The Book of Boba Fett

But should modern episodic content be given a pass on weak storytelling just because a TV show from the 70s or a serial from the 30s and 40s did the same thing?
No not at all...
Its that... there are only six stories excuse.
You can dress a story anyway you like but mix it up use the props to hand to beguile the viewer not send them to sleep..
 
I really wonder of Ahsoka already knew luke when Mando and Grogu found her. Otherwise its a heck of a coincidence that she finds him after he finds Grogu. Bit if she did, it was a pretty jerk move to make Grogu reach out to find him.
 
He was a boyscout, but not a sexless emotionless NPC.
So far he's just been a mannequin outside of TLJ - which at least tried to do something different and interesting.

I'm just curious as to what you enjoyed about the OT considering it's Luke's story and it's clear you don't really care for him as a character. I'm genuinely asking.

i think she found him after the second death star. lukes stories were he was running around the galaxy looking for jedi stuff, i bet he found her then

I love Luke as a Character...

Star Wars - impatient... headstrong... Han has to slap his hand away from controls... adventure driven... cocky... Yells at threepio.

Empire - Yoda calls him Reckless... too old... impatient... flawed... goes from the heart... puts friends first...

ROTJ - comes in like a bad ass... intimidating... schools Jabba... is a lot darker... maybe COULD switch! HOLY CRAP HE ALMOST DOES HE CUT OFF VADERS ARM OH ****!!!!

TLJ - Oh crap! He's gone Mark! He's angry and cyncial... The Jedi ways - not good. Walks from the religion... *can relate* - Finds a love again for his religion teaching another young one who doesn't know the old failed teachings...


Now Mando...

"I AM A CGI ROBOT WHO ONLY TALKS LIKE HE DID AT JABBAS"

What did I love about the OT?

Oh I think its building up nicely and like in AOTC or LOTR etc...when their backs against the wall either Tusky lady along with The United Tusky Raiders or a bunch of Mandalorians led by horny blacksmith or Bo K'tan will show up!..
Concur! Or Grogu, now bouncing all over the place!
 
I do feel really bad for the die hard Fett fans who were probably beyond excited about a series devoted to their favorite character. He will likely go full fury at some point but it’s obvious the series isn’t about him. Please, please don’t do this to Obi-Wan…
The Book of Friends I met..

The thing is.. we thought it was all about Boba hunting slaughtering etc but that can only go so far before it becomes the Trope of the week.
TBOBF is merely a collection of stories tales events book ended by a once Bad Ass Mutha lover!
 
I agree that Luke comes off a bit wooden in this episode, which really just seems like a limitation of their current tech. If they cast a live actor, I’m sure they could do a good job, but I don’t think it would seem any more like Luke.

Alden did a fine job acting and being charismatic in Solo, but at no point was he Han to me. In fact once I started just looking at him as someone other than Han, just a generic guy with similar behavior, I enjoyed the movie a lot more.

I still think they have a shot to improve the tech and maybe we’ll get a better performance in the future.
