TPToA Podcast 369 – Star Wars: Acolyte

A deeply divisive story that its very much a tale told in two parts.
Duality is at the heart of this series, duality of intent, duality of character and even duality of opinion. It's both good and bad in equal parts, and it occasionally elevates itself to being great. But then undercust itself with something really janky. also it doesn't look like it's budget at all.

Star Wars: The Acolyte

Somewhere along the line Star Wars became a Small screen universe, where the tales of Jedi and Sith and rebellions and empires got compressed into episodic dramas. The Acolyte continues the trend but now asks some very pointed questions about the Jedi, their unwavering belief in what is “right” and their complete lack of oversight.

It’s mind-bogglingly expensive, its incredibly divisive, and it’s made the anti-woke brigade VERY angry. It must be Star Wars!

Dion, is going deep nerd, Jill is Gonking, and Quinny is the droid you’re looking for in this occasionally heated podcast review.

Synopsis:

An investigation into a shocking crime spree pits a respected Jedi Master (Lee Jung-jae) against a dangerous warrior from his past (Amandla Stenberg). As more clues emerge, they travel down a dark path where sinister forces reveal all is not what it seems….

As always, a very force-ful thank-you to the imperial remnants and New Republic types who join in with the conversation on the Twitch stream, live on each Tuesday night at 7:30pm AEDST. And an especially huge thanks to any of you Force users who are kind enough to support us by Jedi-Mind-Tricking others into putting a tip in our jar via Ko-Fi, or subscribing on twitch… every bit helps us to get that sweet-sweet star wars merch.

If you feel so inclined drop us a sub we really love them, truly we do! The more subby mc-sub-faces we get, the more Emotes You get!

TELL US WHAT EMOTES YOU WANT! we have a “But Why?” so why not a “Hunting of snark for Jill?” or something else?

Every bit of your support helps us to keep
