‘Knowing more about a Star Wars character only makes em cooler’. That was so accurate it hurt
"when will we find out more about Yoda and Grogu's species?!" Actually..... mystery is good in Star Wars.
The clone wars did a lot of characters right. Dooku, Maul, Anakin, they all got cooler.
@@szabok1999 true, but those were more continuations of their stories or building onto what was already there. Some of the recent stuff is just completely fabricated and not good.
I think you wrote the opposite of what you meant.
@@acgonzales7 Yeah it js puzzling how the writers don't seem to understand we just want to learn more about the characters the shows/movies are named after. Not the 50 extra side characters that appear out of thing air and just exist to fill up the runtime. I was really hoping this would actually be a bounty hunter show where he hunts bouties but silly me thinking Disney would do something so simple.
Robot chicken Vader: “The book of anyone who isn’t Boba Fett” was pretty….. WIZARD wasn’t it son?
Everyone: MANDO IS BRINGING IT BACK!!!
I understood that reference.
Having Mando say “wizard” justified lol the last 5 years of my life lol
i lost it at the farmeronly reference. Well played sir, well played!
I just love the inclusion of Robin Hood men in tights 😂
'50% dramatic entrance' *Shows Grogu waddeling in*
I bet, hiding in some Disney office, there is a fully-fleshed storyboard of the mod gang saving their money and building a Boba Fett themed vespa speeder that they then gift to him right before their final confrontation with the Pike Syndicate.
One of the scorpion droids blows it up and Boba says "eh?? Now they've gone too far."
On the plus side. Boba Fett's right hand woman is Chunli from the Street Fighter live action movie! 🎥
Men in tights at the end was perfect. also the "And twins;" reference, hooray for mid to late 30s! what happened to movies like Men in tights? it really was a golden age for stupid comedies.
1:38 To be fair, he _was_ fighting a wookie _unarmed_ in that scene... That's not exactly a great situation to be in, beskar armor or not.
and he left without a single scratch
I want Honest Trailer for The Mitchells vs The Machines
Oh please do Robin Hood Men in tights. One of the greatest Mel Brooks movies ever
Genius
This show feels like when you've already beaten the main story and doing all of the side quests
Or playing mediocre DLC.
Because it is
Or the opposite, where you've become a level-20 badass by doing nothing but side quests, but then sort of half-accidentally start the story missions because the last remaining game mode is locked behind the final boss.
No even good side quests.
LOL, Pefect
The issue is they already turned mando into everything fett was supposed to be. And for some reason they thought they had to do something different.
It would've been wayyyy cooler if he was unhinged and trying to punish every sleight with death and it was fennec who had to reign him in "if you're a killing maniac they'll fear you but they won't respect you" and his story is coming to terms with his old way not working for him any longer. Instead of "oh he completely changed from the sarlacc" except none of his aspirations denote that
Except Mando has a moral code whereas boba has always been in it for the money , they definitely could've still made a good story without changing his character
Much better idea.
This man ideas! Holy crap! I wanna see this version!!
Fans would love it but it wouldn’t fly with Disneys kid friendly vibe
The sad part is he was done so well in the mandalorian
Going from "My child is a honor's student" to "the dropout" is neat
Lol one of fastest Double-Takes
I legit LOLed
Neato.
Don't care for star wars, this was okay at best. Then that joke came... I actually laughed out loud (lol)
Does Din know Grogu dropped out or does he just think his kid is so amazing he aced all his classes in a week? XD
The writers: “let’s make him a crime lord that does no crimes”. Production team: “fucking genius”.
The fucking state of disney's writting room.
i mean he did do crimes, he killed a whole bunch of people, and lets not forget the property damage that rancor did.
Imagine how I'd be if Martin Scorsese directed it
He's just extralegal yo
We need more vespas
This show highlights one of the most frustrating aspects of Star Wars being owned by Disney- they can't make up their minds about how violent a show can be.
Mando in the Book of Boba was pretty violent, which make it even more bizarre that Boba is less.
This show is to Starwars what Hawkeye was to Marvel. A potentially compelling story that becomes unwatchable when the show has to be stuffed with too many ingredients that scream "Disney!".
Both shows make me worry for every streaming show going forward on this platform.
@@IronKotetsu I liked Hawkeye and Loki tho.
Which is especialy funny because they made Mission to Mars which still haunts my memories.
@@chasehedges6775 its fine to have bad taste
Book of boba fett is like that crush you've had for years until you actually get into a relationship and realize its not like you imagined.
Then you realize that your other best friend, the mandalorian. Who was there for you at the worst times (rise of skywalker) was actually your one true love all a long
Yes, that sums it up rather nicely!
@@CringerKitty It really does
"This is the Way" starring Kate Hudson, coming soon from Disney!
I think that a bounty hunter is not a good choice for a protagonists for a kids shows or well a show for every age. I think that Boba fett and the others bounty hunters and crime lords would be better for a R or maybe PG 13 rating but well is Disney so everybody have to be a good guy and a good role model.
Wow this struck me right in the hearttttt
Poor Boba Fett. Nobody seems to know how to use him in a story, even when he's the main character.
He had a fine introduction and role in Empire Strikes Back, but I like his major role more in The Book of Boba Fett.
He was great in The Mandalorian, not sure what happened to him between that show and his own, his whole personality seemed to change
The EU knew how to make him a great character
@@AndreNitroX canon comics too
Even Temuera knew how to write his character better.
"50% dramatic entrance... 50% space meetings"
lmao that montage killed me xD
The "Hush, Little Baby..." lullaby music was perfection
"And 10% shoehorned recreation moments of really old movies that don't make that much sense if you think about them for like three seconds!"
@@thatjalopy like the Godfather scene with the space oranges? Haha indeed, I laughed out loud at that
Okay, after that tease, now you HAVE to do a Robin Hood Men in Tights trailer.
Here here!
I hereby declare, from this day forth, all toilets in the kingdom be called "Johns"
Best robin hood movie ever!
Great, now I gotta watch that again
Blinkin needs the spotlight
What kept distracting me during the Boba Fett series was the Tuskens use a lot of wood. Like so much wood. Their weapons, their tent frames, their fires, the things they stake prisoners to? All wooden. But there isn't a freakin tree (outside of a dream sequence) on the planet. We've seen like 50 movies and TV shots of Tattooine and not a tree to be found, but the sand people literally burn through wood like it wronged them somehow.
😂😂
They are exceedingly rich and import it from other planets far away by the rocket-load. The same is true of the steam-punk masks and pre-distressed high couture sack-cloth.
Well, maybe the wood comes from plants that are below the surface and use water that us below the ground.
I always thought that there were hidden oasis that only the tuskens knew about.
Well, now you know why there are no trees. They've all been made into tent poles.
Show genuinely felt like Animal Crossing half the time. Making friends, catching animals, meetings with the mayor, walking around and talking to townsfolk. Yup, checks out.
Except one is good and one is bad
Grogu walking in with that dramatic music had me dying
Same
go to schol becase teecher says go to schol? am i circus animel or what? i make yt videes becase thats my dreem. liv my dreem is what i do. thats what i do. hopefooly the videes are good for you deer sha
They see me rollin, they hatin
"So what do we know about Boba Fett?"
"Well, he's a bounty hunter."
"OK so first, he won't be doing that any more."
"Does he still do work for the Hutts?"
"Nope, hates them now."
"So just his own freelance bad guy?"
"Nah, we can't have a main character be a bad guy! It's fine, people will know him from the other stuff.
"OK. Well he is always wearing his armor with the helmet."
"That's more The Mandalorian's thing now. So he'll almost never wear his helmet."
"At least he can still jetpack around a lot?"
"Well he can. But barely will."
"Ah. Well this is just after *Return of the Jedi*, so at least we get to see a 40 year old badass loner."
"Would you settle for a 60 year old and the friends he meets along the way?"
"Perfect."
It's not like he keeps saying that he's not a bounty hunter or anything. Oh and when the actor tells the director that he feels he's talking too much and then is told don't worry about it... yeah show has issues.
Lol. This sounds like a Pitch Meeting in the making.
Producer: I guess it's going to be hard to bring back a character who was supposed to have died by being eaten by a monster in the middle of the desert?
Pitch Guy: Actually, it's going to be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Spot on
The worst part is we already saw him in the Mandalorian and he's different in that too
"Would you settle for watching an old man stagger around the desert, getting beaten up repeatedly and then befriending some teenagers with Vespas?"
That clip from "Robin Hood: Men in Tights" and "Twiiiiiins" had me in literal tears. This one was hilarious!
Absolutely kills me that they got Matt Berry to voice a Droid that does nothing but read off meeting announcements.
literal waste of talent.
Meet Fennec Shand, our resident strong woman, who has zero personality traits aside from standing around, looking cool and mistaking her scenes for the rehearsal takes!
I was just glad to hear Laszlo Cravensworth voice a droid, ngl.
But yeah, kind of a waste of talent.
The Book of Clem Fandango.
@@IsaiahRichards692 Hey, sometimes she looks cool while moving!
Book of Boba Fett should've been Narcos in SPACE. Crime connections, building up power, squaring off with rivals while keeping a careful balance with the populace and various authorities. It could've been great. Instead it was just... empty.
Which reminds me, Narcos is a badass show.
People say it was a bad idea to make Boba a main character but it would have worked if the writers actually tried and make this Narcos Breaking Bad esque show
Both star Pedro Pascal.
@Gian Carlo Rosero it would be amazing but you're right no way Disney would allow something like that
Welp off i go to watch Narcos
This is why we need a Star-Wars sitcom about random Imperial middle-class citizens trying to get a raise or something, I've had enough with pre-existing characters whose interconnected stories only serve to make the galaxy seem smaller.
Ah, you probably haven;t heard of Auralnauts. A YT channel of talented writers that make the BEST parodies of SW ever. Check it out :)
@@danielciocilteu3545 Dang, I haven't thought about the sitcom idea since I first posted this comment a year ago. Auralnauts you say? I'll check em out, thanks for the recommendation.
The main problem was that the show was basically How Boba Lives In Retirement.
It’s like if Lord of the Rings had all been how Frodo deals with obnoxious neighbors in the Shire.
The Book of Sackville-Baggins
I could deal with a DOwnton Abbey spinoff of the Shire
Except I’m guessing a show about Frodo in the shire would be a lot more entertaining.
now i want a Neighbours style drama set in the shire
400th like
The problem is, they already made a great Boba Fett show that was called The Mandalorian.
This is how you pass the torch, make the original look so bad everyone forgets about him. That's what the sequel trilogy was too, those original heroes? They all suck, look here's your new younger, more diverse, better ones.
THIS
That's doubly true, in that The Mandalorian could have easily just been Boba Fett all along, just with some personality tweaks. That raised the bar too high for Boba, it seems.
@@khsuki1 Don't forget, in a way George Lucas actually made Boba Fett himself retroactively more diverse!
Not sure why the umbrage over diversity. The primary gang in the original trilogy included a younger white male, older white male, a woman, a black male, two robots, and a Wookie. The sequel group was smaller, but it included a woman, a black male, a light-skinned male actor whose diversity status doesn't matter because it's Oscar Isaac, the very same Wookie, and a robot. Not really much of a difference, right?
@@redsoxu571 Maybe the real Boba was the friends we made along the way.
A wise person once said, "Do, or do not. There is no try." Jon Favreau should have taken heed of that bit of advice. If you are gong to make a TV show about Boba Fett becoming a crime boss, then do that. Don't spend four episodes skirting around that idea, with lots of thematically repetitive flashbacks, then give up half way through by shifting the focus on to another character/set of characters. Jon Favreau owes Temuera Morrison a massive apology.
months later, but Favreau wasnt the show runner. It was Robert Rodriguez
The cyberpunk crew was so aggressively off-tone for star wars that it physically hurt every time they showed up on screen
They were like Mattel cyberpunk, seen through 1950's glasses.
They looked straight outta a Disney Channel Original Movie
You mean diaper riders?
At the very least they should be on the upper levels of coresaunt not fucking tatooine
I liked the girl. she's pretty
I could have gotten over how slow the show was if Fett wasn't so gormless about starting his empire. He literally just went around like "I am the new king of crime. It's my first day tho, what do I do?" This show has formally established that Boba Fett is not cunning, ruthless, or particularly dangerous. He's just a guy with armor.
Doesn’t really lend itself to the idea of the guy walking into a palace, murdering the current ruler and sitting on a throne above his fresh corpse, does it?
@@TheCoolCucumber and here I was hoping that Maybe just maybe Disney was done with doing these sorts of character re-writes. Especially on things that John Favreau is overseeing.
The writers of this show seem to have COMETELY forgotten that Boba Fett was a villain. He was a bad guy. He killed for money. He tried to murder Jedi on the spot. He worked for the most evil and sinister people in the galaxy when he knew they were corrupt. He knew they blew up planets and ran crime rings and he didn't care.
Then one day the people he tried to kill and who tried to kill him SHOW UP IN HIS CITY and he immediately joins up with them (talking about Grogu being the apprentice of Luke who had many fights with Boba and nearly got him killed) literally WEEKS before the start of the show... Just what in the f*** were these people thinking when they made this??
@@biggusy25 George Lucas must be spinning in his grave.
@@immortalpoet rip
I could’ve forgiven everything about this show if at the end Fett is in a position where the mayor or someone isn’t cooperating and he says “Screw it” and shoots him in the head or something. Heck, when Shand killed the mayor and all the other crime lords I was hopeful for a second that that was Boba. Then I remembered he had sent Shand out to do that, instead of him just going himself. So much wasted potential
Makes you want a Shand show, but then you remember they could only ruin her character.
It's the moment I understood why she's also called "The Cavalry". ;-)
@@jamielondon6436 I understood that reference😄
@@Hyogasaint Good for you, Cap. :-)
I'm totally glad that they brought Boba Fett back but why did they give him his own show when they clearly didn't have a story to tell?
Theyre almost done ruining all the legacy characters to make the Feloni characters more popular.
because MONEYYYYYYY
Why do Marvel offshoots up the wazoo happen? They think they're going to make more money. That's all it's about and it shows. These films and TV shows are a jumbled mess.
Uuuuummmmm.....because money
It’s not really his show, it’s a book within the Mando book series.
The Book of Boba Fett's runtime would have been better balanced if 100% of its 50% space meetings and 50% dramatic entrance scenes featured a space meeting that included a dramatic entrance.
Don't talk to me! I am famous! Don't dislike my good good GOOD videos! Don't talk to me, dear fus
@@AxxLAfriku you still do youtube videos?? 🙄
I see what you did there :D
This video was significantly more entertaining than the entire show.
"Stop trying to make Fett happen" is probably the best metaphor for this show in the universe.
Basically, "stop trying to make Sharon Carter happen" for marvel 😂
Blame the Gen-X'ers who thought Boba Fett was the coolest because he had 5 minutes of screen time in Empire
@@DJstarrfish but he was. A little Fett went a long way.
@@DJstarrfish he legitimately was super cool in the comics, Twin Engines of Destruction is still such a good story.
Very familiar line i can't remember from where exactly
The word, Daimyo, kills me every time it is used in the show. It is a mood-killer for me. I just can't stop laughing....
Yep. It's ridiculous.
Its a japanese word
@@leonrussell9607 … which is egregiously misused here.
@@leonrussell9607 yes, you are right. That's why it changes the whole things. The word brings complete different images and feelings to me, a Japanese.
@@leonrussell9607 I love it when I learn things from idly browsing comments. Thanks :)
The mod street gang was such a laughably bad part of the show. Showing Fennec get her mods was neat but the "gang" could have easily been replaced with regular people or retired soldiers, stormtroopers who hated the Empire, rebel fighters, other bounty hunters. Any of those would have been an improvement.
yes they were awful
@@ianism3 how are they awful?
Yeah the reason they fell flat for me, was they looked like something out of cyberpunk and not Star Wars, also their bikes was spotless, what did they wash them with? Water? It's a scarce substance on Tatooine, which they had been stealing to drink, BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T AFFORD IT !!! DID THEY WASH THEIR BIKES IN THAT!! Sorry that have bothered me a lot.
The girl was REALLY cute, tho. So that's a point in their favor.
So, the teenagers riding immaculately spotless floating Vespa scooters (when everyone else rides around on sand scoured, rusted out shitboxes) on a desert planet didn’t do it for you?
“Even though he doesn’t meet the stat requirements.” That got me
Rpg
me in elden ring when i get a magic sword and discover i'm to stupid to use it
That deep fake was beautiful compared to everything we've gotten in the past
Even though the names were funny, Luke's remark on Ahsoka's statement killed me 🤣
I don't hate this show, but I WILL admit I had more fun with this eight minute trailer then I did with an average episode that didn't have Mando or Baby Yoda.
You mean Grogu. Yoda is a different character completely.
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 Baby Yoda was his fan nickname from the moment he was first introduced. I assume *most* viewers understood that he wasn't literally Yoda.
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 Who cares? He will always be Bebe Yoda to me
I'm not mad, I'm just very disappointed.
"I find your smoothed out face disturbing," cracked me up! Along with Boba Fett not at all being the same character we know and love, I can't believe they dragged Cad Bane into this mess to kill him off with a freaking stick!
“Maybe it was a bad idea that a childrens’ network did a crime show.” This was an amazing episode of HT among amazing episodes. Too bad Boba Fett lent itself to this roast so easily.
Me watching Disney plus outside of the USA: “Crime lords are the least controversial thing I have seen on Disney Plus (Star)”
Agreed, I didn’t think Disney could hurt me again after the sequels but this hurt
@@verskarton shoulda just put an R18+ Boba Fett show on Star then lol
@@One.Zero.One101 it’s also disconcerting that Fennec Shand does all his dirty work for him. She’s actually more ruthless than even Cad Bane, who likes to do the high noon face off too much. If Vader had hired her instead of Fett, the Empire might have actually won.
Hey guys, let's make Bobba a crime lord, but let's make him S-O-F-T. That will be realistic and live up to everyone's expectations from his OT appearances!
Fennec Shand lacks any kind of character development. She's the loyal assassin who's sceptical about everything Boba wants, but goes along with it anyway. If it weren't for the fact that he'd saved her life, I would have expected her to betray him.
I also hoped that the Tusken Raiders would be Boba's secret ace up his sleeve for the other gang's sudden but inevitable betrayal, but that didn't work out. And how come there weren't any aliens amongst the colorful scooter gang?
Have you watched The Bad Batch?
Shand is my favorite character so far and she's amazing in The Bad Batch. I can definitely see the artistic issues and conflict in this show (it was heavily rumored amongst the production staff). I know they can do better. I don't know who wrote this, but please, hire me instead. I will make this show so damn ruthless and awesome.
@@indisummers4385 by no means did I intend to critique the character in general, just what the show did (or didn't do) with her.
Honestly, I first assumed the power ranger girl was an alien, because she was always pale and clean in Tatooine.
Baby yoda's dramatic entrance was my favorite.
It was just sad that in a show about Boba Fett, he shot his blaster like once or twice and didn't give us the bounty hunter reunions we had hoped for by instead giving the star wars equivalent of the power rangers.
spot on. it was awful
So true. Where’s Bossk and Dengar? I loved Star Wars but it’s time for me to move on…
"a planet in a remote corner at the center of the galaxy"
This line is beautiful
This dude contracted with Darth Vader, and a few years later he's refusing to kill, steal, harm, cheat, or generally hurt anyone's feelings. I know it's Disney but c'mon you'd think a show about a bounty hunter crime lord would have the faintest hint of an edge to it.
meanwhile, the Mandalorian cutting people in half
Exactly. This is supposed to be the same guy who had to be specifically told by Vader to stop disintegrating people.
He even tried to bomb a jedi and now he's all like boohoo that's a crime.
This show was basically like the reverse of _The Godfather._ Evil person actively wants to be a mob boss, even though nobody else wants him to, and he becomes a better person for it.
This quote might have been a religious experience for me just now XD
LMAO imagine how many times you must've watched The Godfather to come up with this golden comment
Now presenting Disney's ... "The Goodfather"
Fett isn't evil. He does contracts. That's it.
@@DixonsCider "No disintegrations," is not the thing you say to an employee who DOESN'T murder loads and loads of people. XD
Tatooine is the most boring planet in Star Wars & they always base all their stuff on it.
"Mando chopping up bounties with a lightsaber even though he doesn't meet the stat requirements." ROFL
The coolest and badass thing about Boba Fett was his helmet, and they spent so much time with him not wearing the helmet! He was literally a headshot away from being killed. Not to mention, his suit also looked so small on him, like his gut was bursting through it. Mando's suite is so streamlined and proportion to him, and just looked awesome.
Mando looks great in his armor. But it's like they picked up the EXACT set of armor from the Return of the Jedi, handed it to Boba and said "see if this still fits".
Narrator: "It didn't."
It's fine, hardly anyone on Tatooine uses blasters anyway, not even the super duper Night Wind assassins. They have blasters, they just all choose not to use them for some reason.

Darth Maul: Am I a joke to you?

Basically All of Legends: Am I a Joke to you?
The end title, "Bacta The Future," was honestly the best title you guys have made
The Outer Rim Job was even better
After watching Luca and The Book of Boba Fett I seriously think some producer just really loves Vespa or has a ton of its stock or both you know.
George Lucas made a movie called American Graffiti that featured colorful hot rod gangs. This was supposed to be a tribute to that. It was so out of place though.
It’s pretty sad that the best episodes of The Book or Boba Fett were the ones without Boba Fett
It's possible they saw the viewing numbers and shoved in the first two episodes of Mando S3.
It just prove that Boba Fett is a good character, but not a main or leading character.
@@strudl32456 i think your right. i was about to cancel my disney plus account after ep 4. i cant be the only one
@@strudl32456 you obviously have no idea how production schedules work.
@@AndreThompson925 That just means they already knew it would be bad after filming five episodes of Boba Fett.
The decisions in this show made so much more sense when I found out the 1st, 3rd episodes and the finale were directed by the director of Spy Kids.
Honestly, I'm impressed at how well the show turned out now.
Hey, Spy Kids was awesome, don't diss my childhood.
So? Dude also directed Desperado, Sin City, The Faculty, Planet Terror...
also the director of Alita: Battle Angel. Also the director of Desperado. Also the Director of part of From Dusk til Dawn. Also the director of Sin City, Planet Terror and Machete.
So THAT's how they got Danny Trejo to be in it...
The best part of this show, was the episodes with the mandalorian in it.
I like bobba fett but yeah the mandalorion was the only reason why I watched the show from start to finish
In other words, the best part about this series was the part that wasn't this series.
It's sad, but true.
Is there a season 2 for boba Fett or is it just this one
@@mohabalserafe3795 Hopefully not a second, but knowing Disney they will crap out ten.
The problem isn't that its limited to being a "kids show". I'm sick of hearing that. Star Wars spin-offs have long moved away from the kids demographic and have been appealing to an older audience for a while now. Some of the stuff you see in shows like Clone Wars or The Bad Batch are proof of that
No, the problem with The Book of Boba Fett is that the showrunners clearly had no interest in trying to make Boba Fett a compelling character. They only cared about the character's brand recognition
Its kind of a problem when Mando, who has only ever worked for the Empire once, is the more violent and less forgiving character than the guy who made a career working for the Space Nazis to the point that Darth Vader had to specifically tell him "No disintegrations"
DARTH FUCKING VADER had to tell him to be less brutal lol. What were these writers doing? lmao
The show was only made to create a couple of new products for Disney to sell. Think of all the memorabilia you're going to see related to this show and characters....this show was nothing more than a cash grab/money pig set up.
I was fine with Boba Fett being a more calm character because I thought the final episode is when he was going to go full beast mode but it was such a disappointment. Also since the mandalorian is already silent badass bounty hunter that's probably why they tried to change Boba Fett when the fans were fine having two badass bounty hunters
He also acted morally superior to Cad Bane who at least called him out on it
I feel like the whole purpose of the Tuscan Raider memory-flashback back-story was to show how and why Boba Fett changed. He WAS this ruthless bounty hunter, but the experiences with the sand people changed him into something a bit more...noble.
It seemed to me like they were continuing the whole space-western approach to Star Wars. Boba here, instead of being a ruthless crime lord, became a "new sheriff in town". A good sheriff needs to have an excellent moral compass and to know where to draw the line. That being said, I can see why fans were disappointed by Fett's suddenly out-of-character behavior. We were given a backstory explaining the change in character, but I guess it wasn't executed that well.
And it certainly didn't help that Din Djarrin, Grogu, Luke, Ahsoka, AND Cad freakin' Bane stole half of the show.
And somehow they still took it easy on the show. Bobba is an INCREDIBLY bad leader. He doesn't hire troops except teenagers with attitude, he doesn't pressure or threaten the other crime lords into helping him, just meekly asking if they could please not betray him, and is shocked when they do, needs Fennec to remind him that they could just kill the enemy leaders...
Talks about respect but then does nothing to earn said respect...
My favourite part was him declaring himself daimyo... of what exactly? There didn't seem to be an organisation for him to be in charge of.
The entire series was saved when the Mandalorian said “Wizard”.
Lol he’s bringing it back!!!!!!!
What does that mean?
@@TheyIs hmm sounds pretty dumb to me to be honest lol. Especially because I'm sure a lot of people didn't get it. But thank you for the response!

Make an Honest Trailer for this year’s Best Picture nominees
Who cares about that? We all just want Clone wars!(Just joking, waiting for both, sorry for my bad english)
Not gonna lie, I was fully prepared to give up on this show. Then Mando showed up and I was like, I'll give it another shot😂🤣😂🤣
I'm not even interested to watch Book of Boba Fett far from the show actually aired, until i saw Mando on this video
I just skipped from the first episode to the Mando and Grogu ones. Same thing with the books I don't like.
@@lidia_gomez I did the exact same thing. The first episode was so bad that I gave up on the whole thing, then came back for the last episodes when I heard Boba was sidelined for Mando.
And after you saw the finale you realized you clowned yourself believing the show could turn around
I wasn't going to watch it at all until I saw someone call it Mandalorian season 2.5. Then it ended up having some pretty important plot points for those characters.
Omg, that last Robin Hood: Men in Tights scene was perfection.
Mando really is a Space Cowboy because he's gonna carry the weight of this entire series that isn't even his. Which reminds me...
_See You Space Cowboy_
A Cowboy Bebop-style anthology series would have been great for a Boba or Mando series. It's a show about bounty hunters going on random adventures, where each episode has a self-contained plot.
Mando seasons 1 & 2 had elements of this (going from planet to planet and doing side quests), but in the end it was all to serve the Grogu and Empire story arc
Can you say "Like a Bantha!" in your epic voice?
yes please
I dunno, I liked the show even without it becoming a Mandalorian filler
I feel like people just wanna keep piling on DeepFake Luke when in reality, he's a massive improvement over his last appearance. Even Corridor Digital, one of the biggest critics of Mando S2 that they made their own DeepFake Luke, acknowledge that Book of Boba's Deepfake is currently _THE BEST_ in the industry right now.
Sure it looks good. But it sounds wooden and kind of robotic...because it is. Luke's voice is an AI approximating the sound of Mark Hamill's voice.
They can appreciate it more since they know the work thats put into it, however it still looks weird despite it being the best.
I was fine with the CGI to be honest, but the audio was bad.
A good voice actor could've brought life to it and helped to smooth out the woodenness of the package.
@@joevenespineli6389 nah, they appreciate that it _looks_ really lifelike. They're quick to criticize shoddy VFX work even when they know it probably took hundreds of hours to do. What they loved about the deepfake is that it actually addressed their criticisms.
@@whowasibeing that's a fair criticism. I wonder if an autotuned Mark Hamill would've sounded better. And let's be real here, at his age Mark probably can't do his young Luke voice anymore.
The original Boba was a skinny guy, so his shoulder pads covered his entire shoulders. Now with a beefed-up Maori his shoulder guards are more like tiny decorations.
The issue is mostly the new undergarments on the armor. Temuera is a bit bigger than when he played Jango, but the armor is being placed over 2 layers of robes now, instead of 1 layer of form fitting material.
@@nooneyouknow13 It's what I said, plus what you said, plus compared to The Mandalorian (who clearly IS now correctly armoured) Boba is basically in Bikini Armour.
I feel sorry for anyone who didn't like this but does like the Mandalorian because you've basically got to watch at least 3 episodes of this otherwise I doubt the next season of Mando will make sense because *spoiler alert* he gets told he is not a Mandalorian anymore so if you haven't watched this then you'll be like wtf why isn't he a Mandalorian anymore when it comes up.
All the dramatic entrances accompanied by awesome music and then here comes Grogu waddling up like a boss perfectly to the music. Just *chef kiss* amazing
I couldn’t stop laughing
This was a ton of fun to watch, and thanks for calling out the stupid in this show. Boba was the most agreeable bounty hunter/daimyo ever, a 100% turn from the tone the character set in ESB 42 years ago (lord, I'm old).
When it was the Mandalorian it was fun to watch... But they did Boba's character HELLA wrong... This video nails it
Meet Boba, who wants to be a crime lord, except for the crime part, and the lord part.
Also he "took over" Jabba's business but he could barely control half of Mos Espa. Pretty sure Jabba controlled not just the whole planet, but all the other ones that start with Nal or Nar.
@@RorikH Less of a crime daimyo and more of a regular daimyo amirite?
Yea but we really didn't know anything about him then. So while I was confused that he was so lenient. I couldn't really say it contradicts with how he used to be. Cuz we really didn't know his philosophy.
Ah yes, the bridge fight in Men In Tights. Best stick fighting in movie history. The tension was unbelievably high.
Epic voice guy: "Learning more about a star wars character only makes them cooler"
Kid Fett: "Git him Dad, git him"
Me: Wow the warning signs were all there!
When is it bad for a kid saying that? At least it's better than having him in the OT just standing there and doing nothing, while he was thrown, by a blind man, into the sarlacc pit.

To be fair to Boba, that bounty on Luke's head must have been very sizable indeed for him to focus all his attention on trying to capture Skywalker.
Dude was too busy aiming his blaster at Luke thinking "money, money, money" to notice Han behind him swinging that stick.
....that would make a great meme about Disney losing the plot now I think of it just have Han be "story", Luke be "money", and Boba be "Disney" and there you go.
that last part from Men in Tights made me laugh, you guys are gold.
I giggled just like I did seeing Men in Tights in theaters all those decades ago!
Grogu strolling in during that epic entrance song was🔥🔥🔥
What I loved about Boba Fett was the fact that halfway through, it became the Mandalorian S3.
The Mandalorian should have been the standard they tried to meet with this series, but idk what they were thinking when they turned Boba into a pacifistic savior and had street bike chases that looked like they came from Big Bad Beetleborgs.
Which episode has Mando? Like hell I am going to put up with Fett.
@@Beverly_Dingus Hey, Beetleborgs was great when I was in elementary school.
@@oohhboy-funhouse Episode 5!
@@Beverly_Dingus Beetleborgs? My first thought was Power Rangers hover bikes.
"We gave a Wookiee brass knuckles and got him drunk. You'll totally believe what happened next."
*CHAOS*
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Imagine people who only watch The Mandalorian and up confused by season 3 showing Mando and Grogu united again after the end of season 2.
That's why I watched the 3 last episodes of The Book of Boba Fett (and only watched those).
Yeah, I didn't want to force my gf to watch BoBF since I wasn't enjoying it very much, but now feel like she has to before Mando S3 comes out. And yeah only the last 3 eps really need to be watched, but there are moments in the finale that I think she'd like to have context for--especially the Rancor.
I hadn't watched S2 of Mandalorian yet and got really confused.
There will be some sort of flashback/catch up thing
That had to be intentional, right? They figured The Book of Boba Fett wasn't going to be super successful, so they intrinsically tied the Mandalorian into it, so fans of the show need to watch it.
I also thought it was weird not to show anyone dying from spice, or even messing up their life because of it. Did I miss the spice junkies or something?
Nah. The whole thing was riddled with plot contrivances that just popped up to help the story shudder onto the next set piece/grand entrance.
Speeder Gang was another example - never really explained what they were doing and to whom. They appear, they a few minutes of 'baddies, m'kay' and then they vanish, then come back later randomly to get killed, then don't get mentioned again until Cad Bane mentions it... which was entirely pointless because it did nothing to change anyone's motivations or actions.
Honestly, best Boba Fett is Robot Chicken.
Almost like they just thought of it, there were enough crowd shots in this show to depict junkies all over the streets and make the Mods junkies too
That made me realize how they could've made a mature show that parallels the dark side of organized crime in real life.
Spice extends life, spice expands consciousness...
Oh wait, wrong universe😉
I actually love the stupid SOLO “joke”, cos I love the idea that there’s a whole bunch of people in the Empire called Solo cos this ONE Imperial guy making a himself laugh
Honestly it's just great to hear Temuera Morrison's voice in Star Wars again
Original boba fett voice actor is 10 times better and more menacing, and he is deleted from the credits in the remakes, it's so sad
Definitely! He was the primary reason I came to watch the show in the first place! He speaks to my prequel-loving heart.
But I miss Jason Wingreen's voice. :(
All they’re doing is cashing in on your nostalgia without adding anything of substance. Lol this show was unnecessary just like Han Solo and rogue one
@@jeezus557 it's just hollow corporate product, and the insatiable manchildren eat it up and demand more
I really don't get the criticism for the Luke Skywalker deep fake in this video. The work on it for this series was VASTLY improved over what they had in the Mandalorian!
I was fine with the video portion of it, but the computer generated audio threw me for a loop.
Did not feel ready for primetime.
I agree.
And now that we have a third season of the mandalorian, it makes this show look amazing.
*That princess Vespa joke was just sitting there waiting for someone to use it. Yet still, whoever pitched it is a freaking genius.*
The Men in Tights reference was so unexpected, and yet so perfect.
Never understood why he claims tattooine is his planet. My guy just worked for Jabba da hut. All the good things in this show, the twin huts,
Gladiator Wookie, gangs all under used.
Enjoyed cad but wished he was the villain from the get go. Lots of history between the two, would of been good
I do not understand all the hate with the Luke deepfake. It looks incredible
The only thing that was odd was the slow speech and movements so the deepfake didn't look awful.
Yeah! it was good work, you could see that he was scared shitless and didn't know what to do. Good emoting, always a good sign of talented animators.
I unfortunately disagree
@@saile4400 "scared shitless"?
It's a) uncanny and b) demonstrates that this franchise can't move away from the stories we've known from Legends for years and can't move on to fresh material. Using Luke Skywalker is like when WWE would continually push John Cena or Roman Reigns past their time instead of allowing for new talent to take over, only here the fans are fanboys and will cheer at anything with Luke or anyone from what they already know and love without seeing if it's a good story
Mando being called Parent of Honor Student and Grogu is Dropout...LoL
Boba Fett: "Spice is killing our people."
Me: No, at this point I think its Disney!
I just thought: "Dude, this isnt Arrakis!"
And one of the other crime lords was literally, "But Black Dynamite, I sell drugs to the community."
It’s like Disney knew that they had a lemon and tried their damnedest to make lemonade by adding episodes with Mando, Luke and Ahsoka.
Princess Vespa... So many layers of awesome. Mel Brooks would be so proud.
The dramatic entrance with Grogu killed me 🤣. Also, say “We live in a society, in a world, in a parallel dimension, in a galaxy far far away…”
Me too lol
Fennec showing what a Master Assassin can do while taking down the Pyke leaders and local bosses that betrayed them was pretty damn badass though… Why didn’t we get more of that?!
She literally could have solved the entire conflict of the show herself if she just did that a month before. There was nothing stopping her and she ended up doing it with zero prep and 100% skill. She should be Boba's boss, not the other way around.
That tiny segment felt like it meshed with the picture setting up the series of Fett on the throne.
Everything between it felt like a Bacta tank fever dream.
they wasted her character so much, it's sad. Ming na wen deserved better
The answer is: the writers are bad at their jobs.
Because we can't have strong female lead characters - too many male heads would explode.
Imagine a Boba Fett version of 127 hours, with Boba in the sarlaac, it could still have flashbacks that expand his chacter, perhapes to Jango or to Cad Bane. It would be really satisfying to see him escape if he has to struggle more and longer than in the series
