There is a huge problem with this series for me. You can only watch it legally at the end of March if you live in Europe. -_-
Apple did a global launch, why cant Disney?

This season is 8 episodes right? Have they said anything about doing more seasons if this is well received? Or is this intended to be a one and done show?

I'd like to point out that Jon Favreau was the voice of Pre Vizsla (who was the leader of Death Watch)

He's also written every episode of this series. So i'm calling it now, this is going to be Death Watch propaganda.

DON'T FALL FOR IT PEOPLE. 😆

Debating whether or not to wake up early and watch this before work to avoid being spoiled throughout the day...

2 episodes of the Mandalorian and Jedi: Fallen Order dropping in the same week? It's a damn good time to be a Star Wars fan!

40 years of fans, countless books, comics, and now an entire tv show built entirely off the back of just looking so god damn cool. That's the boba fett legacy.

This has probably been asked a million times already but why isn't this a Boba Fett show and why isn't that IG-88? In my head I'm always gonna pretend it's them

Huh, I had no idea Favreau wrote most of the episodes. That's a pretty time-consuming task, you need 1000% investment, so I have even more high hopes for this series.

Great thread OP, very informative but to the point.

Lucasfilm/Disney has this complex around the new EU where nothing is allowed through about legacy character unless it's meticulously planned and picked over. That's why it's not Boba Fett and not IG-88

Apparently he's had them sitting in his desk for years pretty much ready to go

Basically, this is Jon's fanfic project with disney's blessing ;)

Nobody has seen a full episode yet. They showed thirty minutes of a few episodes stitched together to some outlets and fan sites a few weeks ago. Disney have said it's to stop the spread of spoilers.

Unless they're going to pull a "It actually is Boba after all!" twist then I don't see what kind of thing critics could possibly spoil about the first 2-3 episodes of a brand new series.

There is supposed to be a major spoiler in the first episode according to The New York Times. What counts as one of those these days is a different matter.

I have said, if it winds up being this, i think i might be done with the show before it even starts. It will prove to me they have no faith in telling an original story.

We've heard Boba Fett speak and he does not have Pedro Pascal's voice, either in the original edit or the Temuera Morrison re-dub.

Not that I am advocating for Boba Fett to return, I personally find him to be a bad character, but the voice being different means nothing. We literally have two completely different looking/sounding actors playing Han Solo.

Right but the whole thing about Boba Fett is that he's literally a clone of another guy and Pedro Pascal looks and sounds nothing like him. Not in an Alden Ehrenreich way, but like, not even the same ethnicity kind of way.
