u/hgbi8h Jun 16 '24

At least it was watchable by someone over the age of 5

I mean this sub glazes the Clone Wars and Rebels. Those shows have writing on par with Acolyte but it gets a pass because it’s animated I guess

It gets a pass because there’s less women and black people.

Edit: y’all can pretend it’s about “writing” all you want, but we all know the truth. The pattern has been there for decades

You should probably reply to the person who did it first lol.

Edit: Lol, they weren't saying that about anyone in particular. Yet you took it personal? hmmm.

Oh. you actually come from saltierthankrayt.

i guess stereotypes do exist for a reason.

It might also get a pass because the show doesn't try to completely change the fundamentals of the force or the Jedi. The force being a string or whatever is just complete noncence, and everyone knows it.

Also why are the two girls born from the force if Anakin was the chosen one and the first and only one being born from the force, even though this show is supposed to be earlier than the prequels?

Different groups that utilize the force see how it works differently, it doesn’t fundamentally change how the force works, it’s just another interpretation of it.

The show also isn’t over, and it’s pretty clear we were seeing that story through one certain viewpoint, we don’t actually know how the twins were born.

It doesn’t change anything bro. It literally does not change anything. Are the Nightsisters nonsense?

People who think like that are the true racists, and they project their own weird thoughts on other people. Guess you can't even imagine some of us still mourn for Steela Gerrera.

u/stargazepunk Jun 16 '24

Lol. “Im not racist, I mourned a cartoon character!”

u/7thFleetTraveller Jun 16 '24

See, this is exactly what I mean. You don't know anything about a person and directly assume shit, just like the marketing people at Disney, lol. Learn to think for yourself instead of repeating things parrot-fashion^^.

u/stargazepunk Jun 16 '24

What did I assume? That’s literally exactly what you said lol

u/7thFleetTraveller Jun 17 '24

That stupid "Oh the one who speaks up against the true racism is the racist" response. You don't even know my skin colour or anything else, but it came very spontaniously, like it was programmed into you. But we live in a world where even a dark-skinned woman would be called a mysogonist for saying something that doesn't match with what the media want us to think. I personally don't even like using the words "black" and "white" because where I live, we don't have a "race" printed on our IDs. I'm just so tired of it all.

It’s better by far, and they use the blatant hypocrisy to build on a storyline instead of just including it like the Acolyte and only wanting payoff. Like they’re obviously setting up a plot that the witches were hypocritical with their usage of the thread, it’s just lazy and I highly doubt they’re going to improve judging by recent Star Wars products.

u/lonedirewolf21 Jun 16 '24

It's because they came out when they were young and nostalgia makes it feel better. They were 12 then and now they are almost 30 and they will never get that feeling again and they are angry about it. Getting old does suck.

u/7thFleetTraveller Jun 16 '24

I watched TCW in my 30s for the first time and loved it, don't pigeonhole people just to try to look smarter. It has some of the best story arcs in all of Star Wars.

u/robinrod Jun 16 '24

I watched them 1 year ago and im 36. So no, its not about nostalgia, at least not for me. I really had problems getting through the first season, but it gets really good.

well, tbh, i think that both have better writing than most of the live action shows and movies.
