I miss The Acolyte

Please give me the chaotic daily life of Osha, Mae, and Qimir again

[notyourmoon4528]

Qimir : Dude, you can leave the helmet... They all saw your face already.

The stranger: this face is now Osha only certified

Qimir:... Are you still angry she didn't agree to take a bath with you like I said she would?

The stranger: 🥺 Osha only cerified

🫡I had to I'm sorry

Qimir wearing his helmet around everyone but Osha this episode truly was hilarious to me. Like. Babe. Dude. Sol saw it. Mae saw it.

But no, he really said pretty face full of love and yearning is only reserved for wifey Osha 😤. Damn, he's really down bad isn't it

THE ACOLYTE | 1X08: EPISODE 8

We make a great team.

[fredmundo]

i could make 10 versions of this meme about this show specifically

[msanonships]

Obviously, the end, that last shot, was very inspired by the end of Fight Club just standing there together, ready to watch the world burn. - Leslye Headland, showrunner of The Acolyte

I am protesting

I reject this

I am vetoing this

I am in complete denial

Imma go cry now

Disney's decision to cancel The Acolyte after just one season is utterly baffling. Imagine creating a show set in the High Republic era, an unexplored period in star wars lore, bringing fresh perspectives and focusing on new, intriguing characters and themes—only to cancel it. It's even more frustrating when you consider that the show faced backlash from the beginning mainly from alt-right and racist fans who couldn't handle a series that dared to be diverse and multilayered. By caving to the pressure of those who oppose diversity, Disney is essentially giving a big FUCK YOU to the rest of the fans who were excited for something new and meaningful in the SW universe.

The Acolyte, while imperfect, is a solid setup for what could have been much more. It had so much potential to expand the star wars franchise in new and exciting directions. but of course it wasn't given the chance to grow its audience because some good for nothing incels felt threatened by the inclusion of characters who don't fit the traditional white male dominated narrative that Disney has been feeding us for years.

Fine Disney. Stick with your incels and racist fans. But eventually your nostalgia driven empty projects will wear thin and no amount of CGI young Luke Skywalker or green puppets will be able to save your ass. You fucking cowards.

i need people to recognise that while osha was/is emotionally repressed, that doesn't mean she's innately passive in her personality?? passivity is forced upon her by other characters (primarily sol and the jedi) but since she was a kid she expressed a desire for action and adventure - she was the one sneaking out of the fortress to the bunta tree, desiring her own life outside of the coven and her relationship with mae, drawn to the jedi and their lightsabers, and even when she leaves the jedi order, she doesn't exactly settle down somewhere quiet but goes to the other end of the galaxy and takes up a dangerous mechanic job that's only legal for droids to do while hopping from ship to ship and getting tattoos on drunk nights out with her crew? even in episode five with yord trying to haul her back to the ship, she doesn't exactly go completely willing (sol has to force push her into yord!) and is then the one that convinces yord to go back (💀), and she also immediately latches onto the idea of rejoining the jedi when she thinks sol is offering that at the beginning of episode four, and once she does know the truth, she instinctively force choked sol and bled his lightsaber (even anakin needed more convincing/encouragement to go dark side than she did)

mae comes across are more active/aggressive because she's more emotionally open/driven and has the truth that osha does not (that sol killed their mother) so is therefore incredibly motivated by that truth and desire for revenge/justice - but she's also the one that was comfortable and content with her life in the coven, that seemed to only need osha in her life, that didn't like osha sneaking out of the fortress, that seemed to flourish under the coven's teachings whereas osha chafed against it, doesn't actually seem to like conflict all that much considering how quickly she's willing to give herself up to the jedi once she knows osha is alive and then when she seems content for sol's punishment to be facing the high council/the republic, she seems surprised when she succeeds in killing indara and then doesn't kill the shopkeep alien even though that'd likely (and does) make things harder for her, offers torbin the option of going to the council or taking the poison, and doesn't even kill kelnecca or sol, and generally is clearly not all that committed to the dark side/sith stuff qimir's trying to teach her and spends episode five running from him/pleading for her life over trying to fight him (in comparison osha manages to (temporarily) defeat him by siccing giant bat moths on him)

they're both more complicated than they might appear on the surface!!

Some action sequences from ep 8 since this is as close as we have right now to seeing Oshamir fighting together

[forlouren]

I find it incredibly funny how Leslye will state something concerning Osha and Qimir so matter-of-factly, without any leg room for much interpretation and people will still go "no, it's actually y and z", as if they somehow understand the text greater than the writer herself.

[notyourmoon4528]

Mae: Master can you please just eat?... You're scaring me.

The stranger: your next training session will be sustaining yourself with just the force.

The stranger magically disappears and qimir struts into the cave with his magic bag: OOO look soup, I love me some soup

Mae finishing her soup like her life depends on it: that is the soup I made for Master, you wouldn't want me to tell him you're going to eat it hmmm?

Qimir: pretty sure he just told you that you are supposed to live off the force and nothing else? What if I told him you were eating hmm?

Mae storming off angrily: tattle tale

Qimir: Qimir 500, Mae 0

The fact that Mae’s stuff was in Qimir’s little cave house implies that she was living there too and now I need to know exactly how awkward it was hanging out there together when he would never take his helmet off in front of her

[notyourmoon4528]

Qimir watching from the background in episode 5 when sol has his lightsaber at the Strangers throat: Ok Osha is watching say that cool line we spent practicing in the mirror last night 👍

The stranger : Osssshhhhhha

Qimir: that is in no way " Cutting me down won't save you from the guilt that's calling you towards the dark."🤦

The stranger: but I saw Osha 👉👈

[dont-let-me-eat-pears]

gonna treat myself to a rewatch of 1x05, i say as if i don't already do this weekly. qimir has the most mesmerizing combat style i've seen in star wars, even when he's mercilessly mowing down jedi, including ones i like, in the dark. the hints of oshamir are just icing on the space cake.

If we get a second season of The Acolyte I need these 2 to have fight scenes together especially ones where these 2 are back to back please.

I’m talking about some Us vs Them kind of scene’s but don’t make them cheesy please.

I wan’t it to have good choreograph

[notyourmoon4528]

The teacher: ok this is what we have been practicing for, take a deep breath and gently but firmly shake her hand.

Qimir: don't listen to him, take her hand and then ask if she wants to lick you clean.

The stranger breathing heavily: Osssshhhhhha

The teacher: please just take her hand and not be a creep for once.

The stranger staring at the force of Osha's hand: ossssshhhhha

The teacher forcing the stranger into his corner to take over and taking Osha's hand: gotta do everything myself.

Free my man he cannot see anything 😂

[thefandomfires]

Season Two gotta be at least 16 episodes.

At least the first 8 of them gotta be a slow burn build of Oshamir pining.

Sorry I don’t make the rules 🤷🏼‍♀️
