    Haven't watched it yet but that spoiler review you posted sounded really stupid.

    Took me 3-days to finish this movie. Story isn't that bad. I don't understand the hate about Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Her character was fine. In my opinion they should have excluded the entire WW2 opening and save the CGI for only the impossible. Movie would even better if was from Helena's perspective as her character had the most growth. Indy should have played more a supporting role. It's okay for an elderly action hero to play an actual old man. Would have saved them a ton of money instead CGI his face on a stuntman. Another bad CGI shot was her riding a motorcycle trying to catch that pilot at night in the rain. Since was at night they could filmed it anywhere. Tow her on a real motorcycle next to a partially built plane. Would have looked so much better.

    I know this topic has been in sleep mode for months, but I finally saw this movie. I subscribed to watch The Acolyte might as well see this movie too. Only halfway through it. The CGI is terrible. I understand the need to put a CGI Harrison Ford's face on a stuntman riding a horse. What I don't understand why they need CGI the street behind them when Indy, his god daughter and her sidekick are driving in that buggy. The chase is over. They're just cruising and talking about what they're going to do next. It looks so fake. Why couldn't they just have another car tow their buggy down a real street? Wouldn't it cost less than CGI and look more real? Disney isn't just using CGI for stunts, and the fantastical. They're using it for the most mundane things. No wonder why everything Disney touches looks so bad. I watched The Marvels too. lt all looks like crap.

    That scar on his back looks to me like it might been cause from a burning whip of some kind.

    Those high schoolers are looking a little too old.

    They must have had some good ideas when they were thinking up this show, but it all got lost in the mediocre writing and low production values. Much like all of these shows.

    Crazy theory time. What if there's still another Sith lord behind it all and it's been Jedi Master Sol the whole time? Yes it is a dumb idea but I'm thinking what would be the most dumbest idea that writers who think they are being clever would come up with.

    I think we're going to have at least one or two more episodes set in the past. 3/4 of all characters featured in the original trailer are dead. With 3 episodes to go that's not enough time introduce new supporting characters that's worth caring about.

    Conehead saying the Sith haven't been seen in a thousand years doesn't break canon if: 1. The villain isn't a Sith. Disney and Clone War cartoons had plenty of red-light saber wielding dark side force users. Who they said weren't Sith even though they sure looked like it. 2. The villain is a Sith but everyone who encounter them is killed or swear to keep it a secret.

    Pretty confident that the one their mothers was behind the whole thing. So many clues and Mae's actions wasn't enough to cause all that destruction. Floating Jedi aided her in some way.

    There was some silly stuff but whatever. I'm kind of glad that the show is set 100 years outside of stuff we're most familiar with. It lets creators who've got then own wild and crazy ideas a chance to play around without ruining things. Maybe it ends up being good. If it stinks at least no damage was done.

    Don't you mean geriatric?

    Even with its problems I'm not hating it (yet) like I did with Ahsoka, Boba Fett and Kenobi. Those shows were sequels to better shows made before them and had really good trailers that lied to you. This show's trailer warned everyone to lower their expectations. So far that's working me. The Acolyte looks cheap, has wooden acting and writing is too simplistic but I'm not that mad at it because they didn't over hype the show.
  14. Roy Focker
    Other than the wooden acting, cheap looking production values, and juvenile script I'm okay with this show.

    Ordered Alpine. Now He, Bazooka and Quickkick can have their love triangle.

    Each book the miniseries is based on took place in a new time period, new location and new characters. If a second season took place with the surviving characters from season one, I could see them using the Siege of Osaka.

    What did I just watch? Kid friendly designs bouncing around doing physical comedy. I understand that's for the really young kids but who is the humor for? Adult fans? Nope to them Transformers is serious business. For the little kids parents how have to take them to see this? Cringe dialog like that is going to make their experience better. Doesn't matter what the Transformers say kids will enjoy the bouncing robots. Car Keys the Movie.

    I had this! Got it at my grade school's book fair. Thought it was a knock off. Might have one broken part of it somewhere still.

    This show is really good. Last episode our English man was hardly in it. Majority of it focused on the Japanese cast and they got all the juicy dramatic scenes.

    Only place they could take his story is somewhere really dark. Kill off baby Yoda and goes off of a murderous revenge killing spree. Using all of his suits weapon inventive ways. But I don't think Disney would do that.
  21. Roy Focker
    Guessing the entire movie is just them in nut house the entire time while having delusions.
  22. Roy Focker
    Eel and Snow Serpent looks the same as the earlier release to me.

    Pretty sure there's review-bombing going on. Actual opinion among fans and casual public is likely an even split down the middle. If you seek opinion videos and articles about this show post trailer, you'll see many are focusing on a certain narrative. One that if I mentioned here would be political sounding. Which is something we try to avoid bringing to our forums. There's a large chunk of the population who doesn't care about Star Wars but if you inform them about it and frame your complaint around this touchy topic all these people will mobilize.

    In general, I'm not the keen on Jedi stories. I thought one of the lessons from the original trilogy and the prequels was that the way of the Jedi was wrong. Kenobi and Yoda didn't look back at the past with fondness but with regret. If only we weren't so set in our ways... that sort of thing. I think the cartoon and the fans themselves made the Jedi way as something to be idolized. When I see this trailer, I just see more boring Jedi and their misguided ways. I might have thought Ashoka and Kenobi were pretty lack luster, but I know fans of the cartoon Jedi went going crazy for it. I don't expect greatness for this show. I'm not the intended audience. Many of these Disney shows aren't spinoffs of the movies. They're spinoffs of Filoni's cartoons. If it this show is mediocre that's fine. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised by a thing or two.

    I thought the same damn thing! If you have zero idea what Robotech is, and you saw that cover at the comic bookstore what else can you conclude?
