nine-gear crow posted:I mean, I didn't pick up on this myself either until I saw this post, but after that scene where she tries to talk Krrsantan down, I can totally see it. I'm betting this also means the majordomo is her brother, and the two of them are running a massive con on Mos Espa. Yeah, ever since I read that post, the idea's been making more and more sense.

ok A Wookie rips off a dude's arm in a club and the club owner sighs, turns to Max Rebo and says, "Hit it Max" and the band starts jammin Show owns

I thought they showed the actual mayor though? Wasn't he the hammerhead guy in the 2nd episode? I wouldn't be surprised either though, it seems like that kind of twist would be par for the show.

They also said the mayor's a figurehead. Big Brained Boba never really bothered to find out whose. Also, who really sent the assassins? The mayor pointed out he had no reason to. And his attitude was very different to what we expected given how the majordomo practically begged Boba to come and kill the mayor.

Garza doing a great job of convincing Black Krrsantan that it's a bad idea to ruin everyone's day was going real well until she made a "mistake" that caused him to rip out an arm and had Boba hire someone the Trandoshan's hate so I'm on board with the Jennifer Beals is secret mayor idea.Hazo posted:I even thought Jennifer Beals would refer to the interspecies feud instead of the vague “you used to be a pit fighter” throwaway.

Also Beals character filling Boba's helmet with coins is a great way to ensure his head is exposed when leaving her bar.

Hazo posted:I’m curious how the Krrsantan scene played out to people who don’t know that Trandoshans famously love to hunt Wookiees, so BK had a racist drunken rage issue and wasn’t just hauling off on some random bar patron. I even thought Jennifer Beals would refer to the interspecies feud instead of the vague “you used to be a pit fighter” throwaway. I had no clue about the Trandoshans hunting Wookies for fun and just took it as BK being grumpy/drunk and looking to pick a fight. The Trandoshan seemed to be having fun and he was looking to ruin it for him. Would be nice if the sprinkled in even more of these kind of lore nuggets!

WhiskeyWhiskers posted:This is a really cool detail if you're right, but they also completely failed to capitalise on that poo poo, if so. So far, every subtle detail that led to cool fan speculation has been resolved in the most mundane an non-twisty way possible, so I'm almost prepared to take everything at face value now: Garsa just handed over the Santuary to Boba with no ulterior motive. The Kintan Striders really killed the Tuskens, despite Fennec's openly expressed doubts. All the Tuskens are dead, the female warrior didn't survive. The Hutts just left because the Pykes are coming and Tatooine is not worth fighting over. The rancor and its keeper are a benevolent gift, not a trojan horse. Sure, the show is fun to watch and nice to look at, and as a fan I'll watch anything Star Wars anyway, but I really really hope the writing will pick up towards the end.

Honestly the original rogue's gallery from Empire plus Mando makes a lot of sense. You got nostalgia, crossover, and don't have to pay anyone famous like Timothy Oliphant. Just a bunch of space monsters.

and just because I'm an rear end. The reason The Rancor handler/Danny Trejo mentioned the night sisters is he's dating old lady Ventress. yes she's still alive cause that book isn't canon (because marketing says so) and Ashoka needs somebody to squabble with.

It probably be a original model to sell toys. Also Padme's ship is way too big for one person to fly. I just hope it's also a hunk of junk that that's been patched over a dozen times.

Giving Mando the most oldschool spaceship in the entire franchise is a terrific nod to his Radar Men from the Moon origins. That's someone really trying to channel Lucas' instincts well.

Also, catching up on stuff from yesterday while I was in a migraine stupor, regarding the idea/theory that Jennifer Beals’ character is the actual mayor or main power in Mos Espa, I don’t dislike the idea, but I think it would be a fairly predictable twist. I like the idea of her being mostly separate from the mayor and the others vying for local control we’ve seen so far, but maybe she’s tied to or protected by someone else we haven’t seen yet, so maybe the remains of Crimson Dawn if they’re still around, or throw a reference to Black Sun or something else. Still, we got enough episodes yet that I’m feeling pretty good about how they have that all play out.
