Boba Fett is dead: how Disney+ ruined Star Wars’ coolest character - "The Book of Boba Fett has resurrected the badass bounty hunter, only to destroy everything that once made him so great. It’s a fate worse than being eaten alive... In The Book of Boba Fett, the once-menacing freelancer has become a softie with a heart of gold. He has relinquished his title as a bounty hunter, become so curiously forgiving that he actually set free a Wookiee assassin just moments after it tried to murder him in his sleep, stroked a rancor behind its ear as if it were his oversized house cat and called a Tusken raider “mate”. It all started during an episode of The Mandalorian, in which Boba was properly reintroduced to audiences, where he spoke of his fear and disapproval of the Empire – one of his former and frequent clients. Within minutes, he was fighting for the light side for the very first time, having inexplicably been repositioned as a “good guy”. Or a guy with a moral compass, at least. Whatever he is now, he’s unrecognisable from the character that once fascinated Star Wars fans.  This is the same Boba who previously had no problem working for notorious choker Darth Vader and notorious chokee Jabba the Hutt."

The Book Of Boba Fett Represents The Best (And The Worst) Of Modern Star Wars - "The Fett of old is an individualistic, ruthless bounty hunter. While it's exciting to see him take center stage, it's disappointing that Disney is watering him down and turning him into a good-hearted freedom fighter instead of a morally gray cynic. The series also too often makes its reliance on existing iconography and characters apparent. Its re-vamp of the Tusken Raiders is a refreshing change of pace. Yet, introducing more Hutt characters, a Rancor, and a Wookie bounty hunter all feels overdone and lazy. Just like how the Star Wars sequel trilogy re-hashed popular elements from the original three films, The Book of Boba Fett continues to milk every familiar piece of Tatooine's iconography instead of introducing new characters and places.  When the series does add something new, its effectiveness is questionable. The most jarring new element is the biker gang and their multicolored speeder scooters, which are both laughable and not at all intimidating. This problem stems from the use of iconography that is too rooted in the real world, something Episode VIII: The Last Jedi also implemented in its infamous Canto Bight scene."

The Book Of Boba Fett's Scooter Chase Is The Worst Star Wars Has Been Since The Prequels - "In a somewhat on-the-nose reference to the vintage Vespas and Lambrettas favoured by the British mods of the 1960s, Mos Espa's Mods ride around on polished, dazzlingly colourful hover-scooters. They're even covered in mirrors, in the same way mods in the '60s would decorate their scooters with mirrors, badges, lights, spinners, and other chrome-plated embellishments to help them stand out from the crowd. It probably sounded better in the concept artists' heads. Harking back to Earth's past is nothing new in Star Wars, of course—whether it's Vader's samurai-inspired armour, Dexter Jettster's 1950s diner, or the fact the films are stuffed with references to George Lucas' love of California hot rod culture. Sometimes it definitely works. Vader's robes evoking a feudal Japanese lord is a nice piece of design. But in the case of that kitschy space diner, and The Book of Boba Fett's scooter-riding Mods, it just doesn't fit. In fact, all it does is pull me out of the illusion that this is a galaxy far, far away. The Mods themselves look like characters from a low budget movie adaptation of a YA novel, with some conspicuously plastic-looking robot parts glued to their faces. Also, for a scrappy, impoverished street gang forced to steal water simply to survive, they sure look well turned out—and seemingly have enough spare money to keep their scooters pristine, polished, and in perfect working order. Everything just feels off with them. From the moment they first appeared on screen I was like, nah. You've lost me here, Favreau. Anyway, whatever your opinion of the Mods, and whether you think they're a good fit for Star Wars or not, I think both sides of the debate can agree that the chase towards the end of the episode is awful. As the mayor of Mos Espa's cowardly majordomo flees in a speeder, the Mods spring to action, jumping on their scooters and chasing after him—at about five miles per hour. It's one of the most languid, low energy chase scenes I've seen... when Drash skims across a rooftop and lands on the fleeing majordomo's car, it's all floaty and weird—like a video game with poorly implemented physics. What should have been a thrilling ending left me wondering if I should even watch the next episode."
Worst since the sequels, rather

Has anyone noticed that Boba Fett is losing more and more armor pieces? And why is it like this? : StarWars

Boba Fett Episode 6 Review: From the Desert Comes a Stranger (or Two) - "there’s a curious lack of stakes to The Book of Boba Fett. Bane shoots Vanth in the shoulder, but the scene makes it clear that the wound is not fatal. Instead, Bane brutally and repeatedly shoots Vanth’s deputy dead, killing a minor character who lacks Vanth’s popularity and Olyphant’s star power. The climax then tries to escalate the stakes when the Pykes bomb the bar owned by Garsa Fwip (Jennifer Beals), but it all feels curiously passive.  Then again, this is how stakes work in The Book of Boba Fett. The show will eagerly kill off entire tribes or bars full of anonymous characters in the hopes of provoking an audience reaction, but it hesitates to kill off any individual character who might be marketable outside of the show itself. It is deeply frustrating and adds to the sense that The Book of Boba Fett is a show about watching its creators play with action figures while afraid of scuffing the paint work.   This is obvious in how the episode treats Luke Skywalker. Vanth was an actual character who was being used in service of the story being told and who was played by an actual performer. In contrast, Luke really does feel more like a prop. He is, in a very literal way, a living special effect more than an actual character. There is something depressingly mundane in how “From the Desert Comes a Stranger” treats Luke, while also allowing him to completely suck the air out of the episode around him... At one point, Luke shares a memory with Grogu, “I want to tell you about someone you remind me of a great deal.” “Yoda’s Theme” helpfully swells in the background, to stir the audience’s memory. “Do you remember back home?” Luke asks Grogu. “Would you like to remember? Let me help you remember.” He may as well be talking directly to the audience at home. It’s about evoking a half-forgotten memory... While the episode works hard to make sure that Luke is always in motion, the narrative itself seems almost afraid to actually do anything more than gaze at him in silent appreciation.   After all, “From the Desert Comes a Stranger” brings together Luke and Ahsoka... this shared link between the two characters is reduced to a single line of dialogue, with Ahsoka noting that Luke is “so much like (his) father” before she presumably hops in her ship and flies off to launch her own Star Wars spin-off.  In this way, “From the Desert Comes a Stranger” completes a process that really began with Solo: A Star Wars Story. It turns Star Wars into something mundane and generic. Even the appearance of the franchise’s original protagonist is no longer an event, but instead business as usual. There’s a creeping sense that The Book of Boba Fett isn’t really a story, but instead a television series-shaped holding repository for Star Wars content.   There is some small irony here. Even though Boba Fett only appears in a single scene, which is still more than he appeared in the episode immediately prior, “From the Desert Comes a Stranger” offers the most nuanced take on the bounty hunter of this self-titled series to date. Confronting Vanth, and trying to convince the Marshal to stand down, Cad Bane warns the law man, “Boba Fett is a cold-blooded killer who worked with the Empire.”  There is something compelling in that summary of Boba Fett, suggesting the shadows that haunt a character desperately seeking redemption. Unfortunately, a throwaway line from a guest character hints at a far more interesting show than The Book of Boba Fett has turned out to be."

Attack Of The Clones Has The Best Ending In Star Wars - "Attack of the Clones' Ending Reveals The Sith Have Already Won...
When viewers first heard mention of Obi-Wan Kenobi's heroism during the Clone Wars in the first Star Wars, they assumed they would tell a story of triumph - but this ending recasts them as a tragedy... "The shroud of the dark side has fallen," Master Yoda observes as he looks out at a sky colored the hue of Sith red. "Begun, the Clone War has." This ominous comment was, in part, explained by Charles Soule's novel Light of the Jedi; although set during a different era, it revealed a Jedi loses their ability to draw upon the Force when they are surrounded by pain, anguish, and suffering. This is why the Jedi were losing the ability to draw upon the Force, and would continue to do so as the Clone Wars raged across the galaxy. Their vision was becoming impaired by the dark side, and they would not see Palpatine's inevitable betrayal coming until it was too late... The final scene in Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones is the marriage of Anakin and Padmé. At first glance there seems to be a strange discontinuity to this, for it feels an optimistic moment; but in truth, this is, as noted, the entire galaxy's shatterpoint. Attack of the Clones confirmed it is possible to leave the Jedi - Count Dooku himself was one of the Lost Twenty - and yet Anakin has not chosen to do so. Instead, he will live a life of hypocrisy, tied by two competing attachments; to Padmé, and to the Jedi. Anakin's marriage to Padmé will leave him vulnerable to the manipulation of the Sith, ultimately leading to his transformation into Darth Vader. So this is how the light dies; with a kiss. George Lucas played to his strengths with the last four scenes in Attack of the Clones' ending. He is no master at dialogue, but thankfully the film's ending doesn't involve too many conversations. Instead, the focus lies on stunning imagery, with every aspect of the various scenes working together to sum up the entire Clone Wars in a matter of moments. It's storytelling at its best, and Lucas is to be respected for pulling it off so well."

20 years ago, the most underrated Star Wars movie changed canon forever - "If there’s one aspect of Attack of the Clones that was then — and still is — consistently lambasted, it’s how Padmé and Anakin’s romance lacks realism, or at the very least, chemistry. Anakin admits to murdering a bunch of Tusken Raiders, and Padmé later says she “truly, deeply” loves him. Anakin’s infamous remark about how he hates sand also comes from this movie, as do a few on-the-nose clunkers, like “I wish I could just wish my feelings away.”  However! George Lucas didn’t do this by accident. In the 2020 book The Star Wars Archives: 1999-2005, Lucas makes it clear he knew exactly what he was doing with the dialogue in Attack of the Clones. Behold, the maker in his own words: “Let’s face it, their dialgoue in that scene [by the fireplace] is pretty corny. It is presented very honestly, it isn’t tongue in cheek at all and it’s played to the hilt. But it is consistent, no only with the rest of the movie, but with the overall Star Wars style. Most people don’t understand the style of Star Wars. They don’t get that there is an underlying motif that is very much like a 1930s Western or Saturday matinee serial. It’s in the more romantic period of making movies and adventure films. And this film is even more of a melodrama than the others.”"
Plus you wouldn't expect two people with no dating experience removed from real life to be good at sweet talk

The Clone Wars: The Jedi Council's Most Boneheaded Decisions - "While Order 66 would have been a contrived plan to foresee, the fact that the Jedi knew about Dooku's involvement and still went on without investigating further is too egregious an error to ignore"

Lucasfilm Knowing Rise of Skywalker Was a Disaster Can Improve Star Wars - "In a new Vanity Fair article detailing Lucasfilm's upcoming plans for television projects on Disney+, it is outright stated that the reason Lucasfilm put all film projects on "hiatus" months before The Rise of Skywalker's release was that it was quickly realizing what a disaster it had on its hands.
Weird how they put the projects on hiatus before TROS came out. Almost as if they knew TLJ was the true disaster

What Does George Lucas Think of the Star Wars Sequels? - "While the initial reception for The Force Awakens was generally positive, Lucas felt differently. "They wanted to do a retro movie," he told Charlie Rose in a video interview for PBS. "I don't like that. Every movie, I worked very hard to make them different... I made them completely different — different planets, different spaceships to make it new." This was further confirmed by Bob Iger in his memoir The Ride of a Lifetime, in which the former Disney CEO elaborated on Lucas' disappointment with the film. After watching an early cut of the movie, Lucas had expressed to him that "there's nothing new" and that "there weren’t enough visual or technical leaps forward."... According to Ian McDiarmid, Lucas told him the Emperor was always meant to stay "absolutely dead" after the end of Return of the Jedi... Recent shows like The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett have become huge hits for Disney, and Lucas himself has reportedly enjoyed the former. He even showed up on the set of Season 2, as seen on the behind-the-scenes featurette Disney Gallery, holding Grogu and sharing a few laughs with the crew"

Why the Term 'JEDI' Is Problematic for Describing Programs That Promote Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion - Scientific American - "JEDI stands for “justice, equity, diversity and inclusion.”... Through its connections to Star Wars, the name JEDI can inadvertently associate our justice work with stories and stereotypes that are a galaxy far, far away from the values of justice, equity, diversity and inclusion. The question we must ask is whether the conversations started by these connections are the ones that we want to have... The Jedi are inappropriate mascots for social justice. Although they’re ostensibly heroes within the Star Wars universe, the Jedi are inappropriate symbols for justice work. They are a religious order of intergalactic police-monks, prone to (white) saviorism and toxically masculine approaches to conflict resolution (violent duels with phallic lightsabers, gaslighting by means of “Jedi mind tricks,” etc.). The Jedi are also an exclusionary cult, membership to which is partly predicated on the possession of heightened psychic and physical abilities (or “Force-sensitivity”). Strikingly, Force-wielding talents are narratively explained in Star Wars not merely in spiritual terms but also in ableist and eugenic ones...   Star Wars has a problematic cultural legacy. The space opera franchise has been critiqued for trafficking in injustices such as sexism, racism and ableism...   JEDI connects justice initiatives to corporate capital... Aligning justice work with Star Wars risks threatening inclusion and sense of belonging. While an overarching goal of JEDI initiatives is to promote inclusion, the term JEDI might make people feel excluded. Star Wars is popular but divisive... The abbreviation JEDI can distract from justice, equity, diversity and inclusion"
Wokeness ruins everything after all

Lucasfilm prepped Star Wars actress against 'racist' blowback for Obi-Wan role - "Moses Ingram is slated to play a Sith inquisitor character named Reva, who is on the hunt for Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi... In order to comply with Chinese authorities, Disney shrunk Boyega’s character on the "The Force Awakens" poster in December 2015."
Before release, they thought it was going to fail

After Endorsing Calling All White People Racist, Lucasfilm Prepped Actress Moses Ingram Against "Racist Backlash" To Her Obi-Wan Kenobi Character - "Ingram’s revelation that Lucasfilm believes their Star Wars fanbase is racist comes a little over a year after the company endorsed supporting calling all white people racist.  If you recall back in January 2021, Bounding Into Comics reported that newly hired Star Wars: The High Republic host Krystina Arielle had previously claimed that white people are racist.  In March 2020, Arielle tweeted “White people: f***ing stop it. Your racism won’t save you. Your ignorance is not an excuse.” In May 2020 she wrote, “White conservatives please stop invoking racism like you give a s***. You don’t. You just want to be able to say ‘what about’ when someone calls out 45 and his blatant racism.” In June 2020, she also wrote, “Just a reminder that White Women are just as complicit in the upholding and enforcing White Supremacy.” The official Star Wars account came out in support of Arielle, writing, “Our Star Wars community is one of hope and inclusivity. We do not stand for bullying and racism. We support Krystina Arielle.”... In the interview, the outlet cites the often repeated lies that John Boyega and Kelly Marie Tran received racist fan harassment following their respective roles in the recent Disney’s Star Wars trilogy.  For years, the media blamed racist backlash for Kelly Marie Tran temporarily leaving social media despite the fact that the actress never claimed that the supposed online harassment was the reason she left social media in the first place.  Instead, they took comments she made in a letter to the New York Times about being a woman and a person of color and conflated that with the negative reaction fans had to the film The Last Jedi in order to discredit criticism of the movie.   John Boyega defended Kelly publicly but was never a target of negative backlash himself, as a matter of fact, people defended Boyega when he spoke out against the Disney owned property who he accused of sidelining black characters in the film and doing things such as removing his character from Chinese promotions of the movie in order to please the market and earn more money...   It’s also possible this could be all part of Lucasfilm’s tired marketing strategy, one they allegedly used to promote Star Wars: The High Republic.  Novelist and comic book creator Jon Del Arroz posited that calling Star Wars fans racist, as they did when fans were justifiably upset with Arielle’s comments, was actually part of their marketing strategy. Del Arroz explained, “This is just a marketing gimmick for Disney at the end of the day because there is no talk about The High Republic that is positive. Nobody is interested in the comics. Nobody is interested in the books. Nobody is interested in the show discussing the comics and books.”... Aside from claiming that Lucasfilm believes their own fans are racist, Ingram also explained how the Disney+ series will add some much-needed “diversity” to the world of Star Wars"
Calling out anti-white racism is bullying and racism

‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’ Episode 3 Recap: Path of the Jedi - "Leia (Vivien Lyra Blair) asks, “Are we almost there?” He says he doesn’t know. She asks if he could use the Force to make them go faster. He says that’s not how the Force works. When she asks what it is like (and it’s very clear that she has a deep connection to the Force already, whether she knows it or), he asks if she’s ever been afraid of the dark. She says yes. He says the Force is like turning on a light. It makes you feel safe. What makes this whole exchange very funny is that it’s an old, grumpy Jedi, refusing to teach a young female Force-user how to properly weird her power after his earlier protégé goes bad. It’s almost exactly the set-up of “The Last Jedi,” a “Star Wars” movie that caused such outrage that angry nerds are still posting about it on the Internet to this day. Apparently, this scenario is okay for Obi-Wan but not for Luke. Got it."
This was very lame. In his zeal to get in a cheap jibe (obviously he's still bitter that fans didn't like a bad film even after so many years) he makes a nonsensical claim

Meme - "Luke during this time was an urban legend to the Empire. Remember by the end of Return of the Jedi, he was responsible for the destruction of two death stars. He was in a room with Darth Vader and the emperor. From the perspective of any witnesses, the emperor never made it out and he walked out with Darth Vader's dying defeated body. He is the only known living jedi left. This is what is going through Moff Gideon's head as he watches in terror as a cloaked force weilding figure with a light saber easily dismantles his army of Dark Troopers because he knows it could only be him."

Make 'Star Wars' Weird Again - "There is a moment near the start of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace that lets you in on what type of film you’re about to watch. In it, Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn (an anaesthetised Liam Neeson) and his padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi (a spritely Ewan McGregor) are hiding from the Trade Federation, looking on as their droid army prepares to launch an invasion of the peaceful planet, Naboo. Obi-Wan turns to Qui-Gon with a twinkle in his eye and says: “You were right about one thing, master… the negotiations were short.” As far as quips go, it's an absolute groaner: tonally incongruous with what’s meant to be a terrifying discovery, and delivered in a way that bounces off Neeson’s dead eyes with a muffled splat. It is a moment that’s as odd as a nest of Gundarks is tense, one of many in a trilogy that’s packed full of dialogue, delivery and decisions that leave you thinking why on Endor you’d choose to do this like that.   It is everything that Star Wars should be, but won't be again: weird.   Where George Lucas’s films feel like a only child entertainingly introducing you to their favourite action figures one by one before putting them in the microwave, the Disney films and series – including Solo, The Mandalorian, The Book of Boba Fett and Obi-Wan Kenobi on Disney+ – feel like a 36-year-old ad exec bragging about how they’ve diversified their portfolio by investing in Funko Pops. Say what you want about the oft-maligned prequel trilogy, they are at least memorable. Lucas’s habit of spilling his unconscious neuroses into Star Wars’ every nook, cranny and gynocentric Sarlacc pit really bubbled over in the prequels, where he had had more time and control of this thing that had expanded beyond the bounds of franchise and out into the twinkling imaginations of two generations of fans and a forever altered cultural zeitgeist. Free of the cowardly bet-hedging of big studios, Lucas was able to make films that were resolutely his, and he has always been nothing if not a very weird little guy."
Maybe this is why the prequels are so memable
