Y'know, now that I think about it, it's pretty impressive that Boba managed to fly from Mos Espa to his palace, mount up the rancor and ride it all the way back in a matter of minutes.

That said I'm amazed Shand was able to garrote Shaiz, given Ithorians have four throats.
I assumed the audible *crack* and suddenly going limp meant she broke his neck.

I think Boba Fett as a benevolent crime lord could have worked, but I think the execution could have been done better. And it's mainly because the "crime" aspect isn't really emphasized at all. Granted, it probably needed to be toned down anyway if Mando and the other good guys were gonna be on board but Boba should have still been just as feared as a crime lord as he was as a bounty hunter.

I really didn't even mind his motivation for going this route. Realizing that the galaxy's bounty hunters are just disposable pawns for asshole crime lords and wanting to ditch that way of life, in tandem with his near-death experience and his experience with the Tusken Raiders is a cool route to take his character. But there just wasn't enough of a smooth transition between his ruthless, coldhearted bounty hunting days and his "rule through respect, not fear" persona to make it fully believable. So it comes across looking like they just Disney-fied Boba Fett.

But if I'm being truly honest....while Boba Fett is definitely an awesome character, Mando is kind of just a much better version of him as far as being a character to center a story around.

Yeah at the end of the day, Mando is the Boba Fett that everybody always envisioned and Temuera Morrison's Fett is about as original and interesting as the clone that he is.

Reminds me of the last ep of S1 of Mandalorian. Where they had to camp in the middle of nowhere on the walk back in to town, but later the IG droid managed to cover the same distance in a couple of minutes.

I think there has been plenty of Slave I so far between Mandalorian and BoBF. Episode 4 was a great Slave I episode.

I much prefer the rancor to deal with the droids, honestly. That was some amazing stuff, watching him batter and slam and hurl those bots around. I loved that whole sequence.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Yup this is my take as well. There are a million things you can nitpick about the show. But I'm not going into it looking for things to criticize. It felt very Star Wars. A lot of it is dumb, but it was certainly entertaining.

Anyway, I think Cad Bane making an appearance in the Kenobi show is way more likely now. He's got a rivalry with him too, and this way they can continue making use of the live action version.

That was weak, but not that bad. Of course, the best parts were mostly all Mando. Though Fett handing Cad Bane his ass was pretty nice and the Rancor was cool with the first droid.

Otherwise, way too much running around and aimlessly shooting. I have a crazy sound system and this episode was shaking the entire time, which got a bit annoying.

They should have saved Grogu's return till Mando S3. I thought that is what they were going for since it was obvious what he was going to do.

As for Fett, I don't think it was the Tuskens that really changed him. It was more like being eaten by the Sarlacc and pretty much being dead being the real catalyst and the Tuskens reinforced it. Personally, I didn't mind him going good.

You know there was something I questioned about Boba's motivations in this show. It seemed like he was pissed off that he nearly died in service to Jabba. But shouldn't he be blaming himself for that and not necessarily Jabba? Did he really have any obligation to stay around after delivering Solo to him before ROTJ? He even says to Fennec something along the lines of he doesn't want bounty hunters to get killed after being caught up in the plots of bad employers. But his relationship with Jabba seems like one he brought upon himself.

Boba Fett getting fat while hanging out with Tusken Raiders? Just wouldn't happen, tbh

Boba Fett's voice changing to sound just like Jango Fett? Wouldn't happen

Boba Fett all of a sudden not coming across like a creepy sadistic quiet intelligence? Doubt

Boba Fett is arguably the most famous Wilhelm scream in Hollywood history. Didn't get the sense this show got that

They made him a little too much of a lame brain. Boba Fett in the original series was like a tiger. It stalks you and sneaks up on you, but if you catch it .. you shoot it and it's dead. Absolutely terrifying predator but still just a dumb animal at the end of the day. No match for a Jedi. Boba Fett in this series was the polar opposite. He looks kinda lame but ended up doing a bunch of cool stuff, and has a lot of bass in his voice. Not really near what the original had. Bulky. Indecisive. Honorable. Works well with others. Little slow on the draw.

I will say I don't understand the complaints that they kept shooting the droids. Anyone who's played WoW will recognize that they were just tank swapping. The droids had really simplistic threat tables.

On one hand I don't want to remove the single notable death from this zero-stakes fight in this zero-stakes show. On the other hand Cad Bane was far too cool to die in his first live-action appearance. Especially to the absolute lamer that is Boba Fett.

I will this credit to this series, they managed to keep the movie's spirit of Boba Fett being a complete loser very well in tact.

It was CGI? I was thinking the mouth at least was real. But then again there were a couple times where it seemed like the mouth was very slightly off-sync with the voice (unless that's just Disney+ acting up).

I'm like 90% sure the mouth was real, at least. Those teeth and lip movements looked way too real to be cgi. The lip synching issue is probably because they got his cartoon voice actor to dub him over.
