cool so then all the clones were just expendable black dudes who were pretty much only valued as a resource to be consumed
Didn't they say awhile back that karl urban was going to be boba or was I mistaken.
There were rumors awhile ago that they would kill off Boba Fett and have someone else wear the costume and call themselves Boba Fett. Its pretty dumb though.
[QUOTE=Vodkavia;48880375]I hope he keeps his helmet on and someone who sounds like his original actor does the voice work.
These political agenda retcons get old fast[/QUOTE]
It's not a retcon if Boba Fett died in that sarlacc and someone else took up his name.
I thought he already had an origin story in Episode 2...

How did they get his outfit out of the sarlacc then?
[QUOTE=Svinnik;48880417]How did they get his outfit out of the sarlacc then?[/QUOTE]
Hell if I know, all that we know in new canon is that someone got the outfit out of it and sold it.
[QUOTE=Svinnik;48880417]How did they get his outfit out of the sarlacc then?[/QUOTE]
Maybe he will fall in and find his jetpack?
[QUOTE=woolio1;48880406]I thought he already had an origin story in Episode 2...[/QUOTE]
Yea and he should be a Maori actor.
Didn't he escape out of the pit later? That's what I heard at least.

In the old EU. Its not canon anymore.

All we know about Boba Fett's fate post RotJ
[QUOTE]"I have a way of sussing things out. I know that things are changing. Not just in the galaxy, but here at home, too. The Hutts still haven't shaken out who's next up to fill Jabba's throne -- if you can call that flat slab of his a throne. Seems like this might be a new day for Tatooine."
"Yes, we certainly hope so," Adwin idly responds, mostly ignoring the man's small-talk prattle. He's happy Cobb got him in here but now wishes the man would just leave him alone. Adwin spies a large, long box on the floor. He whips off the ratty cloth that's covering it and --
Oh, my.
[B]From the box, he withdraws a helmet. Pitted and pocked, as if with some kind of acid. But still-- he raps his knuckles on it . The Mandalorians knew how to make armor, didn't they? "Look at this," he says, holding it up. "Mandalorian battle armor. Whole box. Complete set, by the looks of it. Been through hell and back. I think my boss will appreciate this."
[/B]
"I actually think I might take that home with me," Cobb says.
"I think not," Adwin says, turning around, the helmet tucked under his arm. The blaster at his hip suddenly feels heavy, pendulous. Eager to be drawn. A strange sensation, that. Adwin feels like he's really getting into the spirit of this planet. He's never had to shoot a man before.[/QUOTE]
Man Karl Urban would be awesome
[QUOTE=Damjen;48880390]It's not a retcon if Boba Fett died in that sarlacc and someone else took up his name.[/QUOTE]
In the old EU I remember someone impersonated Boba after the sarlacc incident and then the real Boba tracked him down and killed him in a really messed up way. I don't remember the specifics but it was something like paralyzing him with nerve toxin and then making his jetpack explode.
[QUOTE=General;48880454]Man Karl Urban would be awesome[/QUOTE]
Judge Fett
I was really hoping they'd get Temuera Morrison for Fett. Jango was probably my favorite part of episode II, even though he had such a minimal role, and Boba is a straight-up clone of Jango, so there's that.
Morrison is pretty much the only guy I can picture [I]working[/I] as Fett, y'know? Given how popular Boba turned out to be, I really hope they don't go the route of "he died and someone took his armor and his name." It'd be awesome if they kept that bit where the real one killed the faker, but I don't have high hopes.

That'd be good, until they rerecord all the original boba fett lines with his voice.

I just think it's really funny that they think of using Michael B. Jordan, especially after Fan4stick.

Could you please spoiler tag this? The book has been barely out a month.
Also, relating to that passage I think [sp]Boba Fett escaped the pit, but has either chosen to retire or chose to redo his look.[/sp].
If the idea is they wanted an American sounding guy to match the OG voice instead of someone with a Maori accent and that he's going to go the Judge Dredd route and wear the helmet the whole movie, then I can understand.
Otherwise, why not bring back Temuera Morrison or someone else of Maori descent?
Can we get someone who can actually act? and actually do rough and grizzly like a bounty hunter should be not some prep boy.

Now I'm wondering what we might get if Manu Bennett had played Fett.
What about Temuera Morrison? Consider bobba is a clone of jango he would be the same actor.
[QUOTE=Sir Whoopsalot;48881226]Now I'm wondering what we might get if Manu Bennett had played Fett.[/QUOTE]
The idea of Manu Bennett playing Fett just made my face light up. If for some reason Temuera Morrison doesn't work [sp]Arguably to old[/sp], Manu Bennett is a perfect alternative.
Who cares? The mystery of Boba Fett was half the attraction. Now we know he was a clone, Bossk was his mentor and him, Bossk and Dengar had been a team since the middle of the Clone Wars and that's that.
If MBJ takes the armour and all that we've already seen his face assuming he doesn't do a Dredd, he'll be some young guy who wears Bobas armor and might do a cool thing or 2. But at the end of the day hes just gonna be some guy pretending to be Boba(who he didn't even kill) and who cares about some thief stealing the most famous bounty hunters armor? Just hire a kiwi and show him surviving the Sarlaac somehow or maybe a have a prequel with the squad.
sooo
what makes him qualified to cast as boba fett really?
i can't take him seriously when he plays in serious roles, he doesn't have the accent either
hows he different from any other guy wanting to play as him? just get morrison to play as him
what kind of story arc is him dying and someone else becoming him anyways, thats pretty ludicrous to wear mandalorian armor and suddenly become the galaxies deadliest bounty hunter.
I'd honestly wouldn't mind if the guy who played Jango Fett returned to play Boba
Well Temuera Morrison is voicing Boba Fett in Battlefront, and he already dubbed him in the OT Releases.
