Current Events > I know Book of Boba Fett s1 is over, but I have a gripe. *SPOILERS*

(+) Yeah! (+)

The moped gang of edgy teenagers who have boners for body modifications like theyre tattoos.

Who tf thought that was a good idea? And the slow-mobile scooter chases? I cringed every time they came on screen.

It seemed like a tacked-on concept from a show that was meant to be set on Coruscant or something. They really didnt fit thematically

I thought they clashed a little, but I wasn't really bothered by them until the last episode where that one motherfucker did that fucking spin.

BoBF was just not a good show. Period.

The power ranger group is the lamest part of that show, they stand out like a sore thumb.

They just felt out of place, which is weird for Star Wars since pretty much anything can work in that universe.

I think as someone else mentioned, if they were characters in a series that took place on one of more urban planets like Nar Shaddaa or Coruscant, their cyberpunk aesthetic could have worked. They really, really clashed with the worn-down, rusty, low-tech aesthetic of Tatooine (and the rest of the show in general).

Also, yes, that one dude doing the spin is probably one of the fucking goofiest moments in Star Wars, and that's not exaggerating.

That spin was someone wanting to insert a Micheal Jackson moment in SW and it looked goofy as hell.

truly one of the most pointless scenes of the show...

You guys don't get it, I thought they fit perfectly. They, like the rest of the show, were really fucking bad.

What makes the spin even stupider is he was already facing in the direction he needed so he actually fucking wasted time doing it

I was okay with them, except that they lived on a dirty, dusty, gritty, desert planet and looked remarkably clean despite being too poor to afford water.

Again, I think they really could have worked if it was in the context of them working for a crime syndicate on Coruscant.

whats the most funny about this show is how its literally called "The Book of Bobba Fett" but then halfway through it, it forgets who the protagonist is supposed to be.

granted that Mando is way cooler and interesting than that geriatric motherfucker passing off as a badass bounty hunter but still... lol

Honestly, even despite the title, I would have been cool if Boba wasn't the main protagonist but rather if the show focused more on the people working for him. Like if the show was about Fennec Shand, Santo and some other guns for hire doing gang shit for Boba's criminal empire, that could have been cool. Give him a presence similar to Vader in that he rarely gets his hands dirty, but when he does, it's a problem.

But instead, what they did was devote half the show to specifically Boba Fett and his character arc, and then halfway through made it more about the conflict surrounding him and not he himself.

The Book of Boba Fett had two really really interesting premises.

Fett living with and learning the Tusken culture. It was great to have some world building over an established but little understood aspect of the original trilogy.

Fett actually becoming a gang leader. Keep the tribe massacre in play but keep the Tusken kid for Fett to look after and become part of the enterprise. Do a lot more with Krrsantan. He's a fucking Wookie for Christ sakes. But the moped gang? The constant switch of main villains, a bad-ass rival bounty hunter introduced too late in the season? Meh.

The worst aspect is the Mandalorian stuff though. I mean it was good for the most part but it didn't need to be shoe-horned into the show to devalue it's importance.

Oh and give those Gamorrean guards some justice for crying out loud! Should have kept them and killed off the cyborgs.

Cad Bane really should have been introduced from the very first episode. Probably at the end of it

They could have made Cad Bane work if they introduced him in episode 3 or 4 as one of the people who wiped out Bobas new family.

Cad Bane apparently mentored Boba. Another way to introduce him earlier is to parallel Boba's lessons with the Tuskens with his lessons from Boba.

What is TC talking about? This was the greatest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle crossover in the history of television! I cant believe we got the Neutrinos into Star Wars. This is clearly setting up a future Donatello appearance.
