Star Wars: The Acolyte (it’s dead Jim)

[monkentage]

hahaha. Are people actually paying subscriptions to Disney?

 

[IvanDobskey]

Oh this one looks to be the worst thing crapped out by Disney yet

It has some pretty stiff competition too

 

[doodah]

Normally a sucker for trailers, looks half decent. Who are they going to try and shoehorn in for this one using de-aging tech?

 

[PlacidCasual]

I'll re-sub when Andor comes out and pick this up then, hard to tell how good it will be. The Disney Star Wars shows have generally looked good but the huge variation in storytelling quality has been the weakness.

 

[IvanDobskey]

The bar for star wars content these days is lower than a snakes belly in a wheel rut at the bottom of the Mariana trench

 

[MissChief]

Looks and feels Meh. No doubt I'll still watch the first two episodes and make my own mind up.

 

[Efour]

Looks .... Meh
Hopefully it won't be.
Where's Andor?

Acoshyte

 

[Shamikebab]

Had no idea Carrie Anne Moss was in this!

Yoda

I have my fingers crossed for this one.

No one recognise the bloke from Squid game. Lee Jung-jae. Surprised he in a SW at all.

 

[kakarott]

Looks ok. Meant to be set 100 years before phantom menace.

 

[IvanDobskey]

It just looks so cheesy. Lots of silly spinning fighting moves, too many lightsabres all over the place and outfits that look like bad cosplay. Terrible.

Thats generally the whole Disney SW formula though isn't it? Chuck some lightsabres and a Millennium Falcon in and that will shut the geeks up.

Yoda

Due to the timeline of the show I was expecting this to be cameo free, l. I didn't think of Yoda! Normally I'm all over the cameos but for this series I'm not expecting any. If we see Yoda it will be a nice bonus

Yet Andor had none of these things and is seen as one of the best series in the D+ era?

He'll be a cameo like how Luke was on the mandolorian

Exactly, forget the "crowd pleasers" as D+ see it and give us a bit of story. I'm not sure if we are the minority though, I heard that some people actually cheered when the Falcon showed up in the last Jedi....I mean I love the ship but I have never been compelled to cheer it on.

Lore in the prequals: "The sith have been extinct for a millennia"
Disney with their new show set 100 years before the prequals: let's just chuck a load of sith in there for the fun if it anyway.

 

[Shamikebab]

Well that's what the Jedi believed, it wasn't true though was it?
