  • BONUS! The Acolyte Ep 4: Day
    Jun 20 2024

    Sorry this one is a day late, but we got it out as fast as we could considering the circumstances.

    We're half way through THE ACOLYTE and the mystery continues to build, but the action hasn't been there to pay it off. Our Jedi heroes (?) travel to the planet of Khofar to save the Wookie Jedi Kelnacca from Mae's wrath but will they be too late? PLUS we finally get a good look at Mae's mysterious Master. Is he a Sith? Is he Qimir? Is he a he? All this and MORE!

  • BONUS! The Acolyte Ep 3: Destiny
    Jun 19 2024

    This episode should be covering both episodes 3 and 4 of THE ACOLYTE, but we had a delay due to personal reasons and episode 4 will be later. Hopefully only one day. Thank you for understanding.

    This time we dive into the third episode of THE ACOLYTE titled DESTINY. A Rashomon-esque flashback to the childhood of Mae and Osha told from one point of view, we start to see what happened 16 years ago on Brandock to lead us to where we are today.

  • Ep 02.2: Attack of the Clones (Part 2 of 2)
    Jun 12 2024

    Part 2 of our discussion on Episode II of the prequel trilogy, we dive into this cringy snoozefest, while still trying to find redeeming qualities in what both Jack and Derrick consider one of the weakest entries in the Saga. The second Star Wars prequel film, directed by George Lucas and starring Ewan McGregor, Hayden Christiansen, Natalie Portman, Samuel L. Jackson and a bunch of computer alien folks. Set ten years after the events of "The Phantom Menace," the Republic continues to be mired in strife and chaos. A separatist movement encompassing hundreds of planets and powerful corporate alliances poses new threats to the galaxy that even the Jedi cannot stem. These moves, long planned by an as yet unrevealed and powerful force, lead to the beginning of the Clone Wars -- and the beginning of the end of the Republic.
