After the success of The Mandalorian, Disney+ and Lucasfilm have been churning out new Star Wars content like crazy, with lots more on the way. So it makes sense that they wanted to make a show about a badass bounty hunter in Mandalorian armor, because, well, that seemed to work well the first time? Thus, everyone’s favorite bounty hunter from the original trilogy is back in The Book of Boba Fett.
The Book of Boba Fett does raise some questions though. Like did he or did he not come out of the Sarlac Pit with his armor? Why isn’t this crime lord committing any crimes? Why did that one dude do such a weird spin move in the middle of a battle? Did this just because season 2.5 of The Mandalorian?!
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to The Book of Boba Fett! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

[@nahor88]

The show reeked of rushed development... the premise would have made a million times more sense if we got flashbacks of Boba Fett being a "cold-blooded killer" in his Bounty Hunting prime. The Dances with Tuskens was OK, but I fucking hate that it was the majority of the show. Clone Wars fans know that Boba started out as an innocent pre-teen that had to learn to be more cold-blooded. We're missing that middle section of his life other than the times he stood around in the OT barely saying anything and getting knocked into a Sarlaac pit by a blind man. I really, REALLY want to see prime Boba Fett appear in Andor, along with the other fan fav hunters like Bossk and IG88.

Exactly. If OG trilogy Boba had his own show as a crime boss, he'd be ruling with an iron fist and no one would have dared crossed him. Instead, he tries to be nice to criminals and gets stabbed in the back because of it.

[@heroicgangster9981]

It was barely even a show, it feels like there was several chunks of episodic development missing that is really needed for a Star Wars show. It was a show about Boba wanting to use his skills to protect people but he never even tries to interact or plan to protect those people with his step ahead wits. I like the idea of Boba growing from his prequel history, the show did not do that much at all.

[@Zeuts85]

I love how usually Producer Guy manages to retain some level of enthusiasm by the end, summing up with something like "Well it sounds like it'll be a blast!" but in this case he's just. . . "Well listen, I think it sounds like... some content. For sure." 🤣

I'll be honest. This could have all been solved with 1 additional letter on "The Mandalorian(s)" You could have made each season about a different mandalorian and thrown all the crossovers in you want and TBoBF would have slotted in perfectly with that. It would have been interesting to follow Mando, Bo, The Armorer, Boba, Visla and whoever else got introduced along the way. When one story finishes, move onto the next relevant character, hell swapping between leads like they did in TBoBF would have been perfectly normal in a series like that.

[@MiloMurphysLaw]

Or maybe just don’t make a Boba Fett series at all. It was really just pointless. If they had made Mandalorian season 3 instead, then now season 4 would be coming out in February, and that would be a lot better than ever having a Boba Fett show. Or, if they really wanted to have a filler show for “Mandalorian season 2.5” so that they didn’t have to waste like 2 or 3 episodes of Mandalorian season 3 building up to Mando and Grogu getting reunited, then here’s what they could’ve done instead: Make a 6 episode show (not 7) where each episode is focused on different characters. Episode 1 could be about Boba Fett, episode 2 would focus on different characters, episode 3 could focus on Cobb Vanth and also introduce Cad Bane, episode 4 could be about Mando, episode 5 could be about Grogu training with Luke and also have some scenes focused on Cad Bane to give him more set up as the main villain of the series, then in episode 6 Mando and Grogu reunite and end up helping Boba, Cobb Vanth, and the characters from episode 2 to fight the Pykes and Cad Bane.

You know who made The Book of Boba Fett, right? It’s the same people that made The Mandalorian

[@vullord666]

Or maybe just don’t make a Boba Fett series? I mean his entire character was pretty much just looking cool and barely being on screen in the OG trilogy. Not that you couldn’t do a Boba Fett series at all, it would just be extremely difficult. Even more so than Maul as Fett didn’t “die” until Return of the Jedi so he was more established as the silent mysterious badass. If it were done, it would definitely be better off working to fill the massive gap between the prequels and OG trilogy. I mean he was essentially a child when his dad died. I would have liked a clone wars style animated series focused on Fett that picked up his arc trying to kill Mace Windu and struggling with his morality among/basically being raised by bounty hunters. Then it could move into the fall of the republic/Order 66 which Fett losing his original will to live (like if Maul learned Kenobi died) and learning to survive as a bounty hunter. Then we could do a live action (or preferably still animated) or whatever of Boba Fett getting out the pit (preferably being rescued to humble him and serve as a springboard for character reflection/growth), learning of the fall of the empire, and having to choose whether to continue being a bounty hunter or not and where his morals lie. The biggest problem is this show happening without Fett getting an actual character (because he never had one). This show doesn’t write one and they didn’t really give him one in the Mandolorian. It’s literally just Boba Fett kinda doing stuff with some Mandolorian scenes sprinkled in.

I was actually really excited for this show. I was hoping for a deep dive into the underworld from the grizzled views of Boba Fett. Out of a lineup of the galaxy's most lethal bounty hunters they had to tell Boba Fett to not disintegrate anyone. That single scene set up the character perfectly.

[@kalwhite9598]
