gkneil Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 A drop in quality for Ep 3, particularly due to the below. Spoiler That chase scene was one of the worst things I have ever seen in Star Wars. An absolute cringe fest. It offended me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Burton Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Thought episode 1 of the Book of Boba Fett was OK, 2nd was really good but the 3rd is fucking awful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Leaked minutes from the writers' room Quote "Right lads, how can we make one of the coolest characters even cooler?" "We could have him learn how to ride a rancor into battle?" Agree on the chase scene though. Fucking hell. I would also like to see more of Krrsantan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceanlineayr Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) I have been enjoying the series so far. The first episode was fine as a set-up, the second was a cracking watch. The 3rd and latest was a definite drop in quality. Felt like I was watching a bigger budget Dr Who at some points. Regarding the chase scene my first thought was, Edited January 14, 2022 by Oceanlineayr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munro7 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I’m verging on hating the series but that’s because, like Vader, I think the character of Boba Fett has been ruined by the prequels. His appeal was the mysterious helmeted badass who stands up to Vader. Empire Strikes Back Fett does away with the Wookiee as soon as he has the upper hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s yeeted into a pit by a blind man in Return of the Jedi. He’s been shite for about 30 years. Middle managers on the Death Star were giving Vader shit in A New Hope. I think a lot of the love came from what is great costume design. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be either that or the First Order moving in? I don't really know the full time line etc of the ST. Are Dave and John about to make the First Order look as dangerous as they were supposed to be?

FairWeatherFan Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 He got his armour back in Mando. So the "current" timeline controlling Mos Espa is sometime after Mando s2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestly united Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Ep3 on paper sounded amazing, a quadraphenia esque scooter gang (one resplendent in suit and thin tie), a new rancor, Danny Trejo, a fight with the giant wookie, and all let down by worst chase ever 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotThePars Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 The chase scene is so funny. I have no idea what the rationale for the lethargic pace was other than thinking boring nerds would moan about them being able to manoeuvre at high speed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceanlineayr Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 The most bizarre part of EP 3 for me was after the scooter gang and Fennec Shand trap Krrsantan in the rancor pit. Boba appears in the throne room in what is basically your Dad's dressing gown. Didn't really associate Boba Fett and dressing gowns. Especially since he was almost assassinated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not feeling it much either. I don't want to be the 'it's just not star wars' guy but there's parts that just dont feel like star wars.

54_and_counting Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I honestly dont get the fuss over the original boba, when the expanded universe was made non canon, he became a side character in canon until he appeared in the mandalorian and now this He was a boy in the prequels, barely kicked a ball in the original films to the point where they binned him early doors in jedi, The expanded universe he was quite good but that's gone now, people pining over him from the originals, f**k knows why 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
