SPOILER: Skeleton Crew D+ Series - Debut Dec 2, 2024

[sedati]

Some nice concepts, character moments, and visuals but the direction was lackluster and lacking in whimsy.

 

[MisterPenguin]

Umm, what happened to the last scene? The one where they decide to follow the coordinates to the other lost planets in hopes one will have the missing coordinates to get them home? Or are they going to try again with 33?

I was thinking the same thing: Try the other planets.

Tho, if that previous pirate erased At Attin's address on this planet, he'd might have thought to do the same on the other planets.

I anticipate them talking to 33's disconnected head.

Very Ailens.

Really enjoying this show so far. Very Spileberg esque soundtrack like Goonies meets ET. Love that owl from episode 3. Appreciate the Captain EO Easter egg. Probably the best Star Wars Disney + show since Mandalorian season 1 or two. Although I didn’t hate Book of Boba. Haven’t seen Andor, Arcolyte or Ashoka.

I thought that episode was a bit too goofy. Though they made light of it right off the bat with the joke about it being a planet of kids at war. Hopefully they move on to a different world next episode.

Yeah wasn’t crazy about episode 4. I thought the first 3 episodes were solid though.

I was fine with Ep4, shows that each of these "At X" planets appear to be experiments (sort of like the Divergent series) and sets up the rest of the season of planet hopping to all the rest of "At X" planets with I suspect a cliffhanger in Ep8 of them not making it back home.

I enjoy the show but it's still a bit weird for me trying to reconcile what is more of a kids show with the more serious feeling that comes with live action.

It's an odd mix sometimes. You've got the ludicrous kids go to space story, like in old movies such as Explorers, but also a certain seriousness that comes from the adult characters in particular.

I was thinking more like Space Camp myself.

I can't get over the obvious Goonie's lift the entire show outline has been. And the boarding the tantive ripoff... It's not cute or cool when you skip over "a nod to" and basically just recreate. It's a dead horse by now... yet Star Wars keeps beating that thing.

Wrong thread

If you can't see Goonies in this... you're blind.

Sorry I thought you posted in the wrong thread when it was me, its why I deleted that post.

Skipped over the last couple pages to avoid spoilers but I watched the first couple episodes tonight and this is probably my favorite Star Wars show since season 1 of Manolorian.

I like the intrigue and mystery, hoping it maintains the fun story.

 

[MarvelCharacterNerd]

Tho, if that previous pirate erased At Attin's address on this planet

Can't say I remember no...

 

[Disney Analyst]

Fantastic episode tonight, loved it!

 

[MarvelCharacterNerd]

Back to Pirates of the Caribbean this week.

 

[doctornick]

Back to Pirates of the Caribbean this week.

Sure, some of that too but they leaned so heavy into Goonies this week. Which was great and fun but you can clearly see the inspiration

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

…I tried…but no

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Absolutely. I’m just saying that many people seem to discount the animated shows for Star Wars. Outside of Resistance, I actually have really enjoyed all the Disney SW animated stuff including the shorts. I definitely think Bad Batch in particular deserves more attention as it was very good.

The animation has been better overall than the live action stuff - for sure…

But Star Wars is a film franchise in its dna and they can’t or won’t make it.

“This is the way”

 

[DisneyWarrior27]

Skeleton Crew’s been great so far
