Acolyte burning
Added 2024-06-07 02:49:21 +0000 UTCMy contribution to the toxic waste dump that is currently the Star Wars IP.

Yeah, it was rough watch to get through. And regarding the dialog, some fans I saw defending it saying the original trilogy had some awful dialogue. Yes, some, while I don’t completely disagree, it was a different time and overall leagues better and wasn’t insufferable to listen to. Not to mention, some of the actors from the original actually put some effort in what they were given to make it sound less cheesy, especially Ford, who would improv in certain scenes. It also helps that characters are likable.

2024-06-08 16:25:41 +0000 UTCThere is no cohesion between scenes, the time jumps are insane and break believability within Star Wars, the dialogue is wooden and awful... there is SO much wrong with the first episode alone...

2024-06-08 16:04:43 +0000 UTCOkay, just finished it and still stand by what I said earlier, only with this, I see less potential. *Spoilers* I always try to give stuff like this a chance by giving it at least 3 eps before judging it, but I barely got through the first episode. And I just can’t understand some who’ve been defending this. I thought it started out okay in the beginning, but I immediately lost interest the moment they killed off Trinity with a wee itty-bitty leprechaun knife you’d find at a gas station. So what if she’ll appear in flashbacks, it’s still a waste of Moss’s talents and what could’ve been a good character. Hell, she’s the only reason why I wanted to give it a chance. Master Sol is decent, but I hardly give a crap about any of the characters so far. And you're so spot on with the set and costume designs, they should’ve put just as much effort into them like with Mando & Andor. I’ll stop before I overdo it and just say yet again another disappointment.

I also highly suggest watching both Nerdrotic and Critical Drinker. If anyone wants to develop good writing chops for stories and narratives, I highly recommend listening to their critiques, breakdowns, and discussions on Star Wars and the like.

2024-06-07 06:23:29 +0000 UTCThere’s so many ways they could make it a lot less of a dump, yet for whatever reason they choose not to.

2024-06-07 04:39:29 +0000 UTC@GamerLegend09 😅 I was happy too. I've seen fan cuts of the show that are genuinely moving. Having Hayden Christensen back as well felt super special. Also Rosario Dawson is the live action Eckstein is the voice actor pretty sure 😊

2024-06-07 03:56:50 +0000 UTCI'll take your word for it. The sequels were a shocker of a pill to swallow and nearly everything in that time period is a dead rubber as far as storytelling is concerned.

2024-06-07 03:47:48 +0000 UTC☺️ I personally was happy to see Ewan McGregor take up the mantle of Obi-Wan Kenobi again,😏 & Ashley Eckstein didn’t do too bad as Ahsoka Tano when I first saw her in Mandalorian or in her own series either

2024-06-07 03:43:34 +0000 UTCI've hated Star Wars since TLJ. They had an opportunity to do good after TFA and Rogue One, the latter being the best thing they have done with the IP, but everything has been dog water since then. The Acolyte is by far the worst. Not only preachy, but the actress who plays the twins is terrible at acting, and the set designs and costumes are cheap as shit.

2024-06-07 03:36:06 +0000 UTC🤭 yeah I’d say that’s accurate

2024-06-07 03:33:02 +0000 UTCNo tits in space. I just put it there to make the girl at least appealing to look at, unlike the show.

2024-06-07 03:32:11 +0000 UTCHave you seen it. Is this actually 1 for 1. Tits in space. 😂🤣

2024-06-07 03:28:29 +0000 UTCI haven't seen any trailers yet is it actually that bad? I was gonna wait until it's all out. Stuff like this could totally bother me but thankfully I go into most fiction with a pretty strong suspension of disbelief. There's absolutely been big problems with Disney but I've also enjoyed things they've made i.e Jedi: Survivor, Andor, Rebels & Tales of the Jedi/CW S07. Also love Visions as a concept. Have you enjoyed anything Disney has done with Star Wars? Even moments? Curious if you've felt similar to me. At the same time I'll be right there with you bashing things if they aren't up to par.
