The Acolyte Episode 7 THE WORST DISNEY STAR WARS YET 

I like how Trinity killed all the witches simultaneously by unplugging them from the Matrix. Very inspiring.

*turns into a smoke demon* “Why did you stab me?”

I allways thought “how deep your pocket book is” was a reference to how much money or connections you have. I didn’t know it was a sexual innuendo

Failure of ONE Failure of TWO Failure of MANNNNNYYYYYYYYY

I read somewhere that Acolyte (Disney SW) is like a creepy stranger wearing your dead friend's clothes (original SW) and pretending to be them.

How we got from Mando Season 1 to this in 2024 is an astronomical case that needs to be studied

Revenge of the Sith : $114 million The Acolyte : $180 million Hmmm?? difference : $66 million Coincidence?? or is it a clue to laundering order 66?? dollars!!

"We need to find a way to give some depth to Torbin." "Ok, maybe he's fed up of his assignment and wants to go home?" "Oh, you mean like a kid who's homesick at summer camp?" "Exactly!" *HIVE FIVES ACROSS THE ROOM*

Leslie headland pulled the "you think episode 3 was bad?" move

This story is the nightmare Anakin was having that woke him up in Revenge of the Sith. 100%

The worst part was when anesaya tells sol "the jedi are going to destroy itself" before turning into a smoke demon, gets stabbed, then says "also I was going to let my daughter join thay group of people that are going to destroy itself"

One thing to note about all the unnecessary sexual implications in this show. Leslie Headland was the former personal assistant of Harvey Weinstein. I say no more

“The most sexual thing in Star Wars was Dexter” *my sexual awakening at slave leia exits chat*

I never thought I'd see the day where Theory ranks something lower than the sequel trilogy. I underestimated Disney's incompetence.

Can we start a petition to get this show deemed as non-canon??

They really milked the idea of the 4 Jedi doing terrible things for 6 episodes for it to be this lukewarm misunderstanding and not something that really needed a cover-up or hiding from Osha.

I feel bad saying it, but even the actor for Sol (who I highly respect) clearly can not even act properly with this terrible writing.

SW fans since 2012: This deal keeps getting worse all the time

What I like to think of is "none of this is Canon" simple as that, don't care if official's say it is, it's not

OSHA and Meh screaming each others names on a collapsing bridge and holding out their hands to each other instead of taking giant steps backwards will always make me wonder how these people are paid in millions 😭😭 "WhAt hAvE yOu dOnE" "nO, WhAt haVe yOu dOne" X3 I'll be sitting there screaming "PLEASE JUST FALL"

Feeling sad for actor who portraits Sol. The guy is a huge SW fan, even studied english to be part of his favorite franchise and they gave him a role (and he makes a pretty good job) in such poor series.

Mae: *starts fire* Mae a few seconds later: *OMG A FIRE!*

The Acolyte is just so unenjoyable I tried watching this episode over and over so that i could watch this video afterwards and i finally just caved and watched this video anyway. Episode 7 was so bad i literally couldn’t finish it.

How did this broken cheapie Torbin get the title of Jedi master?!? 16 years ago he was just a Padawan, 6 years later he somehow became a Master, and then for 10 fuuuung years he, the Master of Jedi order, immersed himself in a meditation of guilt... How is this possible

I’m proud of Sol, he killed that Dark Souls boss Aniseya when she was about to enter her phase 2. He also took down that awful parent Koril who encourages her daughter’s murderous anger, Sol’s the real hero!

I hated this episode to a high degree but what KILLED me was the "Star Wars End Credit "Song". MY GOD WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!!!!

"THE POWER OF MMMMAAAAANNNN........." *Everyone dies* So dumb.

I miss the old Star Wars where every scene in the movies/tv show actually had meaning and a reason for being shown to the audience.

Denis Villeneuve took $165million & created Dune Part 1, 2hrs 35mins of a masterpiece in cinematic history. Disney has taken $180million and so far produced over 3hrs of utter nonsense. Half the Acolyte scenes are shot on sound stages (very obviously), with some out on location scenes but nothing as impressive as Andor. After 7 episodes I can honestly say, it hasn’t been worth the money invested. The story is just boring. There has been no character development, so you don’t care about the twins, or their coven who all died in the stupidest way imaginable, looked like they were unplugged whilst still in the Matrix. Everyone called the ‘Sith’ reveal about 3/4 episodes before it happened. Episodes 6 & 7 haven’t progressed the story in any way. Episodes 3 & 7 are the same episode, Disney could have saved time, cut the repeated parts and just merge into one long episode. But worst of all is the show runners obvious complete and utter ignorance of the lore surrounding the universe. Why did she have to devalue the prophesy of the Chosen One, by making out that a coven of all female witches did it first less than 100 years previously, what was the point? Other than pushing her own agenda. Shattering canon by having the one character from the Phantom Menace who disavowed the existence of the Sith, saying they’d been extinct for a millennia; being part of the Jedi group talking about someone trained in the Jedi arts killing Jedi. Making Jedi overly emotional. Despite what Disney & its shills try to push as to the reasons The Acolyte has bombed. It comes down to a complete ignorance of the lore, breaking established canon, poor scripts and otherwise talented actors wasted in roles that I am sure they did the best they could, with the twaddle they were given.

This episode also delegitimized Torbin killing himself. He did nothing to be guilty of. Sure, he ran off without backup to the coven. But Sol caught up to him. And once they climbed the mountain he only activated his lightsaber after the one coven mama raised her weapon. And then he just deflected some arrows and got beat by the Wookie. There's no reason for him to have drank that poison.

Remember when they first announced the series, and we thought it would be a series about a younger Sheev Palpatine, and his Master Plagueis? God, how great would that have been? Instead we’re stuck with a coven of angry “peaceful” witches who call the force “the thread”, and are powerful enough to make Anakin the third (technically second) “copycat” force child in the Galaxy. The Jedi are now murderous oppressors, who obsess over force sensitive children. Established Star Wars hall of famer: Ki-Adi-Mundi is now a liar and a hell of a lot older. There are brand new force powers that I guess were forgotten to time by the events of the prequels…? Sigh… I’m just over it. Star Wars is officially an unfortunate meat suit for the culture war, being paraded around for the few other like minded people to enjoy as the rest of the world watches in horror…

3:28 I thought Obi wan & Dex scene was about the secret power of having a lot of money or having "deep pockets" or a "deep pocketbook/wallet"

Revenge of the sith budget - $114m Acolyte - $180m Differences - $66m They executed order 66 on star wars with this show

Sol: “I want the girls” (in a mildly creepy obsessive way). Witch: *says nothing and immediately bursts into a smoke demon* Sol: *without saying a word, stabs smoke, kills witch* Horned witch: (even though it’s a slowmo scene) *is randomly frozen in place with a stick and let’s other witch die* Witch:*surprised Pikachu face* “why have you killed me?… it was blatantly obvious I was letting her go… but maybe I should have just talked it out and give a heads up of what I was doing… my bad” Sol: *oops* “welp, Where my girls” 🎉 Horned witch: *turns into smoke demon* Sol: *just watches* DEAR LORD GIVE ME STRENGTH! I can’t take this anymore… there is no way this can be wrapped up in one episode.

I know we always joked about Disney killing Star Wars… but this is legit assassination of our once beloved brand.

Now I know they're trying to make Sol into a Qui-Gon replacement. It's so blatantly obvious at this point that I don't think anyone can disagree.

Yes, it worse than The Last Jedi. Rian Johnson can now rest knowing someone else damaged Star Wars more than he did.

Just a reminder that the Dune sequel's production budget is just north of $190 million dollars.

This just shows how sensitive and ignorant our society has become. Disney has now made the word “Sith” become a derogatory term. This is why I hate Disney and refuse to watch anything Star Wars related made by them!

Felt like a middle-school-play version of Star Wars.

You guys wanna laugh? This show has the same budget as house of the dragon... Someone at Disney is clearly stealing some money

I like how we all went "The jedi must have done something to explode the base right?" cause it was too silly to think a human being could write that a tiny lamp fire burned a stone structure and destroyed the facility. But then they actually did have that be what actually happened. By god....

The scene where Sol struggles to hold up the bridge symbolizes Lee Jung-jae straining to carry this bad series with his acting chops alone.

I am 55 years old, I saw Star Wars in 1977 when it came out and fell in love, I have seen it over 200 times and love episodes 1-6 and the spin-offs with the exception of the Sequel Trilogy which I cannot imagine ever watching again. I love Rebels, Bad Batch, Rogue One, Andor, the Mando and related stuff, and Clone Wars. I thought Kenobi was disappointing but ok, I loved seeing Anakin and Obi Wan, etc. This, the Acolyte, I cannot even, I don't even know what to say actually. It is painful and embarrassing to watch, it is ridiculous, each episode gets worse and I don't even know what the point is, what in the world is happening here? It is horrible, not just horrible Star Wars, but just bad overall for anything, and I am so into Sci-Fi. I don't know if I can bear watching one more episode. I just want it to be over and go away. Can we please go back in time and make it not happen?

This show went from an over budget disaster in ep1-2, to lore breaker in ep3, to throwing all logic out the window in ep4-5, to now just the worst piece of entertainment media ever created. This is truly an accomplishment Kathleen Kennedy and Leslie Headland should be proud of.

We don't see the Zabrak with the rest of the witches. I have a feeling she is still alive.

There was one where the dialogue is: SOL: OSHA!! OSHA: Maeeeeee!!! MAE: Oshaaaaa!! Cuts to SOL: SOL: OSHAAAAA!!

Wait, the pocket book quote is a sexual joke? I thought he was talking about how big Obi-Wan's wallet is (or rather how much money he had), as a wallet opens up like a book and you keep it in your pocket.

Isn't it funny how they think we're threatened by diverse cast or female leads, when Rogue One, Andor, House Of The Dragon and Shogun had really high scores by the audience?

I think The thing that pisses me off most is how the writer keeps bringing up gaslighting. Bigoted fans etc……. All of us fans say hey, the writing is shit, and the acting is bad. And enstead of listening, Then says were racist and homophobic. Thats the definition of gaslighting, and your gaslighting an entire fanbase while simultaneously complaining about it. Like hey buzz cut beavis. Come down off your god damn pedestal already!

Yes, holding the bridges up instead of the girls made no sense, but lets be brutally honest here. NONE of the usage of the force by Jedi or Sith have been consistent or make sense the vast majority of the time throughout all the SW universe. We see force users continually force push and force stop weapons (including light sabers), bowling over myriads of bad guys or moving structures that weight a ton, but not once do they use it in light saber battle to get the upper hand, even though they have used it on a limited, non-lethal basis during duels. Many a duel could have been ended quickly by a little force push over a cliff or something. It has never been consistent or logically used in any of the media. The only explanation is that there is a code of ethics amongst duelers that victory or defeat is based on your light saber abilities and not using the force lethally. Why a Sith who are out to destroy the Jedi would be cool with following rules makes any sense makes no sense to me, bu I don't know...

Leslye Headlands witches- The Galaxy does not like us Also these witches- Use dark magic to possess Jedi and cause infighting. And Leslye Headland has the nerve to scratch her head and wonder why people hate her vision of Star Wars

The Acolyte Name actually refers to the fact how this show is the evil amongst all of the Star Wars shows

The vergence thing wasn't about the witches creating the twins but about life manifesting itself on the planet that was supposed to be barren by the Hyperspace Disaster/Calamity.

I started dying laughing when I saw the female Zabrak with features of a male Zabrak. It’s like they literally did no research on what a female Zabrak looks like. 😂

I'm not surprised that Disney paints a horrible portrayal of the jedi. They are the siths

This show is literally from "The Producers": Pick a really, really, bad script that you know will bomb. Hire bad actors/directors/tech people. Do everything you can to make sure your production will fail. Fundraise a lot more money than you need to make the show. Let's say you need 500,000 to make the show, raise 1,000,000 instead. Embezzle the extra. Be creative about it, but take the bulk of the money for yourself. Show bombs, you tell the backers, "sorry, we lost all the money, we'll do better next time." Enjoy your embezzled money knowing that the IRS won't bother looking at your books since the show didn't make any money. The accountant made a quip about being able to clear more money this way than doing an actually successful show.

3:42. Qui-Gon was denied. If you think he was going to take no for an answer, you don’t know the character. Additionally, Obi-Wan was also going to train Anakin “without the permission of the council, if I must”. Funny how Theory leaves this out. Their obsession was no different than Sol’s who was passionate and determined, to a fault.

Sometimes when something is so bad it becomes funny, not this. This is bad and depressing.

Worse than Sol trying to lift the bridge and failing is the fact that the girls could’ve just turned around and walked backward and been totally fine 😂😂 I almost paused the show I was laughing too hard, but I wouldn’t miss anything anyways

The worst thing was Torbin. He didn't do anything, but now he spends 16 years in seclusion and offs himself? Over what? Saying he wanted to go home? Uhh... he said that at the campfire too. There is quite literally no reason for him to do any of that.

6:00 point of correction, the Council said they couldn't come home. I don't remember why.

Before i watched the episode i saw replies on an official post saying "where are the haters now", "this epiosde was amazing, it wraps everything up amazingly". After watching the episode im confident in saying, it was the worst piece of media ive ever seen.

Idc what anyone says. Having Star Wars anything end in modern pop music is just…no. So disgusting.

I think the only thing that would save it, is if it ends with obi-one waking from a bad dream, hot and sweaty. Then says, I knew those death sticks where a mistake, I need to go home and rethink my life.

She set the book on fire and dropped it. How could she know the stones were coated with gasoline?

Sol mistakes Mae for Osha, Aneseya tries to get Mae to safety as her partner prepares to apparently fight Torbin, Sol sees 'Osha' (Mae) begin to vaporize before his eyes apparently caused by Anaseya and tries to put a stop to it for what he perceives as 'protecting Osha', Sol has seen on multiple occasions the Witches using what they know in an offensive way (Anaseya knocking the twins to the ground, Anaseya mindraping Torbin), Sol kills Anaseya. ...about the only real crime here is that Sol can't seem to tell the difference between Osha and Mae. :/

I hated this episode but I also came out of it thinking the Jedi where more a victim then a villain. The scene where the zabrac told mai to get angry has to be the single worst thing I’ve ever seen on screen

I’m sick of seeing that main actress showing up on shows saying everyone is racist and don’t like the show because of diverse casting… not the fact the show insults everything George’s Star Wars..

So why didn't he just lift the kids with the force instead of the bridge? He's a metal bender. Why did she start a fire and spread it all over stone, she's a firebender. Trinity over there being a mind bender and the witch air bender turning to smoke.

You gotta realize that we’re dealing with 2 different universes now. George’s Star Wars and Disney’s Star Wars. George’s ended the day he sold it.

The year is 1999 Leslye Headland has just been stood up by her crush as a young college freshman and drowns her sorrows in a tub of butter-slathered popcorn while she sits through The Phantom Menace in the theater..... alone. As she watches a young Anakin win the Boonta Eve Classic while Obi-Wan and Qui Gon Jin dodge sea creatures and work together to eliminate the insidious Darth Maul the grief-stricken hopeless romantic thinks to herself.... "Screw you Anakin... you think you're so great with that oversized helmet. And as for you Obi-Wanna be cool and Qui going going Gon... I dont need you man-splaining things to me while doing awesome sh1t and taking out a Sith Lord. Maybe if you weren't such a lame movie my crush would have shown up... we were meant to be together dammit! Its all your fault Star Wars.... mark my words... one day I'll have my revenge. I'll show you..... I'll show you all"

don't forget, the girls spent a good 30 seconds just shouting their names at each other wen they are only a number of feet from each other, fantastic dialogue

Anyone: How does one kill a dark obscure smoke cloud? Sol: Stick it with the pointy end.

Can somebody explain to me why their lightsabers hilt look like literal torches, it’s seems so big and large in their hands. It used to look thinner and more elegant in design, being generally just the right fit on the users hand to close around it.

A story based around the jedi fucking up could have been interesting, but not this… Im not opposed to a story about a certain group of Jedi fucking up a mission, having to report that fuck up to the council and then having to deal with the repercussions down the line. But what the hell even is this show? What importance do these girls even have? One is constantly flip flopping and has no real motivation and the other is just a cry baby who failed being a jedi and all of it is culminating into what exactly? We were better off getting a revenge plot by Qmir and who created a dark offshoot of sith like the Brotherhood of Darkness of some shit. That would be way more dope than this travesty

Dex saying, "...how big your pocketbook is, ha ha ha..." I took as reference to how deep your pocket is, i.e., MONEY.

So why did Torben kill himself with the poisn? I don't understand. Was he still feeling home sick after all those years? The show isn't giving us a reasonable explanation for why he accepted death. And is the big whole good for? Is that where all the money went missing?

Mae starts a fire. The Jedi: We will lie and say that Mae started a fire

After episode 7, Acolyte is single handedly the worst piece of written media I have ever seen.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in cringe and were suddenly silenced, i think something terrible has happened

It’s so sad. Lucasfilm blames the fans for a terrible show. I don’t know how many saw the recent Screen Rant article saying SW fans used bots to lower the shows fan rating. With writing this bad who needs bots.

"Imma light it on fire!" *lights it on fire* "WHY IS IT ON FIRE?!" *Flammable object increasing in flames* "WHY IS IT STILL ON FIRE?!" This is an excellent back story

The Farce Is Strong In This One. In a galaxy far far away, a bold story is told, and The Acolytes absurdity unfolds, Flashbacks flicker through a hyperspace's glare, a WTF tale beyond compare. A wookie with metal detector? Thats shit, Scanning lifeless planets for treasures that fit, Yet life blooms there, against all known odds, Gardeners tend flora as if they were gods. Lesbian witches whispering secrets untold, Colleagues turned foes, their stories unfold, An emotional master, his heart in a storm, A homesick padawan, dreams of being home nice and warm, Mass psychic murders, a tragic ballet, In a diverse cosmos where the Force is gay, Like a cheap lightsabers' diminishing glow, This saga spews out, in a vomitous flow. So let's raise our glasses to this trainwreck in space, Where lgbtqia+ and broken lore find a place, To The Acolyte’s absurd design, Where the Force weaves tales, far from sublime.

Sol somehow stabbing Aniseya when shes in a gas like state is still confusing me. Also I like how this episode confirmed that it was all the Witches and Mae's fault when the episode was suppose to show the sins of the Jedi. Koril started to attack which caused Torbin to ignite his lightsaber. Its all their fault and all because Aniseya wanted to insult the Jedi. Also remember TORBIN took his own life because of what happened in this episode yet here he couldn't care less about the witches, he was eager to have them gone. I refuse to believe Master Indara somehow killed all the witches at once, it makes no sense. I want to believe that she just knocked them out which would mean that Mae really did kill all the witches when she caused that fire because this episode has done nothing to answer the questions they were building up. So many people were saying that the Jedi did something so heinous and that Mae wasn't Mae but it really was all Mae. I will say tho in the episode the council actually didnt tell them to come home. Torbin asked if they'll let them go home and Indara responded with no. Anyways all the signs point to Darth Tenebrous making an appearance. If he does show up then that just might be the only real cool thing the show has ever done.

The story they go with is Mae started the fire and the witches died. Episode 1 "there was no sister in her file" HUH?? So the jedi lied with their story to the high council who then also did cover ups on Oshas file. Like wtf are the writers doing.

Jedi's using metal detectors take me out. Is it possible they can use the force to focus on what they are trying to find. Like the fact the force surrounds and binds every object I feel like locating things for Jedi should be easy

i think the worst part of the episode was, that we stil dont know how Mae survived, witch means it is likely, that we will have another flashback to that episode...

That block from Torbin of Kalnacca was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen in all of media, not just Disney Star Wars. It makes literally no sense. You can’t possibly hold a blade steady like that from even a mild force pushing against it, let alone a massive wookie bringing an insanely hard strike down on you. Torbin would have to have the strength of Superman in order to maintain that block. This series is just straight up unwatchable

the witches dying reminded me of when you pull out a USB drive without properly ejecting it lol

I want to point out 2 things you got wrong. There's 3, but I can't recall the third one. I don't feel like watching the whole video again to find it. 1. The council did not say leave the kids alone and come back. They said leave the kids alone and keep doing you job. you can't come back yet. Not sure how you got that mixed up. 2. Mother Koril is an Iridonian Zabrak, not a Dathomirian Zabrak. Dathomir Doesn't have female Zabraks. The Dathomir witches, at least historically, are a cross breed between (Male) Zabraks and human witches. The witches took Zabraks from Iridonia (Iridonians), took them to their home on Dathomir, and made babies. The females became night sisters, and the males became Dathomir Zabraks. Dathomir doesn't nor has it ever had Female Zabraks. I said historically because the Ahsoka show told us the witches came from another galaxy and simply set up on Dathomir, retconning that whole bit of Lore. To be fair it was legends anyway. So now it's just Dathomir Witches mating with male Zabraks and somehow not making cross breeds. IDK. I don't think they thought it out when they wrote that show. It's not like Human witches came from that galaxy, they were already "Dathomir Witches" in terms of the species. They could have simply Made them Human witches like Elsbeth, but they didn't think about it. Wasn't much reason to change that lore. Kinda messes up the Rakatan Lore. The genetically engineered different species to create Zabraks and tweileks from humans. It's the reason why they can all mate. Now there's no Lore reason why The witches can mate with Zabraks. I guess just because. That change only made more issues that it solved. Still enjoyed the show though. As for this show, I genuinely had the exact same thought as you. I just watched episode 7 before watching this video. I was thinking I'd much rather watch the sequels, last Jedi specifically, than this show. I'd openly accept the sequels and Rey as is if this show was tossed in the garbage. The sequels didn't obliterate existing canon. Not to this extent anyway.

It's disturbing the number of people who would prefer to Hate SWT instead of listening to his very legitimate critiques of this awful show.

That pop song at the end had me laughing so bad I fell of my bed💀💀💀

"I just wanted to go home. I thought I was doing the right thing." *downs poison and dies from stupidity*

I've said it before and I'll say it again, score plays such a large role in the telling of Star Wars. Leitmotifs, battle scores, and yes, even silence, play an integral role in my memories of the OT and Prequels. Disney seems to have never understood this, and that joke of a end credit "song" is proof

One mistake in this video: The jedi order does not tell them to come home. They tell them to not interfere with the witches, but to stay posted on the planet.

This is basically the Star Wars version of Rings of Power. Changing characters and lore to pander to "modern audiances"

I really don’t think we’ve seen the last of these witches. Either the Zabrak mother comes back and reveals all the witches are still alive, telling Mae to be their new leader, or, they all do sacrifice themselves to put their force energy into Mae, making her more powerful. Obviously there was some obvious point of having Mae say “Mama told me that all must be sacrificed” blah blah.

GOOOOOOD THEORY GOOOOD, LET THE HATE FLOW THROUGH YOU

Crazy that if the witches had a VPN they would have lived...😂
