Current Events > The Book of Boba Fett Episode 2 *SPOILERS*

(+) Yeah! (+)

Train hijack was nice. Vision quest was nice.

Boy am I sure glad some actual Hutts showed up to challenge Boba Fett otherwise we'd be having an entire season of Boba Fett just standing around dealing with normal bureaucrats. >_>

Can't have a western without a train robbery...

Also can't have a western without a white sav-- sorry HUMAN savior trope. :-P

lol no shit, right?

Like seriously I don't know if this is what they're trying to get across but every interaction with Tatooine locals comes across like:

Fett: "Uh hey everyone. I'm in charge but things are going to be nice....r, okay?"
Local: "Sure thing sport. Have a good one then."

couple names in the credits i definitely wasn't expecting to see.

i've liked both episodes, but i'm thinking this one might be better as a binge.

Oh and the subtitles suggest that the woman in the bar is Camie. The same Camie who was cut from ANH, suggesting the guy she's with is Fixer, another cut character.

Why is Boba Fett so nice all of a sudden?

Suddenly a 50 minute ep. Damn this was a great one.

I liked the mayor...and it was Rob Rodriguez's voice?

You ever done lizard, man?

I mean it's Star Wars. Contextually that can mean more than one thing.

The train scene was very Mad Max like, awesome scene

Really enjoying this show so far

Yeah this has been great

He directed the first episode

So far it's more of a Tusken Raider show featuring Boba Fett than an actual Boba Fett show.

Hurrrr

I wouldn't say Boba Fett is "good", morally, and what do you expect him to do? Just kill everyone lol? As the Hutt in Episode 2 said: Killing is bad for business.

I like character evolution and growth, and having Boba Fett go from a high-profile bounty hunter to the boss of his former employers is a nice twist. I know people have their gripes/criticisms, but these series are good overall.

2nd episode was better than the first imo

I want to punch that smart ass Twi'lek in the throat

Yeah, he also produced this one, but it was weird hearing his voice...

Not that I disliked the train flashback. Bobas plan was shockingly and almost laughably half-cocked and needlessly wasteful of his own sides lives, but overall it was still fun. However, I much preferred the present-day stuff. Seeing the Hutt cousins was awesome.

The Tusken donkey braying had me in stitches.

Yeah I'm still not quite sure how or if they're going to really dive into Boba's motivations or what's caused him to change. Because growing to appreciate Tusken Raider culture alone doesn't seem to be it.

But no big deal if they don't I guess. The train attack was stupid, but it was also quite fun.

Also that Wookiee bounty hunter is a pre-existing character apparently.

Yeah, Black Krrsantan. Hes worth looking up.

Black Krrsantan

I thought he looked familiar.

He first showed up in Vader's comic, right?

Yeah, SW Theory's breakdown went into how it is those two, and that Tosche Station here looks just like it did in that deleted scene.

it's definitely them, their names are in the credits

Im not sure why this is a Boba Fett show, or why its a show at all really

feels too similar to the mandalorian, with less variety in settings (based on the premise), and boba fett doesnt seem in character with what weve seen from him before

its enjoyable but feels completely superfluous

live action pykes and ithorians are cool

I believe so

I prefer the modern stuff to the past scenes. It was fine but I am done with the flashback stuff

I was definitely expecting a relative of Jabba showing up since this was a great place to involve one. Didn't think they'd throw in 2 cousins lol.

Though I was not expecting Black Krrsantan at all. Wow. This guy has easily knocked Chewie out and that scar on his face is from Obi Wan's lightsaber.

Does anybody else find the Gamorrean guards being shirtless to be incredibly distracting?

Rub your cheeks across their sweaty green bellies

I really don't know much of star wars but seeing Boba Fett smiling like a dork with the sand bikes was so cute

Muscular stomachs like that is hot on a man

Bump

Who wants to watch Jango Fett get his ass kicked and fumble the ball?

Liked this ep a lot more than the first. I have some hope this could be a decent series again.

Love the occasional callbacks to Return of the Jedi.

Their thicc thighs are

edit: also what's up with that random ass lizard-induced trip sequence

I'm fully expecting Fett having united the Tusken tribes, at this point.

That'd be the major ace-up-his-sleeve he'd need to assert himself on tatooine. And exactly the sort of thing none of these current players would be expecting.

Seeing Boba Fett escape the Sarlac has been Star Wars legend since before many of you were born

Bruh I'm 32 and knew about that I mean simple shit like the scene where they open the blast door being a direct mirror of Luke entering the palace and the Rancor pit and shit like that

Makes a lot of sense. I'm now expecting a scene where they're cornered and then a whole Tusken army arrives and surrounds the city.

Episode 2 was absolutely amazing.

Theyre trying to show how and why Bobas character changed so much from ROTJ to the present, and going on a Tusken spirit journey helps that goal along.

Yeah, this seems likely.

I'm really enjoying this series so far. The train bit was amazing.

Yeah I feel kinda silly not putting that together, but it would make for a more clear motivation to rule crime on Tatooine; having an interest in elevating the native population.
