So, I think it’s been long enough now that I can talk about it, I don’t think this is going to go the way you expect. But it was a letdown, there was so much more they could’ve done with it. Also, with the quality of our favourite Star Wars films being so high. It was always going to be hard to follow it with amazing TV shows. It’s not like they’ve all been bad. Boba Fett and now the Acolyte, I’d say that’s a good success. Either way, I did actually enjoy The Acolyte.
Let’s start off with the worst thing about the entire show. The acting. Most of which was actually pretty good in my opinion. But when some parts of it is just so bad it almost ruins it for rest of the episode. A bit like in Boba Fett when the power rangers started to race, i know you know what i mean. I just felt like the acting had no backbone, they filmed it, watched it and thought. Yeah, that’s perfect, not a chance. A little disappointing but something i can live with.
An ancient Jedi prophecy, “A Chosen One shall come, born of no father, and through him will ultimate balance in the Force be restored.” Here are some twins that two witches made from the force. Oh, btw, they’re very force sensitive. Like, ok. Lets just disregard the entire Skywalker story. I believe I read something that said they were going to move away from the Skywalker story, soooo they just copy a huge part of the plot?
Speaking of moving away from the Skywalkers. Here is a teaser of Darth Plagueis. We’ll show the audience Palpatine’s master, the guy whose story made Anakin sway to the dark side. Should he even be alive at this point?? Now, I am 100% up for a series with Plagueis and Palpatine and how that all happened. Just saying don’t say you’re going to try something new and then show us a huge tease relating to our favourite character. The show was entertaining before we were teased.
I think a lot of the characters were very likeable in the series. Master Sol being a big one, reminds you of a certain Qui-Gon. The loving father Jedi that will do anything for the future of the force. How a Jedi bloody should be and what we’ve not seen for many years. The only other character that matters is this guy.
If a picture could talk ey. What a guy
I feel like I’ve been negative…but I’d say it’s more, constructive feedback. The show itself is good, I enjoyed watching it with a few frowns at the imaginary camera in my living room but I do that with most things. I really do hope it gets renewed for season 2. Although it looks extremely unlikely at the moment. If you haven’t already, sign the petition. Petition · Renew the Acolyte – United States · Change.org Hopefully we’ll see it on screens again soon!
