Tosche Station doesn't look like that on the outside. The buildings aren't the same.
The Book Of Boba Fett

I would have thought Fett would do something to cause the Sarlacc to regurgitate him a quarter mile or something.
Now I want a backstory for how that Imperial Stormtrooper ended up in the Sarlacc's stomach. Jabba was an even bigger badass than we thought if he just tossed the Emperor's troops into his favorite animals.
That was a quite a short episode. Are they all going to be this short or do the lengths vary?
Maybe he was one of the Stormtroopers looking for R2 and C3PO in ANH and took a wrong turn.
"Look, Sir...dro..."
"Bob?"
"Everyone quietly walk away from the edge of this pit."
"Bob?"
"Everyone quietly walk away from the edge of this pit."
Oh, I was assuming that was one of the several people who fell in during the ROTJ battle, but on reflection, I guess those were all Jabba's guards, not Stormtroopers.
Did we know before that Stormtrooper helmets had built-in air supplies? I guess it makes sense given the somewhat gas-maskish design.
He seemed pretty upright in there, maybe he couldn't take it anymore and jumped in.
Eek, this was bad. Worse than "The Mandalorian" at its worst. Such, such flat writing, it's astonishing. The pilot tells you absolutely zero of consequence that isn't just utterly useless "backstory." No characters of note, no conflicts, no goals, no stakes. Zero. If any other TV pilot was written this badly that didn't have the SW brand, it would get tossed in the bin by the first intern that read it.
I haven't watched the first episode yet. I've been taking a break from Disney stuff for a bit, so I didn't realize the show had started. I'm trying to avoid spoilers, and I generally try not to let reviews influence my opinions of a show, especially when I haven't watched it myself. But I've been coming across a number of review articles that are quite uncomplimentary. I hope it won't be too much of a letdown when I get around to watching.

This is why I don't read reviews.
That's how most of these shows have been. Varying lengths.
For a show like this, reviews are utterly pointless for me. I'm going to watch it no matter what, and I'd a million per cent rather go in blind and make my own mind up.
Same for something like the new Spider-Man movie. I don't understand why anyone would need a review for that. If you haven't made your mind up by now if you're a fan of Marvel movies or Spider-Man by now.. I don't know what else you'd need!
A very good first episode. My only issue is that it felt too short, but that just means that I want more of it. I liked seeing the brief flashbacks to his origins before going into the flashbacks to him escaping the sarlaac, which was also a cool scene. Besides the length I have nothing to complain about, I can't wait for the next episode.
Maybe he was huffing some stimulants like those WWIII soldiers from Encounter at Farpoint.
I'd assume that he was in there long enough for his air supply to run out (the scene began with him reviving from unconsciousness, so he'd been in there a while), whereas the Stormtrooper had died quickly enough to still have some air reserves.
It looked to me like they were submerged in the Sarlacc's digestive juices.
You'd probably need fresh, cool air if you were standing in a pool of hot, pungent digestive juices that must have been choking to the lungs. Taking hits off the Stormtrooper's air hose probably gave Boba the energy and focus to know where to aim his flamethrower gauntlet and escape.
I guess he's all out of love.
The shortest Mandalorian episode was 36 minutes, and it's longest was 55 minutes, so I have a feeling this will probably be similar.
I know I've seen some people complain about the episode lengths, but I don't mind. I'd rather see the episodes have different lengths, so they can just tell the story they want to tell in the time they need to tell it, rather than stretch it out or cut it short.
