The Book Of Boba Fett (December 2021)

[Khev]

Let's all just take a moment to acknowledge that in one single episode Din Djarin made Kitster cooler than Boba Fett.

Wait a second, what if Mando *is* Kitster who was freed after TPM by a couple wanting a son and then rescued by Death Watch???

He always was a skeptical SOB about people building fast ships from scratch, lol.

I don't think we've ever seen it before, but it's really cool. Definitely inspired by a few other sci-fi franchises.


Looked like nukes almost, probably why they had to send in droids to do cleanup. They mention in Mando that the surface has been turned to glass.

The artictectural design especially how it was spinning when the light was shining against it in space really reminded me of the original Side 7 space station from the original mobile suit Gundam

I wonder if Faveru is a fan of the anime

Ties back to Rebels, where a lot of Mandalore is just sort of a plain wasteland where it had been green/forested.

Peacemaker can go to hell that monologue rant from Cena in ep 5 that everyone is talking about was freaking atrociously embarrassing at all levels.

A crappy actor delivering horrendously cringing lines of dumb meta dialogue.

Man that was bad.

Notice none of Boba Fudd's bacta flashbacks are from the OT!

What if part of the Sarlacc digestive process is that when it absorbs the consciousnesses of its victims the victims all begin to develop a bit of a hivemind, sharing *each other's* memories!!

Boba Fudd was just a random fat Mandalorian clone who melded minds with the REAL Boba Fett inside the Sarlacc and is now confused about who he is!! And for one brief burst on Tython his intertwined memories recalled the skill and competency of the real Fett but since then his original identity has been becoming more and more prominent causing him to forget the borrowed memories of how to use his equipment, fly Slave I, and so on. Hell even the name of the ship has already slipped his mind!

Head canon adjusted!

I'd say you're reaching but not even Reed Richards could reach that far.

If Mandalor was destroyed after ROTJ..maybe destroyers weren’t available in the sector because remember the huge fleet that was destroyed from the Rebel attack in the end. Maybe the empire didn’t have the fire power to destroy Mandalor at the time

The fact that Moff who isn’t a Jedi and the law of the saber won in combat must mean he was quite the warrior to have originally obtained it.

What's the deal if someone steals it or wins it unfairly?

Yeah I couldn't make it halfway into the first episode. Typical James Gunn "try hard" cringe humor.

 

[The Buffinator]

Moff Gidion must have some skill. If he was able to figure out the how to handle the saber without any problems

Well he presumably had it for years.

Yeah and unlike Mando, HE obviously knows about the Force, otherwise he wouldn't be after Grogu. Plus the history of the sword. Paz Vizla couldn't use it easily either.

Yeah I like that this last episode retroactively made Gideon more badass now that we know how difficult the Darksaber is to become proficient with let alone master.

I wonder if the fact that he's evil played a role in his being proficient with it? It is called the Darksaber after all.

Oh come on it's not like it's any more out there than the craziness that we've gotten so far, lol.

 

[The Buffinator]

But has it been confirmed that he won it in battle? If so I don't recall it.

Didn’t the armorer mention how there is some kind of bond with how the saber is yielded

Whistling Birds are expensive.

Oh like Mando has ever cared about that, lol.

Pretty sure it was during the height of their power, I doubt Imperial Remnants could have taken out Mandalore with such force.

I grant you it's not clean-colorful-Vespa-speeders-on-Tattoine crazy, but it's still off the charts lunacy. In other words, it has a 50-50 chance of happening lol...

Mando can always get more - he has connections...

I remember Moff fighting Mando with the saber. If you go back and watch it with the now knowledge of how it‘s not easy to control it, Moff was swiping Mando strong with it and he was using a lot of force . So he has a warrior background of some sorts. I doubt he just picked it up originally from out of the blue when the previous owner possessed it

 

[The Buffinator]

Yes, but I don't think it has anything to do with whether one is "worthy" enough to wield it. That's tied to the fate of Mandalore, not to the wielder's proficiency. I think lol...

I may be wrong but I thought it was lost after the Night of a Thousand Tears and therefore he may have discovered it after that?
