Introduction and Jennifer Beals
00:00:37
Speaker
Welcome back to Han Took Shots First. I'm Derek. I'm Jack. That's our cleavage. I just realized we didn't introduce ourselves last time because we were too busy fucking up. Well, I know. this is where we should be distracted. Right? Fucking weapons of mass distraction. I'm trying to be professional in front of Jennifer Beals, dude.
00:00:55
Speaker
You think I have a chance with her? Think she likes a younger man that's in much worse shape than herself? You don't know what her kink is. I wish I
Episode Topic: Chapter 4 of The Book of Boba Fett
00:01:04
Speaker
did. This week, we are talking about Chapter 4 of the Book of Boba Fett, The Gathering Storm.
00:01:10
Speaker
Let's just double up on these so we can save on gas, y'all. This is one of the coolest and worst scenes. dad the The guys that are doubling up are the ones that he took the speeders from before. Well,
00:01:25
Speaker
that's why they got pissed at him and they killed all his friends. Yeah, allegedly. Allegedly. I mean, Fennec Shand, yeah, we she talks about it. Yeah. Wait, maybe if we do this.
00:01:37
Speaker
Well, that's just sexist.
00:01:43
Speaker
It's not sexist. It's pervy.
00:01:46
Speaker
What's what face? Put my head over her head. It's going to look tremendous. None of this will make sense to people listening on audio, but our background is a screenshot of the gorgeous Jennifer Beals playing...
00:02:03
Speaker
whatever Garga Fwip. Yeah, yeah. Garza Fwip. Garza Fwip, yeah, I would drink that. Looking amazing at 60 years old and we're just being perverts about it and disrespecting her because we're jerks.
00:02:15
Speaker
I mean, we're also trying to be respectful about it even though we are disrespectful jerks. We were just talking about how she looks amazing for her age. She doesn't look amazing for her age, dude. Yeah. She looks amazing.
00:02:26
Speaker
Yeah. Like, end. Low-key. For real, for real. I knew people, I knew girls I went to school with in college that didn't look like that. Yeah. Yeah. I know girls I dress up as that don't look as good as that.
Director Kevin Tancharoen's TV Work
00:02:40
Speaker
And this episode is directed by Kevin, I'm going to butcher it, Tancharon. Okay. Okay. I'm going to go with that. and sure um He does a bunch of TV. ah He's got a show that he directed most of or all of, I think, on Netflix that I have on my watch list because it looks interesting. It has ah um depression.
00:03:04
Speaker
You are so not namey. ah Fucking over here being like anti-namey Winehouse. It is easier for this man to pull a DVD off his shelf to figure out the name than it is for his fucking brain to use itself
Boba Fett's Storyline and Tatooine's Visuals
00:03:20
Speaker
and figure it out.
00:03:24
Speaker
Michelle Yen?
00:03:26
Speaker
Michelle Yao. Yao.
00:03:30
Speaker
i'm i'm I'm good, dude. It has Michelle Yao in it. It looks interesting. I have it on my list, but I haven't watched it um But he also directed ah he's done a bunch of TV like I said bunch of the different Arrowverse shows like pretty much all of them at one point Okay, okay, and then like 12 or 13 episodes of agents of shield so he worked with Ming-Na Wen before look there. i Yeah Yeah, you got that name, right?
00:03:54
Speaker
Yeah, although shall master assassin you right now. Oh Maybe I'll say it wrong next time
00:04:01
Speaker
You know you're going to die, right? Yep. Price you got to pay.
00:04:06
Speaker
We've got the same writing team here. I'm pretty sure Favreau is just the head writer, and maybe this guy just went and inserted himself because it just says staff writer on all of his credits. Uh-huh. He's like, I wrote this. i' I'm putting my fucking name on this thing, man. Fuck you.
00:04:19
Speaker
And it originally aired January 19th, 2022. So this one is mostly flashback. back to Flashback to. Yes. don't know why I can't remember that.
00:04:31
Speaker
He's not as good me. I like your name, by the way. I just saw that. Oh, thanks. Because that's one of the coolest parts of the episode. Yeah, it is. Absolutely. So there, there, he's, it's a Flashback. My name is Gonky Kong.
00:04:43
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Sorry. His flashback, it's him ah going to check out Jabba's palace because apparently that's where the biker gang hangs out who he thinks the people responsible for killing his whole family because the spray paint marking was on the the tent.
00:04:59
Speaker
Yeah. But, you know, much like... um episode four when it was like, oh, we made it look like it was Tusken Raiders, but only stormtroopers can be that accurate. So... Yeah, we see how accurate stormtroopers can be.
00:05:16
Speaker
So it's probably a little misdirection. I don't know if we ever actually find out. That's a season two storyline that got dropped. No, we get... I'm pretty sure we get it. Yeah, I'm pretty sure the finale covers it. I literally remember after this, I was like, and then it becomes Mandalorian and Boba Fett's not in the show.
00:05:30
Speaker
But he is. He is. There's one... Two episodes are that are Mando-lone episodes. And then there is the finale, which is back here, where it's Boba and everybody defending, and Mando comes back. Oh, that's right.
00:05:48
Speaker
They get back to Tatooine. Yeah, they get back to Tatooine. So I did notice, I don't know if I've seen this before, or I just never noticed. Get back to the choppa. Yeah. But he's he's out there spying on the palace trying to see who but the guards are and all that stuff.
00:06:02
Speaker
You've got the two suns in the background and it does the dissolve to night. And there's three moons. Mm-hmm. i mean, that might be something people know. I've never seen it, I don't think, i've or I've never noticed. it I think we see it in the Rebels cartoon when Maul and Obi-Wan duel for the final time.
00:06:19
Speaker
Okay, that would make sense because I don't think we've seen a lot of nighttime tattooing. Great fucking scene, by the way. Can't wait to get there. I think this show has the most nighttime tattooing we've ever seen. Okay.
00:06:30
Speaker
And most of it's ground level stuff. Like it was when Boba Fett was fighting the dog monster. Yeah, I guess. I guess you're, didn't even think about that. Like live action. but Do we even see night? i'm I'm pretty sure this is the first time in this show.
00:06:43
Speaker
Not right now, but in this show in general. Probably hard to shoot at night and fucking... Well, there's some Obi-Wan that happens at night on Tatooine. Sure, okay. But again, they're not showing the sky. he's you know That's when he's looking for baby Luke and all that. hi and Hiding a toddler under his trench coat.
00:07:04
Speaker
Peak cinema.
Boba Fett's Humorous Bantha Interaction
00:07:06
Speaker
Speaking of peak cinema, this Bantha acting like a dog that's also a human is hilarious because he say they did he's sitting there eating and like everybody's had a dog stare at them for food.
00:07:15
Speaker
This dude not only is staring at Boba Fett for the food, but he's licking his lips like a dude. He's just like... ah The way I was watching with Jessica Biel. ah Jennifer. Jennifer Biel's.
00:07:27
Speaker
And I was laughing my ass off when they show. He's like, you want some of this boy? And they show his tail and he's just wagging his tail literally like a dog. I was just like, okay. i imagine all right Imagine this thing fucking hitting you and he starts getting happy.
00:07:39
Speaker
I've had dogs knocking shit off the table before. This thing would knock you off your fucking chair. I thought you were going to say, imagine this Bantha humping you.
00:07:49
Speaker
Don't jump up and hump. Well, it doesn't matter now. Imagine this thing taking a shit in your kitchen. It would be your kitchen. Well, we live in this now. Boba Fett off in the distance spots the flares from ah Chapter 5
Saving Fennec Shand and Mod Parlor Scene
00:08:04
Speaker
going up in the air. and It took me a second, too. i was like, what is he seeing?
00:08:08
Speaker
like first The first one, I was like, but I don't know what this is. It was the second one that put me in. Yeah, exactly. I was like, oh, it's the scene with... ah but Toro Calican and Amanda trying to get Fennec Shand.
00:08:21
Speaker
So he goes off and finds her and we we get what happened at the end of that episode. He takes her to the mod parlor to save her life. Did you recognize this dude?
00:08:32
Speaker
I don't recognize him. I had to look him up. He's apparently a musician. Yeah, I know the music. It's Thundercat. Yeah, his name is Thundercat. But as soon as I saw him, he was so he was so mediocre at acting, but also the focal point.
00:08:48
Speaker
was like, this is a guy. This is somebody. like If I didn't know what T-Pain looked like, I would think it was him. I didn't look too deep into his stuff because he did have a couple of acting credits, but it was mostly like songs for movies.
00:09:01
Speaker
I'm wondering if he did songs for Robert Rodriguez at some point or something. Yeah. But Robert Rodriguez does a lot of his own music, too. So I don't know. He might just like the guy or Disney's working on something with him. That was that was going to be my my name instead of going to have a montage.
00:09:16
Speaker
I was going Thunder Fat. I like this one better. But yeah, he's like a music producer. He's a singer. And everything I read, I looked him up looked at a couple different places to see if I could get more information.
00:09:28
Speaker
Everything said producer, singer, bassist. So apparently he is known for bass playing. All right. Big question mark. You sure it wasn't racist? Maybe you just hate Tonkies.
00:09:41
Speaker
I feel like they're doing a callback for episode four because when Boa walks in with Fennec Shand, he's like, aren't you a little old to be here? Yeah. I mean, it could be anything, but just with it being Star Wars, I feel like it's someone was like, it's like that thing that she said to the guy.
00:09:58
Speaker
Or you're just conditioned to think that I just took it more as like, dude, you're fucking, this is a, this young kids game. You boomer. This is the equivalent of a, imagine a fucking 65 year old. mean, I guess I'm tattoo artists aren't judgmental, but if a 65 year old walked into a movie tattoo parlor or more like, aren't you a little too old for, for ink?
00:10:16
Speaker
Yeah. You know, real life. I'd be like, dude, let's get you fucking inked up old man. In real life. If a 65 year old showed up at like a trippy red concert or something, who I don't know who that is, except I know that my daughter has gone to one of his concerts, ah which is why it came into my head. That's how you know it's good.
00:10:37
Speaker
But I love he sets him down. He's like, this woman's about to die. and and then he just plunks down a bag of cash. And and ah fucking Thundercat's like, well, you should have started with that, dude. I hate some of the mods in this room.
00:10:49
Speaker
Some of the subtle ones are cool. But the guy that has, like, the big fucking eyes, you look ridiculous. Well, it's the difference between... ah Like someone who just soups up their car and someone who puts on a big spoiler and like fenders and a fucking cherry bomb thing on the tailpipe and all that shit. yeah why hate it. actually fix the car.
00:11:11
Speaker
um I also hate Thundercat's arm. So I read... Like the the big fucking claw hand, I was like, there's no way that's fucking useful. Then he puts on like the egg beater and i was like, well, huh.
00:11:25
Speaker
So I read in the trivia someone who's nerdier than you apparently. They don't exist. ah Apparently it's a battle droid arm from one of the the ones from the prequels.
00:11:36
Speaker
Oh yeah. it's So it can be like you can replace the tool at the end which is what like the picture I have here. He has the one that seems like a functional one for what he's doing though. He's got a little. going to make a frittata.
00:11:47
Speaker
He's got a little spinny blade and a little flamethrower. i don't know. The flamethrower is for char on the outside. The spinny blade is for cutting the pieces of frittata.
00:11:57
Speaker
I mean, it's ah it's again like the mods in the last episode. It's a cool concept. I just don't think it's super well executed. I do like it a little bit more that it's battle droid arm, but not enough.
00:12:07
Speaker
But this is where we get a montage. I'm talking about a montage. Because it's like five minutes of him like doing all this shit, like zipping around the room. The camera's doing the Michael Bay swinging around movements.
00:12:20
Speaker
Will Smith just sitting there breathing heavy. This probably is a smacking people. The music probably isn't by Ludwig Goranson or his his little sidekick that we talked about on the first episode. but It's probably a Thundercat song. Yeah, that's why they did it. They're like, we'll make you a five minute music video in this episode.
00:12:42
Speaker
So he gets her all fixed up, takes her out, and they're hanging out out in the desert. Well, this is a little later because he has a ship back, but it's it's the same scene. without Just erase the ship. Yeah, put the bantha instead of a ship.
00:12:54
Speaker
Yeah. um I thought I pulled both, but I guess I didn't.
Fennec Shand's Awakening and Team-up
00:12:58
Speaker
It's okay. They can imagine a bantha. But like she wakes up and she's like, what the fuck happened? Like, why where am I? And he's like, you'll finish shand.
00:13:05
Speaker
And she's like, I didn't say who am I? Yeah. where but she did How jarring would it be to come back from the brink of death? Like, huh? Well, first of all, I'm alive. Oh, my God. What happened to my stomach? Why is it Pistons down there now? Why is this man made of scars sitting across from me? Yeah.
00:13:20
Speaker
I do like the back of because she's like, um oh, um let me guess. I'm worth more lives. Like, yeah, you are. I'll pay you double. He's like, i don't want money. And she kind of looks at him like, did you? Did you want to fuck?
00:13:31
Speaker
because That would kind of be hot. All right. But who are you? Time number three or four, I'm Boba Fett. I'm Boba Fett. He doesn't do like the old school, I'm Boba Fett. It's I'm Boba Fett.
00:13:47
Speaker
He's got an I in his name when he's from New Zealand instead of an E. ah Boba Fett. I mean, here's little Boba Fett in here, but he's getting there. She's like, I thought she's like, no, Boba Fett's dead. And he's like, no, I was left for dead.
00:14:01
Speaker
And then I fucking fought my way out. Let me recap. Let me recap the first three episodes of the series for you. yeah I understand that he's upset that he's like left for dead.
00:14:12
Speaker
But man, Derek, we're good friends. And if I saw you fall into a Sarlacc pit, I'm assuming that you're dead. Yeah. Why would any of these, especially there's no allegiance. That's one of the big things he's looking for now is allegiance because he feels like all these bounty hunters and scums should have come after him.
00:14:28
Speaker
Yeah. No fucking way, dude. You're a commodity. You're a fucking weapon to these people. You're the first person to ever escape a Sarlacc also. so rep Correct. That we know of.
00:14:39
Speaker
If we had more listeners, some nerd out there like, actually, in the book, ah yada yada. But he tells her about like, you know, being rescued by the Tuscans and being trained by them and done ah then they were all killed by speed bikers. And she's like, yeah, I don't think it was speed bikers that killed a bunch of Tuscan Raiders, dude.
00:14:59
Speaker
no only Imperial droids can be that precise. Wait, what? No. ah Roger, Roger. Hey, were they more accurate than stormtroopers?
00:15:11
Speaker
Probably. Probably couldn't be less. They were computers, so it's got to help. Yeah. They did lose to Jar Jar. Yeah. And all he did was spill a bunch of balls.
00:15:23
Speaker
But he was a Sith Lord, so... I mean, he he literally home-aloned them. spilled um He spilled marbles and they fell down. But like even better than that, he Mr. Magoodum because he did it accident.
00:15:36
Speaker
But he's like, I need you to help recover my fire spray gunship. It's called. We never called it the slave one. We won't call the slave one now. It's called the fire spray.
00:15:48
Speaker
So she's like, all right, I'll help you out.
Infiltration of Jabba's Palace
00:15:50
Speaker
But if I do, my debt is paid. and He's like, as you wish. have to And it was at that moment that when Boba Fett said, as you wish, what he meant was, I love you.
00:15:59
Speaker
We can skip the whole rancor part if you don't want ah So they go scout out the palace She has this pretty cool little Skater droid doodad Yeah i but not a The sequence is cool But also maybe don't have 15 really bright red lights On your stealth robot ah Maybe Jabba has these things or ah ah Sorry ah Bib Fortuna has these things all over Like a droid doing this kind of thing Is so second nature to everybody now
00:16:32
Speaker
Yeah, because a lot of them, you know, the thing is smart enough to hide from a lot of the guards and and stuff. But like the guys going down the stairs were the ones that stuck out to me because this dude's going down a spiral staircase. The droid hides.
00:16:44
Speaker
But then it zips right past them until they turn the corner and then go up the stairs. Yeah. but Well, you see that fucking red thing come straight up. Let's go check it out. But it is a cool little piece of technology because like it gets them this readout where they get to see the thing and they're like, um,
00:17:01
Speaker
That's there' way too many guards. There's a lot of fucking guards. ah it It comes back and it's just like, ah so plan B, we don't storm the palace. But yeah, it's it's cool because you know they're like, hey, we need to figure out their patrols.
00:17:15
Speaker
And luckily this giant impenetrable fortress has a man-sized sewer.
00:17:24
Speaker
John McClane sized sewers. You had to get Jabba shits out of there. So ah you and correct. It didn't have those sewers when the the spider monks were living there.
00:17:36
Speaker
But once Jabba moved in, he's like, Baba do what? Which means retrofit them sewage pipes. You see how much this dude's eating. The droids are making. how how much food the droids are making.
00:17:47
Speaker
He's got man-sized bowels. Well, and it's not even the sewers. It's the grease trap because it comes right up into the kitchen, which, again, still makes sense. Blood and bile and entrails and shit. Well, I guess it's worse than actual feces.
00:18:01
Speaker
and And we we meet ah Chef Grievous. ah these two These two robots... the The chef one and then the the other one there that's like the it's I think it's the same as the 99 one that Luke Skywalker. Yeah, it's it's also I'm pretty sure that he's in episode six as Jabba's.
00:18:18
Speaker
Yeah, we've seen this guy ah a lot of times. He's doing the droid interviews. That's what he is. Oh, yeah. Okay. But, like, in the subtitles, it said Chef Droid, and then it said Sous Chef Droid, and that very much made me laugh.
00:18:34
Speaker
Oh, I wish I would have watched subtitles for that reason alone, dude. Jesus. That's fun. Yeah, the Grievous droid, for people that haven't watched it, I mean, he's it's it's a six-arm butcher knife thing. Yeah, there you go. Thank you.
00:18:48
Speaker
And he's just fucking chopping broccoli. And then as soon as there's like ah the, oh, he hears a noise. And but when he sees, um almost said Mando, Boba, he just fucking goes all arms up and then just starts spinning him like Grievous, dude. It's quite cool. Yeah.
00:19:04
Speaker
And apparently the internet hated it, but what don't they hate? So it, we are getting a lot of fan service and I'm fine with it. Like, um, coming up, we are going to hear a depth charge for the yeah second time in this series.
00:19:20
Speaker
And it's, a it's, I think this is the coolest one because it's not in space and I'm not complaining about it. Yeah. Like that's just me saying like, it's people understood. They're like, you know, the best part of the prequels, the depth charge, the sound,
00:19:31
Speaker
Hit him with the depth charge. Anytime this franchise is is plummeting, hit him with a depth charge. Like they take out the first droid, the sous chef. Yeah. Sorry, buddy. You're demoted. Fennec sneaks up behind Chef Grievous and like cuts this dude's throat like a mobster. With an acid knife or something.
00:19:49
Speaker
It's and whatever it is. It's fucking crazy. I've never thought I would see a droid get taken out by just a straight up like but from the back assassin. But it's got that little thin fucking neck stump. So she's just like stupid neck stump.
00:20:02
Speaker
Well, it's a stump now. Yeah, it was neck. It was a neck stick is what I was going for. Becomes a neck stump now. yeah um But they did call for a rat catcher droid before all that happened because they thought they heard rats.
00:20:18
Speaker
And this little dude shows up. I don't know what this little thing is. It's fucking, it's kind of funny. But the mostly the funny thing is when Boba Fett starts chasing this thing around like Ratatouille through the fucking kitchen and it like goes down through the oven and it's like trying to get past the flames.
00:20:36
Speaker
Boba Fett has a great line where he's like, he's trying to grab it. He's oh, where'd you go? Like he gets so fucking New Zealand. He means it. Where'd you go? Where'd you go? Where'd you It's a little too Disney for me.
00:20:49
Speaker
It's not a great scene. was laughing about the the the one delivery particular of in particular. It reminded me a little too much of Little Mermaid when Sebastian's running around the kitchen. I mean, I did say Ratatouille, didn't I?
00:21:01
Speaker
Yeah, but he's not running around the kitchen. He's running a kitchen. Well, somebody tries to catch him at some point, don't they? Yeah, the head chef guy. But yeah that's in an alley. Oh, okay. i think So maybe I was thinking of Little Mermaid. and Maybe I've never actually seen Ratatouille. I've just seen clips of it.
00:21:16
Speaker
yeah it's fine It's fun. It's fun. Janine Garofalo, Will Arnett, come on. Sharks of the corn? Virus shark? Cocaine shark? Sharktopus?
00:21:29
Speaker
Yeah, those are all real movies. Join me, Steve Coates, as each week I take a comedic look at the bizarre world of sharksploitation cinema on Bucket of Chum, the shark movie podcast.
00:21:44
Speaker
Hey, mister, I got an extra $3. I was wondering if there's any way you know I can spend it. Have you heard of Patreon? Never heard of it. What is it? You go to patreon.com slash worstpeople, give me your $3, and you can listen to a bunch of stuff that's way too inappropriate for your age.
00:21:59
Speaker
Oh, but I'm actually pretty old. I just sound like this. It's like a Benjamin Button thing. But anyway, I was going to ask you, what if I got my mom to give me a couple more bucks and I could give you more money? Oh, that's even
Patreon and Exclusive Content
00:22:09
Speaker
better. You can get ad free $5. $5?
00:22:13
Speaker
You also can get access to Latchkey Vids, our TV recap show of forgotten 90s garbage. Oh my God. I don't even know what that is, but I'm excited for it. You should be. So $5 is all I need. Then I get no more of these commercials.
00:22:25
Speaker
No more commercials. more commercials. boy. You get to hear us talk about a singing cop show and more. Well, golly gee willikers, Mr. and Miss. Thanks for all the information. I'm going to go see if I can find a mom to give me $5. Let's go beat that kid up and take his $5.
00:22:42
Speaker
It is kind of funny, though, raalel when he catches it. I referenced this on the last episode, but he catches this thing and like holds it up by its neck against the wall. He's like, oh, I am full of it.
00:22:54
Speaker
It's like this little this thing has one function. It's catch rats. It doesn't know what you just said. It's like the little the little butter droid from ah ah Rick and Morty. It's like, what is my purpose in life to bring me the butter?
00:23:08
Speaker
No? It's very funny, though. But like this thing's one purpose in life is to catch rats. He's like, I'm Boba Fett. And he's like, is that a new type of rat? I don't know what this means. Is a rat or is not a rat?
00:23:19
Speaker
He's not a rat. He's Boba Fett. All right, well, I don't fucking care. it it just switches itself off. It's like, don't cut my throat with the acid knife, please. I saw what you did to fucking Chef Grievous. No, thank you.
00:23:31
Speaker
Look, I can do it. I can do it. ble
00:23:35
Speaker
So they go sneaking around.
Escape from Jabba's Palace
00:23:38
Speaker
run into some guards, kill him. The alarm goes off. Big shootout. a lot of There's some cool action here. not Not a lot of great stuff, but there is some good stuff.
00:23:48
Speaker
Yeah, so Boba Fett jumps on the ship because she's like, get make sure it can fly. Otherwise, we have to change our game plan. And because of the way that this ship takes off and lands, it is useless in this fight. Because if it was, you know... um The Falcon. The Falcon has the upper and lower turds. it would The quad lasers that would just pop out and be like, obliterate.
00:24:10
Speaker
Yeah. You know, be done. But it's her fighting and he's just scraping this fucking thing. It's like watching your grandpa park, dude. You're just like that poor fucking Lincoln.
00:24:22
Speaker
It's like watching Cassian Andor try to steal Thai interceptor. There it is, dude. Man, you made a Star Wars reference that better than I did. You're talking about my grandpa. There's no grandpas in Star Wars, dude.
00:24:34
Speaker
Sheev Palpatine. i don't think he has kids. He's got he's raised grandpa.
00:24:42
Speaker
Technically, he's raised dad. If you want to go that way. No. Django Fett is Boba Fett's dad. He's a donor. But if that's what he's saying, then she's Palpatine is raised dad.
00:24:55
Speaker
because old doesn't make him a grandpa. he's He had a clone that had a baby. It's his ah the grand clone. The clone of a clone. It's his grand clone. a copy of a copy. Oh, that why that's why she was so, like, ah bland, because she's a copy of a copy, and all the detail had gotten Xeroxed out.
00:25:13
Speaker
It's like multiplicity. I like pizza, Steve. She touched my peppy, Steve. Wait, so which one's, like, weirdly homophobic, then?
Star Wars Rumors and Future Storylines
00:25:24
Speaker
Surprisingly.
00:25:28
Speaker
it's not Poe.
00:25:31
Speaker
Well, if it's got to be one of the clones, so it'd be a big ugly guy. Oh, Snoke. Yeah, because he he strikes me as like an incel type. have We got to talk about this fucking Ben Solo movie that's not going to happen.
00:25:45
Speaker
I'll watch it if it happens. it It won't. But there is a guerrilla campaign because people found out about it. And so i don't know if you know what's going on. No, I heard a rumor about it. That's it. It got leaked that there was that there was a big treatment for it. Adam Driver. And I cannot remember the fucking director's name.
00:26:03
Speaker
um worked out a script they brought the treatments to Disney it Kathleen Kennedy said yes so before people get all mad about that it was Iger and whoever else was up there was like no because Ben Solo's dead and that's it they had explained a way for it to either be that he didn't die or different ah time but it was the hunt for Ben Solo and we'll never get that Well, if it's the hunt for Ben Solo, then it's before he started calling himself Kylo Ren. Or he could be back because somehow he returned. and but Yeah, but I mean, to make it less lame, it could be before.
00:26:39
Speaker
and yeah and And Luke is hunting for him. but way I wouldn't mind i wouldn mind if they brought him back, though, because of the simple fact that now we can do a bunch of stories with him. Adam Driver, I think, is a great actor. um I enjoyed the Kylo Ren portrayal, and you know him as Ben Solo. Give me more of that.
00:26:56
Speaker
I'd be with it. Give me a trilogy. You know what I need? I need an in-between cool ah for the sequels just to talk about Kylo Ren and the Knights of Ren because we got nothing.
00:27:07
Speaker
Yeah. The Knights of Ren were mentioned, and I think we saw them in one shot, and then they were dead. It's not confirmed. It's just a big speculation that's probably true, that the Knights of Ren might have been started or heavily, heavily influenced by Khmer from Acolyte.
00:27:24
Speaker
and don't know if we talked about on the episode. I'd have to go back and listen, but when they like at one point when they show him, it's Kylo Ren's theme. like That just wasn't an accident. So what you're saying is it'll be a comic book and never a movie because it's somehow tied to the Acolyte.
00:27:38
Speaker
Yeah. No matter how much. ah What's the name? Jason. Oh, shit. Come here. Mani Jacinto. Mani Jacinto. That's why I thought Jason Jacinto. Well, he's Jason in Good Place.
00:27:50
Speaker
Oh, OK. That's why you thought Jason. As soon as you said it, I was like, I know who he's talking about. Give me a second. Manny Jason. Manny Jason in tow. No matter how good he was in that show, which was great.
00:28:03
Speaker
Yeah, it's it's never going to happen. Well, it was also really expensive. I mean, besides the fact that people just didn't really enjoy it, it had viewership. Now, but that's that's a whole that's a whole other conversation I was just talking to somebody about because TV shows, movies, they need to quit spending so much fucking money. Yeah. They keep they keep blaming us saying nobody's watching it. It's not making enough money.
00:28:21
Speaker
Make everything not cost $300 and you can make money. Yeah, you can do it. Dude, like lo-fi Star Wars can exist. Yeah. 11 million dollars. If you adjust that for inflation, what are we talking? Maybe 100. hmm.
00:28:34
Speaker
Come on. But either way, either way, CG is cheaper. So that's what they tell us. There's the whole fight. There is a cool part, though, ah just the what your name refers to, Gonky Kong.
00:28:47
Speaker
ah when Fennec's trying to like keep everybody at bay while he's getting the ship started. And there's this gonk droid four leg one. So like a super battery. Super battery for sure. Rolling through this thing. And this gave me video game vibes, but in a good way. Because she's like, oh, there's that thing that's red.
00:29:02
Speaker
She fucking blasts this gonk droid and it just takes out a bunch of these dudes. It is so fucking cool. like lithium battery catching fire. Yeah, it's like, she's like, oh, there's a Galaxy 7. i I kind of feel torn about it, though, because I'm like, i mean, depending how you feel about robots, like, you just fucking murk somebody's friend.
00:29:21
Speaker
Yeah, but she's also murdering a bunch of people. The only time, like, gonk droids aren't as, what's the word? sensey Sentient? Sentient, yeah. They're not as sentient, but just there's a real charming one in that ah Bad Batch show.
00:29:36
Speaker
They call him Gonky. Oh, okay. real Clever. What's your battery's name? Batterino. Battery. e Battery.
00:29:49
Speaker
But yeah, like, so she's like, or Boba's like, we got to get this gate open, otherwise we're fucked. She's fighting dudes off on like the the cargo bay or like the loading bay thing. And she's like, a little busy here, whatever. They do this whole thing. He maneuvers the ship. She blasts the counterweight. It opens the door.
00:30:06
Speaker
I think that's a, I like that part of the fight when she's on it. Cause like, I don't, I don't want to get off the ship cause I don't want left behind. Cause I don't, she doesn't fully trust him yet. I'm cringing at the, the ship scraping.
00:30:17
Speaker
It's my favorite ship. yeah. But I mean, he is stopping some people at least from shooting at her. Cause we see one of those Nickto dudes just running for his life. Cause the ship is right behind him and it's just dropping rubble on him. He's like, good God. He did use the thrusters. Can you please just shoot me with a laser and not crush me with a rock?
00:30:34
Speaker
Yeah. ah Dude, give me that size. Give me that fucking size. That death charge. It'll obliterate me. And he uses this thrusters pretty well. at One point to like knock everybody back, which I think is how she gets on the the ramp.
00:30:48
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Because he like tilts it and she sees it coming and moves out of the way. Yeah. um But they they get out of there. And we just basically cut to them chasing down the biker gang who are all fleeing.
Boba Fett's Revenge on the Biker Gang
00:31:00
Speaker
And he just fucking gloriously murders all of these dudes with everything in his arsenal. And I started saying earlier, and I think we switched, but this is a really cool scene. I love the idea, but it's partially not well executed because, again, being a full CG scene versus being like ah a volume scene. We've talked about this on some stuff like that.
00:31:20
Speaker
It doesn't look as good. The second they get hit with lasers, it is just CG... Give me dummies. Like, it's just CG fucking muck flying up and them flying off the fucking speeders.
00:31:32
Speaker
Yeah, we just cut to a scene from the Clone Wars cartoon. Yeah. And it's just like... yeah it' i did like yeah I did like the shot though like you see the shadow of the fucking slave one come up and you're like who and you know that he meant this shit because he he he's using like the main lasers and it's doing great and then he's like you know what?
00:31:51
Speaker
Rock it. I am going to waste the ordinance on you. You know why? Fuck you. You killed a baby. cant yeah i always had one rule as a bounty hunter.
00:32:02
Speaker
No children. But I'll change that rule if that baby's a dick. Well, yeah. If it's that little Jabba baby, fuck that thing. Ugh. ah Don't worry. It looks like he'll be in our Mando and Grogu movie.
00:32:16
Speaker
Yeah, Rhoda. But he's going to be all grossed up and gladiatorial. Yeah, he's not just a ball of gross. Mm-hmm.
00:32:26
Speaker
Some do I found out huts often will stay in the like it's like a baby's like a ah Joey pouch almost for like 50 years. Gross because they live. I think I don't think it's hypothesized that huts could live forever, but they either overeat or get killed because they're all gangsters.
00:32:45
Speaker
Even the old school ones were always warriors. Okay, yeah. I just Googled it to see if there's like a ah rough average. And that's literally what it says. It's like, Hutts have an average lifespan of around 1,000 years, but they can live for much longer. There's one called Zikros, who lived to be 1,700 years old. Okay.
00:33:05
Speaker
But, yeah. that and that And that's a good thing here. It's like they their long lives allow them to create and maintain empires and execute long-term plans. yeah Why do you think they've outlasted empires? Yeah.
00:33:17
Speaker
But yeah, they get all fat and murdered. If you don't piss everyone off. You know what? Last episode when Fennec is like, dude, we have to go after him. Or no, he says we have to go after him. And she's like, no, we can wait it out.
00:33:30
Speaker
You're going wait out somebody that can live to be a thousand? They'll literally just wait for you to die. I guess we don't know how old they are yet, but they can't be that old because they're Jabba's cousins or brothers or something.
00:33:41
Speaker
Something. Something related to Jabba. Yeah, they're huts. So that means like the 35-ish years or whatever? Or no, because he dies... Yeah, so the 35-ish years between episode one and episode six ah was like a... It's like he pissed someone off and then like a week later their kid came and killed him.
00:34:00
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah, pretty much.
Confronting the Sarlacc
00:34:08
Speaker
So Boba Fett goes off to look for his armor in the Sarlacc pit, which didn't make sense to me, but I guess... Yeah, it. Because he he crawled out with it on, but I guess he was so... Like in and out of consciousness and didn't know what happened so maybe he doesn't know Very very shell shock Yeah he's he just knows he got out he doesn't remember what happened I guess You know would preferred?
00:34:28
Speaker
Fuck the armor plot I'm going I still have a score to settle I know my armor is not in there I want to fuck up this Sarlacc Yeah I was going say because at least that their that's their whole thing is like we've because we saw the Sarlacc dead at some point Yeah.
00:34:44
Speaker
No. ah In Mandalorian season two, we have the greater crate dragon that took over a Sarlacc hole. Oh, okay. That's what i was thinking. Cause they were like, how big can this be? It's like big enough to fucking eat a Sarlacc.
00:34:58
Speaker
And so we looked up the anatomy of a Sarlacc for that episode and they are crazy under the sand. Okay. I was like, they're trying to explain how that Sarlacc's dead, but I guess that makes sense. All right. ah Um,
00:35:10
Speaker
But yeah, I love that he's like, I'm not getting near this thing. So he just like brings the fire spray up and like pushes the front of it into the pit. Like, let me look around with this, which is a good call because the stupid beak fucking comes at him.
00:35:24
Speaker
Yeah, it's like the anteaters nose. And ah this is when. um Now when i almost said May, I went fucking straight all the way back. This is when the cavalry, this is when agent may, uh, decides to drop the fucking, uh, depth charge on this thing.
00:35:44
Speaker
She has no idea. She either has no idea what she's doing or she has intimate knowledge of a fire spray. Maybe not the slave one, but a fire spray. Cause she's just like this button. I'm pushing this fucking button right here.
00:35:57
Speaker
Don't push the Dennis the menace. He's got to push flashing buttons all the time. Well, that's why when it happens, the depth charge falls out and the Sarlacc. It just shows rolls off the fucking ship, by the way. Yeah.
00:36:09
Speaker
And it like it it blows up. It has the cool sound and all the fucking dirt goes up around and shit. It is. It is one of the cooler ones, like you said, because it's not in space. That's why it ends, though, with Boba Fett just being like, next time, don't touch my buttons. Yeah.
00:36:23
Speaker
There's a thousand other ways we could have killed it. You chose that one. It got the job done, man. if If that hadn't swallowed... the depth charge, they would also be dead.
00:36:34
Speaker
Yeah. Or at least grievously injured. Maybe she was trying to. She's like, I'm not getting eaten. I'm going out right now with a big bat of boom. Oh, look at that. It worked. I do like her thing though. She takes off the seatbelt and like just falls to the front because they're face down. So you just like climb back up.
00:36:51
Speaker
That's why it's my favorite ship. Like I know millennium Falcon is awesome. It's right up there and I've gone back and forth, but it's a slave one because it's just such a cool fucking design. So he does go in looking for his armor comes out covered in goo.
00:37:05
Speaker
I like how she just pours some water on it. I guess it's like an acid that's just neutralized by armor. You don't have to actually buy water. You don't have to wash it off. it just it becomes the pH gets balanced out when you pour water on it. That's fine.
00:37:20
Speaker
But she's like, it's not Fight Club. She's like, because he comes out. He's like nothing in there, just junk. And she's like, um so don't do that anymore. Yes. You're going to die. You're going to get meat. More importantly, I'm going to die.
00:37:32
Speaker
The best car served its perfect purpose. It saved you from the fucking acid. So and then this is, you know, just to set it up, which we didn't need. She's like, you're going to need a back to tank.
00:37:45
Speaker
He's dreaming about when Fennec Shan told him he needed a back to tank while he's in the back to tank meta.
Fennec Shand Joins Boba Fett
00:37:52
Speaker
so That line I could have done without hot tub back to tank back to the future.
00:37:57
Speaker
So they have a little conversation. This is the shot I showed earlier. They're chilling with the fire yeah spray in the in the desert. About like, are you serious about forming your own house? And he's like, yeah. No, she's like, I'm in, but like, I'll do jobs for you. I respect my freedom too much. She's like, I can give you something better.
00:38:14
Speaker
can give you something that no fucking ah client or or whatever gave you loyalty. and And I'll cut you in on the success and I'll pledge my life to protect yours. And he does compliment her because that's what I was about to say was like, he's like, i need brains and muscle and you got both.
00:38:31
Speaker
Yeah. So. And he's like, yeah, she's that's what she tells him what everybody on the Internet said. The Tuskens made you soft. And he's like, no, they may be strong. You can't survive without a tribe. It's like I always said, your vibe attracts your tribe.
00:38:50
Speaker
ah You've never said that before, you liar. Well, that's after he started wearing those ah toe shoes and playing a lot of hacky sack. He's got some like live, laugh, love shit.
00:39:04
Speaker
Hunt, hurt, help. His last little ah back to the future moment is replaying the stinger scene from season two of Mando. He wakes up and the robot's like, good news.
00:39:17
Speaker
You're completely healed. It's a great timing because the next two episodes aren't about you. We're actually at a flashback, so we're just going to pull you out now. Is that chill? I forgot like when we talked.
00:39:29
Speaker
We didn't bring it up, or I didn't bring it up last episode, talking about after Black Chrysanthemum kicks everybody's ass a little bit. He's like, Boba Fett? Because that's this episode. We talked about it last
Boba Fett's Relaxed Demeanor
00:39:39
Speaker
time.
00:39:39
Speaker
What happens this time? No, black chrysanthemum. Oh, are you talking about in the club or are you talking about in the No, no, no, in the palace. He goes to kill Boba Fett. Once they said like drop him in the pit, Boba Fett comes out in a back to robe.
00:39:57
Speaker
He's straight up. I've never seen a bathrobe in Star Wars. And he comes out old fucking Hugh Hefner style. He's like, put that pig in the back to tank. It just kind of made me fucking laugh with this guy. Like, I just got my ass kicked, but I need my back to robe.
00:40:11
Speaker
Well, he's in his underwear, which don't exist in Star Wars, which means everybody can actually see his dick. This is just a Disney Plus sensor. ah You got to put pants on them. We can't show it. We're not showing dick. I guess that's why it's like this is an HBO guys.
00:40:23
Speaker
It's like midriff down to like mid thigh because he's like, well, those aren't technically underwear. They're just weird shorts. They're just really weird volleyball shorts. Oh, it's a lower half of a wetsuit. He was going surfing. He was he did grow up surrounded by waves and water.
00:40:38
Speaker
Yeah, he just he took the top. I ain't talking New Zealand.
00:40:43
Speaker
But ah he asked about the major. you know name? What? The planet he's from? ah you God damn it. i got when they They showed the flashback and i was I went to write it down and I was like, I'm just going to skip this part because I can't remember. I wrote Waterworld at first. I'll accept that answer.
00:41:00
Speaker
It's called... ah
00:41:05
Speaker
Nope. I don't got it. It's something to see. Camino. Camino. I kept wanting to say Corinthians and I was like, that's a Bible. I heard you say like, oh, he might be able to get there again. I wrote down Corinthian. I was like, that's the Bible. And then I and then i wrote down Corellia and I was like, that's spaceships.
00:41:21
Speaker
Uh huh. That's Han Solo's home. I know that. Yeah. All right. Cool. Kevin Owens. You've gotten there before. Yeah. Yeah. I just couldn't get it this time. I wrote Waterworld and then I was like, no, then we're going to talk about Kevin Costner. You've been having a day for names and things.
00:41:37
Speaker
I can remember names that have nothing to do with this. That's great. But like a she talks about how he's exactly ah the the major Domo is singing like a yuzum.
00:41:48
Speaker
<unk> which I had to look up. The Yuzum is ah Joe Yowza, or whatever his name is, the singer, or maybe it's the woman, one of the singers from the Max Rebo band the special edition. So it's either the stupid long-lipped CG character or the honeycomb stupid CG character.
00:42:08
Speaker
Yeah, I think it's the honeycomb guy because the name is Joe, J-O-H, Yowza. And Yowza sounds like a guy with a stupid fucking... I'm going to Google Joe Yowza. It's the grumbly guy. so Either way, it's some stupid CG character that shouldn't exist. I'm the guy that sings like this. kind oh No, no, no.
00:42:30
Speaker
Yeah, the worst part of that. yeah she's She's just as bad. She's bad. He's worse. yeah right He's like the DJ Khaled of the Max Rebo band. ah Another one.
00:42:43
Speaker
Another one. But he does mention here, he's like, I need to go out there and show my face like after all this shit went down um because power hates a vacuum and we need people to know that I'm still here.
Chaos at Garza Fwip's Club
00:42:59
Speaker
Yeah. ah So... We go to Garcef Whip's club. This is when Black Chrysanthemum is just, he's just pissed off drinking. Like he's just sitting there just just slamming this fucking Stein and slamming it down and staring at these Trandoshans. And I was like, what did they do to him? Is he just, does he just racist against Trandoshans? But now I found out. Kinda. Trandoshans.
00:43:20
Speaker
Well, wouldn't call But for purpose. Yeah, I wouldn't call it racist when their race was the one who just enslaved all of your race. Well, so no, they didn't enslave them. That's the empire. That sounds weird. That sounds almost real.
00:43:34
Speaker
The empire enslaved them. They hunted them. Oh, okay. I mean, they it toret especially towards the end, they helped the Empire, but like eventually the Empire was going to kill Trandoshans. Anyway, they have a religion where they believe in, i think it's it's either the Gamekeeper or the Scorekeeper is their deity, and you have to do all these fucking brave acts to get into whatever they their afterlife is.
00:43:56
Speaker
There is no Trandoshan, only Zul. There's only Zul. But if you fall back to zero, you have to work your way fucking back up. Falling back to zero is doing something cowardly. cowardly Oh, OK.
00:44:09
Speaker
Like hiding under a table when a giant Wookiee tries to kill you. I think it's just smart, though. I'm like, that's not cowardly. That's just smart. But I love that like he's just pissed off watching these Trandoshans have a good time.
00:44:20
Speaker
So he just starts beating the shit out of them. And Boba Fett comes in. He's just watching. Like, just smiling. Just kind of smirking. Like, all right, fuck a Trandoshan. Let's see where this goes. And Black Chrysanthemum holds this one up.
00:44:34
Speaker
Oh, right before that. beats the fuck out of all four of these guys. But the one he holds up has that classic like bar brawl moment of like somebody smashing a bottle over the guy who's too big, and he just gives that slow turnaround, and the guy's like, uh-oh.
00:44:51
Speaker
I should have had a little pee running down his leg. i mean, maybe they did, but we don't know where their pee comes out. Yeah, Trandoshan's pee out of a very different area. His shoe just filled with liquid. was weird was weird. What's the color of your shirt a little fucking wet?
00:45:07
Speaker
This is when the stunning Jennifer Beals shows back up. and she's trying to talk him down. look he starts out. Ray glad. Yeah. She's buttering him up. You're you were feared by everybody revered by more, you know, fucking thousands used to come and chant for you.
00:45:26
Speaker
But you're better than that now. We're not that guy anymore. Now we're cool. Also, you've run up quite a bar tab, by the way. Yeah, because she can see it's not working. And she's like, I'll waive your bar tab if you don't kill everyone in this room.
00:45:43
Speaker
And he just looks at her, looks at the Trandoshan, and just rips this dude's fucking arm off. Just pops down a bunch of money and walks out. Like, nah, I'm going to.
00:45:54
Speaker
We heard Han Solo talk about it. Now we saw it. Yeah. A Wookie ripping a dude's arm off. Yeah, because we don't really see it in Solo. We see the aftermath where Chewie's just holding two arms.
00:46:06
Speaker
Yeah. But um I don't know if you know, and I'm sure that you don't because you've enjoyed having sex instead of reading Star Wars books. Fendoshans can regrow limbs. He's fine. I mean, he's not fine. It's going to hurt and it's going to be a while, but...
00:46:20
Speaker
Well, maybe that's why he did it. He's like, okay, I'm agreeing. He left half his bar tab on the table. yeah I'll tell you what. He's like, I'll cover my bar tab. No tip.
00:46:31
Speaker
You know why? That bartender's Trandoshan. Fuck him. I ripped off his arm. He's going to get it back. But I still got my satisfaction. Here's half what I owe you. Look, I know he can't play cards at your casino anymore, but you guys have a slot machine, right? you just need the one arm for that. And it's a good comedy line from Boba Fett here because he's like, it was worth a shot.
00:46:52
Speaker
And she just kind of shrugs. That's exactly the shot here. She's just like, well, it is worth a shot. Oh, my God. And we get confirmation that this little elephant dude is Max Rebo. Yeah. Because she says, hit it, Max.
00:47:09
Speaker
yeah And walks out. ah thought the same thing. I was like, if we, you know, people always wondered if he ever got off the ship right here. Yeah. So so we know that Max Rebo, Bib Fortuna, technically Boba Fett.
00:47:23
Speaker
And then, of course, the prisoners are the ones who live. Did anybody else make it off? ah Mara Jade, who's a name you won't know unless you read a bunch of the... That's Luke's sister? No, girlfriend.
00:47:37
Speaker
Girlfriend. Okay, I knew it was something do Luke and the legends. She was the Emperor's hand, so she was like a secret, secret apprentice, and her big thing was training to think to kill Luke. Oh, so she's like Starkiller? Yeah, but hot. Yeah.
00:47:51
Speaker
Yeah. And her and Luke end up brawling and then she turns and I believe they have babies and their babies have babies. Oh, so it's like the first scene or the early scene there in Expendables 4 where Jason Statham is fighting that chick and then they fuck.
00:48:08
Speaker
Expendables 4? Or 3? Which one was that? I think it's 4. Where they start out fighting and then they have... Yeah, whatever. It's the girl Megan Fox? Yeah, it might be Megan Fox. think it's 4. I haven't seen It is.
00:48:20
Speaker

00:48:33
Speaker
Does he? Not in this. That's dumb. Not Ness. He's one of the Trandoshans. The one that ah Black Chrysanthemum shot five times in the face or whatever happened. Oh, no, you killed 50 credits.
00:48:47
Speaker
What's going to happen now?
00:48:51
Speaker
So we have the meeting of the five families.
Crime Families Meeting and Rancor's Loyalty
00:48:53
Speaker
i know it's three, but I've gathered you all here today. Why is your mob boss Trump? ah I mean.
00:49:03
Speaker
Tomato, tomato. Tell me that. that ah The five families consist of Elon, Putin. ah Marlon Brando. Jesus Christ, this not my day. yeah Tell me that Marlon Brando wasn't just looking into the future and doing a Trump.
00:49:18
Speaker
That's true. Or Trump watched that movie. He's like, that's a great, that's a great voice. Great affectation. I'm going to go ahead and do that the rest of my life. Put cotton balls in my what?
00:49:32
Speaker
Put them in my ass? No, in your mouth, sir. I'm pretty sure you said in my ass. They're the greatest cotton balls. Some wonderful cotton balls on both sides of my body.
00:49:43
Speaker
But some both ends anyway, he has the meeting of the families. He's like, dude, we have a mutually beneficial relationship. You know, like we'll team up against the Pikes or whatever. They have a lot of it's mostly the the dog man.
00:49:58
Speaker
ah Clatoonian. Yeah. Only reason I got that one, don't be too proud, is because Phil Lamar, as the last episode, also voices the Clatoonian boss in this episode. Okay.
00:50:10
Speaker
And i know he wasn't the Trandoshan, and he wasn't just making grumble noises like the Aqualish guy. ah Look at you, though. You're getting some fucking things down. i know you're going have to look up Aqualish.
00:50:22
Speaker
I'm not going lie, subtitles. But you pulled in another episode where I did the what's it called? And you're like Aqualish? Yeah, I know, but it's a day-to-day thing. hold it before it Well, not today. it's kind of It's kind of like when I'm at work and people come up to close their tabs and there are people who've been there every Friday for the last five years and all of a sudden I'm like, what was the name on the tab again?
00:50:43
Speaker
Yeah. Just so don't get offended. Understand our brains are fucking fried. Yeah. Look, drank a lot yesterday. drank a lot today. going to drink a lot tomorrow.
00:50:54
Speaker
I think you just drank a lot, dude. No. But one of one of the things he says first is like, what's to stop us from killing you and just taking what we want? And this is cool. that's That's a great part because he says that and the rancor is just like, fuck you. wapa Like fucking shoves his giant nails through the grate. Like, you're going to what to my papa?
00:51:17
Speaker
What are you going to do daddy? He brings me treats num nums, gives me belly rubs. Anytime that I stretch, he tells me what a good stretch. What a big stretch. Dude, I would have a rancor all day. Dude, that's fucked up because do that shit to my dog. I get i get home and she's like stretching and I'm like, that's such a good girl. Oh, it's illegal not to.
00:51:37
Speaker
like ah Nobody tells me that when I get out of bed and I'm trying to make my back stop cramping. That's because your stretches aren't good. david You make noises. i mean, she does too. She's like...
00:51:49
Speaker
Cute noises. Yeah, that's fair. Might have to say good stretch. If you don't say good stretch or good girl or big stretch, any of those combinations, the government can come take your dog or cat away.
00:52:01
Speaker
Nobody ever tells me when I do a good poop either. You don't make good poops. Not since I started drinking whiskey.
00:52:12
Speaker
Surviving a diet of red meat and Miller High Life.
00:52:17
Speaker
I've had a solid shit in years.
00:52:22
Speaker
um But then the next thing is the guy's like, well, why should we spill blood for a rival rivalry between you and the pikes? Like we're making money either way. Okay. You know what? You're right. I'll take care of it.
00:52:33
Speaker
Just don't team up with them when they come for, when they come to ask you just, just stay out of it is all you can do. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, don't get involved and you can keep all your shit. and i'll All the stuff I just said, still active if you don't fuck with me. All I'll drink to that.
00:52:50
Speaker
And they do all agree because and he says it as they're leaving because Fennec Shand is like, do you trust them? And he's like, I trust that they're going to work in their own self-interest, which would be. And what I'm giving them is better than the fucking cartel.
00:53:03
Speaker
Well, and they're they're not stupid enough to not realize that the Pikes are going to take their shit eventually, too. Yeah. It's just right now that they're not threatening them. So they're not going to worry think wrong. I think they end up turning.
00:53:16
Speaker
Oh, I'm sure they do. I don't remember, but pretty how how else do you have a conclusion of a television show? Just turn off the camera. Oh, yeah.
00:53:28
Speaker
Oh, like Sopranos. Yeah. Just turn off the camera. Just stop. ah But she's like, it's going to cost a lot of money to get the muscle we need. And he's like, oh, I have or she says it's going to cost a lot of money for this war. And he's like, I have credits. It's the muscle I'm short on. Dude, she says it like it's a reveal. She's like, do you know that with credits you can get muscle?
00:53:50
Speaker
Well, the only reason that line is there is for the musical cue, right? Yeah. She's like, you know, with enough credits, you can buy a muscle if you know where to look.
00:54:01
Speaker
Let's go check with Mando. Yep. He's about to be flying here anyway. So you know what that means, guys? That means it's the end of this episode. But next episode, we'll be talking Chapter 5, The Return of the Mandalorians.
00:54:18
Speaker
woo I usually save that for the end, but it just fit in. So your final thoughts about this one? I mean, better than episode three, right? Definitely better. um I didn't like the Disney-ish silliness of it, but I get it because they're going for mass appeal. It's not it's not the Boba Fett show I wanted, per se, but it's what I got, and I'm going to enjoy what I can from it.
00:54:40
Speaker
Just because I criticize things and and dislike parts of it doesn't mean I don't love it. Have you ever dated? Have you know have've ever been in a relationship? You're not going to love everything. You've got to have criticisms. so yeah rough There's rough spots, and that's fine to...
00:54:54
Speaker
It's what really pisses me off about the internet people. We talk about all the time. It's like, you know, Star Wars, nobody hates Star Wars like a Star Wars fan. nobody And it's like, just, just, you can dislike things and still enjoy the franchise.
Fan Criticism and Fandom Comparisons
00:55:08
Speaker
And this is one of those things. Like there are moments throughout the series to enjoy. There are moments that are stupid and cringeworthy there. And and I've said it in the last two episodes, things that are, I think, good ideas that are very poorly executed.
00:55:24
Speaker
The mods are good. I think the mods are a good idea. It's just it's all it's about the execution, but you can.
00:55:33
Speaker
you can still enjoy the rest of the stuff around it. There's still good stuff to be had here. There's still fleshing out the universe. They're still telling a story. And some people just don't want to flesh out the universe and that's fine too, but that's not what star Wars is.
00:55:46
Speaker
Like I don't need every movie that I love to have prequels and sequels and TV series that explain all the stuff about it. I mean, I lived for a large chunk of my life, not most anymore, but a large chunk of my life with nothing more than,
00:56:02
Speaker
the first three star Wars movies. Absolutely. I didn't, I never read a book. I never watched a cartoon. I never saw any of the holiday special, which doesn't really flesh anything out. got into the books later in life, like maybe, well, like high school or junior high, but yeah, but still, still like right before the, the prequels and stuff. So it's like, but it's like you, you spent a large chunk of life just having those three movies and that was fine, but they decided this is a world they're going to flesh out.
00:56:29
Speaker
And I can't complain too much about getting more flesh. And maybe speaking of more flesh. Oh, can't complain. Maybe star Wars is a fucking unique beast too. Cause it's been going so long and there's so many offshoots, but just maybe not every property is for you.
00:56:46
Speaker
yeah You know, it's very much like we talked about, um, the Ms. Marvel show. they didn't make that for me. they didn't make that for a fucking 40, 40 something year old male. Forgot my age real quick.
00:56:58
Speaker
Um, you know, if I was in my fucking teens or, or whatever, I'd give it a fucking watch and then watch it with that kind of fucking eye. That's maybe Boba Fett supposed to be a family show for the most part.
00:57:12
Speaker
Except for Jennifer and her Beals. Well, yeah, if I'm a 17-year-old girl who's into comic books, Ms. Marvel's for me. Yeah. As a 40-year-old man, it's not. So instead of me complaining about Ms. Marvel's and being like, oh, that was a trash show, I just didn't i just didn't really... review I'm not going to review it.
00:57:30
Speaker
The problem is, and I don't remember if it was this episode or the last one, because again, we recorded them together, we talked about budgets, it's like, The problem is they need everyone to love it because they're spending so much fucking money. It's like, well, stop spending so much money. I don't know what to tell you. like yeah Go for a smaller, more um loyal audience.
00:57:49
Speaker
The whole idea of computer stuff was that it was supposed to be cheaper, but then you tried to make it more and more and more real. And you had to hire 10,000 people to do every scene and it gets too expensive. And then you don't make any money because You want to make money? You spent, you spent, let's, let's say you spent $200 million dollars and you only made a hundred million.
00:58:09
Speaker
A hundred million dollars is a lot of money. want to make that money back? Merchandise Jennifer Beals action figures Jennifer Beals cardboard cutouts Jennifer Beals real dolls Jennifer I mean for posable wink for posable photo ops only Derek yeah I'm sorry guys I'm sorry I'm being disgusting I want to respect the woman but she's gorgeous she's gorgeous no and I'm being I'm being jokingly sleazy Like you want Disney to make their money back, dude. Give us fucking this, this as much as you can, as many different things as you can with this but character on it.
00:58:45
Speaker
And that's the thing though, is just anything that's associated with the book of Boba Fett, people just like, eh, fuck it. Who cares? I mean, we talked about when we did our live, we talked about, we did our live stream of, of, uh, the Mandalorian and Grogu, which by the way is now available on everywhere that we are available, you know, so you can get anywhere you can find podcasts. Yeah.
00:59:05
Speaker
Yeah. But we talked about there, the moment that trailer came out, every comment was just like, trash. It's like, it's a teaser trailer. How could you possibly judge it?
00:59:15
Speaker
Yeah. People have this, it's' it's I think it's a false sense of ownership because it's not your Star Wars. And when it is your Star Wars, we get episode nine. If you want it to be your Star Wars, change your name to Timothy Zahn and write some fucking books.
00:59:28
Speaker
Yeah, there you go. Go create your own Star Wars. I put it in my notebook. Yeah. But yes, that is it for this week. Next week, we will be talking about Chapter 5, The Return of the Mandalorian.
00:59:41
Speaker
So Mandalorian Season 2.5 starts next week. Much like the direct-to-video sequels of ah Lion King and Cinderella and all that stuff that we talked about with our friend Vern on Leprechaun 3.
