    Impossibly ancient sith Lord spending millennia using the force to escape a sarlacc and arriving just as the empire falls and the new republic is trying to start would have been so much better than “somehow… Palpatine returned”

        IMO Boba’s escape precludes the sarlacc from being able to contain a sith lord.

        All canon/noncanon stories essentially have Boba blowing his way out with thermal detonators and/or subsequently being spat out.

        I feel like the only reason that method of escape wouldn’t be common knowledge is because of how rare sarlaccs are to begin with.

    Wouldn’t you die of starvation/dehydration long before being digested, leaving no conciousness to absorb?

      The absorbtion process provides food and water, you’re essentially part of the beasts body tissue.
