“Skeleton Crew” from Jude Law; and more stars from a galaxy far, far away
Plot
Four children make a mysterious discovery on their home planet that sends them lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. The holographic circus that entertains Neel’s young siblings is the same as Chewbacca’s family clock in the infamous The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978).
Featured in AniMat’s Crazy Cartoon Cast: Silly Old Deadly Bear (2022)
Based on the previews, I thought this was going to be terrible. I’ve only watched the first episode and was amazed at how enjoyable it was.
A kind of Star Wars Spielberg-style
I have high hopes for this one. It may be aimed at kids, but I still enjoy this type of storytelling as an older adult.
There’s even a little social commentary
The first episode was fun and engaging, and it flowed well and didn’t take itself too seriously. So far, it’s the second best series after Endor, but that may change as you watch more episodes.
I think this series is a good direction for the Disney/Star Wars mix
