It feels "off" BECAUSE IT'S DISNEY!
Hey Alan, do you think you could maybe make your videos a bit longer, maybe like 15 minutes just to dive more into detail or more information, I find your videos very interesting and I would like to hear more about singular topics. Thx
Have you seen the whole series?
And I thought obi wan only cut there clothes off and exposed there skin defeating them with out killing any of them
I just assumed it's because the Tusken's and Mandalorians are very much one and the same. They both come from various historic clans, they have their own religion of sorts, they're both warriors and they both have honor codes. One has very durable armor and the other is built for withstanding the harsh heat of Tatooine but with a focus on melee combat and some sharpshooter skills. Whilst Mandalorians have a focus on well rounded defense, mixed martial arts and melee combat along with skilled shooters.
The Jawa and the tusken are actually the same species… at least they were back before there planet was destroyed and they (the original species) were forced to live underground…. The one species we know now came to the surface while the other species had been against going above ground so spending even more thousands of years underground they were changed as both sides suffered with devolving as a species… the mandalorians aren’t similar to them… they were a true warrior race… not a devolved species split into 2 different species
Both of their planets got destroyed by outsiders
@@zachall101 how bout jawas that aren't on tatooine
Yea thats a cool opinion, i only assumed they had some kind of respect for each other considering they have some similarities
@@zachall101 a warrior recognizes and respects a fellow warrior, no matter where they are from. They may come from different backgrounds and evolutionary paths, or even be different species altogether. But the important thing that makes them similar is that they are both warriors and follow a code. And when they code fits with another's, respect is greater.
I'm Norwegian and my best friend is Algerian. We like to joke that I'm from Hoth and he's a Tusken
That's so amazing
I love this
Haha I like this.
The ancestors of Tuskens were enslaved by the Rakatan Infinite Empire, they eventually rebelled which lead to the Rakata orbitally bombarding Tattooine and turning it into a desert wasteland. After all that, the Czerka Corporation came and messed around on Tattooine. Czerka Corporation were extremely hostile and greedy. Those two are probably the main reasons why Tuskens were so hostile towards outsiders.
No, that was just the reasoning of that one particular tribe that was suffering from Czerka's treatment of the Dune Sea. Those are the only Tuskens in KOTOR that can be reasoned with. But then you meet a different tribe near the Krayt Dragon, who are basically just mindless savages.
@@vetarlittorf1807 more accurately, they basically act like the ones you convince for LS points before you see their leader
The tusken people got shit on lol. They deserved to be slaves
Unfortunately this isn’t canon and we don’t know the canon reason tattooine is a dessert. In book of boba fett they do mention it used to have water
@@bingobongo8701 Why?
I love how the book of boba Fett has made the tuskans seem more as personal beings rather than monsters. Before we seen them as evil, but now they are seen as more tribal and more humane.
Some one should tell Alan from generation tech that he should make a video where the galactic republic with the jedi attack earth he said that he would do it but it's been 3 years I think he has forgotten
Not if you've read Legends.
Even in the Mandalorian they focused on their culture a little bit but we never fully learnt as much as we know now (unless you read a lot)
@@adeptuscustodies8203 Tell him yourself. He has a patreon, donate and suggest the idea directly.
Aren't the tuskans the devolved form of a formerly advanced space faring civilization who's world got glassed?
And you saw them as "evil"?
The Chieftain of the tribe that Boba was taken by outright says that there are many Tusken tribes, and the majority of them survive by killing. His tribe, survives by hiding, to which Boba contests that they shouldn't have to, because they are warriors.
Boba's influence on them is something the Chieftain has an open mind to, and doesn't look like an affront to his beliefs. Perhaps this Chieftain is more philosophical, more intelligent, more caring than other Tuskens. Why, I wonder? Maybe because of the stories of Anakin? Maybe because of a run in with Obi Wan? Maybe we'll be shown this in more of Boba's dreams.
How would the story of Anakin's slaughter spread when there weren't any Tuskens left to tell the tale?
@@vetarlittorf1807 What if one of the children was force sensitive and hid his presence?
@@vetarlittorf1807 Actually, theres a story of a lone survivor. I think he went to other tribes and they burned him as tribute.
@@vetarlittorf1807 Perhaps another tribe came across the bodies? I would assume that the tribes might be hostile, but i would imagine they would work together from time to time?
@@vetarlittorf1807 There was at least one survivor, and he told tales of a desert demon that slaughtered his tribe. They started burning wicker men style effigies of Anakin after that.
I imagine many warrior cultures, like the Kaleesh, Wookies, Yautja, Sangheili, even Ewoks, could and would fit in well as Mandalorians.
Halo's Jiralhanae "brutes" could fit in as well, i think
@@LTMaverick27894 Perhaps, you could make an argument for things like Krogans as well, but I think some cultures like the Jiralhanae are too brutal and bloodthirsty for the Mandalorian ways, which have a lot of honor and respect and focused direction, while the Brutes literally can't stop having war with each other to the point that they lost all their technology because they couldn't stop fighting.
So maybe, but it's a bit more unlikely, they're similar to Trandoshans in that way.
@@an0rangutan I could see the occasional Krogan being seen as worthy of being Mandolorian, ones like Wrex or Grunt. Though most male krogan are shown to be inherently violent or even cruel. Personally, out of all ME races, Turians sound like the best potential Mandolorians. Not to say the more level headed Krogans wouldn’t make excellent ones as well, it’s just not often that Krogans are as levelheaded as Wrex.
@@an0rangutan If united under a singular leader like Tarturus or in recent times Atriox, the brutes, while still bloodthirsty, still follow pack mentality and by extension a warrior culture centered around your pack brothers. Escherum, the main antagonist of Halo Infinite, is one such warrior willing to fight one last fight to the bitter end than die of old age. Mandos could probably relate with that especially fringe groups like Children of the Watch.
@@an0rangutan Yeah, your right. The brutes would make better trandosans than mando's
This is PRECISELY why I absolutely adore Faloni and Favreau over the 'new trilogy', we get an expansion on what already exist in the best ways possible, none of the 'actually it was there the whole time but no one talked about it' and required books to provide exposition for and none of the 'porgs' remember those? Absolutely pointless, at least use them more often within the Star Wars universe as something more than just Merchandise.
Precisely*
What's wrong with Porgs? They're cute and fluffy and were a way to account for the islands local puffin population, which couldn't be moved off set due to their endangered status and the status of the island as a nature reserve, they are basically just fancy CGI set dressing, I mean yeah they don't do much, but did the various characters in the background if the originals do much? No, they were there to make the galaxy feel alive, same as the porgs
@@magoshighlands4074 Yeah... of the vast multitude of things you could complain about in TLJ, Porgs are near the bottom of the list.
The Tusker aren't "good now". There's always good and bad people, and some who are in between. Just like Qui Gon and Padme are good humans, there's pure evil humans like Palpatine and Tarkin
Perfectly said
Correct the only now part is they're highlighting their perspective and their culture. So now with the full image we can see the truth that things aren't so black and white there's plenty of grey.
Fuck this is a story about Boba Fett being a good guy...Who was 100% Lawful Evil in the OG films. It's all about moral nuance and seeing things from Non-Jedi Non-Chosen One pov's.
No D00d Tuskens are based and sandpilled! Don't be anti muslim!
Exactly👍
Just like you get through to Jawas by bargaining and negotiating, you get through to Tuskens by proving strength and honor in combat.
That is a great analogy!
In the past, when we only saw the original trilogy movies, we only saw the Tuskan Raiders depicted as violent savages. Thanks to the Expanded Universe and the recent series, we now see them as more sympathetic tribal societies. It’s this kind of nuanced storytelling that I really love about Star Wars.
Everything depends from an certain point of view
Yeah. I think it was Tales from Mos Eisly that pointed out the moisture farms suck up the water vapors that the tribes need.
Looking like e.g. USA and Canada treated Natives, Australia their aboriginal inhabitants in the same time when movies were done... I'm not surprised. But I was shocked that e.g. residential schools still existed in 80ties etc. (I thought is the history LONG TIME before my birth). Actually, watching TV with some actions, like even last year in USA, I'm still shocked. And again, not even a bit surprised or need to think "why" Tuskens were treated and described the way that way...
It is not about whether they are now good bad, but that we can see beyond what the people of Tatoine said, which is not a lie either (let's not forget what happened to Shmi Skywalker), see their culture and how they lived in the sands of tatoine, what's more, I think that din would not think twice if they did something to grogu.
The Mandalorian and Book of Boba Fett are “Westerns in Space”. The Tusken Raiders fit the “Noble Savage” trope like Native Americans did in many Western films/shows (for good or ill)
Just replace Tusken Raiders with Native Americans in any scene and it will feel like it was peeled right out of an old western
True, though there’s less racial overtones in this case, as the Tusken are literally a different species. I do agree that these series have very much felt like westerns, or possibly old samurai stories (more in The Mandolorian’s case. Google Lone Wolf and pup if you’re curious.)
Some of the best wild west movies were inspired by Japanese movies
@@darkwarwick And vice versa. If I remember right, some Samurai films like Seven Samurai were inspired by westerns. Of course Seven Samurai also inspired the famous western Magnificent Seven, so it’s kinda circular.
Wouldn't that still be kinda problematic considering the movies always depict them as mindless, bloodthirsty savages?
They represent any tribal people, borrowing oceanic, Native American, and Saharan traditions
Kinda weird how i felt nothing when kylo dies, but i legit felt sad about those tuskens killed by the pyke train
Kylo killed innocents yet died of his own accord in noble sacrifice, The Tuskens killed were innocents killed without a fair fight prior to Boba's actions they stood no chance at winning or fighting back. So yeah you can feel different emotions between the two because they're different people with different causes of death.
@@flamesofchaos13 no, Kylo is a badly developed character.
Kylo was evil why you should feel bad for him?
I seem to recall that one of the Tusken's major taboos is exposed skin. The Mandalorians... don't. Ergo, even if by mistake, the Tuskens are not enraged by fully armored people and more willing to trade or communicate with them.
Then how do you explain them bonding with Boba Fett despite his exposed skin?
@@vetarlittorf1807 well maybe the matching similarities between the tusken raiders and mladron cultures kind bridged the gap a bit when boba fett actions showed the tusken raiders that maldorn culture is similar to tusken culture enough that the tuskens felt a sense of fellowship! well while tusken exposed skin is a taboo but only in mostly public interactions for the most part!
@@vetarlittorf1807 initial contact was in armor? IDK. I'm not a writer for the show
@@vetarlittorf1807 he saved the little ones life by killing a monster, gaining the tribes respect. Did you miss the first episode
@@kylesawkon4074 exactly i imagine saving the life of one of their children would make anyone significantly more willing to treat him with respect.
The John Jackson Miller novel Kenobi (bearing a Lucasfilm, Ltd. 2013 copyright, so canon or legends…let the reader judge for themselves) explores Tusken culture deeper than most SW content I’ve experienced. The Tuskens knew who the Jedi were and many clans held the Jedi with a fair amount of respect. There was a paradigm shift between the human settlers (aka moisture farmers) and the Tusken that’s noted but not explored in the novel. The shift seems to favor the humans. It’s only stated that the shift was related to something involving the Lars family after Clegg’s wife Shimi was kidnapped by a particular tribe, a tribe that was wiped out by an unknown assailant. The Tusken tribe that is featured in the novel spends most of their efforts raiding the settlers and their farms in a particular area and is ruled by a female chieftain, a virtually unheard of in Tusken culture. She is a progressive thinker and a pragmatic actor for a Tusken; she actually has a limited Basic vocabulary that she speaks in her trying to meet humans partway in the interest of providing for her tribe’s survival. ObiWan picks up on her progressive & pragmatic sensibilities. In demonstrating that he is a powerful warrior and in making the effort to communicate and understand her and her tribe, he earns her respect and a fair amount of trust. She even has her people steal a moisture vaporator because their U&C water supplies have dried up. Survival of her tribe is job one for her, so this “blasphemous” act of employing a vaporator is now acceptable because what good is observing the old ways if no one is around to observe them. As noted, the Tuskens who respect true warriors, regardless of their origin and demonstrate adaptability in the light of huge changes are the ones that will survive.
I find it really interesting and nice that the tusken raiders get some well deserves development in their culture and overall way of life. In canon, that has probably been one of the least expanded parts of Star Wars.
I think you forgot that Boba's flashbacks with the Tuskens started about 5 years before The Mandalorian. It's very likely that Boba's presence among the Tuskens is was taught them basic hand sugnal trade language and shifted them towards a new structure. Like Dinn told the young bounty hunter, "they had to negotiate/pay for safe passage." That's something Boba established.
Mandos and Tuskens are 2 of a kind part of the few who understood how to preserve their cultures and how it clashed with the wider galaxy
When the hyperspace routes were made there wasn't much water out that way. Tatooine was mostly water planet. The water was stripped. Imagine the gungans after 20,000 of turning Naboo into a desert.
I’ve always liked when EU stuff would dive into the Tuskens’ culture so I’ve really been a fan of their recent appearances in these shows.
I think it can't be understated that the title of Chapter 2 had "tribes" in it and the leader of Boba's tribe mentioned other tribes and how many of them were simply violent. To lump all "Tuscan Raiders" into one group is to miss the point entirely that this show is making. I guess I have to spell it out. Even if you've had bad experiences with people of a certain look or culture it doesn't mean that you can stereotype them the next time you run into someone that appears to be the same. The Tuscan Raiders are made up of many tribes that are not so much like each other.
EDIT: I wrote this before finishing your video. My apologies. You mentioned all of this. Props. Good day sir!
Didn't this same "tribe" abuse slaves in the first episode? Guess they were just "misunderstood."
@@badlaamaurukehu Abuse? They weren't tortured he was only attacked when he ran they didn't touch the Rodian. Then made them dig for melons was their "hard labor". Slavery yeah but not abusive.
@@flamesofchaos13 lmao, "I only whip my slaves when they run away, I'm just a slaver but not a abusive one" his point still stands
I glanced at an online article saying that Book of Boba Fett makes Anakin’s slaughter of the Tusken Raiders unforgivable and just laughed. There are many different tribes and the tribe Anakin killed were savage torturers who had it coming.
They were animals.
Doesn't this tribe have slaves?
Killing defenseless women and children is what made Anakin’s slaughter of tuskens and Jedi younglings unforgivable. Except that he also spent a quarter century locked into a walking iron lung and had all his extremities cut off. He suffered for his sins and was redeemed when he sacrificed his life to save the Galaxy. We don’t need a Boba Fett tv show for us to know how horrible Anakin’s acts were.
@@badlaamaurukehu From what we’ve seen, this tribe doesn’t brutally torture their slaves.
@@russellharrell2747 they were animals and Anakin slaughtered them like animals. Nothing wrong with that. Also from his point of view the younglings were evil.
Taking a cue from the real world, I’d say that some tribes were likely more aggressive and troublesome, and probably a number of bandit bands and outcasts as well.
It was pretty cool when Dyn Jaryn called out to the Tuskens in their own language.
Anakin, “I hate them!”
Boba, “Hold my black melon milk.”
What also might play a role is the fact that Mandalorians are skilled warriors, and the Tuskens aren't much of a threat comparatively. The moister farmers were vulnerable and therefore feared the Tuskens. But for most Mandalorians they could easily taken on a bunch of tusken raiders. So when a Mandalorian and Tusken meet, if a party is scared of the other, it's usually going to be the Tuskens. The Mandalorian's bravery allows them not to react, and the Tusken in turn would probably respect that (if they aren't immediately hostile).
Truth although I wouldn't say that Boba, in their first encounter looked especially intimidating. Meeting someone completely different you should show respect and try to earn respect. Most of colonialists, real or SW clearly lacked and still lack this attitude.
Please correct me if I’m wrong. I thought I once read that Tuskens were once a separate race/species. Over the years different races/species joined the Tuskens either by choice or enslavement. Now, being a Tusken is more about the culture than the race. Similar to you do not have to be from Mandalore to be a Mandalorian. At the end of BOBF ep.2, you can now say that Boba Fett is a Tusken. Maybe that’s why Din and Boba gets along with them. They share the importance of a person’s cultural background.
Pretty much. From what I can gather, there's still a lot of Ghorfa (original non-human Tuskens) among them, with nearly as many human Tuskens, who seem to be the vast majority of people that are integrated into the tribes.
As to what the Ghorfa Tusken look like, judging from KOTOR stuff and other depictions (not sure if still canon, but honestly who cares), they essentially look like humanoid hairless cats, just with a flatter face and lacking the cat ears. Makes sense then that they hate the Jawas so much, since they're supposed to look rat-like under their hoods.
Again, thank you for adding more pep and enthusiasm to your delivery
It’s so messed up basically an ancient race of aliens bombed their planet so bad and tatoine is literally all sand it’s called glassing a planet and it used to be more like Naboo asw but the two main species are now the jawas and tusken raiders
yeah i remember reading that in the old republic mmo and i was in shock at the revelation.
Very well said. I knew it all along & it’s so great to have this idea explained so clearly.
The Tuskens were always friendly and approachable it's other people that treated them wrong
I've always wondered what a Tusken looks like without their covering that's taboo for them to remove. The fact that they adopt orphans of whatever species and intrinsically care for their banthas shows a much more advanced, structured society and not just the vicious raiders portrayed with a knack for torture.
They’re definitely not friendly but they do respect strength so of course they get along with any mandalorian
In a way they’re alike. They’re warriors. Have close knit ties through Clans/ tribes. Can be open to outsiders joining. I’d actually like to see a tusken joining the mandalorian. Though the language barrier would be difficult.
It would be as one of the original tenants for the Resol'nare was speak the language of the Mandalorians
I'd have to go back and check but I swear there was a line in the second episode of the Book of Boba Fett that implied Tatooine was previously a flourishing planet with vast oceans. Quiet possibly like Earth. And that the Tusken Raiders lived through and needed to adapt as the seas dried up.
If so, this would explain why they don't have any adaptations for living on a desert planet.
Yeah, but I think thats another great Thing. That comes from the EU. Dave and Favreau take much from EU, which the fans Loved, and Put it Back into Canon. Look how well theire works in Star wars do and how Bad the true Disney Things do. Disney didn't realise how much the fanbase Loved the Legends stuff and threw it all over
Yup EU had it like a jewel world. I believe ot was either the old sith empire or the rakatans that ravaged tattooine. Probably the rakatans
To add to that in Din Djarin's case he knows the Tusken language which helped out a great deal, but it is indeed interesting especially in Boba Fett's case where the mutual warrior's spirit comes into play.
It is more that the tusken raiders were depicted as just savages who constantly attack "innocent" people (which in a movie setting, was useful to helping the main character move along in the story). We are not getting to see them a little bit more as actually a race that isn't actually just violent but has its own way of life. They see those "innocents" as invaders to their lands. The reason I think we see these bounty hunters (that happen to be mandalorian because of the show itself) as being able to communicate with them is that the bounty hunters can use them to their own advantage and so it actually helps if they get a more interesting backstory then violent savages (I think it also makes it that much better when we consider anakin killing a whole tribe of them in the movies, we can now see them more than just violent savages that can't be reasoned with)
always a great analysis
i love the progress on the beard
I know what we got in terms of who and what the tuskins were or how they were portrayed, but to assume that all are like that as we have seen in Mando and Boba series, makes a lot of sense, they are an isolated tribe that when strangers are around they act out against those potential enemies, it is expected but what they have given us is a nice change and direction to show us another side of a species that are not the way they are portrayed. I wonder how the Tuskins will play into w/ and along side Bobafett in terms of having an army or a type of defense force in a way.
In many ways the Mandalorians are very much the same as the Tuskins, while mandos have in the past and current will take in other species and it would be an interesting dynamic in uniting these Tuskins or taking them off world, to Mandalorian locations and work as and as one.
it makes sense they could communicate as well as they do both being masked cultures a sign language would help communication alot
I'm not surprised. If a Jedi can get along with a tribe of Tuskan Raders, surely a Mandalorian can too
Open-minded and Honorable and Pragmatic Warriors...All three cultures have them. Though they also have less open-minded gun-ho fools too. But Din, Boba and Kenobi are no fools.
Its good to see the Tuskens get a better light on them, from kotor people can interact with them and I heard there's a Jedi that joined with them.
I used to think the Tuskens were just raging savages who killed and tortured anyone who wasn’t them, anyone who would dare cross their path. I like how both the Mandalorian and TBOBF both “humanize” them, giving them personalities and making them really likable.
Theres also games like Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic that humanizes and explains alot of their plight to the player. Czerka and other corporations/settlements like it can be seem more like Western Nations encroaching on an indigenous population and pushing them out of resources, territory, and straight up murdering populations.
They're animals! And I killed them like animals!
Well they did rape anikin’s mom to death.
@@garystewart2355 I don’t think they raped her, I think it was just torture my guy.
@@MalikJenkinsPrude Butt torture
Idk the lore reason but it’s really to make mando seem more badass, like he’s “been around the block” so much he knows how to communicate with tuskens and gain their trust. They obviously are doing that “outsider joins tribe” trope with boba, I think it’s pretty cool. Maybe not how id imagine boba interacting with tuskens but still cool
Tuskens recognize the Mandalorians have strength and vice versa so they greet each other with respect
Please make a video where the galactic republic with the jedi attack earth
Pretty much the same I came up with after watching the episode.
Hostile tribes that went out to kill and torture people got whiped out in retalliation.
tribes that stayed hidden and chased people off their borders at worst managed to stay around since no effort to whipe em was needed.
Good video :)
Also,
can we all admire how cute that crocodile dog in the episode was :3
I want one xD
Thus why I prefer SW series opposed to Star War's films. The films 2 hour format doesn't serve the universe, characters, nor story like an episodic series can.
The films depict a miniscule view but Star War's has a vast universe amazing universe spanning thousands of yrs.
Star Wars is a mythological goldmine. The Clone Wars, SW Rebels, The Mandalorian, & BOBF are a testament to it.
I always figured it was an “earn respect, get respect” kind of situation. Boba was a prisoner until he saved the child Tusken from the Jason and the argonauts monster, let the kid take credit for the kill which earned him water from the chief. Over time Boba showed the Tuskens he means them no harm and has skills that he can contribute to the tribe. The Tuskens have _every_ reason to distrust offworlders because they take for themselves and contribute nothing. It has gone through Tusken legend that the offworlders and their machines were what caused the oceans to dry up, so the Tuskens are naturally hostile to any offworlders as a rule because offworlders are usually hostile towards Tuskens (if i had a barrel full of snakes, but only one is poisonous, I’m not putting my hand in that barrel).
All of the occasions that a Tusken encounters an offworlder that is not hostile and tries to help towards a common goal, the tuskens have been wary but not hostile, if that offworlder also seeks no reward for their help then that adds extra brownie points.
The Mandalorian code of honour goes a long way to acting in a way that would endear you to a Tusken, the nomadic warrior vibe is probably why the only people who have ever been on speaking terms with the Tuskens are Mandalorians, but that status isn’t exclusive (there was a Tusken Jedi before the Clone Wars).
It’s always about mutual respect, common goals and selflessness with the Tuskens. Din Djarin managed to get the humans and Tuskens to work together because _both_ groups were terrorised by a Greater Krait Dragon, neither group could handle it alone, and the humans had no need for Krait Pearls or Krait meat. They worked together because in return for the Krait carcass, the Tuskens would let the humans continue moisture farming.
Boba saved a Tusken child, stole speeder bikes, taught the Tuskens to ride and stopped a train full of water for the Tuskens and all he asked for in return was to not die. For this, the Tuskens accepted him into the tribe.
I really like the idea of "friendly tusken" on the side of Boba fett... They could provide a great improvement of Bobas Organisation and also really give him some sort of man power... But I think his main Smuggler Kollektiv should consist of something else... Like gamerroneans (Don't know how they're spelled... The pig guards of Jabba) or even a few mandos that have hidden over the years
All in all great video and keep up the great work
I figured it was because of the specific tribes, like some tribes hating everyone non tusken and others not. KOTR kinda touched on this idea and i'm glad to see it carried on here in the show.
In Book of Boba Fett 2nd episode, Boba mentions the Tuskens use to have a huge society, until the "Great Sea" I believe he says, dried up. So they weren't always small gangs, but were once a large society
I think that in both cultures, among other things that if you show weakness or fear, that they respond hostile to it, as they think these traits are contagious. For example, there are accounts of native Americans who would inflict horrible torture on a warrior prisoner from an enemy tribe to test how well he could maintain his composure. If he passed, they would trust his words, and potentially even integrate him to their community. As horrific as it may sound to our modern sensibilities, these trials were essential in their minds to establish confidence of trustworthiness. This is something i can definitely see Mandolorian and Tuskan people being able to mutually understand. Mandolorians, though much more technically advanced than the Tuskans still do not have much of a safety net for the people who slide through the cracks of good Mando values! :)
As horrific as it sounds for someone - punishment in Europe for e.g. such trivial "crime" like stealing load of bread because of starving was much worse. For me, still more horrific are "civilized" white soldiers, cutting out, with their swords, unborn Native Americans babies from their mothers' bellies...
@@shawiael4259 there is that too! Just realize white cultures do not have now, nor have they ever had a monopoly on those kinds of atrocities!
@@budahbaba7856 Do not need to "realize", was in it a bit "professionally", but I changed the field. But you do not need to look at Dakota tribes custom of torturing the prisoners of war to see the examples. Look for, e.g. RSA - government and victims just exchanged "color" but atrocities stay the same... :( Year ago our student told as how she is worried about her brother who stay back in her homeland - how and if he will be alive next week - no white "civilizators" (I know, I made the word) there. My point was that talking about barbarian customs people usually talk exactly about Dakota's torture stake or scalping (actually invented by whites) and it's starting to be a bit boring (annoying...) And no, I'm not Dakota or Native (although, as a little girl I wanted to be :D) And geez, I'm so proud of myself - when one time, as a girl, on Tricon I met guys in Tuskens' costumes (I saw 3 originals but for some reason didn't know much about this race) - I checked who they are and really liked them (not these two boys, the race). Well probably my anthropological instinct worked - they are showed so bad from the same reason early westerns showed First Nations badly (well, I'm also coming back to NA tribes, there is really something in it...🤔) At least now, after 2nd episode people do not look at me like... well I was mentally ill Tusken? 🤣
I suspect/hope the flashback scenes will end up seeing Tuskens in Mandalorian armor.
There's an explanation for that in episode 2 where there's different clans of tuskan's,some of whom are violent and savage.
Do you think Durge might appear in The Book of Boba Fett or the Mandalorian Season 3?
probs not tho he may appear in ahsoka hired by GA thrawn to hunt her down.
I'd like to see you do a series on who would win a gladiatorial tournament between characters like Black Krrsantan vs. Grevious
It's like the space stage in Spore. During the space age, planet nations with the same philosophy receive a relationship bonus.
I would love Din becoming Mandalor and joining Boba on capturing the Outer Rim and recruiting Tusken Raiders as the old Mandaöorians did with worthy species.
Both cultures even forbid taking of their masks in some sort.
It makes sense that each tribe would be different. Some are more brutal than others
Respect for their ways has a lot to do with it. The Mandolorians respect the Tuskins territory, culture and warrior discipline. Other offworlders haven't even tried.
I'm assuming it depends on the tribe according to the boba Fett show there's various tribes so they'll probably have various culture within each tribe
Depends on which tribes

With friends like these who needs enemies
I’ve always had a soft spot for Tusken Raiders. I really like their symbiotic relationship they have with the Bantha
Species in Star Wars with cultures similar to the Mandalorians we've seen so far:
1 The Tusken Raiders
2 The Geonosians
If these three are less aggressive toward outsiders, things might turned out better for them and the rest of the galaxy.
How is Geonosian culture similar to Mandalorians?
@@flyer3154 They have the warrior culture similar to the Mandalorians.
@@lerneanlion how is it similar? Mandalorians accepted others to join their ranks, Mandos are clan-based unlike Geonosians who are hive-based species and Mandos have a code that they follow unlike Geonosians. I don't see how they have similar warrior cultures
@@flyer3154 But they can get along, right? If they earned their respects like Count Dooku, of course.
@@lerneanlion most species can get along with others
can you do a video on the backstory of the galactic Star cruiser hotel?
Years of being hunted and massacred by Vader probably made them more passive, or only the passive ones survived. Like the goblin slayer says : “ a good goblin is a goblin that never comes out of his hole “
'Are Tuskens friendly?'
No
They're dead
I thought the sand peoples back story revealed in the first KOTOR game was so sad and noble. They are if anything survivors.
ive always loved warrior civilizations, especially if their culture revolves around respect and honor
A team up between Mandalorians, Tusken, Trandoshans and Kaleesh would give the galaxy some strong headaches.
Droids would be the last thing Wookiees shall worry about
A 5 year gap needs to be explained between Boba's escape from the sarlak to mando season 1 episode 5 the gun slinger.
Never thought episode 5 of Mando season 1 would be this finish line between Boba's story and Mando in the timeline
I think Tusken raiders are a very interesting topic
Their culture and history should be getting more fleshed out, but thats exactly what the mandalorian and the book of boba fett are doing
The Tuskins and Jawas are the indigenous people. Changing and adapting in different ways. The Banthas and other animals had the same challenges.
both the mandalorian and book of boba fett (that is a long title), seem to be hinting suggesting that the tuskan raiders could be interacted with similar to how you could interact with them in KotOR1 and they may be thinking of brining back the history of tatooine from that game involving the infinite empire
As a first world nation individual I heavily vibe with the Tuscan Raiders. They live on the land, each are individual and unique based on their ideology and distrust of outsiders.
As a Scottish feller my family is my clan my grandpa and grandma are the leaders the sense of family and togetherness it’s basic creatures needs
The Mandolarians creed have been wandering the galaxy a long time. They may have spent time on Tatooine. It may have been a base of operation were Djarin learned to speak Tusken. He has had previous contact with them and traded with them. Djarin seemed to know Tatooine well. The Way may stipulated that they treat all creatures with dignity and peace. Djarin only killed when forced to and when adversary relation was established. Boba Fett seemed to be of the same mindset.
He'll yeah . Favorite host 🤘
This actually reminds me of an even older example of what the Tuskan Raiders were really about. That being way back in the original Knights of the Old Republic game.
In it, you travel to Tatooine in search of the Star Forge, and along the way, there are a few missions you can do there that involve a Tuskan clan near Mos EIsley. One involving Mission and another involving the Czerka Corp. Funny enough, to deal with them in a good/lightsided way, and to also learn of this clans culture, you need to bring a translator. The only one available however... is the heavily darkside leaning Assassin Droid, aka, HK-47. So yes, you need an evil character to help you do something good. lol
Though, doing it the good/lightside way, you learn that the Tuskans aren't necessarily evil, they just really don't like technology.
i personally really like that there finally giving an in depth look at the tuskens i was never a huge fan of there one note portrayal as always an enemy though there is something im curious about how do they keep replenishing there numbers so fast when ever we see them tons of them end up dead yet the size of the tribe never seems to shrink also i wonder if they wrap up there babies or if that happens at a certain age we never see there babies which also makes me wonder where they are but mostly i just want to know more about them
Still remember the good times of KOTOR with the Tusken plot.
How cool would it be to have a young Tusken taken under Din's wing as like a Mandoloian squire, he could get a baskar helmet inspired by the traditional head wrappings and goggles etc. I'd love to see a Tusken Raider charachter get some love
well real recognizes real as they say.
My personal theory is that the Tuskens in Mando thought Djin was Boba or at least looked like him, thus viewing him as an honourable warrior, hence why they spared him.
I appreciate how Allen seems like a genuine fan of Star Wars in these videos with his familiarity of the lore and well-articulated assessment of new material. ᵁⁿˡⁱᵏᵉ ᴮʳⁱᵗⁱˢʰ ᴮᵉⁿ ᵃⁿᵈ ˢᵗᵃʳᵍᵃᵗᵉ...
Tatooine wasn't always a desert planet, the tuskens didn't necessarily come from off world, they were more likely a species living on the planet before it became a desert planet
In the 3rd or forth episode of the book of boba fett I got a little emotional when the speeder bike raiders wiped out the tribe of Tusken raiders that accepted boba
Hello there friends welcome back to another episode of Generation Tech my name is Allen
The big cheef guy did say when he was talking to boba that other tusken raider tribes survive by killing which explains this tribes more cultured less ravenous ways. This is probably why they have different robes to show that they are not as savage.
answer based on the title of the video, NO at least to most people, are they friendly to Boba? well that one tribe is and they may convince others to accept him, there have also been a few Jedi over the centuries that have learned their ways and been tolerated or accepted (i cant remember if it was Raven or the outlander that had the option to form an alliance with the Tuskens?) but for the most part they still see everyone else on the planet as interlopers (and their right) and it isnt helped that most people on the planet dont see them as People only verman to be exterminated.
ied be willing to bet that it was outsiders that started the hostility with the sandpeople that's still ongoing to this day (in the setting) you can see it now some mining corporation thats landed on tatooine to exploit ore deposits and the local savages are just in the way so orders are given to shoot on sight and from there it just gets worse and worse.
He there. Can you do a video on why trains are the best option in a universe with freight space ships?
Agreed.
Before this show, I saw TR as annoying scavengers/savage. This show really made you feel for them. Loved it! Very interesting take.
I figured it was because of the warrior nature. if we cant kill or capture you then we will respect you train you and teach you hand waving gestures so we can shoot the shit together between battles
They both in a way lost their homes.
What I'm hearing is the tuskens have several beliefs based on who's leading them and they relate to the mandalorians
