Four kids make a mysterious discovery on their home planet that leads them to get 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 is entertaining Neel’s young siblings is the same one Chewbacca’s family watch in the infamous El especial navideño de la Guerra de las Galaxias (1978 ).. Featured in AniMat's Crazy Cartoon Cast: Silly Old Deadly Bear (2022). As most children of the Eighties I have fond memories of The Goonies, but I would be lying if I said that’s the direction I desperately wanted for new Star Wars content. I mean, after the disappointment of the sequel trilogy and many others – all Disney live-action content except Andor, Rogue One and the first two seasons of Mando I’d rate between mediocre and bad – I’m just starving for good mature, epic Star Wars content. Give me an Andor-like show set in the Old Republic with Jedi, Sith and Nick Gillard as stunt coordinator for the lightsaber battles. HOWEVER… to be fair I will say that Skeleton Crew is okay. It’s not offensive or poorly made; not obviously cheap like The Book of Boba Fett; not aimless like Season 3 of Mando; not lore-breaking like the sequels and Kenobi; not tone-deaf like the Acolyte. Hooray? This is basically Star Wars Goonies, a neat little story of a bunch of kids having an adventure in the Star Wars universe. The writing is so far (as of episode 4) decent: effects, costumes and locations look great: the whole thing has a certain charm. I’m guessing this, similar to Andor, is a passion project for its creators and was seen as a minor side-project by the higher-ups, who did not therefore bother to get involved, which nowadays in Lucasfilm is a blessing. So far, so good. 7,5/10.. "One Hundred Years of Solitude" is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month. Check out our December calendar for more!
