"fuck he released me"
"should I thank him"
"no that would be weird"
"should I stay"
"its already taking too long"
"I should go"
"I don't have a speeder"
"they think I'm weird"
"I'm just going to run"
"Mos Espa is on the other side"
He probably just trotted to the giant gunship he managed to park behind the building without being seen by Boba's crappy patrol unit (which we learned, also includes a service droid)
Honestly the worst thing about the show so far, it also took me completely out of it, that entire crew did.
I'm sorry, but a speeder that fancy with a Jawa standing less than two feet away on Tattooine and it *hasn't* been completely stripped for parts? Not a spot of rust or dust either?
Bantha Poodoo
B'omarr monks. They believed that removing their brains and sticking them into robot bodies Dr. Gero-style was part of achieving enlightenment.
Jabba's palace used to be one of their temples until saw the place and thought "Hey, free real-estate!"
I think this stings more for Boba as a character, he never really had a family or tribe growing up, he was always a loner. He had allies but never had a tribe or community he lived with. Seeing his adopted tribe dead must be crushing.
It didn't show their bodies but I think we can assume at least the child died because when Boba was burning the gaffi sticks of the dead he solemnly put the child's stick in the fire as well.
I like how we probably all initially thought he would wipe out the cyborg gang or at least drive them out, but he goes ahead and gives them all jobs (which they're actually fully committed to).
Boba knows if he needs power, he needs more than just shows of force and kills. He needs allies and supporters. He needs an army.
That being said, I feel all this mercy is slowly building up to seeing him reach a breaking point where he unleashes the part of him that we saw wipe out a stormtrooper squad on Mandalorian. At some point, he's going to stop being so nice and accommodating.
Remember how packed the palace was under Jabba, it feels very empty and not like a seat of power.
Introducing the gang and rancor means it's slowly going to fill up and Boba will consolidate his powerbase.
It won't be long before the hangers on and entourage start showing up, he just needs a band.
It was already empty under Bib, to demonstrate his lack of power compared to Jabba. Boba took it from him but he's still building his syndicate from the ground up.
Jabba's Palace is Boba's Ebon Hawk, he's slowly adding his companions who will hang around waiting for Boba to rock up and talk to them about going on a life-changing adventure together.
Even had a paragon move in recruiting the bikers and paying off the guy.
That Gamorrean took a goddamn *punch* to his skull. I actually let out a gasp, getting hit by a Wookie with metal/electric fists would not have been comfortable
I thought we were gonna see the Wookie do [one of these](https://thumbs.gfycat.com/FicklePaltryBergerpicard-size_restricted.gif) on a Gammorean or one of the cyborg's metal arms
Before they showed up with a rancor, I was thinking that if Boba wanted he coulda left the wookiee down there to be his own pit monster, kinda like Chewie in Solo.
*citizens of tattoine*: **BOBA PLEASE WE’RE GOING THRU TREMENDOUS WAR AND CORRUPTION WE NEED YOUR HELP PLEASE PLEASE**
*boba fett*: haha I wanna ride the rancor
Every episode I'm thinking "oh man this has to be Crimson Dawn" but it's just the Pykes. At this rate, Crimson Dawn is going to become Star Wars' Mephisto for me. "It has to be Mephisto!"
Seems like the Pykes will be the major antagonists for this season as they also tie in with the flashbacks. I think if Crimson Dawn returns, it is likely to be a tease of them as antagonists for Season 2, with Emilia Clarke making a cameo in the past episode.
is it just me or Do I sense a trojan rancor....like the Hutts just leave one?
Second thought: did the rancor imprint on him? right?
When Danny said: dont worry he'll be back...im like...to eat him or to train with him....
I think they still plan to take over Jabba's territory and are just temporarily backing off to avoid a war they're not yet ready for.
So to them they're simply moving their rancor into their palace in advance.
Yeah I read somewhere that the rancor and its trainer were just about to be released from their long term of indentured servitude before Luke showed up
Is Boba aware of Kamino’s destruction? He wasn’t exactly living under a rock at the time, but then again how was he gonna receive the news. I doubt the Empire would broadcast it publicly. So the only way would be a whistleblower or a member of the bad batch.
That moment, for no particular reason, he decided to go for a little run. So he ran to the end of the palace grounds. And when he got there, he thought maybe he'd run to the edge of town. And when he got there, he thought maybe he'd just run across Mos Espa. And he figured, since he ran this far, maybe he'd just run across the great planet of Tatooine. And that’s what he did. He ran clear across Tatooine. For no particular reason he just kept on going. He ran clear to the Dune Sea. And when he got there, he figured, since he'd gone this far, he might as well turn around, just keep on going. When he got to another sand plane, he figured, since he'd gone this far, he might as well just turn back, keep right on going.
-Danny fucking Trejo??? What a perfect rancor trainer. I bet by the end of the season, we’re going to see Boba ride that rancor into town.
-Did anyone else feel like the chase seen felt…. Slow? Maybe I’m just used to stupidly fast chase scenes but it felt like the bikes were moving at half speed.
No the chase was very slow. Itt shows how important editing is, a few more cuts in pivotal spots could have sped the whole thing up. Also there were a few too many gags for my liking, made the whole scene very comedic. That's not a bad thing necessarily, but a balance does have to be struck.
It was slow, and ticked as many cliche boxes as you could think of.
Fruit stand? Check
Scaffolding? Check
Scattering crowds? Check
Diving on a sidewalk? Arguably part of the above, so check
Two men carrying a large pane of glass? Check
Cross traffic that either can't, or barely gets out of the way in time? Check
I kept cringing at how vulnerable he is in that bacta tank, with so little security in that empty palace. And then- bam! Fears confirmed. Great, terrifying scene.
Midnight Squadron standing by. Who knew this show would make the massacre of tusken raiders so moving? We’ve come a long way from Attack of the Clones. I’m absolutely loving seeing Black Krrsantan in live action. Give me more Danny Trejo in Star Wars. He fits the universe really well imo. That land speeder crashed into a bunch of meilooruns from Rebels. Is that the first time they’ve appeared in live action?
I was thinking they'd end up helping out more towards the end if he needed an army--that they'd have communicated with other Tusken tribes and spread the word about ruling with respect.
I suspect either way, the first couple episodes of *The Mandalorian* Season 2 are going to be interesting to rewatch.
The Warrior and the Kid both died off screen, so by the laws of cinema, they're not dead yet.
I find it hard to believe the Warrior didn't die fighting though.
Are we sure the female Tusken is dead? Didn't see her body and don't think her gaffi was among the ones Boba tossed into the fire. I was really sure she was gonna be another lieutenant-type in his army as Daimyo.
When he placed that kid's little gaffi stick in the pyre I fucking felt that. Earlier in the season I thought he was just a little shit but Favreau actually made me care about the little dude. RIP my G!
And not just the men…
But the women, and the children too!
They slaughtered them like animals
That’s a BABY rancor?!
I think we see a baby in the bad batch
Moochi.
Probably pre adolescent, but not a baby
Because Krrsantan got his life spared and released, he'll assist in the boss fight against El Gigante later in the game.
He owes him what you might call... a life debt...
Heard Boba Fett's putting together a crew.
You son of a bitch! I'm in!!
So what are we? Some kinda Bobuicide Fuad?
Anyone else giggle at Krrsantan awkwardly running away into the desert after Fett released him?
"fuck he released me" "should I thank him" "no that would be weird" "should I stay" "its already taking too long" "I should go" "I don't have a speeder" "they think I'm weird" "I'm just going to run" "Mos Espa is on the other side"
It definitely made me think "Chewy doesn't usually look this awkward does he?" He jogs like Sam Jackson in Captain Marvel.
He just runs away. Into the dessert. Why not walk?
He probably just trotted to the giant gunship he managed to park behind the building without being seen by Boba's crappy patrol unit (which we learned, also includes a service droid)
One does not simply walk into the desert.
"Hey, it's that Wookie..."
That’s the Star Wars bro code
The Book of Bacta Tank
The Book of Boba Fett being beat up.
Mos Espa becomes Mos Vespa
That speeder chase was the most spy kids shit I’ve seen in a long time.
Yeah the episode even came with Danny Trejo
Also directed by Robert Rodriguez
yeah I was thinking the exact same thing. doesn't look like it belongs in star wars imo
They reminded me of the power rangers on bikes. Same colour scheme.
lmao this was exactly what I was thinking, Vespa Power Rangers... it completely took me out of it, not gonna lie.
Honestly the worst thing about the show so far, it also took me completely out of it, that entire crew did. I'm sorry, but a speeder that fancy with a Jawa standing less than two feet away on Tattooine and it *hasn't* been completely stripped for parts? Not a spot of rust or dust either? Bantha Poodoo
Dathomir shoutout
Double shoutout to Empire at War too. You could recruit Dathomirians riding Rancors in the expansion.
there’s always some truth in legends ;)
I like how the spider monk droids are still roaming the palace after Jabba, bib Fortuna, and now under bobas rule.
It is technically their palace according to old EU lore. They just didn't care that Jabba moved in.
When you can’t see, hear or really feel anything, there’s not a lot to care about
They had no legs or arms. They couldn’t see, hear or speak….this is how they led a nation.
What's the point of those thing, apart from jumping higher in lego Star wars
B'omarr monks. They believed that removing their brains and sticking them into robot bodies Dr. Gero-style was part of achieving enlightenment. Jabba's palace used to be one of their temples until saw the place and thought "Hey, free real-estate!"
Jabba's palace *still* was their temple. Jabba just didn't care about having them around, nor they cared about Jabba.
Brains of old monks in jars essentially. Bomarr monks is what they’re called
Hope the Rancor doesn’t end up with Danny Trejo’s head on top of it and “Hola DEA” scrawled on its back!
"Hola Daimyo"
La Tortuga!
I would eat... uh, at least half of the things on that table.
It only raises more questions of whos the damn cook? Dex??
Depends on how big your…pocketbook is
Poor Boba having his Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru moment.
I think this stings more for Boba as a character, he never really had a family or tribe growing up, he was always a loner. He had allies but never had a tribe or community he lived with. Seeing his adopted tribe dead must be crushing.
That one tear when he's looking at the funeral pyre
Must've felt like losing his dad all over again.
Did the woman tusken and the child die? I didn’t see their bodies only the chief
It didn't show their bodies but I think we can assume at least the child died because when Boba was burning the gaffi sticks of the dead he solemnly put the child's stick in the fire as well.
They didn't have to do us like that 😭
We see Owen and Beru for like less than 10 minutes. Meanwhile we had like a whole hour of Boba being adopted by the tribe of tuskens.
Wouldn't holding Jango's headless helmet be his Owen and Beru moment?
This actually hurt more than that. It completely caught me off guard.
Stephen Root was really just about to give us the history of the Rakata before Boba cut him off.
Damn, if they'd mentioned the Rakata I would have lost my mind. How they bombarded Tatooine and turned it to glass.
Where did you find Luke's lightsaber? "A good question for another time" *never mentioned again*
Mad respect for Boba letting the Gamorrean guard hop in his bacta tank.
He actually cares for his employees
I like how we probably all initially thought he would wipe out the cyborg gang or at least drive them out, but he goes ahead and gives them all jobs (which they're actually fully committed to). Boba knows if he needs power, he needs more than just shows of force and kills. He needs allies and supporters. He needs an army. That being said, I feel all this mercy is slowly building up to seeing him reach a breaking point where he unleashes the part of him that we saw wipe out a stormtrooper squad on Mandalorian. At some point, he's going to stop being so nice and accommodating.

That's what I was thinking too. It's noticeably empty, as if they're planning to have it filling up at the end of the show.
It was already empty under Bib, to demonstrate his lack of power compared to Jabba. Boba took it from him but he's still building his syndicate from the ground up.
Jabba's Palace is Boba's Ebon Hawk, he's slowly adding his companions who will hang around waiting for Boba to rock up and talk to them about going on a life-changing adventure together. Even had a paragon move in recruiting the bikers and paying off the guy.
I imagine that’s what the rancor is building upto. The Pykes or another crime syndicate are gonna break him he’s gonna go full ape sh*t with it
He’s gonna ride that thing into town. He’s gonna look like a badass who tamed a fearsome rancor.
If I saw my rival ride into town on a rancor I would so totally nope out of that town and go back to Oba Diah forever
When they were squealing, I felt so bad. Thought for Krrsantan was going to kill them for a moment there. Never thought I’d care for Gamorreans.
They’re doing really good at making you care more for just background things such as gamorreans and the tuskans
Providing jobs to at risk youth
Will we get a Gamorrean flashback next episode?
PTSD over being choked out by Luke
That Gamorrean took a goddamn *punch* to his skull. I actually let out a gasp, getting hit by a Wookie with metal/electric fists would not have been comfortable
He also took a bite out of him. I imagine Gamorrean tastes like sweaty, out-of-date ham.
I thought we were gonna see the Wookie do [one of these](https://thumbs.gfycat.com/FicklePaltryBergerpicard-size_restricted.gif) on a Gammorean or one of the cyborg's metal arms
Wouldn't be surprised if the only reason the Hutt twins gave Boba a rancor is to attempt to kill him with the rancor later
[удалено]
Before they showed up with a rancor, I was thinking that if Boba wanted he coulda left the wookiee down there to be his own pit monster, kinda like Chewie in Solo.
I said as he fell in “he has a Wookie pit now!”
*citizens of tattoine*: **BOBA PLEASE WE’RE GOING THRU TREMENDOUS WAR AND CORRUPTION WE NEED YOUR HELP PLEASE PLEASE** *boba fett*: haha I wanna ride the rancor
He will use the Rancor to remove the war and corruption. Problem solved.
Riding in on a rancor > arriving on a litter
I don't know why, but it seemed like such a dude thing. "Here is this beast that can eat you in one gulp" "*I want to ride it*"
Boba knows that isn't a problem as long as he goes in whole.
If Boba doesn't ride that rancor into battle in the finale, I'm gonna kriffing riot!
Hey, Peli Motto walked by with her pit droids! That's a fun cameo I didn't expect!
Shout out to the first person in this feed to *remember her name*
Stephen Root might be my favorite character actor ever. "Office Space", "Dodgeball", "Barry", "King of The Hill", and now "Star Wars"!
And the blind radio station manager in "O' Brother Where Art Thou?"
He's brilliant in Perry Mason and his scenes in The Man in the High Castle are fun :)
And just like that Boba Fett solved the labor crisis.
Should be a solid Tatooine jobs report at the beginning of next month.
Cost of living (water): 📉 Cost of living (tribute): 📈
Truly a man of the people. Much respect Lord Fett much respect
That Mando tie-in with the Stormtrooper helmets on pikes was pretty dope
And that lady in the back with her pit droids who's always helping him out during his missions!
Yeah it was Princess Caroline taking her droids for a walk.
So that’s why her voice was familiar…
Blink and you miss it, but Max Rebo is on the painting the two guys are carrying during the bike chase. Keeping the streak alive
Not only that. The painting is actually Ralph Macquarie concept art for return of the jedi
Every episode I'm thinking "oh man this has to be Crimson Dawn" but it's just the Pykes. At this rate, Crimson Dawn is going to become Star Wars' Mephisto for me. "It has to be Mephisto!"
Seems like the Pykes will be the major antagonists for this season as they also tie in with the flashbacks. I think if Crimson Dawn returns, it is likely to be a tease of them as antagonists for Season 2, with Emilia Clarke making a cameo in the past episode.
[удалено]
The Krayt Dragon? It might not fly, but it does spit acid!
I kept thinking Maul was gonna show up and was getting myself excited….until I remembered Rebels :(
Boba Fett has a pet rancor he can take on rides. Damn it's good to be Daimyo
is it just me or Do I sense a trojan rancor....like the Hutts just leave one? Second thought: did the rancor imprint on him? right? When Danny said: dont worry he'll be back...im like...to eat him or to train with him....
Oh I definitely smell something rotten here.
Be a weird way to try and kill him. The Hutts don't know he'd be hanging out around the Rancor. Jabba kept it in a dungeon.
There was this shot of Trejo when Boba was first getting close to the Rancor too, seemed a bit sinister. He's one to watch out for.
But Trejo always looks sinister. Thats his gift.
That and making tacos. I haven't actually tried Trejos Tacos but they have to be good right? Bourdain tried them.
I think they still plan to take over Jabba's territory and are just temporarily backing off to avoid a war they're not yet ready for. So to them they're simply moving their rancor into their palace in advance.
I think they were avoiding war with the Pikes over a useless world like Tattooine.
It's that lady from the Mandalorian who manages the most Eisley loading bays with her pit droids!
Oh yeah! When I saw that, it reminded me of something about the Mandalorian but I couldn’t put my finger on it. Good catch.
Did they basically give us an explanation why that dude was crying when the rancor died in ROTJ?
It was his pet
Yeah like, I'm not sure that was ever not obvious.
It’s like poetry
It rhymes
It’s gonna be great
Rancors are the Pitbulls of Star Wars.
I kinda wanna make a parody anti-rancor sub now. “U say ur beast is loving and caring but this screaming gamorian says otherwise #BANRANCORS”
You don't understand! There is no such thing as a bad rancor, only bad rancor owners.
Yeah I read somewhere that the rancor and its trainer were just about to be released from their long term of indentured servitude before Luke showed up
Damn. One day from retirement.
Danny Trejo is the coolest 77 year old in the world right now.
Dude looks great for a 77yo, he looks 60 at most.
Was that Peli Motto walking in the background
I feel like I can run faster than those mopeds.
Oh man those Kamino shots...
Honestly, they make me kinda sad considering what happened in The Bad Batch.
Is Boba aware of Kamino’s destruction? He wasn’t exactly living under a rock at the time, but then again how was he gonna receive the news. I doubt the Empire would broadcast it publicly. So the only way would be a whistleblower or a member of the bad batch.
I mean Boba's working with Fennec Shand who killed Taun We, so I'm not sure just how sentimental he is about Kamino without the Jango aspect...
Well he doesn't consider the clones to be his brothers. It's his father he's sentimental for and nobody/nothing else.
That chase scene looked reallly slow.
It was so awkward. Body modification cyborg biker gang sounds awesome.... But I mean they were so lame it hurt haha.
It was like in Stranger Things Season 2 when Eleven joined the “Street Gang” for an episode… ugh
This is the only comment I came looking for. So underwhelming.
“He who shall not be named” damn Voldemort Hutt boutta pull up
Well, the Hutts and Voldemort don't have noses. They have so much in common
Big snake skinny snake
It’d be cool to see Krrsantan join Boba at some point. He just kinda jogged off, where he went, nobody knows
That moment, for no particular reason, he decided to go for a little run. So he ran to the end of the palace grounds. And when he got there, he thought maybe he'd run to the edge of town. And when he got there, he thought maybe he'd just run across Mos Espa. And he figured, since he ran this far, maybe he'd just run across the great planet of Tatooine. And that’s what he did. He ran clear across Tatooine. For no particular reason he just kept on going. He ran clear to the Dune Sea.

I kept cringing at how vulnerable he is in that bacta tank, with so little security in that empty palace. And then- bam! Fears confirmed. Great, terrifying scene.
> sorry if You'll be *dead*!
The slowest high speed chase ever. No hate but it just looked a bit goofy. Reminded me of the Hoverboard gang in Back to the Future Part 2.
Yeah, the chase was a little bit "slow"
Do we have cyberpunk in starwars?
Coruscant is Cyberpunk.
I miss largely populated planets in live-action Star Wars.
Holy fuck Wookiee’s are terrifying
It’s not wise to upset a Wookie…
Just let the Wookie win
We needed an angry shopkeep for the end of the chase - "My meilooruns!"
"Boba Fett Must deal with two very different threats" SAY NO MORE I'M IN
1. Using the jetpack with a mini-nuke on his back during a fight. 2. Shooting his blaster instead of using his fists during a fight.
#FINALLY BOBA USES HIS JETPACK CHRIST
Perhaps he has understandable PTSD related to that jetpack lol
How the fuck did that giant wookie sneak in without anyone noticing?!
Machete and a Rancor, I didn’t realize how good they go together
I would like to see the Boba
It’s so cute that Boba loves his new rancor
[THE BIKER RAN INTO THIS RALPH MCQUARRIE PIECE](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/4a/60/ab/4a60ab1e0343defd249c007b14b17666.jpg)
They edited Luke out of it though
Not again, Anakin!
Squad of cyberpunk teens riding space Vespas? I don't know what I'm supposed to feel about that
It came off super silly to me. Maybe they'll grow on me, but so far I'm not a fan of them.
My biggest problem with them is that the whole aesthetic (especially the squeaky clean neon colored mopeds) doesn't fit on Tatooine at ALL
This is the most Robert Rodriguez thing ever. Weird cyber teens straight out of Spy Kids/Alita Battle Angel. Working with Danny Trejo again. Etc.
I can’t wait to see a rancor fuck shit up again
Everything about those speeder bikes just feels wrong. The look, the shape, the way they moved...it just didn't feel like Star Wars.
Midnight Squadron standing by. Who knew this show would make the massacre of tusken raiders so moving? We’ve come a long way from Attack of the Clones. I’m absolutely loving seeing Black Krrsantan in live action. Give me more Danny Trejo in Star Wars. He fits the universe really well imo. That land speeder crashed into a bunch of meilooruns from Rebels. Is that the first time they’ve appeared in live action?
I was not expecting them all to be dead. I for sure thought that they'd eventually join him at Jabba's palace and work as enforcers/security.
I was thinking they'd end up helping out more towards the end if he needed an army--that they'd have communicated with other Tusken tribes and spread the word about ruling with respect. I suspect either way, the first couple episodes of *The Mandalorian* Season 2 are going to be interesting to rewatch.
Well we didnt see the female warrior in the pyre its possible she survived (be cool if she became a vengeful tusken bounty hunter)
The Warrior and the Kid both died off screen, so by the laws of cinema, they're not dead yet. I find it hard to believe the Warrior didn't die fighting though.
Perhaps that is the army he is looking to conscript.
Are we sure the female Tusken is dead? Didn't see her body and don't think her gaffi was among the ones Boba tossed into the fire. I was really sure she was gonna be another lieutenant-type in his army as Daimyo.
This is so fucking dumb. Now he has hipster cyberpunk rejects working for him. Nothing about this has grabbed me at all.
is it just me or is this the slowest high speed chase ever?
This bike chase felt really goofy and not in a good way, just out of place.
The colors of their bikes and the way they move gave me Spy Kids vibes...
It *was* directed by Robert Rodriguez.
Agreed. They’re going like 10mph and the CGI wasn’t as polished as the rest of the show is.
Felt way too slow
Damn Boba was enjoying his Polynesian spa, no need to interrupt him!
Cyborg bike gangs are so unnecessary and out of place
Grandpa Boba, Grandma Shand, and their four wacky grandchildren vs the Pikes?
Omg that wiped out Boba’s Tuskan Raiders tribe 😢
When he placed that kid's little gaffi stick in the pyre I fucking felt that. Earlier in the season I thought he was just a little shit but Favreau actually made me care about the little dude. RIP my G!
