they believe obviously the problem is with the fans. I have one thing to say to these creators: as Huey Lewis and the News said back in the 80s, sometimes bad is bad.
Lashing out at the hand that feeds you is not a great idea. Their way of defending their work is just getting them further and further into Hateland. There's a saying, "if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging."
It’s never been about gender? They just literally MADE IT that way wtf ?
Thanks for another great video, Mike
