Skeleton Crew Skeleton Crew 1.04 - Discussion Thread (Spoilers Allowed)

Wow. Who could have foreseen that Neel was the Senate?

 

Unlimited pachyderm power!!!!

 

I was surprised when the show broke the fourth wall to make a statement that inflation has resulted in the writers being a skeleton crew when they really wanted more in the room and this was what caused The Acolyte to be so bad. Meeting She Hulk in the offices of Disney though was a bit too much.

 

Somehow Kelnacca has returned.

 

I was really surprised when

Spoiler

we found out Jod was not a Jedi but a magician and the kids were then sorted by the sorting hat! 10 points for Gryffindor!

 

I thought it was weird when Jude Law revealed his full name was “Jod Na Na Na Na Na Na, Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey-Jude Wood”

 

I never expected to see Kallus running the meat craving station at the buffet.

 

I liked the Scooby-Doo chase sequence that featured the following song, but with the lyrics changed to Jod Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Jod Na Na Nawood

Spoiler

 

I just knew a Squid Head Tessek would show up as Davey Jones. Just didn't expect his locker to have the head of the Emperor Caracus.

 

That reveal by Tim Curry that he's the REAL captain Silvo while fighting Grogu was the icing on the cake.

 

Time for the Daniels. I hope Daniel Radcliffe's farting corpse makes a cameo.

 

That scene when Anthony Hopkins saw Neel’s face for the first time and shed a single tear was so moving.

 

I liked that At Atin turned out to the home planet of E.T.

 

The more I think about it, the more I believe the writers room were thinking “We need a name for Jude Law… Jude… hey Jude… na na na na! THAT’S IT!”

 

Another great episode. Nice little adventure. And more WTF is going on here.

 

The mystery deepens. "Initiating babysitting sequence" lol. SM33 took a terrifying turn at then end.

 

This show should be call Neel's Crew, it's more funny
Very simple episode, but SM 33 alone makes me asking more questions, and now in a half season close, it's a interesting series, curious for next half.
8/10

 

Did not rock my world as much as the first three episode. Pacing not as tight. Kids too cute. Babysitting bit went on a little too long. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it. Never trust a droid. Interested in reading your reactions.

 

This show is FANTASTIC.

Probably the most refreshing SW content since the prequels. Kenobi and Ahsoka are prequel love letters, so I love them as much as possible, and The Mandalorian was a much much needed fresh breath into the franchise in a time that it needed it, but Skeleton Crew is certainly the most innovative story we've seen in two decades.

1. At Attin
2. At Achrann
3. At Aytuu
4. At Arissia

Great episode. This one actually delved into a serious theme while also deepening the kids' characterization. Felt some real emotion created from this one. 10

Of course, another too brief episode with a clunky ending, but that's just LFL these days.

 

So the Captain came here. Saw the coordinates to At Attin and then destroyed it and his crew so no one could find it.

Each of these planets is trapped in time. Each seems like a carbon copy - same homes, same buildings, same tower in the center. They don't seem to know anything about the galaxy and they can't seemingly escape. Much like the citizens of At Attin working and following orders, these fighters are doing the same day after day. Unable to change the script.

I wonder what each planet's treasure was. Time to venture to another one, find the tower, and hope that At Attin's plaque hasn't been destroyed.

 

Not as good as the first three. The middle part was a drag. The ending was too abrupt, compared to the last three episodes, which felt like natural conclusions of their respective chapters.

 

And here's the money ball question....did these pirates go to the other Jewels Of The Galaxy so that they can destroy the plaques and make sure that absolutely noone can find At Attin, or did they go straight to At Attin where they crashed? Also, how did they know that At Attin is the one planet out of the 7, that has the treasures they seek? And why did the rest of them "get destroyed"? Were these planets social experiments? And At Attin is the one planet that succeeded where the others failed?

 

Absolutely loved it took a while to get going but once it did oh boy and deepens the mystery! I don't mind the short run time but man the cliff hangers make me scream gotta wait a week. Is there going to be a Holiday break till the new year?
