Skeleton Crew 2024– Download Magnet

43/16

Featured in AniMat's Crazy Cartoon Cast: Silly Old Deadly Bear (2022)

Four kids make a mysterious discovery on their home planet that lands them lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. Jude Law in “Skeleton Crew” plus more stars from a galaxy far, far away.. The holographic circus that entertains Neil’s little siblings is the same one Chewbacca’s family watched in the infamous The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978)..

Give me an Andor-like show set in the Old Republic with Jedi, Sith, and Nick Gillard as the stunt coordinator for the lightsaber battles

Like most kids from the eighties, I have fond memories of The Goonies, but I’d be lying if I said this was the direction I was desperate for new Star Wars content to go. I mean, after the disappointment of the sequel trilogy and so much else – all of Disney’s live-action content except for Andor, Rogue One, and the first two seasons of Mando, I would rate somewhere between mediocre and bad – I’m just starving for good, epic Star Wars content. HOWEVER…

to be fair, I’ll say Skeleton Crew is good

It’s not offensive or poorly made; it’s not blatantly cheap like The Book of Boba Fett; it’s not pointless like Season 3 of Mando; it’s not lore-busting like the sequels and Kenobi; it’s not tone-deaf like Acolyte. Hooray? It’s basically Star Wars Goonies, a neat little story about a group of kids having an adventure in the Star Wars universe.

So far so good

The writing so far (from episode 2) is decent: the effects, costumes, and locations look great: the whole thing has a certain charm. I’m guessing this, like Andor, was a passion project for its creators and was seen as a minor side project by the higher-ups who didn’t bother to get involved, which in Lucasfilm these days is a blessing. 7.5/10..
