Comment on Star Wars: Skeleton Crew (2024, creators Jon Watts and Christopher Ford)
SonicDeathTaco@lemm.ee 3 months agoIt sort of seems like the Star Wars version of the last 2 Ghostbusters movies. Which I didn’t hate, but also don’t really think of as good. They were fan service, and Star Wars has been way too over saturated with fan service as of late. There was so little of that in Andor and I think that’s one of the reasons the show worked so well. That and the fact that they actually put some effort and thought into the writing.

The angle I’d heard elsewhere was that this seemed like Star Wars: Goonies, which I think would make a pretty entertaining story. So long as the writing can figure out how to not make the kid characters so darn precious. For a Goonies angle to work, they kinda need to be some degree of little shits, but still endearing.
