People complaining about the Power Ranger biker gang remember in ROTJ Lucas replaced wookies with little teddy bears to appeal to the kiddies and sell more toys. This kind of thing is as Star Wars as it gets.

And it's possible that nearly dying changed his life outlook and made him more chill. The flashback PTSD dreams support that.

Did you see how he was in the mandalorian just after getting his armor back?

That was shortly before the current timeline as there is a 5 year gap between when the flashback started and the current time.

How he was then is what people expected and we got this Boba just a short time later.

ok episode 4 was definitely better than 3, i'm looking forward to the next one

So is there a reason he was looking for his armor in the sarlacc pit when it was the jawa's that took it off him unless when he woke up and they knocked him out it made him forget?

It was nice to see the blood feud between the Wookies and Trandoshans still going at it.

I was scratching my head at that as well.. I can only assume he forgot.. otherwise he did it so we could see slave1 vs the sarlacc

He's right, you know. Boba Fett used to be a badass bounty hunter. Now he's a middle aged politician.

The dreams of my inner child have been crushed.

A show like Cobra Kai is an example you can bring back an older character from the 80's like Johnny Lawrence and still make them a badass. If that show was given the Disney+ reboot treatment, Johnny would have been a tax accountant living in Idaho or something.

Episode 4.

"Find other banthas. Make baby banthas"

They explain his change in worldview in the last episode.

Meh, it’s not quite that bad, but it’s fair to say that Mando has more fans than Boba at this point (and Django was definitively the best Fett.)

I like the show’s pacing because it really lets you take in the scenery around Mos Espa and the Dune Sea. It’s a good way to unwind from a long day with a stiff drink or your choice of cannabinoids. But I do feel like this is a stopgap fan-service season before the Mandalorian picks back up and Obi Wan drops. Basically, it’s Disney pushing mindless content so you keep up with your subscription.

So did they accidently air an early episode of Mandalorian season 3 instead of the normal series?

I am guessing baby yoda is getting a beskar ball like from the razor crest it loved unless all the rings they showed it's going to be a tiny suit of chain mail.

Spoiler

https://newsexpressus.com/news/ente...ained-naboo-starfighter-podracer-connections/No, it's an episode that follows after season 2. He visits Tatooine so he can get a replacement for his starfighter, visited by Shand to be recruited as muscle/help Boba Fett, with plans to visits Grogu.

I guess I'm coming around - episode 4 wasn't all that bad. Finally.

I agree! I actually look forward to this week's episode.

Episode 5 was good. Mainly because it wasn't about Boba Fett.

Spoiler

By the way, Mando's new ride kicks ass!

 

[brianmanahan]

ok now that was good

 

[UNCjigga]

ok now that was good

The best episode of Boba Fett had no Boba in it. LOL.

Also, for those bemoaning how soft Boba’s become, Mando going darksaber berserker in a meat locker in the first 5 minutes should put to rest any debate over who wears the armor better!

 

[brianmanahan]

mando is so wizard

This series seems to have a lot of trains in it. Did any other Star Wars instance have trains?

Solo was literally a train heist Western in space.

I'm not trying to cut down the newer movies too bad, but I meant like real Star Wars movies. All those vehicles were space-ships, speeders, or rustic ground-crawling war machines. I just didn't remember any trains.

It's just funny to see the scene where Mando is in the city and a train was passing when the other vehicles were different. Makes me wonder who the writer is that keeps adding that element.

Seeing Mando made me realize how much I miss Mando.

Season 3 now plz

I whacked myself on accident multiple times with a broom growing up, pretending it was a lightsaber - always wondered what would happened if you slipped in Star Wars & hit yourself. Welp, guess we know now lol.
