The ultimate form of double standard deflection, and toxic gaslighting. Everything they accuse us of doing, is in fact exactly what they themselves are doing. So every time you hear them accuse us of these things, just know it’s a full on guilt of omission on their own part. 💯

@bubsy3861 I must articulate why I believe this particular episode fundamentally alters the essence of Star Wars and not for the better. 1. Deviation from Core Themes You see, the introduction of Force-sensitive witches and the concept of the "Thread" represents a significant departure from the established lore of The Force. The dichotomy between the light and dark sides of the Force is a central pillar of the Star Wars narrative structure. By introducing these new elements, the series risks diluting the core thematic essence that has anchored the franchise for decades. This confusion can lead to a fracturing of the narrative cohesion that long-time fans have come to cherish. 2. Shallow Character Development Now, consider the characters of Mae and Osha. Their portrayal comes across as one-dimensional, with their constant bickering feeling contrived. This episode’s attempt to inject moral ambiguity through their conflict is heavy-handed and detracts from the sophisticated storytelling that Star Wars is known for. Instead of providing depth, it renders the characters less relatable and the story less engaging. True character development should reveal the complexities of human (or sentient being) nature in a manner that resonates with the audience. 3. Poor Execution of New Ideas While the introduction of new ideas is not inherently negative, the execution in this episode leaves much to be desired. The dialogue is clunky, and the plot points feel rushed and poorly conceived. The depiction of the witches and their society lacks the richness and detail that typically make Star Wars’ worlds so immersive. It feels like a squandered opportunity to expand the universe in a meaningful and engaging way. 4. Undermining the Jedi The portrayal of the Jedi in this episode appears to cast them in an uncharacteristically negative light. Historically, Star Wars has depicted the Jedi as flawed but fundamentally good. This episode’s narrative, however, seems to suggest that the Jedi are more villainous than virtuous, undermining the core identity of the franchise. This is a profound shift that alters the moral foundation upon which Star Wars is built. 5. Damage to Anakin’s Origin One of the most troubling aspects is how the episode undermines the origin story of Anakin Skywalker. Anakin’s unique birth from the Force and his role as the Chosen One are pivotal elements of the Star Wars saga. The idea that twins like Mae and Osha could be created by the Force at will disrupt this established lore. It diminishes the significance of Anakin’s birth, which was portrayed as an unparalleled event orchestrated by the Force itself, highlighting his unique destiny. 6. Changing the Nature of the Force Moreover, altering the Force to the "Thread" and depicting it as something that can be manipulated at will represents a fundamental shift in how the Force has always been understood. The Force, traditionally, is a mystical energy field that binds the galaxy together, wielded by those who have a deep, spiritual connection with it. Depicting it as a mere thread that can be easily manipulated trivializes its profound and mystical nature, which has always been a cornerstone of the Star Wars mythos. 7. Comparison with the Star Wars Holiday Special Let us draw a comparison with the much-maligned Star Wars Holiday Special. While the Holiday Special is often cited as a low point due to its poor production quality and bizarre content, it did not attempt to fundamentally alter the lore or the core themes of Star Wars. In stark contrast, The Acolyte Episode 3 makes significant changes to the foundational aspects of the Star Wars universe, which is far more detrimental. The Holiday Special might have been a misstep, but it didn’t disrupt the core narrative and character arcs that fans hold dear. While The Acolyte endeavors to introduce fresh perspectives, its execution in Episode 3 falls short. It makes changes that, in my view, are more damaging than innovative to the beloved Star Wars universe.

The Acolyte has great writing. Attack me with all your strength!!!!!!

Cut these reporters some slack, Lauren. They never learned critical thinking skills in elementary school. All they know is how to report on their feelings instead of investigating facts.

This is relevant here... How?

Q: What do Dis-ney and a flaming dump truck have in common? A:.....quite a bit, acktually!!

I am a 63 year old white man. Over the years I have heard critics say such and such a movie was bad and poorly executed yet, when I watched the show myself, I found that I like it. I have also experienced not liking something the critics adored. Everyone has their personal taste. That taste is based solely on one's personal likes and dislikes. The old Apple Jacks commercial comes to mind; "We know what we like". Just because you like something, does not mean I will also like it. Just because you don't like something, does not mean I will also not like it. Calling me a racist because I don't like a movie you are the lead character in; is the best way to insure I never watch a movie that you are the lead character in. Telling me I have no choice but to like your show is the same thing as calling me a slave that has no opinion. That is a very stupid thing to say to a hard core, slavery is evil and must not be allowed, American. The only reason I could ever be required to watch and like a movie I otherwise would neither watch nor like, is if I was a slave. I am not a slave and I neither need, nor have to watch a movie. If you don't understand the simple basic fact that a free man is entitle to refuse to watch a show you are the lead character in, you have no business being in show business.

My grandma told me "No matter who says what, Anakin blew up the death star"

They really are as predictable as the sunrise at this point. They turn out a pile of hot, steaming garbage as entertainment, and when people hate it, accuse them of being "toxic" and calling them -ists and -phobes. And shows like this are hot steaming garbage, because telling a good story about interesting and relatable characters has taken a backseat to making characters self-inserts for the leftist writers, and advancing The Message. The irony is, you _could_ make movies and TV shows with gay characters, non-white characters, female characters, that are great. People have been doing that for decades. But you can't do that if you prioritize ideology over entertainment. People want to be _entertained,_ not scolded, preached to, propagandized, or indoctrinated.

George’s Jedi knights are stoic warriors trained in discipline & philosophy. Leslie’s Jedi are pop kids based off today’s youth. So is her emotional baggage assassin. 👎

Leia didn't come back from her space swim like: "Hey you guys, you can still hear everything out there!"

Where do I go to put my vote in for audience score? "The power of manyyy" 😂

For years now I look at audience score when I go to RT. Critics are wrong 90% of the time while the masses are 90% right when it comes to a fun enjoyable show/movie. When I see critics on RT I imagine Kathleen Kennedy from that South Park episode saying "put a chick in it and make her gay!".

OMG that intro--GENIUS! I'm so glad I have you independent critics. I don't trust a "professional" critic one bit. They either say what they say because they think they have to, or they actually think bad cinematic productions are good--neither are things I want coming from a critic.

or they are a part of the industry and don't get fed breadcrumbs if they say nasty things

Love it when Mrs Chen goes full burn😂😂

"When anakin destroyed the death star." Hahahahahaha!😂😂😂😂

The chimp meme is exactly what i thought!!! Omg 😂

It just makes me laugh every time I hear the clip about “black women in the writing room” 😂 I’m sure that’s exactly what Lucas had in mind when he created this entire universe or the countless fans that have given time and their sanity to helping further that dream. I bet George was just standing there one day thinking, “You know what I need? A horde of black women to keep care of my legacy. Yup. Cause they will know exactly what I want. What could go wrong?” 😉🤣

Nailed it! I like how you balanced your opinion. Well done. These reviewers saying this bs are hilarious, and you said it yourself, they’re telling on themselves. It’s amazing how often in this specific community, they contradict themselves with every passing sentence. And continues to be an overlapping issue that they will just play the victim over n over and blame blame blame! People are waking up to the games these directors and controllers are shovelling into our eyes n ears and the just consistently tell everyone that they are wrong and we are right, thinking if they say it enough, it’s true. But, I’m ranting, I love star wars, and these people are tarnishing the brand and literally are trying to mess it up on purpose. That’s one of two explanations I have come up with. The other is that they are trying to mind control children under ten so that they will believe these beliefs and have some kind of 1% raise in the already 1% population. I hope u understand what I mean and I don’t have to explain this. lol. What a messsssssssssss this show is. But I love what u said today so thank you for letting me air my grievances with this s***show

I saw it, i regret every second. I wasn't even paying full attention.

If Disney Star Wars is so popular and well regarded, let’s see them release another big budget movie into theaters instead of burying the brand on a struggling streaming service.

They should just get over it, nobody wants the garbage they're selling.

Star Wars was destroyed when the Force Awakens came out. This abomination is just the nail in the coffin ⚰️

Have I seen this before? Iger and Co. run Disney into the ground and then Iger and "friends" come to the rescue and offer to buy Disney?

Its the "Oh no" monkey for me. Lol!!!

They made the male knight jedi an absolute idiot who the girls were rolling their eyes at any given opportunity. Why even make him a knight jedi if hes just apparently incompetent? Everything felt forced and fake...

That actor who confused Anakin with Luke is a fool. You can’t be in a franchise and make a mistake like that.

If you've played Grand Theft Auto Vice City, there's a Civil Asset Mission, where you take over an Ice Cream business where the Ice Cream was a front for drug operations. The old lady in the scene when you buy the business hated children and said "Mommy doesn't love you, she hates you!" That's what I'm reminded of, of Leslye Headland and her lesbian mothers giving "Spice Cream" to kids.
