The Acolyte Trailer Breaks Lucasfilm Records

The Force is strong with the trailer for the upcoming Disney+ series.

Thanks to Star Wars fans, the trailer launch for The Acolyte has been one to remember.

Released yesterday, the trailer for The Acolyte garnered 51.3 million views in its first 24 hours. This is a new digital-only record for any Lucasfilm Disney+ series, surpassing every trailer for The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett, Andor, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Ahsoka. We’re grateful for your support, and can’t wait for you to experience the series

Annnnnd now we know why they went with a bot based campaign. Just to create this meaningless ad byte.

I have no idea how the reception has been outside of this place. But I could easily envision massive trailer views and general negative reception. The fans have always been there and would love more interesting content IMO. Saturation has never been the problem IMO. The problem has been crappy content since Disney purchased the IP IMO. If the general reaction has been negative I'd guess it's because the trailer suggests that the content will be more like post-Disney content than pre-Disney content, which is why I have no excitement for this despite the flashy lightsabers.

It's worth scrolling through the comment section for a few chuckles.

I'd be more inclined to believe the likes and positive comments are bots.

Yeah, who would pay for downvote bots? Kurtzman slip that into the Star Fleet Academy marketing budget for Paramount+?

Yeah not a good sign that they have to use bots to try to get any positive buzz for this show

Lol some of these are great.
I'm surprised Disney still has the comments enabled on the video.
