Book of Boba Fett Episode 6 Reaction

Here I was, getting ready for bed, wondering if any other fanfics have updated, and then I remembered—it’s Wednesday! No sleep for me haha

Spoilers (and a lot of all caps and keysmashing) under the cut

Oh no, we’re starting with the “no attachment” speech in the recap? I don’t like where that’s headed

Eeeeey! Cob Vanth!

He looks kinda… puny without Boba’s armor haha

Still a dead shot tho—nicely done

“Think it through.” I like that catch phrase—so long as we’re not gonna hear it every other minute :D

…whatcha gonna do with that spice, Vanth?

Good. Good man.

Artoo!

It ain’t a Star Wars show without an Artoo cameo

I’m so excited for this :D

Wish I knew what Artoo was saying on that walk over haha—I feel like he’s either just whistling along his way or dropping galactic secrets lore about Jedi or Mandalorians in a cheerful tone like nobody’s business

Por que? Artoo? Taking a nap there, buddy?

“Is anyone here? Anyone alive?” pffft now we’re asking the important questions XD

Grogu!

…I sense a lot of telepathy in this scene

Luke: *impressive Force demonstration on a few dozen frogs*

Grogu’s face: 8D SNACKS!! XD

“Would you like to remember?” Oofta, that’s a heavy question

GAH ORDER 66 FLASHBACK I WAS NOT PREPARED

Ooof

Big oof

Hah, poor Mando XD

GYEARDFADADFADGANSTHGAEARTN SO SHE DOES KNOW LUKE

“I’m an old friend of the family”

OUCH

That’s accurate, heartfelt, and painful all at the same time

Gah, her short lekku still bother me.

Oh so there is some kind of armor in that tiny little hanky? Okay XD

“If he sees you, it’ll only make things more difficult for him.”

Oh, and not seeing him but knowing he was there won’t?

I have some thoughts on Jedi and their no attachment business

UGH this just makes me sad

WHAT THE HECK—YOU DON’T LET THE KID SEE MANDO BUT YOU LET HIM WATCH MANDO FLY AWAY?? Are you trying to give him abandonment issues??

YOU SHOT THE BABY

With a training bolt, but still

“Trust your instincts.”

LET HIM GO, LUKE! LET HIM BE A BABY MANDO!

Gah, that better not be the last we see from them in forever.

Pfft, nice bumper decorations you got there, Jawas

“He’s new—still a bit jumpy—is that a Naboo star fighter?” XDDD

Does… anyone go to this bar besides Vanth?

“That big smile of yours lets you get away with anything.” XDDDD LOVE THAT

What’s this on the horizon?

Sandpeople?

It’s—

IT’S C A D B A N E

IN LIVE ACTION

THIS WON’T END WELL

Wait—wait—this is after the Return of the Jedi—

NO ONE KILLED HIM YET??

HOW??!! WHY?!?!

He’s gotta be ancient

And what the CRAP is he doing here??????

AERAEAHYKSAADFGDGKFHGDUKSYHA SO MANY QUESTIONS

AFGADGSHAekgefWR HIS VOICE IS DIFFERENT but I guess you can’t have everything

HE’S PALER THAN HE USED TO BE maybe he’s just old

Deputy dude, you gonna die

Eeeh, not sure how I feel about those teeth. Feel overdone to me. Like I can feel the actor struggling to talk around them... eh, guess it's whatever

“You shoulda never given up your armor.”

GAH THIS IS BAD

That deputy’s gonna die in three… two… one…

OH CRAP HE GOT VANTH FIRST

Little background voices: There’s something wrong with the Marshall!

NO KIDDING. I mean he was just, oh, I dunno, SHOT

BOOM

OH SNAP

Welp. Boba’s gonna have his hands full next episode

OH GOOD WE’RE BACK TO THE JEDI

Chainmail! Woo!

GAH! HE KEPT YODA’S LIGHTSABER

“But you may choose only one.”

WHHYYYYYYYY THO

Take the chainmail kid

Then come back for the saber when Luke sleeping. You’ve probably had more training than him anyway.

You can go with your family, but you’ll be giving in to your weakness, or you can stay and I’ll teach you to become a great Jedi

Wow look at that bias!

Jerk

“Which do you choose?”

It’s gonna be a cliffhanger.

Yup, cliffhanger

Okay, why the heck does Ahsoka have long lekku in concept art but not in the show

Also I’m still freaking out that CAD BANE is still alive. Like, he felt like a grumpy old man in the Clone Wars, let alone after the whole original trilogy

I know there was some unfinished Clone War episodes that had a Boba Fett vs. Cad Bane showdown where they both got headshots in and yet both survived.

Maybe Bane got wind that Boba resurfaced and dragged himself out of retirement to finish off that showdown. Feels like something he would do.

Oh plus we know there’s bad blood between him and Fennec.

Maybe Boba will finally actually kill him, unlike all the Jedi and Clones and Sith and I’m assuming other bounty hunters who have tried and failed.

#the book of boba fett spoilers #the book of boba fett #star wars #tbobf #tbobf spoilers #mathmusic talks #reactions #so much happened in this episode in the way of spoilers #I'm so glad I saw it before I had it spoiled for me haha #spoilers under the cut

How often do you eat your favorite food? Very seldom do I get to have burgers because the good ones are usually quite expensive and I don’t want to waste my parents’ allowance on selfish stuff like that; I’d say I have them once every couple of months. I get Yabu at least once a month though, that’s something I kinda make sure I’ve saved enough for.

Have you ever fallen asleep on public transport? (including planes): When we have family car trips that run through the night, I do sleep but only for a short while because I feel bad when we all fall asleep and my dad has no choice but to continue driving. I’ve only fallen asleep on a plane once and that was because we spent like seven or eight hours waiting at the airport with nothing to do, and for some reason that made me so tired.

What room of the house are you in right now? My room. My day hasn’t gone well and I haven’t had the energy to go downstairs.

What was the last tv show you watched? Descendants of the Sun.

Have you been using Apple Music? No thanks.

Do you pay rent for the place you live? How often? My parents don’t.

How do you feel at this particular moment? Anything on your mind? Exhausted, a little heavy, and resigned. Yes, but I’m taking this survey now precisely because I don’t want that stuff to occupy my mind too much.

Where was the last place you went on vacation/holiday to? Who’d you go with? Albay with my parents. We were there for three or four days, which I consider to be more of a vacation than the weekend trip we had in Tagaytay.

List all the colors you’re currently wearing. Brown, black, and scarlet.

What’s your favorite type of doughnut? I like smaller, local brands that make their doughnuts fresh, and may have gourmet selections as well. The only place I know that does this is Cello’s, near my school.

What do you usually eat for breakfast? I normally skip it but with my whole family home for quarantine, we’ve been having breakfast every single day since March. That said, we typically have steamed or fried rice, eggs, hotdogs, bacon, longganisa, and some kind of dried dish like danggit or tuyo.

Do you have any candles in your bedroom? Do you light them often? Nope, never invested on candles before.

Can you touch your toes without bending your knees? Yep. I used to be able to, then I wasn’t able to for a very long time, then after having my really rigorous PE class two semesters ago I was able to do it again.

When was the last time you went out for dinner? First Monday of March.

Have you seen all the Hunger Games films as of current? I’ve seen the first one because they aired it on TV a thousand times at one point in like, 2013. Never got to see the rest.

What was the last thing you said to someone else in person? “You here?” I was talking to Kimi in the dark.

Do you use Windows, Mac, Linux, or something else entirely? Mac.

How many times do you call someone on the phone a week? 2-3 times a week maybe? Gab and I don’t need to call each other everyday, and a fewer calls mean I’m more excited when one does happen haha.

Have you cooked anything today? What was it? Nope.

Do you have a lot of cousins? What are their names? First cousins would be Gage, Elijah, Cholo, Toffe, Bia, Lei, Kesler, AJ, Kent, Seth, and Sam. The second cousins that I know of are Ben, Nico, Selah, Luke, Maggie, Bree, Isabella, and Jethro – I have tons of family living in the US and those include second cousins I’ve never met, and I also have many other second cousins on my dad’s side that I was able to name none of here because we aren’t at all close with that side, and I’ve never had a relationship with those cousins. I only know a handful of third cousins, namely Nicole, Elliott, and Kristen. What does your shampoo smell like? Idk, it doesn’t have a distinct scent and is just one of the basic Dove shampoos.

What about the body wash or soap you’re using at the moment? The scent is called bourbon vanilla.

Have you ever had an exotic or unusual pet? Are horses unusual? My sister had a chick for a few days. They definitely are here, but I don’t know about other places.

Any movies you’ve seen recently that you’d recommend to me? Not a movie sorry, but I just watched Vice TV’s Dark Side of the Ring documentary on Owen Hart and it’s sooooooo fucking brilliant. Its production value is just astounding, and they did not fuck around with the sources they chose to speak in the piece. I recommend anybody – even if you’ve never watched or been interested in wrestling before – to go see it, because the storytelling is so great the outsider-est outsider would be able to understand and appreciate its narration, and see exactly how fucked-up the industry is.

Why did you last go see a doctor? Oh my god, this has been on every survey recently...eye appointment. At that time my left eye twitched and teared up whenever I wake up and when I’d head to bed, and in random times during the day. It’s gotten better during the quarantine, but I’ll still sometimes get the occasional attack.

Do you know how to play Minesweeper? Yes. I don’t have the patience for it though. < Ugh same. I’ve never won a game, and I just never had the appetite to keep trying lol

What was the last thing you bought online? The last time I answered this saying a Hydro Flask and a couple of necklaces, but now that I remember more clearly, Andrew and I did get Chinese food from online a few days before classes got suspended.

Where do you usually park your car? There’s some extra bare space beside our actual carport that’s super super tiny, but we found out my car could fit in so that’s where I park it so it could be in the shade. To this day I’m the only one who can effortlesly fit it in after doing it everyday for four years in college, as my parents are too scared hahaha.

Does your mail get delivered to your house or do you have to collect it? House. As far as I know, that’s how it works for the whole country.

Are you more logical or creative? Logical. My creativity is for sure in the negatives.

Do you cut tags out of clothing so they don’t itch and bother you? Only if it incredibly bothers me and if it’s not that big a brand. If it’s a big name, I’d rather suffer the itch.

What is your dream job? Do you think that’s attainable for you? The dream job is still to do PR for WWE, but I’ve been questioning that decision more and more lately because they’re turning out to be such a shit company and I don’t want to end up selling out and launching fake-ass cheery articles and campaigns to paint the company in a nicer light, despite the many shitstorms it is currently and has always been embroiled in. I do think it’s attainable, since it’s generally easier to get into WWE corporate than be in the branch that does events and gets to be on TV, but I’ll have to do a lot of thinking on this particular path.

When was the last time you looked at Facebook, Twitter or etc.? 30 minutes ago, maybe.

Have you ever been on a train? Where did you go? Just one. Jum and I went to the Senate for a journalism class. I would’ve driven but I hate driving in Manila.

I mostly see pro Luke comments. They like him, they wish he would stay and even support the idea of him and Vic. I'm anti all of that:) I wonder if he's considered likeable because he's automatically compared to his brother. Juxtaposed to his family, he's not bad. I stan The Luke Theory (TLT:p). Though, my concern is, lack of evidence that he did it and it may not help Robert in the long run.

Just to add to my last ask, you made a good point about how they diverted the audience’s attention from Luke to Aaron in their scene. He’s off the rails right now so Aaron is another person that makes Luke look reasonable and stable. He’s able to hide in plain sight because it’s so chaotic around him that you don’t pay attention to the one who isn’t really causing trouble.

Oh, how odd. I only see indifference here. But I genuinely think, as far as the narrative is concerned, he is supposed to be considered likeable. Or at least trustworthy, which is obviously key for Vic and this storyline. (Which would add that extra bit of juicy soapiness if they did go with the theory (TLT - in the same sentence as “stan”! It’s too much haha.) because he’s the only person in this storyline whose actions have never been questioned or in doubt. In terms of fiction and plot, he would be deemed the “reliable narrator” in this narrative, the one person whose judgement isn’t swayed by bias… And a lot of the greatest stories are the ones in which the reliable narrator turns out to never have been reliable at all.) But his trustworthiness isn't just because he isn’t his brother, but the way he’s acted towards Vic. And the fact that he believed her from the off.

I don’t really have a problem with Luke personally. I neither like nor dislike him. I’m not keen on the relationship with Vic angle obviously, because it’s just too convoluted. It’s so implausible as a reality, but Emmerdale sometimes do have the problem of falling into the trap of relying on the audience’s suspension of disbelief. They require us to remove the storyline from reality. I’m never a fan of fiction which asks me to suspend my disbelief, but it’s something that ED has leaned on at various points over the years. It isn’t anything new, and I guess it’s really just part of soap. The genre couldn’t really exist without it. I just think sometimes there could be better ways to make a plot point feel more natural, even if we still can’t believe it. For instance, I won’t be able to believe Vic having a relationship with Lee’s brother, but their attempts at making it feel more natural was them bonding before they knew who the other was. But all of that, to me, felt forced. Especially when, after the reveal, they added in those lines about “fate” etc. So in this scenario we’re suspending our disbelief at it, while it’s also failing to feel natural. Which makes it harder to suspend our disbelief. Naturally. Haha. (How many times can I repeat the same words in one paragraph? A lot apparently!)

But with regard to The Luke Theory, without even going into the portrayal of the character and what he’s actually done/said, it makes a lot of sense within the structure of the current narrative we’re getting. As you say, Luke is very much under the radar in all of this. The narrative is: “Poor Vic, she shouldn’t have to be dealing with this.” - “Obviously Wendy is upset, but can she really not see how upsetting her being in the village is?” - “Oh wow, Aaron really is starting to lose it.” So Luke, at this stage, is nothing more than a shrug. He’s not really doing anything to create an impact on the audience, or affect the direction of this storyline. Maybe that will come in the future. Or maybe he’s already affected the direction… And if he has, there may be a lack of evidence but it’s a soap, they’ll invent something haha. Or maybe they could just go on all the CCTV which showed he was always pretty much everywhere but the canteen..! (Except conveniently not around when Lee died… #NotTheorising #JustStatingFacts)

#the fictional village now Robertless #Luke the canteen dude who was never in the canteen #me: *not theorising* dammit Luke!#this is me holding back I swear haha #if we start to get some more concrete basis for TLT it may get a specific theory tag...#although your acronym just made me think of 'The Adam Theory' (pahaha what fun we had with that bit of nonsense bless)#and if we'd used an acronym for that it would have been TAT #hahahaha
