[SUBS] The Book of Boba Fett (from December 29th 7pm) @ Disney Plus

10768

I would like to remind everyone that this is a completely new show coming to Disney Plus, not a new season. If you would like to stop seeing these deals please hide them.
Tweets and sneak peeks here: https://twitter.com/starwars

"On the sands of Tatooine, bounty hunter Boba Fett and mercenary Fennec Shand navigate the Galaxy's underworld and fight for Jabba the Hutt's old territory." Good to see Boba Fett, again, more of an Antihero. Finally an Asian American Co-Lead Ming-Na Wen playing Fennec Shand in a Disney Star Wars Series! Jon Favreau started the whole Marvel Cinematic Universe and Mandalorian so I'm looking forward to this!

To recap, here’s what to expect and when:

Episode 1: 7.00 pm AEDT, 29 December 2021
Episode 2: 7.00 pm AEDT, 5 January 2022
Episode 3: 7.00 pm AEDT, 12 January 2022
Episode 4: 7.00 pm AEDT, 19 January 2022
Episode 5: 7.00 pm AEDT, 26 January 2022
Episode 6: 7.00 pm AEDT, 2 February 2022
Episode 7: 7.00 pm AEDT, 9 February 2022

        Dude, this changes nothing. It still won't be a deal in the literal sense.

      You can pirate the show if you don't want to support the creators too?

        Why are you suggesting to do any illegal act such as pirating????

      • +1

        So you suggest that you should steal the goods and that is the actual bargain? What are you saying?

      • +1

        Implying Disney actually supports the creators and doesn't just poket all the cash. Keep shilling for the massive media conglomerate I'm sure they really care about you.

    I don’t even mind these being posted as reminders

    But screw Disney and the Garbage Star Wars crap they produce

      John Favreau and Mandalorian miniseries he has made have been fantastic so far, just the movies have been substandard

        Got bored of It near end of season 1, but I agree it was better

  • +2

    am I the only one who thinks based on George's movies, Boba (and Jango) was a wuss? They both went down really easily. Jango saw a Jedi and was so scared he fled to the other side of the galaxy. Ended up losing his head when he fought a jedi.

    Boba.. he didn't do anything in the films. According to Lucas's canon, he died in the sarlacc pit. The EU novels were never canon and 'canon' only got changed after Disney bought Lucasfilm. I consider the original creator's word as word of god. The new owners can change whatever they want, but it wasn't the original creator's vision.

    I know I'm in the minority for thinking this but both bounty hunters are overrated.

    • +4

      100%

      The Disney TV shows and movies are at best fan-fiction, and at worst design by committee formulaic Xena Warrior Princess level shows designed to shift merchandise to kids and middle age men who are adopting this as their identities in place of developing a personality.

      It is sad that when you watch the original trilogy and, for all its faults, the prequels, George Lucas did actually want to tell a story and he had a creative vision.

    If only there was some kind of forum this could get posted on instead of it being listed as a 'deal'…

    • You can block seeing [SUBS] deals by following the instructions at the top of this deal. The forums aren't the shitheap where we throw deals to at random.

      Maybe you can post it as your first deal?

      • Salty much? You got more positives than negatives so, take the win.

  • +11

    OP is mega salty, this is not a deal, forum post at best.

    We should have an option to block specific crap (netflix, disney etc) if we must allow them to be posted as "deals"

    • -3

      You do? It's at the very top on my post, its added to every sub post

      We have discussed this thread and the steps forward.

      Users who wish to block "Additions to Subscription Services" can do so by adding SUBS to their front page customisation.

        I want to see xbox game pass & psn etc, but not new shows added to streaming services every second day, I see enough ads about them as it is let alone here too

      Nah this is a great deal and it shows with its 16 negs and counting fast 😂

        67 upvotes whats your point?

    • You can block Disney by hitting the hide link at the top of this deal, and select hide all deals from Disney+. You can do the same for any other store.

      • But then wouldn't i miss possible deals like the recent 1 year of paramount for $5.99 by blocking them all under the same banner?

        • Yes, so probably not worth blocking Disney+ which currently has

          • 4 deals posted in December out of 3439 posted deals or ~.1163% of deals.
          • 1 deal posted in November out of 5343 posted deals or ~.01871% of deals.

          Instead just block [SUBS] via the instructions.

          • @neil: Again, I'll end up blocking actual deals under that blanket to get rid of these forum posts.. not really a great solution

    This is going to be deleted or moved to forums out of spite and then no one will see it anymore.

    • No, personally I don't think so

    • Nope. I'm just going to lecture everyone, remind everyone of how the functionality of blocking & hiding deals works, all for it to be ignored or forgotten until the next SUBS deals. :)

  • +5

    How much is it usually? I don't mind the subs where they use to cost but become part of a Freebie for a month like PS+ or the like, but this is ridiculous. The show is part of your subscription you pay for. No bargain here.

    • -3

      Your dignity when you pirate it instead of paying for subscription

      • +6

        What the….does that mean? I don't condone pirating. If I want to watch it which I will one day I will need to pay for it so I don't see this as any type of bargain. Let me know when this type of thing is a bargain.

        • Today… When it is allowed on Ozbargains
          Let me know when it isn't a bargain

            @[Deactivated]:

            Let me know when it isn't a bargain

            It's literally not a bargain. It was the same price before the show was added. There's no discount of any kind.

            • @apsilon: But its better value with the show? I wouldn't pay for Disney plus without Star Wars exclusive Miniseries like Mandalorian and Boba Fett?

              • +2

                @[Deactivated]: I won't pay the current price without a discount regardless of any individual show. There's no discount/deal here.

          • +3

            @[Deactivated]: No I will just let the -ve votes decide it is not a bargain. This is always going to cost the same or until Disney decide to put their price up next.

            • @colaman: Yet this has reached the front page, so I think I'm right about this being a bargain

              • +2

                @[Deactivated]: Yes you think but a lot don't. And no this show doesn't make it better value. You pay your subscription because you expect there to be shows like this produced.

  • +16

    The fact that you need to keep re-posting the moderator and voting guidelines speaks volumes. Read the room buddy, nobody likes this sort of thing being posted as a deal.

        I don't if they are legitimate, but its the same people every time who aren't hiding [SUBS] and downvoting with the same "Not a deal" comment I ran out of reports

  • +13

    So everyone needs to edit their profile settings in order to not see spam in the main feed that is not related to bargains in any way? That sucks

    • -3

      This is something you should raise to @scotty personally and not complain about to me, simply trying to post deals

      • +5

        I am posting my comments in the comments section which is why it exists. And this website exists to post deals. Which this is not.

        As with most people in this discussion, I feel that it is spam. I suspect that you are getting the attention you crave, however.

        • -1

          Yes, but if you feel it is spam you should report it to the owner of Ozbargain and not a simple user operating within the rules

          • +3

            @[Deactivated]: I choose to downvote you and providing comments in the appropriate comments section.

            • @helloworld2021: You know that doesn't achieve anything? You can simply hide [SUBS] instead of complaining how the website works? Do you complain how tax works to the ATO or do you vote in a government who will enact tax reform?

              • +4

                @[Deactivated]: I could do that, but I won't. Like most others, I will call out the childish spam when I see it and if it persists I will simply visit this website less frequently, if ever, considering the noise that spammers like you are causing here distracting from the reason why people visit. Editing my account settings to indulge people you seems quite silly.

    This is an exclusive show on Disney+, not being released or shown elsewhere.

    It does not need a deal to be posted for it.

    • -1

      So was Shang Chi, Free guy, Mulan, Encanto yet I don't see you downvoting those and all the others

      • +5

        In my case I wasn't interested in any of those. I am interested in this show and when I saw this thought there may be a discount on offer to watch it but there's no actual deal. It's just new content being added at existing price. I think that's why so many people are annoyed.

        • Yeah this show is significantly better than the ones I mentioned, I think my issue is this is a popular franchise and only available on Disney Plus

          • +1

            @[Deactivated]: How can you say this show is better. It has not even been shown yet. It might be rubbish or might be great. Now you are making assumptions.

      • +1

        Why are you so defensive and taking it personally?

        Shang Chi, Free guy, Mulan, Encanto

        All movies with exception to Mulan were/are available in cinemas. So there is perhaps a more obvious perk with listing those as a deal to save on a cinema ticket.

        I do not consider this a deal as it is exclusive to Disney+ and not available legally to watch anywhere else in Australia.

        yet I don't see you downvoting those and all the others

        It is rather comical you cross referenced my voting behaviour. I don't even recall seeing the Mulan deal and in either case you can't dictate how or when or for what deals I vote.

  • +9

    Lol, Op is super salty about downvotes.

    Take a chill pill and don't take it personally.

    • -1

      I'm not but its the same people who see [SUBS] posts and take an opportunity to downvote instead of actually talking to moderators and staff to change anything

  • +11

    I don't usually get involved with these sub "deals" but this is getting ridiculous. Surely we could do a monthly post with all new shows across all streaming networks similar to the weekly colesworth deals and then anything particularly good also gets it's own post?

    • Great idea maybe you can tell @scotty ?
      This show does rate as particularly good for me as Mandalorian was the best show of 2020

    • +3

      Or just throw it in a forum thread. Case closed

        So you are posting this spam just to get some metrics on your account?
        If that fulfils your life then good luck to you, but perhaps you can post some actual deals instead that will both benefit the community and your self-esteem needs.

        There are literally thousands of Boxing Day sales not getting any love here.

        • None of the subscription deal posts I have done have provided any metrics better than my average deal which I have 104 of other than sub post deals. I tried to get my Witcher one removed but Mods said it had too many comments, votes and time after an hour.
