The Book of Boba Fett (spoilers)

But he shot a guy in the face.

I never said he would follow up on that...

I liked the bikes. Very diesel punk.

I kept thinking the one girl seemed awful pale for living on a desert planet.

She steals sunscreen and moisturizer.

Most feared bounty hunter, perhaps. That says that he's an absolute badass on an individual level. But a crime lord has to be different – you can't be a mafia boss without a mafia. And right now, he doesn't have that, and that's what people are reacting to.

I get what you're saying but people are still pretty lippy to a guy holding a rifle and a galaxy-wide reputation as willing to use it. I dunno. Strikes me as inconsistent.

Respectfully!

Do you think there were no survivors from that day? And do you think there are no jokes circulating Tatooine about how Fett ended up in the Pit? If he is not going to just go around executing people, which is what some people seem to expect of the show, he has to rebuild his reputation and earn the respect again. I always looked at Fett as a minor throwaway character, but The Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett have changed that.

And this is aimed at a lot of posters, not singling you out. Yours was just the most recent post.

And only from dishonest merchants.

It seems possible or even probable that this scooter episode is the Jump the Shark moment for the show.

In the new canon Fetta just a bounty hunter his legends stuff doesn't really apply. He's good but he's not superman.

So it's the movies, cartoons and BoBF. Latest episodewas alright they're building up to something and I kinda like the world building.

Episode 4 was good.

I note that Fennec actually referred to the biker gang as “the mods”. Yes, it’s because they’re cybernetically modified, but it’s also another reference to Quadrophenia!

I liked the “mod parlor”. Like a tattoo parlor but for cybernetic enhancements.

The kitchen droids were interesting. Trust Jabba to have servant droids that are also programmed to fight. (Were the whirling cleavers a subtle callback to Grievous?)

I also liked whatsername’s attempt to talk Krrsantan out of ripping the trandoshan’s arm off.

I note that he’s just Krrsantan now. They seem to have dropped the “black” part. I also note that Boba just refers to his ship as a firespray. It would seem someone at Lucasfilm / Disney is determined to not have it be referred to as Slave 1 ever again.

The Mandalorian theme at the end was a not so subtle hint that Mando is the muscle Fennec is thinking of. Looking forward to seeing him again!

Now that Boba is fully healed, will we get any more flashbacks? The only dangling thread left is how he found out Mando had his armor and how he tracked him to Tython, but I suppose we don’t really need to have that gap filled in.
