Sorry but it ain’t Star Wars if it’s visually 90% Earth 🧐 wide shots of green trees, familiar buildings, distant California mountains, blue sky, cars, sidewalks, buses, trains 🤦FAIL… story may be fun tho

Even if they made the trees more alien? Blue or something and then tinted the sky purple? Then what is there would work. Tatooine and Hoth work because the settlements look alien. Coruscant works because the uniformity and scale is
beyond anything Earth- plus no trees or ground level streets.
I do love the show:) but hold to my take that Star Wars suburbs needed to be 30% less Earth looking. For me- the far far away aspect is lost visually when you stay so close to our familiar Earth aesthetics. The shots in the woods work much better. Totally hooked by story and filmmaking otherwise👍
Well I disagree. And don’t get me wrong- I love the idea of dull suburban life in SW- just not such a literal Earth color palate and shape language. It works better in close up- but for me, falls apart wider shots. Enjoying the story so far. My notes are only visual.

It's like having an opinion on Kaiser Soze 20 minutes into the usual suspects.
