A Critique Of The Book Of Boba Fett - This is NOT the way

[@TransformersBoss]

Boba Fett in Mando Season 2: “I work for no one, only myself. I will take up jobs that suit my own interests.” Boba Fett in his own doggone show: “nooooo don’t hurt my sand-people! Noooo don’t hurt my citizens! All I want is to be loved and respected by the people of Tatooine!”

[@JonathanRodriguez-nz9nw]

exactly, he was a pathetic, disrespected old man in his own show

[@LackingClover]

Which is crazy in itself, he has absolutely no connection to Tatooine other than he "died" there in ROTS

[@BearSonOfBear]

It could have been The Good, The Bad and The Ugly in space. Boba is Blondie, Cad Bane is Angel Eyes, the wookie is Tuco. They chase each other across the galaxy to the biggest bounty. Allying with and betraying each other to gain the advantage. Even that ending theme would have fit while Boba flew off in Slave 1 leaving Krrsantan with a rope around his neck. Instead we got Fenec Shand and a bunch of human muppets.

Dude Imagine if we got a good Boba Fett show. A show about him reestablishing himself as an amazing bounty hunter in the galaxy after escaping the pit. We could see him go to different, colorful planets and hunt interesting characters. Then, over the course of the season, Cad Bane starts to hear of his exploits and feels threatened as when Boba left, he became the new greatest bounty hunter. Then we start to Boba get hunted as the bounty. Eventually he faces down Cad Bane and they have a duel. Boom, perfect show.

One time, I fell from one of those pull-up bars you hang in a doorway. I was 27 and extremely fit and well built, hit the gym on an almost daily basis. I fell straight on my back from about 2 meters high and was out cold for nearly 4 minutes. Couldn't breathe, and my back felt like it had snapped in every bone. Mando is dead. No two ways about it.

I was definitely drunk😅. I had watched my girlfriend try to swing her feet up and hang from it by her feet and drop. I started laughing like crazy and my roommate wanted to know what happened. So my dumbass, instead of explaining it, tries to recreate exactly what she did and fell in the exact same way! Only unlike my girlfriend, I hit the threshold of the doorway with my spine on the upper end and took a lot of the shock to my lungs and ribs instead of on my shoulder and back muscles. So I was out for the count for a good few minutes before I started to recover. It was an extremely humbling experience, but fortunately it didn't do as much damage as it could have.

So if Mando was a Clint Eastwood western, when they were trying to decide how to do Fett, someone clearly suggested they use Dances with Wolves, hence the reason why Book of Fett felt more like Dances with Sandpeople. You forgot to mention that apparently the cyber punk kids were using all of the water they stole to bath in, wash their clothing and wash their scooters as they're the cleanest people in the desert - that and despite living in the desert, they're all paler than the Pillsbury Dough Boy. The Wookie beating up the Trandoshans at the bar wasn't entirely pointless as the two species are at constant war with each other so his attack was more akin to members of two rival gangs starting a fight with each other than a purely random attack - not defending the scene, just explaining that half of it at least had some lore and logic behind it. In light of how far from town Jaba's palace is, I want to know how Boba made it back to town so quick riding the rancor?

People losing limbs like they’re in an 19th century hospital. People being crushed to death. And so much more. But instead. All we get is… ooh cool flashlight. It’s fucking laser tag. They understand that their audience is on average above the age of 40 right? That they aren’t kids and can handle a little blood on screen. But no. We get bullshit after bullshit. Nonsense after nonsense. And they can’t even chalk it up to not having the writing staff(thousands of writers would kill to write even 1 canon episode let alone arc). They can’t chalk it up to not having the funding to develop this content. They invented a whole new set feature just for the camerawork. They can’t throw away any criticism. They are just lazy.

Boba fett is weak now….. thanks Disney

[@WilAdams]

The only way this plot could have worked was for the Mando to have been a female. Since being a bounty hunting female would have been rare--as the original Charlie's Angels TV show had the women in the role of private detective, something that was not common at the time--and writing for her would not have been difficult since they could have taken the Ridley Scott's Ripley path in Alien. Like him they could have written Mando (like Ripley) as a man, and then just switch the sex and NOTHING else. It is clear they could NEVER have written a Strong Male character since Disney in general and Lucasfilm in particular are not interest these days in producing Male Led shows/films.
