This really should've been the first episode or second at the latest. At the very least it lays down his very basic motivation to become a crimelord: because they are terrible leaders and stupid while I am very smart. :ironicat:

I have plenty of credits. I just need muscle. If only I could exchange these worthless credits for goods and or services. I am Boba Fett: extremely smart crimelord.
Fennec also told him offhand that the biker gang definitely didn't slaughter the Tusken camp but he's just gonna murderize the entire biker gang anyway.

Boba is a living Dunning-Kruger effect and he is hilarious to watch.

Shrug?

Anyway, now I want an alternate take on that scene with Bib where he's like "Boba! I...I thought you were dead. By the way, someone broke in here and stole your ship last week and--[PEW]"

E: Oh, it's probably because Bib just kind of... kept Slave-I in his garage for like three years. Which, again, not entirely sure how that counts as a double cross because Bib legit thought Boba was dead, but something something protagonist centered morality, what ya gonna do?

I said it before - Boba is not a smart man.

I was really expecting him to circle back and "question" any survivors of the biker gang.

Did she though? Seemed like she was just expressing incredulity that they did, even though we saw all the Tusken tents spray painted with the bike gang's symbol so we know they did indeed murder the poo poo out of everyone.

I think shes just implying that someone is behind the gang, not that they're just loving around with Tuskens because Boba beat them up and took their...OLD bikes.

More like someone was upset for loving up their train and taking their spice. The Pyke Syndicate in Clone Wars were pretty bad dudes and for a second I was worried they were softened here.

Also, gently caress the gang anyway for terrorizing farmers and Toshi Station slackers.

Rewatching The Mandalorian S2, why didn't Boba ever bother to actually learn the Tusken's language? Din managed it at some point. Probably would have helped sell it a bit more that a long time had passed.

Erase the RR episodes but take some of the stuff that works and we got a good show. Boba is pretty drat dumb tho. :lol:

BESKAR GEAR SOLID

Mando approaches the FIRESPRAY. "Kept you waiting, eh old girl?" The guards have been alerted, the alarm has is sounding. Boba: "Fennec, try to remember the basics of CQC!" Fennec easily dispatches the Gamorean guard. Boba: "You're pretty good!"

They played those guards like a god damned fiddle!

I'm hoping that the 'hired muscle' they mention at the end of the episode is a future Mando cameo.

Oh and they are really trying to get good use out of those chrome scooter props. I kinda enjoy the idea that Tattooine has become home to some kinda hipster cyborg modding scene.



What do you think Boba's power level is?

Umwelt? That's the only 'word' I could come up with that looks like a word. First letter is G/U, second is Q or M, the third letter is 0 or W or O /shrug

I like how Star Wars graffiti is basic as gently caress, they don't have fonts in space??

Edit- holy poo poo, Umwelt is an actual word.

I'm giving this one a pass since he was partially digested and suffering from double sun heat stroke, actually.

I wonder if the people griping that he's too nice and friendly will be somewhat mollified by him wiping out two dozen swoop gangers with an air strike.

I feel like Fennec tried to explain how negotiations work to Boba and he sort of got it in that sit down, but really rushed backing down from the initial, 'lets form an alliance' position to the, 'alright, how about you just don't join in, in trying to kill me' compromise position.

I'm not even sure what crimes he's supposed to be doing besides taking protection money and tribute from people who are presumably doing crimes.

One thing I'm liking about this show is there is a LOT of diegetic music, something was a little thin on the ground in star wars. Before BOBF you could probably count on one hand the number of pieces in live action star wars.

"I'm gonna find my armor. Then I'm gonna kill that bloated pig who double crossed me. Take his throne."

Hard to imagine he's talking about someone else, though I grant you it's not impossible.
But that would mean the show is a lot more devious and subtle than anyone gives it credit for. Somehow, I don't think we're going to sit there at the end of the final episode feeling completely M. Night Shyamalaned and compelled to rewatch the whole thing in order to see it with new eyes.
