STAR WARS SKELETON CREW Eps 1-3 REVIEW | Lucasfilm | Disney

[@FilonisHat]

Don’t give the audience what it wants; give it something it didn’t know it wanted. I hope this show fulfills this time-tested axiom.

[@Infamous1892]

Didn't you hate the Last Jedi for doing this exact same thing?

[@FilonisHat]

@@Infamous1892 Ep VIII is a unique case, because it is such a mixed bag. I didn’t know I wanted to see a pacifist Luke Skywalker take down the First Order not with violence, but a masterful use of the Force, like a true Jedi. But I didn’t want to see Leia fly across the vacuum of space. I didn’t know I wanted Yoda’s last lesson to be a powerful message on failure, yet I didn’t want to see a badly written purple-haired lady usurp Poe Dameron. That film is an enigma, but the good parts barely outweigh the bad, in my opinion.

[@stephanielitz4056]

Here after watching ep 1 - so charming! I like the kid actors a lot and believe them as actual characters, and I can’t wait to go on an adventure with them.

[@maxrebo8455]

I love how best mates and huge Star Wars nerds Nick Frost and Simon Pegg both have roles in Star Wars.

[@scriptedZombie]

I personally loved the first two eps! Looking forward to seeing where it goes!

[@Darthjarjar6619]

Really cool to see that the show sounds good, I’ll be checking it out tomorrow

[@ZachBobBob]

I agree this made me feel the way first episode The Mandalorian made me feel while watching it for the first time. Totally different tones and subjects but I just got that same warm Star Warsy feeling in my heart that I haven't had for a while.

[@rickbrown24]

It was pretty good. I love these kids already! The show reminded me on why I fell in love with Star Wars. Looking forward to your in depth chat on the Geek buddies and the Jedi Way.

[@dejabu24]

great to see that so far most reviews are good

[@chrisretzlaff2895]

How brilliant to have a Droid named SM-33 in Star Wars be a pirate. Disney nod to Peter Pans Mr. Smee

[@Vulcanerd]

Not only is he named Smee, he's got one eye and a peg leg! 😆

[@jackson857]

I am not a kid of the 80's or 90's and haven't seen Goonies or even ET and I loved the first two episodes. It's going to be such a great show.

[@Vulcanerd]

Worked for me, looking forward to more episodes. I wonder what the truth is behind At Attin what Na Nawood is all about.

[@markkuykendall5475]

In the months leading up to this, I was saying that the "suburbia" part of Atatin looked like the San Fernando valley. Now that we see more of it, it doesn't. It looks like Seattle's "East Side."

[@aaronblum9555]

I saw the episodes at one of the fan screenings. It was great to see them on big screen. As a big Star Wars fan and child of the 80s, it definitely had me nostalgic for my childhood, which is what I was hoping and as the show centers around the kids, I'm sure young fans will be into it as well. I enjoyed it for the most part, and can't wait to see the rest!

[@Scimarad]

Really liked the first two eps. Good stuff!!

[@MrMtspace]

Great review, thanks John 😊✌🏾💜🕉

[@Darrenleewright84]

I enjoyed the vibe also. It looked fantastic at times . I spent more time though trying to figure out what nick frost was mimicking with that voice role

[@yv3652]

Enjoyed the first ep but thought it was too kiddy for me.But enjoyed the second ep a lot more.

[@ameliacraiig4193]

I really enjoyed it too. Those early Twitter reviews seemed to be genuine, then. Not just at the whim of Lucasfilm.

[@Tware8100]

What worked for me is that you enjoyed it. What doesn't work for me. I don't have Disney+.

[@ANGELOFDOOM66]

Sounds good. I'll wait til its all out and binge it.

[@thaIllYankee]

Opening of Ep 1 was great w/the large ship entering the screen just before getting hijacked = ode to how A New Hope opened. I hope kids like this series and want to get to know more about SW. Knowing I'm not the Target Audience, I'll be tuning in strictly for the background Easter Eggs & hints toward the greater Lore. Wonder if this Series will be good enough to incorporate the characters into new stories w/Sequel characters like Rey 🤔

[@gustavoolivieri6568]

I enjoyed the first 2 very much! I'm an 80s kid, so... lol I'm looking forward for the rest, and I hope it goes strong until the end as Agatha All Along did... (because, to me, The Acolyte derailed at episode 4...)

[@bensonstrumpet_tips]

I'm glad you enjoyed the episodes. I got to say that personally I'm over watching shows that have less then 10 episodes in them. ( The boys is the exception) Also episodes that are 20 or less minutes long is not worth it.

[@Apljakz]

Will you should be happy to know that the first 2eps are 2 hours long. With credits mind you. But still. Good runtimes so far.

[@jscoots4reel]

The Penguin was 8 episodes and it worked, but go ahead and limit yourself so arbitrarily

[@gregv2k]

It managed to copy the opening of Star Wars, the speeder bike chase from Return of the Jedi, and every 80s Spielberg suburban family within the first 10 minutes. I liked the Goonies fine when I was a kid and I’m happy for all the kids who enjoy this “homage.” Or is it like poetry? It rhymes? 😊

[@cirugo7042]

Has it dropped already? Wow

[@Michael.Miles1]

Here is the thing people need to understand. Not everything is for everybody. That doesn't mean a show or movie is bad. As a middle aged man I have zero desire to watch this. Not one bit. But I hope people who do enjoy it. ✌🏾✌🏾

[@Apljakz]

I'm a middle aged man and I had a blast with the show so far. Give it a shot you never know!

[@jollyrayda]

youtube.com/@Michael.Miles1 I gave it a shot, and when I realised I'd spent 15-20 minutes actively wishing that the main character would just get himself killed already, I dipped. But my housemate had an absolute ball. We're both huge Star Wars fans (our love (heck, knowledge of their existence) of the books are how we became friends when I first left home), so he'll watch and I won't. Pretty easy 🙂

[@arthurmc0068]

Hell yeah!

[@davidmun1601]

My problem with Disney Star Wars shows is that these shows tend to start out great, but often fails to stick the landing

[@Darrenleewright84]

We only get two in the uk , typical uk tv getting the short end of the stick as always

[@JohnRochaSays]

I got three because they sent me the screeners, brother.

[@anthonylakich1727]

like your hat sir and goonies in space i'm fine with something old but much needed and fun

[@markkuykendall5475]

5:17 People puke? Really? I think that'll be a first for Star Wars canon!

[@markkuykendall5475]

First YARK to Skelly Crew!

[@bobbyhoward2304]

Where is the 3rd episode showing at?

[@JohnRochaSays]

I get the screeners as a critic, bud.

[@mirkol6076]

Well there are 2 f most important things in Star Wars: Sith and Jedi(Sith vs Jedi) So is there any f chance for me to see in the next 20 years some SW TV Show with these...They could create TV Show about Revan, Bane, Luke, Vitiale, Nihilus, but NO they keep with totally not relevant/weak/f CUTE characters. WHY????????????????????????

[@JustinSwapp]

So excited for this! It looks like a fun show.

[@bobbyhoward2304]

3 episodes they only show 2

[@lordofthebricks1]

I actually think show might be good, but unfortunatelly it will suffer from: - Almost a dozen of recent bad / terrible STAR WARS shows/movies - For lack of planning - Cancelling STAR WARS projects..... They killed all of joy of being a STAR WARS fan, and it's a shame......

[@claudiogallucci563]

Show is just NOT FOR ME it's for 10 year olds.. its goonies in space not made for me I could not get past 1st episode ( which is fine again its not made for me) I can't WAIT for andor season 2

[@Infamous1892]

Star Wars for adults born in the 80's is so boring. I just wanna watch a Galaxy far far away, not slice of life 80's nostalgia. Where are the Jedi? Where are the Sith? Where is the grand adventure? We're stuck watching Goonies meets Stranger things in Space. I don’t care about the 80's like that. Star Wars moved past the 80's.
