Ming-Na Wen is Fennec Shand

Boba next episode: "I don't seem to remember ever falling into a Sarlaac...."

 

I like the code of honour a lot of the characters in the show seem to have and how important it is to them (willing to risk their life to repay a debt), regardless of what they do for a day job.

 

The real answer to why Obi-Wan Kenobi and R2 didn't recognize each other:

"We didn't think that far ahead in writing the story.'

 

That's probably the answer to most of the inconsistencies lol.

 

Still George Lucas' fault for not making stuff in the prequels line up better with the OT, like Qui-Gon training Obi-Wan instead of Yoda, Obi-Wan having supposedly never had a droid, and Leia remembering their mother but Luke not ("she died when I was very young", yea like thirty seconds old).

 

To be FAIR and put my nerd hat on, all of those things can be explained as..

Obi-Wan never owned a droid (his words). And how do we know if R2 recognizes Obi-Wan or not?

In the prequels, it's established that Yoda trains Younglings first and then they go off with a master, so again, that is true from a certain point of view



Even Leia remembering her mother can be explained that she has a memory of her as a baby being held thanks to the Force.

Dave Filoni is a pretty thoughtful guy about ALL of this from interviews I've seen. I'm fairly certain he must have worked out a reason for Boba Fett with Jon Favreau. Filoni doesn't seem like a J.J. Abrams guy who'll figure it out later.

 

Happy she is back, with enhancements. I like the series doesn't keep bumping people off. Fan service me to death with great casting.

 

Haha, I’m the same. Keep it coming!

 

Yeah... I think they have their Cara Dune replacement contingency in full effect..

 

Well well well.

 

I wonder if Ming Na will also provide the voice for the character in that show.

 

Glad to see Ming Na's character getting more screentime throughout the Star Wars universe. I was a bit annoyed with her apparent death in S1.

 

Yeah, I hope so.

 

I was more just surprised to see Ming-na on the Mandalorian and hoped we'd get to see her on some other show as another character in the future, but all that changed for the bettervwith her season 2 reveal.

 

Best of both worlds, right?

 

Rewatching Chapter 15 I have to say... I want to know what makes her tick.

In the current crew she's the one that is frankly, the most shady. Imperial and New Republic AND the criminal element are all on the lookout for her. There's a story in who she is and how she came to be.

 

And she’s in a crew that includes Boba Fett, so being the most shady one is....a statement.

 

Exactly.

 

Looks like she’s got a history with Jango Fett clones going by the Bad Batch.
