SPOILER TBOBF Ep. 3 - The Streets of Mos Espa

Thanks for sharing, @Lazarus Dei You know it's gonna be badass when these TOYS bring goosebumps.

 

Good stuff!

That running schedule gag has been one of those 'little things' that brings a smile to your face at the moment but you tend to forget once the episode is over.

Given Boba's penchant for 'picking up strays,' I wouldn't be surprised if we find the Majordomo working for Boba next episode.

 

Yeah, I know what you mean.
But there are only 4 episodes left and the possible threats are so uninteresting with no strongs aspects, if you know what I mean.
For me until now has been a little of random something here, a little random there. You don't built like this a story with tension, purpouses, menacing threats and an intentionally "who will be".
You don't say "will be a war" when you only have introduced a graffity group of killers, 4 Pikes and a gang with colored scooters. Cause right now, as we know as viewers, the Pikes will have to fight against 2 gamorreans and 5 random steal waters. Alhough we will probably see Boba recruiting here and there, at this point, this is sad.
Of course the last episodes can be cool. I just say that what has been built so far doesn't give a sense of an epic story cause only there are a lot of little and random ideas.

 

The wifey and I have binge-watched a wide variety of shows that had a mystery component to them that kept us guessing through the majority of its season. The twists and turns were part of what made them fun to watch.

But when you're watching an action-adventure show like TBoBF one episode at a time, once a week -- and hyper-analyzing it to death like we do here -- the abrupt changes to the plot can become frustrating to fans expecting to see one epic story that's laid out in a linear fashion from the get-go. At least to this point, that's not what this show is giving us.

I'm not keen on using non-Star Wars examples here, but that said, I thought Marvel's Loki series did a great job of keeping you guessing all the way through to the final minutes of the finale. So in my book, there's plenty of time yet for the script to establish a nasty, new threat beyond the Pykes if that's where Favreau is going.

 

Sound like it has a problem with some of the audience not somehow understanding that intrigue and obfuscation of who Boba can trust and rely on and who he can't is intended.

 

It's obviously supposed to be a mystery who's manipulating things from the shadows. Of course the Twins didn't just bow out after being told off by Boba; of course the pykes are not the ultimate bad guys; of course someone's pulling strings; of course the nikto gang are just henchmen for a deeper villain; etc etc etc

 

But, of course!

 

We'll never know.
