When Wim first finds the trash crabs he mentions that they can speak so they are intelligent. I immediately thought of Qui-Gon telling Jar Jar that "The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. Now get out of here."😂
As someone who went through medical issues as a kid (brain tumor, several brain surgeries and a medical device implanted in my brain), the KB storyline in ep 6 hit close to home and hit hard.
I caught it. I wasn't expecting the ship to need to ditch the armor though. I thought it was just an explanation for how the ship survived crash landing on At Attin. Also, Tak probably uparmored the Onyx because he expected At Attin to have defenses that would try to shoot him down. Something the CURRENT DAY pirates might not be thinking about. Remember, only Neel saw At Achron's roof gun.
Was literally about to say the same thing. What we saw at the end of 6 was the true form of the ship. That was the Onyx Cinder, what we saw the whole rest of the season was just the armor.
@@tilarium2 I like to think that, as you said, the inner ship is the Onyx Cinder, the one that would strike fear into those who had known of it's tale, and the outer layer is what Rennod put on so that he could travel from port to port without drawing the attention of any police type forces in the galaxy. Like, well that's just a freighter, no way that's the Onyx Cinder. The Clark Kent, unassuming cover, to the Superman that is the Onyx Cinder.
As someone who has Crohn's (an autoimmune disease), a lot of medical devices attached to one's body, and MASSIVE energy issues, KB's storyline this last episode legit brought me to tears
@@jacka3914 On a more serious note. Even if you do have Crohn's or know someone with Chron's and Think you know all about it. You should know that it is different for every single person and can most definitely be debilitating. I've had to spend 6+months in hospital and that was just the last round. Been diagnosed since I was 10 and have had 15+ surgeries since then. Please go on and keep talking to me about how it 'isn't that bad'
The children in this series need some serious awards for acting because they do an amazing job of acting as kids in a situation that would make most kids wet their pants
As soon as the Ship Shed, I had a theory, that no ones recognized the famous onyx cinder because it's been made to look so bad. And the one we see now, people are going to recognise
I think there was another easter egg about how Wim assumest that because the Trash Crabs can speak, they are intelligent, which the opposite of what Qui-Gon says to Jar-jar Binks: "The ability to speak does not make you intelligent"
In the Dune book, Paul uses the Voice when he gave his speech to the Fremen. In the books, the Voice is very subtle and can be used in a way to make people think they made a decision on their own. Jod could have subtly used the Force on the pirates.
"Bilge Rat" is a traditional pirate insult meant to poke fun at pirates who work in the bowels of the ship as they are similar to the rats who live in the bilge, hence the term.
I think the writers are purposefully giving Jod names from the EU effectively making Star Wars Legends content meta to the current canon - like the exploits of this one pirate have been spun out across the galaxy so that somewhere kids know the story of Dash Rendar for example as a distorted take on actual episodes in Jod’s life.
100%. Or it's the other way around, and some of those Legends characters do still exist in some form and Jod keeps impersonating them to get out of trouble.
Hmm. Maybe with the outer armor built so it can pull off of the inner hull as a play/display feature, that would be pretty primo! Lego, I hope you're listening! 😁
The ship thing was kind of hinted at in episode 5 when the recording of Tak Rennod said something about how the Onyx Cinder was clad in armor. So it basically just had ridiculous amount of extra armor plating that they shed with the demolition sequence.
Probably didn't have deflector shields back then. Also, someone said if jettisoned when hit by a tractor beam, it might take the junk and let the ship go.
Maybe I’m so naive but I was gutted Jod turned on them but even more so in the next episode (which was the weakest) where I was hoping he’d somehow redeem himself as I really did have some faith in him how he took Win aside - in his own way - and how in the previous episode when he saved them he hugged Neel and pulled in Win at the same time to comfort him so it felt really jarring this current episode he’s all in with the venture to At-Atin. I really hope he redeems himself. I also think it’s interesting he never revealed his lightsaber to the bad guys… interesting…😊
Maybe he draws the line at killing kids, so when it comes down to that he prevents the pirates from killing them. But that doesn't mean he won't kill all the adults on the planet to get the riches that he wants to plunder. I hope they don't just let him go after he spaced the captain of the freighter. They let Long John Silver go in _Treasure Planet_ and _Treasure Island._
14:42 Rennod logs that he had the Onyx Cinder clad in armor at the end of episode 5. This sets up and explains the reveal during the trash incinerator escape at the end of episode 6.
in the next episode, one scene I'm betting on is the kids getting to At Attin and falling into the "auto landing" sequence that they experienced when they went to At Acryon (sp?). The auto-landing control brings them to a platform near the mint and they are greeted by an army of driods waiting to load their vessel with a million credits. My theory is At Attin was the central hub for controlling currency/inflation and the many analysts were responsible for monitoring all the trade markets across the galaxy.
I wonder if there’s a big overlap between fans of Andor and fans of this series. I think there should be, as these two series are great Star Wars stories from very different angles and different key demographics.
The trash crabs leading Whim and KB to Tet'niss was a very similar sequence to the spiders leading Harry and Ron to Aragog in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
In my opinion, it seems like rannod discovered at attin but died upon arrival. So I don’t think he had anything to do with at attin in any way, other than wanting the “treasure”.
You may be on to something. His ship was crashed and his loyal Droid was left in it with plenty of dead bodies. If he took control of At-Attin, he would have had his ship and SM-33 recovered. The only explanation where he gains power there that makes sense is that after taking control of At-Attin, the pirate then went to plunder and destroy all the other Jewel planets that knew of its location. Something goes horribly wrong on the last planet, so he sets the ships course back to At-Attin and give the final orders to SM-33 as he perishes. Knowing the legend, the Emperor names Operation Cinder after the legendary pirate ship that wiped out the Jewel planets. Most realistically, he destroyed all thw coordinates before going to At-Attin and the Onyx Cinder was shit down by the schools cannon before he ever had a chance to plunder it.
Zero Friends Again also describes the situation that the kids and Jod find themselves in during this episode. The kids are without their friends - Jod and SM-33 - thanks to Jod's betrayal, but now they have the ship again, shed of its past history, and have what they need to make their way back home. Jod lost his friends by betraying the kids and SM-33 being shot, and he doesn't even have the Onyx Cinder, but has bargained for the means to get to At-Attin. Both are stripped down to the essentials to get to the end.
Personally I think the ships shell was meant to fool others, the ship itself was actually a powerhouse but they disguised it and made it look old and busted. Also would make for a good way to escape the law by changing the ships appearance
I don't think them shortening SM-33's designation is a nod to anything. It's just how people refer to droids. "R2 instead of R2-D2, 3P0 instead of C-3P0, Chop instead of Chopper, BB instead of BB-8, BD instead of BD-1. Practically every companion droid has their name shortened for convenience/personalization.
I don't think Rennod would be an ancestor since he talks about it being an OLD Republic Mint. So, it has to be at least within the time of the Empire that he crashed there.
The Skeleton Crew of the title is neither the dead pirates nor the kids. It’s the people we’ve been shown on At Attin At Attin is ash. Only one town left. We entered the story at the end, not somewhere in the middle Unknowingly they’re the last workers left on an ages long project to strip At Attin of its reaources
I’m expecting a twist like this. Either the mines have dried or the community is the descendants of Rennod’s ship’s crew or the last frayed edges of a pirate “utopia” a la Uncharted 4.
Or they've been analyzing economic problems for a faction like the Banking Clan that helps give them a leg up through all the latest wars and centuries of economic cycles.
In E6 @ 12:19 when Jod is singing their pirate song .. the melody instantly transported back to Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986), when Cameron is sick in bed singing "When Cameron was in Egypt's land: Let my Cameron go".
Worth the wait :) 21:30 Think the Bilge Rats is a reference to Bilge water. Which is water that collected at the bottom of the old sailing ships. This water was smelly/foul and would periodically need to be pumped out of the ships. So basically calling them smelly foul pirates. Happy Holidays from NZ
Jod's speech is also shows he still follows his Jedi teaching a little, he could easily free himself and take over, but chooses the peaceful option of convincing them to join him rather than forcing them.
The Spa built on top of hidden treasure trove isn't a call-out to Caribbean resorts, it's a call-out to the restaurant from the Goonies which was built on top of the entrance to the tunnels that led to One-Eye Willie's treasure.
They get MASSIVE respect for building and using a practical model for that giant crab! They could have easily created it on a computer but they went the extra mile 👌🏻💯
You said tak rennod was stabbed and killed on his ship which we saw in the 2nd episode So why a few minutes later you believe he survived and took over att attin?
“Metamorphosis” (butterflies) would seem to be a theme this episode. I’ve noted the Onyx Cinder reminds me of a predecessor to the UT-60D U-wing most notably featured in Rogue One; especially the slanted aft form and engine configuration.
this was really well done! thanks for doing the 2 episodes together - glad everyone took time off during the holidays. I am really enjoying skeleton crew so excited to see the last 2 episodes.
The outer hull of the Onyx Cinder reminds me of how in The Expanse series of books they weld junk onto the hole of the Rocinante to change the ship's profile as a disguise to hide from the Earth and Mars navies. In addition to serving as extra armored plating, this seems like just the thing a pirate ship might do to disguise its appearance from authorities or to make the vessel seem less threatening when approaching other targets.
33:48 As the Buddha taught, a lotus flower (symbolizing enlightenment and awakening) can't bloom without mud (aka suffering, or the rough exterior of the original ship).
I know the mechanized trash drones dumping trash is a well-worn sci-fi trope in many different properties, but I'm choosing to see it as a reference to Blade Runner 2049 where it appeared.
At 7:37 look at the dance floor in the background. There looks to be a hovering cylinder of green liquid. This could be a Gallusian like Bosnok from SW:Outlaws. Heck, at this point in the timeline, maybe it IS Bosnok, famed Parlor owner, living it up at Taj Mahal. I'm curious if Bratric system is a play on Brat-Trick as in he is tricking them with these brats. Clever.
When Wim first finds the trash crabs he mentions that they can speak so they are intelligent. I immediately thought of Qui-Gon telling Jar Jar that "The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. Now get out of here."😂

I'm so sorry you had to go through that That sounds terrible! I Hope things are better for you now

We’re all here for you buddy!
I haven't seen anyone catch on how Rennod's log in ep5 saying "I have the ship clad in armor" foreshadowed the hull peeling away, heh
I caught it. I wasn't expecting the ship to need to ditch the armor though. I thought it was just an explanation for how the ship survived crash landing on At Attin.
Also, Tak probably uparmored the Onyx because he expected At Attin to have defenses that would try to shoot him down. Something the CURRENT DAY pirates might not be thinking about. Remember, only Neel saw At Achron's roof gun.

@@tilarium2 I like to think that, as you said, the inner ship is the Onyx Cinder, the one that would strike fear into those who had known of it's tale, and the outer layer is what Rennod put on so that he could travel from port to port without drawing the attention of any police type forces in the galaxy.

If anyone is till alive from that time.

Can we all just admit that Bryce Dallas Howard needs a Star Wars movie to direct?

Damn str8
Agreed 👍 👍 😊😊
We had a great discussion about invisible disabilities in the middle of this episode!

The true Onyx Cinder looks soo good. I hope they make a Lego set for it. 🔥
Hmm. Maybe with the outer armor built so it can pull off of the inner hull as a play/display feature, that would be pretty primo! Lego, I hope you're listening! 😁

These are probably the top tier episodes of the series.

Really good catches on some of the stuff the trash crabs were using. I didn't notice any of those other than the blatantly obvious protocol droid leg.

Having the Onyx Cinder look dilapidated reminded me of the Oregon in Clive Cusslers Oregon Files books.
Best episode. With adult & droid out of the way, the kids can bond & save themselves by helping each other & working together.
Why does no one call SM-33 Smee? He’s clearly named after Captain Hook’s first mate.
And certainly not named after the antiseptic ointment of the same name.
Personally I think the ships shell was meant to fool others, the ship itself was actually a powerhouse but they disguised it and made it look old and busted. Also would make for a good way to escape the law by changing the ships appearance
There was foreshadowing to the Onyx Cinder interior ship reveal in Episode 5 when SM-33 explains Tak Rennod had the ship armored up.
Wendell is TV ON THE RADIO’s lead singer
YES! I kept thinking thats the Wolf Like Me dude cuz I couldn't remember the bands name
Julie Ann Emery was also excellent in "Preacher"
I’ve been watching a lot of Ghibli so that might be why to I think the King Crab looks a little bit like Howl’s moving castle
Something I have noticed is that Silvo has only used his “force powers” on metal. I think it’s a pirate trick 🤷🏼♂️
I love that the ship is all wobbly at the end since it's not an experienced pilot flying lol
I don't think them shortening SM-33's designation is a nod to anything. It's just how people refer to droids.

No way that is the case

Skeletons in the snow. Wasn’t escape hatch. Resort wasn’t there when he built it.
The “Grammar rodeo” also had the wigsphere - the tall phallic tower, similar to the supervisors’ towers
Didn’t Obi Wan mention having a brother? I’m gonna guess Jod is a Kenobi.
Kelly Macdonald (Pokkit) also starred in "Trainspotting" alongside Ewan McGregor

When you stop at the right moment you can see the species of Tak Rennod. He is a Wequay just like Hondo
That might be my all-time favorite lightsaber hilt design. I might have to make a trip to Galaxy's Edge when it shows up at Dak Ondar's.
I know the mechanized trash drones dumping trash is a well-worn sci-fi trope in many different properties, but I'm choosing to see it as a reference to Blade Runner 2049 where it appeared.
SM-33 is clearly a reference to Mr. Smee from Peter Pan. I mean, I guess it could partly be Club 33, but that's definitely secondary.
Other channels have paused and zoom-and-enhanced the Rennod recording, and he looks like a Weequay.
12:33 he kept 2 i think caus he tossed 1 more to his former crew unless he found tht along with the other treasure in the cave but i doubt it
Amazing review like always

At Attin’s leader is Tak Rennod
I’m calling it now… yes, Tak Rennod is The Supervisor… and Neil’s dad.
@@SGT_VESno we already saw his father I think he's going to be an ancestor to win and his father.
Must be long-lived to survive for 100-200 years. Strange that he wouldn't better hide and clean up his old ship, though.
I love KB.
But in regards to the trash crabs, you should have referred to Qui Gons line that the ability to speak doesn't mean intelligence.
I'm confident Cthollops is a Priapulin. I used to get the Star Wars Gamer magazine and they were a featured species.
episode 6 was actually amazing
