The Mandalorian 2.8 Review - 6 Ups And 3 Downs From Chapter 16
5. Boba Fett Doing Boba Fett Stuff
Lucasfilm
What was once the obligatory "Grogu Doing Grogu Things" entry has now become the "Boba Fett appreciation zone". But what can I say? It's just great to have Temuera Morrison back doing Boba Fett stuff.
While he doesn't deploy his seismic charges this time around, he does get to show off his skills in the Slave I, and it was pretty funny seeing him toy with all those TIE Fighters for the sake of providing the infiltration team's cover, only to then just turn around and blow them to smithereens like they were nothing.
Morrison's Boba has been a revelation this season, and the best part - thanks to the post-credits sequence - is that there's more of him to come.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
