It's also on the radio drama...the radio drama Biggs scenes are outstanding. Way better than this poorly acted cut. Mark Hamill's acting in the trilogy actually pales in comparison to his voice acting in the radio dramas. [Reply]
Tried to watch the first episode. Good start, promising, then went Xena Princess Warrior and I had to shut it off. That "fight" towards the end with the shielded "shock baton?" soldiers was horrible. Terrible choreography, slow, clumsy, cringe-fest. None of the actors looked even remotely capable of self defense, let alone combat ready. Luckily for the main characters, that included their attackers being sure to attack one at a time, even though their prey was surrounded. They made up for it by posturing and posing, I suppose?
Solid premise. Low budget. No training or prep work, so terrible production and direction. Silly kids show at best... do kids give af about Boba Fett?
Star Wars is dead. Has been for a long time. Let it rest in peace. Make the original theatrical release of the original three (ep 4-6) available on BluRay & digital please, so those of us who despise the wreckage that became this once proud franchise can have something nostalgic to enjoy. At least we have KOTOR and a couple of other excellent game titles to build upon the original lore. Lucas shit out three awful precursors and Disney obvious destroyed all remaining value in the brand. :-) [Reply]

I to didn't care much for the first episode, but the 2nd episode is much, much better. Do yourself a favor and watch it. [Reply]
