This is a very bleak war film set in the Star Wars universe we know and love. That alone is going to cause problems for some people. Even knowing that going in, it was still a bit of a “short circuit” going on in my head the whole time. We would never see our regular heroes snapping someone’s neck, or little Artoo being blasted to pieces permanently.

It was a calculated gamble to break with the established style and “fun” of a traditional SW episode. Now that it’s paid off, the next couple films have a blank check to take more risks and be different.

I actually want to see a Boba Fett “Western” now. Do it totally like a Sergio Leone film.

Kevin Rubio could make his “Tag and Bink Are Dead” comic into the funniest SW film ever made.😉
