Star Wars not Zombies.

It’s a fine line.

Outta the way Stella!

Is Rick Dagless coming back?

It's sunk time fallacy at this point. It's one of the few things myself and my wife watch together, so that's what keeps me going.

I knew these guys would have stupid canonical names. I've only just found out how stupid.

A jizz-wailer was a musician who specialized in playing jizz songs. Max Rebo and his band often played popular jizz-wailer standards.

It hasn't quite hit the heights of Mando yet, but I am still finding it good fun. I wonder whether the Regardless, Fett's high speed heist was more thrilling than that bit in the film.

The only disappointment for me was the reveal of the
Josh might be directing fan fiction, but I reckon it's still got legs.

Hmmm dodgy second episode. I'm liking the Tusken stuff faaaaar more than the Daimyo story. In saying that there was a scene in episode two that reminded me of The Mighty Boosh

My main problem is I find the Daimyo Boba Fett completely unthreatening. He seems a bit shit at fighting suddenly. That bit in episode one....aim low mate, aim low. I'm a bit surprised because I guess my expectations were high after Mando.
All in all it's fine, I've no major complaints, it looks great and some lovely musical pieces.

i've not bothered with this yet. I was never a Boba Fett fan, didn't really understand why he became such a cult thing in the first place.

and then the mandalorian is basically boba fett anyway isn't he, so it all seems rather pointless.

I do wonder if the inherent flaw with this series might be the whole "western in space" approach that they are taking with the shows. They can get away with sparse dialogue with something like the Mandalorian as it's working along the same lines as the spaghetti westerns.

But I'm not convinced that you can do a "crime show" without copious amounts of chit chat. They seem, at least at the moment, to be trying to avoid that, so we're getting drip fed the modern stuff and seeing more of the dialogue-light Tusken stuff.

I actually enjoyed both episodes (more so the second one) but I'm more interested in seeing a Star Wars Mafia show than anything and I'm not sure that's what we're getting.

Haven’t watched it but didn’t we expect meh from all the fan service stuff? It’s like Solo, I honestly can’t recall a thing from it. I really wish they would expand out into other stuff, use the universe to tell different stories.

I’m around 10 years younger and he probably moves better than me, so yeah pot kettle

He's got a cracking set of gnashers on him but.

Is Obi-Wan going to be set while he's in exile, or during the Clone Wars?

They really need to get away from Tatooine.

He shunned the Sand People skincare regime, that's what.

Well I really enjoyed episode 2 of Boba Book. I’m all for Boba and the Tuskens joining forces against the Hutts and keeping the story local to Tattoine gangs. It was a decent episode I thought, mixing good action with a nice story of Boba and Tuskens. I also think the Boba actor is doing a good job conveying Boba’s transition from bounty hunter to principled don, feeling his way. It does feel similar to the Tattoine levels of Mandalorian but nowt wrong with that in my opinion.

Regarding Kenobi, at least some of that is set on Tattoine also as there were huge Tattoine sets in the UK built for it that Ewan McGregor was on. I think it is supposed to be the period that old Ben is keeping watch while Luke grows up. And you’ll all be pleased to know Hayden Christensen is cast again for it. Assuming that’s for flashbacks as Anakin and not a Tattoine-based Kenobi vs Darth battle before the famous Death Star meet up because a) that would be terrible; and b) the old ‘when I first met you…now I’m the master’ line would lose all its poignancy.
