Jude Law stars in "Skeleton Crew" and other stars from a galaxy far, far away
Synopsis
Four kids on their home planet make a mysterious discovery that leaves them lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. The holographic circus that entertains Neal's younger siblings is the same one Chewbacca's family watches in the infamous Star Wars: The Christmas Special (1978).
He stars in the crazy cartoon AniMat: Silly Old Deadly Bear (2022)
Like most '80s kids, I have fond memories of The Goonies, but I'd be lying if I said it's a direction I really wanted new Star Wars content to go. I think after being disappointed by the sequel trilogy and so many others, I would rate all of Disney's live-action content as mediocre to bad, except for Andor, Rogue One, and the first two seasons of Mando.
I'm hungry for good, mature, epic Star Wars content
Give me an Andor-esque show set in the Old Republic with Jedi, Sith, and Nick Gillard as a stunt coordinator in lightsaber battles. HOWEVER...
I'll honestly say Skeleton Crew is okay
It's not offensive or poorly made; it's not blatantly cheap like the Boba Fett book; it's not pointless like Mando Season 3; it doesn't overwhelm the story like the sequels and Kenobi; nor is it dull like Acolyte. The script so far (for episode 2) is decent: the effects, costumes, and locations look great: I suspect this, like Andor, is a passion project for its creators and was treated as a small side project by higher-ups who didn't bother getting involved, which is a blessing for Lucasfilm these days.
So far so good
7.5/10. Refresh your watchlist with the latest streaming movies and TV shows coming to Disney+, including old favorites and the best new releases.
