Smudge -

Just my input -
Since Mando 1 and 2 were really about Mando and the Grogu story - and though while Fett was introduced in that series - I’m not so sure these flashbacks about Fett in the new series should be ADDED to your previous 2 movies. Fett is a supporting character in those seasons - his past is not included for a reason…

Sort of like growing up watching episodes 4,5,6…with episodes 1,2,3 released, I still refuse to recommend people watch the movies in true number order. Episode 4 loses effect when you already know who Vader is when he first appears, etc for 5 and 6…

So, watching the new series about Fett, I love the flashbacks as they are shown in stages relevant to the present story— if that makes sense. Questions are being answered about Fett in pieces at the right time and would not be beneficial being answered earlier in the previous season movies as then watching Fett’s season, you already know the past story.

sorry if folks disagree - I guess I’m a Pulp Fiction fan, too and though I still have friends that hate the time jumping, I know these items are mixed for the purpose of using the chapter storytelling format presented. I have watched the fanedit of Pulp presenting everything in order…and it’s just not the same…and lacks the suspense and depth you feel otherwise…

thanks!

I was never intending to add a huge amount of this series into the Mando movies. I’m only going to insert scenes if they add to the Mando movies themselves.

So far the only thing I’m definitely adding is the scene where Boba approaches Fennec’s body because the scene from Gunslinger feels way too short.

It’ll be interesting to see if we get any further flashbacks as we’re almost up to Mando season 2 in terms of the timeline. I’d love to get a few flashback scenes of Boba tracking Mando. That would fit nicely into the second Mando movie.
