This Mystery is Totally Wizard! - Skeleton Crew Season 1 Eps 2 Reaction

The kids being FROM where the treasure is, as opposed to being on a quest for the treasure, is such a nice play on the trope.

[@tmatthewnielsen]

The real treasure.... was Home.

[@LordLOC]

True but we don't know if "eternal treasure" is really why their planet is hidden/a myth like thing. Don't forget they specifically mention the Old Republic in this episode - and on the planet there is "The Great Work" which could mean anything really. Quite a few theories think the planet is actually a High Republic world that had the barrier put up to protect it/hide it for whatever reason. Regardless, I bet we find out pretty soon-ish what might be going on. Plus, Jude Law's character has a secret :D

Everyone keeps latching on to "Old Republic credits," but it looked to me like the republic insignia on them is the hexagonal Galactic Republic logo. I'm thinking it's "old Republic credits" with a lowercase "o." I'm thinking At Attin isolated themselves during the High Republic, or pre-Clone Wars, or just pre-Empire.

[@coolbreeze1138]

Ferns mom said they would be part of the "great work" which was what the high Republic called things like Starlight Beacon. I wonder if they got isolated by some entity (the supervisor) to protect them from something and it's been so long they just don't remember. I think it's weird. All of the teachers and security and everything are all droids too.

[@davidbergfors6820]

I agree with you, to me it is obvious it's the old republic as in just before the Empire. In the SW world, I don't think anyone really thinks about the "Old Republic" as we do, the time some 3000 years prior, that's just legends. to be hidden away from Palpatine, they would have had to hide a little earlier I believe, had Palpatine known about At-Attin there is no doubt in my mind that it wouldn't have been an imperial world. I'm thinking that maybe they "hid" even before the Naboo crisis, might be about 50 years or so. but was it intentional, or accidental?

[@diamond-sk2ll]

i will say, the O is capitalized in the subtitles. plus, feels weird that currency from a government that was around less than 30 years ago would be considered to be such an unlikely sight. i’m at least hoping they mean Old Republic-era.

Guys! the mystery is real!! 9:36 I just loved the perfect little addition of the roof that got shot fell down! 13:14 it's been 28 Years since order 66, I guess he had to survive somehow? Could it be that At-Attin has been lost to the galaxy for some 50 years? I have not been able to stop thinking about this since I saw the episodes this tuesday! that initial drop out of hyperspace wasn't normal, but it wasn't the hyperdrive going out either, because just a little later it works just fine when SM-33 takes them to the Pirate Cove. I had a thought about this earlier, could it be that this "barrier" over At-Attin initiated a delayed purge of the Navicomputers logs, forcing a stop?

[@The2ndQuest]

The people on the planet mention "The Great Work", and "great works" is a term that has been associated with the projects of a Supreme Chancellor during the High Republic era, so it could have been cut off from the galaxy for much longer than 50 years (though I guess you'd have to explain how they got R3X droids and movie-era Holiday Special holo entertainment).

[@jameswg13]

That the undersecretary referenced Great Works i think it's been more than 50 years. Think more along the lines of the Great Hyperspace Disaster and wars/fights with the Nihil. The barrier also reminds me of how the Nihil travelled

[@davidbergfors6820]

@jameswg13 I see. High Republic era is a time I'm fuzzy about, sadly haven't had time nor energy to buy 100 books to keep track of it all. 50 years was my minimum number.

[@jameswg13]

@davidbergfors6820 tbf I've only read so many of the books. Although you only really need to read the first one to get an idea about the Great hyperspace disaster and the Nihil / possibly how they travel.

[@The2ndQuest]

That exit from hyperspace, with the colored trails, usually indicates a ship being forced out of hyperspace, or the result of an accident causing an uncontrolled exit. In this case, it's likely a combination of the ship being damaged and whatever random jump it took ending prematurely (it probably wasn't trying to exit in the middle of deep space).

[@donaldfrederick501]

The "treasure" though about the planet I think is simply the planet itself... A place untouched by Clone Wars or Fall of the Republic or the entire time of the Empire.

All three could have been seen at Disney World at the same time in the pre-Disney ownership era of Star Wars. If you want to extend that to stories about a kid getting lost on a spaceship and having to find his way home with the help of a robot onboard the ship, the ship prop from Flight of the Navigator was also at Disney World within the former Backlot Tour, so that would make at least 4 things that were there back then . 😃

I had a thought about this earlier; could it be that this "barrier" over At-Attin initiated a delayed purge of the Navicomputers logs, forcing a stop? I have not been able to stop thinking about this since I saw the episodes this tuesday! I surmise that At-Attin has been lost to the galaxy for some 50 years. For an economically important world like this ("Eternal Treasure") to not have been hit during the Clone wars nor have been impacted by the some 25 years of Imperial rule, The Emperor can't have known about it at all, and since he came to office as Supreme chancellor at the time of the Naboo incident, some 15 years prior to the formation of the empire, At-Attin has to be "forgotten" or lost prior to this, it has to be at least 40 years since At-Attin had any contact with the Old Republic. Unless the leadership are aware of what is happening outside and has chosen to be hidden... the barrier forcing a navigation log wipe upon leaving would indicate this.

Not to get all nerdy and pedantic, but tertiary thrusters would be necessary to navigate in space, as the lack of gravity and air resistance means a ship wouldn't function the way it would on, say, Earth. There would be a lot more drift, and X-Wings wouldn't be able to fly as cool as they do without tertiary thrusters. I'll see myself out.

I want to say this is Treasure Island in space, except that there’s literally a Disney movie that’s Treasure Island in space.

Welcome to Star Wars, Nick Frost. I now need SM-33 to meet Unkar Plutt for that reunion. As for the mystery of At Attin. Undersecretary Fara referred to the 'The Great Work', that's a High Republic thing. These guys have totally been cut off from the rest of the galaxy for the entirety of the Republic and Empire eras, haven't they?

SM33? As in Smee from Peter Pan? God damn, I love this show already 👍🏼👍🏼

Gotta give props to the kid actors in this, and the directors for getting such great performances out of them. I liked the ATLA live action show well enough, but I really felt that the kids (aang and katara especially) felt quite green and over-directed for a large portion of the show, especially early in the series. They didn’t come across as genuine at times, but this cast feels a lot more natural and less child-actor-y, like the directors let them be kids on their own and wasn’t really telling them to act in a particular way. Reactions and interactions between them feel much more natural, and I love it!

A new Star Wars property that is expanding the universe?! Original story telling?!?!?! People will complain and it will be cancelled and we will return to Tatooine?! Probably. I hope there is a season 1 resolution just in case.

Surely they've been cut off since the high Republic then and the time of the great works being created like starlight beacon. Old republic credits , a planet thats a Myth , a greenish barrier ( reminds me of the Nihil)
