Totally agree with the force sensing working or not working depending on if its convenient for the plot. Same for the mind reading. Sol could have read Qimir's mind back in the apothecary shop but didn't for reasons.

@@ZakuPilot that tends to be how this show goes. There’s no rhyme or reason to any of it.

An acolyte in this instance seems more like a vampire familiar or a chess pawn who can be replaced without issue and used as needed until they are replaced by someone who is worthy of being trained. Thats the vibe I get from this show anyhow. I feel like Qimir has been using Mae all along in order to get to Osha because he knows shes the one who has discipline and real power and hes got no problem ditching Mae in the process of laying the snare for Osha.

Qim'rin was a former jedi stationed on the witches planet, he met the horn headed witch and they fell in love. He's actually the father of the twins Osha and May. Years later, Sol and the Jedi went to the witch planet to find him, discovered the force sensitive twins and decided to take them away. The Horned witch sought out help from Qim'rin (who was living alone in exile like Kalnaka) to stop them. The sound she heard in the witches coven was Qim'rin, and when the Queen witch found out that her wife betrayed her she attacked the jedi, which led to the slaughter of the other witches by the jedi in the ensuing chaos. Qim'rin escaped and later took Mae as his apprentice, vowing to get revenge against the Jedi for killing his baby momma horned witch and Osha. This is the only thing that makes sense to me lol 😂😂😂

I think the twist that Master Sol is hiding, is that the fire in the temple was put by Osha...that is why Qimmir feels closer to her, he sees the darkness inside her.

So, it would be an unreliable narrator? I’m not sure how I’d feel about that if they went that direction.

Qim'rin is the twins' father 😂

Like when padme dropped onto the animal right ??

I gave you the benefit of the doubt and was pleasantly surprised mostly about the overall lack of culture war bullshit in your review. Quimir's fighting style indeed reminds of "Wushu" or rather traditional styles of Kung Fu like Hung Gar (Which I train for fun) and he used his offhand most of the time to grapple, trap,balance himself and to use the force in tandem with his swings. He even used a overhead deflection move that was chained into another attack, which is s signature move seen in Dao forms. Who ever did his choreography knew a thing or two ablut Chinese fighting styles and we also see this in the hand to hand combat in other fights. But do yourself a favour and rethink endorsing Shad as someone who supposedly knows how fights work. If we completely ignore the discussion about his beliefs and his political takes, he has demonstrated several times lately, that he knows nothing about practical fights, has admitted, that he doesn't train properly, gets out of breath when doing a few swings and even made fun of several objectively good HEMA practitioners. But at the end of the day it is your own decision, who you want to collaborate with.

Thank you! I try to focus on story. To your point about Shad, I won’t pretend to know about how he trains. What I have seen him perform seems legitimate to my knowledge of HEMA. I know he does have chronic fatigue syndrome, which does affect his ability to train as much as he would want. However, I would be wary of equating someone’s physical ailments with a lack of understanding about a subject. I know he and Sell Sword had a spat a few months back, but that seemed largely on the part of Sell Sword. Not to say that Sell Sword doesn’t generally know what he’s talking about, because he does. I just don’t think he handled criticism about the particular subject at hand very well and Shad called him out on that. Perhaps Shad has been critical of other practitioners, but I wouldn’t know. Thank you again for you comments. Also, when did you start getting into Hung Gar? I’ve always been heavier set, so the movements seem well outside of my wheelhouse, unless I’m mistaken.

My question is, 'how is it that the helmet allows the sith to get into the heads of others, but prevents the jedi from getting into his?' Shouldn't it prevent the flow of the force in both directions? It doesnt seem the helmet would logically work as it does. (Ahh, the smell of burnt hair)

@greatwhiteapereviews if I were Disney, among all the things, I would do would be to hire one, or even a team, of science guys. Full-time PhD science guys whose jobs it is to conceptually develop the science of Star Wars in their stories. They'd be responsible for knowing how the existing science works and adding more. They'd also read the scripts and watch the new material before release preventing trees from falling then wrong way and remind the writers that hyperspace travel isn't instantaneous. I also think he/they could go around to all the comic cons and do presentations/meet fans as people would likely be interested and it would generate hype. [It would also be a failsafe against the junk writing we are currently seeing] With a budget of 180 million for one series alone having a guy, or team, of these guys would be a fraction of the budget.

@greatwhiteapereviews a billion dollar franchise really deserves all of these things and more. It'd be a bit tedious for the writers, but the fans deserve it and the story, characters and worldbuilding is what keeps the fans interested, or so I feel, so all of the above should be consistent. One of the things Disney doesn't realize, is the Star Wars galaxy is so established/deep writers and directors can't spend a week or two and just be 'caught up' and ready to start creating. They kind of treat is like cramming for an exam, when instead they should actually do the preparation required to make passable material.
