This ain't the Boba Fett they introduced in the Mandalorian... Fett literally shot Bib Fortuna in the face in The Mandalorian but in this show, he's just soft & weak.

In episode one of the Mandalorian we get Mando cutting a guy in half with a door within the first two minutes or so.

Dude... It's STAR WARS. STAR WARS is for kids! May I remind you that literally in those original 3 movies, all we got of Boba Fett is him getting his ass kicked and just sorta looking menacing in the background. Some of ya'll need to remember that kids need entertainment too, and not everything needs to be about "Star Wars being more gritty and adult", that's actually the last thing I want from it.

[@ge2719]

Boba fett seems naive as hell in this show. He leave the sand people alone to go collect money and the people he thinks are capable of protecting the train get wiped out by the snall biker gang who dont have bikes any more because he took them. then he just thinks he can become the new mob boss, but he doesnt do anything to protect anyone or prevent any petty crime or even keep himself protected. He sleeps in a bacta tank with no guard. Hes just so stupid.

[@batalorian7997]

Can't really blame Boba for the raid on the Tuskens. It's not like he knew how big the biker gang is or if they would bother targeting the Tuskens. Tuskens are no push overs. They have been known to give people serious problems. They are also known to be great sharpshooters. They sniped Pikes on moving train from a distance. Tuskens really didn't need Boba babysitting them

It really is weird - in “The Mandalorian” Boba is a total badass and so is Fennec, but in His Own Show Boba is just so incompetent, and is so utterly passive (I get it rule with respect, but barely winning any of his fights by skin of his teeth w/ help from his bodyguards doesn’t rouse any respect), thus making Fennec carry all of the weight and is the one with actual “balls” to get the job done. Boba totally “died” in that pit, whatever crawled out was humbled by the Tuskens and the writers elude that Boba is still a harden fighter, but The Book of Boba sure as hell shows me otherwise. Maybe he should just leave the whole underworld thing and just hunt remnant Imperials, he does a much better job at that then trying to play Daimyo.

It's just so weird that Boba is only starting to recruit goons now. I know he used to be a bounty hunter but he's worked for criminals before, so shouldn't he already know that he needs henchmen to actually run a criminal organization? If he's going to protect his territory, he can't do all the fighting himself, his enemies have henchmen and they can attack more than one place at a time. Also, the Vespa gang has to be set up to for slaughter. They're a bunch of punk kids, how are they going to stand up against actual criminals with blasters and ships who have no problem murdering people that get their way? And Boba just recruits them without seeing what they can do first? If a gang recruits new members, don't they need to know if the new guy is competent? Don't they need to know if the new guy is good at fighting or stealing or spying on rival gangs so they can put him to good use?

[@V.XIII_Ultra]

And isn’t it bizarre that no one seems to know who he is (except for a few explicit call outs)? You would think people would already fear his name.

I see where you're coming from. Personally I think they're really afraid to touch on the more violent half of Star wars. Boba Fett is a crime Lord and before that he was a hired killer.

I think the vespas would have looked fine.... on Nar Shaddaa! Also, Vader killed, no, slaughtered the entire Hutt council not too long ago, so the Hutts are weakened at the moment. They are certainly not picking a fight with Leia and the New Republic.

[@tyv1383]

Yeah, it would have looked far more natural in the urban city type areas lmfao

[@Deathsucces]

When that's the case, that the Hutts are in a weakened state, then maybe that's something they should have mentioned in the Book of Boba Fett. I hate when movies or TV-Shows don't tell you such crucial information for the story. You can't expect everyone to have watched and/or read every important sorce material. The understandability of a story should be measured by the information given within the story.

[@mucknstrunz]

The vespas look like they belong in Spaceballs. I couldnt believe that this was done seriously.

[@PotatoesFromSaturn]

I completely agree. If Boba went off planet to Coruscant to deal with the the twins & happen to run into these guys & brought them to Tatooine.... that would've worked waaaaay better. Either Nar Shadaa or Coruscant would've been perfect. These guys definitely don't belong on Tatooine.

[@michaelbergklint8839]

I know we're only 3 episodes in, but I'm gonna be a bit cynical and say this series will be an afterthought in the end for most fans. The tone of the series is all wrong and it's not something you can fix with a few more episodes. The overall concept is solid, but Boba should have been written more like an underworld mob boss as that's the role he's attempting to fill, not some benevolent usurper who wants to solve everybody's problems. Mandalorian borrowed influences from spaghetti westerns, this show should have borrowed from everyone's favorite mafia films.

@@brianbagnall3029 I don’t know for sure but I’m guessing that guy has a local monopoly on water. One, its Tatooine so water is a valuable commodity that everyone needs, two, he says that he is the middle man for the vapor farmers, and three, if you think monopolies wouldn’t exist on a crime ridden backwater then you are incorrect. A vapor farmer trying to undercut the monopoly pricing would probably get thugs paying him a house call. Sometimes there is no competitive option

[@jasonhernandez9023]

I think what annoys me the most with this series is how, again, they try to cater to "modern audiences" instead of actual Star Wars fans. Lucas's universe is vast, yes, but it has lore-built rules, so to speak. The "Teenage Cyber-Bikers from Outer Space" is just as slap-in-the-face as turning one of the most feared Bounty Hunters in the galaxy into some would-be benevolent crime lord. Dulling the edge of Boba Fett is like giving your teenage kids plastic scissors because you're afraid they'll cut themselves otherwise.

I’d have to seriously disagree with the sentiment of lore built rules. It’s one of the reasons why Red Letter Media was so spot on with their opinion that anyone who does new Star Wars is fucked, cause Star Wars is just aesthetic. At St! Lightsaber! Stormtrooper!!

[@batalorian7997]

@@DeathMetalThrasher cyberpunk the game doesn't have anything to do with those characters. Not even an inspiration. Cyberpunk genre has been around for decades and cyborgs have also been in Star Wars before. The problem is that those characters are a bit out of place and their prosthetics were kind of useless. The writing was also bad

[@cooloobahn112]

What would've been really cool in the first episode is if when boba Fett was attacked, he flies up and burns all the assassin's. One survives but is badly burned. So boba signals to the guards to get the badly burned assassin to that healing tank thing. Then some exposition untill the assassin is able to be revived enough to talk. Boom. Hundred times better already.

[@AbstractM0use]

I'm still hit and miss on this series. I get that Fett is on a different journey now after his near death experience post-sarlacc. But, it's getting too far from his core character when he takes lip from street punks without some sort of rebuke to correct their ways. "No disintegrations" as Vader had once said, implying that Boba didn't play around. The vespas looked too clean and too much like team Voltron or the Power Rangers for my taste, and they moved too slowly. Lucas always made it a point to make Star Wars vehicles move very fast. Danny Trejo bringing in a new rancor was awesome, though. However, being that this is on Disney, we'll probably never get to see it do anything but be a big puppy dog.

[@jollyrayda]

Only because it has bugged me for years - I always heard "No disintegrations" aimed at ALL of the bounty hunters, Vader just says it to Boba because they have an established relationship so it makes for good theatre. I never actually believed that Boba Fett would have ever tried to collect a bounty on a disintegrated corpse, didn't seem to fit with the "competent bounty hunter" vibe.

[@AbstractM0use]

Boba's father Jango was a badass, used many of his awesome weapons like the Flamethrower, Rocket Missile, had his badass dual wielded blasters, poisonous darts, so much more, every clone was Jango but meant to follow any orders given to them, Boba is also a clone but modified to be just like any other human being, no rapid growth/ageing. There was this PS2 game called the Bounty Hunter that you play as Jango and it's a story that happens before Star Wars 2 and how Jango got to take part in the whole cloning program, not sure if it's canon but to me it is, one of the best games I ever played.

[@yopopopo]

One of the greatest star wars games ever. A true gem that definitely deserves a remaster

[@godofvectors557]

If you read the comics of both Jango and Boba it makes this show even more unforgivable. Jango for a short time was mandolore the ultimate and Boba nearly become the ultimate. They took down so many opponents that I could see jedi get wrecked from . There is zero reason anything that went wrong went wrong . This is why canon is something I don't count as a actual thing . Because it's a excuse when you out stuff from canon to say oh that never happned .and yes that game is awesome and not canon which is why I say the use of the word canon is a excuse company's use to only make things count when convenient . If people like this show that's fine more power to them . I just don't see this show turning around its 3 episodes in and he's done almost nothing combat wise this whole 3 episodes.

Most iconic Boba Fett line was Vader's "no disintegrations this time" While Fett stands there leaving the impression Fett is harder than Vader. Here in this show he hasnt done anything hard or badass, and instead relies on Fennic, who seems to be the devil on his shoulder. Also, why are the cyberpunk kids who've modified their bodies with expensive modifications the ones complaining about income, if anything they would do it for fun or as a competitive gang, not because they're thirsty.

[@Hanoua2]

yeah it should be either 1: they're poor and have no credits, so they need to steal in order to survive, but their look and bikes makes no sense. 2: They do it for fun so it would explain their gear and bike being so clean and colourful... but even then they don't make sense on Tatooine

The problem wasn't the actors. The girl is Sophie Thatcher and she is good in Yellowjackets on Showtime.
