Tbobf finale thoughts real quick:
I have like 5 mins to write this before I have to get up for work so letā€™s go
I canā€™t figure out if I hated this or not
Like yeah they did end up with the same ā€œoh theyā€™re going to have to wrap this up REAL quick and dirtyā€ pacing issue Iā€™ve been worried about
But they didnā€™t even give us much good character stuff to smooth over the plot/pacing
Liked Din being loyal to Boba to the point where heā€™s willing to die but it would have been nice to have acknowledged WHY that is.
There were a lot of emotional gut punches in this episode that ended up being more emotional love taps due to lost or forgotten context and thatā€™sā€¦.bizarre for a show as obsessed with flashbacks as this one is.
Like the only reason I even knew Cad Bane and Boba had previously established beef is because I glanced at a tumblr post about their unfinished duel from the clone wars show. Thatā€™s not the kind of fan knowledge you should be working off ofā€¦
Genuine question: how many of yā€™all even knew who Cad Bane was? If my brother hadnā€™t forced me to watch a few seasons of the clone wars Iā€™d have had absolutely no goddamn clue who this joker was. (And I think a good percentage of Mando / TBOBF viewers may also be like me and arenā€™t big Star Wars buffs outside of these shows, so theyā€™d have zero context for this interaction)
Lost opportunity to have the Tusken lady in black and the kid come back to help Boba. Yes Iā€™m still upset about that, I was planning on dying mad about it.
Justā€¦so very little of any of this finale made reasonable senseā€¦ā€¦..Iā€™m gonna have to watch it again and do a play by play because itā€™s so jumbled in my head after one viewing
Luke really did put that infant in a ship and send him off to god knows where care of who the hell knows because he was angry he picked the beskar huh
Whoā€™s the true baby here mr skywalker
This has been and will remain a ā€œLuke Skywalker can fight me in the Dennyā€™s parking lot and Iā€™d winā€ house
Pacing aside since thereā€™s not a lot to be done about that, this ep could have still been good if theyā€™d given us even an ounce more context for some of these interactions.
It really feels like the writers were just stalling for time with this while finishing up Mando S3 which is a huge shame because this could have been GREAT as like an hour Boba Fett special or something. Trim the fat, do better with the Tusken story line, get rid of those GOD AWFUL mods, focus on what these events mean to BOBA (and Fennec), we could have had a real tight and punchy story.
Seriously fuck the mods everyone here hates the mods whoā€™s idea weā€™re they
Blah blah other stuff happening I donā€™t even care about this nonsense at this point beyond watching my favorite little imaginary people run around on screen
Grogu should have taken the lightsaber too. Just for extra ā€œpiss off Lukeā€ points.
I know Din didnā€™t take his helmet off this entire time because Pedro couldnā€™t actually be there to film, but I would have liked a nice helmet-less reunion scene with Grogu. Or a face reveal with Boba. I just miss Pedroā€™s handsome face ):
Boba did look really good this ep though šŸ‘Œ and weā€™re almost back to his Mandalorian s2 levels of badassery in combat which was nice to see.
Bobadin shippers we won today
IM SO FUCKING GLAD COBB ISNT DEAD HOLY SHIT this was really the only thing I ever cared a little bit about djskdjsjjd
Howā€™d he get there though
Did the townspeople bring him in? And for what? Did they know Boba had a bacta tank????
Or did Boba and co swing by and pick him up after the fight and bring him back? Howā€™d he survive that long if it was an injury bad enough to take him out/keep him out/require the use of a bacta tank????
Oh god please donā€™t give him a whole ass robot arm like the fuckin mods Iā€™ll scream. Give him a nice discreet job like Fennecā€™s. Please donā€™t make my boy cringe.
Anyway see yā€™all at Christmas time for Mando s3 šŸ’€
