Sorry about the audio issues guys, my bad 💀

It's like they're trying their hardest to prove Cartman right.

Her wife being in this shows exactly how serious they took the project.

I'm getting so sick of not only Disney ruining Star Wars more and more, but just bought out megacorporations in general ruining everything we love.

It's a murder mystery. Star Wars has been killed and it's a mystery how the people who partcipated in the muder still have a job.

Reminding someone that their whole family died in a fire is such a dumb and insensitive thing to say, and that isn't even necessary for audience's context because they tell her backstory in Ep3 anyway.

The chanting reminds me of rings of power cringe, "the sea is always right"

The witches were a power of many, yet they died from a power of one who set rocks on fire.

im so beyond caring about anything Disney related. Is anyone expecting any quality at this point?

Disney hiring harvey weinsteins personal assistant is repulsive. I would also expect a better show when the showrunner is a sith acolyte in real life. Write what ya know leslie

Even with the audio issues this video still made 10 times more sense than the acolyte's story telling.

It’s very clear the creators of this show had to self insert into the story for their own petty ego and don’t give two shits about the canon or continuity of story

There's no way Headland didn't know or see shit. She probably did, and has dirt on people, and that's why she got the directing role haha.

Headland wasn’t Harvey’s assistant for a year, she was with him for six years.

You remember when Maul nearly killed Qui Gon on Tatooine? Remember stakes, remember everything you invested in this series?

"I give you, you." "You give me, me" So one's doing all the giving?

Disney: “For my next trick, I’ll shall put $300m into Mandalorian and Grogu as well as $350m into the Rey movie to a total net loss of $1 BILLLLLLLION” Take that bigots

22:00 - "My character, she's a par-ful leedah!" She runs a cult of a dozen women on a retreat to banish their anger thru interpretive dance and song. We have _very_ different definitions of "powerful" it seems.

At this point it's a question what don't we hate about it, The bad acting, the terrible cringey dialogue, the nonsensical plot, the again heavy handed politics of making the Jedi, who are effectively space police, the bad guys, the Lesbian Space Witches using the Force to Immaculately Conceive....I can't believe that's a thing and not just a stupid madlib. Everything, Everything about it sucks.

Kindly reminder: this gringefest has a budget of 180 $ Million ......allegedly. For 8 episodes, that run from 30-45 minutes. To put this into perspective: Dune-Part 1 cost only 145 $ Million to be made. John Wick- Part 4: 98 $ Million budget Top Gun Maverick: 160 $ Million budget And these are all big blockbuster movies with tons of elaborate action scenes, stunts, VFX, shot on location etc. etc. Hell, Godzilla Minus-One cost less than 15 $ Million to be made!!

Not everyone hates the Acolyte- just the people who have seen it.

the power of one, the power of two! the power of jonnyyyyy!

i don't even watch the Acolyte i just wait for the youtubers to scream and confirm my theory...it was bad.

Rocks can catch fire and kill powerful space witches in a bonfire that doesnt get near them. Wow

The acting at 7:48 is 10/10 Oscar material. I was deeply moved…to laughter and disbelief that this school play level writing and performance made the final cut. “tHaTs HeR!”

22:00 I love the way the actress has spent so much effort researching and developing her character that she improvises the description with 'it's very like', 'kind of cool', 'sort of'.

They made not only anakin the chosen third, but also made plagueis look like a moron

Johnny Depp got fired from Pirates of Carribbean by Disney, due to his Amber Turd case in England. And the Same Disney, has zero problem with hiring this female who worked closely for the evil island old man.

The thing is, the "Attack me with all your strength" isn't a new line, and in the right context with the right delivery, it can work. Shaw Brothers movies used it all the time (or variants like it), but you have to be a stonecold badass like Kiryu Kazuma in a final boss fight to pull it off, not this milktoast like wiff of a girl.

I mean, it kind of starts from the beginning, "OMG, Cate MOSS as a Jedi Master?! HELL yes!"..... oh wait, no, and she's dead to total stupid. Alien species just sound like... random folks with no discernable accent unless you're a non-American. "Ooh, hey, it's the guy from Squid Game? Cool! Are we gonna get more of a Kurasawa thing, like referencing back to 7 Samurai?" Oh, wait no, just a murder mystery with no mystery. "Fight me!" "No." "Well, I'll just keep killing innocent people until you show me how evil you are... How DARE you pull a weapon on me after I tried to murder you and everyone else here multiple times to make you fight me to the death!"

7:00 Technically, there could be a fire in space if there's an external oxygen source, like what might have been from that tank? Maybe? But it doesn't look like that. Without gravity, fire burns outward in all directions at once. It's really beautiful, actually.

9:54 Well, not with out reason the main character is named: Occupational Safety and Health Administration OSHA. Of course she, i'm sorry, they/them know how to properly use a seat belt and brace for impact.

They killed the X-Wing and Armada tabletop games. I'm officially done with Star Wars in its entirety.

this is cultural appropriation, they are making star wars without knowing what star wars is

Dude, I thought I was alone in my intense hatred of musical theater 🤝

I would have never imagined Disney could make such terrible descisions one after another. Awesome company Bob.

Headland stated once that she used to write Star Wars fan fiction when she was a teenager. Clearly she just copy + paste it and pretended to have a writers room (with people who never saw or read anything SW)... "Attack me! With all your strength!" makes much more sense now 🤦‍♂

I've been waiting for this. I can't believe we have makeup this bad 10 years post gamora.

Acolyte, to me, is simply derivative of ideas and story elements done better in other Star Wars moveis/series. Occupational Safety and Health Administration trying to prove her innocence is akin to Ahoska's Arc during season 4/5 in Clone Wars (can't remember exactly which one). Her also having a long lost twin and them being connected to the Force, like Luke and Leia. And them both being created using the Force....like Anakin. And showing that the Jedi are not as perfectly good as one may think...like the prequals, I could go on. My point is that, all the latter versions of the examples I gave that are present in the Acolyte, are done with actual grace and competency. The Acolyte comes off as a show simply praising the idea or concept, without taking into account the execution

7:20 if some comes and tell me my own life story.. I'd ask them "why the hell are you telling me things I already know about myself??"

How can i hate Disney's trash tv and movies? If they didn't exist, I'd have never found my way here.

Glad you're covering this!

Don't worry, I noticed the transition from the MIB Neuralizer back to you. And I appreciated it. Well done.

To add to your father in the casket in sequins analogy...and the funeral director is not only shocked that you're upset but accuses you of being a homophobe....

it's so astounding how bad it is that it can't have been an accident, and had to have been made terrible on purpose. but why?

She deep knowledge.... of where the bodies are buried, so to speak. She wasn't a dumb assistant for 4 years, she probably kept a black book which she is now using to her advantage. How else can you describe giving this nobody the reins of an entire franchise...

Every character just gives cringe exposition to each other telling each other things they already know very amateurish writing

The Haribo-witch with the "Lakritzschnecke" (black licorice wheel?) on her forhead allways amuses me.

Why jedi use the Force to open non locked doors?

"as above,so below" not even subtle

That witch edit almost made me choke on my food.

Only Headland would need 3 chapters to find an a-hole, and all she needed was a mirror.

If we lived in a just universe, the creators of this show would be making nothing more than a few cents per watch of their terrible content and Jonny Law would get $180 million for that awesome napalm joke. Alas, we do not live in a just universe.

Its amazing , everytime we think it cant get any dumber it gets worse. Is there a contest going on?

Don't know why your vomiting out the word 'musical theatre' like that made me burst out laughing but it did. The delivery was so great.

"I was only Epstein's pilot for a year. You work at Boeing for a decade and nobody says anything. But fly the Lolita Express for a year and it's a big deal?"

Compare the experience and credits of people pre-2019 and post-2020 at big studios. It's not a slope, it's a cliff.

It really is an achievment to make something so s hitty its beyond s hitty

So who brought up the marketing study that found that when playing Batman the boys want to be Batman in Batmans world but the girls wanted Batman to play house in the girls world? Was it Chris Gore

Just had to play that clip of the circus clown screeching "I'm a wiiiiiitch!" didn't ya?

The part of Anakin destroying the Deathstar really made me lol

I was going to ask why Disney doesn't make a Mon Mothma show if they are so obsessed with 'strong female characters', but then I realized that she's the exact opposite of what Disney wants from their 'strong women'

*"Always gay, they are. No straight. No lass. A top and a bottom."* - Master Yoda, speaking about the SHIT.

"...based." LMAO!!! I do adore you, J❤!

I felt this was coming.

I'm about 15 minutes in and the movement of the MOOTASH when it's trying to say MmmM Musicals is impeccable! It's good to be back Jonathan...

Based :) You know what's amazing though - remember after TLJ how KZfaq just blew up with a wealth of great content, it feels like that again, I can feel it like electricity in the air.

"Yeah so she was Harvey's personal assistant, no big deal!" Imagine if she had been an assistant of the Donald Drumpf, dood.

People who don't appreciate the magnificence of musical theatre deserve the power of manyyyyyyyy

If you understand what they are doing with the Chosen One/Chosen Twins thing it shows that the Force is Male. They shot themselves in the foot and saved Star Wars.

"This being Hollywood..." Sort of! It was mostly filmed at Winnersh Studios, just outside Reading, in England. I imagine they're lying low, hoping no one noticed...

4:32 To skip the personal insults and get to the actual criticism that has at least SOME validity every once in a while. You're welcome.

6:56 And that’s why Star Wars is fantasy and not sci-fi.

There is the scene in the Wrong Trousers where the Feathers McGraw is revealed to be the lodger after he removes the rubber glove from his head. Wallace: "YOU!!"

I didn't mind the audio issues, we got two episodes in one! 😊

Hahahahaha! I wonder how many people got that Nile Rodgers dig. That was hilarious!!!! It took me a second to even register what you said. bravo.

This is the review I was waiting for 😂😂😂

Your review is better than watching a show that cost 180 million. Bravo, Bravo.

that echo could be woven into lore as you losing your mind. It's canon now.

There is overlapping audio in a couple parts.

I just predicted how the ending is going to be. It begins with both sisters finally seeing their differences (who wouldn’t seen that coming?) join forces and defeat the smiley Sith Lord, or sort..? They grabbed their lightsaber and butter knife, but before they hit the final blow, they said the line! “The power of one! The power of two! The power of many!” *I would legit bet on anything that would be the ending!*

This was very entertaining, subbed and about to binge your stuff

The fact that someone looked at the dialogue in this show and went "yep, this is good" kinda tells you everything you need to know doesn't it.

"Wrong spect ratio...!!!" - Okay, that cracked me up.

If only it was Nile Rodgers. He'd funk up the Power of Maaaaaany chant.

I love how they give the girls drug cream desserts... They just know spice is in sw and prolly nothing more....

Great take! Kudos! Keep up the good work!

I think the most egregious use of musical theater in a tv series outside of Hamilton was that one episode of Grey’s Anatomy. Oh, and Osha definitely looks like Nile Rogers, I can’t unsee it.

The PC tower on the chair makes me nervous

This was so spot on that it HURTS :)

I really love your video of lotr ❤ great work !

Okay... not sure how I feel about the autism joker there because I am actually autistic, high functioning but I do still live with autism. You don't have to like Taylor Swift, I don't really care for her one way or another, but it's pretty low brow to equate personal taste in music to a mental condition someone has no choice to live with. Even if I were a fan of Taylor that still wouldn't justify the joke because Autism isn't synonymous with the word stupid, so don't treat it that way, please. I can't always pick up on emotions or grasp certain concepts the moment they're conveyed to me, but that isn't because I'm an idiot. My brain just doesn't always register something. That's probably why things like riddles can stump me. It's not a lack of intelligence, it's how my mind interprets information. When information isn't literally stated to mean exactly the words used to describe it, it's confusing. Ex: what has 16 wheels and flies? My mind would and did get stumped trying to figure out what kind of aircraft literally has 16 wheels. Turns out the answer was a dump truck because flies was a noun, not a verb. It still makes sense but my mind didn't immediately grasp the other concept. To be fair, that's the point of a riddle. However, my point about autism is that emotions and such can be just as confusing as a riddle, more so than the average person. It's a basic example, but it's the best way I can think to represent how a capable mind can reach a different conclusion from what's intended. And really, that's just one way autism can affect those with it. However, that does NOT imply a lack of emotional or intellectual maturity. It's simply a difficulty. Using autism as a synonym for stupidity or idiocy is basically like harassing someone for being left handed because they were born without a right arm. Autism is so much more complex than, "they just don't get it or don't understand," because autism is NOT a product of ignorance nor even naivety. It is a condition that people like me have to live with and while we can improve how we handle situations, it doesn't change how our minds work. We can be well read and knowledgeable, intelligent even, but no amount of learning will change our unique perception. Think of it like Elden Ring, there's no difficulty slider. You're stuck with the game as is, but you can change how you approach challenges within the game. Well, autism doesn't change within a person, but the person can develop strategies to deal with it in their life, but you can't perfect run, no hit life. Please, don't use autism a replacement for stupidity. It's insensitive and insulting. You can say people have trash tastes but you can't blame a mental condition for it.

Just before your video started I got an advertisement for Star Wars Acolyte 🤣

"So, Nile Rogers has been arrested... " HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

I love how media websites are really high as hell on copium over the backlash against this show.

he didn't mention this but as someone who knows an identical twin (triplets technically but the brother's not identical) that twin switch scene irked me. The first time I met her [my friend's] sister I was in no way tricked into thinking it was the same person

Excellent analysis and review 🖖

Fire can burn in space, but it's nothing like it's depicted here. It needs gasses to burn, effectively. So it should have been like a powerful flame jet, or a spherical radial fire. Not a camp fire to roast marshmallows on obeying gravity that's not supposed to be there..

You're not alone channels like midnight's edge WDW pro that park place. Echo Base network. And many others. Have been calling this out for years.

They use the power of jazz hands
