Skeleton Crew trailer features a very near future, Earth-like environment. Getting children’s movie vibes, like ET or The Goonies.

Honestly dunno about this one.

The origin of the Jedi was always something a bit obscure in the older Star Wars material; like the really early events of 'the galaxy' were of dubious canon (like I think there was a comic book about how the humans in Star Wars come from Corellia, founded by someone called Carl who came from Earth through a space-time portal... which was crap).

Weirdly, The Acolyte has affected my desire to see Disney tell more Jedi stories, because I felt that...

->Open Spoiler<-

... the story was shaping up to be something I've always wanted, i.e. something which looked at the Jedi through a critical lens, making it clear that many people disagreed with the way they basically kidnap children and press them into a religious order.

The old EU stuff, particularly KOTOR, portrayed that many people in the Galaxy basically saw the Jedi and Sith as the same; both of them religious nutcases who kidnap children and use their powers for their own ends. Jedi weren't seen universally as a force for good.

In The Acolyte they came down to the Jedi's mistakes over the girls as the actions of a few individuals, and kinda plastered over the larger questions.

I get concerned that Disney, with all the Jedi merch they sell to kids, would never make something that gives the Jedi further moral ambiguity, and I'm not sure how a greater exploration of their origin can work without that.

It's for kids but some of the visuals feel like they veer harder in and out of SW style which feels odd
