Honestly, Jar Jar as a character at least tried to get better and be less silly as the story went on. He went through some character development and shifted from pure comic relief. He was a fool, but he made the effort and tried to get better.
To be fair, it’s just one episode, so only about $22.5 million… which means these first three episodes cost more than what it took to make the original Star Wars, even when adjusted for inflation!
Each episode of the Acolyte cost about $21 million. It's looks like dog shit, with cheap set designs, customers and garbage writing. Each. Episode. The Expanse, one of the most highly rated, polished and well-written science fiction shows on Amazon cost between $2 to 3 million per episode. Let THAT sink in.

Not to mention the fact that they completely re-written what the witches were originally described, as in illustrated in Star Wars. Instead, they try to copy and paste literally every foreign stereotypical Strope, and of course, fail at it all at the same time. If you wanna know what the arm gestures that they’re doing originate from, it’s not something that’s made up in their heads, because it derived from a part of Buddhism involved a form of meditation. The practice is only used now for celebrational show that is related to Indonesian and Thai culture . It’s also used in Laos for celebrational dance within their own traditions. But the choreography of it is extremely different from what is being shown in the video, and to be honest is god awful.
Manipulating life with the force is called Force Alchemy. Its the very reason The Jeh'dai broke into two separate camps to begin with. What these witches did is create life with the force. Similar to what Plagis TRIED to do and failed, but caused the force to answer back by creating Anakin. So yea, the witches were messing in the force's domain. A very sithy thing to do.
What's worse is realizing Disney's utmost disregard for the franchise and its rules by delegating success to an nearly-impossible task to a coven of random witches who do not sound very bright. It's self-entitlement at its very core.

And they managed to conceive two children through the force on purpose meanwhile Anakin's entire conception was a freak accident indirectly caused by Darth Plagueis. And i say freak accident cuz it's very much implied that Anakin's conception isn't something that could be replicated on purpose
Anakin’s birth was actually a freak accident. Plagueis and Palpatine were originally using the Dark side to attempt to create a weapon to destroy the Jedi. The Force itself intervened during this and did what Plagueis and Palpatine wanted, creating Anakin, only the Force did this for the purpose of Anakin to destroy the Sith as the Chosen One and in a twist of karmic fate toward the Sith. …at least, that was supposed to be how it happened and how the story should have ended. And then came the Sequel trilogy, and all the madness and chaos, including this show, that would follow
It was stated in a novel that Plagueis and Sidious at some point performed a dark side ritual, sith alchemy. This wounded the force itself, this has happened before in the era of Darth Revan. The force then acted against the sith and created Anakin the prophesied chosen one. Star wars theory brings up this point in his video on episode 3 of the acolyte. Would recommend watching, the video not the show.
Anakin murdered children and was complicit in the death of billions That “Bring balance and chosen one” shit only makes sense if the balance he brought was by killing all the jedi Throwing one old man down a pit doesn’t balance shit, dig it?
@@jacobdill4499 I believe it was I the novel, Star Wars Darth Plagueis. It might be canon? The story focuses on Plagueis and Sidious. Another great novel I have personally read is Star Wars Red Harvest. A story set in the time of the old republic, on a sith planet with zombies created by mad science and sith alchemy. This story is Star Wars legends.
@@supermanprime6758 yeah that's exactly what balancing the force meant. Post Anakin becoming Vader only 2 true jedi and 2 true sith remained... at least until all the eu additions that see vader hunting jedi for a while after his rebirth as a cyborg.
How the hell has Kennedy and her lacks not been fired yet? Seriously they lose billions for Disney at this point. What the hell does she had on Iger that lets her stay? This is the only thing i can come to given how bad every Star Wars project has been. There is no other questions needed to be asked.
Remember when Heath Ledger's Joker burnt a pile of cash and said, "it's not about money, it's about sending a message" This is what is going on. You think Disney or anyone in the top echelons of American liberal society give a fk about money, when the Fed can keep printing as much money as it wants to and keep funding them? This isn't about the money because they don't need to worry about money. This is about sending a message. And the message is quite clear, isn't it?
The company loses money But their funds are separate from the company. They’re still getting paid, and they’ll fund that into other things. The company is just a thing for them to build from anything. “Disney” is not a person. It’s a body infected with parasites looking to only feed themselves until it’s used up and decayed, then it’ll latch onto a new body
Makes you wonder what's really going on. Shareholders (aka. rich people) generally aren't stupid, generally don't like watching their investments lose value & confidence, etc., yet that's exactly what's happening here. Why?
Just a reminder this show cost $10 million less than Dune Part 2. This is painfully bad and quite honestly outside of money laundering I don't know how this gor made.
In the RotS novel Anakin didn't care about the rank of Master. The only reason he wanted it was because only Masters could enter the Jedi Archives, and he wanted to get into the Archives to look up ways to save Padme. The movie didn't do him any favors by leaving that part out.
George didn't do Anakin many favors either by chosing to make him petulant in the movies. Anakin in the Clone Wars is an amazing character, and even though you know he has to fall you still kind of want him to pull through it all.
They have now completely destroyed Anakin Skywalker and his character's legacy. His sacrifice meant nothing and his back story is no longer even unique.
This is worse direction, than the Yakety Sax chase, between child Leia and Flea’s gang. Both shows were given to people, who just weren’t qualified to show run and direct an entire Star Wars show. The direction of dialogue, feels like a bad first timer.
The fact that the chant and dancing was so spotlighted means that in Disney's evil twisted mind that was going to become iconic and we were gonna get people at comic con performing it massively and singing "the power of one the power of two Jada Jada"
I just don’t understand how these people who are in charge of the Star Wars IP have no desire to continue the rules and continuity of established lore. You could still tell all of these female centric stories within the established lore. Why transform it into nonsensical trash???
Because you have to treat down everything that came before so you can remake it into your (perfect) vision. "Let the past die, Kill it if you have to" is actually just their philosophy spelled out.
Took me a bit, but I figured out what the chanting scene reminded me of You ever see those group therapy sessions? Usually all women, 15 or 20 maybe, in some kind of public place, chanting some poorly thought out affirmation of some kind, at least 2 of them are convulsing for seemingly no reason? Yeah. That.
It's just hard to wrap my head around this.. think about it; at least a hundred people involved in the production and marketing, saw this and everyone went "yea, this is good, let's go with this."
The thing no one seems to understand about these characters is that the filmmakers view horrible characteristics as positive traits, while the rest of the planet sees them as the grotesqueries they are. And then are confused by how we're supposed to sympathize with clearly evil people.
@@JustinTrudeau1971 Nah even if you're not logged in. You can type "I love the Acolyte" or "The Acolyte is actually good!" or "The Acolyte is the best show ever" etc literally nothing.
the scene from the intro bit, it's like watching people who took their ayahuasca trip WAY too seriously and they feel the need to act like that for the rest of their life
They really thought this was high art didn't they? They been trying to replace Anakin and every male lead for a while now. That will bring in the views.
In Shatterpoint(which should hopefully still be canon) Mace Windu goes to Haruun Kal and runs into this tribal chief that literally taps into the dark side and draws power from the actual jungle they are in. He only went there because he was told his student fell to the Dark side and was there. There are definitely plenty of non-Jedi force users that are left alone unless they do something bad. Btw that is one of the best Star Wars books ive ever read, if you want something to cleanse your palette of this filth please read that book.

Hey, running & scissoring is dangerous....Cringe.
“Listen, listen Ray! You’re chanting. You’re chanting! I’m not listening, anymore, Satan is good, Satan is your pal…”
The burbs......a movie about 1000x superior to whatever this is.
Sardine?
@@HansKlopek Its ok i called the pizza dude
And they managed to conceive two children through the force on purpose meanwhile Anakin's entire conception was a freak accident indirectly caused by Darth Plagueis. And i say freak accident cuz it's very much implied that Anakin's conception isn't something that could be replicated on purpose
Anakin’s birth was actually a freak accident. Plagueis and Palpatine were originally using the Dark side to attempt to create a weapon to destroy the Jedi. The Force itself intervened during this and did what Plagueis and Palpatine wanted, creating Anakin, only the Force did this for the purpose of Anakin to destroy the Sith as the Chosen One and in a twist of karmic fate toward the Sith.
…at least, that was supposed to be how it happened and how the story should have ended. And then came the Sequel trilogy, and all the madness and chaos, including this show, that would follow
Woke agenda dont care
"Against the assault of laughter, nothing can stand." -M. Twain
It was stated in a novel that Plagueis and Sidious at some point performed a dark side ritual, sith alchemy. This wounded the force itself, this has happened before in the era of Darth Revan. The force then acted against the sith and created Anakin the prophesied chosen one.
Star wars theory brings up this point in his video on episode 3 of the acolyte. Would recommend watching, the video not the show.
Anakin murdered children and was complicit in the death of billions
That “Bring balance and chosen one” shit only makes sense if the balance he brought was by killing all the jedi
Throwing one old man down a pit doesn’t balance shit, dig it?
Which novel & is it Legends or Disney canon?
@@jacobdill4499 I believe it was I the novel, Star Wars Darth Plagueis. It might be canon? The story focuses on Plagueis and Sidious.
Another great novel I have personally read is Star Wars Red Harvest. A story set in the time of the old republic, on a sith planet with zombies created by mad science and sith alchemy. This story is Star Wars legends.
@@supermanprime6758 yeah that's exactly what balancing the force meant. Post Anakin becoming Vader only 2 true jedi and 2 true sith remained... at least until all the eu additions that see vader hunting jedi for a while after his rebirth as a cyborg.
@@supermanprime6758Darth Sidious was the imbalance in the Force and Anakin brought the balance by killing him.
"we were hunted because some people thinks our power is dark" Said the same cult wearing dark outfit and communing at a dark place
:Dd
How the hell has Kennedy and her lacks not been fired yet? Seriously they lose billions for Disney at this point.
What the hell does she had on Iger that lets her stay?
This is the only thing i can come to given how bad every Star Wars project has been. There is no other questions needed to be asked.
She knows the truth about Heather O'Rourke
They want agenda not money
Remember when Heath Ledger's Joker burnt a pile of cash and said, "it's not about money, it's about sending a message"
This is what is going on.
You think Disney or anyone in the top echelons of American liberal society give a fk about money, when the Fed can keep printing as much money as it wants to and keep funding them?
This isn't about the money because they don't need to worry about money.
This is about sending a message.
And the message is quite clear, isn't it?
The company loses money
But their funds are separate from the company. They’re still getting paid, and they’ll fund that into other things. The company is just a thing for them to build from anything.
“Disney” is not a person. It’s a body infected with parasites looking to only feed themselves until it’s used up and decayed, then it’ll latch onto a new body
Makes you wonder what's really going on.
Shareholders (aka. rich people) generally aren't stupid, generally don't like watching their investments lose value & confidence, etc., yet that's exactly what's happening here. Why?
Just a reminder this show cost $10 million less than Dune Part 2. This is painfully bad and quite honestly outside of money laundering I don't know how this gor made.
Even after everything Kennedy has done to Star Wars, Yoda's speech still gave me chills.
In the RotS novel Anakin didn't care about the rank of Master. The only reason he wanted it was because only Masters could enter the Jedi Archives, and he wanted to get into the Archives to look up ways to save Padme. The movie didn't do him any favors by leaving that part out.
Anakin always had a drive for power and pride
George didn't do Anakin many favors either by chosing to make him petulant in the movies. Anakin in the Clone Wars is an amazing character, and even though you know he has to fall you still kind of want him to pull through it all.
It's like we walked into the wrong genre.
Looks like Star Wars is finally getting its She-Hulk moment
They have now completely destroyed Anakin Skywalker and his character's legacy. His sacrifice meant nothing and his back story is no longer even unique.
It's not you know you can have your own headcannon right
@@brettdavidson3866 Everything after Revenge of the Sith is BAD fan fiction
But Anakin destroyed a bunch of innocents on board the Death Star, so what they’re doing is justified… 🤦♀️
@@Nanixashi That was Tarkin.
@@englishlady9797 Read it again. He said the Death Star, not Alderaan.
I feel like they tried to steal the beniJesuit from Dune but they only read half a wiki page about it...
Gee it's not like star wars was originally a dune ripoff or anything
Bene Geserit
“BeniJesuit” you sure you know how to read there buddy?
@@TheSuperappelflap thank you!
@@jamesgrisham6827 are you? Someone already corrected me🤨😂
"The cringe will be with you, always." 😅
This is worse direction, than the Yakety Sax chase, between child Leia and Flea’s gang.
Both shows were given to people, who just weren’t qualified to show run and direct an entire Star Wars show.
The direction of dialogue, feels like a bad first timer.
Yakety Sax!!Reminds me of when they played it in V for Vendetta!!🤣🤣🤣
The bad dialogue sounds like ChatGBT got some really bad prompts and no one knew better!
Forget the fire extinguishers. How did a candle set fire to a stone and metal building? They're not flammable.
The real heroes here are indeed the editors...
i felt a great disturbance in "the thread", like many powered off their TV
The fact that the chant and dancing was so spotlighted means that in Disney's evil twisted mind that was going to become iconic and we were gonna get people at comic con performing it massively and singing "the power of one the power of two Jada Jada"
I never thought I'd live to see the day that Star Wars got a show that's the equivalent of The Rings of Power, but I'm not entirely surprised.
HotD about to hand out a ratings and pop culture impact wupping to this shitshow
The witches are dressed like they are sponsored by crown royal.
I just don’t understand how these people who are in charge of the Star Wars IP have no desire to continue the rules and continuity of established lore. You could still tell all of these female centric stories within the established lore. Why transform it into nonsensical trash???
Narcissism. That and the dogmatic view that everything created by a white man is bad and must be destroyed.
Because you have to treat down everything that came before so you can remake it into your (perfect) vision.
"Let the past die, Kill it if you have to" is actually just their philosophy spelled out.
reading the lore time frome sosial media and to resetrictive . its to hard to try to fitt my woke story in to the lore
Literally 50+ years of books and comics with better female/minority/whatever creations and stories.
My favorite was when the one lady yelled and cackled and no one else did, and then they played the sound bite of it again 2 seconds later 😂
HAHAHAHAHAHOOOOOOO
It's such a meme sound, idfk how they expected that to be taken seriously.
Took me a bit, but I figured out what the chanting scene reminded me of
You ever see those group therapy sessions? Usually all women, 15 or 20 maybe, in some kind of public place, chanting some poorly thought out affirmation of some kind, at least 2 of them are convulsing for seemingly no reason?
Yeah. That.
"I grew up surrounded by scissors." Bob Feta, probably.
It's just hard to wrap my head around this.. think about it; at least a hundred people involved in the production and marketing, saw this and everyone went "yea, this is good, let's go with this."
This reminded me of the Charmed series,"The power of three" only that one was 100 times better....
Miss the OG charmed. Was a bit cringy at times, but still 100 better than this and 90 times better than the "remake".
There’s no way a show could be worse or more of a slap in the face to fans than “Rings of Power.”
And yet…here we are.
Honestly I thought the Witches all offed themselves, like they went full Wako.
Freud explains A LOT. Jeez, those people need therapy before taking head of any multi-million hollywood movie production.
The thing no one seems to understand about these characters is that the filmmakers view horrible characteristics as positive traits, while the rest of the planet sees them as the grotesqueries they are. And then are confused by how we're supposed to sympathize with clearly evil people.
Unlike the showrunners YOU have a problem: you know Star Wars
Ricky G laughing made me laugh. 😂
I literally haven't seen a single positive take on this show on TH-cam. I've been searching. Not one.
Oh you can find it. You have clowns like the Reel Rejects having positive takes and some other Disney Shills.
I haven’t either. I’m wondering if it’s an algorithm thing but every single video skewers this show.
@@JustinTrudeau1971 Nah even if you're not logged in. You can type "I love the Acolyte" or "The Acolyte is actually good!" or "The Acolyte is the best show ever" etc literally nothing.
My favorite part was when Boba Fett said the sea is always right
The worst part of this whole thing is when the rest of them sing the word "Many", a few of them are singing flat. and it kills my ears.
The Office: “Scott’s Tots” triggered the most secondhand embarrassment ever.
Acolyte: Hold my green milk.
The power within…
The power within…
…
*BY THE POWER WITHIIIIINNNNN*
That “one, two, power of many” ritual reminds me of a kindergarten teacher teaching her class how to count. 😂
The force went from new age spiritualism with purposeful mysticism and vagueness to some kind of Burbank, CA cult.
the scene from the intro bit, it's like watching people who took their ayahuasca trip WAY too seriously and they feel the need to act like that for the rest of their life
They really thought this was high art didn't they? They been trying to replace Anakin and every male lead for a while now. That will bring in the views.
In Shatterpoint(which should hopefully still be canon) Mace Windu goes to Haruun Kal and runs into this tribal chief that literally taps into the dark side and draws power from the actual jungle they are in. He only went there because he was told his student fell to the Dark side and was there. There are definitely plenty of non-Jedi force users that are left alone unless they do something bad.
Btw that is one of the best Star Wars books ive ever read, if you want something to cleanse your palette of this filth please read that book.
Where to start with the acolyte? The power cord to your screen and pulling it out of the wall
These people have no idea what Star Wars is about, right?
There's no way they know what they're doing. No way.
What is it about?
Its about taking your money. They did it.
They have no problem with it. Stop buying into Disney. We complain and complain but why should we.
Starwars ended in the mid 2000's when clone wars died. Were the ones paying for this
The power of one... The power of two... The power of maaaannyyyy... ahhhHH \o/ - gynocentric matriarchal sisterhood
One, two...uh, many. I see these witches are all powerful but basic numeracy is a bit of a problem.
yeeyeeyeeyeeyeeyeeyeeeeee!🤮
@@faeembrugh in many (ancient) cultures, there is a large number synonymous with "many", e.g. 10'000. But I don't think any real culture stopped counting after 2. That's literally r-....
this will haunt me forever .
Honestly for the first time I'm starting to genuinely consider my star wars fandom like it is really worth it at this point
I mean and I literally mean that even a bad show like book of boba fett looks like a gem in front of this.
I swear to god, that “power of many” clip is so far removed from Star Wars… it simply cannot be canon… it can’t. I won’t believe it… I REFUSE to believe it…..
Leslye and Kathleen have DESTROYED what was left of Star Wars… and it wasn’t much… hooooly shit, I need a pallet cleanser after watching that vomit inducing bilge…
Firefly, my shiny friend. That'll do 'er. Go watch Firefly... and pray they never try to reboot THAT for a "modern audience".
We all owe a Holiday Special an apology.
Not me, I always liked it. It's at least legitimately funny ON PURPOSE.
It's not implied they were created with the force, it's outright stated.
I love to watch these breakdowns because the answer is just so obvious, that woman (if you wanna call it that) just hates the franchise and wants to see it burn. And Disney is allowing it
If this is peak star wars they can have it
I'm gonna need a restock of my bar if I'm going to sit through episode 4. I can't watch this show while being anywhere near the zip code of Sober.
I couldn't be on the same PLANET as sober. Pity I don't drink anymore....
The story feels like it was written by middle aged women trying to be one of the cool kids and dont realize how cringe they sound
Just wait until episode #4, when they lose their power because it's that time of the month for the thread.
"My name is Legion, for we are many." Sound familiar?
These witches so flammable even their concrete burns.
