The Book Of Boba Fett

I want this to be good but it’s just a bit shit.

Slippery naked Boba just made me laugh. The guy is rubbish at everything and is an idiot but the show seems to be doing it by accident. He’s doing nothing to suggest he has any chance of taking over a crime empire, I assume the last episode is him giving up and retiring.

When the series is done, I want a super cut of Boba bumbling about, from the original trilogy, to Jango in the prequels, to this show. Edit it to the Benny Hill theme.

I like the show, but he really is shitty at most things.

Jesus this is awful. I'm watching the wookie fight and the funky bunch just came to the rescue. I'm not sure I can endure much more.

That could be the most badly shot chase scene I think I've ever saw. Robert Rodriguez is an absolutely terrible director.

He hasn’t directed anything good in about 20 years.

It's completely down to the director. I've had the misfortune of having to sit through his bullshit kids films and they all have that same awful direction. Everything he makes looks like absolute shit.

I enjoyed it. Whilst the Speeder Lambrettas may have looked out of place for some, it harked back to Luke wanting to go to Tosche Station to get some power converters. Young people on Tatooine must be bored shitless, and probably want something that looks cooler than what other people have. This is backed up by spending credits on the augment upgrades. They probably think it would give their gang a reputation. Which is understandable on a world where one of the obvious career choices is working for a crime syndicate.

He directed the "Boba Fett kicks ass" episode of The Mandalorian ("The Tragedy"), interestingly. But to be fair it did have some cheesy stuff in (particularly the final baby-theft).

He seems to be one of those directors that needs a low budget, but then should do projects that can get away with a low budget.

I’ve seen he was proud for making those kids films on a ridiculously low budget with crappy effects, I guess young kids don’t care much so it makes some sense. Awful for anyone else to watch though.

Who starred with Pedro Pascal, The Mandalorian, in Prospect which, if you haven't seen, is extremely worthwhile and available just now on Amazon Prime.

What spoiled it for me was that those "speeder bikes" looked like mobility scooters.
After that the lack of any sense of speed during the chase (which fits the mobility scooter thing).

But those were the only things that I did not like about this episode. I am still curious on how the story will develop (both in the flashback, although that I think I can guess as in the present time).

7. And we can already assume they're going full holiday special

7? I hope it picks up then. A lot. Or everyone will wish old Bobby Feta had never climbed out of the skunge pit.

From this TV series, I've got no idea where he got his fearsome reputation from. That might have been before he was guzzled up by the slurp monster.
