Hey, Ryan, that "branch" was the Tusken kid's Training Gaffi Stick. Disney wanted to make it clear the biker gang killed the kids, without showing a dead kid.
11:10 I think it works, because it sort of demonstrates their inexperience. They're a scrappy street gang of misfit youths who were down on their luck, not trained soldiers. Running down the Mayor's assistant is one thing, but facing a battle-hardened, ex-gladiator, wookiee bounty hunter is beyond anything they've dealt with. It kinda makes sense they kept their distance. Keeping him off balance and stalling until reinforcements show up who know how to deal with him.
That branch though….. not from his vision quest. That was fashioned into his gaffe stick. The one he burned in this episode belong to the child tusken that he previously saved. Indicating his demise unfortunately
Seeing him hesitate to throw the branch into the fire. That’s the part that really got me in this episode. It absolutely belonged to the Tusken youngling, which made the village being torn apart even more devastating. Never thought I’d feel sympathetic toward the Tusken Raiders, or Rancors. Lol or Boba for that matter. Since we’re seeing things from the perspective of Boba now, a light is being shown onto the things in the SW universe that we once believed to be dark or evil. I’m loving these different perspectives.
That gaffe stick he hesitated to burn was the kids practice stick. That's why he took a moment. Rather than showing the dead kid, Disney opts to show the dead leader and then the kid's weapon.
Is what he said about not liking you aimed at Heavy Spoilers? Do a video about that. Weird, my 2 favorite movie/TV review channels don't like each other.
Two things to point out. First, the unfinished stick he was thinking about throwing in the fire wasn't his. It was from the child raider he befriended. This is confirmed in the descriptive audio of the episode. Second, an easter egg for Screen Crush, you can tell that the studio has a ceilling fan with four light fictures. You can see this in the reflection of the plaque at the end of the episode. This suggests that he may not be in a video store since we have a glimpse of reality he doesn't want us to see.
@@daulusmoretto makes sense. Perhpas Doug is a voice that keeps him calm so he doesn't think about it. After all, he even mentioned, "We never have customers."
Thank you for pointing that first one out. A lot of reaction channels I watched didn’t clock it and shrugged off who’s staff it belonged to and I was so disappointed
Yup! I was hoping that maybe he had escaped, but technically we didn't see him either? maybe he got away somehow, and will come back later on in the series to save Boba from some kinda trap or capture, who knows! Unless. they showed the body and I completely missed it!!
I really love how the Book of Boba Fett is going but I dislike the new speeders because they don’t fit in to Tatooine. They would have been better on Coruscant.
I interpreted the speeders either as a small offworld street gang that settled on Tatooine because they had no other option.... Or alternatively, theyre the New younger rebellious generation, breaking away from the status quo of their community.
The fight with the wookie didnt bothered me that much. The speeder chase though did strike me as a bit slow, like it failed to convey the adrenaline rush a chase scene should. Just nitpicking, I'm enjoying the show a lot and seeing Trejo in a galaxy far away is an absolute treat
Ordering the Rancor be fed is also showing Fett’s new way of running things. Jabba kept his Rancor starved so it would be extra aggressive towards it’s victims.
That makes sense when I heard Danny Trejo say there emotional creatures I was thinking nope ( I did not see badbatch) so all I was thinking was wow this is kinda. A new take
that failing bi-plane sound that was used for the Millenium Falcon was also used to an extent in Episode 1 when Anakin's pod racer stalls on the start line.
10:17 I feel like the Pykes will prove to be the ones behind it all. Since they're shaping up to be (the main?) villains in the present, the showrunners may want them more ruthless in the past, too. They might've killed the tusken and framed the gang by using their symbol, knowing Boba would avenge his allies. This would take care of both groups for the Pykes, with Boba doing much of the work, and not making an enemy out of the guy who lead the successful assault on their train.
That was a pretty cool call back to Star Wars expanded universe The Witches of dathomir riding Rancor is right out of a novel called the courtship of Princess Leia even Luke in that story got to ride a rancor and get to know one and talk about how he regretted having to kill one in self-defense.
I love the references to the EU in this and the mandalorian. Also when Boba said he has rode bigger things then the Rancor, he was referring to the Holiday Special Ichthosaur
The fight scene you mentioned being stale actually makes a bit of sense to me. The cyborgs strike me as being connoisseurs of weapons and tech, but not necessarily fighters. This was probably their first major fight (possibly their first real one). Their reserved actions were calculated. They were looking for an opening whilst making sure not to hurt their allies. Perhaps the fight would have looked cooler if it had more action, but that would have told a different story: that this team fights actively and practices frequently. I don't think that's the case though. On the other hand, I hated the bike chase scene... it felt too slow.
You said it would be cool to see the forest witches in live action… BUT WE DID! Charal the forest witch (Night Sisters) appeared in 1985’s Ewoks: Battle for Endor!!!
12:13 the hutts are in a far weaker state than you think you mention the crimson dawn comic, in that comic series Vader killed of most of the hutt council leaving Jabba the some survived. So in less than a year the entire hutt hierarchy was remove. This also means that “the Big 5” are down to 3 at most.
Missed the Goonies homage during the market chase: the protocol droid’s reaction to the passing speeders is shot exactly like Rosalita and the police cars, complete with a little bit of janky fast-motion thrown in.
Leia being identified as "the Huttslayer" due to a secret recording is a minor plot point in the canon novel Bloodline. Maybe it's not yet common knowledge around 9 ABY when this show is set, but by 28 ABY, the Nikto cartel headed by Rinnrivin Di knows that Leia killed Jabba. It's also revealed that this Nikto gang dominates Jabba's old territory by the time of the book, so it's possible we might see characters like Rinnrivin Di on this show too.
The standard date system for Star Wars refers to years before the Battle of Yavin (BBY) or years after the Battle of Yavin (ABY). If you're not familiar, the Battle of Yavin is the battle that happens during the climax of Episode 4, when Luke destroys the Death Star.
I'll be so disappointed if the rancor is already bonded and a trap for Boba. It would be far more badass for Boba to become famous for riding around on a rancor.
Honestly most of the fights/action sequences (besides the train) have seemed really slow and inorganic. I noticed it in the first episode when he's surrounded. I thought maybe it was an editing thing, but you're right. The fight with the Wookie was even worse and the speeder chase seemed like it needed to be sped up, so I guess it's both choreography and editing. I'm really enjoying it plot wise though and the acting is incredible. Just odd that the action isn't living up to it's usual standards
The Black Krrsantan jump-scare made me literally scream in front of my wife. Embarrassing, but totally worth it. Superb editing! Turning out to be a great series. Another fantastic breakdown from ScreenCrush. Word to your mother.
The only youtuber I genuinely love and believe deserves more success than there is to offer. The nerdy dedication to the fictions and characters we all love really makes you feel like a childhood best friend just as hyped about every little morsel of detail as us. Thank you Ryan, can't wait to see how many more million you earn!
When Danny was talking about Rancor's, I couldn't help but noticed the parallels with Pit Bulls & other dog's that if in the hands of the wrong owner, can be poorly trained, abused, and used as a weapon, when in fact, Pit Bulls are extremely loyal, loving, and playful. In the right hands of someone whose willing to put in the hard work to not only train the animal, but train themselves, the bond can be extremely strong. I got emotional to see how much both Danny's character, and Boba actually cared about the Rancor, and it's well-being, instead of writing it off as a killing monster.
The Tuskin’s didn’t “have it coming”. As pointed out in the last episode they have a right to the land and should be the sole faction granting protection and safe passage. These allusions to colonialism are very obvious and furthered by these first three episodes having a focus on Fett learning their traditions.
Thank you. I thought the same thing. Replace "Tuskens" with "Native Americans" in that sentence. "The Native Americans had it coming". That is a crazy take. And right before that he said "this is really sad, ESPECIALLY THE DEAD BANTHAS". What the fuck dude.
Perhaps he was more meaning that it was not something that was completely unexpected. They/Boba had just beaten up the biker gang, stolen their bikes and destroyed the train the gang were meant to be 'protecting'. But yes, a poor choice of phrasing.
Yeah, the "action" in this episode was very underwhelming. I'm surprised, because they did some great things in Mando. And that chase scene was extremely corny.
It's weird, the only episode of the series I've thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish is the single episode that hasn't been directed by Robert Rodriguez. Not sure how to feel about that since he's the showrunner.
@@kylewolfe_ I mean George didn't know too much about at directing back in the days right? I still love the story but it's always the pacing that wasn't done very well since Mando s2e6. Hope he can improve if there are future seasons.
@@kylewolfe_ I also didn't like his episode on the Mandalorian. That episode with baby Yoda meditating on the rocks looked like a cheap 60's Star Trek episode. I don't think he was the best choice for this.
I wondered for a moment why Boba didn’t keep the Chieftan’s Gaffi stick and then I realized that I’m sure Boba has come to know the value of a chieftain stick, and why he had not yet earned the ability to have one yet
While episode 1 was ok. Episode two was great! Episode 3 has been the worst so far for me in my opinion! I was disappointed with how quickly the tuskens were eliminated, the action wasn’t great and the speeder bike gang felt out of place. The speeder bike chase through the streets was a major setback for me with this series. Unfortunately you can’t rely on this series being good just by bringing back familiar faces, species and calls to other works. It’s still early days yet but I hope it gets better from here!
And the one thing in common.......... Directed by Robert Rodriguez. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy Robert Rodriguez' style in directing, but not in Star Wars. It just feels out of place. I had no idea who directed this episode, but about half way thru........ (*Cough*DannyTrejo*Cough*) I guessed it was him.
this might be a bottle episode with the pikes arriving I imagine the next episode will be action packed. The animation likely got farmed out for this episode as it nowhere near what electric light and magic would do.
this is how i think Boba's house will be like Boba, the crime boss Fennec Shan, Boba's Righthand, and advisor (if i'm lucky) Black Krrsantan, Boba's enforcer The Gamorreans, Boba's bodyguards 8D8, Boba's majordomo the Mods, Boba's informants The Rancor trainer....the rancor trainer Thoughts?
I really didn't like the cyberpunk scooter riders. Felt like it didn't belong in this universe that's very dirty and gritty. The bright colours of their scooter things really stood out in a badway, looking like something out of power rangers. And the "car chase" was terrible and looked like something out of a video game rather than a TV show. Not to mention it felt SO slow, like walking pace or like trying to run in a dream
It reminded me of bad oldschool movies where kids coming from rich parents chill around gas station and try to look cool, but in cheap and childish/colourful. The concept of cyborg-teenagers who grew up in the dirt of the working district in itself would have been so nice to explore more, it even could've been a callback to his tusken "family" when he teached them to get the respect they deserved. Would have done A LOT for character development, I mean...does anyone even remember the name of one of those Power Rangers? :D
They started goin that route with niktos chopper speeders. Now this lambretta gang. Looks like we’ll end up with a biker gang vs scooter gang brawl. Not a fan of either.
I thought it was so out of place that it was cheesily hilarious. I was laughing the whole time. I know it was out of place entirely but for some reason I thought it was hilarious 😅
10:46 the branch was not a piece he brought back nor was he contemplating it, the branch was owned by the youngling tusken who was with him for a large part of episode 2. The stick matches to the exact one the kid have, he had saved this kid before and in that shot the demise of Boba fett is shown.
I was talking with Caleb from the Canadian Bushcraft Channel the other week about the Tusken Raiders and the different feats of war Boba Fett had performed. In Plains culture there are 4 feats that must be performed to become a War Chief: 1) steal an enemies horse. Fett did this when he came back to the village with all those speeder bikes. 2) Lead a successful war party. Successfully capturing the train definitely counts. 3) laying hands on an enemy without taking their life. The captured Pikes from the train raid who are released fit the bill and finally, 4) stealing an enemies weapon. We see weapons being unloaded from the train heist as well. For anyone interested in reading more about these feats of war, look up Joe Medicine Crow who was the last modern War Chief of the Crow Nation who successfully completed all four tasks during WW2
1st of all, the train was a BATTLE. Not a war. If the WAR had been won, the Tuskens would NOT be dead now. 2nd, even if the Tuskens are BASED off of a Native American tribe, that doesn’t mean it’s the same for a tribe of natives on a completely different planet/galaxy. The rules aren’t even the same for different tribes in the same parts of America!!!
@@YouSpewed Yes, we’re all sad the Tuskens died. Though, leading a successfully war party does not mean winning a war, it can be various things, leading a war party (an assembled group of warriors) into battle and meeting your objectives (like burning down a fort) or lead them on a raid etc. Obviously variation exists from nation to nation and they change over time, like the one about horses. Nobody said its the same for them, the point of all this backstory to their way of life is to expose us to more of their way of life, learning, comparing, and contrasting from others, like my own. Mississauga’s have very little in common with the day to day living of Tuskens, but why would we? We’re woodland people. All of us are exploring this world through the eyes of Boba Fett, would he have known if there were specific accolades offered to warriors in Tusken culture? Probably not, why would he? Would the writers of this show even know that? Probably not, why would they? Which is why I made the comment in the first place, its pretty cool that Boba Fett did all those things even though it was probably just written to lift these different tropes from old westerns and add repulsorlifts.
@@keithmontreuil6726 Ok. That makes more sense. What DOESN’T make sense is the fact that when they took him as a slave, that he decided to stay with them, instead of escaping. He had no idea whether they would take him in as one of their own or just enslave him again. Edit: Why do you assume that we are all sad that they died? That’s like assuming he would ever take the chance of returning to his captors, instead of escaping.
Minor correction - the little monsters you keep referring to as ‘Bubo’ are actually called ‘Frog-Dogs’. Bubo (short for Buboicullarr) is actually the name of the individual Frog Dog that Jabba kept as a pet seen in the throne room scenes in ROTJ! He even had an elaborate back story where he saved Jabba’s life from an assassination attempt.
A couple things: 1. The fight scene with Black Krrsantan was quite underwhelming. It could've been so bad ass! As a famed wookiee bounty hunter, he really has the strength to rip all of these characters in half with his bare hands. He also could rip the gamorian guards in half too. It felt like his character got a huge power nerf. I think they should've approached this fight differently. But that's my opinion. Also - Fennec should've been more involved I think. Would've been cool! 2. The chase scene feels like something out of a Austin Powers - so slow and the mopeds look so out of place I think it was a 6/10 because it had some highlights but - it missed on a couple potential big hitters. I.e. imagine if the fight scene and the chase scene were amazing! Also congrats on hitting 1M subs!
Weakest episode by far. Robert Rodriguez needs to be booted as a Star Wars director. This episode had a stupid, silly Spy Kids vibe and it completely took me out of the established universe.
Agreed. It felt more like a scene where the new kids could shine, and they didn’t… All I kept thinking was how everyone keeps sneaking into Boba’s palace and attack him, and he keeps being saved by the inept guards that are working for him. It’s not a good look, Boba! I really felt like the chase was made on the Star Wars equivalent of mobility scooters rather than speeder bikes. Slow doesn’t begin to describe it, and it was just another stupid scene to let the new kids shine, and again they didn’t. They were what bothered me most about the episode. They have a stupid gimmick, ugly unfitting colour schemes and lame personalities. I want badasses, not power rangers.
With the Witches riding rancors, also could be a nod to the Empire at War games, since in the expansion you can actually get they as units that ride racor around.
10:37 Ryan: "Boba hesitates to burn a portion of the branch he brought back from his vision quest." Wrong. That's not a branch from Boba's brain-lizard-fueled vision quest. It's the small practice gaderffii stick that he took from the child when he made his escape attempt. He was mourning the death of the child who died along with the new family Boba had found for himself. This is the second time he lost his family which reveals his raison d'etre (driving purpose) which is to get revenge for this massacre and make Tattooine a safe place for Tuskens to live in peace.
My parents actually knew the original actor for Bib fortuna so he was always like one of my favourite characters. Seeing him at the end bf of the mandalorian (not the same guy) I was so hype
@@DoctorZorders I thought Bib Fortuna in the Mando S2 finale was played by veteran Lucasfilm sound editor and General Grievous voice actor Matthew Wood?
The three Tuskan characters represent the three stages of Bobas life: child, warrior and leader. On first contact with each one, the child beats him up, the warrior beats him up but the leader excepts him. This is because the show is about him contending with the fact that he isn’t a child or a warrior anymore and that it’s time for him to be a leader now. The dream vision sequence in Ep.2 shows us two trees surrounded by water. The large tree is Jango and the small tree is Boba back when they lived on Kamino. He’s drawn towards the Jango tree but it suffocates him. This is because he is still attached to his father. He struggles to break free and when he does he walks away from his father but takes a small piece of Jango with him, the branch he proceeded to craft into his own Gaffi stick. Immediately after this he experiences a rebirth. When Krrsantan pulls him out of the bacta pod he goes for his armor but it doesn’t help him, the Gaffi stick does. This is because his fathers armor is power which he inherited but the Gaffi stick is power which he forged himself. Boba is stronger in the flashbacks on purpose. This is because when he is separated from his armor, strangely, he feels stronger than he has at any point in his life before. When he gets the armor back in The Mandalorian he kicks ass at first but as we’ve seen, after a few days or weeks he begins to feel weak for some reason. So to deal with this he continues to go to the bacta pod to heal this physical damage causing his weakness. Except there’s a problem: it’s not physical damage, it’s emotional damage. He is traumatized by watching his father die and he is attached to becoming the same ruthless bounty hunter his father was. But is this who Boba is or is it just who his father was? Has Boba ever considered just being Boba or has he always been obsessed with the idea of becoming Jango fett? He is after all a carbon copy of jango. So once he realizes consciously that putting his fathers armor back on has undone all of his work becoming himself after the Sarlacc he will have to stop using the bacta as it has already done all it can to heal his body and is now only a crutch. And he will finally act through the final steps of healing his mind and only then he will gain his strength back. In this show he will for the first time become the real Boba Fett and rise above being just a clone of his father.
17:03 While I didn't exactly see the water symbolism viewers are pointing out as a potential theme of the show, I did think that this episode had possible references to the 2011 Animated Film; Rango? You did mention, at 3:18, that Stephen Root was in this episode & his character was a water merchant. In Rango, Stephen Root voiced a banker known as Mr. Merrimack & the currency used at the bank he worked at was Water. Obviously it's a stretch but I can't be the only one who sees the possible similarities?
No release day of one of my favorite shows is complete without coming over here to see what you have to say Ryan. I appreciate your reviews of each episode. You enrich and enhance every one. So far, I'm not nearly as impressed with Book of Boba as Mando and some of the other Marvel shows. Tamura (and therefore Boba) seems past his prime. I want to love this show, but for me, it's just not quite there yet. Congrats on reaching 1 million subscribers!
There was also a nod in there to The Mandelorian. I think at 27:15 when Boba approaches the mayor's place, it was the first time they played Mando's score. Briefly I thought we might see him on screen for a moment.
I still feel like Boba Fett will end up becoming mandalore. Maybe I'm reaching too far but I do feel like this is a good opportunity to reintroduce some expanded universe characters into the new canon.
Danny Trejo is a big advocate for pit bulls and changing the way they are looked at. It seems this character is exactly the same for rancors. I love it. Also, I really hope this isn’t the last time we see Black Krrsattan in the series!
while i do agree that the tuskens were “in the wrong” for taking those speeder bikes, the dune sea is THEIR land, they weren’t intruding the pyke’s property in any means.
I didn't like the wookie fight either. I was always under the impression that a wookie could pull a man's arms off but this one is getting owned by Boba Fett and a bunch of teenagers. Being a huge fan of the old EU, I really did love the Dathomir reference. Also, lol @ "high speed chase". They were going slow af
I enjoyed the Easter Egg in this video the most. The one where your award for fans at the end of the vid showed the reflection of your biggest fan…Power Move. Ha! Cheers and keep up the awesome work!
Heh, I loved it. When the Hutts said that they brought Boba Fett a gift, I was like OMG, they got him a Danny Trejo, that is quite an honor! A most deadly creature. And Danny Trejo has a pet rancor, because, of course he does.
Thank YOU Ryan. Honestly, if I wasn’t watching your show every week, I’d have stopped watching Boba Fett. The symbolism and metaphors went right over my head.
At 11:19 minutes in If anyone noticed as well, the scene where the stormtrooper helmets were being spiked, if u look behind that u actually see the woman with the curly hair who was working in the dock whenever din djarin came to visit tattoine walking in the background with her droids. This could be a big lead up and hint to Mando being in the series in the flashbacks with boba taking an interest and watchful eye over din. Perhaps noticing his arrival.
Respectfully, (as far as we’ve seen in canon Star Wars) the technology surrounding the block of carbonite Han Solo was frozen in originally came from Cloud City not Jabba’s Palace. Beyond that Cloud City was a tibanna gas mining colony. We can speculate it was also importing heavy machinery and advanced technology. So my money is on the sound effects in this situation not meaning Jack 😁
While this is true, it was meant the tech that is at Jabba palace was used to thaw Solo from the carbonite, is also the same tech used to power the Bacta tank. Thus the same sound. It had nothing to do with where the carbonite technology came from originally.
@@arthurhuffer5842 go re-watch the scene with Luke in the bacta tank in Empire like I did; there’s absolutely no auditory easters eggs there for previously established canon bacta tanks… someone in the sound effects department is twisting your nostalgia… Like, assuming this is an actual Easter egg… what’s the point? What does it explain? What greater level of detail is provided with this connection? What kind of fan satisfaction is provided with these sound effects beyond pure unfocused nostalgia?
@@chazblank2717 Go re-read my comment. The sounds are coming from the tech that is at Jabba's palace. Was Luke in a bacta tank in Jabba's palace? No. So why would I go watch that scene? What's the point of anything? It's a cool little detail they used from the originals. That's it. It wasn't meant to be a ground breaking revelation.
Man, wouldn't it be cool if it is the Rancor from bad batch, and that it imprinted on omega! The trainer could be trying to trick boba that it likes him but when he tries to attack the fact he's omegas clone stops it.
With the Fight Scene with the Wookie, Maybe it was so Slow was because of the Costume the actor had on limited his vision. so they had todo it slowly for safety ... perhaps. Also with the Huts, You gota Remember Darth Vader Killed the Hut council so their Power base is Alot Weaker than before. So they can't afford more War and Death of their Family.
But as a director you have to account for these sorts of things, adjust the choreography so that speed isn't an issue I mean look at any of the Lightsaber fights in the old movies versus the prequels or sequels. They featured fewer acrobatics, but were still just as tense.
I think the branch that Boba was holding when he was looking at the fire belonged to the little boy, which made the entire massacre more heartfelt. No boy to be seen so there’s no confirmation that he was murder too, but Boba found the branch that he was playing with.
Those Power Ranger reminded me of bad oldschool movies where kids coming from rich parents chill around gas station and try to look cool, but in cheap and childish/colourful. The concept of cyborg-teenagers who grew up in the dirt of the working district in itself would have been so nice to explore more, it even could've been a callback to his tusken "family" when he teached them to get the respect they deserved. Would have done A LOT for character development, I mean...does anyone even remember the name of one of those Power Rangers? :D
Great recap as always. I'm really loving this show. Dances with wolves on tatooine. Boba is going to dispense justice and vengeance, cannot wait. Agree it was lazy fight choreography, but seeing Krrrsantan fight was still epic. The rancor portion was so well done, I am excited to see it bond with Boba. Seriously, love this show so much!
The chase scene with the mayor's assistant gave me Back to the Future chase vibes. Especially when those fruits fell into his car and was stuck. "I hate manure!"
I like the "take turns fight" with BK! I saw it as people giving others to try and take BK. Anytime BK tried to leave, someone would tap him; but not block anyone's move!
Seeing Ryan hold up the gold play button with a big goofy smile was awesome. You can really tell he loves doing these videos. Best of luck to you Ryan and of course Doug
Like others have pointed out - the stick was the child he befriended and since Disney can't show children dying....it was a very interesting way to tell us that the kid has also died, although judging by your observation, maybe they didn't quite hit the mark. Congrats on your success I do enjoy your break downs
Dude says boba gave jobs to the jobless yet the jobless had brand new bikes with no dust on them on a dessert planet, they couldn't have been doing it to rough.

Hey, Ryan, that "branch" was the Tusken kid's Training Gaffi Stick. Disney wanted to make it clear the biker gang killed the kids, without showing a dead kid.
11:10 I think it works, because it sort of demonstrates their inexperience. They're a scrappy street gang of misfit youths who were down on their luck, not trained soldiers. Running down the Mayor's assistant is one thing, but facing a battle-hardened, ex-gladiator, wookiee bounty hunter is beyond anything they've dealt with. It kinda makes sense they kept their distance. Keeping him off balance and stalling until reinforcements show up who know how to deal with him.
@@SuspiciousKoala dunno why you expect this guy to get stuff right lmao
Do you think the Bacta tank smells like bacon, now? Just saying.
Hey why don’t u like heavy spoilers like what’s going on between yall??
That branch though….. not from his vision quest. That was fashioned into his gaffe stick. The one he burned in this episode belong to the child tusken that he previously saved. Indicating his demise unfortunately
I jumped into the comments with the sole purpose of making sure someone beat me to it. Nice catch 🤘🏾 Keep up the good work ScreenCrush 🖖🏾
I came here to say this but knew in my heart it had already been said. :)
NOOOOOOOOOO
Hang on. Wasn’t that the training stick that belonged to the youngling? I took the pause as a reminder to us of the tragic loss he was dealing with.
Yeah. Take a look when Boba rides into the camp on the Bantha, the kid has the stick sat next to the Massif
Seeing him hesitate to throw the branch into the fire. That’s the part that really got me in this episode. It absolutely belonged to the Tusken youngling, which made the village being torn apart even more devastating. Never thought I’d feel sympathetic toward the Tusken Raiders, or Rancors. Lol or Boba for that matter. Since we’re seeing things from the perspective of Boba now, a light is being shown onto the things in the SW universe that we once believed to be dark or evil. I’m loving these different perspectives.
You are right. It was the younglings staff but he said it's part of the branch Boba used to make his own. 😬 oops
Most definitely the younglings stick. Not part of boba’s branch that became his staff like the screen crush guy stated.
Agreed, glad you brought this up
Agree it was the kids'. I hope we find out later he just dropped it and escaped somehow since we didn't see the body.
Came to make this comment. So glad you already did
That gaffe stick he hesitated to burn was the kids practice stick. That's why he took a moment. Rather than showing the dead kid, Disney opts to show the dead leader and then the kid's weapon.
Thank you!
yeah i’m surprised he missed that one tbh
We never saw the warrior Tusken woman though... My bet is that she shows-up in present-time to save the day somehow.
@@live2walk a bunch of people in another video said that we see her weapon get thrown into the fire too. So she most likely dead
So, what you're saying is the gang didn't just kill the men, but the women and children too?
Agreed that the Wookiee fight was underwhelming, but that street chase... OMG, it was painfully slow. Far from being a "high speed chase."
They could have walked and got there faster lol. BoB is DoA
Very to both
Thanks for the shoutouts, may the force be with you
He doesn’t like you bro. Just quit trying 😉 (jk love your channel too!)
AHahahaha both channels are Premium 5-Star! Cooperate! Do something together! Love both!!
@@blood.splatter.chatter you really missed an opportunity to say
Is what he said about not liking you aimed at Heavy Spoilers? Do a video about that. Weird, my 2 favorite movie/TV review channels don't like each other.
Two things to point out. First, the unfinished stick he was thinking about throwing in the fire wasn't his. It was from the child raider he befriended. This is confirmed in the descriptive audio of the episode. Second, an easter egg for Screen Crush, you can tell that the studio has a ceilling fan with four light fictures. You can see this in the reflection of the plaque at the end of the episode. This suggests that he may not be in a video store since we have a glimpse of reality he doesn't want us to see.
Lol the last one
Dudes! He is INSIDE THE MATRIX! That's why 😅🤣
@@daulusmoretto makes sense. Perhpas Doug is a voice that keeps him calm so he doesn't think about it. After all, he even mentioned, "We never have customers."
@@daulusmoretto And he's wearing a BLUE shirt...
Thank you for pointing that first one out. A lot of reaction channels I watched didn’t clock it and shrugged off who’s staff it belonged to and I was so disappointed
The branch was actually the tusken kid's toy gaffi stick.
I will never emotionally recover from this
Yup! I was hoping that maybe he had escaped, but technically we didn't see him either? maybe he got away somehow, and will come back later on in the series to save Boba from some kinda trap or capture, who knows! Unless. they showed the body and I completely missed it!!
Felt that moment 💔
Yes that was disneys way of indicating the child’s death without showing the body. Sad part of the show for sure.
Yes. Idk why people think differently. Shit was heartbreaking to see him throw it on the fire.
Congratulations Ryan and team on the gold play button, so well deserved. So grateful for the research you put into every video!
💯💯💯
I totally agree! What the world would be without our ScreenCrush team!
Agreed! Congratulations!
More subscribers than HeavySpoilers… PS I love you both! Haha
Are you guys shooting this video in an old dining room? Why is there a ceiling fan that looks like my grandma's house?
I really love how the Book of Boba Fett is going but I dislike the new speeders because they don’t fit in to Tatooine. They would have been better on Coruscant.
I interpreted the speeders either as a small offworld street gang that settled on Tatooine because they had no other option.... Or alternatively, theyre the New younger rebellious generation, breaking away from the status quo of their community.
This whole gang felt very unstarwarsy in my opinion. Their clothing, apperance, mannerisms and bikes.
Agreed. The gang, speeders and chase scene were extremely un-Star Wars. Looked more like the spy kids movies.
Can't afford water... but manage to find parts/keep their bikes mint on a backwater planet like tattoine.... woof.
@@MMadesen true
The fight with the wookie didnt bothered me that much. The speeder chase though did strike me as a bit slow, like it failed to convey the adrenaline rush a chase scene should. Just nitpicking, I'm enjoying the show a lot and seeing Trejo in a galaxy far away is an absolute treat
I think the branch he burns is the one the Tusken child had.
Yeah I agree. You see the child with the same stick at the beginning of the show. (When Boba leaves)
I also thought the branch was the Tusken child’s indicating that he was slaughtered in the raid.
that was my thought too...
Yeah, glad I’m not the only one that caught that blatant mistake 🤙
yeah he misinterpreted that one
Ordering the Rancor be fed is also showing Fett’s new way of running things. Jabba kept his Rancor starved so it would be extra aggressive towards it’s victims.
That makes sense when I heard Danny Trejo say there emotional creatures I was thinking nope ( I did not see badbatch) so all I was thinking was wow this is kinda. A new take
that failing bi-plane sound that was used for the Millenium Falcon was also used to an extent in Episode 1 when Anakin's pod racer stalls on the start line.
And in The Mandalorian whenever the Razor Crest is fucked.
10:17 I feel like the Pykes will prove to be the ones behind it all. Since they're shaping up to be (the main?) villains in the present, the showrunners may want them more ruthless in the past, too. They might've killed the tusken and framed the gang by using their symbol, knowing Boba would avenge his allies. This would take care of both groups for the Pykes, with Boba doing much of the work, and not making an enemy out of the guy who lead the successful assault on their train.
Congrats on 1 mil! Best breakdown channel on youtube…well, other than your mom.
The way the bikes moved during the chase reminded me of Nibbler on his Scooty Puff Jr. on Futurama
That was a pretty cool call back to Star Wars expanded universe The Witches of dathomir riding Rancor is right out of a novel called the courtship of Princess Leia even Luke in that story got to ride a rancor and get to know one and talk about how he regretted having to kill one in self-defense.
I love the references to the EU in this and the mandalorian. Also when Boba said he has rode bigger things then the Rancor, he was referring to the Holiday Special Ichthosaur
I love that book, it's quite raunchy in places... Stupid sexy prince Isolder
Also a mission in Empire at War!
Yeah, he mentioned the book in the episode.
@@francissellerdude He literally said that in this episode.
Krrsantan ripping Boba out of the tank scared the shit out of me 😂
Best part of the episode....he should've been fed to the rancorn.
The fight scene you mentioned being stale actually makes a bit of sense to me. The cyborgs strike me as being connoisseurs of weapons and tech, but not necessarily fighters. This was probably their first major fight (possibly their first real one). Their reserved actions were calculated. They were looking for an opening whilst making sure not to hurt their allies. Perhaps the fight would have looked cooler if it had more action, but that would have told a different story: that this team fights actively and practices frequently. I don't think that's the case though.
On the other hand, I hated the bike chase scene... it felt too slow.
You said it would be cool to see the forest witches in live action… BUT WE DID! Charal the forest witch (Night Sisters) appeared in 1985’s Ewoks: Battle for Endor!!!
Yeah!
Now that is a deep cut Star Wars reference!
12:13 the hutts are in a far weaker state than you think you mention the crimson dawn comic, in that comic series Vader killed of most of the hutt council leaving Jabba the some survived. So in less than a year the entire hutt hierarchy was remove. This also means that “the Big 5” are down to 3 at most.
Missed the Goonies homage during the market chase: the protocol droid’s reaction to the passing speeders is shot exactly like Rosalita and the police cars, complete with a little bit of janky fast-motion thrown in.
adios senoritaaaa
Too bad we didn’t get a pizza on the window.
Leia being identified as "the Huttslayer" due to a secret recording is a minor plot point in the canon novel Bloodline. Maybe it's not yet common knowledge around 9 ABY when this show is set, but by 28 ABY, the Nikto cartel headed by Rinnrivin Di knows that Leia killed Jabba. It's also revealed that this Nikto gang dominates Jabba's old territory by the time of the book, so it's possible we might see characters like Rinnrivin Di on this show too.
^ this!
Yess! God I hope something like this happens!
What is ABY? After baby yoda? 😀
@@christyacuna8166 "after battle of yavin" - basically, Post Empire
The standard date system for Star Wars refers to years before the Battle of Yavin (BBY) or years after the Battle of Yavin (ABY). If you're not familiar, the Battle of Yavin is the battle that happens during the climax of Episode 4, when Luke destroys the Death Star.
Congrats on the Gold Play Button! Well deserved! I watch every single video you put out and you never fail to entertain!
Two of my favorite youtubers!
10:40 when you talk about Luke and with such disappointment. it fills my heart also
I'll be so disappointed if the rancor is already bonded and a trap for Boba. It would be far more badass for Boba to become famous for riding around on a rancor.
I would prefer that. That would be his "Litter" that everyone keeps going on about
Yea I think it’s a trap though that’s the idea I got.
agreed, and it would be a great callback / reference to the image of boba riding that giant beast in the holiday special cartoon!
Don't worry, it must happen! After all didn't his people tame and ride the Mithosaur!!!...
Honestly most of the fights/action sequences (besides the train) have seemed really slow and inorganic. I noticed it in the first episode when he's surrounded. I thought maybe it was an editing thing, but you're right. The fight with the Wookie was even worse and the speeder chase seemed like it needed to be sped up, so I guess it's both choreography and editing. I'm really enjoying it plot wise though and the acting is incredible. Just odd that the action isn't living up to it's usual standards
Felt the same, the action seems slow, except with the train scene in the past one, that was finely done
I felt the "high speed" chase in Solo was very slow as well. It may be a problem with hovering vehicles and the lack of wheels to show speed.
They may have poured all of their production cost into later fight scenes
Bro what, the train scene with the tuskins was so fast and badass
@@slim..reaper I agree. I said that was the exception - "besides the train"
10:39 pretty sure that stick belonged to the Tusken child which Boba protected, and that’s what gave him some pause
The Black Krrsantan jump-scare made me literally scream in front of my wife. Embarrassing, but totally worth it. Superb editing! Turning out to be a great series. Another fantastic breakdown from ScreenCrush. Word to your mother.
The only youtuber I genuinely love and believe deserves more success than there is to offer. The nerdy dedication to the fictions and characters we all love really makes you feel like a childhood best friend just as hyped about every little morsel of detail as us. Thank you Ryan, can't wait to see how many more million you earn!
I would reaally like to see Witches of Dathomir! Their dynamic with Maul and his brother was amazing.
All of the witches are dead besides the one we saw in Jedi Fallen order
I don't think that was a branch piece. Pretty sure it was the Tuscan Yougling's training stick
Thank you for 1 Million subscribers!
When Danny was talking about Rancor's, I couldn't help but noticed the parallels with Pit Bulls & other dog's that if in the hands of the wrong owner, can be poorly trained, abused, and used as a weapon, when in fact, Pit Bulls are extremely loyal, loving, and playful.
In the right hands of someone whose willing to put in the hard work to not only train the animal, but train themselves, the bond can be extremely strong. I got emotional to see how much both Danny's character, and Boba actually cared about the Rancor, and it's well-being, instead of writing it off as a killing monster.
The Tuskin’s didn’t “have it coming”. As pointed out in the last episode they have a right to the land and should be the sole faction granting protection and safe passage. These allusions to colonialism are very obvious and furthered by these first three episodes having a focus on Fett learning their traditions.
Yeah that was a horrible take.
Thank you. I thought the same thing. Replace "Tuskens" with "Native Americans" in that sentence. "The Native Americans had it coming". That is a crazy take. And right before that he said "this is really sad, ESPECIALLY THE DEAD BANTHAS". What the fuck dude.
Perhaps he was more meaning that it was not something that was completely unexpected. They/Boba had just beaten up the biker gang, stolen their bikes and destroyed the train the gang were meant to be 'protecting'.
But yes, a poor choice of phrasing.
Yeah, this was a horrendous take and turned me off the whole video.
Yeah, the "action" in this episode was very underwhelming. I'm surprised, because they did some great things in Mando. And that chase scene was extremely corny.
It reminded me of when I would drive my speeder in the MMO.
It's weird, the only episode of the series I've thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish is the single episode that hasn't been directed by Robert Rodriguez. Not sure how to feel about that since he's the showrunner.
@@kylewolfe_ I mean George didn't know too much about at directing back in the days right? I still love the story but it's always the pacing that wasn't done very well since Mando s2e6. Hope he can improve if there are future seasons.
@@zef9151 Robert Rodriguez has been directing for 30 years. He isn’t at all inexperienced.
@@kylewolfe_ I also didn't like his episode on the Mandalorian. That episode with baby Yoda meditating on the rocks looked like a cheap 60's Star Trek episode. I don't think he was the best choice for this.
I wondered for a moment why Boba didn’t keep the Chieftan’s Gaffi stick and then I realized that I’m sure Boba has come to know the value of a chieftain stick, and why he had not yet earned the ability to have one yet
While episode 1 was ok. Episode two was great! Episode 3 has been the worst so far for me in my opinion! I was disappointed with how quickly the tuskens were eliminated, the action wasn’t great and the speeder bike gang felt out of place. The speeder bike chase through the streets was a major setback for me with this series. Unfortunately you can’t rely on this series being good just by bringing back familiar faces, species and calls to other works. It’s still early days yet but I hope it gets better from here!
Yeah, it was a poorly put together episode. Their editors aren't doing a great job.
I agree
I agree 100%.
And the one thing in common.......... Directed by Robert Rodriguez. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy Robert Rodriguez' style in directing, but not in Star Wars. It just feels out of place. I had no idea who directed this episode, but about half way thru........ (*Cough*DannyTrejo*Cough*) I guessed it was him.
this might be a bottle episode with the pikes arriving I imagine the next episode will be action packed. The animation likely got farmed out for this episode as it nowhere near what electric light and magic would do.
this is how i think Boba's house will be like
Boba, the crime boss
Fennec Shan, Boba's Righthand, and advisor
(if i'm lucky) Black Krrsantan, Boba's enforcer
The Gamorreans, Boba's bodyguards
8D8, Boba's majordomo
the Mods, Boba's informants
The Rancor trainer....the rancor trainer
Thoughts?
That.....don't make sense
That was awesome as usual. Thank you. Congrats on the well-deserved 1M. LOL at "your mom" 16:45
I really didn't like the cyberpunk scooter riders. Felt like it didn't belong in this universe that's very dirty and gritty. The bright colours of their scooter things really stood out in a badway, looking like something out of power rangers. And the "car chase" was terrible and looked like something out of a video game rather than a TV show. Not to mention it felt SO slow, like walking pace or like trying to run in a dream
100% right defo didn't fit in the only flaw in a great series tho
It reminded me of bad oldschool movies where kids coming from rich parents chill around gas station and try to look cool, but in cheap and childish/colourful.
The concept of cyborg-teenagers who grew up in the dirt of the working district in itself would have been so nice to explore more, it even could've been a callback to his tusken "family" when he teached them to get the respect they deserved. Would have done A LOT for character development, I mean...does anyone even remember the name of one of those Power Rangers? :D
They started goin that route with niktos chopper speeders. Now this lambretta gang. Looks like we’ll end up with a biker gang vs scooter gang brawl. Not a fan of either.
Sadly, it gave me Spy Kids 3 flashbacks (does being forced to watch that entire trilogy count as parent abuse?)
I thought it was so out of place that it was cheesily hilarious. I was laughing the whole time. I know it was out of place entirely but for some reason I thought it was hilarious 😅
10:46 the branch was not a piece he brought back nor was he contemplating it, the branch was owned by the youngling tusken who was with him for a large part of episode 2.
The stick matches to the exact one the kid have, he had saved this kid before and in that shot the demise of Boba fett is shown.
I was talking with Caleb from the Canadian Bushcraft Channel the other week about the Tusken Raiders and the different feats of war Boba Fett had performed. In Plains culture there are 4 feats that must be performed to become a War Chief: 1) steal an enemies horse. Fett did this when he came back to the village with all those speeder bikes. 2) Lead a successful war party. Successfully capturing the train definitely counts. 3) laying hands on an enemy without taking their life. The captured Pikes from the train raid who are released fit the bill and finally, 4) stealing an enemies weapon. We see weapons being unloaded from the train heist as well. For anyone interested in reading more about these feats of war, look up Joe Medicine Crow who was the last modern War Chief of the Crow Nation who successfully completed all four tasks during WW2
1st of all, the train was a BATTLE. Not a war. If the WAR had been won, the Tuskens would NOT be dead now.
2nd, even if the Tuskens are BASED off of a Native American tribe, that doesn’t mean it’s the same for a tribe of natives on a completely different planet/galaxy. The rules aren’t even the same for different tribes in the same parts of America!!!
@@YouSpewed Yes, we’re all sad the Tuskens died. Though, leading a successfully war party does not mean winning a war, it can be various things, leading a war party (an assembled group of warriors) into battle and meeting your objectives (like burning down a fort) or lead them on a raid etc. Obviously variation exists from nation to nation and they change over time, like the one about horses. Nobody said its the same for them, the point of all this backstory to their way of life is to expose us to more of their way of life, learning, comparing, and contrasting from others, like my own. Mississauga’s have very little in common with the day to day living of Tuskens, but why would we? We’re woodland people. All of us are exploring this world through the eyes of Boba Fett, would he have known if there were specific accolades offered to warriors in Tusken culture? Probably not, why would he? Would the writers of this show even know that? Probably not, why would they? Which is why I made the comment in the first place, its pretty cool that Boba Fett did all those things even though it was probably just written to lift these different tropes from old westerns and add repulsorlifts.
@@keithmontreuil6726 Ok. That makes more sense. What DOESN’T make sense is the fact that when they took him as a slave, that he decided to stay with them, instead of escaping. He had no idea whether they would take him in as one of their own or just enslave him again.
Edit: Why do you assume that we are all sad that they died? That’s like assuming he would ever take the chance of returning to his captors, instead of escaping.
What I love the most about these boba videos, is when you talk about Matt Berry, you show Dark Place clips, very under appreciated show
Minor correction - the little monsters you keep referring to as ‘Bubo’ are actually called ‘Frog-Dogs’. Bubo (short for Buboicullarr) is actually the name of the individual Frog Dog that Jabba kept as a pet seen in the throne room scenes in ROTJ! He even had an elaborate back story where he saved Jabba’s life from an assassination attempt.
Been waiting patiently all day for this!
For real!
Literally haha
Same
All week!!!!!!
Mehh new rockstars is 10x better but I'll take this one till they post
A couple things:
1. The fight scene with Black Krrsantan was quite underwhelming. It could've been so bad ass! As a famed wookiee bounty hunter, he really has the strength to rip all of these characters in half with his bare hands. He also could rip the gamorian guards in half too. It felt like his character got a huge power nerf. I think they should've approached this fight differently. But that's my opinion. Also - Fennec should've been more involved I think. Would've been cool!
2. The chase scene feels like something out of a Austin Powers - so slow and the mopeds look so out of place
I think it was a 6/10 because it had some highlights but - it missed on a couple potential big hitters. I.e. imagine if the fight scene and the chase scene were amazing!
Also congrats on hitting 1M subs!
Agree the speeder chase felt terrible. I loved everything else except the action scenes. Fight n chase.. Episode felt claustrophobic.
Weakest episode by far. Robert Rodriguez needs to be booted as a Star Wars director. This episode had a stupid, silly Spy Kids vibe and it completely took me out of the established universe.
Like why ain’t bobba just fly up and use his jet pack missle already
Agreed. It felt more like a scene where the new kids could shine, and they didn’t…
All I kept thinking was how everyone keeps sneaking into Boba’s palace and attack him, and he keeps being saved by the inept guards that are working for him. It’s not a good look, Boba!
I really felt like the chase was made on the Star Wars equivalent of mobility scooters rather than speeder bikes. Slow doesn’t begin to describe it, and it was just another stupid scene to let the new kids shine, and again they didn’t.
They were what bothered me most about the episode. They have a stupid gimmick, ugly unfitting colour schemes and lame personalities. I want badasses, not power rangers.
With the Witches riding rancors, also could be a nod to the Empire at War games, since in the expansion you can actually get they as units that ride racor around.
Forces of corruption was great, Silri was the nightsister that had the pet rancor and the lightsaber whip
The ceiling fan in the reflection of the plaque got me dying😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"They are half man half machine."
"We are the borg. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile"
10:37
Ryan: "Boba hesitates to burn a portion of the branch he brought back from his vision quest."
Wrong. That's not a branch from Boba's brain-lizard-fueled vision quest. It's the small practice gaderffii stick that he took from the child when he made his escape attempt. He was mourning the death of the child who died along with the new family Boba had found for himself. This is the second time he lost his family which reveals his raison d'etre (driving purpose) which is to get revenge for this massacre and make Tattooine a safe place for Tuskens to live in peace.
My parents actually knew the original actor for Bib fortuna so he was always like one of my favourite characters. Seeing him at the end bf of the mandalorian (not the same guy) I was so hype
@@DoctorZorders oh that’s so cool, love it
@@DoctorZorders I thought Bib Fortuna in the Mando S2 finale was played by veteran Lucasfilm sound editor and General Grievous voice actor Matthew Wood?
10:40 I don’t think it was a piece of his staff. I think it was the child Tuskens staff. Hints to why he was sad throwing it in the fire.
The three Tuskan characters represent the three stages of Bobas life: child, warrior and leader. On first contact with each one, the child beats him up, the warrior beats him up but the leader excepts him. This is because the show is about him contending with the fact that he isn’t a child or a warrior anymore and that it’s time for him to be a leader now.
The dream vision sequence in Ep.2 shows us two trees surrounded by water. The large tree is Jango and the small tree is Boba back when they lived on Kamino. He’s drawn towards the Jango tree but it suffocates him. This is because he is still attached to his father. He struggles to break free and when he does he walks away from his father but takes a small piece of Jango with him, the branch he proceeded to craft into his own Gaffi stick. Immediately after this he experiences a rebirth.
When Krrsantan pulls him out of the bacta pod he goes for his armor but it doesn’t help him, the Gaffi stick does. This is because his fathers armor is power which he inherited but the Gaffi stick is power which he forged himself.
Boba is stronger in the flashbacks on purpose. This is because when he is separated from his armor, strangely, he feels stronger than he has at any point in his life before. When he gets the armor back in The Mandalorian he kicks ass at first but as we’ve seen, after a few days or weeks he begins to feel weak for some reason. So to deal with this he continues to go to the bacta pod to heal this physical damage causing his weakness. Except there’s a problem: it’s not physical damage, it’s emotional damage. He is traumatized by watching his father die and he is attached to becoming the same ruthless bounty hunter his father was. But is this who Boba is or is it just who his father was? Has Boba ever considered just being Boba or has he always been obsessed with the idea of becoming Jango fett? He is after all a carbon copy of jango.
So once he realizes consciously that putting his fathers armor back on has undone all of his work becoming himself after the Sarlacc he will have to stop using the bacta as it has already done all it can to heal his body and is now only a crutch. And he will finally act through the final steps of healing his mind and only then he will gain his strength back.
In this show he will for the first time become the real Boba Fett and rise above being just a clone of his father.
17:03 While I didn't exactly see the water symbolism viewers are pointing out as a potential theme of the show, I did think that this episode had possible references to the 2011 Animated Film; Rango?
You did mention, at 3:18, that Stephen Root was in this episode & his character was a water merchant. In Rango, Stephen Root voiced a banker known as Mr. Merrimack & the currency used at the bank he worked at was Water. Obviously it's a stretch but I can't be the only one who sees the possible similarities?
These episodes so far, especially this one have been very strangely paced/ written
Well we actually saw a night sister in live action In 1985 ewoks battle for endor
Forest witch*
Man this guy is truly DA BEST in finding Easter eggs and explaining references. Very well done!
No release day of one of my favorite shows is complete without coming over here to see what you have to say Ryan. I appreciate your reviews of each episode. You enrich and enhance every one.
So far, I'm not nearly as impressed with Book of Boba as Mando and some of the other Marvel shows. Tamura (and therefore Boba) seems past his prime. I want to love this show, but for me, it's just not quite there yet.
Congrats on reaching 1 million subscribers!
I agree with all parts of your comment here
There was also a nod in there to The Mandelorian. I think at 27:15 when Boba approaches the mayor's place, it was the first time they played Mando's score. Briefly I thought we might see him on screen for a moment.
I still feel like Boba Fett will end up becoming mandalore. Maybe I'm reaching too far but I do feel like this is a good opportunity to reintroduce some expanded universe characters into the new canon.
I think the theme sounds like something Oompa Loompas would sing while roasting the chubby fingers of greedy children around a campfire.
Danny Trejo is a big advocate for pit bulls and changing the way they are looked at. It seems this character is exactly the same for rancors. I love it. Also, I really hope this isn’t the last time we see Black Krrsattan in the series!
while i do agree that the tuskens were “in the wrong” for taking those speeder bikes, the dune sea is THEIR land, they weren’t intruding the pyke’s property in any means.
Both the Wookie fight and the speeder chase were SUPER underwhelming....
I didn't like the wookie fight either. I was always under the impression that a wookie could pull a man's arms off but this one is getting owned by Boba Fett and a bunch of teenagers.
Being a huge fan of the old EU, I really did love the Dathomir reference. Also, lol @ "high speed chase". They were going slow af
I enjoyed the Easter Egg in this video the most. The one where your award for fans at the end of the vid showed the reflection of your biggest fan…Power Move. Ha! Cheers and keep up the awesome work!
Heh, I loved it. When the Hutts said that they brought Boba Fett a gift, I was like OMG, they got him a Danny Trejo, that is quite an honor! A most deadly creature. And Danny Trejo has a pet rancor, because, of course he does.
I thought I was odd that the guy with the gun was the first person to be hit by the wookie. Kinda defeats the purpose of a gun.
I loved this episode and I’m very much enjoying this series so far. 😊
I’m really enjoying your content bro, thank you.
Thank YOU Ryan. Honestly, if I wasn’t watching your show every week, I’d have stopped watching Boba Fett. The symbolism and metaphors went right over my head.
At 11:19 minutes in If anyone noticed as well, the scene where the stormtrooper helmets were being spiked, if u look behind that u actually see the woman with the curly hair who was working in the dock whenever din djarin came to visit tattoine walking in the background with her droids. This could be a big lead up and hint to Mando being in the series in the flashbacks with boba taking an interest and watchful eye over din. Perhaps noticing his arrival.
Respectfully, (as far as we’ve seen in canon Star Wars) the technology surrounding the block of carbonite Han Solo was frozen in originally came from Cloud City not Jabba’s Palace.
Beyond that Cloud City was a tibanna gas mining colony. We can speculate it was also importing heavy machinery and advanced technology. So my money is on the sound effects in this situation not meaning Jack 😁
While this is true, it was meant the tech that is at Jabba palace was used to thaw Solo from the carbonite, is also the same tech used to power the Bacta tank. Thus the same sound. It had nothing to do with where the carbonite technology came from originally.
@@arthurhuffer5842 go re-watch the scene with Luke in the bacta tank in Empire like I did; there’s absolutely no auditory easters eggs there for previously established canon bacta tanks… someone in the sound effects department is twisting your nostalgia…
Like, assuming this is an actual Easter egg… what’s the point? What does it explain? What greater level of detail is provided with this connection? What kind of fan satisfaction is provided with these sound effects beyond pure unfocused nostalgia?
@@chazblank2717 Go re-read my comment. The sounds are coming from the tech that is at Jabba's palace. Was Luke in a bacta tank in Jabba's palace? No. So why would I go watch that scene?
What's the point of anything?
It's a cool little detail they used from the originals. That's it. It wasn't meant to be a ground breaking revelation.
Man, wouldn't it be cool if it is the Rancor from bad batch, and that it imprinted on omega!
The trainer could be trying to trick boba that it likes him but when he tries to attack the fact he's omegas clone stops it.
bro that is one hell of a prediction
@@brandonberens782 I just think that would be freaking awesome.
@@BadgerOWesley same
This Rancor is a boy, Muchi was a girl.
With the Fight Scene with the Wookie, Maybe it was so Slow was because of the Costume the actor had on limited his vision. so they had todo it slowly for safety ... perhaps. Also with the Huts, You gota Remember Darth Vader Killed the Hut council so their Power base is Alot Weaker than before. So they can't afford more War and Death of their Family.
But as a director you have to account for these sorts of things, adjust the choreography so that speed isn't an issue I mean look at any of the Lightsaber fights in the old movies versus the prequels or sequels. They featured fewer acrobatics, but were still just as tense.
Congratulations Ryan. You made Screencrush what it is today. I visit the site for news and such but your videos is the heart of everything.
I think the branch that Boba was holding when he was looking at the fire belonged to the little boy, which made the entire massacre more heartfelt. No boy to be seen so there’s no confirmation that he was murder too, but Boba found the branch that he was playing with.
Those Power Ranger reminded me of bad oldschool movies where kids coming from rich parents chill around gas station and try to look cool, but in cheap and childish/colourful.
The concept of cyborg-teenagers who grew up in the dirt of the working district in itself would have been so nice to explore more, it even could've been a callback to his tusken "family" when he teached them to get the respect they deserved.

I will say, the speeder chase was alot slower thank u had anticipated. It just felt like it dragged a little to long.
Great recap as always. I'm really loving this show. Dances with wolves on tatooine. Boba is going to dispense justice and vengeance, cannot wait. Agree it was lazy fight choreography, but seeing Krrrsantan fight was still epic.
The rancor portion was so well done, I am excited to see it bond with Boba. Seriously, love this show so much!
The chase scene with the mayor's assistant gave me Back to the Future chase vibes. Especially when those fruits fell into his car and was stuck. "I hate manure!"
Always love the ‘Your Mom’ jokes!!! I look forward to it every time and you catch me every time!!
CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ryan Arey on reaching 1 Million subscribers!!!!! Keep up the excellent work.
I like the "take turns fight" with BK! I saw it as people giving others to try and take BK. Anytime BK tried to leave, someone would tap him; but not block anyone's move!
Congrats on getting the 1 milli play button, we all appreciate the research and hardwork y´all put in these videos.
@10:38 The stick is the kid’s practice gaffi stick. Leading you to believe the kid was killed without Disney showing a dead kid.
Seeing Ryan hold up the gold play button with a big goofy smile was awesome. You can really tell he loves doing these videos. Best of luck to you Ryan and of course Doug
The sound in the bacta tank was less machine and more fetal heartbeat, which is appropriate for floating in a calming, peaceful, healing tank. 😊
Like others have pointed out - the stick was the child he befriended and since Disney can't show children dying....it was a very interesting way to tell us that the kid has also died, although judging by your observation, maybe they didn't quite hit the mark. Congrats on your success I do enjoy your break downs
When Milton Waddams made his cameo I was expecting him to say "I...I believe you have my hydrospanner..."
Christ. I’ve watched so many of these but the ‘your mum’ gags still get me ever time. I’m 34. With a child. Excellent….
Dude says boba gave jobs to the jobless yet the jobless had brand new bikes with no dust on them on a dessert planet, they couldn't have been doing it to rough.
Peli Motto, the owner of the hanger with pit droids in Mandolorian, makes a cameo when you see the Stormtrooper helmets.
Congrats on the gold plaque! I love that I can see your humble ceiling fan reflecting in it. Stay grounded!
the mom jokes gets me every time lmao
The bikes that the gang who Bobba hired, are the "basic" lightsaber colors
Doug is such a good helper.
Always glad to see a Garth Marenghis Darkplace reference.
