Many readers have been asking me about my take on the latest Disney show by Harvey Weinstein’s former personal assistant Leslye Headland – The Acolyte. I checked out of Star Wars quite a few years ago, so I’m not up to date on all the Disney debacles.
Regular readers may remember my 2022 shout out to Force of Light Entertainment, a terrific YT channel by two sisters named Michelle and Natalie. Michelle (who has a PhD by the way) has kept current with the IP and skillfully dissects The Acolyte through its first three episodes.
This pathetic series is apparently every bit as horrible as we’ve heard, but Michelle is much less sarcastic than I am when I write reviews, so her approach may be more appealing. Below is her take on the first two Acolyte episodes, but for Michelle’s review of the execrable third episode AND to subscribe to the channel Force of Light Entertainment, click HERE.
Meet Michelle and Natalie, the two pop culture reviewers whose YT Channel is called Force of Light Entertainment. The ladies offer reviews and commentary on current day big movies and television shows, in contrast with Balladeer’s Blog’s examination of productions from the (often distant) past.
Michelle and Natalie try to stay positive when they can, and avoid the more sarcastic approach that I employ. When they do have to jump into cultural commentary depending on the item being reviewed, they push back against SJW idiocy and censorship. Below is a sample of the two sisters’ approach as they express their displeasure with an episode of The Book of Boba Fett.
