Mini Series The Twins (spoilers)

Yeah, but you should have kept watching the whole scene with the Twins, because a few minutes later he tells the Twins to "Go back to Nal Hutta"

 

Yes! I knew there was a reason I thought Boba said Nal Hutta in the episode. Because…he did.

 

I thought it was a really well done reintroduction, it wasn't overdone or pushed their story too prematurely... it was just right and left the audience intrigued and wanting to see more as the series progresses.

 

Yep the intro of the twins in my opinion has been the best thing about this series so far, it just felt like they nailed the grossness and sleaziness of the Hutts.

 

Jibba and Jubba

 

They're Ewok swear words!!!

 

"what did you just say to me you jerk?"

 

Philip and Lillian (Phil and Lil) The Hutt

 

will they be in the next episode, only 2 and a half hrs to find out!

 

Their intro was awesome...but that was all undone this week, What a waste...

Also, did they have their slaves walk them all the way to Boba Fetts palace with a sedated Rancor and no other back up?? What the...

 

Yeah but Danny Trejo seemed to know what he was doing with the Rancor. If that is all we see of the twins, then yeah it is a waste but the series isn't over yet. I don't think we've seen the last of them, even if it isn't this season.

 

The Twins need to survive the events of this series and provide Hutty goodness through decades of future SW programming.

 

The twins are very Hutty indeed, but I don't think 'goodness' applies to them.

 

Well who exemplifies Hutty goodness to you then?

 

Why Geezer the Hutt, of course! Guy wants to be a musician rather than a gangster. Lovable and proof that not all Hutts are bad.

 

Hah, yeah, the "let's get carried all the way to the palace over uneven terrain on our litter" thing seemed a little dumb to me. Like yeah, they're grade-A ****s and probably enjoy making their underlings do the physical labor, if only for ****s & giggles, but...

Yeah, save the litter thing for intimidating everyday nobodies in the city streets and making a statement, methinks. You'd figure big flat load-bearing speeders probably exist in the GFFA, some big pompous Star Wars version of Hitler's care or the Popemobile, that Hutts could be chauffered about in. The litter thing was a little lame second-time around in context, especially considering they were there to humble themselves with an apology before butting out off-world.

Also strikes me as pretty funny how little security they seemed to have in that first appearance outside the club. Unless the dudes carrying the litter are supposed to just set it down and whip out the pew-pew guns when the bosses are coming under attack. You'd kinda figure Jabba probably would have travelled around backed by like 10 hunter employees and a crudload of Gamorreans. Rivals in the criminal game might know you need to get permission from the Hutt La Cosa Nostra Commission or whatever, but nothing's stopping some crazy guy with a grudge and no sense of self-preservation from camping out somewhere ready to take a shot at 'em.

 

Exactly. The Twins on the litter was great and made a ton of sense as a public flex in the middle of a crowded square in Mos Espa. It was dumb and cartoonish when they show up that way at Boba’s door.

 

I'm guessing that the budget didn't allow for a more sensible mode of transport at the palace, so they just reused the litter and carriers to save money. It doesn't make any sense in-universe, and that's the only sensible explanation I can think of out-of-universe.

 

Ehh, not sure some Huttmobile CG model would eat too much into the budget really. Seems even with the new cost-cutting tech the budget for Star Wars TV eps is pretty high anyway in the scheme of things.

 

With how mutch it cost to CGI i then I see why you dont have hutts as main villains. They probaly seen troughout the series.

 

And to pay all those extras to carry them around.

 

I suspect it's a budget issue as well (I'm guessing much went into the rancor), or perhaps a late edit or rewrite requiring a reshoot.

 

This. So much this
