    Update: "Vergence" Points or "Nexus" Points DID exist in Canon... So, I take that BIG L. However, the inclusion that they can be used to "create life," as far as I know right now, is still new. I had heard the stories about Coruscant being built on a Force Nexus before. Tython also has a Force Nexus, but I've never heard of them having the power to "Create Life." I was under the impression they were supposed to be locations on planets where the Force was amplified. I also hadn't heard them be referred to as VERGENCE points. So, maybe it's not the BIG L, but a Little L, nonetheless.

      The whole show is mystery boxes. It's trying to play up the miscommunication as nobody is a bad guy, but it's evident the crisis occurred because of how the witches interpreted the Jedis motives. They will still want to play up that Sol leapt to conclusions to keep the 2 sides narrative. Which they already tried to do with the "well some cultures do that"

This series has shown a complete lack of respect for the source material, the fans and the general audience that watches this demanding they just turn off their brains and accept what is happening without seeing it with a critical eye or questioning anything that is going on lest they be labeled toxic or any number of other pejoratives for having spoken up.

There is also short green grass, that has been either mown or eaten by sheep. If the planet is uninhabited, it must surely be covered by an impenetrable jungles, and yet this is clearly an environment shaped by humans for centuries. There's nothing alien about this landscape at all. Whatever the showrunners spent the $180 million on, it certainly wasn't backgrounds!

That's it. I'm done. I'll always have real star wars, I don't need to watch this shit." I closed the window I was watching without even finishing the episode, and I haven't watched any disney star wars since.

    Only when the Jedi are written contrary and antithetical to their established characteristics and ethics can moral ambiguity be introduced. The writers don't appreciate even the most basic concepts surrounding the issues and ideas they are writing about. When a mature person chooses a serious vocational path to follow, as both an occupation and future way of life, they are usually aware and resigned to the fact that they may no longer have a permanent home base per se and can be transferred to various new and/or repeat locations at a moments notice, for an undetermined amount time, because as someone who's life is now about service to others, you understand it's not all about you.

      Indara committed Genocide and then tells the council a literal CHILD did it
      The only ones who weren't in the wrong by any means are the witches anyone who tries to defend or justify the Jedi actions in this episode has questionable morals and probably does wrong in their personal life
      You can't justify them even Intruding and breaking and entering why did the Jedi feel the need to protect children that were clearly being well taken care of ? Because their way is the only right way? We see that in religion too often and how bad it ends up

      Kelnecca is the only Jedi absolved of any responsibility and the only that did nothing wrong
      These poor witches were massacred and their children kidnapped by the Jedi and then Sol brainwashed that Little gurl when she wakes up to believe her twin sister is evil just because he's DESPERATE for a Padawan

    after seeing that movie , it all settled, and I gave up on the Star Wars world.
    I did catch the last two sequels on TNT... made no sense at all. Palpatine was supposed to have died, if he did not then everything in the first three movies was in vain
    at best, a hoax at worst. Both the final two of the sequels were nonsense to me.
    I was never a fan at the level I am seeing in these reviews, loved the first three movies, liked the next three, didn't like the last three (spawn of Disney?). Since the TV
    shows are all Disney+ only I never was exposed to them - seems I may not have missed anything at all, right?

    These people have proven they're only capable of writing stories from the perspective of a narcissist. They self insert their own beliefs into anything they do. Even if they get the chance to work from a pre-existing beloved story, they cannot help themselves. They seem incapable of putting their personal bias aside so they could try to convey an artistic story that's outside of themselves. They have proven time and time again that they are not capable of doing anything even remotely close to good storytelling.. (which is weird because that should be one of the most important attributes that a director or a developer or an actor has in order to be successful at their job....?)
    How is there no one that will fire these people who openly hate the fans, who openly don't like the source material and have admitted they haven't looked into the source material. They openly express hate towards the consumers who are the one's who have made their success possible in the first place..
    This show comes off so cheap & tacky.. It's not just the terrible writing & terrible acting. It's horrible set design, horrible world building, horrible camera work. It all makes this show feel so small. Like it's filmed in a single green screen room.. Grasping at awful CGI techniques to try and force any bit of a false reality into this mess of a show.
    It's so far from Legitimate Star wars movies that it feels as if this whole thing is a big parody.. A very expensive parody..

    The one critique is a jedi totally would have climbed the mountain without a second thought. It is stupid but I've never heard anyone accuse the jedi of only making smart moves. I mean sometimes they're so detached that they just let themselves die, for what I see as either being some giga brain force influenced chess move to allows them to win later (which is stupid) or just giving up letting the next guy try.
    Unfortunately, I have one scenario that I think would explain the mist bull. Most powerful force users are specialized. Anikin was strong wielding the force, Mace was the best duelist, some can read minds or are especially sensitive to others' emotions like Yoda. What if besides the life making power, her only ability is strictly mental, and they all saw her turn to mist as a mental concealer so they couldn't follow her or the daughter while she tries to help them. But couldn't react in time or just didn't think that the jedi would actually strike first. which he technically did.

    7/8 episodes in and we already have a clip show. I stand by my prediction that this is ALL a dream after the initial meeting with the jedi, it's ALL in their heads, and next ep they wake up the girls are still kids, everyone's alive the girls stay and the jedi negotiating peace with the witches to investigate the Force on the planet. Qimer is just momma teaching her babies to watch out for bad boys.

    Again, side-stepping the Destruction Crew, the reason they've collecting straw/samples of the life that had been created - and metal-detecting might be tethered to them collecting samples across a series of months on the planet. If it was STAR TREK, there'd be a Science Survey Team that would be sent to do this and I'm CERTAIN that some of the people in white outfits we've seen in STAR WARS are far-better "suited" for doing this series of tasks.
    It's just stupid that they can't simply detect the life forms, and then track them to see where they go and focus their efforts THERE and even ask questions, rather than just "seek out new life and new crops..." :)

    I don't think that the twins birth takes anything away from Anakin. The twins were born WITH the force, Anakin was born BY the force. The difference is that the force itself made the decision to create Anakin, the witches USED the force to create the twins. And just in case people get the wrong idea, I absolutely cannot stand The Acolyte. Boring, poor acting, no substance or story, and the ridiculous is off the scales. A lightsaber whip? Get fucking real.

    Bro, after all the videos I've seen on this show, it took watching your video to realize this: The Hackolyte should've been in the future, set after The Sequel Trilogy; if this absolutely had to be made - and it did, b/c Lesliar Headlump has dirt on too many people from her days at Miramax, so this had to be made - this happens in the distant future. 86 Ki Adi Mundi; focus on a small pocket of Jedi who hid, somewhere in the galaxy, choosing not to fight, or some bullshit; that small pocket of Jedi emerge to bring balance; this show focuses on their descendants. Now, what's been done is offer Disney-Lucasfilm a vast open space to tell whatever stories needed to go from Rey Palpsmeartine to The Hackolyte; much like how they are exploring "the time before time", rewriting Skywalkers, they would be able to fill in the gaps of their own nonsensical messterpieces, via movies, and such. But, hey! That's just a theory- An extremely expensive creative theory, should anyone at Disney-Lucasfilm be reading this, and then running with it.

    This space mining company must be designed by the guy who would later go on to build the Death Star because who knew that setting stone on fire would blow the entire place up.
    Jokes aside.
    Torbin wants to go home.
    The Jedi Council tells them to pack it up and return home immediately.
    Torbin then jumps on a speeder bike to go get the girls so they can go home.
    (BTW, thanks to shit writing it's a 5min trip from one side of the galaxy to the other.... Torbin and friends could have gone home for the night and been back in the morning no problem.... so his I wanna go home arc is rather moot.)
    The ONLY way this makes sense is if there was a reshoot/ADR change. Torbin is reacting to the old script and the Council saying they couldn't leave without the children.
    They had to leave this crap in to set up the hint that Torbin feels responsible for events leading up to all the Space Witches deaths...... which had he just waited an extra 30min.... Mae would have killed them all anyway with the burning rocks.

    Disclosure I can’t stand the acolyte and have not watched the actual episodes since episode 3 but I get my info from wonderful TH-camrs like this wizard. That said I have read the high republic books and they are actually interesting. That hyperspace disaster line was so disrespectful to the fans of those books. Basically the hyperspace lanes were still being explored and researched and a group of pirates were able to interfere with them. Said pirates found a way to have 2 massive ships collide within hyperspace causing massive chunks of debris to pop out of hyperspace all over the galaxy(the great hyperspace disaster), some of which smashed into planets and cities. The Jedi were the ones to help stop and predict where and when pieces would fly out of hyperspace. The books have zero interactions with sith and mainly show how the Jedi travel the galaxy and helped individual planets with pests such as pirates. Verns master is one of the main Jedi in the books and he’s an absolute G and Vern in the show does his memory so dirty. Not saying read them but they have genuinely good writing that doesn’t interfere with any of the 6 main movies. Much love y’all 🤙🏻
