I'm 49 years old so Star Wars has literally been a part of my entire life from the point I could actually acknowledge, understand, and remember. There are very few things in this life that bring me the joy that Star Wars always has. I was furious with the creative direction regarding Luke Skywalker in The Last Jedi, I was slightly underwhelmed with both Boba Fett and the Kenobi series, the Mandalorian had some pretty wonky episodes peppered in between some of the best Star Wars we've gotten since 1983, but I have never not been beside myself excited for new Star Wars…… until now, I have tried to keep an open mind and I've tried to enjoy the Acolyte, but I just can't find anything about the series that pleases me in any sort of way. When it comes to the topic of the budget, I swear the show's set pieces look more suited to be tied in to The Land of the Lost than Star Wars!! I believe we're good, one and done with this series please!!

@@RiceDaddy07 Witches. I guess thats just an addition. But this force dust thing where you become the force is odd and pretty new. Hedlund said she wanted to create her own, or new witches. A Jedi Knight isnt strong enough to force pull two tiny girls before they both fall. Sol stabs Aniseya when she is dust and she immediately rematerializes. Osha and Mae lessen Anakins importance. Indara says to the witches they cannot deny the Jedis right to test the girls. But then contradicts herself immediately after and says "with your permission of course". If it is a right then why do you need permission? She also told Sol she will go in alone so they dont appear as a threat, but then immediately changes her mind and says ok we all go. If you all go you appear as a threat? Why didnt they just knock on the door? Why is Sol so enamoured with Osha? Then she fails as a Jedi Padawan. Sol is a Knight yet is falling to his emotions too much in his pursuit to "rescue" Osha. Who he hasnt even met yet. Torbin is an emotional wreck. Trinity is the only one who is calm and in control. Kelnacca would have been in control but the witches were able to enter him. The witches could have just entered Seoul and Torbin instead. Obviously, I think the writing is just horrible. I dont like this show. Its been established that you can scan planets and find structures or energy or whatever. Why didnt the Jedi scan the planet and know there was a major fucking structure on the planet and not even that far from where they landed.

The Acolyte has much more in terms of new ground to cover in a potential Season 2. Obi-Wan is always going to be constrained by the need to get the characters back into position for ANH, and that severely constrains the plot as a result. Another issue is that Disney NEED content for Disney Plus, otherwise people will unsubscribe. They need to be making SOMETHING, just to keep things ticking over. With The Mandalorian Moving to the big screen, they may well hope that The Acolyte picks up viewers over time - I'm already pretty sure that rewatching it once episode 8 comes out will improve it.

The concept at a high level is fantastic, but the execution was terrible. I was excited for each new episode of The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, Andor, and Obi-Wan. Even though I wasn't thrilled about The Book of Boba Fett, it was still much better than this. The acting, directing, writing, art direction, set design, and props are all subpar. I hoped The Acolyte would be more like a PG-13 suspense horror series, which it had the potential to be. Instead, we got something that feels like Twilight with Land of the Lost backdrops. This is a stain on the Star Wars brand. I'll watch the last episode, but I'm already disappointed.

Season 2 of The Acolyte is fiscally doubtful unless E8 can generate hope. Season 2 would not have the big budget unless Disney top-brass approves it. Where many want Star Wars and the big money going is the Omega vs. Thrawn buld-up. But before that occurs, Omega joins Hera and Ezra on missions to retrieve Ahsoka. But in doing so, Omega is captured by Thrawn on behalf of Palpatine. It takes Asajj and Fennec, along with possibly Boba and Mando with Grogu to rescue Omega. Omega then joins Asajj and Fennec on missions, learning all about The Force, the Night Sisters, the Sith, the Knights of Ren, and Assassin Martial Arts, to ready herself as not only an amazing strategist but also a fierce and passionate leader, as she comes back to take on Thrawn and the re-emerging Empire.

They could be mentioned in passing or something like that but this season as a whole doesn’t need to be expanded on anymore in my opinion. Not in any great detail at least. If there’s another season, they need to move on from this debacle and focus entirely on Plagueis and Sidious. Or even Tenebrous and Plagueis would be awesome, and less of a time jump. This entire storyline from this season can and should be simply moved on from and pretty much forgotten.

As for Qimir, he is probably a fallen apprentice of Vernestra during her time that she left the Jedi Order, and when she returned she couldn't bring him with her because he would've never been accepted by the council. Since she has a purple crystal like Mace Windu, she has to balance the darkside with the light in her, and she probably realized she didn't temper Qimir's darkside enough and when he felt abandoned by her, they probably had a falling out which is where he got his scars, and probably left him abandoned on that planet with the cortosis, which just happens to be were Tenbrous own a pocket of that ore-in the EU/Legends the planet Bal'demnic is described to be an ocean planet adorned with rocky tropical islands.

If not a season 2, I just want more high republic or old Sith lord stuff. I love Andor and Mandolorian, but I am sick of Skywalker-saga stuff.

If watch season 2. Buy maybe Make it a film since they’re worried about budget. I think better writing would be in demand from the studio if it gets greenlit for a film

I haven't been the biggest fan of the Acolyte, due to the writing, the acting, and where the budget went. I mean, I get everything is more expensive, but... I also won't be put out if there is no season 2. I get that Lucas sold the franchise so others can add their spin, but for the love of all things holy, hire actors that are actual fans, as well as decent actors if there is a season 2. It feels cold and distant because an obvious agenda was pre-planned before ink hit paper, and it shows.

What if Mae and OSHA are plagueis?

It depends for me. There ARE good ideas buried in this mess, and if we got new direction and way better writing, maybe this could do what The Next Generation did after it’s pretty bad s1 and turn into something good. But… Disney needs to fire everyone who had anything to do with the script, direction, cinematography and set design and bring in people who actually know what they’re doing.

All the controversy of opinions on the show aside, I have really enjoyed the first season so far, and I can't wait for the finale tomorrow!

It’s a great time to be alive! Star Wars content being moved forward. We could do without the fanboys and the alt right trying to hijack Star Wars but other than that, everything is great.

There is a culture war going on. It is obvious. Everything which seems to be left gets hate from the right-wingers.

Maybe viewrships matter less than new subscriber numbers? If Disney get 10 million new subscribers because of the acolyte, maybe it is no big deal if the show bombs.

Andor was more about the rest of the galaxy, which has more tangible issues than the spiritual issues most of Star Wars deals with. I think it was more relatable to people who weren’t necessarily “science fantasy” fans. The more episodes revealed in the Acolyte, the less I like it. It’s disjointed, amateurish, and had no character development. It’s really a shame, because it could have been a really good series with better writing and direction.

I heard the ratings are only second to Obiwan, that puts it ahead of even Mandelorian, so a season 2 is likely

The thing is with Disney it all comes down to bad writing and directing and ultimately poor execution, they just bring in new unrelated characters that don't really matter and just don't sum up Star Wars, instead of focusing on central characters and going from there. In the Acolyte it should of been sith all the way through or shift ever further towards the sith and its philosophy. Sad shame really, I think Oasha and Mae were fine as characters but poorly written plot that diverged

Andor war Star Wars for grown-ups, written by grown-ups. The Acolyte was another missed opportunity, written by ChatGPT
