How The Book of Boba Fett is Rehabilitating Tatooine's ImageTatoonie was introduce to us in 1977 as a wasteland, an outlying planet in a galaxy that has so much more to offer. A "wretched hive of scum and villainy" as it were. Luke Skywalker couldn't wait to leave it. Neither could Anakin Skywalker. Yet Star Wars returned to the planet over and over, until by now it seems to be the center of the galaxy. Besides the movies, Disney has two TV series that are set on Tatooine. Obi-Wan Kenobi has yet to premiere, but we know the premise. The currently-streaming show The Book of Boba Fett embraces Tatooine in order to bring back characters we already know, but it also gives us a more nuanced look at the planet. The Book of Boba Fett is chock-full of characters we have considered villains in the past. The title character himself went from a minor bad guy who was quickly killed off to the main character, but that was the doing of Star Wars fans over decades. In the TV series, we get to know the Tusken Raiders as a misunderstood aboriginal civilization, instead of the generic danger they were portrayed as in the movies. Rancors were dangerous monsters until we met a baby specimen. Even the violent bar fights are discouraged in The Book of Boba Fett. Read how all these things are making Tatooine look like a more hospitable world at The Ringer. -viaDigg #StarWars #Tatooine #TheBookofBobaFett
