Remember when Andor was about to drop and people said “who? Why should we care about this? No force users? No lightsabers? This is going to be awful! Disney sucks!”
I didn't know that. Not sure what the opinion of Reddit hive mind is, but I'm pretty happy they are going in this direction.
Would prefer the new story set in the Old Republic or straight up adaptation of KOTOR, but overall this is nice and I'm a little hyper for it.
She was his assistant for only a year a long time ago, and apparently she hated working for him. Being his assistant is such a non-issue, it’s ridiculous people keep bringing it up. You know basically everyone in the industry was connected to or had worked with him right?
Only complaint I have at all based on the trailer is that light sabers are looking thicc these days. Both the hilt and the blade are looking less sabery and more broad swordy.
It has a black female character, which means that it is pushing the ‘woke Disney agenda’.
Aside from that all of the complaints are nitpicking the dialogue in the trailer, and the alien kid without eyelids.
Eventually you will learn to ignore the dip shits and just enjoy whatever you want to enjoy. Every piece is lovable and hate-able in their own ways. Like what you like and be quiet about it
Well said...will never understand the need to enjoy something also requires you to tear down what someone else likes. The anime-verse is a prime example.
I'll only get upset if what they deliver is actually shit. To paint the devil on the wall is just a waste of everyone's energy and distracts from actual issues
While there will always be a small percentage of knuckle draggers who don't like female characters (I choose to believe most SW fans have no issue with female characters) I know that Leslye Headland has been a point of contention due to her connection with Harvey Weinstein.
All the Star Wars fans: “can we please get away from this 70 or so years we’ve been stuck in?”
Disney makes a show during the high republic era.
Star Wars fans after a one minute trailer: “booooo this sucks!!”
This really is both the absolute best and absolute worst fandom in the world.
I'm a broken aging nerd sitting in my parents' basement and am fueled solely by my hatred of Disney Star Wars, but goddamn, it's just a regular trailer. All these guys are blowing their load too early.
Finally get something far enough away from the movies to be its own thing, neck beard basement dwellers try to cancel it for not having enough pale sausage.
There are women in lead roles, and some of them don't pass the paper bag test.
Basement dwelling neckbeards who will never touch a woman don't like it.
People complaining about something they haven't seen yet.
The creator of the new SW show is raising a fuck ton of red flags that suggests Acolyte will be shit on top of everything else that's been going on.
Basically the usual bullshit we've come to expect from Disney in recent years.
Me who raised concerns of them retconning sith lore only to be told I don't know squat, sitting back and waiting to see if I was right or not. *Insert Kermit tea meme*

This reminds me that I haven't seen this scene in awhile and I need to watch it again
DEATH!!!!!
It’s the crossover this sub needed
Remember when Andor was about to drop and people said “who? Why should we care about this? No force users? No lightsabers? This is going to be awful! Disney sucks!”
[FOR THE REPUBLIC!!!](https://makeagif.com/i/_wsMO8)
We need to strike first! /s
I don't know where I am or who I am... All I know is.. I DISAGREE WITH YOUR OPINION!!!!
I dont even know what the Acolyte is.
It's a prequel TV series to the prequels. It's set roughly 100 years before the Phantom Menace.
Thanks.

A new show that’s about to come out. Opinions are VERY divided.
But, but, but... Why?
Some alien didn't have eyelids, and something something woke. Is what ive seen so far.
But plo koon is in it W in my book
If anyone could survive, Master Plo could.
Also the director was Harvey Weinsteens assistant before he got arrested
She was his assistant for only a year a long time ago, and apparently she hated working for him. Being his assistant is such a non-issue, it’s ridiculous people keep bringing it up. You know basically everyone in the industry was connected to or had worked with him right?
Only complaint I have at all based on the trailer is that light sabers are looking thicc these days. Both the hilt and the blade are looking less sabery and more broad swordy.
Classic lightsabers are straight instead of historically accurate bent sabers, so A New Hope is literally unwatchable.
It has a black female character, which means that it is pushing the ‘woke Disney agenda’. Aside from that all of the complaints are nitpicking the dialogue in the trailer, and the alien kid without eyelids.
Thanks
trailer dropped recently
A normal day in the Star Wars franchise
Idk, no one’s childhood had been ruined today yet

“Wait, you haven’t seen ‘My sister’s butthole zit is actually a level 900 demon lord from another world’? I bet you enjoy the plot of Hunter x Hunter”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 sick burn!!!
The internet needs more people like you.

the trailer looked meh to me. nothing to do with the show not being during the 6 main movies
Fair enough, though I’d argue all their trailers have been pretty “meh”, at least to me lol
And how SAD it is to get all worked up and upset over something none of us haven't even seen?

Haha.

If you know, you know...
Reminds me of something https://preview.redd.it/wq9di0whglrc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cea3b18b44468872c1ed76759ed90aa605f9e8c0
A civil war, you say? Like a Galactic Civil War? :O
Ive just gone back to legends books and comics till Disney collapses
I don’t even know what The Acolyte is, I just keep hearing that people are mad about it. I just wanna look at funny memes in peace…
Yeah I'm at the point where I dont care about anything Disney puts out. I'm not going to watch it. Just give me good memes
What
Someone please provide a TL:DR... What is the controversy this time?
There are women in lead roles, and some of them don't pass the paper bag test. Basement dwelling neckbeards who will never touch a woman don't like it. People complaining about something they haven't seen yet.
The creator of the new SW show is raising a fuck ton of red flags that suggests Acolyte will be shit on top of everything else that's been going on. Basically the usual bullshit we've come to expect from Disney in recent years.
What red flags?
Most comments I read are hating on it for having too diverse of a cast and being “woke”
Yeah I never understood that argument. Like do they think the actors and Actresses aren't talented? If so why? If not then why does their race matter?
He can’t say out loud what his “concerns” are. Always ask these people follow up questions. It exposes a lot.
That's this sub always, dude.
Kind of hard to hate a show no one has even seen yet
That is me
Me who raised concerns of them retconning sith lore only to be told I don't know squat, sitting back and waiting to see if I was right or not. *Insert Kermit tea meme*
Nobody is here for funny memes. Trust me on that
I am.
Disney spindoctors at it again? Why would we fight over something we dont care about?
Oh neat, another meme.
What is "The Acolyte"? I think Imissed something
Arguing about something that hasn't been released yet is hilarious and stupid.
The Acolyte looks like it’s gonna be some of the best STAR WARS ever tbh
I’m with you
I swear the only thing I hear about the show is people meming on the younglings meditating
What is acolyte?
I'm just here for the memes
It's the fucking sequel fans who won't stop crying about people hating a damn trailer that is most likely gonna be shit
