There are two positive things about the Acolyte. They do have ONE fight scene choreographed of the Sith, and he did excellent. Second, if you’re out of NyQuil PM, this show will do wonders. 1. The main characters Osha and Mae: they’re dreadfully boring, not good actors, visually not eye catching, and have some of the cringiest repeat dialogues I’ve ever scene. Idk if the producer was trying to replicate Anakin or Revans light and dark side struggle/tear between the force, but I feel like they haven’t watched star wars to know how to incorporate this into a storyline. 2. Sexy sith/lazy design: the sith was very obviously Quimir from the start. Reciting a quick 3 words from the sith code in an era where the sith don’t have an academy.. who else would be repeating those words. Quimir looks somewhere between lord mommin and kylo ren, BE ORIGINAL. Motive lacks with this new sith, being free isn’t enough. When sith seek freedom, traditionally they’ve been on the way to godhood. Quimirs goal so far seems to be “ I want to be able to kill at will and have fits of rage”. I don’t think he’d make sith apprentice in the rule of two era. 3. Master sol: we knew you killed those witches by episode 2 and it was anti climactic. We don’t care, no one thinks you’re evil, but no one’s invested in your story either. We just appreciate that you are of two characters in the show that look like a Jedi. 4. Mae and Osha being the same individual is the inverse of a two spirited gendered person. I think a lot of people might have missed the gender trope. When they do want to use gendered language, they make sure the inclusive language is rather forcefully shoved in your throat via conversations you wouldn’t word in real life convo. 5. Anakin is the first force birth. This seems to be playing on an ideology wanting to put men, but particularly anyone straight, white, or man, into a category of either incompetence, insignificance, or destructiveness. Mae and Osha break lore. 6. Get your timelines right… Ki adi mundi shouldn’t be born… where is Tenebrous and Plaguies ( this is their time period). Did the producers watch phantom menace where the “ sith had been extinct for a millennia “? In conclusion, this is not a mystery show. It alludes imagination and creativity. I’m pretty sure the cast and writing team haven’t watched Star Wars in its entirety, or if they did, were not rather interested in it that much to understand its lore. Writing lazy, casting lazy, too much feminism and now gendered ideology. Not mind the sexualization of characters. Just give me a good story. Also I’m a black Armenian whose parents legally migrated to USA decades ago should anyone want to call me a racist bigot.
