As most Star Warse movies and shows do, The Acolyte begins with a text card explaining the basic premise of the series. But there’s something cool about this particular version of this trope. The text is colored blue, a callback to the very first “A long time ago, in a galaxy far away” in the original Star Wars. But the font the words are typed in is different — it’s actually the font used (in yellow) in the classic Star Wars crawl. So this opening actually combines two different Star Wars tropes into a single image.

Kevin Feige has confirmed most fans suspicions based on early rumors and artwork: Marvel’s The Fantastic Four movie will be a period piece. Feige revealed that information on the debut episode of The Official Marvel Podcast. When asked whether the retro vibes of the teaser artwork Marvel unveiled a few months ago, like the old school feel of the Fantastic Four’s blue jumpsuits, hinted at the film being set in the past, the typically secretive Feige was unusually blunt in his response:

Commitment to realism on film and television is more thorough and nitpicky than it’s ever been, mainly because its audience is also more nitpicky than we’ve been in the past. If you’re going to show us “grounded” superhero stories and dragons that obey the laws of aerodynamics we’ll be on the lookout for anything that doesn’t fit in with this commitment to realism.

Well now we know that The Acolyte’s mysterious Sith Lord turned out to be (SPOILER ALERT) Qimir. Did the reveal work? To most fans watching the show, Qimir was the obvious (and maybe even only) suspect in the cast. But is it bad to be obvious? And how will this reveal impact the remaining three episodes of the season?

Watchmen is getting yet another adaptation — this one animated. It has previously been turned into a very faithful Zack Snyder live-action movie, and it was also given a sequel TV series a few years ago on HBO. There’s even a “motion comic” of the classic Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons series as well.

Critics have given the new Star Wars show, The Acolyte, solid to highly positive reviews. And yet the audience scores on websites like Rotten Tomatoes are shockingly low. We’re talking a difference of roughly 50 points between the critics’ rating and the audience’s rating. That’s a huge divide between critics and fans.

Why Are ‘The Acolyte’s Audience Scores So Low?

The color yellow is gorgeous, eye-catching, and downright happy for most people. So much so that it's the main hue in the world-famous happy face—but science says it's not the best color to wear on a date.

The Scituate Animal Shelter of Massachusetts recently introduced an adorable dog named Daisy, a gentle and loving little lady who has sadly lost her beloved owner and is now looking for a new loving home. This 7-year-old, 22 lb dog, has been described by the Scituate Animal Shelter of Massachusetts as "100% an absolute delight."

Star Wars is charting a new course with the Disney+ series The Acolyte, which is set 100 years before the events of the Star Wars prequels, and features a group of Jedi we’ve never met onscreen before investigating a series of murders during a period where they stand totally unopposed by the Sith. The Acolyte is something different for Star Wars; part mystery series, part detective procedural, There’s no Empire. There’s no Darth Anybody. Through the first two episodes there are no space battles.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced an adorable puppy named Koi who they describe as a “sweet and happy little puppy who found himself dumped at a high kill shelter for unknown reasons.” Despite the harsh start to his life, Koi remains an adorable and energetic puppy. Now, thanks to Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. giving him a second chance and rescuing him from the high-kill shelter, Koi is ready for adoption and looking for his forever home.

There is a lot of armchair quarterbacking about the state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe these days, and what the company is doing right, and what they could be doing better. One critique I haven’t heard much that I think is fair and perhaps more important than it may appear: The early Marvel movies were heavily connected. Each one seemed to lead into the next and characters didn’t disappear for long. Tony Stark showed up in the very next movie, The Incredible Hulk. Hawkeye was in Thor before he was in The Avengers. Captain America flowed directly into The Avengers, and so on.

There are a few mysteries in Star Wars: The Acolyte, but none bigger than this: Who is the Dark Master and what is their big plan? Clearly, this strange, disturbing Force wielder is manipulating Mae to kill these four Jedi who she blames for this tragedy that occurred during her childhood. But why does the Master want Mae to murder the four Jedi? What do they get out of her revenge plan, whether it succeeds or fails? And how does that connect to the identity of this mysterious Sith (is that a Sith?) under that hideous helmet?

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced Bagel, who they describe as a “deliciously petite” French Bulldog. According to Sandy Paws Rescue, Bagel, who is only 22 lbs, is a medium energy dog who "enjoys a good run around the yard chasing squirrels, or a nice walk, but also loves to snooze away the day."

“Go home,” posts reader after reader. The comment streams of my articles about the migrants have a common refrain: “You’re not welcome here.” And much, much worse. I’ve had to shut down the comments on some of my articles due to downright hostile remarks. It occurred to me, however, that the migrants probably aren’t reading American news, which is published in English. Immigrant rights and housing advocate Amy Beck confirmed my suspicions. “No, I don't think they're aware because the majority don't speak English and don't follow local Denver news,” Beck said in an email. ”It's also not something I've ever mentioned to them. It's not important to me to point out haters. I'm usually talking with them about services and their rights. Also just helping them along their path. I've never discussed haters with them unless haters physically show up in a camp and we have to deal with them firsthand.”

Opinion: Anti-migrant comments, not limited to Denver, fall upon deaf ears
