Well after the last episode it’s clear the best play is to make this Mandalorian 3. Maybe make the Boba flashbacks their own side movie.
Indeed. And TBH I can probably fit in enough edited flashbacks to support the narrative.
Yay! I was hoping there was a way to fit it in without needing to do a side movie/special with all the edited flashbacks together as a stand alone thing. I think the problem you may run into though is once Mando Season 3 comes out, you may end up having to make this 2 movies since you are now cutting into the runtime of what will be your Mando Season 3 movie without even beginning with Season 3’s material. Unless Mando Season 3 has enough filler to still get an edit around the 2h30m you’ve been shooting for, than it wouldn’t be any issue.
I recall you had plans at one time to go back through Mando Season 1&2 and make it 2 movies per season instead of 1 per each season. If you ever decide to go back through for that, I think you could easily fit the Boba Fett flashbacks into the earlier movies, instead of it cutting into the plotline here.
