@@kingoffriesthekingwillrise1701 I'm anticipating the future. Since they have a 100% consistent reaction rate to fans who dislike what they've done to star wars, I have little reason to imagine they will veer from their destructive path.
The problem is that today's kids aren't into what 80s kids liked, so this is trying to capture the youth of gen-x nostalgia. It's entirely the wrong demographic.
all these things seem to try to capture the 70s and 80s nostalgia at best, following the footsteps of that netflix show. So the demo is still on the older gens
It’s not even Stranger Things. What made Stranger Things the better homage is, unlike 21st century kids in pop culture, who are portrayed as lovable, rambunctious little scamps, they were foul mouthed, argumentative, imperfect, but still genuinely good kids (I can’t see any of these kids calling one another “penis breath”). This is more like The Little Rascals in space. And even THAT had a bit of an edge.
It's like Disney has willfully gone out of its way over the last decade to deliver the complete polar opposite of anything anybody ever wished or hoped for in future Star Wars.
@@ChristopherNealBUSHIDO49ERS Just in case you aren't familiar the Frank Gore is most likely a reference to Drunk3PO. If you know you know; if not then you have missed out on some funny channels.
Star Wars? Props from Amazon + Dad in glasses + 80s Music + weak and timid male lead paired with rebellious and adventurous adolescent girl boss (whose name I presume is Mary Sue). Nope. Not even if I was 12 again.
100%. Black dad with glasses OBVIOUSLY means he's a "scientist" so super smart. Smartass girl who is totally in charge and better than everyone else. Kids outsmart hardened criminals. Might as well call it Star Tropes.
"Slapped the starwars brand on it" this is how I feel now. Disney isn't making Star Wars movies or shows. They are just making shows then slapping the logo on it. Forever not canon for me, still love the EU.
If Disney did a kids show about Star Wars fans going into space with aliens as an homage to the '80s and it would be fine. Pretending this is Star Wars shows what they think of the property.
@@rayname908 I have the feeling that Skeleton Crew actually started out as a group of kids from Earth being accidentally transported to the Star Wars galaxy, and Lucasfilm decided that they should be native to the Star Wars galaxy instead... and made no other change whatsoever. If you look at it that way it makes a lot more sense.
It feels like Star Wars in the same way that the Star Tours Disneyland ride felt like Star Wars. It's a fun little side-quest. I can't complain. I'll probably watch it with my nieces.
They're plastic chairs made in China. They're for sale on several sites under several names. I found them as cheap as $6 apiece when bought in bulk direct from China.
I think people have forgotten that Star Wars is made for kids. Always has been. This isn't Andor, of course. But it already looks way better than the Acolyte, and it might just make Star Wars fun again.
Star Wars in name only. We have now moved into the "just add the Star Wars name to some other idea and pretend it's not a cash grab" phase of the death of Star Wars.
I am sick to death with Disney continuing to defile the corpse of what was ones my favorite franchise that they murdered in the first place! Disney will never get another dollar from me!😡😠🤬👺
They should have just used Maz Kanada, she wears glasses because she has tiny eyes. But a human wearing glasses in the Star Wars universe just looks stupid.
The song isn't from Devo, but you have the right time period. It's "Major Tom (Coming Home)" by Peter Schilling, and it's either the original German version or a new version in Huttese; I can't hear the lyrics well enough to be sure. The English language version of the song was popular in the U.S., way back in the early eighties.
Disney has made me so cynical that were I a parent I would watch this first before I got fooled into the “kids show.” This is new Disney. An untrustworthy duplicitous Disney. They can show what they want in the ad and I’m still waiting for the other shoe to drop. Disney made me this suspicious. A responsible adult needs to review it before some kid says “Mommy, Daddy, why was that man smearing peanut butter on that lady?” 😂
@@TinaBiebe So good! Disney would smear peanut butter on someone 😂. I’ve learned not to watch it before my kids…. let others watch and review if there is peanut butter involved for me.
Even the version of major tom is horrible wtf poor John Williams all that beautiful music her wrote for Star Wars and the only thing you hear of it these days is the loud boisterous trumpet blast that you recognize but they never play all of it so effin dumb Disney and Star Wars! R.I.P.
I first saw Star Wars (A New Hope) as a kid (11) at the movies in 1977. That's what kids watched in the 1970s. I hate this sort of "kid's show" tbh, and I always have. These sorts of show look like what an adult "thinks" kids like. It looks really stupid. If this was the first Star Wars in 1977, I would've passed.
Hasn't it always been that way? In Star Wars lore they call the language "Basic", and I assume it's just a standard for interstellar commerce or something. Kind of like how English is the international language of aviation in the real world.
@@faynarawn4164 umm no? Ewoks, Chewbacca/Wookies, Jawas, Jabba the Hutt and most of his entourage, Watto was bilingual and also talked in huttese, robots like R2...

Skeleton Crew reminds me a lot of Asimov's Second Foundation, specifically the Arkady storyline. The beach planet in Andor also seems inspired by that. Famously, Coruscant was inspired by Terminus, from Foundation.
If it started as actual Earth with the kids magically transported to Star Wars, it'd be 80% better. Having 80s suburbia planet in Star Wars was a bad decision.

There's never been a need to do a 'kids' Star Wars show or film, Star Wars has always been a cross generation franchise. I saw EpIV as a 4 year old and loved it from that day on. This new show just looks awful.
I had a pre-senior moment. My volume was down too low and I thought in the epjsode intro you said “galaxy glue” instead of skeleton crew. I then thought I’d much rather see a movie about galaxy glue (if you know, you know) than to watch more Star Wars schlock. 😂😂

This show is more concerning than you think. If this does well Disney will just do more of it because it’s a hit and think that is what the fans want, killing the brand further.

Now Disney Star Wars and shill media can say fans hate children.
"It's working! It's WORKING!"
They already have
They’ve used my people, women, and the LGBTQ community as criticism meat shields. It’s time for the kids to step up and take one for the team.
Finally!
Best coping mechanism Disney has come up with is using women and children as a shield against criticism, it’s fool proof! 🙄
Hire some big names ✔️
Call it star wars ✔️
Call your fans names for hating it ✔️
Rinse, repeat ✔️
Also have a budget of 150 million but actually spend 500 million!! 😅😂😅

"This is not Star Wars."
Perfect summation of everything Disney Wars. Nothing else need be said.

Nah, I don't that's it. My kids loved Stranger Things. Skeleton Crew lacks any Alpha male boys, and that's why this will crash and burn.
The original song is “Major Tom” by Peter Schilling and the show is Stranger Things in Space

Remember when aliens in Star Wars actually sounded alien? The alien voices here sound way too human. Looks more like Marvel than Star Wars.
