The Book Of Boba Fett (December 2021)

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

What is going on with Favreau? There is something very fishy about all of this business surrounding the writing of this show. Is it even possible that the same person who wrote the rest of this garbage also wrote this episode? This feels a lot like a college kid who failed everything for an entire semester then paid someone to take his final exams and suspiciously got the best score in the class.

I literally had to pause it a couple times to react to an audience of myself.
I think we’re all just going to have to accept that Din is what everyone wanted Boba to be like if he ever got his own show, and it makes sense since that’s what the Mandalorian started out as in the very beginning anyway. And honestly? I’m okay with that. I like Din infinitely better than the Boba they’re trying to push on us now.
Also, folks who missed out on Heavy Infantry Mandalorian are going to be pretty bummed about it after this episode. I have a feeling that figure just got a lot more valuable.

Wish the figure had that energy shield.

That episode rocks so hard. I literally had to pause it a couple times to react to an audience of myself.

Reissue coming without the gun and with a wrist shield instead.

****, Hot Toys WOULD do that, too.

They’ll include the gun, it will just be $35 more with the shield.

@Hoody999 brought it up in the figure speculation thread but thought it was worth sharing here.

I know a lot don’t like Rebels but it has a lot of cool stuff in it, such as the lore for the Darksaber which was carried over to this episode. You need to be in tune with the blade to be effective with it.

The training scene between Kanan and Sabine is great.

If this had been Boba Fett in the elevator instead of Din, one of them would've broken wind.

 

[Spartan Rex]

Great episode!
That TIE bomber sequence was really well done.
The writing and quality variation from the rest of the story is completely inexplicable. So he made chainmail for Grogru?
Beggars canyon and womp rats..nice fan service.
Fennec:Boba wants to hire you.
Mando:Bounty? Muscle?
Fennec: Bounty. He wants u to find his mojo and bring it back.

Yeah, the mechanic is really annoying.

 

[DarkChocobi]

Din is literally a one-man-army figure right now with his Beskar armor and that OP dark saber, plus now with that modified and enhanced Naboo starfighter at his disposal. It is definitely a grave mistake putting Din in this show just to humiliate Boba even further

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

Mando Top Gun episode incoming eventually. Just waiting for Grogu to give the enemy the bird from the little droid port seat that they conveniently built for him.

Feels like that's exactly the point of this show. Tear down Boba to prop up their OC Donut Steel(s) even more.

And everyone clapped.

To be fair, Boba's done that to himself. How lower can he go?

PREACH. And it’s sad that it’s become Disney’s raison d’etre to tear down old characters in order to elevate new ones.
But it’s even sadder that at this point, in this show, I’ll take whatever pleasure I can get from it. The irony is literally lost on nobody that the best episode so far of The Book of Boba Fett is the one that Boba Fett doesn’t even appear in. How did that not occur to Favs and Filoni? Like, we have to expect that it’s purposeful at this point, right? Maybe even story related?

So Boba's not in the episode at all?

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

I think we can all agree that this "Boba Fett" show had no point or purpose other than to trash another legacy OT character and fill some time space on Disney plus. We should be watching season three of The Mandalorian right now.

Name dropped once, that’s all.
