Star Wars The Acolyte critic reviews are here with the show launching later tonight, and they're good? With a high Rotten Tomatoes score most of them like the show, until you read their reviews. Then it turns out they like more about the actors than the story, which they admit makes no logical sense, has pacing issues, and makes them feel nothing. Many of them say they love the murder mystery, despite that being solved in the very first episode? All in all very confusing, but there is some that showcase that what they really like is the switching to their new moral order without good or evil, to give them an excuse to seize power. All in all this is shaping up to be an interesting show, just because it might be honest about it's intentions. But what do you think about what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)

The menfolk cant oppress them, So the jesus black twins burned them to death while One sister was PMSing because her sister is a goal driven individaul
"Well anakin killed the whole death star". Tell me you never watched the original trilogy without telling me you never watched the original trilogy. Man I can't wait to hear their excuses when this flops. But who am I kidding this show is a literal definition of "dead on a rival".
Why wait? The excuse will be misogynistic men didn't support it, bigots didn't support it and Star Wars fans are the worst fans ever. The writers room isn't creative and they only have that one script to go to.
Ok, here we go... "Star what? What the hell does 'Jedi' mean?" I seriously haven't ever watched SW (just a few moments of the very first one) and I'm perfectly fine with that...
I kinda hate that interview alot cause its causing a lot of my friends to do the same brain rot talking points that seem like their just for the point of being contrary then actual critical thinking. Is Vader the villain? Yes. Did Luke blow up the Deathstar killing millions that were stationed on? Yes. Was it Justified? YES! Vader blew up a planet of billions just cause he wanted Laia to give up the rebellion and was about to blow up the planet they were on next.
*I do have to admit, I didn't know 1.5M ppl were on that thing.* Not saying it was immoral, planets are much more dense. Just that, you REALLY need that many people in that type of technological society? Why not bots? Computers, robot arms? Kinda odd. 1.5M seems like family, friends, librarian, etc. on a warship.
Honestly, I could even overlook that part, but the show itself just seems to be bad. And I personally hate the notion of "we need more women in Star Wars" - there have been very important central female characters in Star Wars. In the old stuff and the EU. Same with characters of color, heck we even had green and blue? I think the one article Disparu showed nailed it: the show will be hated by every pre-Disney Star Wars fan. That is enough to know what is going on. It has nothing to do with Star Wars, and everything with their agenda and preaching. Just that this time it is trying to hide in Star Wars clothes instead of Indiana Jones, or the MCU, or or or or Don't get me wrong, I think Hedlund should not be able to work in Hollywood anymore, since a male person in her position clearly would not be able to work. But even if you overlook that, the show is propably just bad like most things Disney did.
Heck, I stopped my cannon at Return of the Jedi. The original trilogy is where it ends for me. People keep on talking about new Doctor Who episodes and as far as I know, they stopped four seasons back.
@@stephenthomas1492 The old Expanded Universe did actually do justice to the original trilogy. Luke founded a new jedi order, got married, and had a kid, Han and Leia stayed together, and a lot of interesting adventures were had. Hence, why Disney threw all that out the window and shamelessly stole ideas from the EU to bastardize.

One of the morons giving this a 4/5 claim that "Rotten Tomatoes Certified" is a major sell for their CV. These are just volunteer shills hoping for a free month of D+ out of it.
Don't you know that expecting them to deliver a quality product is oppressing them because of their gender? Your are the patriarchy I tell you! The patriarchy!
Maybe they didn't even write it. Maybe Hollywood has a bunch of writers locked in a dungeon and they write this badly on purpose hoping we'll realize something is wrong.
Minds fed on tapioca & pablum do not learn to have talent. Todays 'creatives' can't understand that tapioca is not spicy no matter how much they chant that theirs is.

"when anakin killed a bunch of children, was it good or bad, i mean whos to say? where would one even begin to draw the line between killing kids, and not killing kids"
Apparently back during the Nightmare on Elm Street saga, some of us were ironically rooting for Freddy and some of us were unironically rooting for him.
I see it as an expensive fan fiction of Leslie’s creepy queer diary. Which is why they add that it needs world building….it’s her world and it’s perfect for Disney’s Star Wars cuz it checks boxes and it’s dead already.

They keep pushing these, "Evil isn't so evil and Good isn't so Good" themes and terrible stories with bad plot structure on Children and if kids are watching that stuff they forget the love and fantasy of storytelling and entertainment. Blocking out the boredom with nihilism and drugs.... oops im projecting....
They’re just trying to preach their religion. All that matters is how they feel and what they think and how everyone else is wrong and reality is whatever they pretend it to be.
That type of idea can work if you're willing to write it well, which the writers of this show can't do, and what becomes of it is an agenda pushing type of show
@ilyte1 But their version of "nuance" is more like a cliche or tired out theme with several movies back to back to back. Not even realistic or relatable, just cringe worthy and pitiful. Just "Demonstrate" other ideas that inspire kids, not depressing or boring them into a glorified lessons that nobody cares about anymore.
It can work if someone knows how to properly use nuance in a story. Unfortunately, nuance and moral ambiguity are not something ideologues do well. They are quite terrible at it. Ideologically driven writers just aren't capable of writing a complex story and characters because they are too narrow-minded and see everything through the lense of their ideology. They can't tell a story from both sides because they only want the message of their side to be the one that is focused on and received.
I think i finally put together why that line, " its about power and who can wield it" bothers me so much. These people dont care if good or evil is being done by those in control. They only care about the perception that the correct people hold power, regardless of what is done with said power. I cant help feeling this is a result of the 'relatable villain' trope and these people frying their brain to the point they xan no longer recognize that evil comes in all forms, skin tones, and sexualities
It's also a dedication to Neitschze and Marxist dichotomies - modern Marxism has moved past economic classism to whatever power dynamic they can get their hands on. For instance, just replace "power" with "oppression" in the quote, and it won't sound that far away from some CRT manifesto. It's all the same stuff repackaged again and again and again.
"The series tackles themes of identity crises, structural misogyny..." Leave that shit to a psychology and sociology textbook, a Star Wars movie should entertain, for f... 's sake.
Technically, the second death star could have blown up by a chain reaction caused by Anakin throwing The Emperor down the shaft. But that is me making excuses, for a person who obviously never watched any of the star wars movies,,,, sober. More likely it was Lando Calrissian, blowing up the core.
Can we be honest? The Acolyte was made for a handful of people. Leslie, K.K. and their own tiny clique. So, it wasn't made for me either or the vast majority of humans on Earth.
This is why just “moving away from the Skywalkers” isn’t going to fix anything. They messed up the Skywalker timeline and they’ll mess up any other timeline(including the Old Republic with Revan). Also, Filoni isn’t the “Star Wars savior”.
These people can’t write anything good no matter what they do or how hard they try because they are nothing but ideologues who only know their religion.
@@jeremyallen5974 He was another narcissist lot that wanted to turn Star Wars into his own image. I wish I saw what was truly going on many, many years ago.
Star Wars has become a mediocre franchise that failed to utilize it's huge potential in terms of storytelling and worldbuilding because of the people at the top. Loads of stuff they could do with new and unique stories in different places of the galaxy from all kinds of perspectives, but they're simply too incompetent to go that route and the simple audience of today can't fathom the idea of moving away from the Skywalker lineage.
American media "nuanced takes" generally end up being a character doing horrible shit, being completely selfish but they have a tragic sob story as background. I doubt this will be any different.
You have to realize that this isn't for you. It's for kids. Always has been. If you're a 'fan' perhaps that's the problem that most immediately needs to be addressed. Fanaticism is always a bad thing. Fan girling over a franchise meant for children is proper gross.
@@williamhutton2126 you have to realized even the kids don't want this. They like the Prequels and the OT which their parents introduce. If this is for "kids" only, how do these franchises get past down. This is a rather silly argument. Without your die hard fans who have children btw, some of these franchises will be dead in a generation.
You should stop letting it depress you. Depressing you is how they win. You can determine for yourself when the actual franchise ended, and treat everything after as completely non-canon garbage.
"This series is not only a slow burn, but the characters are somewhat bland amongst the dull pacing and convoluted plotting not typical of space operas. BUT! It doesn't have any filthy Hu-White males in it, so it's the best Star Wars yet. 4 of 5 stars."
Here is my recipe for cake with just 3 ingredients: Water, Mud and Gravel. Now, it may be not a traditional way to make cake, but it is more accessible to non-bakers. While the taste could be described as "horrible" or "disgusting", it's refreshing to see new ways to prepare an dish many would only associate with "tasty" - a deeply offensive stereotype using food as a gateway into right-wing culture.
I'll do you one better. Here's my recipe for apple pie with dog fecal matter instead of apples. My "creative direction" gets more people talking about it than yours. Some of them even yell at the top of their lungs after a taste! And as Rian Johnson showed us, getting people "talking" is the only metric upon which to judge the quality of an entertainment product.
I long for the days when "fantasy/scifi story written by a woman" meant Anne McCaffrey and the Dragonriders. It is actually pathetic how small Headland's imagination horizon is.
You need functioning brain cells to have an imagination...the very limited number Headland has are still fantasizing over what she helped Harvey Weinstein do...
@@Xbalanque84 this is what most people still apparently don't understand. There is zero purpose in arguing or trying to persuade the other side anymore, they do not operate on logic, logic is literally racist.
The funny thing is that the sith dont deal with their trauma, their whole power base is determined by how much they twist their own trauma and pain and anger into its most toxic form and then never let it go

So pretty much the exact mindset of the "Modern Audience" they are courting with the show. Woke = Sith, makes sense to me.
Reminder: she thought _Frozen_ was about incestuous lesbian romance. Her RL sister refuses to speak to her. _The Acolyte_ is apparently a message/love letter to that sister. _DO THE MATH!_
@@Xbalanque84 At least the sister seems based. If she's staying as far away from Leslie as possible, that's a good sign. Any sane person would, especially after finding out her association with good old Uncle Harv.
The problem is that, as George Lucas said, most people do not understand the nature of the Force. Most people think there's a Lightside and a Darkside of the Force. In fact, there is only the Force. The Darkside is not an aspect of the Force, it is a corruption of the Force. The Darkside is like a cancer of the Force. Bringing balance to the Force doesn't mean a balance between the Lightside and the Darkside, it means an absence of the Darkside. Think of it like a balanced diet; it doesn't mean and equal amount of food that's good for you and food that is bad for your health. As for the "Lightside' of the Force not being a thing in George Lucas Star Wars, compare the number of times in his movies in which a character reference the Darkside of the Force and how often they mention the Lightside of the Force. You'll find that, while the term "the Darkside" is used many times, not once is there a reference to "the Lightside". For example, when Luke is explaining to Leia in Return of the Jedi that he has to confront Darth Vader, he doesn't tell her that he can turn him back to the Lightside, he says he can turn him back to the good side. That was a deliberate choice George Lucas made so people would understand that there is just The Force and that the Darkside is a corruption of the Force, not an aspect of it and not a part of it (just as you wouldn't consider a cancer a part of your body, you would think of it as a corruption of you cells---which it is). I only know this because I saw a video of George Lucas explaining it to Dave Filoni (who obviously didn't listen or didn't understand or didn't care) when they were doing the Clone Wars series together.
Q: Anakin blew up the death star how many people died from that? A: Anakin never blew up a death star, his son Luke certainly did. Anakin blew up a robot factory ship as a kid in a Naboo starfighter in Phantom Menace with about two to eighteen actually living people on board from the Trade Federation as biological skeleton crew, the rest of which were droids which are iffy on if they are alive or not by personality. Said factory was hovering off the planet of Naboo and invading it. When the first death star blew up, it didn't kill nearly as many people as the whole population of the planet of Alderaan combined, including making millions of species of animals native to the planet made almost immediately extinct, the food production that helped feed the surrounding galaxy if you considered the many species of native plants that also possibly went immediately extinct and there's also the possible damage from a solar system collapsing from suddenly missing the gravitational strength of a single planet that caused even more damage to the solar system Alderaan was in and possibly other surrounding solar systems. Essentially the Empire took a nuke to peaceful protestors and expected no one in the galaxy to rebel against them because of it out of fear.
Hedland was around some of the greatest trauma hollywood has exposed. How is she part of a matriarch society when she was leading women to slaughter essentially by being an assistant to a monster. The irony.

She sat by and heard sobbing and saw women leave violated and never said a word..... What was that saying they loved to spout? Oh yes. Silence is Violence. So why haven't the woke strung her up for the ultimate betrayal of women and remaining silent the whole time?
These media reviews should be called Part 1 Reviews. Part2 is 6 months down the line when they can come clean about the show after it flops and they can be honest then.
Did you not read legends at all? There already was such a being in legends. Abeloth. Although I wouldn't expect you to know about that as you aren't an actual star wars fan.
@@DarksideGmss0513 lol okay, gatekeeper - youre right though - I'm only a fan in the sense that I watched the original three films like a hundred times, more than 15 years before that book was even written.
Huh, I read a ton of the books (nearly everything that had been released, I think) up until around when the New Jedi Order series of books were being released. Read some of those but kinda stopped keeping up with the books around that time. So that was about 10 years before the release of anything mentioning Abeloth, apparently. Reading a bit of a wiki page about her though, I see that she's related to something that I remember coming up in Rebels when Ezra found his way into that place outside of time. Didn't know when I saw that episode what that Father/ Son / Daughter mythology they found was supposed to be about. Also, from what I'm seeing in this wiki entry she is not "The Force", she is a formerly mortal person who became a dark side Force ghost. (Although I guess she does sound like the type to claim to be the voice of The Force itself to sway followers to do her bidding?) Interesting to read that a Killik hive had a hand in trapping her after she became like that. I didn't know that they had appeared anywhere outside of SWOTOR... Ah, they first showed up in books that released some 5-6 years after I stopped paying attention to the new releases.
The "dont watch it, touch grass" tactic worked so well for Disney Dr Who that the Coprolyte decided to use it too? It's a bold strategy, Cotton... * Coprolite = fossilized turd, I took artistic license with the spelling.
Actual cannonical power. Cuz Anakin/Vader has no father. I think Palpatine's Sith teacher pointed at Shmi Skywalker and yelled Shazam! Why a downtrodden woman on Tatooine? No clue.
YF had a video today that showed the Rolling Stone article with the not so sparkling Acolyte review Disparu refers to later showed that article as 404. Not sure if it was a hiccough, Disney came down on them hard or it's being rewritten. But something dodgy is going on.
... it's a prequel? THIS IS A PREQUEL!? BRILLIANT!!! Flashing back to the Jodie Whitaker Doctor saying she was an upgrade, then realising not only did they get rid of the upgrade, they literally rolled back to a previous version.
The "Anakin killed the Death Star" dude is the same person that said that the best part of SW is that it isn't about good vs evil, it depends on what side you're standing on. lol
Yes, cause clearly the Rebels, modeled after American Patriots, the Jedi, modeled after Buddhist monks and medieval knights, are totally the moral equivalent of the Empire, modeled after the Third Reich, and the Sith, modeled after Satanists…
Men spend 40 years building up a property with worldwide appeal based on universal concepts like courage, choosing the difficult path, devotion to principles, and personal sacrifice for the greater good. Women take it over and everything in the galaxy becomes about her personal angst regarding whether she's being respected as the glorious queen she believes herself to be.
And they identity with the Sith because they love them bad boy Sith. Carrie Moss' character is at that age where she's asking "Where are all the GOOD Sith? I'll settle for a Jedi imp now..."
I ageee they fucking the IP but that’s cap. Star Wars has always been about blurring the lines. Anakin was a guy who did it for love, Doku did it for Justice, and the council did it in the opposite direction they allowed Anakin mother to be a slave and eventually be killed because slavery was legal. That’s why the best Jedi left the council behind or rebuilt it.
Another quality piece that again made me both laugh & ponder, as we look on at the mass hara-kiri we're witnessing from Hollywood right before our very eyes 👀
"This is about power and who is allowed to use it." Who the heck talks about being "allowed" to use power? Only someone who wants to gas light society into not holding them to the same standards as others.
@@ThespianPrince13 I had never envisaged the Sith, those arch fiends of malevolence as people complaining about being oppressed. But now you mention it, I start to see the parallels.
They’re ridiculous that they think being special and having the force somehow makes things not equitable. It’s because these very people making it aren’t special and have to make up all these terms for themselves, don’t think it’s fair people are born with inherent advantages and think they must apologize for it. Not only that but they must not use their advantages because it’s not fair to their boring/unspecial asses.

@@Maria_Banks….. George literally sold Star Wars to White Slavers….his words. ….but hey, selling things to White Slavers isn’t considered evil in Disney Star Wars 😂
'The Acolyte focuses on inter-relational transgenerational discourse, interspersed with eclectic diverse uncommonalities, at risk by matriarchal twinned transpositional paradigms, counterbalanced by, yet simplistic prophetic inspirational feminine anti-political dogmatic patriarchies; but at its base, it is a fresh simple story about sisterhood and family...'

I listened to that interview a couple of times, because my brain just would not process what she was saying. When it finally sank in that she was viewing Frozen through a lesbian romantic lens, I understood The Acolyte was going to be the product of a twisted and ill mind.

Star Wars, one of the most successful and beloved movies in history, was not deep and nuanced but it blew our minds. I saw it seven times at the cinema and drive-in. I'd hazard a guess to say that most people saw it more than once. In short, it was what the audience wanted to see. Over and over. It had good guys and bad guys. It had a wise mentor and a naive student learning to harness his power for good. It had a powerful and menacing villain. It had a "bad boy" with a heart of gold. It had a feisty heroine who was nevertheless feminine. It had two sidekicks for comedic relief. It had good ultimately triumphing over evil. None of these things were revolutionary. The only groundbreaking thing was that it was set in space and had the most advanced special effects of its day. But that was just a background to the most important thing - a ripping good yarn brought to life with three charismatic leads who bounced off each other and got on with buckling their swash without stopping to tick a lot of meaningless boxes along the way. Exciting story, great casting = good time. Simple really.
The music you have around the 8 minute mark is a masterstroke of real subtlety and nuance congruent with your comments and the mood that goes with them. Brilliant!
These DEI companies can buy all the likes and good reviews they want. In the end they can't fake the bottom line. We just have to wait a little longer to witness their massive L.
I've noticed a trend of everything involving a woman centered story involves women's desire for undeserved power. Lack of a hero's journey Lack of character development Lack of depth Modern film is like modern art...trash!
5:03 You really gotta stop and wonder why they just never STOP calling them 'queer' relationships, no matter how much they insist it's 'normalised' now.
Was she really doing anything before Matrix 4? She's familiar but affordable talent and taking any roles she can before her agent can't find her roles anymore.
Remember, Rotten Tomatoes also gave The Last Jedi a 91% and Kenobi an 82% (both are literally more highly rated than movies like Fight Club and Scarface)…
When they said "Anakin destroyed the Death Star", I didn't even notice that this was wrong, so one might think I would be the perfect audience for this show. However that is not the case, I simply don't care about it.

They keep pushing these, "Evil isn't so evil and Good isn't so Good" themes and terrible stories with bad plot structure on Children and if kids are watching that stuff they forget the love and fantasy of storytelling and entertainment. Blocking out the boredom with nihilism and drugs.... oops im projecting....
There are many valid criticisms of this show. But being pissed off if they demonstrate nuance and moral complexity is not one of them
They’re just trying to preach their religion. All that matters is how they feel and what they think and how everyone else is wrong and reality is whatever they pretend it to be.
That type of idea can work if you're willing to write it well, which the writers of this show can't do, and what becomes of it is an agenda pushing type of show
@ilyte1 But their version of "nuance" is more like a cliche or tired out theme with several movies back to back to back. Not even realistic or relatable, just cringe worthy and pitiful. Just "Demonstrate" other ideas that inspire kids, not depressing or boring them into a glorified lessons that nobody cares about anymore.
It can work if someone knows how to properly use nuance in a story. Unfortunately, nuance and moral ambiguity are not something ideologues do well. They are quite terrible at it. Ideologically driven writers just aren't capable of writing a complex story and characters because they are too narrow-minded and see everything through the lense of their ideology. They can't tell a story from both sides because they only want the message of their side to be the one that is focused on and received.
I think i finally put together why that line, " its about power and who can wield it" bothers me so much.
These people dont care if good or evil is being done by those in control. They only care about the perception that the correct people hold power, regardless of what is done with said power.
I cant help feeling this is a result of the 'relatable villain' trope and these people frying their brain to the point they xan no longer recognize that evil comes in all forms, skin tones, and sexualities
Pretty much.
As ever, style over substance, aka _a lie._ The cosmic foundation of evil.
I think someone is utterly oblivious to irony.
It's also a dedication to Neitschze and Marxist dichotomies - modern Marxism has moved past economic classism to whatever power dynamic they can get their hands on. For instance, just replace "power" with "oppression" in the quote, and it won't sound that far away from some CRT manifesto.
It's all the same stuff repackaged again and again and again.
Well said…only the correct people can be in power.

Technically, the second death star could have blown up by a chain reaction caused by Anakin throwing The Emperor down the shaft.

I wish I saw what was truly going on many, many years ago.
Star Wars has become a mediocre franchise that failed to utilize it's huge potential in terms of storytelling and worldbuilding because of the people at the top. Loads of stuff they could do with new and unique stories in different places of the galaxy from all kinds of perspectives, but they're simply too incompetent to go that route and the simple audience of today can't fathom the idea of moving away from the Skywalker lineage.
American media "nuanced takes" generally end up being a character doing horrible shit, being completely selfish but they have a tragic sob story as background.
I doubt this will be any different.
its so depressing that they wont stop abusing the fanbase and raping a good franchise so it can preach at us
No matter how many fans this IP leaks, they keep doing the same shit.
*This is the gloating of a conqueror.*
You have to realize that this isn't for you. It's for kids. Always has been. If you're a 'fan' perhaps that's the problem that most immediately needs to be addressed. Fanaticism is always a bad thing. Fan girling over a franchise meant for children is proper gross.
@@williamhutton2126 you have to realized even the kids don't want this.
They like the Prequels and the OT which their parents introduce.
If this is for "kids" only, how do these franchises get past down.
This is a rather silly argument.
Without your die hard fans who have children btw, some of these franchises will be dead in a generation.
You should stop letting it depress you. Depressing you is how they win.
You can determine for yourself when the actual franchise ended, and treat everything after as completely non-canon garbage.

Now, it may be not a traditional way to make cake, but it is more accessible to non-bakers. While the taste could be described as "horrible" or "disgusting", it's refreshing to see new ways to prepare an dish many would only associate with "tasty" - a deeply offensive stereotype using food as a gateway into right-wing culture.

Ah but what is good and evil, when you think about it.
It was deliberately released in June so it would have some "armor" against critics. It's laughably calculated.
The problem is that, as George Lucas said, most people do not understand the nature of the Force. Most people think there's a Lightside and a Darkside of the Force. In fact, there is only the Force. The Darkside is not an aspect of the Force, it is a corruption of the Force. The Darkside is like a cancer of the Force. Bringing balance to the Force doesn't mean a balance between the Lightside and the Darkside, it means an absence of the Darkside. Think of it like a balanced diet; it doesn't mean and equal amount of food that's good for you and food that is bad for your health. As for the "Lightside' of the Force not being a thing in George Lucas Star Wars, compare the number of times in his movies in which a character reference the Darkside of the Force and how often they mention the Lightside of the Force. You'll find that, while the term "the Darkside" is used many times, not once is there a reference to "the Lightside". For example, when Luke is explaining to Leia in Return of the Jedi that he has to confront Darth Vader, he doesn't tell her that he can turn him back to the Lightside, he says he can turn him back to the good side. That was a deliberate choice George Lucas made so people would understand that there is just The Force and that the Darkside is a corruption of the Force, not an aspect of it and not a part of it (just as you wouldn't consider a cancer a part of your body, you would think of it as a corruption of you cells---which it is). I only know this because I saw a video of George Lucas explaining it to Dave Filoni (who obviously didn't listen or didn't understand or didn't care) when they were doing the Clone Wars series together.
Q: Anakin blew up the death star how many people died from that?
A: Anakin never blew up a death star, his son Luke certainly did.
Anakin blew up a robot factory ship as a kid in a Naboo starfighter in Phantom Menace with about two to eighteen actually living people on board from the Trade Federation as biological skeleton crew, the rest of which were droids which are iffy on if they are alive or not by personality. Said factory was hovering off the planet of Naboo and invading it.
When the first death star blew up, it didn't kill nearly as many people as the whole population of the planet of Alderaan combined, including making millions of species of animals native to the planet made almost immediately extinct, the food production that helped feed the surrounding galaxy if you considered the many species of native plants that also possibly went immediately extinct and there's also the possible damage from a solar system collapsing from suddenly missing the gravitational strength of a single planet that caused even more damage to the solar system Alderaan was in and possibly other surrounding solar systems.
Essentially the Empire took a nuke to peaceful protestors and expected no one in the galaxy to rebel against them because of it out of fear.
Hedland was around some of the greatest trauma hollywood has exposed. How is she part of a matriarch society when she was leading women to slaughter essentially by being an assistant to a monster. The irony.
She sat by and heard sobbing and saw women leave violated and never said a word.....

Huh, I read a ton of the books (nearly everything that had been released, I think) up until around when the New Jedi Order series of books were being released. Read some of those but kinda stopped keeping up with the books around that time. So that was about 10 years before the release of anything mentioning Abeloth, apparently. Reading a bit of a wiki page about her though, I see that she's related to something that I remember coming up in Rebels when Ezra found his way into that place outside of time. Didn't know when I saw that episode what that Father/ Son / Daughter mythology they found was supposed to be about. Also, from what I'm seeing in this wiki entry she is not "The Force", she is a formerly mortal person who became a dark side Force ghost. (Although I guess she does sound like the type to claim to be the voice of The Force itself to sway followers to do her bidding?) Interesting to read that a Killik hive had a hand in trapping her after she became like that. I didn't know that they had appeared anywhere outside of SWOTOR... Ah, they first showed up in books that released some 5-6 years after I stopped paying attention to the new releases.

Yes, yes Turner's visible confusion when her character is compared to the night sisters is priceless.
Men spend 40 years building up a property with worldwide appeal based on universal concepts like courage, choosing the difficult path, devotion to principles, and personal sacrifice for the greater good. Women take it over and everything in the galaxy becomes about her personal angst regarding whether she's being respected as the glorious queen she believes herself to be.
😂👍
And they identity with the Sith because they love them bad boy Sith. Carrie Moss' character is at that age where she's asking "Where are all the GOOD Sith? I'll settle for a Jedi imp now..."
Nicely put.
Cluster-Bs: *NOT. EVEN. **_ONCE!_*
I ageee they fucking the IP but that’s cap. Star Wars has always been about blurring the lines. Anakin was a guy who did it for love, Doku did it for Justice, and the council did it in the opposite direction they allowed Anakin mother to be a slave and eventually be killed because slavery was legal. That’s why the best Jedi left the council behind or rebuilt it.
My favorite part was when Yoda sent Frodo to destroy the Dial of Destiny in the fires of Mustafar.
Another quality piece that again made me both laugh & ponder, as we look on at the mass hara-kiri we're witnessing from Hollywood right before our very eyes 👀

Star Wars, one of the most successful and beloved movies in history, was not deep and nuanced but it blew our minds. I saw it seven times at the cinema and drive-in. I'd hazard a guess to say that most people saw it more than once. In short, it was what the audience wanted to see. Over and over.
It had good guys and bad guys. It had a wise mentor and a naive student learning to harness his power for good. It had a powerful and menacing villain. It had a "bad boy" with a heart of gold. It had a feisty heroine who was nevertheless feminine. It had two sidekicks for comedic relief. It had good ultimately triumphing over evil.
None of these things were revolutionary. The only groundbreaking thing was that it was set in space and had the most advanced special effects of its day. But that was just a background to the most important thing - a ripping good yarn brought to life with three charismatic leads who bounced off each other and got on with buckling their swash without stopping to tick a lot of meaningless boxes along the way.
Exciting story, great casting = good time. Simple really.
The fact that Disney keeps trying to push evil is just one of the
