Chat corner 37: The Book of Boba Fett

[annathecrow]

Welcome to the new year! Feels like the old year. Still, may 2022 be a better year for you than 2021 was.

Optional prompt

This week’s topic should be from the non-movie canon content category, so I’ll bite the bullet and make it The Book of Boba Fett. I’d say make it non-spoilery, since the first episode came out on 29th, but it is a first episode, so…??? (Wookieepedia article here.)

...thanks, you make me feel better about my spotty "TCW episodes watched" checklist XD (I have been avoiding a few of the Big Plot Drama arcs for months. I know what happens! I don't want to see it!)

the Mina Bonteri episode is good in the politics sense, and Mina has kickass tattoos, but if you're not watching for Padmé or Ahsoka you're gonna be bored.

the development of the war movie IS super fascinating! And so is the portrayal of war, armies and soldiers in SFF movies, because it reflects the same attitudes through different lenses. I mean I don't have any deep thoughts or unifying theories but it's just a very chewy topic.

Like for example, how the US army loans their equipment to Hollywood but in return has an input on how it is portrayed in the movies? MCU is a typical example. That's wild.
