The Acolyte Initial Impressions

I am way behind the curve regarding the new show, I have been traveling so much it hasn’t left me much time for extra tasks. The latest Star Wars series, The Acolyte, premiered last week with the first two episodes. It’s going to be interesting for me to watch this series; I do not know that much about this era of Star Wars. I own the books, I just haven’t started reading them, yet. So let’s get into my initial impressions of The Acolyte.

I’ll start out by saying that I am really enjoying the series, so far. I will break this down into various discussion points. A quick warning, before I continue, this post will contain spoilers, so if you’re waiting until the series has been fully released then don’t keep reading but do come back.

Happy Star Wars Day (2024)

May the Fourth Be With You! On this Star Wars Day Lucasfilm has given us two great treats. The first is Tales of the Empire, essentially, season two of Tales of the Jedi. I haven’t had the opportunity to watch these yet, but they are on the list for this weekend.

The second big treat is a new, official trailer for The Acolyate. Check it out!!

The masked character at the end gives me Knights of Ren vibes. Obviously, it isn’t since the Knights of Ren were established after A New Hope (3 ABY) and this series is approximately 125 BBY.

This trailer definitely has me more intrigued than the teaser trailer.

How are you celebrating May the 4th?

The Bad Batch Season Three Premiere

I’m not going to do a write-up for all The Bad Batch episodes as I’ve done for the live-action shows. However, I do want to drop some theories that I’ve come up with after watching the Bad Batch season three premiere. There shouldn’t be any major spoilers in the following supposition but I’m sure having seen all three episodes helps follow along.

This is your last “possible” spoiler warning in 3 .. 2 .. 1 …

HMDYK About Carl Weathers

Carl Weathers as Greef Karga

Sadly, within the past week, we lost the irreplaceable and amazing Carl Weathers. I’ve been trying to do more posts from this series and I will try to do more in the future. In light of Carl Weather’s passing and given that it’s Black History Month, I think he is a good place to start in 2024. How much do you know about Carl Weathers?

He was born in New Orleans in 1948. Little is known about his parents; his father was a hard-working day laborer; even less is known about his mother. He was a very athletic person, playing numerous sports in high school.

Star Wars: Bad Batch Final Season Trailer

We have a trailer for the first bit of 2024 Star Wars content. The trailer for the third, and final, season of The Bad Batch. First, watch the trailer, and then I will quickly touch on what has some folks in a tizzy (beware, there will be spoilers).
