Netflix dropped a new movie about a week ago called Rebel Moon and Kelly and I watched it last night.
We thought it was fantastic. I thought it was as good as Star Wars, and by that, I don't mean the last few (which I thought kind of sucked) - I mean I think "Rebel Moon" is as good as the first couple "Star Wars" movies. No kidding - seriously - I loved this movie. Can't wait for its second part, which is scheduled to release April 2024.
Rebel Moon uses the same "formula" as "Star Wars," and in the first few minutes, I thought it might be "just a cheap take-off." But it also blends in a "feel" of Firefly and has some 2000-era Battlestar Galactica elements.

Didn't the creator originally intend for it to be a dark spin-off of Star Wars? It seems like I read that somewhere. I haven't seen the movie, but it looks interesting.
It looks very Star-Wars-y and I can't wait to watch it. I don't know if it was intended as a Star Wars spin-off, but from what I've read, the director did pitch it to Lucasfilm before it was sold to Disney. I'm not sure what happened after that.
