That's the other thing. Why isn't he the most sunburned person ever?!?! I'm sure the Jawas didn't leave Boba any sunscreen after they robbed him of his armor and helmet. Then he's been sitting out in the desert all day while being prisoner of the Tuskens! Quote Link to comment
Cdog923 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Guys, this show is immensely boring thus far. Quote Link to comment
Cdog923 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Slight spoilers for today's episode: Spoiler Who knew the key to making a truly great episode of Boba Fett was to not have Boba Fett in it at all. Quote Link to comment

That looks like it can easily include an imagined terrible sunburn. But, the really easy explanation is that the planet's atmosphere and the planet's sun are different compositionally. 2 Quote Link to comment

Maybe my TV doesn't do any justice to the skin damage Boba Fett has incurred over his lifetime, and is a big reason he sleeps in a Bacta tank. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I guess I don't get the criticism of it thus far. People wanted to know what happened between him being swallowed and him popping up in the Mandalorian, if the show glossed over that completely fans would have flipped. The pacing has gotten better each episode thus far, haven't watched Ep5 yet though. I think a lot of folk were expecting "The Other Mandalorian" and this was never going to be that.

Lorewarn Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 This show is so bad they have to bring in Mando to be the main character in someone else's show to make it interesting. Quote Link to comment

Cdog923 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Ok, it's been a few days; we can talk about this now. Spoiler - Holy s#!t, the CGI for Luke was 1000 times better. Disney hired the deepfake artist that redid Luke's scene from Mandalorian on Youtube, and his talent shows, as Luke's face was virtually seamless. - Luke's voice performance was not acted by Mark Hamill; what they did was take digital archives of Mark's voice from the OT, audiobooks and other sources, and digitally produced/acted out the script. IMO, this set up for Luke Skywalker as a character going forward is only tenable if they intend on Luke being used sparingly (i.e., the Nick Fury of Star Wars). I would also prefer that Mark be used as the voice actor with digital technology being used to de-age his voice, as opposed to the somewhat robotic way they produced his lines in Boba Fett. If they intend on going forward with Luke as a main character, with his own show (fingers crossed), it either needs to be animated, or they can just finally cast Sebastian Stan as Young Luke and go from there.

Lorewarn Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Part of the robotic nature was to make it easier on the visuals. Quote Link to comment
funhusker Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Well, now that's it's over I'll make the "hot take" that it wasn't that great. I won't be sad if there isn't a season 2. If there is, I'll of course watch it; but nothing I'm going to be looking forward to. 1 Quote Link to comment

Talking to a coworker today and decided that it could have been a really cool movie about Boba Fett's survival and coming into the Tusken culture with the biker gang/Pikes as the antagonists in the same time frame as the flashbacks in the first half of the season. No need to even mess with taking over Jabba's thrown and dealing with the Pikes in "present" day. That all seemed really cobbled together... 1 Quote Link to comment
