Boba the fet1/1/2023 Horoscope for Monday, 10/03/22 by Christopher Renstrom. It’s very good business so long as no one dares to mess with our GodFetter, and it’s a good setup for a theoretical, actually good “Star Wars” show. As a noted space don, he gets to sit in a chair most of the day and have locals pay tribute to him with both paeans to his brilliance and large boxes of space money. In the now - call it a slightly less long time ago - Fett has ascended to the ranks of criminal overlord, successor to “Return of the Jedi’s” “vile gangster” Jabba the Hutt. Both Fett’s escape and his enslavement are told in flashback. Boba the fet plus#And then a pack of desert raiders known as Sand People revive him with juice from what appears to be a space carrot before instantly enslaving him and having one of their top lieutenants beat him up on a nighttime set that looks more like a sound stage than an empty sound stage does.Ī scene from the new Disney Plus series "The Book of Boba Fett." Disney +Īh, but what those Sand People don’t realize is that they’ve just messed with one of the most precious pieces of intellectual property in the galaxy. After escaping from the pit, Fett fails to enter Profit! Mode when his unconscious body is looted by scavengers named Jawas. How did he dig up through that ground? How long was he trapped in there? Didn’t he need a glass of water at some point? HEY PRESTO! The screen goes white and we’re gifted a cliched shot of Fett’s hand reaching out of the ground. Here’s what he and Rodriguez came up with: Fett, played by wooden New Zealand actor Temuera Morrison, remains conscious inside the toxic digestive tract of an alien beast, finds a dead Stormtrooper there, siphons off that Stormtrooper’s oxygen supply for a little pick-me-up, and then uses his wrist-mounted flamethrower to, like burn a few surrounding innards. So Favreau, along with every other living American, had ample time to imagine all kinds of creative ways for Fett to escape that pit. But what "The Book of Boba Fett" presupposes is … what if he didn’t? "Return of the Jedi" was released 38 years ago. Originally, Boba Fett died when he fell into that Sarlacc pit. And trust me: You’d rather read the spoilers here than endure the story they spoil. Let me highlight some of their failings right now. Together, they’ve made 38 minutes of entertainment - God, how could 38 minutes move by so slowly? - that would end the careers of people with lesser resumes. Favreau wrote the first episode of "TBOBF" and handed directing duties over to 1990s relic Robert Rodriguez, who’s no stranger to making outlet mall-quality children’s cinema. They will do no such thing this time around. "TBOBF" comes off the heels of "The Mandalorian," which was an excellent space Western: so much so that "Star Wars" fans, apparently bereft of actual loved ones, spent days profusely thanking creator Jon Favreau on Twitter after its second season ended. Also, he had a cool helmet, he didn’t care about any of the other characters, and he died a hilariously ignominious death in "Return of the Jedi" after falling into the Sarlacc pit: a living cavern that slowly digests people over a period of a thousand years. Boba the fet movie#Boba Fett only had four lines in the original movie trilogy, but they were good lines. Some background: "The Book of Boba Fett" is an original Disney Plus series about intergalactic bounty hunter Boba Fett, who became a "Star Wars" fan favorite long ago by embodying the “less is more” maxim. It makes me never want to watch anything related to "Star Wars" ever again, and maybe I won’t. The whole affair, from beginning to end, is the worst episode of television I’ve seen this year, or any other year. I’ve seen more convincing fight scenes on reality television. I’ve played iPhone games that have better special effects. It’s been a long time since I’ve watched something as embarrassing as "The Book of Boba Fett." I’ve seen better acting in home movies.
