The Acolyte. All my friends said it was such utter shit that I didn't even bother to give it a chance.

Your friends are morons. There are three episodes out and they're all pretty good so far but they story will have to pay off. It's not even possible to know if it's shit yet because the it's just getting started lol. Imagine going to see a movie, leaving after 30 minutes and then telling everyone how bad of a movie it was. You didn't see the movie idiot, why are you commenting on its quality?

Hmmmm.... if a movie starts with stupid plot points in the first few minutes, and not in an ironic/satirical way (e.g. "I'm alone in a park - what's that noise in the dark? Let's investigate!" or "Everyone is carrying a gun. I'll fight them with my katana sword!") then I kind of know what I'm getting myself into for the rest of the movie.

Same deal.

IMDB 3.5

Hmm. So clearly most think the episodes blew chunks...

If the first 30 minutes are total garbage then yeah it doesn't seem great for the rest of the movie

It’s not great, but there are some who have enjoyed it. If it were “Legends” content I think it would go over better.

Your friends have good taste.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 2 points 4 months ago

Hah, I dunno about good taste but it's very similar to mine so I value their opinion on this stuff

All Star Wars is utter shit.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

I like some of the stuff. Recently not so much, even though there's good ones even there
