    I'm actually quite pleased with the, "Evil Couple," ending. Plagueis was likely on the island spying on Qimir's activities on behalf of their shared master, Darth Tenebrous. Qimir is Venamis, the second "false" apprentice of Tenebrous, and the acolyte is about Venamis rebelling against Tenebrous and failing. This story comes from Legends, which is where Disney gets all their story ideas.

    My theory is that Plagueis learns of how the twins were created in the Force and that would give him the idea of manipulating the midichlorians to create Anakin.

      Yes, Plagueis was doing all that, except his grand experiments failed and backfired on him in the end. Then, the Force ultimately decided to create Anakin.

      I think the current canon is that actually he didn't create Anakin and they made that clear. That it were Anakin's fears that he and Sidious created him, but I remember that was debunked. In Legends he also didn't create him. Anakin was created by the Force as an opposition to his experiments. So he was responsible, but not his creator at all.

      Plagueis tried. But the Cosmic aspect of the Force (which had an aggregate will, as opposed to the Living aspect of it) was what created Anakin. I think they also follow this in canon.

    On why did Basil disabled the ship, should the question be not why Basil was trying to save Mae? but was Basil trying to prevent Sol from flat out murder? I think Basil was the only "good" guy in this situation. On Yoda, I never felt that he believed the prevailing history that the Sith was "extinct". Mace was not believing they were back, but Yoda said, "difficult to see the dark side is". He wasn't surprised at all.

    When Venestra uses the Force to open doors, that is a most un-Jedi like behavior. “A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.” Or, use the Force in vain.
    Recall how Anakin used the Force to serve Padme a piece of the fruit. He had told her that Obi-Wan would be very upset with him should he seem him using the Force in that way.

    • @thesharpercoder
      @thesharpercoder 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Bazil’s actions are puzzling, but there is a logic behind what he is doing. He is trying to stop Sol from succumbing to his emotions. Osha did the same when she stopped Sol from killing Qimir out of anger.

      @@TheMovieCouple it hasn’t been confirmed officially yet, but since the viewership and engagement metrics look pretty solid (almost certainly, the suits do not look qualitatively at that stuff, it’s just quantitative. It’s why shows like Velma got a second season, because people hate-watched it into being) the best bet is that yes, we’ll probably get a second season. I’m doubtful about a third because I expect a negative bounce in engagement for a season 2 once the chuds realize their hate watching and rage farming are a huge part of the show getting a season 2, but I do think at least a season 2 is likely. Personally, I hope Hanelle Culpepper (director of ep 6 and 8) is handed the primary directorial duties if they get a second season, because I thought her work was SUPERLATIVE. Chris Cowan and his team need to ALREADY be on retainer too, the choreo work in this season was incredible. I especially loved the wuxia influence in this ep, a lot.

Darth Plagueis... was a Dark Lord of the Sith so powerful and so wise, he could use the Force to influence the midi-chlorians... to create... life. He had such a knowledge of the dark side, he could even keep the ones he cared about... from dying."

    This finale and its setups for the next season actually gave me some pleasant surprises and the events I predicted were executed very well. For example, Osha being the one to kill the last of the four Brendok Jedi without a weapon, and a Force choke at that. Bonus is actually seeing a Kyber crystal literally bleed itself to crimson, with very precise framing. Pleasant surprise is the two halves reconciling under the tree, with Qimir letting Mae live after hearing what Sol said about them being halves of one person instead of twins, and also because he realized Osha wants Mae to live, even if she would forget. This is a Star Wars where the antagonists arent cardboard cutouts. Here's to Season Two ~

  • @justdumbstuff6591

    I might be dumb, but why would they end the season with everything on a bow? shouldnt they leave some things to be worked on a possible future season?
    Also, the book about Plagueis is not canon as far as I know so dont bet on that story to know where they are gonna take the character. And they also dont need to follow it. I dont get why would they explain their relationship on this one episode, while they could explain his presence in a full season later.
    I dont think Yoda was in on the cover up, but he is about to be. That to me was what was hinted. Also, it doesnt contradict it, since Yoda knows about the rule of two, and Vern only knows her stundent went turn to the dark side, she doesnt know that he is a sith, and the Jedi who knew is dead.

      It's still not clear that they know there's a Sith involved. Sol never reported it. The other Jedi died. Mae's memory was wiped. Pip's memory may be incomplete. Who knows what Basil would tell anyone.
      Vernestra knows a powerful force user, weilding a lightsaber, killed them and suspects it's her former pupil. That still implies a rogue Jedi, without more context.

    Qimir will end up being Plagueis Apprentice and he's the one who killed him Palpatine will be Qimir's student. The Plagueis novel will be completely retcon.

    I feel Yoda was the one that made Vernestra tell the Senate what happened, even though she lied to cover her own student turning to the dark side. Also, I think it now makes more sense when Yoda and Mace have their "always two there are" conversation in Episode I. If there's a season 2; Manny and Osha will be stopped and Yoda and the council will assume the issue is resolved, unaware that Plagueis is also around, freeing him to then train Palpatine.

  • @ECA2
    @ECA2 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    It's possible that Qimir is just a dark jedi who is devoted to the darkside of the Force and isn't Sith. It's obvious that he and Venestra had an issue. The Sith in this time are Tenebrous, and Plagueis who are experimenting with creating life using the Force. The Witches guided by Aniseya succeeded in accomplishing it. Darth Plagueis appears to be investigating a lead. Star Wars canon has many gaps concerning the dark jedi, especially in this era.

    Hey Movie Couple and thanks for sharing your reaction and takes with us you guys are always really thoughtful with your discussions 😃👍 I re-watched the entire series yesterday and gotta say that the pacing issues I found with watching in weekly episodes were far less apparent when seen like this. I think next season they should do fewer but longer episodes of 1.5-2.0 hours like a miniseries. It still didn't change the main problem for me though in that I didn't find the twins compellingly written or performed unfortunately. I actually felt like Sol and Qimir were the main protagonists which I don't think was meant to be the case. That said the acting from Master Sol, Mother Aniseya and Qimir was top notch and the fights/action were some of the absolute best in live action SW in my opinion. There were also some fascinating story elements and seeing a kyber crystal being bled, cortosis being used against the Jedi, Darth Plagueis in the flesh, Vernestra's lightwhip and a Wookie Jedi going on a rampage was such a treat! A mixed bag of a series for me but I'd still be there for season 2 ✌️😁 ##istilllovestarwars ❤

    Assuming that we get a season 2, I like the cliffhanger. Keeps you waiting for what's to come giving you something to be excited for.... also assuming they leave the cringeworthy parts of this season behind. The first half of this season was pretty meh in my opinion and that third episode was pure cringe. Once they let Qimir off his leash it was mostly on the up though and there is a lot for them to work with going into a second season.

    Mater Yoda will know that her apprentice is the real responsible, a fallen jedi, not a Sith per se.... I also had my doubts about Plagueis intentions, is he Qimir master?, if he is, maybe he is not ok with him having an acolyte?, or they don't even know yet? something cool is that Qimir learns the vergeance theory in that moment and he could be who tells Plagueis about it.... keep rocking and stay safe....!

    The Jedi did know about the Sith. Yoda and Mace Windu were aware of them during Qui-Gon's funeral. They could not have known about the Rule of Two unless the Jedi had encountered Sith after the Jedi-Sith War. It did not exist prior, being created _in secret_ by Darth Bane. So there is no Sith history book they could have gotten that info from. I don't understand why everyone just takes a line from Ki-Adi Mundi, but ignore Yoda and Mace. It may be that only Grand Masters are privy to the knowledge.

  • @thegreatjedi309

    Under the Rule of Two, it's normal for Sith Apprentices to take their own students, but they're not considered true Sith. This student wouldn't be Sith until the Apprentice defeats the Master and ascends to become the new Master, or if the Master defeats the Apprentice in his coup and chooses to accept the student as the new Apprentice.
    Maybe Qimir is the true Sith Apprentice, taking Mae/Osha on as his student, or maybe Plagueis is the Apprentice here, and Qimir is merely a student taking on his own student. Note the careful choice of words here: Acolyte, not Apprentice. Osha's not Sith, but she's on the road of potentially becoming one, as long as Qimir successfully becomes Sith Master. Most likely, however, Acolyte S2 and beyond will show how Qimir and Osha are ultimately defeated, paving the way for Plagueis to take on a replacement apprentice: Palpatine.

    About it being incomplete. Star Wars is a homage to old serials. Even the movies are basically important episodes of an arc in a season put together. They all left off on a cliffhanger. And that's where TLJ went wrong. Continuing right after the previous story. This season did resolve the issue at hand. What you are wanting is the introduced stuff that had nothing to do with the main story.

And ofc, the reveal of Qimir. The other "loose ends" arent really that, but threads meant to connect the first season with the second.

    After all, I liked the series, but it did have its flaws. And I don't think the Jedi were portrait like how they are. I know that they're flawed, but in my head, they wouldn't decide like that.
    Why would they blame it on Sol, it doesn't really make sense. Well okay, maybe if Venestra aims to turn his former student back to the light and that's why she didn't tell anyone.

Why do they have to keep taking beloved, established characters that have been part of the lore for ages; and then tweak them to how they want?
    I would have absolutely gotten into this if it was just about the new, original characters, and Darth Plagueis was NOT included.
    Its like when you look at Luke Skywalker, they purposefully character assassinate him, make his Jedi Order a complete failure. Just so that they can bring Rey in and have her steal Luke's thing from the comics.

      If you made a "Star Wars Anthology" adaptation one year, then about 2 yrs later you make a totally ORIGINAL STAR WWARS MOVIE.

    Perhaps the most disappointing part of the show is that the Jedi do not feel like the Jedi of the high republic era that this show is supposed to take place in. These feel almost entirely like the Jedi we knew in the prequel trilogy, ones who fell victims to their own hubris and hypocrisy.
    The High Republic era Jedi were more like Star Fleet from Star Trek: TNG, acting more as explorers, negotiators and guardians who protect the people without imposing their will or authority around, these felt more like cops trying to protect their image and reputation rather than doing the right thing because it’s the right thing.

    We never really get an explanation of Qimir’s journey to the dark side and who teaches him (sure we can assume it was Plagueis), we never seen how Mae and Qimir meet. How did Qimir know about Jedi lying to Osha? Did Mae tell him? What was the role of the vergence in the creation of the twins and how?
    The show needed a tighter execution and wrap of this current season. I’m all for a future season where we see Plagueis more or Qimir and Osha training or Vernestra training Mae to to go after Qimir or the political fallout of this event, but... what about this season? You got to make a stronger case for this season rather than saving it for a possible next one we may never get.
    Also, Osha and Mae seemingly flip flopping every other scene was annoying. I’m all for conflicted characters who waver, but this story takes place over a week? And we have Mae being with Qimir, betraying Qimir to turn herself into the Jedi, no, not gonna go surrender herself to the Jedi, ok, gonna run off with Qimir, but wait, can’t so going to mind wipe and turn herself over to the Jedi.
    Same with Osha. I want to be a Jedi, but Qimir’s swolness is tempting me, but she killed my friends and I’m not as weak as my sister, no wait, I’m with Qimir... no, I’m not, I’m going to tell the Jedi and turn myself in, no, let’s mind wipe my sister and I’ll be your student.
