The Book Of Boba Fett

[ryanosaur]

Streaming on Disney+ 12/29/2021.

I know that most Star Wars kids from back in the day were immediately taken with the mysterious Bounty Hunter. I’m no different.
Having a show dedicated to him and the post-Jedi universe that this show and The Mandalorian populate is an interesting gambit.

It would be very cool if Disney payed homage to the old Star Wars novel where Boba Fett escaped from the belly of the Sarlacc in Tales From Jabba’s Palace, and a subsequent story about his post-escape rescue by Dengar in the Bounty Hunter Wars trilogy.
Alas, as Disney has chosen to distance themselves from that ‘History’ it will be intriguing to see what they do.

Hope it is as good as Mando. I am looking forward to it.

 

[Mark E. Long]

Iam looking forward to this one !

Only question is, where is Mandolorian S3? They're saying that Boba Fett filming has likely delayed it to '22.

I am presuming this to be a series a well?

Supposed to be. We'll see how far it goes! Hopefully it will play for a few seasons.

Just watched the first episode. It’s off to a good start, really liked it.

I believe it is slated to run 7 episodes through early Feb 2022.

I almost turned it off halfway through episode 1.

I thought it was slow and boring, like I went to a bad Halloween party.

I should just wait until the entire season is out. Then force myself to binge-watch. Maybe I’ll end up liking it.

Oh! This is out now, right? I gotta check it out yet.

Are they going to do a Mondo S3? I think they only did 2 seasons and now Boba has taken it's place.

Mandalorian is continuing. According to Carl Weathers, he began filming in mid-October. My understanding is that Disney is likely to air the Obi-Wan series after Boba. Mando should air sometime after that, later in ‘22.

Word has it Favreau and Filoni are lobbying hard to get Gina Carano back. I dunno if she will or not, but her firing had more to do with Kennedy's attempt to sabotage the success of Mando than any real moral imperative. Luckily for Star Wars Kathleen Kennedy has been removed from just about any creative decisions or control over the series. There is new hope...

Another one of these rare me and ADTG agree on movies/tv moments. It's more of a Pamphlet of Boba Fett.
I will try to watch a few more episodes but so far it's 5/10 at best.

Spoiler: Minor spoilers/ranting ahead regarding 1st episode only events

Clumsy parkour in Star Wars? Really? or Ninjas with electric blades or Boba Fett refusing to put on his helmet filled with money or not using his Jet pack. I could go on

..., like I went to a bad Halloween party.

They are BYOB. Your fault.

Hopefully it will get much better - like much better writing or much better directing or better acting.

I am not a hardcore fan of anything. Some people ask me what kind of genres I like. And my answer is, I don’t care what it is as long as the writing, directing and acting is excellent.

So far, Boba Fett has none of the above.

Man, if I have to be drunk first to like this series, then I will hate it.

I don’t even drink beer.
