A character defined entirely by gender; ironically the one he doesn’t have. The name is “Sister”, the armor is trans flag (…from Earth), and Anakin called her “transcended gender”, while gently shaming himself and others for not grasping sooner how special this “clone” is. “Why should we fail to appreciate your uniqueness?” or some such propagandist drivel. Kinda makes it sound really awesome to be a transcended gender…a special person with special privileges. Now would be a great time for people in the trans community to speak up about how they feel about “Sister.” I bet the shallow pandering won’t impress many, and these days that’s all they’ve got, (besides unwarranted accusations and fan blaming).
I cannot express how sick I am of being called a sexist, racist and homophobic, everytime I complain about bad character writing and appalling story telling.
Apparently this thing has existed since 2022 in some Padme related novels that I don’t think anyone actually read, since everyone is shocked to learn this clearly defective trooper exists
I remember watching that when it came out and I loved it but I was eight and it was literally made for me, and now it holds a nostalgic place for me but I can totally get why some fans hate it. "The Acolyte"TM doesn't even have that excuse, it's just bad so yes it is objectively worse than the Star Wars Christmas Special.
I watched the Holiday Special a couple of years ago. It's honestly not even THAT bad 😀. Yeah, it's full of cringe and cornyness and most of it is not even actually "bad", it's mainly boring, but at least it's earnest in what it does. Maybe my standards have been lowered so much these days because of the slop Hollywood keeps spewing out, but yeah, I'd actually watch the Holiday Special again. I'd never ever watch Book of Boba Fett again, for example. I'm sure I'd say the same for The Acolyte, but I'm not gonna bother watching it.
When Skeleton Crew fails they'll continue to use toxic fandom as a shield. There's no getting through to them via constructive criticism. Hurting their cash flow is the only way to make them listen now
the whole reason for this is so sinister. They are all doing DEI because Vanguard and BlackRock will give them cheaper interest rates and they are borrowing this money from what? your 401K. so you wanna stop DEI, pull all your money out of Vanguard 401K accounts and it will stop. its that simple.
Yeah I’m certainly done with Star Wars, after the Acolyte I have no more faith in it anymore. Until Kennedy leaves then I will not watch any new Star Wars projects.
Welcome to the club of star wars apathy. My turn point is after the rise of Skywalker and the announcement that whatever comes after, everything will led to the rise of Skywalker. If all leads to that terrible ending, the none of the show is worth watching.
@@gregorysaugustine5236 I did like Mando season 1-2, Ahsoka and Andor but the rest of the shows were just major let downs are just down right disgraceful to the fans
@@wazzawarrior5715 I usually waited until the show's last episode if there is any good scene or important scene that I'd like to see. So far, the only scene I like is when Luke Skywalker saving the Mando crew along with the Death trooper theme.
Yeah I like the Mandolorian seasons 1 and 2 but after that and everything else eeeeehhhhh to this current day and age the only thing Star Wars related I even bother to look up is fanfiction related stuff not this garbage Disney is shoving down our throats and up our asses.
It's hilarious watching these people continually act shocked that fans aren't buying things that they have strong negative opinions about. It's almost like "fan" is short for "fanatic", that fans have been known to act this way for half a decade, and that fans are customers who aren't legally or morally obligated to spend their time and money on a product.
The trailers for Skeliton Crew showed me that it's a show for children, So there would be no reason for me to watch it. they said it was goonies and stranger things in space. that doesn't sound interesting to me. I don't think that the demographic is large enough to make it a win. but we will see.
I’m done with SW and toys, I canceled my subscription to Disney Plus. The same with GI Joe toys, when they killed off Duke. Everything in this world sux, even the toys.
With DEI, don't think, don't ask questions, don't say you don't like the products. Otherwise they will argue that you are a bad person and try to attack you on social media
Apparently this IS what happened. A bad (costly) example of GROUP THINK. There was nobody allowed to question or critique the script etc. They had the High Ground (pun intended) as far as morals went. Their social politics etc. How could it possibly be unpopular? 🤦♂️
If The Acolyte was a train wreck like you say, why was it the most watched new show on Disney Plus? According to Disney, The Acolyte was the most watched new show on Disney Plus for 2024. I loved it. It was different.
I'm noticing a pattern of women actors lashing out whenever their shows or movies fail. Almost like they think that having a temper tantrum will change things.
Why can't they just treat it like just a business L? It didn't turn out well, no one liked it, they could have just accepted the loss and moved on. It was the constant rebuttals and accusations against the critics which destroyed them. Without that, the damage could have been far less.
Lost did DEI decades ago far better than Disney could ever hope to do. Sayid, from Iraq, Jin and Sun , Korean, Mr Echo, African. All fascinating characters with proper story arcs. Acolyte was bad and lazy writing. That's all.
I checked out of Disney Star Wars when they fired Gina Carano and I only came back briefly just to watch Bubba Fett only to be disappointed and back into actually being checked out of Star Wars again because they told me my criticism didn’t matter and I was like ok bye 😆
Who cares what they say? Ahh her role failed well that's Hollywood baby "Its not about money, its about sending a message" The boycott is over, the apathy has set in "Apathy is death"- kriea, KOTOR 2
Refusing to watch a bad show is not a boycott .. lol .. the show was garbage. "Space Lesbians" is literally my favorite category .. how do you mess that up?
The show was not good at all. The wooden acting, cringy dialogue, nonsensical plot lines to name but a few and I dont see anything on screen to justify a 200mil + price tag. Why don't they just accept that it was a flop and move on rather than keep droning on about 'Oh the fans are racist bigots' etc etc. Its getting so old.
I’d like to see a second series of Acolyte with a new show runner, writer, producer, EP, and no Kennedy. I want more Qmir and would love to see more Darth Plagiues. A set up like that just cannot be forgotten.
Guys, it's already too late. There was a time you couldn't keep me away from STAR WARS. Now, I just don't care about it. STAR WARS died with the sequel trilogy. WILLOW is dead. The utterly absurd INDIANA JONES 5 flopped. The GALAXY STAR CRUISER HOTEL flopped. THE ACOLYTE was an absurd abomination. I just have NO interest in SKELETON CREW.
Who is funding all this crap makes me wonder?. I mean they are burning billions on this crap just at Di$ney but these companies act like they have a scrooge level piggybank to haul from.
every fandom has toxic fans in it that nearly get a stroke as soon as a non white or trans or whatever actor or role is presented in any movie or show. thats a fact. and sometimes, those people are WAY louder than they should be. that a fact. but the acolyte was a complete shitshow. yes, some people were against it, because it was diverse, but the people mostly dislike the show because its just that: a shit show. so yeah, insulting the audience might not be the best course of action here. but what do i know? i dont like the series, so i must be a biggot racist then, i guess.....
Here is my perspective on Star Wars. I count Episodes 1-7 canon, disregarding 8 and 9 is the best way to overlook the misery studio execs actors and producers have thrown the franchise into since “The Last Jedi.” The very title of episode 8 is a wrench compared to the first seven as “last jedi” is Luke Skywalker, the character behind “A New Hope’s” title and the symbolism behind “The Return of the Jedi’s” title. Each of the preceding seven titles references a person or event which was best not returned to in later titles. However, Episode 8 by mere title is indicative of titular stagnation or staleness. All that being said, I’ve recently watched “A New Hope,” and “The Empire Strikes Back,” and later entries do not damage them or “Return of the Jedi,” from an individual, subjective or personal basis, at least from me. Of course in the realm of production and marketing, little can be done to rectify all the took place after episode 7. However, I like to stop with Episode 7’s ending and consider nothing else in terms of story, and that the saga ends on a happy cliffhanger and not progresses to the levels of sacrilege wrought by the filmed entries of episodes 8 and 9.
I mean Obi Wan was nothing but about a minor Force weilder (how she became the #2) [without Sith Eyes] going around planet to planet screaming "Obi-Waaaaaan" and trying to strong arm these other characters that were already established and clearly could have mopped the floor with her. I would have loved to see her try to one-up the 9th Sister and see her get curb stomped. Absolute disappointment... Let's not talk about bare fist punching a storm trooper...
Can you say career suicide. Do the work and move on. Now your just making yourself a lightning rod for attention. Jodie you dont even know the plot of your show just look at your interviews. This is the nice version Ma'am enjoy the thread while the true fans have the force good day
The writing is bad they clearly got the wrong people to work on the show. Instead of talking the blame for their failure they are talking their anger at us. They won’t admit they did a terrible job on the show. They won’t admit their writing was bad.
It doesn't sound like you're walking away if you plan on watching skeleton Crew, even if you don't think it'll be good. The answer is to stop watching. If you don't like it. Everyone said the acolyte was going to suck before it came out and yet everybody watched it so they could complain about it. Watching it is giving them ratings
Y’all hear about the Stupid trans clone trooper she made?
And she thinks its the Greatest thing ever
the WHAT
Remember, that this was all due to Kathleen Kennedy and Leslie headland who was the pocket girl for Harvey weinstein and able to help him 😅

the boycott exploded more with Kathleen Kennedy trying to introduce a Trans Clone Trooper
True, the boycott sparked many different conflicts
Apparently this thing has existed since 2022 in some Padme related novels that I don’t think anyone actually read, since everyone is shocked to learn this clearly defective trooper exists
Is it racist if us black folks think Crapolyte is hot garbage? Because collectively, we agree that it's a dumpster fire 🔥🗑️
The Left uses Uncle Tom as an insult towards black people who dont bend the knee, so no, they would still be the true racists.
No it's not racist
It's also racist to Force a group of people (blacks, whites etc) to like and dislike certain things
If I were a Disney shareholder, I would be very angry.
the clowns are clueless go woke go broke
The Star Wars Holiday Special is better than Acolyte
Agreed

At least they fixed the holiday special by turning it into LEGO. I don’t think you could do that with acolyte.
The Cartoon-Portion is really good and the Jefferson Starship Song legitimately slaps.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result
I don't see how Star Wars could be fixed. The people at Disney have made so many bad decisions, the lore is totally screwed. Rest in pieces.
This is like saying that people hated the Prequels because Windu was black!!!
The trailers for Skeliton Crew showed me that it's a show for children, So there would be no reason for me to watch it. they said it was goonies and stranger things in space. that doesn't sound interesting to me. I don't think that the demographic is large enough to make it a win. but we will see.
How dare we choose what entertains us? WHO DO WE THINK WE ARE? CUSTOMERS? HA!
Stop watching it. Stop talking about it. They love that you hate it and the more attention you give them, the further into extremism they'll go.
I’m done with SW and toys, I canceled my subscription to Disney Plus. The same with GI Joe toys, when they killed off Duke. Everything in this world sux, even the toys.

When you tell your fans what they should like be prepared to lose money
working with Leslye and Kathleen is the reason you’re out of work now…
It's not racism because those characters and writing wouldn't be good no matter what color the person in the role.

Bro the actors and company should've just watch the show and get to know the franchise better.

The acolyte reminded me of a Star Wars fanfictions I used to read back in middle and high school, mainly the bad ones 🤣
