Those info should've been tag as spoilersI think this is the heart of the issues with the show. They had to do somethign quick, so they took the ideas from the movie (Boba becomes crime lord, gets a rancor etc) and spread them out over a series and filled lots of it with backstory from Mandalorian.
No Crimson Dawn, no Luke, no Tuskens, none of the things people were hoping to see.
So now Boba Fett is a boring nice guy who live out his days on Tatooine with his girlfriend and street gang friends? UGH.
No -- those monkeys are in the original Jumanji.Oh its not that bad..
There isn't any CG monkeys that look like a five year old has animated them show up...Yet![]()
Oh, did you miss the part at the end where he was being a whiny bitch about being Mayor while Fennec was explaining 'uhhh well yeah...this is what its like stupid' and he replied "We're not cut out for this"?I think this is the heart of the issues with the show.

Oh, yeah, it's nothing like a real tabard. I think one of the Visual Dictionary's started to call them that. Your right it's more similar to liturgical stole. At least in the OT. And in the Prequels they became two separate pieces of fabric, and don't really look like anything I've seen.So this needs to stop. *lol* A tabard is basically a rectangular medieval European poncho. Front panel, back panel, neck opening. Usually at least knee-length. Luke's ROTJ outfit consisted of the placketed shirt and matching pants, both black; a sleeveless, open-front vest heavily based on a Tibetan panel coat, in faded black; and the cloak in brown. The vest thing had simplified construction, given the lack of contrasting paneling, and what is an attached front facing/collar on the coat is more of a stole on Luke's garment, attached only at the neck.

It looks to have been a shortened, sleeveless version of what Alec wore in ANH -- same fabric and everything (just a different color).

Same back construction...

Trish's Prequel tunics, with the split stoles, feel very slapdash and sloppy by comparison -- changed for change's sake, same as with the ROTS early-Imperial uniforms. That's also where the "doubled up" tunics come from. His ROTS outfit looks like it's supposed to be his ANH outfit, but it's too short, constructed wrong, and worn wrong. Obi-Wan and Luke both wear their tunics open to the sash. Prequel Obi-Wan and Anakin have them overlapped almost up to the neck. Can't make them the same way as the OT and have them lay that way.
Luke's outfit here is basically an all-fabric version of PT Anakin's, with less ridiculous stoles. Overlapped gi style shirt, too-high-overlapped sleeveless tunic, double stoles instead of one going around the neck. I kinda hate it because of that...![]()
Now those truly are dreadful..No -- those monkeys are in the original Jumanji.
SSB
Amen to that.
Also Grogu... As much as I love him, it was stupid to bring him back with Mando. The whole story for the first 2 seasons of Mando was about returning him to his kind/Jedi. They went through blood sweat and tears to do that and finally handed him over to Luke. Now he's back again? That story is complete, It would be nice to see S3 have Mando go solo and we can meet some new characters. Definitely about the $$$. I don't mind SEEING Grogu but following the path of the Jedi would have Made more sense. I don't know, maybe there's some grand plan for him.
This same scene where its focusing on Mando, while Boba is off to the side or in the background pointlessly shooting at the same spot over and over and over and over literally had me yelling and swearing at my TV in anger because its just so horrifically stupid... Especially when they had the audacity to have Mando then say "Think it through!"Possibly the cheesiest scene of the episode. My eyes were rolling so hard it gave me a migraine.View attachment 1544404
It sounded like Bubba Bubba Bubba Bubba Ho Tep!.. He Ain't no Bruce CampbellToo soon?

By the way, if you sat through the end credits you'll notice the theme now actually has lyrics, i.e. "Boba ... FETT!". As if the episode wasn't cheesy enough...
Go Gadget G.... I mean Ride like the w.. oh crap you know what I mean..I slipped to Vanth in the bacta tank getting ready for his upgrades scene and then bailed.
People do say that ironically. Fairly often, in fact. It doesn't mean they're really trying to say Boba is older than we think, or that they don't actually know how old he is. Bane was intimating that Boba is old at a young age -- washed up.Speaking of "old age", when Bane told Boba "you're getting soft in your old age", I thought to myself, is early-40s considered old age now?
Thought the same thing about the music. Really didn’t sit well.Where the hell did Boba take the gaffi stick out from? His a$$?
Also, what the **** was with that medieval minstrel music at the end when they were walking through the street? Is Boba some sort of English lord that just saved his little hamlet from marauding Vikings?
