That’s a perfect description 😂 When Leslye Headland gets asked about contradicting the established lore or details that don’t make any sense, you can see in her eyes that she desperately wants to shoot back with “It’s just a dumb space show. Grow up.”
That curly haired whiny dude was a Padawan, 16 years ago. In the episode where he drinks the poison May gives him, the housekeeper Jedi tells them that Master Curly has been meditating for TEN YEARS. That means he went from Padawan to MASTER in less than 6 years. So...he did some Jedi CLEP courses, got his Masters, then suddenly decided he felt guilty about stuff from 6 years prior, and locked himself in a floating meditative state. Neato.
It is a weird mashup of victim culture and lack of personal responsibility. Nothing is your fault, which makes YOU the victim of your own agency, and therefore virtuous.
they wanted to make the jedi bad guys, but instead just make literally everyone a moron. You can't really even say who is the good guy in all this, because none of it happens if a single functional adult had been present. Nobody does anything that makes sense for their characters as established, the motivations are whatever the script needs in the moment and shift on a dime just to cause drama, the 'good guys' are still murdering psychopaths or brainwashed cultists.... everyone is just so unrelentingly dumb at every turn.... That's why this is so awful. You can see right through the writers, you know exactly what they WANT you to think, there is absolutely no subtlety here.... but they still utterly fail to even have it make sense. It's not even a matter of opinion, this is just fundamentally bad writing. This is first draft fan fiction levels of amateur.
In the words of Mark Hamill. "If you're expecting to see the same exact spark or magic moment when you were a kid, then you're setting yourself up for disappointment."
What's crazy is star wars has already done lesbian space witches before. The night sisters were a well developed group of witches with strong ties to the story and plot that not only didn't harm it, but led to great episodes with genuine stakes. Dooku was going to die had they not sent an entire army there and grevious would've failed if he hadn't played dirty in his duel. Strong female characters aren't the issue. It's when being strong and female is their entire character that's the issue.
Recently watched Alita: Battle Angel, and it had a FANTASTIC female protagonist. Feminine but strong, smart but cute. I wonder why only badly-written female characters get defended by "progressives"
" It's when being strong and female is their entire character that's the issue."-- Plenty of movies with strong female leads are loved. Plenty of movies with males leads are bad. It is when you have a female lead that cannot be questioned or considered bad, that it becomes farcical.
The opposite of love is not hate, its apathy. Disney star wars has yet to learn this...the moment those "toxic fans " dissipate is the day that star wars fades forever.
That’s what I’ve learned in therapy: love and hate are powerful because we still care about something or someone. Indifference or apathy means we moved on, neither care to love or hate anymore
In Sol’s defense both Mae and Osha are basically planks of wood, maybe they both read as blank in the force? It fits perfectly with the lack of expression 😂
They are identical in the force, at least I think that's what they meant when they said their 'simeodine's were identical, which even identical twins shouldn't. So even the force won't tell him.
By the women that 'worked' on the show directly or those that work on it indirectly via harvey weinsteins primary enablers basement dungeon? You know, cause she literally had a profession that most assuredly included enabling a known sexual deviant prior to this. This woman is a literal monster and probably offender as well.
The worst part about this show is that... there's nothing about it that makes it feel like Star Wars. You could put this series on Netflix or some other streaming platform, and nothing would change. _This. Isn't. Star Wars._
I’ve said this before, it’s a completely different story set in a universe that mimics Star Wars but that doesn’t abide by Star Wars reality - think of the “mirror universe“ in Star Trek, things look and feel similar but are totally different
Lol.. she didn't ruin it. She just put another nail into the coffin. SW has been ruined by... The last jedi, Rise of Skywalker, Book of Boba Fett, Obiwan, Mandalorian season 3, Ahsoka and now this... SW has been at rock bottom for a while by now. Even a great Andor can't save a franchise which has killed by a thousand cuts...
She didn’t ruin it…Disney did. Kennedy, Johnson, Abrahms, Filoni, and Favreu all F’d it up. Tony Gilroy is the only person doing Star Wars any justice.
Glad to see Weinsteins secretary is writing about what she knows best: someone in a position of the power (the space witch) taking advantage of someone young (that one Jedi) and calling it a good thing
So the black lesbian space witch turned into a smoke monster after acting belligerently, and gets stabbed by the space wizard cop. Then she claims she didndu nuffin. Huh.
last scene of the season finale scared me a lot. Now they will want to change the history of Master Yoda's past. Please, someone do something to stop this disgraceful series from continuing.
“I was going to save her… >wheeze< “ “Oh yeah? Well you should have said so, instead of acting like a dick the whole time, and then turning into a smoke demon. See ya later.”
What I particularly don't understand is WHY Osha was being prepared to go to the Jedi IN THE EVENING and the witches were already preparing to fight the Jedi IN THE EVENING!! Why wasn't anyone waiting for daylight to break? Isn't it dangerous to go about empty woods at night? I thought the witches used the Bunta tree sap to hunt some animals?
I feel bad for the actors of Sol and Qimir, cause they seem like good actors (i havent seen what theyve been in) and Sol literally learned English for this roll and they did him dirty
You all do not understand that Kathleen Kennedy was going for the most plot holes and worst acting in a eight part series to get in the Guinness book of world records while trying to destroy the legacy of Walt Disney.
The Clone Wars already portrayed good examples of corrupted jedis such as General Krell and Barriss Offee, and that’s back when Star Wars acknowledged those types of individuals were the bad guys. Before the Disney purchase and having Dark Jedi and Sith be portrayed as “misunderstood”
I wonder how Master Trinity learned that Mae started the fire that destroyed Mount Vagina. Did she read the script? Also it's really disturbing to see that none of the characters - not even Master Trinity - cared about the young padawan who got mind-r*ped by the witch.
I was very happy to discover that you are still active in RU-vid. The almighty algoritm stopped showing me your videos years ago for some reason, so I had just assumed that you had stopped. Best (re)discovery of the year!
Dude, it’s sucks so bad. I was thinking about how there was no way for the Jedi to know that Mae started the fire. Like she and Osha were the only ones who witnessed it. Mae of course didn’t tell them before the bridge lift incident, and Osha had to be told what happened when she woke up on the ship. So did Squid Games just guess the cause correctly? Most scripts would have revealed that Sol was lying about the cause of the disaster but that’s a few too many dots to connect for Leslie…
Very interesting that headland thinks it’s wrong to protect kids and thinks we should blame the manipulated/brainwashed… 🤔 Who did she used to work for, again?
Diversity is no substitute for good writing and characters. Dozens of shows/movies manage both, and don't even pad themselves on the shoulder for it. It's not rocket science, really.
ROGUE ONE: Remember this quote from the blind Asian man with force ability : “The Force moves darkly near a creature that's about to kill” Guess that was all made up too because this show displays there is no indication at all. All of it is a steaming pile
unrelated but I wish there was a game where you play as that blind man (before and after the blinding event) and the gimmick is that throughout gameplay, you unlock your sensing abilities and see these dark and light clouds, have these controller buzz-ques and see a rough monochrome wireframe of basic surrounding and movement of things that not only create sound, but have a colored force signature of some kind. I just want a star wars game other than LEGO where a force aura can be seen by the player. something that lets you see what a jedi would be seeing all the time. imagine rumble and aura-cues that signalled the direction a surprise attack will be coming from, and the gameplay being like For Honor imagine harder levels containing a miniboss level sith that mastered hiding their intent, and have a stealth advantage against your senses. either that or encountering a chaotic mind who sends so many telegraphed intents to flick something a you that half of em are feins. maybe a brief horror element where something you dont think is capable of harm starts to get that vignetting effect of “their intent to kill” when you look at them.
1) Most people won’t even consider this travesty canon as it breaks so much of the Star Wars lore 2) It’s clearly just attempting to push an agenda, and Headland isn’t even hiding it. She knows nothing about Star Wars, and neither does half the cast (the fact one thought Anakin blew up the Death Star and one of them didn’t recognise Mark Hamill is very worrying) 3) It’s crappily written and produced, and I really can’t tell where the $180 million budget went. A New Hope was shot on $11 million, and you can see every penny on screen 4) It has a general lack of logic. Fire can’t happen in space and you can’t set a stone building on fire. There’s also the fact the show robbed Anakin of his specialty of being born through the force, which feels a bit wrong. So ultimately, I’m glad I never bothered to watch this travesty. I’ll just stick to the 9 main films and the 2 spin-offs.
I don't even know how turning into a giant smoke monster was supposed to, "let Osha go". The f*ck does that even mean? What was your goal with that brilliant move? Cause, ya know, Mommy Maul also turned into a smoke monster. And SHE possessed the Wookie when SHE did it. So, what the f*ck was the other Mommy going to do with her smoke monster powers?
i think disney purposely ruin star wars because the original 6 were too political. they want the fans to suffer and at the same time drop the political nuances.
It doesn’t even feel like it should be a show. I am still questioning what exactly the plot of the series is? Also, one episode left? I don’t feel as though there is no way to wrap this up in one episode? For example… Does Osha turn? Does Qimir die? What about the Jedi and the council? Too many issues that won’t be wrapped up in a 43 minute episode.
Actually, stone buildings can catch fire, or rather, the fittings like curtains and furniture catch fire and spread from one room to another. There are companies that do fire stopping to prevent or slow down the spread of fire. I recommend Red Crow as one of the leading companies in that field.
I am a casual SW fan but I this actress Stenberg has one expression the entire series, I have never seen anything she has done previously but her acting can’t be this bad, right?!?
Only thing I can think of is the no weapon rule was him wanting her to fail on purpose.... so she would bait in more jedi...yeah ok eff it I have no idea.
I subscribed to Disney Plus to watch Timon and Pumbaa, The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, and Pepper Anne since you couldn't get them anywhere for decades. Disney Plus is only worth getting for the archive of Disney television that was kept in the vault for ages. Disney Plus got my money for what was actually valuable, and then I unsubscribed. Pepper Anne is still likable and charming all these years later. When I was a tiny eight year old boy, I thought Pepper Anne was the most likable and attractive girl in any cartoon. 😊Turns out the show still holds up well too! Well worth the nostalgia. :)
Doesn’t matter how bad it is. I guarantee Disney will sign Leslie up for 2-3 more seasons. KK is great at throwing good money after bad. Whether it actually gets made or not is another matter. 🤷♂️
1:15 - Notice that when Indara gets stabbed by the knife that a little trickle of blood comes out instead of blood seeping into the fabric of 3 layers clothing that she's wearing. Is the blood coming out of the knife or her?
To quote a much better show, This is a disaster of Belwederian proportions. It's not like we expected anything decent from Harvey Weinstein's personal assistant, but I doubt any of us could have predicted exactly how horrific the Crapolyte would be.
Again. I said it before and I’ll say it again. I’m completely team Torbin. Torbin wanted none of that BS, he went into a deep meditation to deal with that whole BS and then offed himself because he couldn’t take this BS anymore. So fkn relatable. That’s exactly how I feel after watching this sht show
Worst Star wars ever made. Hell, id go so far to say its one of the worst shows ever made. I rather sit down and watch some low budget thing like Flash Gordon instead, that shit is atleast so cheesy and ugly it becomes fun. This is just a pile of crap
Legit haven’t even seen a Star Wars product since last Jedi, nothing can make me care what this pathetic franchise can throw at me to “disrespect” itself, it’s legit pathetic to see the potential slip away with the hacks that are in charge.
this video and comment section are gross bro yall being way too critical and just calling people names yall don’t even have any good points that aren’t contradictory if yall criticized literally any film this way you can tell its people acting in front of a camera that’s why your supposed to emerge yourself in it not plan on not liking it before you even watch it then just wine and call the characters stupid
