I watched the third episode of The Acolyte last night, and I see today that its online reception has been very contentious. I thought it had it's share of problems in the pacing and acting department (with the exception of the girl who played Leia in Kenobi, Star Wars has not had a good track record with child actors), but the writing was deliberately vague and ambiguous to preserve the season's larger mystery, so I'll reserve judgement for now to see how it plays out.
I watched the first episode of The Acolyte. I’m not sure that this is true #StarWars. They used safety devices like clips and harnesses! What’s next, railings on catwalks that span weirdly common abysses?
On today's Ranger's Roost, if people are around, I'd love to brainstorm up a $10 Patreon tier. I've got plans to launch it with a cool giveaway, and I want to make sure we keep people around: https://www.twitch.tv/jumprangers
Rebellion is a 7-playbook 180-page Powered by the Apocalypse rpg where you play Rebels fighting the Empire. The game has some innovative mechanics like Hope and Drama Levels which creates an amazing game experience.
So go and download it! You won't regret it.
(Did I say already that it is 100% free ;) )
I always liked to think of myself of "as big a Star Wars fan as you can get before it becomes embarrassing".
But I have come to the conclusion that I really only care about "90s Star Wars".
That is, the Expanded Universe as it existed up to 1999. Before there was a second Darth, a Jedi council, clone troopers, and separatists.
Episode 1 is pretty and Episode 3 is super fun. But the only Star Wars works after 1999 that feel right are the KotOR game from 2003 and the comic series from 2006.
May the Force be with you friends! I hope to see some of you at Star Wars Celebration Japan next year! I will definitely be bringing at least 2 new cosplays....and one classic favorite 💕Throwback to my 1st Jedi cosplay for #MayThe4th! Fun facts: I hand sewed my Bastila Shan costume while on a cross country tour + finished JUST in time for Celebration 😮💨When I asked this Revan cosplayer for a photo he turned & said 'oh, it's my wife! Sure!!" 😂❤ #StarWars#Kotor#cosplay
