The Acolyte Episode 6 - Well We've Never Seen THAT Before in Star Wars 

I’m a twin and people within seconds know who is who. The one time we tried a twin swap didn’t work at all

For a gen ed i took a mystery literature class and essentially it said twin stuff is dumb, so the fact they pull this shit w a professional budget is crazy

My dad and uncle are twins. They’ve been mistaken for each other before, but by strangers who happened to see both of them. They are very different, and very recognizable.

@@lens_hunter As a twin, people definitely can't tell us apart unless they've interacted with us for a while. It's pretty hard for people to figure out.

​@lsandjs9793 its Disney and they think we're all kids or idiots

lol it wouldn`t be so bad if it made any sense .. they just did that because of kylo ren ..adam didnt need to show anything .. what kinda sith is that .. i did love jecki ..they killed her

ironically a married lesbian wrote this episode

Nothing to worry Qimir is Asian, I think he could not satisfy her needs I bet Osha is used to longer lightsabers xD

HE? Did you misgender Bazil?

This joke was almost as cringe as this show

My favorite part is when Sol asks, "What are you?" and the Acolyte answered, "I am... the Acolyte..." It was truly one of the scenes of all time, it was even better than the part when the Acolyte said, "It's Acolytin' time!" and Acolyted the Jedi all over the place using the Power of Many. But what really sold it for me was the shocking plot twist in the finale when we realized that Qimir was in the Amazon with Osha's mom when she was researching spiders right before she died. The Acolyte was truly one of the most shows ever created, and it even Acolyted my highest expectations. 10/10 would watch again.

I know it's a joke, but I wanted to crush my skull with my phone for a few seconds...thank you

@@Historical-Stuff Hahaha!

When she said there's a tempest in me I cried

"there's this place in Mos Eisley.. and..."

So, my droid watching, she turns on me, with her whip, and she says: "I am your mother". She whips me. "Put... a chick... in it..." And she puts the whip into my ass. "The... force... is... female..."

That doesn't fit the narrative that Disney bad and George would have never done this.

Came to write all this but you nailed it

Yes, Kylo Ren shirtless was just as dumb as this. Although at the same time perhaps it shows how QImir is really a precursor to the Kinghts of Ren and Kylo.

It’s a perfect response to this show.

That's hairphobic

+1 on the impression that Sol knew all along, figuring out how far Mae would go. To me, the Osha/Quimir scenes were quite good, TBH. I think, it shows, how the dark side like trust issues, fear and hate can overwhelm you. It's already been shown in the transformation from Anakin to Vader - you don't just *popp* become evil, and to some extend there's no 100% wrong or right/good or evil. If they wanted it, to me that nailed that message quite well.

Who can blame her? He's hot

Biggest star wars channel on RU-vid and he forgets that jedi can often have their senses clouded by the dark side as they say numerous times throughout clone wars and the prequels

​@@DarkestKnightshadeI have to agree with you on that, but the writing just seems off. I also feel this shouldn't have been the introduction to the high republic. Only your true die hard star wars fans get what is trying to be portrayed while everyone else is lost bc they only know what they've seen from the previous films and shows, which the high republic is opposite it was the Jedi at there highest point to eventually there down fall before the phantom menace. If you have to watch review shows to understand what is supposed to be going on for the avg watcher than your show isn't written well. I think the bad acting goes in hand with bad writing. If the actor is great or strong and the writing isn't good than the acting will follow suit. If the writing is really good it can help the avg actor along with a good director. The 2 male actors Sol and QMIR are doing the best they can with what they got written for them. Amandala has some moments but the facial expressions look exactly the same for everything. Maybe no one is telling her different, hopefully it's not a case of everyone gets a trophy so no one's feelings get hurt

@@furious_wrath7079 i mean you do realise we are in the period of time where the downfall of the high republic begins right? The jedi at this stage dominate, but the are starting to become arrogant and complacent, as is seen, they arent taking these incidents as serious as they should. They demand kids to be tested, even in areas they technically dont have jurisdiction. They enforce behavior that isnt right (forsaking all emotions etc.) Luke was one of the greatest jedi ever and had emotions. He learned of the force when he was pretty much an adult. The entire first 3 episodes are about showing the mistakes of the jedi. The original trilogie is about showing the return of true jedi values. The jedi are good and try to be good but they never are perfect beings. They make mistakes and even bad things at times, even if with good intentions. sadly it seems starwarstheories is pretty blind to things that have always been part of star wars just because he ideologically doesnt seem to like this series. It aint great, its meh, but it aint as dogshit as many are trying to make it seem and therefore invalidating alot of the actual critique.

Yeah it’s also bollocks. The force isn't some radar that's constantly turned on. Vader (THE CHOSEN ONE) didn't instantly detect his own flesh and blood with either Leia OR Luke. Yoda, oh the great powerful Yoda was constantly going on about darkness clouding everything. Sol clearly has a lot on his mind, for one thing. Secondly, HE FIGURED OUT IT WAS MAE! There was no scene where that creature went and informed him. He figured it out via context clues, through convesation about her childhood and Pip. They didn't do the best job of portraying it but he did.

@@DarkestKnightshade dude, May has a fucking tattoo on her head! Is Sol blind? The writing of this show is indefensible.

Brilliant write it down!

I swear Theory nitpocks so mich about thongs that AREN'T even proplems. Makes it hard to take him seriously.

​@@vice2versafr. Show sucks ass but those are the wrong things to be making fun of. Make fun of the fact that the plot is stupid

​@@mattdragon1253 Right? It's hard to appreciate the real criticisms he makes when he's also complaining about Jedi eating food - like wtf?

I %100 agree with this comment. They are biological beings and they have their own natural cycle of bodily events. Just because they have The Force doesn't mean they don't take a dump or eat etc. We just don't really need to see ALL that in screen, unless if it's for a well written purpose or because the setting of the enviroment is in a way that requires them to show some humanization.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks this way. As someone with Motion Sickness whenever I ride as passenger in a car I have thought about how Space travel would feel for me

How Sol is not masculine Jedi?

Shrink balls 😂

Great line

That's why Osha used the heat lamp

The water was cold and he's also asian. She was probably looking because something was completely missing.

cmon, he just wanted her to touch his lightsaber and make it grow

Passion, emotion. Things osha is clearly having trouble with this whole season... Yeah dude you're so clever, its this scene amd only this scene. Come on man

Star wars nerds dont know what sexual tension looks or feels like

I think he gave Fisher some (not very convincing) story about why she couldn't wear a bra. And there was a bizarre photo shoot that seemed to involve slave Leia and darth vader on a beach. But I think most of that stuff was treated with a level of embarrassment - and 'corrected'. The slave leia thing could be defended as coding that Leia was a humiliated trophy - if taking it as face value meant that Jabba was into other species. She killed him with her chain (ie. the instrument of her subjugation), didn't she? But taking a gander at smilo's wang seems... it's not exactly keeping things at a level of subtext.

Sure but same time he was also pointing out the nudity. Slight step up from Leia

This dudes approval about what is Star Wars and isn’t Star Wars is all over the place. Guess we forgot about Andor too

So first they're too powerful and now too weak? Y'all complain over anything 😂😂😂

@@DesignedAssassinSame mfers who say Jedi can’t be too powerful if they’re women, then complain when Jedi get outmaneuvered and die.

@@DesignedAssassin Are they mutual exclusive? Didnt know... Jedi Masters in The Acolyte are completely banal, they die just because. Meanwhile Padawans are extremly powerfull like X23 and Sabine in Ahsoka. There should be a reason why there is a hierarchy system to diferentiate the level of the Jedis, but its getting diluted because people who train for what amounts to nothing are capable of feats equal or greater than Jedi Masters. Thats a problem no?

@@DrMundo92Sol is a master and so is Vern and they are both easily the strongest in the show.

Dude, I'm sorry but if the only interpretation of the Jedi that y'all will accept is "larger than life" because that's how you viewed them when you were eight years old, then you're making it impossible for there to ever be any media made that takes a deeper look at them that will ever satisfy you. The problem is you, not the show. You have a child's mentality, and a need for every show made about the Jedi to coddle that mentality so that you can bathe in nostalgia and never grow up, and you need to work on that for yourself. It's time to grow up.

I seen better ones

@@evangingerson1271😂

The Blue Milk Lagoon

A very, very bad parody. There are a few adult movies out there that have better acting than this.

No, no it wasn't. Maybe you're not totally film literate and that's fine. It was to convey Qimirs control of the situation, he's willing to stand there naked and defenceless in front of Osha. It’s also meant to symbolise the allure of the dark side of the force.

It's always been for everyone and it's always been pretty diverse. That's why it's hilarious to hear these activists claiming they're somehow advancing Star Wars like everyone else before them has failed. The sheer narcissism of these people...

@@marzipanmonkeyKathleen Kennedy is literally a textbook sociopath.

Cake? 🍰

Might be the best thing that’ll come from the show

"So Sol now has the Jedi assassin in his ship who killed Trinity, I bet they're going to go against each other in a tough fight!" "Actually it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience."

barely an inconvenience...

Mae is so truly, utterly, abjectly pathetic and pitiable a character I cannot imagine that this isn't some kind of masochistic fetish or joke among the writers. Absolutely everything she sets out to do, she fails at, comedically. She is actually like the butt of every slapstick joke, one of the Three Stooges but the other two abandoned you for being such an embarrassment.

The lame thing though, is that Trinity let her, she never really fought back, just defended, even when she could've incapacitated the girl without killing her

@@wolfmauler For a vengeance-fuelled Jedi slayer, Mae sure has killed no Jedi at all basically.

Speak for yourself. I watched the original trilogy in theater as a kid, but fell in love with the prequels all the same. As a matter of fact, I consider them the superior movies.

@@fundhund62 obviously I’m not speaking for everyone. But I do believe that most people are more easily impressed earlier in life and left with a sense that what they experienced at that time was the best. How many parents think that the best music ever made was from their youth and that music today can’t live up to music from decades ago?

@@xiaoyang4571 Of course. But with regards to Star Wars there are many different factors at play. Are you open-minded to follow where an author/ creator takes you, or do you expect him to cater to your wishes? And get angry if he doesn't oblige? Can you appreciate quality art, or do you dismiss everything you don't like in a kneejerk reaction, calling it "objectively bad"?

Exactly! This and other things that are going clear over star wars theory bald head. Its sad because he's really missing some interesting stuff but cant even think straight because he already had it in his head that he hates the show. Hes really losing a lot of credibility. Thankfully we have new rockstars to give accurate breakdowns.

@@VikTheRebel oh no, I agree with him. and I hate the show too. I'm just pointing this out. yea u got the wrong take homie

​@@VikTheRebel i swear that part made me stop watching theories review. Its such a pointless complaint thatakes me question his credibility.

I think post Pablo Hidalgo incident kinda drove him into the arms of the cynical side of the fandom.

I agree. I'm not particularly enjoying The Acolyte but some of the criticisms seem to contradict a lot of previous things Theory liked.

I think he needs to talk to a therapist about his attachment to his childhood. Idolising the past as much as he does is not generally seen as a good thing It's ironically the opposite to what his idol Lucas did who was always looking forward

He realised he can make more money by getting more engagement from both sides of the fence with this current personna. Shit here i am arguing with people proving me point here and making him money basically. See it works lol

While I agree that certain things under heavy fire are a little out of proportion, it's hard to really defend a 'new thing' if the new thing isn't really all that good. For example, the witches referring to the Force as the Thread, imo wasn't really all that bad. They were secluded and weren't hammered with the concept of the Force like the rest of the galaxy. They grew up with their own interpretation of it, and that's fine. What's not fine is destroying the concept of Force conception with the idea that random witches can do it on call. I think where Disney as a whole f****ed up is when they did away with all the SW media we fans grew up loving and saying it wasn't canon, in favor of whatever the hell they made up. I always thought the coolest thing SW could do was adapt the Old Republic into a show or movie. A time where there were armies of Jedi and Sith duking it out... a time where there were way more Mandalorians... etc. But then Disney said no, and started doing their own thing. Many were open minded at first, and then the 'new things' just didn't hit with viewers. Instead of bringing people in, it's turning people away. Doesn't help that a lot of their writing choices are deliberately done bc of pandering to certain 'concepts'. There are tons of IPs that have included people of different lifestyles and backgrounds that people love, but the difference between them and stuff like this is 1. the marketing and 2. the delivery. Shows like this do it in such an obnoxious way that people hate it and see it as 'agenda'. When the director and actress being interviewed giggled happily about it all, it told many fans to expect a story that was going to tell them how to view people and not decide for themselves. I agree, some call outs that you just named are a bit petty and not the core of the problem, but that doesn't change that there is indeed a problem. Theory has pointed out lore problems with this show, but since he is doing it on an episode by episode basis, he has to simply address what he feels about this specific one. His other videos on episodes with lore breaking content, he addresses respectively.

Yeah, that was stupid too

Most of the other stuff he says is equally ridiculous so consider this a wakeup call. He goes into these with the mindset "Disney bad, now how do I justify that?" and works backwards.

@@F0XD1E Well there is a good amount Disney does wrong but no everything

Yeah, I didn't like this episode but so many of the nitpicks theory made seem like they're out of sheer ignorance

Yeah he complained during the watch party about that too, but he probably just forgot that Mae left her there and that he found her. He makes the breakdowns right after the watch party.

I didn’t get that question either - it was pretty obvious that he took her there after finding her at the end of the last episode.

No wonder why he can't remember luke eating in almost every movie he was in

@@lgc41004 yeah this episode was pretty bad and the show is nothing special, but so many of theorys criticisms in this video felt so asinine

Adding to that, it really irked me when Vernestra and manly Jedi were standing amidst the pile of dead bodies, Vernestra said "we need to return to the ship", started walking out of frame, and THEN said "prepare the bodies for burial". Like what were they going to do? Walk back to the ship, which has already been previously established as a long and arduous walk, and THEN come back for the bodies?

The fat Jedi won’t get a shirtless scene?

As a form of recompensation, I demand to see shirtless scenes with pretty actresses. It would only be just and equal, no?

So you're shitting out all that despite reshoots and even bigger production overhauls being a big part of lucasfilm modern film making history. With your baseless argument duel of fates would've gotten the full go ahead.

That isn't even what that scene is referring to. In the novels hyperspace travel causes Vernestra to have uncontrollable force visions. It's a reference for those who have read the books to go "oh cool", but without that knowledge I can see how it might seem quite goofy.

Anakin had a shirtless scene as well in rots

That's an ADIDAS soccer jersey from the 70's!

No but Mae is not powerful enough to do that

Finally the IBS+ community have representation in Star Wars.

Firstly, there is precedent for this in legends. Secondly, even if there wasn't - Is it so inconceivable that in this universe of wizards and witches and magic and aliens that SOME people would not respond well to hyperspace travel?
