Star Wars: Skeleton Crew wore its influences on its sleeve. Despite being part The Goonies, part Treasure Island, and coated in a sweet, science-fantasy shell, Skeleton Crew ’s best homage was not to existing Star Wars characters or stories, but to the joy of discovering the larger world of George Lucas’ galaxy through another person’s eyes.

Skeleton Crew, I think I may be loving the franchise more than ever. The new series has been one of the most enjoyable pieces of the galaxy, far, far away so far, and I hope that we get to see more of this in the future,
