The Acolyte

That would be really dumb writing. Oh wait, we are talking about Disney Star Wars writers here.

I think they should put a Star Trek time travel alternate universe spin on The Acolyte to save us a hope for the future of the franchise. Side stories you can do whatever you want with but this is canon storyline.

The alternative universe spin so often just boils down to a money grabbing attempt to suck more money out from a dying movie franchise.

The TV series “The Man in the High Castle” is one of the few that pulls that off, but that is a new series.

Bad Batch...though final season finished a few months ago, was actually decent.

Some man babies have been review bombing it on Rotten Tomatoes. The reviews have no relation to reality. I've had my frustrations with Star Wars since the ewoks in the third movie and don't get me started on Jar-Jar. I'm not review bombing any of it.

I thought it was OK, entertaining enough. Not enough to care that it was cancelled lol. It might have been a little more interesting if it wasn't related to Star Wars.

Thank GOD Zack Snyder's steaming pile of clearly obvious trope wanabe Star Wars script was rejected. Unfortunately, they made Rebel Moon out of it anyway.

REALLY long TL;DR lol, but what I did read while eating lunch was pretty interesting.

Where Does Star Wars Go From Here?

Lucasfilm's decision not to return to The Acolyte paints a telling picture for the future of Star Wars.

Very interesting. Rotten Tomatoes is implementing a new review classification. On the surface, it is to make it clearer when reviews are worthwhile vs. fluff, especially when there is a massive difference between audience and critics. The side note is that this process should also limit review bombing.

Rotten Tomatoes Just Made User Scores Even More Important

Verified Hot scores aim to vet TV and films under the same scrutiny as critic reviews.
