    Looks like the kind of alien that would order soy flavoured Jawa juice

    I doubt many are watching the Acolyte, plenty of stuff I can imagine people disliking

    But, two things…I’m enjoying the fact it’s at a completely different time, literally only one continuity thought

    And the entrance of the Stranger and the subsequent saber fight is pretty sick

    I haven't heard good things. But I'm receptive to trying it

    I watched the prequels twice and Rise of Skywalker once so clearly I'll watch it no matter how low the bar is.

    I'm just waiting for the next season of Andor before I get Disney again.

    I wouldn’t go out of your way, little to do with the “main” thread so if you think the stuff you’ve read makes it one you wouldn’t like I’d just leave it

    @MN5 especially considering fuel and apparently the cost of living crisis is a thing in Star Wars now, how much fuel does it take to go around a planet when you could just shoot through it

    Perhaps they had to conserve power with the laser as well to be fair ? Shooting at the planet might destroy it but leave the moon unscathed. They might have to recharge and shoot again.

    Finished the Acolyte,

    the things i liked out number the things i disliked

    there is some rough acting (most of the jedi).....but Manny Jacinto was a very good bad guy and i liked his motive of just wanting to be what he is, a dark side user....but because the jedi say he cant exist then he has to push back

    there is obviously going to be more, the teaser of Darth Plagueis suggests even if he believes it he is being played

    some cool fights scenes but also slightly convoluted plot i felt

    i was hoping for a completely unconnected starwars story but it clear they just cant step away from connections to the originals

    Actress Carrie Fisher said she thought director George Lucas was "kidding" when he first showed her the gold bikini worn in 1983's Return of the Jedi.

    Iconic piece of SW cinematic history

    I always found the DM thing absolutely ridiculous. Very surprised Lucas signed off on that. You get run through with a lightsaber that has to be the end. It's an absolute pisstake now and anyone who claims otherwise is delusional.

    The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together. Surely it can transform the molecules around a lightsaber?

    Sure ok. Now it miraculously forms a force field around vital organs when stabbed through the guts. Funny Master Qui Gon didn't have this power. Yes it's fantasy, scifi etc etc. But when you are stabbed through the body with a laser sword that melts steel you are fůcked. This is SW not Highlander FFS.

    Don't recall him healing anyone who had been impaled by a lightsaber but ok.
