Boba & Bo

 

So is Boba back or not? -The thought occurred to me that Boba has more than one set of Beskar -The Holiday Special armour although maybe the green paint job is a re-colouring -in my mind he has three armors the McQuarrie Supertrooper with Clint Eastwoodian  poncho

you see above and the most famous one you see him wearing in the movies -    The Holiday Special armour also appeared in Droids Cartoon-would be neat to see this or the white armor been put to use.

 What also puzzles me is what's happened to Slave 1?  is it still in Fett's possession is parked in Jabba's Palace Garage  or Mos Eisley or another Spaceport -something tells me he's suffering from amenisia just like 1984 marvel comic  "Jawas or Doom "except more long term -


 If rumours are to be believed Bobby's  getting his own mini series on Disney +  it would make more sense  if we explore his escape from Sarlacc in his own series - after Solo undeservedly bombed plans for a Fett movie  were cancelled but I don't think  it's been selved altogether -certainly it's a story I'd like to see

I reckon Baba Yada  knew excatly which egg had life  and wanted to eat the rest-every time I see The Child I think of my Godsons Son -not that he has big ears or anything -hopefully I'll get to meet next month -he really loves Johnny Panda and there's Johnny Bear too

 Almost halway through the season-not sure we'll see Ashoka in the next episode -reading IMDB looks like Action Jackson  is set to direct the fourth episode which makes me think Din will be heading back to  Nevarro -the Razorcrests in a bad way so he'll probably see his old friends first  before heading for The forrest planet of  Corvus -which is also the name of Iden Versio's ship  (the heroine of Battlefront 2's campaign)maybe Moff Gideon will also sidetrack The Mandalorians quest.- re-enter Bo Katan to get back the Darksaber -Moff really needs a helmet maybe one like Agent Callus but in black (I wonder if he's named after another villian George Osborne  who's real name is Gideon lol)

 

Very impressed with the live action  Bo Katan and the Nite Owls (is there name a nod to female WW2 Russian Pilots or Dan from The Watchmen(I still can't bring myself to watch TV show -Alan's a bit of a God  so don't wan't to bum him out  I liked the game a few years back-but reckon I'd of rather seen a  Terry Gillian version of the movie ) or maybe  it's a doo wop thang


Supercommando awesome to see those guys kicking Squidhead and Stormtrooper ass -We'll get to see Sabine too hopefully soon -I hope she's sorted her hair out  not a fan of her post Jedi look 








Not my favourite clan The Death Watch -more of a Merreels Maurders type of guy meaning Jaster Merreel  

 

or Mandalorian Protector's as that's where Boba's original origin story from 1982 which I coloured a few years back - but it's awesome she bought all the clans together -she can do it again with Din and The Childs help I reckon but it's going to be a bumpy ride. Guess Bo's about my age if she was about 20 at the start of The Clone Wars she's aged well guess rocking a buckets good for the skin. Season 2's top stuff  so far -looking forward to next Friday already- most humonoids with an interest for The Mandalorian  would of seen this already-but it's very smart & funny have to give it another listen - I'm sure fist time I  saw this in colour though.- then again the original GNR video was in black n white - was mashed when  first  saw it  though.

November V

Despite lockdown I can hear fireworks outside -bummer!-historically I would of sided with Guy -I have plans for the House of Parliament in my comic story -and politicians too (lets just say they'll be the new refugees) Episode from 1963 Supermac years- I'd vote for Cathy Everytime!

The Avengers in reverse -never watched it like this before -perfect TV get through a missle crisis whilst your eating your Rice Crispies-much better on DVD but it's here and relevant to post. 

 

Such I great show I'm recreating my own-although everyone apart from Codsworth, Anne Hargreaves and The Bibrov Brothers have American accents -still its fun to re-create Cold War eastern block in Diamond City -This ones in colour-but the rest of this story will be in glorius monotone to get that season 4 vibe, Fridays are like 70's Happy Days at O'Hagan Manor simply because The Mandalorian is back as is Thee Bobster-Kinda knew about Cobb Vanth surprising choice of Under Armour -but you can tell he's no Shocktrooper from the same Manor as Anakin -possibly around the same age-but Iliked him -kinda James Garneresque-hope to see more of his character

What next? I mean classic Kung Fu type ending with Twin Suns Sarlacc stole Bobbies eyebrows -I hope he 's more Caine like these days -not sure he's bothered about Cobb for some reason -it's been five or six years since he got out of the Pit of Carkoon - seems to be in no rush to get his clobber back it seems . Been such a sad week - my friends Father died about that-wish there was something I could do but everythings offically in lockdown (don't stop these fireworkers -one day I'll go Dragons Den with a Stealth Firework )Dunno whats to celebrate buncha it's SuperShite  right now  shouldn't be ruled by old fools. by Fools there's nowt worse than driving a dog crazy just coz you love been ruled by fools kinda broken up no lie!

. On the positive side though my Great Nephew has returned from Russia with his Mum and I'm over the moon that my Godson finally gets to see his son-I bought him a Panda(very soft) and for the second time I have a soft two named after me (Johnny Bear 1993 and now Johnny Panda 2020) so I'm most honoured Round of with some Stella Street -sad to here about John -one of the best as this and every episode testifys

Sock it to Me SC !

A Post dedicated to Sean Connery I guess the first actor along with John Wayne that I idolised as wee kid -always excited when there was a Bond film on pre school so I was well aware of JB from mid 70's onwards -I think I wanted to be a Ninja after seeing "You Only Live Twice" I'd recreate the battle inside the hollowed out Volcano with clothes pegs (one side Red the other Yellow -who needs action figures ) also had the Corgi Aston Martin with ejector seat -ahh the days just before Star Wars and Superman -may seem distant but it all came back to me watching all these tributes to Sean - funny how I was only listening to this and watching the golf scene from Goldfinger the other day Here's a few scenes   from the Longest Day which I loved (where he's playing a Irish Man for some reason Private Flanagan- mind you his roots lay in County Wexford (same as me Mum) From what I've read Sean was a boy sailor just after  the war from the age of 16-19 he had a very eventful life before he hit the big time and came from humble beginnings living in a one room house with his Mum and Dad

"Red Wine with Fish?"


Connery revisted "From Russia with Love " although Red Grant didn't go down so easilly in that game If this is on PC or PS4 I'd love to revisit this world and take out baddies in that Aston Martin. 

 

Big fan of Little Nellie too The other JB John Barry 

Remember seeing this back when Ch4 would put a movie on in the afternoon -used to think Stanley Baker was Connery -first time I saw Guns of the Navaronne thought Stan was Sean

 

everybodies in this.. even Sid James. A few of Seans Later Roles now Starting with Brian DePalma's The Untouchables hey that's Toad from American Graffiti- Henry Jones Sr Funny thing is theres only twelve years age diffence between Harrison & Sean.

Mr Kipling Makes exceedly good cakes

 

 

The Greatest Bond for sure but I love Roger and Daniel too glad he likes "Geordies" version of Bond- hope we get to see the next installment soon Been a bad year for Fictional Superspies (Emma, Cathy and now James ) Hopefully tommorow the diabolical criminal disastermind will be ousted but after last time I'm not reserving much hope -just pray North Americans will surprise me.
