She has some pretty crazy force visions while in hyperspace that leave her drained and unwell. It’s a rare ability that she never really revealed to others. So, the Jedi/padawan just thinks she get space sick or whatever. You mean Star Shrek? I like pie and Microchip 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godzilla43 Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 (edited) Enjoying this show so far and episode 5 was awesome. I hope when they finally reveal what happened to those witches that it was Yoda who orders them to just execute everyone.

I don’t fully understand the bald look. Her species isn’t new to Star Wars movies or shows - Barriss Ofee and Luminara Unduli were both Mirialan. This is what she looks like in the comics and books in phase 1 and phase 3. Something caused her to shave her head and have her tattoos on top of her head, no idea what, though.

Microchip Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 So it was never meant to be a Star Wars tv show, it was always a propaganda vehicle. Lesley herself confirms. https://thatparkplace.com/leslye-headland-admits-shes-using-star-wars-and-the-acolyte-to-push-discussion-on-gender-norms-its-so-wildly-intentional/ Am I the only one is struggling to remotely see the logic of whats she saying here?

Microchip Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Her hubris and conceited rivals a Galactis storyline. Standing on the shoulders of 4 decades of Lucas's genius level creativity, and cinematic gold, she ran her narcissistic tentacles over his legacy without the slightest consideration. Just staggering. https://thatparkplace.com/the-acolyte-showrunner-leslye-headland-sad-that-her-most-important-piece-of-art-is-being-dismantled-says-its-reductive-to-describe-witches-as-lesbians/ jcjames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodey Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 The season is getting better. I'm enjoying it, even if the acting is a little....ooooof. I like pie and awakeintheashes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Funny how the last few episodes have been enjoyable because there is almost no focus on all this “intentional” krap but no they feel it’s necessary to start explaining, again, what a bunch of freaks they really are. Waiting for Iger et al to tell us AGAIN that it isn’t their intent to do this kind of messaging. jcjames and Microchip 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Igor for all of his leadership worth, is following instructions perfectly. Say one thing in front of the media, and something completely different behind it.

I watch a lot of shows that are very similar to this one, in terms of quality. Very good through 75% of it but if last two episodes don't stick the landing, it ruins the whole series for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewWorldOrder Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Imagine if the "hate watching" of this show was not occurring? Viewership would be down way more. I just watch to see this train wreck finally conclude. Isn't he dreamy? Osha hiding behind the rock made this show even more CW cringe. The show should be called "The Groomer."

drotto Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Reports coming out that viewership has taken the Accolyte out of the top 10 original streaming shows for the week only half way through the season. This show is hardly a fart in the wind as far as ratings go. Not where a show with the Star Wars banner should be. Microchip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be that person. Imagine if they had done this scene with the woman half naked and a guy drooling over her. There would be cries to fire the entire creative staff and cancel the remaining episodes. jcjames and Juno Beach 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well in this case Joker Kylo Ren was fully naked. So imagine that in reverse with Joker Kylo Ren . This show starts off with (all cringe BTW) Hogus Bogus then CW Teen drama to then The Parent Trap to now "How to catch a predator" Seems the former personal assistant to good old Harvey Weinstein is really coming into her own. Cant wait for tonight to see what Harvey I mean Leslye has in store for us! Edited July 9 by NewWorldOrder jcjames 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
