This certainly gives a better impression than the first trailer. It still looks like Star War is doing The Goonies / Explorers. ๐Ÿ˜„

It looks like a really fun adventure series to me, what I had given to get shows like these back when I was like 10.

Absolutely love the Huttese Major Tom cover, takes me back to hearing the Highway Star Belter cover in the Expanse.

I was thinking along the same lines while watching the trailer.

I'm on the fence about actually watching it though. I'll probably watch the first episode and see if it grabs my attention.

The music, in whatever that alien language was (not the original German) is a small stroke of genius...

For the rest of the show I have absolutely no idea what to think of it. It is all over the place, it looks great, feels like The Goonies In Space, but it's also a new take on a kids show like the Ewok Adventure movies and I have serious doubts that currently a Star Wars for very young kids will make it great again....

Perhaps in 20 years a group of folks will see this as their new Goonies, but that does nothing for the current generation of fans.... We do exist, no matter how stubbornly Lucasfilm is trying to get rid of us.

I do applaud them for trying new things, but the new things should come when you have properly and successfully rounded off the old things ... now it feels like Lucasfilm is just shooting randomly with new bits hoping it'll catch a hit somewhere no matter the costs, as long as they don't need to make "legacy" Star Wars.

Looks like a lighthearted space adventure, could be fun just to explore the galaxy.
