    Why the hyphen, D?

    Dude don't have no hyphen.

    Ming-Na has a hyphen, but she's just in it.

    I can barely wait. The trailer, though, indicates a storyline I had not anticipated. This is going to be great.

    Clones age faster. Clone Wars and Rebels established this.

    I was thinking of this as well, but Boba is an unaltered clone.

    And nowhere did they say it was only limited to altered clones.

    I'm pretty sure they do say this because they needed them to age faster for the war effort.

    Right he was unaltered to age normally. Like a child. Jango wanted to raise him after all.

    "born" in 32 BBY, so 41-42 in Mando.

    When Jabba said the victims of the Sarlacc were digested over 1000 years, he meant, like, 8 weeks in outside-the-Sarlacc time. :diacanu:

    Is it even canon that Boba Fett can read, much less write an entire book? After all, his father left him at a very young age.

    caught a few "analysts" saying they saw the Millenium Falcon
    I looked closely... there's no way that's the Falcon given the angle we see (right aft) and the direction it's travelling (also right aft).
    Also seemed kinda thick.

    Not sure why it's weird. Tosche Station shouldn't be too far from Mos Eisely as Luke and Ben made it from the Lars farm before dark. and the rest of the planet doesn't look as if it's got a lot of towns - big or small.

    It certainly looks the same interior, beyond what I would believe is coincidence. It's probably just more fan service, but I dig it.

    Maybe Tosche Station is a big, important town in the region. All we see of it in the original ANH outtakes isnn't very revealing. My impression, based on the (admittedly weak) evidence of Luke's dialog, is that it's the nearest "civilization." If the Lars need stuff (blue milk or what have you) they go there to get it.

    Though flashbacks, Boba Fett's story after being swallowed by the Salarc and what happened afterwards.

    It was decent, will have too wait for the next episode to see where it goes and if it holds up.

    Episode 1 was solid. I'll keep watching. :yes:

    But I do wonder how this show is going to differentiate itself from Mando.
