A look back at the seven best easter eggs seen in the first two episodes of Star Wars: The Acolyte.
After months of waiting and speculation, the new series Star Wars: The Acolyteis finally released on Disney+. After the latest failures of Obi-Wan, The Book of Boba Fett and to a lesser extent, Ahsoka (symptomatic of the difficulties that the firm with big ears to tell something new and emancipate itself from the legacy left by George Lucas), this new series is the perfect opportunity to move on to something else, for the simple reason that the plot takes place well before George Lucas' prelogy. Follower of fan service to excess, to the point of disgust, Disney finally has the opportunity to show what it has in its belly by creating its own universe. so, what is the verdict?
Despite some problems of rhythm, which the franchise has accustomed us to, and some clumsiness, the first two episodes are encouraging and teeming with good intentions. The kung-fu orientation (teased by the showrunner) is well and truly assumed, and the series offers a new approach to a more self-confident Jedi Order, with its representatives who change as a police officer. As for the new characters, if they are uneven, we will salute the writing of Master Sol, a firm Jedi, but full of empathy, to the point of doubt. A great way to break the myth of the Jedi Master and his ability to fight. à proscribe any form of sentimentalism. As is often the case with Disney, these two episodes are littered with small references and easter eggs to the rest of the saga, and even beyond. Return in seven points.
The first minutes of episode 1 set the tone. The Assassin Mae àgrave; The search for the Jedi and Master Indara enters a bar which obviously recalls the Mos Eisley canteen of A New Hope, theater of the meeting between Luke Skywalker and Han Solo. There is also an Ithorian, a species whose head is shaped like a hammer, as a bartender. A kung fu fight then begins between Mae (Amandla Stenberg) and Jedi Indara, played by Carrie-Anne Moss, the Trinity of Matrix. Enough to logically make the connection.
We hadn't seen them since George Lucas's prequel. The Nemoidians, the species with The head of the Commerce Federation in the three films by George Lucas reappears in the first episode. They run a ship on which Osha is employed as a“meknek”, a sort of freelance mechanic.
A saber color that many have denigrated. reappears. The young Jedi Yord Fandar sports a yellow saber rarely seen in the saga.Only Rey was killed. seen with in the canonical universe, in The Rise of Skywalker. In the Expanded Universe, Luke Skywalker uses a yellow lightsaber after the events of the >Empire Strikes Back, in the comicsStar Wars #6 from Marvel Comics.
In the second episode, Osha receives a vision of the Force, after crashed, linked to both at the same time his past and at; its future.The same thing happened to Rey inThe Force Awakenswhen she touched Luke's saberin the castle of Maz Kanata. Except that in the case of the Jedi, this technique is called psychometrics, a faculty of to feel the history of an object by touching it with your hands.
At the beginning of the series, Master Sol gives a course in which he asks students to understand their strengths. a group of young Jedi aspiring to use the Force, close their eyes and tell him what they “see”. One of them reveals to him that he sees an ocean. This echoes the words of Jedi Master Elzar Mann who lived earlier in the world. the period of the High Republic and who considered the Force as an ocean.A reference to the non-canonical Star Wars universe.
In her quest to kill the Jedi Masters, Mae stumbles upon Torbin in the Jedi Temple on the planet Olega. There, we learn that the Master has withdrawn from the world through meditation. This act of penance is called the Vow of Barash, created over 250 years ago, born by the Jedi Master of the High Republic Barash Silvain, and recounts in comics. Rather than continuing to do so. live and enjoy Operating under the supervision of the Jedi Order, those who choose this path withdraw from activities. It was about connecting better with the Force itself rather than one's own motivations and desires.
This sentence uttered by Yord is one of the rejoinders. the most cult replicas of the galaxy far, far away. It is notablyused by Obi-Wan to several times throughout the prelogy.
