    I like how they appear to have found good, affordable, CGI-based special effects for aliens that essentially digitize them but they look like 1970s/1980s puppets or suits, which just feels right for Star Wars.

      I think there's a difference between being cautious and being some all caps rage culture warrior that demands people be hung by their entrails for enjoying something they didn't, I mean if you include animated shows only 55-60% has been good,rest has been pretty mid, so of course you have be a bit cautious with your excitement about modern SW, which most channels were, although imo I thought I'd be a good show just because it didn't fall into the same tropes a lot of other sw media fell into

Thank you Alan for pointing out this series is primarily for children, I hope it ignites a life long love of all things sci-fi, space themed, fantasy which has enriched my life and will hopefully enrich the younger generations coming up.

    I was definitely not expecting the first episode to open with a huge pirate battle, and the mystery about what's up with their home planet is already more interesting than what The Acolyte tried to do in its's first 2 episodes. Also, I liked the nod to Andor when they name dropped Aldhani. Wasn't really expecting that to come back except maybe during Andor season 2.

    I've been describing this series to my folks as "Goonies in Star Wars." When watching it, I both agreed that At Attin looked a little too suburban for Star Wars and recognized my younger self in the characters. I was that kid who had pretend lightsaber fights and read a lot of history and fantasy books. I also remember the animosity between boys and girls, especially the kind of girl who thinks she's so smart and can talk her way out of any situation. This show brought me back to childhood. I also picked up on the Pirates of the Caribbean vibes in Episode 2.

  • @andrewlim9345
    @andrewlim9345 22 години тому +1

    Thanks for your review. Having watched part of the first episode, I had the feeling that At Attin is a lost High Republic colony that has been isolated from the rest of the galaxy for centuries. The reference to the Republic (not the New Republic) and Great Works was a clue. I read in the Wikipedia article that the series was originally going to be set in the High Republic era but that the showrunners decided to move it to the New Republic era. Even Star Wars Theory has praised the first two episodes, which is a relief.

      Depends what you mean by reviews. The critics from major media outlets loved those shows you mentioned, only after they were being aired did less positive reviews appear. As for this one, not surprised its getting good reviews, but its not for everyone. It's a kids show and that isn't what many people find fun. Oddly Star Wars has always been for kids, so I was a little confused why they spent so much money on this show to attract a kid audience

    • @afunkymonke
      @afunkymonke День тому +3

      Mando S3 just compounded the issues we started with in BOBF, the fact we couldn't get a single episode that season without Grogu by his side says it all. In my opinion they shouldn't have reunited them so fast, especially not in a completely different show that shouldn't have had Mando in it to begin with. Cobb Vance should have been the Mando role showing up to save the day alongside someone that he kinda stole his armor and wouldn't see eye to eye with at the start due to Boba being a prior enforcer for Jabba and probably causing trouble for people like Cobb and the others of that town. Instead they stuck him in a bacta tank and we have no idea if we will ever see Cobb come back.

      I'm not too familiar with the HR stuff, but that would probably make sense considering they kept talking about "The Great Work" which we haven't heard any other of the New Republic stuff mention before if I remember correctly. That sounds more like a high/old republic era thing, kinda like post ww2 era US. A by gone era that has remained in a bubble is a very interesting way to go about things, especially the fact they talk so much about the Jedi in an era where most still think the Jedi are urban legends or remember the stories the Empire would tell to try and keep people in line.

      Because it's Star Wars.
      I am fed up with people who criticise Disney Star Wars for no other reason than "Disney". I have enjoyed almost all of Disney Star Wars, except the sequel trilogy.
      Just look at all the detractors Andor got before anyone seen it, now everyone loves it - even those who hated it initially.
      Give it a chance. Wait till it's finished and then comment.

    I like the growth of the "pirate nation" I've always been interested in a 3rd party semi legitimate government forming out of the lawless and wild areas of the galaxy, who are strong enough to hold territory from the empire or republic. The Mandalorians seem to be forming such a group and you also have the pirate nation as well as potentially the crime families, although with Boba Fett not being continued, I doubt we will see much more depth into them. This could be partially an explanation for the civilian fleet from rise of Skywalker but I wouldn't want every project to be beholden to explaining the sequels.

    Was quite optimistic watching the first 2 episodes. Felt like a kid again. The serious older one, statistic sister, the scadery cat/elephat and the troublemaker. Light hearted direction that can allow kids to join and let adults broaden their understanding of the world. The empire fell, why so many pirates?

    It's funny to see Jude Law in a Stars Wars project b/c he was my first choice to play Anakin Skywalker in the prequels and the fact that he and Ewan MacGregor were roommates and close friends in London at the start of the acting careers. I think that Jude would have way better screen chemistry with Ewan and Natalie Portman than you know who..
