Episode 7 will be releasing tonight and I have a good idea what its going to show us, another flashback paired with Episode 3, the most divisive chapter of the Acolyte so far. In this video we take a look at the director of episode Kogonado and what he can bring to the franchise. We also theorize about what will happen tonight.

Seriously they wouldn’t get near as much hate - unlike Game of Thrones where most people haven’t read all the books and the lore is kinda of vague there is a lot of speculation and really cool conversations, with Star Wars there is such a complete detailed lore that anything that “ruins” your child hood favorite comic, book, media, etc. is fair game for hate

I strongly agree with this. I think both the Marvel and Star Wars Shows are better off with a binge format. I understand that you get more engament by spreading them out but none of the episodes are long enough to get much out of them. I think I'm the only person who enjoyed Secret Invasion, and that's because I watched it all at once instead of when it was being dropped week to week.

@@mr.boomguy dumb people don’t like that Disney is “too woke” now and hired a lesbian woman to be in charge of the show. Then they got more mad when there were female lead characters raised by a coven of “lesbian” witches. They think that too much emphasis is being put on identity of the characters as well as the cast/production team, yet they’re the ones that are putting just as much emphasis saying they don’t like said identity politics. People also are using the fact that it’s breaking some parts of canon and “not what George Lucas would want” and blaming it on the fact that it’s a lesbian woman and Kathleen Kennedy in charge. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like Leslie Headland or Kathleen Kennedy, but it’s because of the fact that they are women. I just think they’re not doing a great job.

Regarding Kogonata and his talk of extras, you gotta watch the ritual scene again, there are two black hooded figures flanking the ritual near the dark side looking hole, they are included in many shots, one particular one almost is an over the shoulder shot of one hooded figure while the other takes up a third of the screen. They do not participate in the ritual and only react when the twins appear and when the jedi are mentioned. The camera cuts away at the mention of the jedi and when it comes back the two figures are gone. Watching it back with this after this was pointed out, they are very clearly, in my opinion, the two sith lords, having some interest in the twins and the force magic used to create them and indoctrinate them into the coven. Honestly the 3rd episode was pretty great for me and a look into alternative interpretations of the force and more passive, well meaning uses of the dark side has been something I've wanted to see for a while. The negative response has been crazy and I don't think it would have happened if Qimir or Yord were the lead characters. Been looking forward to episode 7 and been enjoying the fair and reasonable coverage by Generation Tech.

I am a VERY opinionated person, fan of the old canon more than the Disney canon, and quite dislike a LOT of the new things put out. And I like this show. It's interesting. I like a good mystery. I'm also very sick of people judging the show for having such a "bad plot" when we don't KNOW the full plot yet. You cannot judge a mystery until you have the solution. Only then can you see if it was worth it, if the foreshadowing was good enough to figure it out, if the solution satisfies the setup. I actually think this show is on par, and maybe slightly higher, than Ahsoka. Definitely higher than Kenobi or Book of Boba Fett. Lower than Mandalorian, and Andor... is a league of its own.

I'm not mad at the unreliable narration, just the execution. So far, the script feels more like a 1st draft with parenthetical all over saying (beef this up, explain, rewrite dialog) that were never circled back to and went straight into production, especially the dialog. Granted, I'm an author and former developmental editor so my take is likely different than many reviewers, and I'm holding my review and evaluation of the storytelling aspects (separated but not dovorced from the acting and directing) until the series is finished, but there have been some choices made visually that I've taken note of and find disappointing.

It really is fantastic to spend around twenty minutes an episode both celebrating Star Wars, and hearing someone talk as a person, as opposed to a sound board for common illogical drama and nonsense. So thank you, your work is truly appreciated and inciteful. I just wish there were more people like you out there.

A fully warranted pre-watch video, everyone please watch all of this. This series isn't perfect but the rage-campaign isn't being fair to it in any sense. I feel all I need to say is "Hitchcock" or appeal to the classic mystery genre. Star Wars is so campy I can't believe people get offended by what they think is positioned radical left content. No, all the content is in fact not that, despite the personal politics of whoever. There aren't messages meant to indoctrinate. Its a good old campy space opera, plus classic mystery/unreliable narrative, plus excellent action, and surprisingly excellent writing and craft in the extras. This RU-vidr made this video to draw attention to tonight's episode, not to spoil but to get in a frame of mind to appreciate potential quality in it by highlighting the director. Yes, there are a few flaws in the series, but in whole it is a lot better than expected. I'm really drawn in, I didn't expect to watch any of The Acolyte but now I'm hooked.

​@@stevereynolds5684 your ableism is showing. I have autism. my sister has bpd. we said horrible things to each other all the times, she got me involved with creepy men. she claims to still love me everyday. she was never psychotic, but people love to throw illnesses and labels around like you know what your talking about. she was just mentally ill 8 year old with no emotional regulation, not understanding stranger danger and getting into drugs. did you ever take the time to consider Osha and Mae may not be healthy kids given they are force sensitive children (the force is well documented to be corrupting like drug addiction) who were raised by dark side witches? I used to cut my arms open and had to be rushed to the hospital because of what you would call small disagreements. according to you, my autism and ptsd behavior is psychotic. I bet you think you know the solution too. but you don't, you come off as the type of person who would have seen my sister and I as monsters and try to drop us off as someone elses problem at the drop of a hat. Mental institutions, kicking us out to the street, prison, anywhere other than your own home. Luckily my parents didn't do that and now we are both happy and successful adults. my sister even has to kids who are surprisingly healthy minded. I'm glad your kids are happy and healthy normal 8 year olds. It means you took care of them well. But it also means you probably had the easiest kids, with good genetics, as to not have to face these problems that people are telling you is normal to them. TLDR - that's because Mae and Osha aren't healthy kids. they are force sensitives raised by dark side witches. unhealthy children existing in media is not bad writing. calling their behavior psychotic and sociopathic is armchair therapy. you have no qualifications to do that, you are not a therapist. at least I hope your not. because I would hope a parent of 4 healthy kids would be raising them with compassion and not ableism.

@@jonathanmendiola3775 that’s the point. This is a new story with new characters. There’s a thing called character development.

Like I keep saying, be happy they aren’t trying new stories with legacy characters. This is exactly what they’re supposed to be doing, making us ask questions about new characters, not killing all of our legacy characters in a shitty trilogy. This show is the best Star Wars live action show besides mando, when it comes to story. Acting, isn’t peak, fighting is, insight into the dark side of the Jedi. This shit is gas man. I’m rewatching this show before andor and obi wan. Ahsoka gets a nod bc of that 1 episode (you know which one) but the rest raises more questions than answering while using legacy characters. Where the fuck is thrawn??? What’s ahsoka going to do now? Every question posed in any Star Wars content is always either answered or left open to interpretation. So I ask you the same question, how was it not good? Just because plaeugis didn’t appear? Or because the Jedi aren’t perfect?

I do think think that casting Amandla as twins was a mistake, but I think she’d have done perfectly well if she’d only played one of them. I’m actually perfectly fine with how she portrays Mae, because Mae is a bit like Reva from Kenobi: half dangerous scary killer and half confused traumatised kid, and I think Stenberg conveys both sides of Mae pretty well. But I think she’s slipped up on Osha, she started off well there too, in the first two episodes she did well in portraying the personality differences of the two but episode 4 onwards Osha has effectively become “Not Mae”, and while her mood darkening somewhat at having to face her past traumas is somewhat understandable I think they went too far in that direction to the point where the characters barely feel any different.
