Star Wars: Skeleton Crew (Disney+ series)

*Andrew NDB* · 10-04-2023, 03:00 AM

I thought there was a thread for this but I couldn't find it.

https://nerdist.com/article/star-war...thing-we-know/

"Skeleton Crew follows the journey of four kids who make a mysterious discovery on their seemingly safe home planet, then get lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. Finding their way home—and meeting unlikely allies and enemies—will be a greater adventure than they ever imagined."

Starring Jude Law. Coming... December? Maybe?

I actually hadn't read that plot description until now. So it seems a little clearer now. Ahsoka and Sabine and Shin Hati are all stranded in another galaxy after Ahsoka season 1. Now, coincidentally, Skeleton Crew will have some people also end up in a galaxy other than the main Star Wars one? And Filoni is producing this?

We're probably looking at the next phase of the Filoni shared universe, leading up to his movie. And probably even the resolution of at least all the parties still in the other galaxy from Ahsoka season 1.

Kids on a ship lost in space?

Sounds like Star Trek Prodigy.

It will be more deconstruction. More Rian Johnson "there are no chosen ones - everyone can use the force!"

*Andrew NDB* · 10-04-2023, 11:27 PM

Maybe. But maybe this is where we see the next part of Baylan's journey.

Season 3 was.... eh. I don't know. All I know is that I went from re-watching episodes to barely getting through them. I still have high hopes for it, but the Book of Boba Fett really threw a wrench in the flow of things in general. Ironic too, because the Mando episodes were the only good thing about TBOBF.

Show premieres December 3rd. I am not watching it cause the 4 main characters are children

Spoiler:

*Andrew NDB* · 07-31-2024, 11:28 AM

Oh... I didn't realize they were going THAT young with the kids. Ehhh. It is a Filoni joint, though, and I suspect it ties in with Ahsoka what with the other galaxy and all.

Is this aimed at young kids or something? This looks a lot worse or strange than I imagined. Looks like a kid-focused series. May not be a bad thing but child actors are usually not good.

*Andrew NDB* · 07-31-2024, 05:16 PM

I thought this was going to be Jude Law trying to shepherd a bunch of 90210/Riverdale-age "teens" (as in probably 25 year olds playing 16, 17). I was not expecting, like, small children.

*Andrew NDB* · 08-09-2024, 11:21 PM

I mean, OK. I'll give it a shot. Maybe they're going for Stranger Things in space.

I have a feeling it's going to be pretty good, pretty solid but I think having it follow The Acolyte is going to set it up for people maybe not really tuning in. Word of mouth after the first two or three is the best hope.

*CyberCubed* · 11-01-2024, 04:49 PM

Seems like it will be alright, the only downfall might be if the child actors aren't written well, or simply can't act well. But I guess you can say that for anything with kid actors.

*Zulithe* · 11-01-2024, 09:59 PM

Looks fantastic and I can't wait to watch it.

Which itself was just a Trek-flavoured remake of this:

(Prolific Trek fiction writer Peter David also created it)

*Andrew NDB* · 12-02-2024, 09:43 PM

Saw the first two. It's fine. Kind of cute.

*Autbot_Benz* · 12-03-2024, 10:24 PM

I watched the first two episodes too. It's harmless fun.
