Ming-Na Wen simply isn't human. She's 57.

I truly believe what keeps her as young as she looks is her absolutely filthy mind. If you watch any of her interviews, and especially panels with the cast of Agents of SHIELD, they are almost terrified to say certain things because she'll make a sexual innuendo out of almost anything.

Jennifer Beals is 58.

This video has a lot of info on who Cad Bane is. It has spoilers obviously what he did in the Clone Was cartoon/show so don't watch if you plan to watch them. Also talk how he's connected to Jango and Boba.

Watch some of her interview videos with the Agents of SHIELD cast. She can turn any word, phrase or sentence into a dirty innuendo.

The elephant in the room is that Temuera Morrison is a boring actor with about zero charisma. And 61 years old. They never should have brought him back as Boba. Either leave the helmet on like Mando, or cast another actor. Can you imagine if a grizzled Timothy Olyphant was Boba Fett instead of Cobb Vanth? Or Tom Hiddleston? Boba should be someone with a little evil in them. Choosing to stick with George Lucas's Jango Fett casting choice really diminished Boba Fett as a character


You don’t have to be a sassy mouth runner to be a Hardass. Boba is feared because his pops was the GOAT bounty hunter. No one will frick with him because of his pops rep.

I echo what just about everyone has been saying.
Having said that, I'm really trying hard to get that 'ol Disney stank off. The choosing felt very un-jedi. I know, I know. It just felt too Disney.
Luke was a little better except for some stilted dialogue. Like Lucas would probably say, "Faster" or whatever he told them whilst making ANH. Everyone speaks like they're running out for time.

Disney, please don't deep fake HAN.

Ben Solo


I’ve always wondered why Han/Leia would name him Ben. They didn’t have the connection to him that Luke did. Yes, Leia went to him for help but there was never a really close connection that I saw.

IIRC in the EU Luke and Mara Jade’s son was named Ben

Now MARA JADE is who I wanna see…

Yes, MJ!

Luke is not a monk.

He's old, had a hard battle tested life, and is an unaltered clone of Jango, played by Morrison.
I am okay with it.

F&F just need to write in some badassery with the helmet on, and all will be forgiven.

I will say, they could have put Morrison in a boot camp or at least on a peloton. Some scenes it looks like his Beskar is a pocket square.

He is in a lot better shape in BoBF S1 than Mando S2.

I’m sure between Bail and then Luke communing with he and others they put the pieces together on how important he was in their early life. Hell before they were even born

Here’s my little shirt fan fiction of how they can bring Mara Jade into the fold:

Word gets out about Luke’s new academy.

Mara has a younger brother who is Force sensitive and wants him to harness his power properly since their parents were lost during the Empire’s RoT.

She and Luke get close, Luke spends more and more time with Mara’s brother. Kylo gets jealous, goes ham, Mara flees (while carrying a child Luke is unaware of). Luke checks out because everything he worked for is in ruins because he made the same mistakes his father did with personal attachments.

My kinda MILF/GILF. Love Ming-Na. Looks like loads of fun to be with and most definitely an Uber freak in the sheets. Must be a blast working with her.

Was not expecting Cade Bane. He looked good. Glad they used the OG voice actor.

I just rewatched this episode. Couple things stand out to me;

they tended to Cobb Vance after he was shot. He was hit once in the right upper chest/shoulder, not center mass. Nobody looked twice at the deputy, who was clearly dead.
And they weren't acting like Vance was dead (like just looking at him), there was some poking and dabbing. I think I saw a bandage or something.

Also, I don't know if Rosario Dawson was just playing with a flirtatious manner, but there was definitely chemistry between Ahsoka and Luke.

Cad Bane


Hmmm, he's had multiple stoylines where he was bounty hunting kids (the greedo kid & Omega), basically having a specialty as a child snatcher...

Could Bane one day be sent to abduct Grogu in Mando season 3? It almost seems like a natural future storyline should he survive the Boba finale.

I actually took Luke's delivery of the line, "Will I see you again?" as having a hint of longing than simply a platonic farewell. I wouldn't blame him either.

I could be misreading, but you'd think a platonic goodbye between friends might be more, "Thanks for dropping by/Take care/Stay safe" kind of thing. Though the Will I see you again line simply might've been dropped only as an easter egg hinting at a future Jedi team-up in the Ahsoka series or Mando S3.

She's the only one he knows still alive who knew his parents.
