Episode 138 - The Book of Boba Fett Series Review + Police Academy on Retro Rewind

It was the series we got that we didn't even know we needed, and somehow the magic of Disney and Lucasfilm, spearheaded by Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni have given us something truly special. The continuity, and expanded Star Wars canon universe is explored in this Mandalorian spin off series that focuses on the back story of Boba Fett after we last saw him plunge into the sarlacc pit in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. It gave beloved fans of Boba Fett the back story we truly felt this anti-hero of Star Wars deserves. Reprising his role as Fett, Temuera Morrison returns from the prequel trilogy and delivers a stunning performance as the well noted bounty hunter. We will explore easter eggs, highlights, cameos and review the series as a whole. We also visit the 1984 cult comedy classic, Police Academy on this week's Retro Rewind.
