Disney's The acolyte EP 4: short, lukewarm, garbage Charlie recording Top J OWK, Grandmaster Qui, and the Chosen One reviewing lukewarm garbage: Me: I've been looking forward to this Been watching you for like two years now 'Charlie, thank you so much for your work, makes all this easier as a star wars fan😂😢😅😂
I liked it. It was slow but it was all setting up stuff. I liked how Mae switched because she's going through a paradigm shift. And the last scene with the Sith descending was legitimately scary.
Ki-Adi-Mundi was just jealous he didn’t get to bring up how the Sith returned first, so that’s why he refused to believe Qui-Gon about Maul. How petty!
@@rebotsomat They've obviously encountered *something.* So regardless of whatever it actually is, why tf would Ki NOT even mention this in TPM?! His appearance and part in Acolyte is character assassination because he is now either a complete idiot or part of a mass cover-up.
@@nicholaskinkaidcorrect! Here's my theory on why Mundi is in the show now: This show was set 100 years before TPM and we all know the famous line of Mundi in that movie: "the sith hasn't been seen for a millenium" or something like that. But maybe Headland wants to subvert everyone's expectations by having a sith roam a few years before TPM. And she probably thinks it's cool to have the SAME EXACT character who said the Sith hasn't been around for a millennium be around now in the show (Probably to add animosity against the Jedi as being dishonest). But the problem is, she didn't bother to research that MUNDI was born in 93 BBY. The Acolyte was supposed to take place at 132 BBY, meaning he wasn't even born yet! Lol
The makeup is really variable, and the CGI is often embarrassing, but it's the Stand Around Awkwardly And Make Weird Faces thing that suggests Ren Faire production to me.
So much of the money has to be the marketing side. Being cheap with a show that has a large brand like Star Wars is fine as long as you can market to companies that the advertisement and partnerships will pay off. Basically... Cash cow stuff. It's awful
And ... The room where the Jedis met looked and sounded like something from a 1960's sci-fi B grade. It had an early Star Trek vibe to it. Next, the walls will be moving when someone bumps them.
I never got used to how real your Ewan McGregor looks, acts and sounds. With a great impressionist it's almost impossible to notice what's real anymore.
@@hoos3014 You are correct, but it's also depressing knowing that my view of the show would be supporting lucas film/disney. So i'll take the jokes with missing context over support, lol.
@nicholaskinkaid Agreed. There's only special circumstances when I'll read or by something I dislike. Like researching another ideology down to it's core tenets. But Disney has just been producing intersectional activist garbage. I'm queer myself, but I don't f**king want people to bend over to service me. I just want to be left alone and leave others alone. Not these activists though.
@@aaronjackman4037 Actually, I believe he was grown from the remaining natural hand that Obi-Wan cut of in The Revenge of the Sith. That's why they chide him about the stuff he did when he first turned to the dark side, before the suit.
In the Star Wars CCG card game released in 2001 and supervised by Lucasfilm, there's a card of Ki Adi Mundi stating he is 70 years old, so yeah it was official and this show just breaks the canon
Not nearly the age issue as it brings more attention to making a liar out of him. Or what? Maybe he was just exaggerating when he said that there had been no Sith for a millennia. That the show constantly breaks its own canon and repeatedly, almost right away makes for an unwatchable series.
Friend: "What's your favorite show?" Me: (trying to think of a way to explain I watch Obi-wan and Qui-gon roast Star Wars shows) "Oh... you know... it's complicated"
Why is the conversation between the 2 villians about murdering a Jedi sound like and after school special where one of them is a parent consoling the kid who didnt make the Team.

Disney's The acolyte EP 4: short, lukewarm, garbage
Charlie recording Top J OWK, Grandmaster Qui, and the Chosen One reviewing lukewarm garbage:
Me: I've been looking forward to this
Been watching you for like two years now 'Charlie, thank you so much for your work, makes all this easier as a star wars fan😂😢😅😂
I quit on this show after episode 2. But thanks to you and the boys I can still keep up to date. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for keeping it light and funny. All this Internet hate is beginning to annoy me.
Love the first stage training saber, but really thats just some toilet humor...
I liked it. It was slow but it was all setting up stuff. I liked how Mae switched because she's going through a paradigm shift. And the last scene with the Sith descending was legitimately scary.
I'm glad they made the Acolyte, for the sole reason that I get to watch Obi and Qui react to it.
Me too. I never watch the actual shows, just these reactions. Best thing ever.
@@riktheyellowmonkey Same here lmao
I'd be happy enough listening to them watch The Good the Bad and The Ugly.
At this point, that's all these crap shows are good for.
I’m with you
"My tragic, epic death"
Never change Qui
Train the boy 😂🎉😅😊
"That's why his head is so long, to hold all those lies" 😂😂😂
He's just a vertical Pinocchio

You’re such a space racist!

Ki aid Mundi wouldn’t even have been born yet in this time period.
@@501stparatrooper5 bro he was being sarcastic 😂
ok but for real, considering that none of the jedi suspected sith, how would he be lying?

"It's both unfair and outrageous."
Facts.
I almost fell off when I realized the voice has been *purposefully* equalized to mock the "prequel Christensen acting" issue :D.
"And kind of lame and lazy."
"I wasn't getting it before, but now red means dead." Reminds me of the Rings of Power revealing Mordor via Powerpoint, haha
Okay, Obi telling Gandalf to get out of here when he starts narrating is gold. Had me dying.
😂😂😂 honestly it's the only way to watch these Disney stuff now.
Without Qui-Gon it's basically nothing
I love it so much. 😂 and was Gandalf saying something about Rings of Power?
Does Obi do the same to Gandalf, or is it just Gandalf being himself
Ki Adi Mundi bears a lot of responsibility for Qui Gon's death if this is the way that Disney wants it to be.
Unless by 'extinct' he meant less than 50 breeding pairs for over 50 years.
@@mandowarrior123 Ki-Adi always was a pedantic bastard.
We'll have a separate show exposing his perfidy, I'm sure
Another reason to hate him
I think it's an interesting to keep the narrative about how blind and arrogant the Jedi were becoming. Even if the show is uneven.
How did they spend over a 100 million dollars and the costumes look worse than 2nd tier cosplay, the embezzlement is strong in this one.
The makeup is really variable, and the CGI is often embarrassing, but it's the Stand Around Awkwardly And Make Weird Faces thing that suggests Ren Faire production to me.
Reshoots... A lot of, I suppose
$180M, it has to be a laundering scam

@@robbiecale3327🤦♂️
@@Hathur his voices is fake liol
The only way I want to watch the Acolyte is through Qui Gon, and Obi Wan's reaction
LOL Obi-Wan said "swapped out my loin cloth to send Vader on a wild goose chase." fucking classic!
“It’s why his head is so long, to hide all those lies” 😂😂
Absolutely killed me.
“Back on his home planet, he was a surgeon.”
😂
Charlie, you’ve outdone yourself! Awesome writing on this one, and great delivery as always. 🎉
I don't even watch the shows anymore. Just Charlie's videos
Lol, same. At least Charlie gives the people what they want LOL
It's funnier when you know the context.

@nicholaskinkaid Sail the High Seas. Disney needs no money from the fans it hates.
14:35 That Jesse impression is INSANE LOL you nailed it so hard 😂😂😂
was looking for this comment lol
"Red means dead, but in Torbin's case, redemption" is an amazing comment.
Yes
Ani - "Dumb. That's dumb. She evil. As evil as someone who'd embezzle money from a charity."
Ted - "That money was just resting in my account."
Down with that sort of thing!
Who's Ted?
@@NostraFnDamus Careful now.
@@jlev1028Father Ted
Ghost town plays on repeat
Disney spends millions per episode and makes slop, Charlie has a laugh and makes gold.
The timeframe that he makes these deepfakes is astonishing. This technology is advancing fast. The episode has only been out a couple of days!
Ki Adi Mundi's head is like Pinocchio's nose, it gets longer with every lie he tells 🤣
I canceled Disney, subbed to you. This is better.
This is the way.
@@jooei2810 this is the way.

“More like an internship, you’ll do coffee runs.”
“Braid the padawans hairs”💀😂😂😂
I only just noticed that at 2:30 Qui is making little Wolverine-like claws for himself out of Cheese puffs.😂
Wotsits bro, they are superior
Sent Vader on a wild goose chase as if he is not in the room 😂
He's not. That Anakin was regrown by Obiwan in the bathtub from the hand dooku cut off in ep. 2. It'd a different non-evil version
Handakin in the black robe is vaders arm
This discussion about a dismembered hand is far better lore than anything in The Acolyte 😂❤
@@praneilramdin6701 Well, I figure the Killmonger-do guy turns out to be an ancestor of Shmi's.

Oh, fuck!! She's broken in!! Get her!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Anakin cutting in abruptly with "Bad people are bad!" had me shrieking with laughter!! xD xD xD I had to rewind and watch it at least three times, OMG
Dude thats insane how good this looks, imagine what this means for people to make their own movies in just a few years
Qui Gon trying to soften his eyes killed me 😂😂
The Jessie Pinkman impression caught me off guard. Fucking perfect!
I want this kind of friend group man. They're so honest and chill with each other.
I’m 100% onboard for Anakin’s Darth Basil theory!
Me too!

Even Gandalf gets his moment in this car accident 🤣
“Why don’t you sniff the loin cloth” 😂
Odours change with time"
It’s okay Qui, I support you and your slightly strange anatomy
I can't believe Ki Adi Mundi lied about his age on his profile page, the lengths people go to try to appear young
Friend: "What's your favorite show?"
Me: (trying to think of a way to explain I watch Obi-wan and Qui-gon roast Star Wars shows) "Oh... you know... it's complicated"
I love that they keep throwing free content at this guy.
Qui putting Cheetos between his fingers like Wolverine claws! 🤣🤣 *rawr*
This is my own private domicile... I lost it. That was great.
In my mind, this series is just the REAL canon characters reacting to fan fiction of themselves.
Now I feel just like master Qui-Gon, sitting here watching this while eating my crisps...
I love that Qui Jon made cheese cheese curl claws 😂
I almost died when Obi-wan talked about a decoy rag sending Vader on a goose chase.
A liar and alive decades before he was born?...devious, you tell em Qui Gon. 😂
Why is the conversation between the 2 villians about murdering a Jedi sound like and after school special where one of them is a parent consoling the kid who didnt make the Team.
I think they're trying to throw people off from the fact that he's secretly her master
Apparently Ki Adi Mundi was 60yo at the time of the Phantom Menace. So, no idea who that character is.
Im now saying, "Oh my force, thanks to this series
“On his home planet he was a surgeon” 😂
“Oooohhh… He’s become one with the Force.” Made me laugh way too hard 😂
10 min of this is more intertaining, funny and lore accurate than the entire 4 Acolyte episodes xD
Subtle movements are tight! Sorry...wrong channel...
Barely an inconvenience
It's Super Easy to survive a lightsaber stabbing.
Wow wow wow wow wow.....wow!
@@travishighbaugh5245 unless you're named Qui Gon. He probably would have died opening a lightsafetypin.
This is way better than the episode itself, love watching Obi Wan & Qui reacting!
It's nice to see Anakin rejecting gossiping on Qui-Gon.
Thanks!
Thanks!
I love these vids, it's like the movie characters come to life behind the scenes while at home chillin 🤣
“He’s saying, why don’t you sniff the loincloth?’ 😂😂😂
The only reason I care for the acolyte still is just so I can watch these videos on it 😂
Charlie, you never get old no matter how long I've been listening to you. You are amazing! Keep up the great work
Your Anakin makes me giggle so hard, it makes my day.
Hopkinson should have a snack sponsor.
My missus thought you really were Ewan McGregor! 😆
I laughed SO HARD at Qui And Obi-Wan talking about his 3rd nipple😂😂 @4:00
My entire family of seven cracked up for a solid minute at “oh? So that’s who that is?”
Anakin shouting “OH F***! SHES BROKEN IN!!” Had me in stitches for ages. 🤣🤣
I wonder what kind of cream is inside Ki Adi’s brain. I hope it is milk chocolate.
I think it's something along the lines of coconut milk
Ki Adi Mundi was retroactively made 40 years older just to appear in this episode !
The breaking bad ref was great!
Love your work Charlie!!!
This is all comedy gold. ❤ Bravo!
Best Star Wars channel on TH-cam
Civilan jedi robe? What a weird timeline the old republic was 😅😅😅
Ki-Adi-Mundi: Your thoughts dwell on your mother?
Anakin: My thoughts dwell on your mother
Council : ooooooh
I cant put into words how much i love your star wars content
"It can't be Basil"
Enjoying this while eating my Space Creams.
These videos are the only remaining watchable part of Star Wars. Thank you!
My dog just took a giant Acolyte on the rug. 🤦🏻♂️
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The power of one, the power of two, or the power of many?
Qui Gon "Stop fondling the giant tree-testes!!" This is the only way to enjoy the Acolyte!!
Your Jessie Pinkman impression was spot on 😂😂😂
2:52 “Like He’s Brain Is Trying To Take Off But He’s Head Won’t Let It” 🤣
*But... What about the Droid attack on the Wookies!?* 😩
I suppose in this case is the sith attack on the Wookiee.
Been a while since I sad THANKS!
Thanks very much!
Lmao I’ve been waiting for this video. As soon as I saw him on the show I knew Qui would have a lot to say
Give this guy $180 million.
Honestly watching these reactions just enhances any star wars project. Even the shit ones
the anakin bits literally kill me haha
"Hey, it's Venom!" 😂
You must be a youngling.
So far the only enjoyable part of this show, watching my 2 favourite Jedi masters, a Jedi with anger issues and Charlie watch the show
I still think the crossovers of the flat mates might be my favorite moments. I crack up every time. So good once again!
03:33 honestly, 10/10, I'm on the floor!
Honestly, I look forward to these almost as much as I look forward to the actual episodes.
I'm just happy that there appears to be so much concern for Workplace safety in this age of Star Wars, to the point people name their children "OSHA".
That throws me off too. With the type of humor I keep thinking they're talking about OSHA but I guess it is a US thing.
When reaction videos have superior writing to the original multi-million dollar content. The force is strong with you, well done.
You think the Wookiee sat down to do a reaction video about the previous episode and ended himself because of it.
I love Acolyte, and I'm not afraid to admit it.
But this makes it even better
According to last nights episode, Qui called it.
You make every episode worth watching thank you for making them interesting
Fans: But how can Ki-Adi Mundi be…?
Pablo Hidalgo: *A GOOD QUESTION FOR ANOTHER TIME!!*
We're defined by what we survive
OH F**K OFF!!! 😂😂😂
it's more entertaining to watch them watch Acolyte than me watching Acolyte.
