Man the Star Wars fanbase is shit. SO INCREDIBLY TOXIC JEEEEZ. The people here on Lemmy seem to be waaay more chill tho. I absolutely LOVED episode 3. The music (which many found cringe for some reason) is what I loved the most honestly. The ascension scene was ART imo. I genuinely don’t get the hate for this show.
A note about the ascension scene: When the leader witch says, “we were at the brink of extinction”, one of the witches does that crazy maniacal witch laughter. I was weirded out a little in the beginning as to why she would do that. But when you think about it a little, this is exactly what the witches are. They’re different and weird, which is why they were ostracized by society and hunted down (as per the show). I see them as that cringe group of students that are present in every classroom. The others find them cringe, but they are actually very chill people. Unfortunately, because of their so called “cringeness”, they are bullied a lot.
As for the ending, OF COURSE the twin didn’t burn the fortress down on her own. That is LITERALLY what the first two episodes were about lmao. Why would the 10 year long meditation Jedi guy commit suicide then? Why would the other dark twin (forgot if it was May or Osha) go on a hunting spree against these particular Jedi?
Are people hating this show just because it is “woke” or something? Like… the witches aren’t even actual lesbians. Like… you can’t have homosexuality if heterosexuality doesn’t exist, right? It would just be… sexuality sexuality I suppose. I genuinely can’t see how this thing was “woke”. Or was it because the leader witch was black or something? Would people get upset about that NOW? Come on…
I also loved the leader witch… I think the actress portrayed her role very well! She definitely gave off those comforting motherly vibes…
If something is supposed to be cringe, it’s up to the creators to find a way to indicate that to the audience, otherwise it’s taken at face value. Syrill Karn’s speech to Mosk’s troops in Andor is a good example of how to do that.
As for any ‘anti-woke’ sentiment - I’m sure there’s some, but most of the criticism seems to come from people who just straight-forwardly aren’t enjoying the show as much as you. I hope you continue to enjoy it.
