The Acolyte Episode 7 - WORST EPISODE YET! - Angry Review 

Hope you’re watching the trustworthy ones and not the “anti-wOkE” ones. edit: i’m not saying anybody who hates the show is “anti-wOkE”, i never said that

Brent this u 😂😂😂😂😂

Yeah, it's sad but true.

Same

​@edgarjacksby1402 what's wrong with the anti woke?

💻

23 min episode and 7 mins of credits lol

Felt the same thing after watching Episode VIII in theaters and then seeing his review. Never watched anything SW since.

yet ironically now i completely understand why disney (and others) copyright claim these. its not a (written) review that glosses over the thing and says what it thinks but its a very nitpicky almost second by second study of what happens in the episodes. even if they praised the show i dont think i would have any interest in watching it

Garbage Writing 😶😶😑😐

He made the cardinal sin of being straight and white.

Best explanation I have is that they made it the other way around. They imagined a powerful jedi floating in the air, his face is scared, his eyes closed. The powaful leedah black ninja strong woman comes and uses her mental powers to defeat this seasoned evil white jedi man. Then someone might have asked Leslie, but what did he do? Ehh, he ... Bad man bad... Guilt, PTSD from mmm... Long ago. They did not have the story but a sketch of Torbin floating in the air. And like every terrible unskilled content makers, they could not work it out. They did not do it right from the beginning, and they did not fix it later. Unskilled, untalented, unprofessional team led by Harvey's assistant. The end.

PTSD? Mental anguish?

Do we know if Jediabetus survived?

Rogue One was amazing

​@@BrokeLikeMcHammerand even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then

@@BrokeLikeMcHammer you can like it but Rogue One was not a good movie or a good Star Wars movie

I actually saw another channel going over that scene, and no joke, they describe what they were doing was "impregnating themselves with the force"

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

That's many millions.

@@predat11Many Many Many Millions

Disney just shuffles money between their studios to rip off the actors (if they get a percentage) and pay less in taxes. They do almost all of their productions entirely in house so they are basically paying themselves and can create any budget they want.

They would likely be shit at that job pushing vegan options on customers and arguing with them so they can be "educated."

90%? More like 150% of them. 🤣 DEI truly does stand for Didn't Earn It, because these people are completely incompetent all the way from writing ro lighting, camera work, direction, sfx, it's all fucking garbage that would be acceptable for a student film, not a $180 million dollar production!

That’s insulting to the hard-working fast food workers who could probably write a better script than this show

I wouldn't trust them with my fries

100% of them should, because the minority with actual sense remained silent, to have the LGBT123ABC3PO mafia dump on the franchise.

And it was completely bound to fail. Headlands last project was so bad that even critics ripped it apart. The movie was women centered for women, sounds familiar? And critics had the same complaints SW fans have now. Boring and incompetent characters, hard to follow, no clue what it's trying to say etc. Very strange that the critics defend it now that Disney is involved

Bingo.

@@brotbrotsen1100I’m a woman and I don’t claim them. They are an embarrassment to women everywhere.

I'd even argue they deserve like anti-benefit of the doubt. After the sequel trilogy, I lost all faith in Disney Star Wars

No point telling these clowns that

Disney and all other megacorps deserve to go under, to be quite frank.

exactly, this is not their first show to give any hopes like 'they might be still going with this somewhere'

Problem is AJ is a huge Casual and extremely influenced by his Bias! he cant properly review Movies and Series. His Game reviews are mostly very good and on point but he should stop reviewing movies. i mean he gave shit like Black Widow 8/10...

I hope Darth Helmet shows up in Episode 8 and goes, "FOUND ANYTHING YET?" and the one trooper goes, "WE AIN'T FOUND SH*T"

"I'm surrounded by Assholes!"

I just rewatched Space Balls... you're right.

Hardware Wars feels more like Star Wars!!

cuz space balls believed in the shorts

its been dying since force awakens. Even rogue one / mandalorion is just crappy fan fiction. clone wars show was the last piece of real star wars media. everything else is just playing with corpses

By a tiny knife throw of all things

I've seen some argue that they may not have been dead but unconscious, and that Sol is such a bastard he didn't bother to check them cause he was rushing to the kids. ... Which if true is okay. The problem is the show doesn't convey that, if true, so it comes off stupid af.

​@hardy83 that doesn't even matter. It is 4 dozen force sensitive people vs. 1

Because Maye is stronger than the 4 dozen witches. Haven't you been paying attention?

​@@hardy83okay then why didn't she render May unconscious to defeat her?

@@thedarkemissary She didn't prove that at all in her fight against Indara. Haven't you been paying attention?

Manipulative as hell script. No wonder it was written by a - Lol jk.

I mean, it’s such a normal reaction to someone turning into a smoke monster.. and that’s not even the only shit thing they had Sol do in this ep 😢

Sol says " That Mae you terrible mother Dont you remember her gaint off center tattoo"

Remind anyone else of "hands up dont shoot"

To say this show sucked.......... would put a shame to every porn star that has ever pursed their lips in the complete totality of the history of the adult entertainment industry that's just my opinion

both were thinking ''ok nice im not alone on that boat''

Wise. I did that with the whole new trilogy and everything after. It doesn’t exist to me.

Sorry ma'am, I don't even know I CAN stab on a smoke-form monster🙈😂

Don't reach for the gun.......'reaches for a gun' Why did you shoot me?

They try to make it seem that the Jedi are the bad guys but the witch’s are actually still the bad guys lmao 😂

@@conordyer2307 There are people who sue PDs for that exact situation. One happening in Baltimore right now because the guy reached 6 times for a cut down AR

Apparently she only cast gaseous form, lost the dice roll even with advantage though

Survived order 66 for this, I did?

Lol, I would tune in to watch that episode

@cowetascore8476 no joke, that ending would actually redeem the series and make it all worth it

More likely Vader shows up and force-chokes Sol to death

And forgets about it since he has dementia.

@@jordangerardpotier its the same episode though

Episode 8: :)

These are modern Jedi 😆

Especially when we’re told by Sol that his decision (doesn’t make sense) to join the order was at age 4.

Also he was picking flowers on Planet Camping, Imagine WAY younger padawans who went to war

The explanation of the last bastions of Acolyte fans mean. That it was because of the possession by Aniseya before created a trauma.

He is a white dude, so the scriptwriters want to make him a b

Streaming services are a terrible business model but Disney and the rest of them keep chasing them because of the absolute control they get over everything they make that goes on it

do you also feel like everyone is making a huge effort to ignore that fact? or to not hear when someone says it?

@@kokocaptainqc yes, I don’t understand what we have to do to convince these people it’s about a message not money

Exactly. The message trumps the money.

bruh!

YOOOO CHILLL💀 I hate how sol gave me those exact same vibes

Leslye is trying to explain directly to the audience with an unreliable narrator instead of the characters acting organically

@@budgiecat9039 I'm not sure if this is a defense or not, but if the characters themselves contradict themselves very often, it's terrible writing. The unreliable narrator HAS to do done if there is an actual narrator or if the story is being told by a character. This is not either, it's characters talking to each other and then flip flop constantly.

@@TheSpongyMallard what I mean by unreliable narrator isn't literal like an actual narrator, but how the show is presented with gaps and perspectives purposely to throw us off, then comes back and shows us other perspectives so we go ahhh so that's the whole story. (As in this episode compared to episode 3). Except they failed horribly at doing this here.

@@budgiecat9039 I know what you meant, but I don’t think it works when characters are just talking to each other. I actually think the writers are just bad. I don’t think they’re trying to use any writing techniques at all. Like, toddlers could write a more consistent story.

Its the ole "and then x happened" school of story telling. Connections? Nah. Worldbuilding? Nope. Logical character motivations/arcs/emotions? Think again.

Agreed. This show as a whole is just non functional.

@@lightsydedean Agree, if Star Trek gets a 0 because of non-funtional, this should get it also🤦🏻‍♂️

Probably why they put it as 7. Majority are watching for their own content and the rest are a handful of devotees; if they would’ve put 7 as 4 everyone would’ve dropped the show weeks ago.

Nope. Dramatic hyperbole does not lead to a constructive rating system. The episode functions perfectly fine from beginning to end; it's just bad. 0/10 is just as useless as blind 10/10

@@tdarassp I respect your opinion, but I personally didnt find this episode perfectly functional. Theres numerous things you have to take into account beyond functionality being defined as ‘I hit play, an episode plays’. I liken this episode to a car without wheels. Does it technically work, yes it turns on, the air conditioning works, it might even move forward a little bit, but does it actually do what a car should do, no. This episode was the same. It has sound, it has onscreen characters, it has dialogue, it has visuals, but it has fundamentally broken writing (the metaphorical wheels of a plot). Not only that, but the actual episode, in the context of the series, contributes nothing. It reveals nothing that Mae doesn’t already know. It literally does not serve any function within the greater plot either. If you want to go even deeper, you can bring in budgetary factors as well. At over $20 million an episode, what is displayed in this episode is, at its core, not fit to be published.

Just to make it even on the other side of the fuselage.

🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for making me laugh.

I do not mean to defend them, but the vast majority of Hwood writers except for select few do not get a lot of jobs. I heard it from themselves. They get a few good jobs, but those do not come every month except for DEI lgbt privileged caste. 10k is a good salary. But they have to stretch it over many months.

Also how come he's the only one who knows how to do a Force field? Not even his master Indara can do that. Nor Sol nor Anakin nor Yoda nor Obi Wan. Or Luke Pretty useful ability don't you think? 😂

So if all masters get a seat on the council... Does that mean that for ten years they were holo projecting an image of floating Torbin into meetings just to see if he had something to add?

The writers really believe in the 5000 hours to mastery

lets not even talk about how he went into a coma for 10 years because he wanted to go home and felt guilty lol. wtf?

@@david7522 Not all masters are on the council but everyone on the council is a master. There are not only 12 masters at a time.

@ricardohoang8452 and expect the same youtube critics to do the total opposite. You're the product, you're the gullible. Howard Beale says the truth

They actually paid ppl to write that scene, and all of us can write it better.

It’s terrible if some random person on the internet can write it better.

or show that the force is his weak point? I mean I assume he is if he can't do that, couldn't mind read the evil twin, uses more martial arts than most jedis shown, no resistance to the choke- but at the same time he's got nimble force movement like wtf???

I couldn't tell if he was saying vergence or virgins, like couldn't they get him to dub a few of the lines?

I think he was a big star in South Korea, so I’m sure he’ll do OK.

@@healsallwounds XD SK ain't going nowhere, and he's acting his butt off in this, its a shame this is his script

"Write what you know" - Leslye Headland

I mean that's pretty common in fiction in general people with power are going to be older individuals and protagonists tend to be younger individuals so any story of a hero be seduced by evil individual it's going to be an older being trying to seduce a younger being into joint them it's not really specifically associated with Star Wars

Not Harvey, but his personal assistant :)

Leslie is an unindicted accomplice of Harvey Weinstein. She knows where a lot of skeletons are buried. So this was a payoff for her. She's probably keeping $100M or more of that for her "cut".

nice gig they got there. Create the DEI problem, get payed to solve it, and now they even launder money to strongarm themselves into more yet untouched IPs and companies

Brrr u had to remind me of the existence of madame web! 😬

But madame web is amazing lol. Surprised Joe didn't cope for it.

I'm not a fan of the acolyte but I'm assuming that it meant more than just being home, the fact he even has that kind of attachment shows he's faltering

To an extent he kills himself 😅

Homesick for a planet a 30min ship ride away, The show made time and distance meaningless. He could have travel to temple gotten his replacement and been back before the team had dinner

No, he wanted the hell out of the show.

A Padawan who's home sick a week out on an expedition? Either Jedi training ain't what it used to be or he's got a secret gf back home. 😂

Matrix and Master squid game showed acting. The rest worse with Amanda being horrendous. But it makes sense, she was the one that did not even need casting.

Unironically white guilt.

I guess because their actions indirectly led to the deaths of the convent. Though really, the witches died because of their own stupidity.

Man hadn't taken a dump for ten years, woulda drank anything you handed him.

It depends on who you ask.

He got the nasty scars and his secret gf back on Coruscant dumped him. That's why he was so homesick see. It all makes sense. 😂

Just when kids thought Shao Khan was about to rape Liu Kang....

I mean, we don’t know how strong a Wookiee’s mind is, perhaps they should of use 48 WITCHES TO ATTEMPT A FAMILIAR HUMAN MIND AGAIN AFTER THEYD ALREADY SUCCEEDED ESPECIALLY AFTER WE SEE HIS LIGHTSABER SKILLS IN THE GODDAMN CONFLICT!! Sorry.

You’re also in a guys mind who hits master in no time like lebron but tell no one in your coven

It took one Witch to enter the mind of a weak padawan... yet took nearly the entire coven to possess a Wookie? Make it make sense people

Oh btw most of them die because of Bluetooth disconnection, just saying👋🏻😂

​@@koyapolyeah, especially since they exchanged like 3 sentences so far... Like

Same. So in a way we get a lot out of this show

Way more entertaining than watching something that is the equivalent of an unseasoned, well done $1 steak

Gave up after the 2nd episode. Star Wars was always my favorite. It's gone forever.

They suffer so we don't have to. They are the real heros.

You should watch the show and have your own opinion of it. You may watch it and think it’s crap, but at least you came to that conclusion yourself.

People actually thought she was innocent? I'm pretty sure everyone was suspicious of her day one. Especially since she was able to get away scot free. Now she's making a 180mil Disney Star wars show.

She *absolutely* knew what was happening. Not a chance in hell she didn't.

Everyone around Weinstein knew, just didnt talk about it

Of course she wasnt people just fall upwards in Hollywood

She was literally his PA. It was her job to know and keep it hidden.

Don't stop there, detach from Hollywood, escape the matrix!

This isn't Star Wars. It's just fan fiction that Disney paid 4 billion in 2012 to license Even the credits literally say "based on Star Wars by George Lucas" It's based on. It isn't actually it.

You already know her greasy hands are going to be all over season 2 now that she knows it's her last chance of spreading "the message" to a (potentially) wide audience

It's over. At this point we need a COMPLETELY new Fandom to jump to. Real star wars fans don't want this trash. Time to move onto a new IP no cap

I checked out nearly a decade ago. I was buying the books in the beginning, but those weren't good either. Found other sci fi universes to love.

Leslie was the assistant of a pdf file

He is, that's gonna be the twist in the finale episode. He's also the greatest sith lord that ever lived or something.

​@@custardgannet4836 Hold up! We still need to see what happens with Jedi Martian Manhater who he keeps avoiding now, who seems very sus herself

"Write what you know" ~Harvey Weinstein's former personal assistant

I feel sorry for the cast member who has to play Sol at Galaxy's Edge. Most awkward meet and greet ever.

True. If only he referenced Hancock.

I liked that Alex called him SuperAlien. Because that's what he is. Not a meta-human.

"That's why I have a padawan, and you don't".

Bingo. The Acolyte is in the Matrix CONFIRMED. -Allegedly 😅😅😁😁

She has dirt on a lot of people. Hence the $180mil payoff she got for this show.

Exactly! Leslie belongs behind bars as a co-conspirator and active participant in the cover up on a massive scale! The ONLY reason she's not behind bars is because she's got tits and she's gay, and the DA decided it wasn't worth the political backlash during the height of the MeToo movement. Everyone knows she's guilty!

"write from what you know"

Exactly. She was Weinstein's acolyte.

That’s kinda a wild accusation

😁🤣🤣🤣

Same lol I saw that this episode was terrible so I was excited for this.

Likewise, I was like what is taking so long but now I feel bad because as usual it was the RU-vid overloads fault not my boys.

Where they really shouting “what did you do!” back and forth at each other while Sol was straining with everything he had?

@@invincible1914 yep. They seemed to have tried to film it in a way where the girls couldn't necessarily see sol was the one holding up the platforms, but still the characters are written as incredibly stupid to keep standing on a platform that just fell, over a massive pit. And the terrible acting of them just deadpan shouting "what did you do" while they're in mortal danger just makes it even more awful. You'd think most kids would be too scared to even walk out over that pit nevermind standing there with the whole bridge being blown up.

Lesley literally cited Rian Johnson as inspiration

BAD bad is an understatement

Worse than BAD bad, it's an abomination that didn’t deserve to exist.

Not even Grace Randolph was able to lie about this one. She finally admitted it was bad, lolol

Heres a suggestion: maybe stop watching it then?

@@zhin8294 tell that to the Joes then, lolol

Even I got pissed after a while, he knows how to push buttons and give AJ shit for being forced to watch this trash.

Can imagine that banter happening off-screen too, lol

Haha true but yeah was a good comparison

HAHAHA! Switch the Witch!

"It feels Great"

Ironic considering they think this show is ok. They don’t want to see this being worse than the prequels… That being said their Pilinkett reviews are dishonest arguments of a series that shouldn’t only seen as a space fantasy but ok…

​@@MancoDankoI thought they said it was "mediocre" and not the worst the series was capable of

It is quite easy. I have never seen any of the most current Star Wars movies. I started to watch the prequels and instantly lost interest. Didn't watch anything after those. Didn't watch any of the spin-off series. So in my head, none of this crap exists.

@@V4Now if you’re referring to the acolyte then yes, then they also claim the Obi-Wan show was better at depicting the Jedi than the prequels…

Disney isn't looking for a writer. Disney only wants to put certain scenes and dialogues into the movie. So Disney only hires people to get that done through meetings and brainstorming process.

First thought: have him have a romantic interest back on coruscant that he fears he will lose. Some kind of forbidden love. Bam. Better character motivation to get home. Of course Ms Weinstein could not come up with this since she does not know what love is to begin with.

*Everyone facepalms!* so stupid. It makes no sense just like the whole show...

So the only way to form opinions is self involvement? So you can’t know if k3lling someone is bad or not unless you do it? Watching clips of the show and seeing critics address flaws not enough for your mind to piece it together and form an opinion of your own? Poorthingyouare

I'm with you. Just like I pretend the last few seasons of GOT never happened.

We can all pretend KOTOR is still canon together.

@@Edax_Royeaux Don’t. They will be coming for that next. All they will bring is more ruin.

Thought the same thing lol

And they're talking about how the planet was lifeless but now it's full of plant and animal life, I don't get this, there's obviously ancient ruins strewn about that they're making no comment on. Who built those structures? They look like they would be hundreds or thousands of years old...?

That's the one bit I actually don't mind because I actually agree with him. Jedi are knights for peace and justice, not the shit disney take where they're a religious cult. From his POV he is saving these kids from an abusive environment and from a REAL cult, which is why he's so desperate. In his eyes, he needs to save these kids and give them a better chance to develop their skills without the brainwashing. And no, idc for the shit take that the jedi brainwash. They do, and always have, teach right from wrong and how to seek out and destroy evil, just as they always have done.

Well.she was weinsteins PA

@@Legoboy55able you are right about Jedi not brainwashing people. Jedi are Jedi but not in Disney Star Wars. What people don't like is not the fact that Sol wanted to save these children from these clearly crazy and evil witches but the way he talks and acts with respect to this issue does not bear the characteristics or a Jedi, a composed, logical, patient and resourceful person with integrity. He acts like a predator who wants to groom a child. The idiots who compared him to Qui Gon are effing regarded. He is the worst.

"write from what you know"

XD They really could have set a better age up but i suppose with attachments that gets hard to do

​@@TheFatalcrestI think it stems from that old documentary 7 Up, where psychologists theorizes that children become set in their personalities by age 7. Also in terms of safe harbor laws where a person can abandon a baby to law enforcement or hospitals no questions asked as long as its before 30 days after birth 😂

... it would be cool if Lucas said RECENTLY RIGHT WHEN QUIGONJIN AS KICKED OFF THR COUNCIL the Jedi changed to recruiting children and buying off parents will billions in bribes, and thus the Jedi chose to keep power via evil. It's 100% evil to take 5 year old from parents, to be in dorms and by 10 going on combat missions. Lucas maybe had a genius twist based on this which he dropped when he got distracted by all the hate the Phantom Menace got ...... Lucas was Californian, allowing a military order to take children WOULD seem wrong to him yet he slid that in to Phantom Menace .. weird.... The clones were children too.... Double weird. I know I'm stretching logic, but Lucas maybe was gonna fight against politicizing kids to take sides in mega complex issues like climate change or income inequality, that is issue Lucas in 1990s would see was occuring.... The Republic and Jedi brainwashing children was evil and this alone would justify the Sith takking over and even lecturing saying you child abusing Republic practice evil while denying it and at least the sith don't deny it..... If the sith took over Nazi Germany we all would feel yeah that feels historically right and a just outcome .... ... I know the "bureaucracy and waste" of the Republic was supposedly bad and led to weakness but we never really saw this, no golden statutes and no rich politicians rich from theft, so the Republic falling seemed a shock...... The USA falling into dictatorship we could believe, we each pay like half our money in taxes so clearly it's being stolen or wasted, but we never saw this was also the Republics situation.... Lucas you maniac what were you going for?
