"In The Acolyte, an investigation into a shocking crime spree pits a respected Jedi Master (Lee Jung-jae) against a dangerous warrior from his past (Amandla Stenberg). As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems...."

Put a chick in it and make her gay!
- I could be wrong but I can't think of a gay character in Star Wars or Disney history.CyBrainX
- Lando Calrissian is pansexual, lol********
- Lando fuck everybodypango
- Hang on, Han and Chewie were in a r'ship weren't they?fadein11
- Oh sorry, that's bestiality.fadein11
- well in The Rise of Skywalker there was a 2 seconds lesbian kiss. does that count?pango
- Indeed pango, don't bring up the incest though.fadein11
- @Pango it got edited out for a lot of regions too.PhanLo
- i know it got edited out for china. did it get edited out for US?pango
- We don’t *need* a gay character. Plenty of SW characters could be gay but it’s not pivotal to the plot.cannonball1978

- Is everyone forgetting Empire Strikes Back: Incest Makeout?garbage
- @CyBrainX ummm JAR JAR?! Lolfuturefood
- Jar Jar wasn't gay, just a Sith lord, and they're not supposed to bang anybody.garbage
- jar jar is an out law! he will fuck anybody even if he's a sith.pango
- ^flol The one Star Wars series I would actually watch would be centered around Jar Jar.garbage

- I like that they're focusing more on the Jedi recently.CyBrainX

- It's hard to get excited about anything SW-related after the last three movies ruined the entire franchise.MondoMorphic
- its basically become the Matrix nowautoflavour
- Doesn't feel like Star Wars universe at allNBQ00
- looks like 90s TVinteliboy
- I like the sounds.skinny_puppy
- that franchise is dead.ApeRobot

- I remember being scolded because I scorched a light fixture with the candle lighter thing. Bobbi and I had the wicks extended the whole way. (that sounds dirty)misterhow
- Don’t think that’s a mortal sinnb
- So you’re probably still good to go for heavennb

One of the worst scripts so far. Full of holes and wtfs already.

This thread is all you need to know how biased against any Star Wars people will be for the rest of eternity.

It's not the audience, it's the show.
- First ep was really good, great intro. Second ep was good but thin. Third ep I was like "am I watching The Craft in space?" sooooo much talking zzzzzzzprophetone
- they lost me somewhere between the 2nd and 3rd episode, but i had a good sleep.sted
- Audience ratings suggest the first two eps were pretty mediocre.i_monk
- Nah. It's definitely the audience. Look at what people flock to while bashing Star Wars by default.CyBrainX
- Even Forbes admits that list is all over the place.CyBrainX
- Of course the list is all over the place it spans a viewership across 45 years, of course it’s the audience... reacting to a mediocre end-productprophetone
- Ep 3 should have been condensed into a 5 minute flashback surrounded by some great action ’n starwarsery, but it was 5 mins stretched across an entire episodeprophetone
- Audience is def going to react to such shenanigansprophetone
- If they made a 5 minute backstory the vitriol would have been so much worse. You have to admit there's nothing Star Wars can do that won't be hated by fans.CyBrainX
- Star Wars isn't doing this, Disney and its spiteful hires are. As little as I care for Star Wars now, these people were hired to shit on the franchise.i_monk
- Explicitly. Watch interview with them and they go on and on about how problematic Star Wars is and they're here to fix that.i_monk

I think the lightsaber sharted in that key art

We just watched the 3 episode. That one is a little iffy. We still are fans of the show though.
- I liked it a lot but didn't like that they were witches. At least use a word that isn't so tied to silly earth history.CyBrainX
- In A New Hope, Uncle Owen refers to Obi-Wan Kenobi "that wizard".BabySnakes

I thought lesbian space witches would be more captivating.
Ep 3 was awful. I'll still watch it all because I'm an idiot.

There's just some mad choices being made in/with this show.
Space witches can make force babies.
Jedis roaming around spying on and snatching up kids.
Lightsabres getting clutched everywhere.
In a universe full of weird and diverse aliens, it's the lesbian witches who are discriminated against and have to flee to an isolated planet.
Sisters love each other then sister does attempted murder.
Somehow all the Witches die in a matter of moments, like in a room, altogether, done dead.It's all a bit "we do what we want here" — which is fine, but like, if you try and integrate it into a wider mythos and canon you'll have a show with a bit more depth.
I'll still watch episode 4. Shame on me.
- I didn't like that they were witches but didn't mind people with those abilities. We've seen that since day 1. The Jedis taking kids was awful but it drove oneCyBrainX
- of them to not talk for years. The rest of them regret it to. I don't remember too many light sabers so far. I don't think discrimination is so unlikely.CyBrainX
- We didn't see the witches die but there was a fire. No need to criticize that. All in all a good and necessary backstory for the series.CyBrainX
- It's no criticism, just seemed "fast" for want of a better word. The lightsabre thing is Jedi getting touchy with their rods at any sign of antagonismrobthelad
- Like Jedi supposed to be mindful and at peace, but they're all jittery. But I do think at a few witches would've managed to evade a fire. Not just lay down.robthelad
- A fire in a stone temple...i_monk

the number 1 thing we should all be talking about is, Wookies wearing clothing in Acolyte .. so by that deduction Chewbacca was just walking around naked the whole time?
