jarring ep 4 error when she lands the ship to an empty pad. Walks out to a bustling hanger. They couldn't give the VR guys enough time to render stormtroopers at a distance?

I can't wrap my head around how bad the writing of this show was. When they didn't steal shot for shot from better animated shows and videogame cutscenes they couldn't write a character getting from point A to point B convincingly. Did Reeva have loyal stormtroopers waiting with a shuttle and bacta tank?

Parkingtigers posted:It’s so odd how non-memeable the show is. The prequels, poo poo as they are, are full of dialogue that can be mined a line or two at a time. The memes, love them or hate them, are part of the redemption and affection that the films have. This show though, there’s just so little. Stalks up to someone "have you come to destroy me, Obi Wan" memberable lines.

Smythe posted:another PROBLEM i have is when the star destroyer is chasing the rebel ship. i dont buy that a star destroyer couldn't disable or destroy a rusty old frigate like that, and that it could bob and weave for an hour or whatever. another thought is why didnt darth vader, the greatest pilot in the universe, not hop into a tie fighter or whatever they had in stock back then and just do it himself? destroy them "ship to ship" as they (he) say The show stopped trying at that point.

Farm Frenzy posted:Actually watched this and that's not even vaguely what they're saying lol Their whole premise is that Lucas hosed up the prequels so much that they can't view this show with absurdly low expectations. Lucas made plot holes so who cares if Disney makes chasms. Lucas power creeped the force so who cares if Disney goes full anime. gohmak fucked around with this message at 16:20 on Jun 29, 2022 |

Jerusalem posted:I should rewatch it now that Rise of Skywalker has completely hosed up the scale of how bad a Star Wars movie can get, to see if I think better of it now*. My main memory of it is that while there were somethings I quite liked - Glover's Lando in particular, but also the "Han shoots first" callback(forward?) - the movie didn't quite seem sure what it wanted to be itself, and felt very patchwork as a result.

Jerusalem posted:It's a terrible, terrible movie, and if you disagree with me then you have a different subjective opinion to me on a piece of work that is completely open to entirely different but equally valid interpretations I walked out of the theater when it first came out. It's grown on me. My kids love it and want to reinact the "you were my brother Anikin" scene all the time. Like RoTJ it has the most memorable scenes.

TheBuilder posted:Star Trek Next Generation Season 1 cost about 99 million dollars (adjusted) for a 26 episode season (just under 45 minutes an episode). It sucked - but that frequency also let them try more things. If you are a doing a short run tv show in the modern era and only have just over half an hour of content in less than 10 episodes - you can't be anything but perfect. Speaking of which, wouldn't it have made more sense for a High Republic Jedi show to be episodic Starfleet with magical powers? You know with there being no wars in the stars. Complete with Dexter Jettser prospecting new hyperspace lanes. gohmak fucked around with this message at 14:54 on Aug 20, 2024 |

Lister posted:Yes, a show like that would have made much more sense as a mainstream introduction to the high republic era. I said it a few times before in this thread while the show was airing, but the acolyte's story is antithetical to the practical purpose of the high republic as a setting - letting lots of jedi go on adventures to help out around the galaxy and fight bad guys/monsters without any baggage. I don't understand the decision to build up the high republic in that way, only for the highest profile project ever connected to it to be a story that undermines that. Headland hijacked and killed the High Republic by turning The Acolyte into a prequal era retread.

1st AD posted:There's no problem with the setting or the story they chose to tell with The Acolyte. We don't need a Star Trek, but more magic. Execution aside the entire premise is a retread of the prequel themes. It has no point to exist but to step on the feet of other movies like Obi-Wan did.

Stunt Rock posted:The bummer to me is I think Season 2 would have by default been more interesting because it probably would have featured a lot more Qimir. Can't say I'm surprised but I would have liked to see it get another season, I felt like despite the flaws there was a lot of potential there for it to grow into. Why? What was fascinating about Qimir? He was hot?

Lister posted:I was most interested in having a dark side users - sith or not - be a main character. That's what I thought the show was going to be in the first place, a show about a sith acolyte. By the end, it was looking like the 2nd season might actually be what the show seemed to promise. Show should've been young Sheev working his way up Naboo political arena by day, clandestinely conducting sith accolyte assignments by night. gohmak fucked around with this message at 19:16 on Aug 20, 2024 |
