Hopefully it's removed from Disney+ (and existence) entirely like the horrible Willow show.

 

[Azzurri]

Was this the one with the lesbians?

 

[OverHeat]

Good!

 

[Draugoth]

I hope Disney keeps losing money

 

[mitch1971]

I felt a great disturbance in the algorithm, as if millions of youtube voices suddenly cried out in terror at lost revenue.

The Critical Drinker, Nerdrotic and many more Youtubers will be both elated and devastated. Tearing bad Disney shows apart is their bread and butter, it's what put them on the map. Season 1 of The Acolyte provided them with endless source material for their own shows.

Rings of Power S2 is dead ass out in 9 days.

 

[BlackTron]

Well at least there's a new image for Darth Plagueis trading cards right?

 

[GymWolf]

The power of one season.

 

[Trilobit]

So this is what inner peace feels like. It's like having someone crack your back and months of pain just dissolves.

Just Some Guy is already on it, ripping on Rings of Power.

 

[Billbofet]

I thought this was a massive hit according to all the press releases.......

 

[Ulysses 31]

He doesn't do multi hour breakdowns on each ep like the EFAP crew though.

 

[Fbh]

It wasn't all bad.
It gave us this video which was pretty funny

 

[OmegaSupreme]

And pronouns. And modern music. I guess the modern audience wasn't enough.

 

[dave_d]

True but he is such an extreme fan of JRRT that he tries to use the languages made up for the books. (That's more passion than I've had for any work of fiction)

 

[8bitpill]

I wonder if that actress is going to make another "song" & music video to clap back at her "haters"

If you haven't watched it yet, here you go,

 

[MDSLKTR]

Mana in shambles rn

 

[ShaiKhulud1989]

The power of many (shareholders).

Good riddance.

 

[EverydayBeast]

What canceling Star Wars acolytes means is they can go after different story lines, haters will use this as fuel for their false narratives, acolytes while wasn't great expanded the Star Wars universe, showed the Jedi aren't immune and some people enjoyed the lore, the droids, ships, sith and Jedi powers.

 

[IntentionalPun]

The power of one (season), the power of many (terrible writers)

Dont worry. Amazon will pump out Rings of Power like a champ.

 

[newtypepilot]

that means no more scissoring witches!

 

[Vyse]

Best news I've heard all day!

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

Still laughing at that...tyvm

 

[Null Persp]

but it was popular they said

 

[Valonquar]

 

[Sgt.Asher]

It needed more phallic imagery, I'm sure that would have saved it.

 

[Setzer]

Good riddance!

Lucasfilm learned their lesson: Star Wars still isn't gay enough.

Don't worry... There would be enough material with the nefarious WB.

The Fat Jedi is probably on his third family size bag of Doritos by now, waiting on his Doordash order from White Castle to be delivered.

Why does she sound like she's talking into the wrong end of the microphone?

 

[daffyduck]

 

[LordCBH]

Lmao the tourists who try to claim The Acolyte was anything better than shit are now begging for Kathleen Kennedy to be fired. They're correct to call for that, but for all the wrong reasons.

But it's telling that she's lost the faith of fans and tourists.

 

[phant0m]

Show did have some legit great fight scenes.

and still didn't piss me off as much as the last 2 episodes of Ahsoka

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Star Wars is a dead franchise.

 

[NoLootBoxDev]

 

[Unknown Soldier]

but it was popular they said

This is the same Screen Rant that lowered the score for Black Myth Wukong because of some comments a dev supposedly made lmao

 

[8bitpill]

Why does she sound like she's talking into the wrong end of the microphone?

Most likely some garbage sub genre of music that she felt inspired by that is probably only cool to that Gen Z age group.

She probably thought it was going to come off like this,

 

[clarky]

The whole lot needs nuking from orbit and starting over with a proper episode 7. Set it Hundreds of years after Jedi if you must.

If i could actually remember my childhood im sure its Disney thats fucked it up.

 

[TheInfamousKira]

Things I learned from The Acolyte:

-Amandla is bored; she is not okay with having sex with your talking points.

-doesn'tchangefacialexpressions.ytmnd

- I've now seen Disney-PG softcore. Never thought I'd see Twilight-tumblr quality shipping in the style of Disney like some demented Who's Line Is It Anyway? game.

- Smilo getting carried off by CGI bugs after wiping the Jedi with Prince moves was worth the price of admission alone. Quality fucking television.

- Stone that burns. I eagerly await the comic series or novel that explains in canon that there's a planet that's full of flammable stone but it's exported galaxy wide for construction jobs that are cheap and non-safety compliant.

- Amandla has reproductive organs and a butt, and she's not afraid to thrust them in your face to combat misogyny or something. Doesn't work when climbing fences, though.

- More up and coming actors need to be cast in a main role speaking a language that they can barely verbalize. Mad respect to the dude and his work ethic and talent, but holy shit, also price of admission worthy.

 

[jason10mm]

Lucasfilm has got to stop hiring amature inexperienced showrunners, throwing 200 million at them, and then expect good results. They need to gather a core group of talented producers, writers, and directors (and this should be easy because Star Wars is a dream job for so many) and start bringing quality back. Filoni and especially Faverau aren't present enough to keep the ship headed where it needs to go.
