The Book of Boba Fett (spoilers)

[Zardnaar]

Apparently the gladiator is from a comic book.

Was ep. 2 the first reference to there having been seas once on Tatooine? It's not a detail I remember from elsewhere? (even if it's a myth of the Tuskens).

No, that comes from the videogame Knights of the Old Republic. The planet was once lush and fertile, with large oceans. The Rakata of the Infinite Empire ruled it in ancient times, but when the native population rebelled, the Rakata glassed the planet, rendering it nearly uninhabitable. The Tuskans are the descendants of those few of the native population who survived.

huh. thanks.

Aha… so the twist for this show is “post-colonial Western”.

Much stronger second episode. Once again, I shall delay un-subbing from Disney+…

A while back there were plans for The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, and Rangers of the New Republic to have a big crossover event, before a certain actress got fired, and likely got Rangers cancelled because of her firing. I wonder if The Book of Boba Fett has taken the place of Rangers of the New Republic in the plan, and once we get the Ahsoka series, we will still get that team-up event? Mando, Boba, Ahsoka, and their related cast all going after Thrawn maybe? I would say needing to go and rescue Gorgu from the destruction of Luke's new Jedi Temple, but that does not happen for another 20+ years after the current events in the show.

I really hope that Disney doesn’t confirm that Kyle Ren killed Grogu when he attacked Luke’s temple. Maybe Luke (or Din) will take him back to his home planet instead!

I thought the first 1/2 of episode was good but 2nd part dragged

few thoughts
-is it me or is boba short?
-he’s in full armor and yet I’m not getting the he’s intimidating vibe.

Book of Boba Fett delivers so far. Really liking the Tusken raider flashbacks.
