[@thedarkknight2221]

Seeing 2 kids in a Star Wars show pretending to fight with lightsabers is the most adorable thing I’ve seen in Star Wars ever, besides anything Grogu does.

[@mik3lang3lo]

I appreciate your innocence ❤

[@josearroyo8008]

This is the way

[@Goofballz_0]

Yeah it’s adorable❤🥹

[@SaeParsan]

This is what makes this show so enjoyable, childhood stories. Love that we all immediately stared reminiscing.

[@bradyethomas]

I’m so glad Rick is here for this!

[@jrdofficial9887]

I hope he stays, there’s a lot of shows they watch where Rick is there for like the first one or two eps then he’s just gone and it only Eric, Aaron and Cal

[@Spbatt]

i really wish i was a kid when this came out. This probably would've been one of my favorite things. Pirates in space is such a cool concept

[@Depth217]

I lost my SHIT seeing that damn holiday special circus 😂😂😂😂👌

[@plasticbagman6610]

The Star Wars holiday special reference excited me so much

[@dementecosleet568]

I know I wasn't really expecting to see a reference to the life day holiday special

[@AmazingChi]

Honestly one of the most accurate set of kid dialogues and actions I've seen in a very long while.

[@rhunmahariel7877]

This show was such a welcome surprise. Very charming. Treasure Planet, Goonies, Pirates, all those vibes with the star wars flavor. Cant wait for more!

[@jaealxndr]

Who I been waiting on. I love this show so far

[@kaenopi]

star wars kids officially have their own cocomelon brain rot, and it came from the holiday special

[@cadenpresley3674]

Off topic, but gotta say, I love Aaron’s beard. Don’t think I’ve seen that much beard on Aaron before. He rocks it.

[@sethmeyer2443]

Neel is Space Milhouse

[@spectre-8]

Aaron talking through the reveal about the kids not recognising stars is on brand

[@CaptainAmercia]

There’s something really uneasy about this planet in a strange Earth-based way. It feels so disconnected from the rest of the galaxy, and I can see why the more '80s, Earth-inspired American setting fits now. I remember when a few people were losing their minds over the trailers, calling it lazy and saying this planet and it's buildings looked too much like Earth. But after watching the first episode and hearing about what’s going on here, it’s starting to make sense. I’m also getting High Republic vibes. They never mention the New Republic, just referring to "The Republic." There’s a lot of gold and white, which reminded me of the design from the High Republic era. Plus, the kids seem to have so much insight into the Jedi and their lore, which would make sense on a New Republic planet, since they’d restore all the lost information about the Jedi that the Empire had banned. But it also makes sense that an isolated planet formed during the height of the Republic, cut off from the rest of the galaxy, would still have data about the Jedi, even with the rise of the Empire. So, does this mean these kids have no idea about the Clone Wars, the Fall of the Jedi and the Republic, or the rise and fall of the Empire, along with the formation of the New Republic?

[@CaptainAmercia]

You could also argue that the planet is meant to reflect Earth and the audience, like when we were kids, playing with our Star Wars toys and having lightsaber fights with our friends. Dreaming about discovering a crashed ship that takes us to a galaxy far, far away. Making the planet Earth would be too much, but having it simply reflect Earth during a certain time (the '80s), at the height of Star Wars fandom, is a better move.

[@LetsAllBeFriendsOkay]

Reminds me of a cut off colony combined with the animal hybrid planet from Guardians of the Galaxy 3.

[@jordanday8076]

I agree with you about the High Republic, especially since the supervisor in the classroom was talking about the ‘Great Work’, which immediately reminded me of Chancellor Lina Soh’s Great Works

[@noeezyfluff]

So excited for the rest of the series, I felt myself captivated with the same child-like wonder that I experienced when watching the first 2 trilogies as a kid/teen.

[@TheAwesome45]

Well yeah you were a kid then and this is aiming to appeal to your nostalgia.

[@Cornberry]

The lightning in the studio here is really satisfying.

[@jasonmarbach]

Absolutely phenomenal start so far. Very cool, can’t wait for next week

[@smittyjjensin558]

This was such a suprise. I had a decent urge to watch it but this first episode really captured the joy of star wars without dwelling too much on what has been done before.

[@kokopelli_002]

I know the show did its job when you guys immediately started recalling your own childhood adventures. This is the Star Wars show we needed then, but I'm glad our children will have it. 😊

[@alexanderthealright]

Neel is a wonderful cinnamon roll and can do no wrong.

[@shadowknife333]

Neel is so cute

[@scotthewitt258]

Neel is the best best friend ever. "Are you going to fail? I can fail, too. Then we'll still be in class together."

[@TomVCunningham]

​@@scotthewitt258a true ride or die homie.

[@b3yourself91]

I’m absolutely vibing with this! Star Wars suburbia is a wild concept

[@cinemagoose]

Just seeing how the prologue was a remake of the beginning of ANH, but with a twist, was so amazing for me. Add in all the later references to my favorite movie, the Holiday Special. So good!

[@Corvid76]

Explorers (1985) with River Phoenix and Ethan Hawke is one of those 80's movies you're thinking of but couldn't remember.

[@JinxMadness]

Weirdly Original Trilogy whimsical feel about these first two episodes that’s been missing from Star Wars and I’m for it!

[@lilskywalker4491]

This was my childhood. Somehow they managed to totally capture the vibes/feels of all the 70s/80s movie from back in the day. I felt like a 12 year old again. Loved it!

[@Im_Ish]

I love how happy this episode made me.

[@DiamondFire]

Did the editor put emulated film grain/a film grade over the video? Looks different than usual. I like it!

[@Starkiller095]

Was looking forward to this show a lot when seeing it at celebration, looks really promising so far!

[@RedHeadKevin]

I want to find out that the dad is Willrow Hood

[@jackson857]

Loved the stories you told in the discussion guys.

[@jpwphoenix1701]

I loved this first episode! It’s got such a nostalgic vibe for those of us who grew up in the 80s watching movies like “E.T.” and “The Goonies”. There’s even a bit of music that’s very “The Neverending Story”. But, of course, it definitely got a major laugh out of me with the “Holiday Special” hologram!😁👏

[@muhammadhabibieamiro3639]

I have been looking forward for this

[@maxo.9928]

Genuinely impressed and excited about this show😊

[@thedarkknight2221]

What’s better than space pirates? Space pirates in STAR WARS!!!!

[@nerdwatch1017]

Seeing this makes either want a Nihli 4 season series from the high republic era. Or a series set just after VI with Hando as the main character and maybe if not other Outlaws games are planned bring in Kay Vess. Have this series cover all the major criminal pirates battling against the NR and being shown that the empire remnant and early first order behind everything there doing.

[@Kennia1998]

Rickkkk!!

[@KingTaishar]

The Goonies music gets me everytime.

[@HotDogTimeMachine385]

This is really cute. Lucas did want a children's show. Hope this one doesn't get as much backlash as the last one.

[@ジェノバジル]

Skeleton Crew has a lot in common with Attack on Titan. Wim's desire about explore the outside world is very similar to Eren Yeager. Also Farah's comments about the Republic (not the New Republic), the currency still in circulation like the Old Republic, the slightly unique culture in terms of transportation and droids, and the violation of the barrier in the sky and the ability to break through it all overlap with the humanity within the walls of Paradis island.

[@grizzfan08]

There was definitely a Utopian - Tiger Parent atmosphere going on throughout this episode, which was a bit of a drag. As an adult, it kind of brought the kid version of you back into the fold with school being a bore at times and kids wanting to be kids. Hopefully the next episode has more of that adventure feel to it.

[@scotthewitt258]

Hurry up with episode two!!!!! You'll love it!!!!!

[@EchanteDante]

THIS SHOW TRANSPORTED ME BACK TO WHEN I WAS A KID! Like when I was in Kindergarten or 1st grade seeing the OG trilogy on tv or The Goonies. The tone and the vibe is sooo good so far! I do somewhat agree with people’s criticism of the suburb aesthetic for the first episode but it didn’t bother me as much as some people. Though I do wish they would have tried a little harder with some of the things that look like our current world l¡ike the street lines, the tram, etc. But I think it was unique and an interesting choice. I hope this show keeps it up because I love these first two episodes. That lil elephant kid Neel is adorable.🥰

[@ras_alhim]

Star Wars Holiday Special you will always be famous

[@ketchup016]

20:19 gawd I loved Space Camp 😂 That was my childhood dream

[@omarpizarro7315]

You could sell the ship!!....hahahahhahahahaha good one!!

[@kimshlongunnhh9994]

Them screaming at the end took me out 😂

[@jackson857]

Such a great first episode!

[@NoahGarcia]

This was such a delightful show ❤

[@nathantroxel]

I love skeleton crew, i grew up with all the smblin movies .I can't believe the curcus, from the holiday special is in here.

[@Knightowl1980]

Yo Calvin’s bomber jacket is sick AF. I want it

[@johnnyblaze6667]

Lots of Fun. Dude bro fanboys are going to hate it but who really cares what they think 🤘🏽💀🤘🏽

[@jhfred]

This was so much fun!

[@FireQueenMyra]

WAVE SQUADRON back with a new reaction, I love how the boys were doing what we all did as kids playing with our toys and pretending to be Darth Vader & Luke Skywalker, ahh good times

[@jinxie712]

They are pretty much matching the 4 kids from Goonies. KB is absolutely Data. Wim is Mikey. Fern is Mouth. And Neel is Chunk.

[@darrius2300]

Happy to see Rick!

[@theawesomeman9821]

Was hoping you guys would react to this!

[@kandy1515]

Great first episodes.

[@lykan2]

Brutus is my new favourite character

[@germitch]

Been waiting for this!!!!

[@Hobodeluxe007]

my speculation is this. the great work is a new jedi academy. the barrier is to keep this planet safe from any one who might harm it. but there's something amiss here too. like how did this seemingly unknown location become the place where the pirate ship crashed?

[@jameswg13]

Omg I just realised something. The under secretary and others talking about the Great work. Surely they've been cut off since the high Republic then and the time of the great works being created like starlight beacon

[@1138Fallen]

While I really enjoyed it. 8 year old Grant would have absolutely loved this. Its a love letter to those great 80s kids adventure movies.

[@gianeliz22]

Loved both episodes ❤

[@rantalmore]

STAR KID IS AMAZING

[@pryex8565]

RICK!!!!

[@chuis2101]

The force is strong with the beards today

[@mrwatermelo50]

lets go its looking pretty good guys

[@Starbolt-81]

I got major Vault-Tec vibes from that society

[@Alvie713]

Digging the mystery vibe

[@bndl98]

It was great

[@jabarispyro]

HOW ARE YOU GUYS SITTING ON TOP OF SPACE???

[@lilypeterson4496]

I’m not sure, but I think Jude Law’s character is gonna be like the Long John Silver of Star Wars.

[@spectre-8]

Oh hi Rick

[@Eiglayn_Misthios]

Man. When Acolyte released, I stopped watching episode one after about 10 minutes and didn't go back for weeks. Skeleton Crew however got me to binge both episodes back-to-back. The amount of comments I've seen on other videos saying stuff like "It's too childish!" or "I hate the american suburbs setting!" Is just sad. These people will always find something to complain about.

[@alexkramerblogs]

LETS GO!

[@scotthewitt258]

That opening battle was gery impressive. BTW, the helmet isn't fooling anyone, right? I mean, we saw the trailers. They didn't even change his voice a whole lot.

[@AmazingChi]

The modulator was good, but the intonations/way of speaking are very distinct and difficult to mask (literally).

[@Wolfking99-x4r]

This is were the fun begins

[@LittleGalaxyBoy]

I knew there was something off when I saw the American-inspired suburbs. As a European, the American suburb are pure evil... no offense to any suburbs watching.

[@thedarkknight2221]

I get that, there are SOME suburbs that are kinda creepy. But in Maine where I live, the suburbs look and are incredibly pleasant, particularly near or along the southern coastline. Plus the best seafood in the world.

[@Kmbri]

Oh no this is a very interesting and debated take, that suburban america actually killed economic and environmental progress. I have a friend who is passionate about it and he has def made me think a bit differently.

[@call_rickey]

Suburbs that have a mishmash of architectural styles and were slowly patched together over time ✅ Suburbs built as huge swaths of tract housing in the middle of open fields off major interstates ❌ (In all seriousness suburbs are largely the result of white flight from urban areas and the GI Bill which many POC, especially Black people, were locked out of benefitting from and bear a large portion of the responsibility for the impoverishment of the American city and its population)

[@DarthCaedus7]

Is that little animal in the cage from Captain Eo?!

[@JS-ct3kr]

Rick!!

[@Bootcamp4]

Space Goonies !!!!!!! Absolutely love this first episode

[@jasonsacchi]

Watch the next episode of Skeleton Crew.

[@NelsonVlog66]

Isn't Skeleton Crew supposed to be set during the same time period as Mandalorean, Book Of Boba Fett, and Ahsoka?

[@katieee1203]

Fairly sure yeah.

[@kitfistosdentalplan1319]

So hyped. Wow this show is finally giving us something new and seem to be executing on the details so far!

[@soulstealer82]

it reminds me of treasure island

[@RedHeadKevin]

Does the Barrier keep things out, or keep things in? Maybe the planet is Sha Ka Ree?

[@scotthewitt258]

Patience. Spoilers.

[@heidifedor]

I’m sad that you guys didn’t react to Lego: Rebuild the Galaxy.

[@nomis]

GET THE PLANET NAME!!! It's important!!! ]

[@samcorcoran470]

I saw a Werewolf bording a freighter, his hair was pretty messy.

[@dragerdet]

I'll just watch the Grizzy and Knights of Melvin anti watch party

[@Do0msday]

When I saw the original trailer I thought it looked so-so, but a bit too childish. After watching this it definitely does have a childish feel to it...but the sort where it makes you feel like when you were a kid. This show definitely feels like Goonies meets Treasure Planet and I am all for that. The characters also don't feel like Disney trying to force something. That's been my main issue with the last few "Disney" Star Wars...the characters just don't feel like they belong and everything tries too hard. So far this cast feels like kids going off on an adventure. Other Disney Star Wars stuff tried to alter lore way too much whereas this genuinely feels like it's just its own little blip in the Star Wars galaxy. I'm sure the story will get bigger/deeper, but I don't think it'll get to the point where it could literally try to re-write canon events. I just want them to do Star Wars and add in fun stuff in its own little pocket-verse. So far so good because the first 2 episodes are really fun.

[@jameswg13]

wait were those Kotor figurines

[@ConnorEllisMusic]

Something changed on the camera? I don't know if you look better or worse.

[@masamune2984]

I DREAD this comments section. I liked these few opening episodes, but it’s either going to be the normal kiss-ass trolls who LOVED the Acolyte And the Sequels, and hate on everyone who rightfully VERY MUCH disliked them objectively , or the people who LOVED/HATED this opening to this series. I thought it was…ok. Positively meh. A step up. And down. Both. But god…there are 99% only shills or trolls out there it seems. So let’s see. Can Star Wars rise above the absolute gutter it’s in, thanks to current Lucasfilm? Time will tell. I have hope. But it’s likely a false hope.

[@Phoenix-ti6tx]

rightfully VERY MUCH disliked them subjectively not objectively

[@jollyrayda]

Don't agree with The Last Starfighter reference - that's about a single _late teenager_ following a call to adventure. This is about a _group_ of _barely tween children_ falling into adventure. I like The Last Starfighter. This... is not for me, just like all those 80's flicks about kid groups doing stupid stuff. Horses for courses and all that.

[@Jac2587]

It has been far too long!

[@ZackMuffinMan]

:)

[@Shloofi]

You see much better than acolyte
