Skeleton Crew | Official Trailer
Skeleton Crew | Official Trailer
Get ready for a brand new Star Wars adventure. Watch the trailer for Skeleton Crew, streaming with a two-episode series premiere December 3 on Disney+.
Looks like an interesting setup.
The whole trailer didn't scream Star Wars vibe to me, but it's still a clearly Star Wars themed show. Probably because we practically never seen very Earth-like suburbs in SW before. Gonna be interesting to see more universe building from this point of view, I like the adventure type of show they are going for.
Much of what I've heard is comparing this to The Goonies, its peers, and its descendants. I feel like starting it off in an Earth-like suburb is a very conscious nod to that, and to remind the audience that we're supposed to see the wonder inherent in what can't help but be a very familiar setting for most viewers.
Doesn't mean the show will be good or bad, but in-universe, a planet containing at least one district with well-manicured plant life and large single-family housing is plausible, and as a bit of filmmaking, I get the intentionality. I also assume we'll be in more Star-Wars-y environs by episode three or so.
