I’m disappointed in seeing a video titled “Has THE ACOLYTE Killed Star Wars?” on the Screencrush YouTube channel. The thumbnail has “RUINING STAR WARS?” on it. I’ve always liked Screencrush. I’m not sure if its a toxic video or constructive criticism.

Do I give them the benefit and find out?

@vazquez Most internet headlines formed as questions result in the answer, "No." Sounds like a pretty garbage channel to me. If you want deep-dive Star Wars criticism, I highly recommend the A More Civilized Age podcast.

@gregmoore I was wrong about Screencrush, they are on the up and up, but they are using click-baity video titles (ugh.) I checked out A More Civilized Age. I've added it to my podcast list. Can't wait for them to get to the end of Rebels.

@vazquez It's difficult to identify good vs bad pop culture criticism on Youtube because their algorithm forces everyone into needing click-bait titles and thumbnails to keep any traction.
I only recently discovered the AMCA podcast and have been listening through their back catalog in order. They point out so many little connections I've never made.
