The Acolyte

I don't know why I watched this. I don't really watch Star Wars stuff anymore. I remember this being like, a discourse thing when it came out, because of course it was. What I just don't understand is, whether you are woke or whatever the fuck not woke is, why the fuck does anyone still care about this shit? Imagine having opinions on Mickey Mouse.
Anyway, this show sucks. It's boring. The episodes are mercifully mostly thirty minutes long, but still kind of too long. People talk forever and ever, and then character development happens in between scenes.
The lightsaber fights were OK though.
At first I thought it was just kind of boring and was ready to give it a gentleman's two stars. Then the last episode happened, which was just about the stupidest thing I've ever seen. I think the show wants me to think the Jedi were the bad guys? Anyway, the show I watched showed a handful of Jedi accidentally bumping into a weirdo cult that were brainwashing children, and when they kind of tried to say "hey maybe don't" the death cult mind-raped one of them and then started a fight and then one of them turned into a smoke monster and accidentally got killed and I'm supposed to believe that this was a war crime or something.
Anyway number three, I meant to stop this post after the first paragraph but I didn't. Kind of like Star Wars.
One Star.
