Fans of the Star Wars saga know that there is always more to the story than what is shown on the big screen. Recently, a deleted scene from The Phantom Menace (1999) surfaced on YouTube, giving fans a chance to see an extended version of the epic duel between Darth Maul and Qui Gon Jinn. The video, titled “Extended Darth Maul Vs Qui Gon Jinn Fight Deleted Scene,” reveals that the original fight sequence was intended to be longer and more intense than what made it into the final cut. The scene not only adds to the tension but also provides a more plausible explanation for Qui Gon’s exhaustion upon returning to Padme’s ship. The Extended Fight: In the deleted scene, viewers witness an alternate take on the iconic confrontation between Sith Lord Darth Maul and Jedi Master Qui Gon Jinn. As Qui Gon jumps onto the ramp of Padme’s…

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi is considered one of the greatest science fiction films of all time, and it brought a satisfying conclusion to the original trilogy. The film is known for its epic space battles, stunning visual effects, and memorable characters.

This seemingly insignificant planet, once a thriving hub of trade and commerce, has been thrust into the spotlight due to its strategic importance and the fierce battles that have taken place there.

Relax. Boba will survive, and he will almost certainly get another season
I’ll be fair, I’ve had my criticisms of this show (see my profile for an earlier post of what I wanted). Not everything was going to be executed properly, just because, unlike the Mandalorian, Boba has a history with the fanbase – and so creative liberty is stifled a bit. But I’ve seen some crazy theories about how Disney’s ruining the character and such. That’s just not true. They’re setting Boba up to transition from being a lone wolf into a leader. Something like how the Mandalorian had to go from a lone wolf to a father figure. So a couple points: Boba isn’t going to die. His visions obviously mean something that’s been unanswered so far in the show. The show writers have them in there for a reason. I feel like once we know that, we’ll know a lot more about where this is going. But if legends…
Discussion: Boba Fett’s Memory in EP 4
There’s been a lot of complaining that our hero believed his armor was still in the sarlacc’s belly when we, the audience, saw very clearly in flashback that Boba escaped wearing his armor and was semi-conscious when the Jawas came to rob him. How can Boba not remember? He was awake! There’s no way to sugarcoat this: if you believe this is a matter of bad writing, you’re startlingly ignorant of reality and thus, the implied insult against the many victims of this kind of traumatic memory loss might be forgiven. Even if we haven’t experienced it directly, I suspect virtually all of us who live in countries where drinking is normal are familiar with people we’ve known blacking out memories from drinking too much. Boba endured a hell of a lot more than a few drinks too many. Car accidents and similar types of incidents that involve physical trauma…
Discussion: The Book of Boba Fett’s theme would be better with Mandalorian lyrics
Let me say first that I absolutely LOVE Ludwig Göransson’s work on the Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. He perfectly captures the tribal and dark undertones of the Mandalorian culture and knocks it out of the park with Boba Fett’s theme in the Mandalorian, his theme being a harsher and more ominous version of Mando’s more noble, heroic theme. It’s SO good and I wouldn’t change a thing about either theme. However…I feel like there was a missed opportunity with the Book of Boba Fett’s theme. Don’t get me wrong, the one we have now that plays over the title card and end credits is REALLY good. I love how it starts out really ominous before becoming more heroic before falling back into that initial ominousness to show how even though Boba isn’t a ruthless bounty hunter anymore and that he’s softer now, there’s still a reason why…
