 This is a pretty cool helmet right? Be a shame if I didn't wear it. Despite the fact that this is the reason why you're watching the show in the first place. And then cave it over to someone else halfway through. Star Wars. Hello guys this is my review for the book of Boba Fett and unlike Boba I'm actually gonna keep the helmet on for as long as I possibly can. This is the way. Until I listen to the audio from this. This is the way. This show is a kind of a filler more so way. Hey watch this until Mando Season 3 comes back or really when Pedro Pascal is available after having worked on the Last of Us series. This is the way. Now all of the men I've never been one of those people who has always been truly fascinated with the Boba Fett character. I always thought the hype was purely because of how cool this dude looked. Admittedly something that this show does try to do. A prize to bring back all of these elements that made the character so popular when he was first introduced via an animated and serial kind of comics right after the first movie came out back in the 70s. Does he entirely make you actually care about the character? Maybe a little bit when he has his kind of dances with the Tuskens bit. And then admittedly it comes to a rut. Now the halfway mark is kind of a make or break for people. Now people just enjoying the show in general probably were really happy with it. I admittedly was happy with it. It does now make this show mandatory to watch it for you to understand what's happening in Mandalorian Season 3 which I could also say is a little bit of a detriment if not a massive detriment to this series because at pretty much the halfway mark of this show it completely goes over to another character and the book of Boba Fett really is the book of people telling Boba Fett what to do. I liked Tomorrow Morrison seeing him back as a character in Star Wars. I liked his voice. I liked that the fact that he's kind of like a dad bod version of Boba Fett. I enjoy his elements when they have some merit to them but there are a lot of moments that just don't. They just sway in the wind or if he's just sitting around doing this or taking his helmet off consistently like he definitely has a lot more screen time without his helmet on and that's not just including the back to tank so the Tuscan Raidership he literally is out of his costume far more which is a strange kind of contradiction on the show's entire basis. It's premise. There's a ton of fan service in this series with the amount of characters that they bring both from the Mandalorians as well as even some from different elements of Star Wars including Clone Wars and the movies themselves and those are definitely evident because you can tell they are there to make up for the lack of any kind of idea that they had. John Favaro has done a very decent job giving us pretty basic one-liner sort of serial comic book store to storylines with the Mandalorians first two seasons and Book of Boba just kind of like everything runs out. I feel that they have absolutely no gas in the tank for this one. They were using as little creative juices as they could because they just didn't have anything. They didn't have anything really to work with like hey this is how he came back. When it comes to its climax against the big bad gang group you kind of don't care. The action is really fun but once everything is said and done you almost feel like you've wasted your time. You just watched it for a reason that was a completely ulterior motive than the actual title slash main supposed character of the series you've been watching. Book of Boba Fett is fun-ish I guess depending on which episodes you watch. Some of them are really decent. Some of them are horrible. There are fun cameos of characters from different shows. There is way too much time given to these zoomer kids on their multicolored little bicycles. I understand that it is a reference to American graffiti but the fact that these guys look like cyberpunk cosplay characters in Star Wars they're too clean they don't really work here and they're also kind of dumb too. When they fix Mulan they put all the android bits into her all the cybernetics and Boba's like let's cover that up and the guy's like oh why would you want to hide all that machinery. I don't know how about the fact that this entire planet is made up of fucking sand you fucking idiot. You have a poison in your mind and the fact that you can't see it makes me so sad. In the end Book of Boba Fett is a fun time for a fan service. It is definitely relying on you having watched Clone Wars and the previous two Mandalorian seasons and really it doesn't even focus as much on its title characters it should and eventually gives it away to the thing that kind of everyone wants and I think that was kind of the idea that at four episodes in they're just like ah whatever let's just go to the thing that we know everyone really wants to watch. So in the end I'm going to give the Book of Boba Fett a three out of seven it's I can't give it a positive because it doesn't focus on its main character enough to warrant it and it just totally derails. I'm not saying that the derailment wasn't enjoyable those were some of the best episodes of this series and wait when your series is about someone completely different from who you're supposed to be talking about you've kind of lost the point. In the end I think that was kind of the idea I don't think that Filoni and Favaro had a full fledged idea with Book of Boba over the character of Boba Fett. I think they're just like yeah we'll make a few episodes and we'll focus on someone else and then we'll just make it work together. Everyone just wants something to fill in the time gap between now and season three of Mandalorian. Anyways guys I hope you enjoyed this review. If you did leave a like and if you're interested in more maybe subscribe otherwise see you guys next time. See you kept the helmet on the whole time.
