Being exposed to the bowels of a sarlacc actually makes you fatter. This is canon btw. The sarlacc's digestive tract secretes special enzymes that are nutrient dense, causing any organic material that's been recently eaten to bloat in rapid fashion. This is a result of sarlacc evolution; the process makes makes the sarlacc feel fuller longer since it doesn't actually eat that often.CelticPredator posted:I’m not a fan. I watched it twice. Didn’t do anything for me at all. It's unabashedly anime as gently caress and I know you're not keen on anime so it's cool. I get why some might not vibe with it

Why is there a stormtrooper in the sarlacc instead of any of the wrinkle faced alien dudes Luke tossed in there?

Dumbass patrol got too close? Jabba fed some stormtroopers who tried to arrest some of his goon to the Sarlacc? The trooper's armor was decently corroded so they might've been in there for a while.

Dante posted:is there an actual reason why Boba Fett is now an old slightly fat guy? Like why on earth did they cast this guy? Is the implication that he was in the Sarlaac for years and years? I'm probably the minority in this opinion but I think angry looking bad fat guy ultra-violent boba fett loving owns and is a great interpretation of the character who was sort of a blank slate.

Don't get me wrong, I like the interpretation. But it makes little sense. About as much as Han gaining ten pounds in carbonite freeze. Or, for a more recent example, about as much as Luke not changing his hair and clothes in five years. But it's arguing and niggling about those things that shows we love them. If we didn't care, we wouldn't be talking about it.

Maybe those lovely First Order helmets. Real stormtrooper helmets were baller.quote:Its reinforced combat helmet featured an integrated comlink,[6] audio pick-up, two artificial air-supply hoses, and a broadband communications antenna powered by a single power cell. The helmet, affectionately known as "buckets" by Imperials but derisively known by that name by rebels,[8] featured built-in filtration systems that extracted breathable atmosphere from polluted environments

I don’t understand the family friendly crime lord angle. Boba Fett is going to bring a bunch of violent and corrupt people together with the power of ~*Respect*~ and turn around a plucky gun smuggling, alien trafficking, drug running organization to better terrorize the people of Tatooine? It seemed like the show even presented him running a protection racket on that casino at face value.

Working as a bounty hunter for Jabba resulted in Boba Fett being eaten. I'm sure that probably changed his outlook on life. Why go back to being a bounty hunter, working for someone, and risk the chance of being eaten again? Better to become the guy who lets other people get eaten.

And look where that got Jabba! And then the guy who replaced Jabba. That said, the showrunners would never have the guts to advertise a Boba Fett series where he spends the first couple episodes robbing space banks, then moves to a quiet safe planet to live modestly with his accumulated wealth under a mild-mannered assumed identity.

Ralph Hurley posted:My dude it’s like a stadium in there I see they went with the anglerfish angle (  ) of a smaller parasitic male attaching to the vastly larger female for the rest of its life. The tongue is also reminiscent of an octopus beak (along with the tentacles), although I remember the original version of the pit being more akin to a sea lamprey’s mouth. The entire thing reminds me of a bobbit worm, near-brainless worms that their only above-ground part is their mouth and grabbers. The rest of the worm can be up to 4ft long  Multiple stomach chambers weird me out really bad for some reason.

The fact that you become part of the consciousness is just a whole nother level of horrible I never thought I wanted to know about. Keeping you alive for a thousand years to digest you and becoming part of it is just something that both horrifies me and fascinates me. Probably one of the coolest things about Star Wars.

I also love the sarlaac. I loved the short story about Boba's escape which went into the consciousness stuff, and I always thought it was such a terrifying concept. Which is why I was so dissapointed that this episode made what should be the most horrific of ordeals feel no more than a minor inconvenience. I would have been very satisfied with a whole episode of Boba down there where he is put to the limit of his sanity, that way when he breaks out it would feel meaningful, like one Boba went into the pit, and another Boba clawed his way out. It could also account for his softer outlook. But, it just felt like they were desperate to get it out of the way. Maybe it would have been too dark and horror toned for a Star Wars episode but imagine images of Boba caught down there surrounded by the other victims, some fresh off the barge, others having been down there longer, all wailing in pain and terror as they realise their agony will last a 1000 years. Devoid of hope. Like being in hell. Scary stuff.

Use the Sarlacc as a framing device. It's all a dying autistic clone's dream as he is slowly digested and his consciousness merges with all the other victims. Every episode starts with Morrison looking more decrepit in the the Sarlacc pit saying, "I remember..." and then narrating the episode. Over time other voices join in and mingle with his, almost imperceptibly at first. The last episode of the seasons starts with "We remember..." The episodes also go from Boba's life as a bounty hunter to stories about other people that ended in the pit. Sometimes played/see by the viewer as Boba but increasingly not.

Yeah the Sarlaac is absolutely terrifying and the show treating it as just a slimy hole which Boba fell into that slightly inconvenienced him for a few minutes is a super missed opportunity. Like you said it should really have been an experience that fundamentally altered him, causing him to reflect on his life as he's struggling with delirium that lasts for at least weeks. I mean yes it's cliché writing but having him then emerge at the end would really feel like this is the birth of a changed person.
