Spoilers The Mandalorian season 2 discussion

I mean...am I the only one that thinks this is exactly how Favreau came up with that name?

Honestly, it probably came from a typo of George and there it was. That's how I come up with most alien names for my writing.

You mean it's not because his sippy goblet isn't always full of rum and water?

I've made some epic typos in my time (like typed the completely the wrong word because that's how disconnected my brain gets from my fingers) but I don't think I've ever typoed a word in reverse...

Yeah...I've had some rough ones.

P.S. I know I brought this up already but the visual has been rattling around in my brain so I needed to illustrate it.

Maybe something like this?

GEORGE LUCAS
G ORG   U
G ROG   U

or talking outloud
"George Lucas"
"George Lu"
"Georglu"
"Groglu"
"Grogu!"

 

[General_Phoenix]

Wonder if Mando has Katarn on speed dial to help deal with those Dark Troopers?

 

[Saul]

especially if Boba spent most of the post-Sarlacc period on foot trying to eke out a living trading and/or hunting and scavenging.

But how did he get Slave 1 then? Did he only find it recently also?

Boba takes some of their robes, weapons and a Bantha and makes for wherever the hell Slave One is parked.

Surely a ship like that would be stolen pretty quickly once they hear Boba is gone. Unless it was hidden. But would Boba really have spent all those years hanging around there? He must have been roaming around space, doing a few odd jobs.

Surely a ship like that would be boobytrapped and weaponised to hell hand back. Anyone trying to break in is likely to be a rapidly cooling pile of ash before they could even get the airlock open.
And who says he's been on Tatooine this whole time?

 

[cooleddie74]

It's Star Wars. A lot doesn't always make sense.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

That's what took him so long to get the armor, first he had to scour Tatooine for the keys.

Since we have no idea where he was found that might very well be. I don't know if there is official distance to the Pit of Carkoon, where the Sarlacc was or where Boba was taken afterwards. It's not like he just woke up, grabbed his stuff and ran back to his car like he was late for work.

Or it just came from the mind of a 5-year-old child.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

He did work for Vader some in the comics set between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back. In the first story arc, which crosses over between the core Star Wars series and the first Darth Vader series, Vader hires him to find the pilot who destroyed the Death Star.
StarWars.com posted their Mando Download for the last episode after it aired, it includes a Boba Fett poster, screen caps, and the concept art show at the end of the episode. I noticed the concept art includes the inside of Slave One, I wonder if there was originally a scene in the ship that was either cut or never filmed.

I like the concept art of the Razor Crest. No way should the entire ship have been vaporized like it was. There should have been some larger parts, like the engines, left.

 

[UssGlenn]

The only other explanation is whoever found him, took the armor and sold it while he was unconscious, and of course he found out the armor was no longer around after he got out of whatever med bay or hospital he recovered in.

I think it's a safe bet that the general sequence of events goeth thusly: -

1. Sail Barge explodes.
2. Sarlacc gets a throat full of burning jagged shrapnel.
3. Boba claws/cuts/grapples/jetpacks his way though the stomach and out of the wound before passing out on the sand.
4. Sandcrawler shows up to pick over the scrap.
5. Jawas strip Fetts armour off his unconscious body, leaves him for dead.
6. After a sandstorm, sand people show up to pick over what the Jawas didn't already take, or just to marvel at a slain sarlacc.
7. Tuskens get murdered to death by what they thought was a dead body when they try to salvage it's "water" (fremen style.)
8. Boba takes some of their robes, weapons and a Bantha and makes for wherever the hell Slave One is parked.

I was thinking it could also parallel what happened to Cobb Vanth. The Jawas don't leave him for dead, they nurse him back to health, but they take the Armor as payment. Then before Boba can get the funds together to buy it back off them, Cobb Vanth does and disappears off to a town that isn't on the map.

As "Honorable" as this latest episode makes him appear; I don't think a lack of funds would prevent Boba Fett from reclaiming his armor. At best he'd reclaim it physically, then go out on a couple of jobs and come back and repay the jawas who saved him.

 

[JD]

There was a scene inside the ship; we saw Boba piloting it.

Oh, OK. I guess I forgot about that.

 

[cooleddie74]

And his control panel and readouts matched the ones we saw in AOTC.

 

[JD]

StarWars.com has posted a new interview with Temuera Morrison about him playing Boba Fett.

It got hit by capital ship grade turbolasers while it was stationary a d its shields were down.

 

[Reverend]

Also, the engines are the least likely components to survive an explosion given engines tend to contain high energy volatiles (i.e.: fuel) Besides, given the size of the ship and the close proximity between the engines, the fuel tanks, the weapons and the reactor; that's a lot of very explosive components. So yeah, not much is going to survive if they ship takes a direct hit from a turbo laser while the shields are down.
