I would bring back season 1’s Tatooine episode (The Gunslinger) and merge it with Chapter 9. Introduces Boba and Fennec together. You could then take the beginning of Chapter 10, and do a comedic cut from it being dangerous to the broken down ship in The Heiress, using that episode as your third act. After, you can use the tag from The Seige as if one of the repair guys in that episode informed Gideon.
Film 2 could be The Jedi, The Tragedy, and the final two episodes.
And I still think the Gideon tag from the end of season one should be put at the end of the season 1 film.
I don’t think we need to see Bill Burr’s introduction, just like Lando’s origin wasn’t needed on screen.
Thats probably the best approach for now.
At the moment I don’t need to put in The Gunslinger. I’ve edited out any reference to Mando knowing Fennic and it works. She’s just Boba’s sidekick or hire. Have to see if that still holds true by the end of the season. I’d like to avoid using the Gunslinger if I can because it really drags out the Tatooine stuff and I really don’t like Toro.
Annoyingly, from a film perspective, the best “end” to episode 2 would be the kidnap of the child. It would give it an ESB vibe. However, I’m then not left with enough material for Episode 3.
If you can avoid using the Gunslinger episode, then it’s perfect 👌🏽
Well, I think you should end the 2nd episode with the end of “The Jedi”, less dramatic, but pacing would be better I guess. You can always put the scene from 2x4 at the end 😉
I have no idea what you are gonna do about 2x5,but i think you should include it, in some trimmed version. Apart from being a cool action packed ep, it also revealed a lot of important stuff to the whole story.
