Synopsis
Four children make a mysterious discovery on their home planet that leads them to become lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy.. Jude Law in “Skeleton Crew” and other stars from a galaxy far, far away.. The holographic circus that entertains Neel’s young brothers is the same one that Chewbacca’s family watches in the infamous The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978)..
Suburbia in space?
The show felt unoriginal and played on too many tropes. Can’t we think of anything solarpunk at least? I was initially drawn to Star Wars for the magic, mystery, and lore.
Something surprising that defied convention
I don’t need endless shows so that Disney can profit from every corner of the galaxy. Shows are becoming more and more bland and predictable. This may not be comparable to apples, but The Penguin was a fantastic show in the Batman universe because it showed us something new.
It’s been so boring lately
I would love to see Star Wars give us something bold (even with new cinematography, new writers, etc.). If I need a hit of nostalgia, I’ll go watch The Goonies. “One Hundred Years of Solitude” is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month.
