I'll be the first to admit that the idea of a Boba Fett spinoff show wasn't something I was particularly interested in. I didn't see the potential in the character to carry his own series the way many of you may have. Yeah, he's cool looking "bad ass" (to an extent), and it's great to have Temeura Morrison back in Star Wars, but the character has always thrived as a secondary one. That's not necessarily a bad thing either! Some characters are designed to be secondary characters and that doesn't prevent them from walkaing away having incredible arcs over the course of a season/series or film. The creatives at Lucasfilm, Jon Favreau in particular, had been trying to get a Boba Fett "something" off the ground for a VERY long time and with his reintroduction in The Mandalorian Season 2, if they were going to do a Boba Fett series, now was the time. Robert Rodriguez hopped on board to direct some of the episodes and executive produce following his Boba Fett episode of Mandalorian, Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni assisted with the story and boom we have a show. After the first four episodes of Book of Boba Fett, not only was I impressed with the deep, nuanced, thematically rich, and emotional storytelling being put on display, but Lucasfilm managed to completely win me over and prove that Boba had more to offer than just being a cool bounty hunter that sells toys. The mined his development and history in The Clone Wars animated series and Attack of the Clones to create a story about a simply man trying to find family and community while escaping his violent past. I couldn't believe it but Star Wars was actually winning me over on the freaking Boba Fett show! But then, because of course it did, everything went wrong. The Book of Boba Fett Episode 5 onward completely derailed the show, hijacking it's title character's narrative and shafting the beautiful character work and build up that had been progressing in episodes 1-4. The Book of Boba Fett season 1 quickly succumbed to fan service, both new and old, and stopped becoming a show about Boba Fett and more The Mandalorian Season 3 or The Mandalorian Season 2.5. It is here we arrive at the problem with Book of Boba Fett: it stopped caring about Boba Fett and became Star Wars memberberries packed with CGI Luke Skywalker, Ahsoka, Din Djarin, Grogu or Baby Yoda, oh and the return of Cad Bane for five seconds. It became a HUGE problem, SO...let's break this down, let's talk about this. Griffin (@griffschiller) gives you his Book of Boba Fett analysis or The Book of Boba Fett review explaining why the book of boba fett failed as a star wars spinoff, what went wrong with the book of boba fett, and why the book of boba fett is bad. Enjoy!
