I don't care what they told you in school. Anakin Skywalker blew up the Death Star.
Wikipedia needs updating
Have you ever seen a Harrison Ford interview and how he thinks about Star Wars? Exactly...
Ahhh... I see what you did there... 😂 bravo
ironically he did act his character well. Now the character was horribly written but he totally convinced me he was that character.
That's what my senile grandma told me so it must be true
"A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author." G. K. Chesterton
Fantastic quote, keep slinging it out there.
Whoof
The fuck? That's a shitty quote. A book allowing you to infer the cultural background and thoughts of the writer can be a great tool and element to the writing.
Oh- G. K. Chesterton was a Christian apologist, it makes sense now. You have shit taste in authors, sorry to say.
Aye
Chesterton never misses. It seems that his quotes only get more true as time progresses.
Remember when we used to think jar jar was as bad as it could get?
Lmao, S tier comment
I miss that innocence, the naivety I once had. His saving grace is as annoying and frustrating as he was, he meant well. Something that Disney Star Wars show that none of their characters have the ability to think outside their own world view. They never mean well, they always mean what they say and do.

Carrie Ann Moss probably asked to kill her character off as quick as possible after she read the script
Jamie Lee Curtis had that for her to return for Halloween Resurrection because she felt tired that the studio dragged out another sequel after all the effort she and the crew put into Halloween H20.
If Carrie Ann Moss did that too, it won’t surprise me
These actresses don’t have any scruples. They just want a paycheck and the limelight. Source: Matrix Reloaded, Revolutions and Resurrections.
Or they just hired her for that one scene so they could use her in advertising, as they had really nothing else anybody would be interested in except the franchise name, and that is no longer enough as far too many people (as far as they are concerned) are no longer curious to see if they managed to get it right THIS time, after too many disappointments. So somebody got the bright idea of using "Trinity as a Jedi!" as a selling point ("But she doesn't really fit any of the characters we have written for this show!" "No problem, we just use her in one scene, but do use that scene in all the ads.").
you mean bird lady?
Nah, more likely, she is too expensive for this team. This is ran by Harvey Weinstein's secretary don't forget. She probably stole half the budget.

@@CoercedJabEhh it's funny. And where he has given positive reviews, it has turned out to be good and accurate.
When your show is basically a gigantic self-insert, it's about narcissism, not "inclusion."
"Inclusion" is literally just a euphemism for "replacement."
Nothing else. And in a surprise to literally no one? The Leslies of the world all nominate themselves for the (forcibly) vacant slot.
(Not because anyone ELSE wanted to see them there, but because they wanted to admire their own likeness on screen. Narcissus would be proud.)
Every release has become a "where's Waldo" game of spot the producer/director who they based the entire show on.
I read that as "a genetic self insert." Which is something I didn't think Lesley liked...
She-Hulk? Velma?
It is female nature. Girls will have Batman join a tea party. Batman becomes the girl.
Boys will scold you if you do not represent Batman correctly. The boy becomes Batman.

LEFTISTS ARE RUINING EVERYTHING

Mae: Attack me, with all your strength
Indara: *Pulls out lightsaber*
Mae: A Jedi doesn't pull out her weapon unless they're ready to kill
Are you serious?
I get the idea that they thought it sounded really cool but the setting goes against it. Like, imagine instead, an old gunslinger spotting a young guy reaching for his gun and stops him by going “A man don’t reach for his gun unless he’s ready to kill.” And the young guy stops and realises can’t.
I think this is just the classic “Writer/director already has an idea for a story and just slaps an existing IP onto it” it’s why you get shows that break continuity for the stupidest reasons.
In paper, this could have been a great scene. In practice, it was a scene of The Acolyte
@@DMAN99 it definitely seems like SW cosplay thrown over an existing script
Drinker's complaint about them stupidly going back and forth across the galaxy (rescuing the survivors, taking them all the way to Coruscant and then going back to examine the crash scene) all points to "Coruscant" being the local police precinct, and "other planets" being various locales in town.
Yeah, did she draw her weapon? if she did thats not really fair. I'm guessing Indara was like "uh oh I think she's gonna kill me."
And she was right. Smart jedi lady.
@@chairliftphilospher5710 "what? She wants to kill me after i threatened to kill her? Who would have thought?"
In only 10 years time they have released 26 Star Wars movies or TV shows and still 4 more movies confirmed on the way... Let that sink in. This cow has been milked...
26?? I don't think so.
@@Davez621 Skeleton Crew isn't out yet so it's only 25 by my count. Unless you also count the season 7 revival of Clone Wars

The Mandalorian

Andor
Ahsoka
The Acolyte
And Andor, Rogue One, and one season of Mandalorian were any good. Rogue One had such a bad production it’s a miracle it’s even watchable, and nobody including Disney cared about Andor so the creators could actually focus on making a good product. I have no doubts season 2 of it will be much, much worse now that LucasFilms and Disney realized people loved the first season.
Milked until the udder is shriveled up. Might as well butcher the cow and get it over with. I grew up with Star Wars since '77 and even I'm tired of Disney Star Wars.
And most of them look like digital garbage. The sheen is terrible.
Just to recap...
A killer walks into a bar and says, "Attack me... with all your strength."
yup this poor written drivel really is that bad
And a Jedi went ahead for that crap...
Sounds like the writers just watched Kill Bill
From the producers that had Vader chase Obi-wan to a planet to say "have you come to destroy me?" To him.

“Is that a knife? Is that a real knife? You found my weakness. It’s small knives. Anything but knives!”
And wouldn't she have felt Mae's intention with the Force? Like, she knew she was being deceitful? Such horseshit.

"Yes it's a real knife 😡"
I love this amazing Spiderman reference
The small fire burning in the vacuum of space made her mind go blank, she just stared at it, lost in her own trauma. But in her vision, which is probably a 1:1 reimagination of the actual event that caused the trauma, she just takes a short look and ignores the entire burning forest around her with ease...
Her mind probably went blank just trying to comprehend how there was a fire in space, with no oxygen, but also, you know, space is a vacuum, so if there even was a source of oxygen the flames would immediately be dissapated. The best you could get is a small jet of flame, not a goddamn campfire looking bullshit.
You can get fire in the vacuum of space if something has its own oxidizer on board but I’m not gonna give Disney Star Wars that much credit. That’s also not how claims behave in space or a vacuum.

I never thought I’d one day lose literally all interest in Star Wars.
Same…. I read dozens of Star Wars Books as a kid and was obsessed with the movies. Star Wars was my favorite thing and now I couldn’t care less when a new thing comes out
Same. I grew up with Star Wars, and watching it going to shit really breaks my heart.
I never thought Star Wars would end up as a runway for narcissists catwalk.
Couldn't agree more, normally I'll watch for a laugh but this doesn't even have that appeal
It’s not Star Wars. It’s Disney Wars. Have to accept our beloved franchises are dead. But luckily we have 100 years of good film to enjoy already
Disney isn’t ruining Star Wars, they already *ruined* Star Wars
Nah George did that with the shitty prequels
They ruined it from the get-go. I will never forget watching "The Force Awakens" in the cinema. What a travesty of an experience it was... I've never watched any new Star Wars since.
Yeah, there hasn't been anything left to ruin for a long time now.
@@nialllappin4159 ah, yes, the movie trilogy where instead of sending George letters to change his dialogue for the better, y'all just sent literal children death threats.
The sad part is, if you guys sent George advice, he probably would've listened.

If copyright wasn't a thing, I know their would be so many amazing Star Wars movies/series's.
Hell, there already are a few from fan projects !
Even comedy centered ones like "For the Empire" are insanely better written and show more heart and respect for the original work !
I think the critical drinker could go with the " if i could change something about me, i would change my heart for a liver, so i could drink more and care less" phrase
So, they bring in Carrie-Anne Moss only to give her 5 minutes of screentime and kill her off. With a freaking kunai. No, I'm not letting this go, cause this is stupid.
clickbait for the few people who would give it a chance just because they like her as an actor
She got lucky.
Couldn't afford to have any actual talent on the show, because she would have made everyone else look bad. Although... everyone else managed that just fine on their own.
I'll bet $10 she comes back by the last episode cuz "No one's ever really gone"
I'm letting is go, cos its stupid.
How is Weinstein's assistant not in jail?
Alfred knew who Batman was
🤷🏽♀️
I really believe she got the show so she would not spill secrets about Weinstein.
really, you bring up a fictional character to prove she is guilty? you can do better than that.
She must have the dirt on a lot of powerful people in Hollywood, who were associates and co-pervs of Weinstein. Same with Kennedy. There is no other explanation for why these women are allowed to keep their jobs, one failure after another. DEI virtue-signalling can only go so far. Eventually business men have to look to their bottom lines. But if the choice is between losing the company money and going to prison, they are going to choose the former.
@@user-xx6vy9ri8p Dude she was wiping Weinsten's ass for years. Was responsible for scheduling meetings, appointments, interviews etc, managing basically his life more or less but yeah she did not know anything at all. And immediately after she gets offered her own show to do as she pleases with, basically with zero previous experience. Sounds legit. Try to ask Lucas Films for your own show and see how that goes.
"Attack me, with all you wokness!"
It's s "fresh air". So fresh ,that it burns even in space
If you wanted to get technical if an oxygen tank had a leak and there was a spark it would burn even in a vacuum but it wouldn't look anything like a normal fire.
Kinda like the Malevolence in Clone Wars, right?
@Paul-vf2wl Yeah it would look more like the jet from a propane torch I'm guessing. But only in very specific circumstances. It would be hard to get a fuel source and the air would rush out pretty quickly

What ? Disney Executives would have ripped your screenplay to shreds…. They would have said, “ Not enough homosexuality, not enough strong female protagonists, and weak males. “

@@robertdavis5753 Tell them: "The ability to speak does not make you intelligent.", then proceed to write, direct, and produce something Disney is too afraid, stupid, and blind to make.
Disney is on self destruct , getting rid of Bob Iger and his cronies is the only way to stop the countdown .
It's rotten to the core. The only silver lining is that it's going to collapse completely at some point and sell off the Star Wars IP to someone who will actually make the Star Wars content the fans are asking for. You know, movies and series about Star Wars and not some social/political propaganda with light sabers.
Still can’t believe how accurate South Park got Disney or really how accurate they got Kennedy’s agenda
Or how accurate they got cartman
Youre saying that like it was a prediction and not already happening
South Park is often just a mirror of reality and that highlights the absurdities. It's why the people/companies they mock hate the show and want it gone.
They are pretty much accurate on everything they ever talk about.
@@BUZZKILLJRJRyou know. Being insiders and all.
Calling it now, they are going to somehow have a rainbow lightsaber.
😂💯
There actually is a rainbow lightsaber in legends but as I recall the daughter of luke has it so disney will need to figure smth out|
Edit: I got some things mixed and apparently some princess has it but idk who she is related to, possibly noone special
@@smerfolthegamer2009
Han and Leia's daughter-in-law.
Or they could have a rainbow stick that just identifies as a lightsaber.
t'll happen when all the dumb male characters kneel before the female protagonist and "touch sabers" causing her to transition into a glowing rainbow Jedi that looks like Captain Planet.
And this franchise sucks so bad I wouldn't be surprised in the least.
Thanks Drinker for reminding me why I cancelled my Disney Plus subscription so long ago.
When I hear of anything released that’s Star Wars related, I immediately run to your channel. I’m never disappointed. I stopped watching Star Wars content, but I never miss an episode of your reviews. 😂

Even worse when a police procedural is conducted by characters with the same level of investigative experience as the writers. They don't know how murder cases are handled so the characters don't either.
@@dlxmarks it's just like She-Hulk writers writing about a criminal trial but have no clue how the justice system works beyond a TV level nor did they bother to bring in actual legal experts as consultation to make sure shit is accurate. You know, like what screenwriters used to do if something was beyond their level of expertise
If you wrote this and think it is good you should take some time for self reflection. This paragraph sounds like dark souls gibberish. Beautiful prose is not something that needs to be deconstructed but actually conveys meaning and even different meaning when read once, twice or again and again over the years as the person reading comes to understand more about the story, characters or even themselves.

I can deal with bad writing in a show I don’t even care about as it seems to be par for the course. But something in me broke when they showed a fire started in the cold vacuum of space.
I will always love the 6 and Rogue One and the Mandalorian. That is Star Wars to me.
I agree..when or if Mandalorian hits dvds I'll watch it then, not on Disney+...
I know why Carrie Ann Moss dies in the first 5 minutes. She read the script for the next 7 episodes and said to the director: Please kill me first so that I don't have to do this shit to myself anymore.

It's quite possible that this video has a bigger audience then the actual show.
The thing with lightsabers is is it's a beam of light so while cutting it also cauterizes the wound as well
They'd have to be something other than just a beam of light. You cut impale someone with the light from a flashlight. Even if it did cauterize the wound you'd still have the problem of numerous organs and possibly bones having a sizeable hole in them. That would have to effect how well they work.
@BiggieTrismegistus but that exactly how they work and are described based on the lore when you see someone cut its always burnt darkened and chared that's why you never see someone cut by a saber blees out it sealed the wound the same time it cuts you. you're thinking of it wrong. A lightsaber is not the same as a flashlight is two different things, and with our worlds current technology, I mean even look at the Lazer guns they burn on contact, not blow holes in whatever is shot. I can see where you're coming from it makes no sense with outer current words understanding of physics.
And wounds are healed differently. I mean, look at the bantha tanks, a fluid you lay in or are submerged ing that can heal even the most fatal wounds in a short time

"I guess fire in The Acolyte doesn't need oxygen like in others shows because it no longer has the patriarchy holding it back. You go girl-fire!" - This had me in stitches.
Found a mad white male who hasn't actually watched Star wars.
In the original Battlestar Galactica, way back in 1978, they had an episode where Adama saves the Galactica by using his understanding of "physics" by emptying a damaged section of the ship of oxygen, thereby preventing the fire from spreading. Sure, all humans who went to elementary school learnt that about fire (needing oxygen), but I still remember being amazed by that simple scene from way back when as a kid. Not sure if this comment actually implies that the writers are dumber than grade-school kids, or just that even a cheesy show from the 70s outclasses this one.

It really strikes me how the characters in so many of these shows/films anymore just look like people in costumes acting in a show/film rather than a character in the show/film's universe.
I've also noticed this in a bunch of animated stuff where the voice "acting" literally just sounds like the person saying the lines, as opposed to, you know, doing a voice for the character. Not that it can't be done without putting on a voice, it just often sounds so "non-acting". It's annoying.

@@alonsoJ2002 Noise is just inaccurate, but the fire actually makes sense for the x wings since they didn't have oxygen masks in their ships, so that means that there was oxygen in their cockpit which would have caused an explosion.
Also, laughing at a joke about fire in space that was tied into how Disney quite frankly isn't very good at writing women is by no means hating women. What's truly insulting is Disney thinking that a well written woman is just one who acts like an unlikable man.

The people complaining about this show's plot are just too stupid to understand things that don't make sense. I totally get Disney Star Wars. The Jedi put all their Force powers into perfecting their gaydars. And while sure, the Republic eventually falls, at least they were having fabulous sex until the very end.

"Go away now", sums up what I think about Star Wars in general.
The fact that they had a jedi accept a challenge to a bar brawl shows how little they understand the jedi...
It would seem I am mistaken. I'll admit I was wrong to judge it prematurely
She didn't, the acolyte just started attacking citizens.
Seriously, have they ever watched a Star Wars movie? (Well, 1-6)
Jedi didnt do anything untill the acolyte started beating up every body..........js
I haven't even seen the show, only watched reviews, and even I know this statement of yours is missing a lot nuance to the situation. The Jedi was super hesitant to do anything, and only fought back when daggers were thrown at her, which makes sense.
Nah dude if you're gonna hate on the show atleast hate on something worth hating about. She tried to talk her down before the girl started beating up the other patrons.
Honestly I think the show portrays jedi very well. Sol is a great character. Portrays jedi values well while also sharing the same weaknesses that brought the order down in the first place (naivity and overconfidence)
Andor: Chases the disappearing audience. Ahsoka: Chases _away_ what remains of the audience. Acolyte: Salts the earth, burns the fields, and desecrates the smoldering corpses of Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen, so that nothing can grow there again and no one will dare return for hundreds of years.
Perfectly said !!!
my die hard star wars friend defended obi wan, and ahsoka, and he said he couldnt even watch episode 2 of acolyte bc it was so bad. Thats telling you something.
Andor was quite brilliant, SW fans just hate in it cause it's Disney.
It's genuinely one of the best shows I've ever seen in my life.
Ashoka had some interesting characters at least. Some solid actor performances as well.
@@dest5218couldn’t agree more
The sad part is some of these actors I think could have good careers. Disney is so big that it's hard to say no when you don't have a great resume or Hollywood connections to start with. Also would have loved to explore more about Jedi history but the way Disney goes about it is incredibly shallow and cares about the surface. Pretty much the tip of the ice cube instead of being an iceberg.
This was a savage yet fair and accurate review. Thank you for all the laughs I had while watching it. Gonna finish the show because I'm a glutton for punishment. I hope you keep reviewing the other episodes cause I want to laugh a lot more.

Thank you for saving me an infinite amount of time with your reviews.
Watching it fail is a better story than the show itself.
Well so is watching paint dry so the bar isn't set very high. But I'll admit it'll be entertaining to watch all the strong women complain about why it flopped, blaming everyone but themselves, as usual.
My daughter can write a more compelling story than Disney. She's 7.
@@Axiomatic75 You're assuming they will watch it, just like they watch the WNBA
It's like watching a giant pile of money burn, and every dollar is printed with a rodent's face.

Perhaps if "Firefly" had such a cast, it would have gotten a second season...oh wait, if it had this cast, I wouldn't have watched it anyway. Ok, never mind. And 'Lesbian Headlamp' is a high-larious name, sez Jayne

I loved Carrie- Anne Moss in The Matrix. Sorry to see her fall on hard times.
You sat through the whole thing!? Brave dude! I was out after the first 15m.
Thanks, but no Thanks.
The last time I was this early, Star Wars wasn't in the blood-stained hands of Disney yet.
Man... those were good times, indeed.
A knife is deadlier than a lightsaber now…fuck
You sure it's not a needle.
Drops the needle.
A small knife, actually. A small knife.
Ban Knifes 😆
that scene was so stupid. a character who has been throwing knives all over the place, and has her hand behind her back, definitely isnt about to throw a knife at you, stupid jedi, you can definitely put all your attention on the other knife...
it was like distracting a dog by pretending to throw a ball one way while you actually throw it the other. thats how dumb the writing is.
Ever since Asohka lightsabers haven't been effective. Tis but a scratch.
" the squid game guy "
" Wtf whait a minutes its him ? "
WHAT THE HELL. Here I thought the main character was the Jedi in the bar. The trailers even made it seem like it with the assassin girl being an adversary at first but possible eventual side kick later on or something.
How I thought the story would play out is quite different than what's shown here. I thought the Jedi was out on some sort of investigation but then someone caught wind of it and sent out an assassin to kill her.
I thought the fight would be the Jedi dodging her attacks and trying to find an opportunity to disarm the assassin and pin her down. All the while trying to protect the people in the bar from debris or thrown objects from the fight. Then when the opportunity arrives. she whips out her lightsaber and disables assassin, either by destroying her weapon or in more serious cases, slice her arm off ending, ending the fight.
Then after the fight she ties up the assassin, takes her away from the bar to somewhere quiet and interrogates her, trying to figure out who sent her and why. She eventually bugdes and tells the Jedi what she knows about the guy who hired her and where. The Jedi ask the assassin if she can take her to the guy, she reluntly agrees and takes her to the guy.
After this they go to the guy's hideout and the Jedi demands answers. He gives some answers, but refuses to elaborate on them, subtly giving hints that something bigger is going on play. A massive conspiracy that could lead to an all out war against the Jedi and the sith
(fyi I know little about the high republic but from the trailers I image theres gonna be fights between Jedi and sith)
I imagine after this this would play out in two ways. Either the assassin betrays the Jedi here and kills her for learning too much. Or The Guy order his lackies to kill both the Jedi and the Assassin to tie up loose ends. And a big fight happens where the Jedi and assassin try to desperately escape from the hideout. They do but just barely. They fly out in the jedis space ship and both team up to figure out the truth to this massive conspiracy which they will slowly learn more about as the episodes progress, and the tension and stakes rising, eventually leading to all our war.
That's how I imagine things would play out.
Also, who The Guy is. I imagine he's some JABBA the hutt type character. Slimy and cunning, and charismatic. Something like that.
That's a much better premise than the garbage that this show came up with. Would've made it watchable too
@@CloudRollerFoxI just rewatch the trailer and it feels like they were going for a horror murder mystery thriller with something big breaking out in the end. Though not sure if that is what they went with in the end. Haven't watch the episodes myself. Then again maybe I misunderstood the entire trailer altogether
Edit: wait, I actually watch the second trailer, the first trailer is where I imagine how things would go.
Even then, if you want to kill a trained Jedi, u have to be smart about it, can't just overpower them unless they're an inexperienced Padawan.
This is just further proof that Andor was made by accident
By keeping the writer of Rogue One and giving him freedom.
Yep. That show is not of this "universe".
😅andor soo boring it.cured my inmsonia
Or it was just bad, but not as bad. Because it was bad.
@@FULANODETAL how dare you
Starwars isn't a corpse. It's a grave. Disney has been grave robbing the same grave over and over again hoping they'll find somthing different everytime they pick up the shovel.
Makes that Cryptkeeper clip kinda fitting, doesn’t it?
Except there's nothing in there anymore, so they're having to fill in with their own self-inserts.
Is Andor is the nice looking headstone?
@cradiculous Yeah, it's like Disney threw so much shit against the wall hoping some would stick that they have now have walls made of shit hoping it will hold the ceiling up. Not happening.
Reverse psychology is a technique involving the assertion of a belief or behavior that is opposite to the one desired, with the expectation that this approach will encourage the subject of the persuasion to do what is actually desired.
Hegelian dialectic is an interpretive method used to relate specific entities or events to the absolute idea. It is a framework for guiding our thoughts and actions into conflicts that lead us to a predetermined solution.
Hegelian Dialectic (simplified): Problem, Reaction, Solution
Problem: Liberal Marxists threaten to turn the US and Western Civilization into a Communist society. "Everything that goes woke turns to shit".
Reaction: We need a leader and laws to fight back against the threat of Communism, restore us to our traditional moral and ethical values and “Make America Great Again”.
(From BBC Arts)
In Munich, Adolf Hitler staged two exhibitions which defined the way we think about modern art. The Great German Art show displayed the artists he approved of, the Degenerate Art show displayed the artists he despised. In these two exhibitions, mounted side by side in adjacent galleries, the battle lines were drawn between traditionalism and modernism. It’s a battle that’s still being fought today.
Do you like art that’s realistic and reassuring? Or do you prefer art that’s experimental or disturbing? Maybe you like a bit of both - in which case, you’re like a lot of people who went to see these shows.
The Nazis wanted people to see both shows, but they didn’t want people to make up their own minds. The idea was to see the Degenerate Art show, and see how German art had been debased - and then see the Great German Art show, and see how the Nazis has redeemed it.
There is a reason why Hollywood is promoting "THE MESSAGE" in established IP that have been around for decades. Conservatives in the Government want those who grew up with the originals to be able to compare what they loved to the degenerate modern art and see how Liberals have debased it.
The goal is to promote Liberal Marxist ideologies in such a way people will reject them and go the intended persuasion of Conservative Fascism as the solution.
Solution: A Revolutionary change of power in which Liberals are removed from positions of power, authority and influence.
What is the “7 Mountains Mandate” (Dominionism/Dominion Theology)? Supposedly there are 7 “mountains” of global society-Arts and Entertainment, Education, Economy, Family, Government and Military, Media and Religion. (Note: The US voting machines are called “Dominion”.) According to this false teaching, by conquering these 7 “mountains”, the Kingdom of God will be established.
Look up US Public Law One Zero Two dash One Four and the Jewish "Seven Laws of Noah" contained within it. Those are the means by which Conservatives will "take back the nation" and Make America Great Again.
The escape from the prison ship and the crash had to have been written in at the last minute when the writers realized the show didn't have enough action. Both subplots wrapped up quickly so they didn't affect the rest of the story, and it's clear they weren't well thought out. Why didn't all the prisoners get Facehuggers? Why didn't the prisoners escape before since their plan worked so quickly? Did they really want to escape to a snow planet with treacherous conditions that probably would have killed them all? How did the one guy with the Facehugger immediately know where the escape pod was, and why did he betray Osha? Why didn't Osha try and take control of the ship, isn't she really good with technology? Why couldn't Osha's tool droid just take control of the ship? I have a billion more questions about this show, but I don't think the writers have the answers.
When you were talking about "write witnesses I was expecting a "my cousin Vinny" cut scene 😆
Agatha Christie would have written a better space murder mystery about Star Wars WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT STAR WARS IS!
To be fair, isn't Agatha Christie a pretty good author?
@@DalmarLesage Yes, I would say a genius, she had stated that she hates Poirot and the personality she wrote him with, yet she was always respectful to him even with his death
@@irekaias Agatha Christie was also a writer with like 40 years of experience, some of her earliest books are really turds compared to the later ones. I think the first "classic" that she wrote was about 10 years into her career. Which just goes to show that actual experience will always beat amateur enthusiasm in writing.
Let's hope Disney never tries to film a Christie novel.

Remember the time, when a seeing the Star Wars Logo and hearing the sounding trumpets of the opening would create a warm fuzzy feeling of a romantic, fantastic galaxy far far away? Now it just creates the need to barf.
Exactly. Even when I heard that at the beginning of The Force Awakens I was still excited, but it quickly went away.....
I've lost it at Phantom Menace. An old fart overrated franchise.
@@fabianor4499 The phantom menace was the low point of the prequels, they went up from there, and phantom menace wasn't THAT bad. It had some redeeming qualities and moments. The prequels were economically viable, people kept coming to see them. Viewership for the sequel triology actually went downhill.
@@hzuiel Star Wars might have even faded off into the sunset, for better or worse it would have had little relevance to a younger generation outside of "those old movies my dad likes".
@@hzuiel and more importantly, people were excited for SW after the prequels: they bought toys, comics, books, games, and everything else to do with the franchise
Star Wars is like that family member you used to love and helped you through really rough times in your life. You used to want to root for them to turn their life around but now they’re under a bridge smoking crack and threatening to cut your head off any time you come near them. At some point you have to realize it’s a lost cause for your own mental health.
ugh i had a friend exactly like that! Ever since i moved under this nice bridge, he keeps avoiding me ... xD
Lifes an idiot. I hope I can fight it soon.....

Nothing kills a show like the showrunners insulting their actual audience by calling all of them gay for what they like, and insulting their target audience by calling them nerds for their sexuality.

Take my oppinions with a soup plate of salt, but it's not eye-meltingly horrible.
Acolyte is just predictable, borring and riskless slop.
You’re the only person I’m subscribed to that actually lets me know that these shows exist.
I haven’t watched television in years and thank the Good Lord for it. I’ve clearly missed nothing of importance.
You're not the only one.
That's nothing. I don't even know what a "television" is.
Fire can burn in space if that which is burning is creating the oxidizer. Usually something as a Class D fire which involves burning metals which has internal oxygenation formed would be able to burn no matter how much it was smother by water or CO2 because it doesn’t need what’s in the air to burn.
It's quite rare that someone shows up and kills a jedi, so it's easy to deduct that a jedi do this, also knowing that the suspect looks exactly like a formal jedi padawan(And we know how she looks from 20 or so people that were in the bar at the time).
Of course, take the higly dangerous jedi killing murder on a small 2-seat spaceship with a inexperienced jedi, that makes sense.
I think a jedi would listen to an old friend, who was good all her life and who he trusted for many years. Also maybe he trusted the force on this one, how can you tell he didin't.
''Steal or lasers are no threat to them" is more of a metaphor, she killed her by using her weakness, which is compassion for others.
Great to see Carrie Ann Moss get a solid role this time *6 minutes later*
Nevermind 🤦🏼♂️
Good on her to disassociate from this garbage as quickly as possible.
She will be back. No one takes forever naps in SW anymore lol
I imagine her agent charges 20 million per movie but 100,000 if you can squeeze her role to 5 minutes or less.
We can see that six minutes as, "Trinity times two" I'm guessing. 😂
