The Book of Boba Fett: The Tribes of Tatooine [1x02] ✦ Watchalong Reaction & Review

Comments

It seemed like Anakin in Attack of the clones had no problems to tell apart female and male tuskens. Also you know some people use certain frogs to get high so lizards don't seem that strange idea :D

Oh and I think Jawas and Tuskan Raiders are originally the same species, but diverged a long long time ago. Tatooine was originally I think a water world with trees, like you see in the vision Boba has, I think maybe that's why he saw maybe the jawa eyes in the tree.

Mos Espa is the town Anakin is from-- where Qui Gon and them landed in Episode 1. I don't think that guy the gang beat up in the first Boba episode was Cobb Vanth, I think it was just a very similar looking moisture farmer. I think they were looting him and gang tagging his farm as warning. In my head the warrior training Boba has always been female, and that made "her" my favorite character in this when I first watched it, though I saw something once that referenced them as "prince" or something. They just kinda read as a younger sorta frustrated mother lol. The Pyke make up is my ONLY gripe on prosthetics in this show. They don't look anything like the animated. I get, because of their name, they are supposed to be fish maybe, but they read as more snakeish in animated and I loved that. I got like an Egyptian vibe/style from them in Clone Wars. I also understand limitations on physical make ups, but it just is... not really a stand out to me, and they stood out so much in Clone Wars. Also, I like to think that a lot of stunt performers got to act as tuskans in this show. I admit I haven't paid attention to the credits though. <3

That's fair. Sounds like a similar complaint that I've heard from some folks on why they aren't a fan of Andor. Story and worldbuilding leading up to the events of Rogue One instead of a ton of action. But this is also a good reason why it's best to not go in to anything new with certain expectations. Personally, I'm satisfied with the Boba action from everything else I've seen of him (OT, Clone Wars, Mando) and I'm really enjoying this side of things.

I think some of the hate this show got, is cause people were expecting an action packed show of Boba bad-assery. I like it for what it is. Storytelling and world building.

That Warrior Wookie has a great back story that’s in the comics but I don’t want to say any spoilers. He is one of Star Wars bad ass characters.

Perry Campbell

Great reaction. I believe that this is the first live action of Mos Espa. Luke visited Mes Eisley not Mos Espa in the OT and we visited Jabba's palace which is outside the city. The Mayor's species was in the scene in the cantina in episode IV but just a few koments on passing amd looked different with prosthetics they used

Oh I haven't watched any Star Wars deleted scenes from the films! I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the info. Completely agreed with your last remarks.

Another great, refreshing drink for Boba More easter eggs: When Boba confronts the bandits to save the couple, that was actually Tosche Station that Luke references in Episode 4. The couple that Boba saves are two of Luke's friends that were in a deleted scene in Episode 4. I agree this is one of the better star wars things. Like you said it's so different and so well done. By far my favorite episode of the series. I remember being skeptical of the show before it came out, was cautiously optimistic after the first episode and then when this one came out i just assumed it couldn't get better but it made me really hyped for more. The thing I thin that sets it apart from other star wars is the community aspect. We get a lot of personal relationships even with groups, but this is about one whole community and how they can be accepting and change our perspective. There are no individuals and the community is one as a whole.

They are so great!

The Tusken Raider Warrior that trained boba is my favorite Star Wars character. I don’t even know if it’s a man or women, Wich is crazy. They should do a show on the Tusken Raiders, I think they got a bad reputation because of one tribe sigh

Perry Campbell

Love that! And love the incorporation of a comic character.

kaiielle

Yep, their INCREDIBLY different look from The Clone Wars confused me. 😅

kaiielle

I am so glad you're enjoying this show! I had a feeling you would but I never thought you'd like it this much! But it's great to hear!

The wookie is named Black Krssantan. He's from the comics and he's no joke having gotten that scar on his eye from Obi Wan Kenobi.

Jam

You are correct in your assumption that we've seen the aliens from the train before. They are members of the Pyke Syndicate, which we've seen cooperating with Maul during his rule over mandalore, and which also are the group that Ahsoka and her friends ran Spice for and later stole Spice from during that one Clone Wars Season 7 Arc.
