Chat corner 37: The Book of Boba Fett

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.)

I just saw the first episode yesterday and would agree. I think given the setup of this series the central issue is to address what's been happening with his story since RotJ so I was pretty satisfied with how they got on with it.

Agreed. I’m just not sure why some reviewers are giving it some harsh reviews when it’s just one episode so far. Looking forward to the next one tomorrow.

I just saw the first episode (heh, now I'm still one behind) and I liked it. I definitely wouldn't give a harsh review yet, there really wasn't enough of anything to judge on, IMO. Lots of setup and worldbuilding.

There have been some characterization decisions for Boba Fett that I'm kind of intrigued by, so I'm looking forward to seeing what they plan to make of the character.

That’s good! The first episode did a good job of setting things up. The second episode is better, now that the ball is rolling. I’m also curious to see where it goes.
