re: 'The Acolyte' Megathread: The Grand Finale is now streaming

Sol came off like he had a creepy pedo obsession with Osha lol.

Anyone care to explain to me why the little smelling animal decided he'd sabotage Sol's ship so Ohsa/Mae could get away, and then Sol doesn't care about it all and just leaves him on his ship after they land? Then they use him again later to find Osha/Mae. The writing.....i swear.

---

That confused me as well.

I'll give my breakdown of this episode:

- Have no idea what was going on while Osha/Mae had the helmet on. Why was Qimir's eye's black like he was under a trance like the idiot jedi that suicided himself was? I questioned Osha/Mae being able to see the future at first, but then just figured whatever, and she did say something about the future not being set, so it made sense to me. From what I remember about force visions is that you don't necessarily see what is going to happen fully, since the future isn't set, and that the emotions of the people in the vision can cloud what's actually happening, which is why force visions were used as warnings, not what was to become exactly.

- I guess Darth Plegeuis learned everything from the witch doctors Not to mention he might not even be born yet, or would be just a child if he was, but whatever, not bothered by it as i'm sure they can just say well he died at the ripe old age of 130 or something, which wouldn't be out of the ordinary.


- The entire sequence with Sol and captured Osha/Mae was beyond silly. Her escaping with the little droid, running in Sol's ship and locking him out of it somehow, the chase in the stupid asteroid field that they could have easily just flown above or below, the gopher saboting Sol, then Sol looking for Mae and hollering "Mae" like she's going to answer him. All of it was terrible story telling.

- Ohsa saying she needed to power the elevator to make it work as the only way to get in, even though 3 people just got in without it. Then she magically finds power for the control box, even though we last saw the power generator for this mountain retreat blow up over a decade ago b/c fire travels down electrical lines and blows everything up along the way.

- The fight scene between Qimir and Sol was really awesome, except for that stupid slow-mo scene. I also didn't understand what was happening when Sol's lightsaber was behind Qimir's, and either one of them could have just moved it forward to kill the other. I guess they were both using the force to hold the other ones saber. Seemed silly, but the fight scene for the most part was really good.

- The fight scene for Osha/Mae on the other hand was beyond stupid.

- Hilarious that Qimir can fight Sol and not win at all, yet Osha/Mae can just take his lightsaber away from him easily.

- Sol feeling bad about lying about killing Osha's mother makes complete sense. Sol feeling bad about killing a witch demon who's turning into dust in front of him after he just witnessed her possess his fellow jedi, is beyond stupid. He had every right to do what he did in killing her. Sol letting Osha/Mae kill him was just as silly as the other idiot jedi that killed himself.

- Osha/Mae bleeding the lightsaber to red, and somehow fixing it to even work, dumb.

- Hiding under the yellow tree "if i can find you, they can". Yeah no shite they can, but they have to use some shite head little gopher who's apparently on their side again. How'd you find them Qimir? the force? like a normal force user would?

- Qimir wiping Osha/Mae memory. Man wouldn't that be convenient to do to your opponent when lightsaber fighting? Why the hell didn't all 3 of them just escape together?

- dumb green jedi lying about what happened, and everyone believing it.
"what is it you people say.......may the force be with you" frick off dumbasses.



All that being said, I would very much like to see more about the Sith and their rise to power in the shadows. I could care less about Ohsa/Mae, and i still dont really know or care which one is doing what.

that chick is objectively horrible as an actress. Nepotism at its finest

It looked like he was trying to stop Sol from shooting down Mae's ship. Who know why? Maybe Bazil is a sith lord who wants Sol to kill her without a weapon.

Because he is working for the jedi, not for Sol (the rogue jedi)

Sol had Mae in a target lock so Bazil fricked up his ship so he couldn't shoot her down (but it did look like it was just a tractor beam)

Bazil also sabotaged Sol earlier when Sol turned off the transponder and Bazil turned it back on.

He seems to be close with Venestras right hand man

I just finished it.



The entire thing was dumb as shite.

Nothing anyone does makes any sense at all.

And the fight between Mae and Osha may have been the worst choreography since everyone did "the Skarn"

Jesus frick. I feel like I just overcame something.
