The Book of Boba Fett (2021)

[Greg]

Circle saw?

Thanks so much for that heads up. With my blast shield down, this ep wasn't spoiled.

And what a great ep. It was the kick the bantha that this show needed. I’ve been hoping it would go there.

All in for next week’s ep.

[Greg]

I thought it was going to be a cameo but no and this episode shows how Boba needs to up it's game. I'm always leery when I see that Bryce Dallas Howard directs an episode but she did alright with this episode. I'm still on the fence whether Sedaris is fun or annoying. It also helps we won't be seeing the next series for a year.

[Drunk Monk]

I think it did just up its game. This was clearly the end game all along.

This is the way.

Fingers crossed for a Sabine cameo. She has already been cast. That would bring the full arc of the Darksaber into play and set up Ashoka.

[Greg]

Put your blast shield down. Lots of leaky leaks out there already. for Episode 6.

[Drunk Monk]

Thanks for the warning. Blast shield down until tonight...

[Drunk Monk]

Sweet! Glad I missed any spoilers. This ep went where I was hoping this was going, and more. 

KEEP THOSE BLAST SHIELDS DOWN IF YOU'RE WATCHING THIS. It's just me and Greg tho, ain't it?

I feel ya on Sedaris, but it made me start following her IG which is quite amusing.

I knew Bane was coming as soon as I saw his silhouette on the horizon. Perhaps I heard some buzz earlier but forgot it. I'll mention him because I don't think anyone is as deep into SW lore as me amongst D00M. Bane was a major player in Clone Wars and reappeared The Bad Batch as an adversary to Shand. Yeah, Filoni and Favreau are clearly going there. 

Now as much as I'm hoping for Sabine, I'm wondering if Omega will appear. That would be an interesting contrast to Boba, as he was the alpha of Jango and Omega was, well, the omega. I don't really care for Omega but her tale has yet to be fleshed out enough. So maybe Sabine. 

And if they really want to up the ante... Maul. 

And in the end, why can't both be chosen? I know, I know, it's the Jedi way, but it's time for another Tarre Vizsla. That was already teased in the last ep.

[Greg]

So many words I knew nothing about! But all the feels in this episode. I saw the leak about Bane, which was why I gave the Blast shield order, but everyone else was a complete surprise. Filoni and Favreau really like their westerns.

And as a thought, shouldn't we have called our drug something besides Spice?

[Drunk Monk]

Shoulda been called 'death sticks'

That was a dumb name for a space drug but it was a great scene, arguably one of the strongest in the prequel trilogy.

And I think it's mi jefe Rodriguez who's lending that western influence.

[Greg]

Collect them all!

It's just Bad Cane, right?

[Drunk Monk]

Lowering that blast shield again. Quickly scrolled past a headline that might have spoiled something if I had looked.

Hoping Boba sticks the landing.
