I hate to say it, 3.5 readers, but this was the best episode of the Book of Boba Fett so far and it’s because the new, I don’t wear my mask anymore and I don’t hunt bounties anymore because I’m trying to be a crime boss Boba Fett wasn’t in it.
The Mandalorian returns and it was all about Mando, from a duel with a fellow mando over the dark saber, to a fixing up a broken down starfighter montage with wacky mechanic friend Amy Sedaris, this installment was a lot of fun and makes me wonder if Disney Plus might have been better off just focusing on putting out a third season of Mando.
I feel like they ruined the Boba character but technically, they just took all his patented stoicism and bad guy killing skills at the flick of a wrist techniques and transferred them to Mando as well as the followers of the mando religion. So you still get kick ass bounty hunting missions, you just have to watch as Mando does them.
Book of Boba does have its moments but Mando seems to be the superior series, with hints in this episode of what Mando might be up to if there is a Mando Season 3.
STATUS: Shelf-worthy.
Agreed, except these all move SO SLOWLY.
I don’t hate the Boba Fett show I just don’t really love it either. Mando seems more interesting mainly because they transferred all of what made Boba interesting and transferred it to Mando. Now Boba is an old man who crawled out of a worm belly and is trying to start a space crime syndicate which isn’t as interesting as it sounds.
Honestly, it reminds me of “The Simpsons” where it’s making fun of Episode 1 with all politics.
Robot breaks into space parliament room. “Hey, so and so has the floor!” Robot sits down and reads a newspaper and waits.
Exactly!
