Boba Fett Is Way Too Old: The Book Of Boba Fett

Hope everyone is living happy in this crazy time. Is there any plausible reason why Boba is played by an old man? Let me know in the comments. Did I miss anything? If you enjoyed this video or at least got a laugh, throw it a like. Subscribing and sharing the video is always a big help and will make you look 10 years younger. And hit the bell thing to make sure you don't miss a video. Cheers!

I know a lot of your videos show hate torwards Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, but I actually liked the movie. Honestly I’m not big on movies or Star Wars and I don’t really know what the movies are about in the franchise… this is the only one I’ve ever seen really, but I thought it was a pretty good movie. I liked the cinematography in a lot of areas, and just the unique variety of it all. The different locations and CGI was just incredible, and also the music was outstanding. Do you know if they are they gonna make any more movies? An episode X would be cool to make, it could show us where Rey skywalker is now.

Growing up, Boba Fett was one of my favorite characters from anything, and the main reason why I watched EMPIRE STRIKES BACK more than the other films. I had his action figure and his LEGO minifig and the Slave I, and I always made him a badass when I played with my toys. This is not how I imagined Boba Fett lol Was hyped to see him return in Mando, and I honestly like Temuera Morrison as Boba, but this show was so hit and miss. Boba should be cold and deadly, violently taking over Tatooine one gang at a time, with Mando being the nice one.

[@MTV2O2O]

@@hanburgundy4317 Honestly, another issue is why he just took over a section of Tatooine, and stopped. Jabba the Hutt ruled more than that, he had entire Star systems under his influence. The Obi-Wan show was already going to be 90% on Tatooine, this show (Boba’s show) could have gone to other planets like Nal Hutta, Corellia, or Falleen.

A show about Boba going around being ruthless and hunting bounties would have been the perfect Boba Fett show.

[@gaiusjuliuscaesar9902]

One thing I remember about seeing Boba Fett for the first time, was that his physique was not bulky. He was rather thin. It made him stick out in comparison to Vader whose height and width was imposing. Vader was a warlord, but Boba was a predator. Hungry and lean, and he carried himself in a way that fit that, being cold and calculating. He spoke only a few words, and when he did it was memorable. He never took off his helmet even when at one of Jabba's parties, and it was better that way. Somehow, this bounty hunter ended up becoming the Bubba Fett of TBOBF. He never wears his helmet, he does nothing but talk and bathe, and the justification for him changing is a near death experience, and spending time with people who refuse to have their faces be seen by others. The idea that Boba had not had any near death experiences at this point is laughable at best. He stared down Vader. Someone willing to do that isn't going to be shaken in their resolve by anything. Instead, he gets out of the pit, collapses in the sand, and spends most of the time throughout the series collapsing or falling asleep.

Never forget that the Tuskans kidnapped and tortured Shmi Skywalker in order to gauge whether the population near them was worth raiding due to an ancient ritual; as the more resilient the person, the less likely that they would have had a good raid and they’ve been doing it for thousands of years.

[@hawkward957]

Some characters just DO NOT work as a main protagonists. The quiet, mysterious, morally dubious, faceless secondary character is kinda hard to follow around for a story. It seems like they felt they had to fundamentally change his character to make him work as the MAIN character. He talks more. He CONSTANTLY takes his helmet off. Even his moral compass changes. Reminds me of what they did with Snake Eyes: the mysterious masked ninja who literally CANNOT speak suddenly talks INCESSANTLY and only covers his face in the last 2 second of the movie 😂

[@horhay3608]

Mando is a watered down version of Boba.

[@ironcladnomad5639]

I agree and disagree. It's important to understand when your character isn't interesting enough to carry a story... but then you have to figure if that presence and mystique can be maintained if that character is nonetheless the most consistent and persistent one in the story. Something called "The Book of Boba Fett" doesn't need to follow the flashbacks, rehabilitation, and ins and outs of the character; it can be a collection of shorter stories told from other perspectives, other characters who tangle with Fett on a variety of levels.

[@finn4364]

crazy thing is, it seems really easy to make him the mysterious boss of some crime organization working from the shadows, if they want him to change from his bounty hunting ways, but sry he has to be a good guy now so no, also he just gets everything gifted for free so we dont have to explain it

[@destinyhntr]

The issue is, with good writing, Boba would have been an interesting main character because he wouldn't have followed the good guy plot. However, because disney just knows how to do the same story over and over again, they didn't bother trying something new and making Boba interesting. He had a ton of potential and absolutely zero of it was used.

[@Edax_Royeaux]

Vader used to be the mysterious, morally dubious, faceless secondary character. Tarkin was the main antagonist in A New Hope so very long ago.

O highly recommend looking the story up.

[@GMMReviews]

I had a better solution for the Old Temuera Morrison problem... just don't show his face? The appeal of Boba Fett used to be that you DIDN'T see his face, he was a faceless bounty hunter, a mandalorian, the helmet WAS his identity. Hire a body double, use Temuera as the Voice Actor, and have the character be a recurring villain/anti-hero that pops up in other shows/movies, job done, easy money. But no, they NEEDED a Boba Fett show, because the fans know Boba Fett! But you can't have a kid's show be about a criminal, bounty hunter, murderer, villain, right? So change his personality completely, make him fun and goofy. You also can't have a show about a guy that wears a mask the whole time, can you? *cough* the mandalorian *cough* . So get fat 62 yro Temuera Morrison, have him barely wear the mask, and have awkward fight scenes. Great.

The problem with Star Wars is that it lost its visionaries. There is no one who has the confidence, competence, or authority to take the series in the bold new directions any franchise has to explore to stay relevant. It is now run by fans, people who enjoyed the series and know it well enough for superficial imitation, but are unable to see the deeper themes and nuances of the series enough to create something more nourishing than fan-service. I'm not convinced that they ever really understood it in a deep way.

[@wizards-themagicalconcert5048]

Finally someone who gets it. Thats exactly what I am thinking. Lucas was willing to take Star Wars further and let it evolve and infuse it with new live. Lucas talked about the Whills and the micro cosmos and the powers behind the force. Its really what Star Wars needs not driving in circles for the rest of its existence ! How boring !

I am a grown ass man with college kids. At the end of the day I can only care so much about any sort of movie series. Nevertheless, it really truly is depressing to see Disney shit all over this product. It was tough enough to deal with Jar Jar Binks at George Lucas‘s own hand, but literally every last thing Disney has done with this property makes me long for the second trilogy. And certainly the fact that Jon Favreau is affiliated with this is certainly nothing to be proud of. He should’ve pulled out once the script and casting turned out this way. As for the shrinking universe, that is so spot on. I am sick of seeing Star Wars in the desert. And I’m even more sick of people applauding it and watching it and raving about it. People that rightly Savage other movie products because they actually have critical thinking and know what they are talking about, seem to completely lose it when it comes to Star Wars. The Mandalorian had its charms. It had a little bit of dirty western feel to it that was better than anything the post Lucas team had produced. But all of that is lost in the book of Boba Fett. The awesome part is that it’s so bad that it’s virtually eliminated the collectibility of newer high-end Lego Star Wars sets. If that doesn’t tell you something, I don’t know what does.

The Hutt litter is slow, but I can somehow ignore the use of speeder levitation tech for a display of power by getting slaves to carry their bloated bodies. What I can't understand is why the sand-people ride around on banthas. I never see the bantas carrying anything heavy, or pushing down a door, or really doing anything but loping through the sand at Wal-Mart shopper speed. Elephants can stampede at a quick run, which is terrifying if you're in their path! We never see a bantha do anything but mosey along without a care in the world for haste. And again, their strength is seemingly meaningless. Banthas are strong enough to presumably wear armor. And they fucking need some! They're gunned down like the barn sized targets they are. A rider sitting on top of one, clearly visible above the dunes, would be a similarly easy target for anyone really. I won't even speculate how much water those things need to drink. I can't see how they're even remotely practical.

[@markusfreund6961]

That, and never mind their heavy, dark-brown fur (which, looking at real desert animals, seems to be the perfect adaptation to that environment) or those ridiculously huge, heavy horns. I assume they just went for novelty otherworldliness back in the 70s (just like with the cantina patrons) and never asked much for plausibility. Except, of course, if Banthas were nocturnal. For cold, dark desert nights, their fur would make perfect sense, and that would also explain why they're so sluggish during the heat of day. But, again, I'm probably way overthinking this.

[@Ki_Adi_Mundi]

They don't seem useful to anybody in the universe, darth vader may be under the emperor's control but he would at least send a squad of troopers out there to deal with them.

[@TheLonelyGoomba]

I wasn't really a fan of the show. But a lot of Boba's changes make sense if you come from the perspective that he was totally and utterly done with being a Bounty Hunter prior to falling down the sarlacc pit, and didn't even want to return to that life, even if he could. Prior to the Tuskens, there's a good chance Boba was entirely self-centered in the sense he never cared about anyone else but himself. So outside of his dad, the Tuskens are the first time he's felt like he has any sense of family or belonging, even if it is flawed. This is what grows into him wanting to look after "his people" as it changes him. However, I think a big problem with this show is, in regards to the flashback is that there is no sense of the passage of time. To the viewer it really does feel like this happens over the span of like... a few weeks maybe? It's so drastic and sudden that it feels jarring. I was shocked to find out it was intended to be five years. FIVE YEARS. Nothing in the show gives any indication it was that long. So his change of personality over 5 years would make more sense. So it comes down to I suppose, poor writing and time management in what they prioritized showing. Heck, even just having a "young" looking Boba for the initial flashbacks would have helped show the passage of time. So I'm actually ok with Boba "going soft". However, I still have a ton of issues with the show. Being "soft" isn't the same as being incompetent. And Boba frankly comes off as an idiot for most of this show. Unable to do anything well. He can't fight well for most of it, can't negotiate, can't even operate his own ship properly, needs help opening a door, it goes on and on. It's for this reason I actually thought episode 2 was the best episode. Because it attempted to show WHY Boba is different and his intended transformation, it's pretty much the only episode which felt like something meaningful actually happened.

[@harrambou9468]

I loved Episode 2. Yea, him taking off the helmet on screen is annoying, let alone out in the f**king open, but aside from that, the footage with the Tusken tribe was 👌 and yea, the fight against the gang was probably the best hand-to-hand 👌

[@neocomp92]

The only reference to his frustration was Episode 4. But in the totality of the story, it doesn't feel like a turning point for Boba's story, especially in the backs of the revenge for the Tusken's murder. It needed far more fleshing out than vague flashbacks to Kamino, or the Stockholm-ish relationship with his Tusken captors-turned-tribesman. It's why the flashbacks are actually the stronger plot than the present day plot, in spite of the frustrating sparks of a decent story. But that's not saying much praise.

Here’s how I would have structured a Boba Fett show’s first episode: Yes I know you don’t care, but neither does Disney and at this point you could pick someone off the street to write a better show than these highly payed writers. Let’s use Disney’s chosen character arc of Boba becoming a more moral person, but let’s actually give a shit. Episode 1: The Exile We’re in Cloud City, following Boba as he tracks down Han. He runs into IG 88, (also hunting Han) in the bowels of the Bespin forges and kills it in a heated battle where we get to see him as a ruthless bounty hunter willing to kill other hunters to secure his pay check. It would also work with how the Mandalorian has set up IG models as formidable killing machines, to have boba just cap one off as a cold opener. We see him talk to Vader, where we get some dialogue on how Vader prefers the work of clones to other soldiers (hinting back to his days with the 501st), this would make a great crucible for the beginning of his character arc, since Boba wouldn’t like being compared to a clone because he sees himself as an individual. He then flies to Jabba’s palace with Hans carbonated body where we meet other bounty hunters and most importantly, Boba’s favourite boss. Here we can get some great dialogue between Jabba and Boba about how long Han and Bobas rivalry has been going on, and how Jabba’s best smuggler has been caught by his best hunter. Now we’ve seen Boba hunt and deliver his bounty, it’s time to see how he relaxes. And what better place to do that than the hedonistic Jabba’s palace. He flirts with a Twi’Lek who muses that he should take off his helmet, he refuses because he’s on Tatooine and not a total idiot. In this moment we can set up rival bounty hunters after his spot, who side-eye Boba. He retires to Slave 1 and receives a message from Vader; a new bounty has come in, the target is a Jedi who escaped order 66 and is living in exile on an outer rim planet. The rest of the episode follows Boba tracking the exiled Jedi, maybe with a flashback sequence to Geonisis where we’re reminded of Boba’s hatred of Jedi. He finds him hunting a creature for food in a jungle and follows him back to his home. He enters while the exiled Jedi sleeps and prepares to assassinate him, sensing him, the Jedi force pushes him into a wall and charges him. Boba uses his grapple wire to wrap around the Jedi’s legs and trip him up, sending his lightsaber clattering to the ground, he then shoots the lightsaber multiple times. The Jedi watches in complete dismay and realises the fights basically over at this point. Just before Boba is about to light his ass up with his flame thrower he hears a second saber turn on behind him, it’s a young Padawan. The Jedi screams, “NO MALIK! RUN!” before being shot point blank in the head by Boba, who then turns to face the Padawan. The Padawan screams out in despair and attacks wildly, close quarters and lightsabers don’t mix well so he uses his rocket to shoot a hole in the ceiling and jet packs through it, from the air he drops multiple grenades down the hole and blows the shack to kingdom come. For the final shot, the padawan crawls out of the ruins and reaches up to Boba, mirroring the final shot of the Mandalorian where Grogu reaches out from his crib, Boba shoots him and walks back to his ship. This tells the audience one thing. Boba is not the Mandalorian. He is not a hero. He is an anti Hero. The first episode plays to his ruthless nature and begins his journey to morality in a vastly different way to the show. The killing of the Jedi is reflected back on by Boba in later episodes as not so different from the killing of his own father, and this regret is what will lead him to seek redemption. If anyone bothered to read this thanks! I’m on day 6 of sitting in a hospital bed with a collapsed lung so this was really fun and gave me something to do :)

[@DasBaumable]

The Jedi in your story seem a bit incompetent, but other than that I really liked your mix of nostalgia and setting Boba up for change! Sounds way more natural to me to show him as we last saw him (ruthless bounty hunter lone wolf type) to slowly become sth different. Vader liking clones more is also spot on, nice detail.

[@St.dresden]

@@DasBaumable thanks man! Now I’m thinking harder about it Boba could have a conversation with the Jedi that parallels Obi wans conversation with Jango, something akin to “Rumour has it you’re a Jedi” “Im just a man trying to make his way in the galaxy” Since Star Wars is all about flipping the script every movie. To have a Mandalorian questioning a Jedi would be a classic parallel to Obi wan questioning Jango, and it would enforce the regret Boba later feels for killing the padawan

And THANK YOU for mentioning Rey falling for Kylo and how INSANE that was when she saw him literally murder, in front of her face, everyone who was kind to her - and then she repays their deaths by wanting to get with Kylo Ren??? AND THEN WOKESTERS THINK THIS IS THE FEMALE HERO WE ALL NEEDED???? How did they have the amazing ability to skip the part she ran straight into the arms of the abuser? How? For all the “we want equality - you are threatened by strong independent women” garbage, how did they skip the part that Rey didn’t go for the black guy who ditched the darkside - no, we went for the white dude who was a mass murderer? LUKE had a REASON to try to turn Vader - THAT was his FATHER. Kylo had ZERO relationship to Rey. ZERO. Even if the emperor was cultivating some mind meld date rape brain control formula, we all witness Rey, the most powerful untrained Jedi in the universe, get ‘dickwhipped’ by a temper tantrum whacko freak genocide monger. So she ain’t no Wonder Woman - she’s literally Leni Riefenstahl! Would sort of make sense since the Nazi director propaganda films for Hitler literally became the sound and visual basis for Star Wars and even Indiana Jones. So - Rey, the Nazi lover, makes sense. But you know, if you don’t love her you’re a misogynist.

Daniel Logan should have been Boba Fett he's 34 years old just seven years younger than Fett. Since they always change characters back stories in the same Disney Star Wars universe, they could've retconned Boba's story that the Kaminos actually did alter his DNA to look different than Jango but didn't give him the aging acceleration programming. Where have I heard that story before???? That's right! It was the Bad Batch with Omega. All these failed Filoni characters like Din and Omega are given Boba's backstory. If the production and storytelling is this pathetic, then make Boba's shows about him and the Bounty Hunters from Empire. Though Kathleen Kennedy would disagree, there are tons of pre-2012 Boba stories they could have used. I don't care about one character on Boba's show. If they die I don't have to worry because, "No one's ever really gone"... I'm referring to you Cad Bane. Ugh!

[@gregputtlitz8608]

My biggest question was why did Boba totally forget ab han, luke, leia, chewy, etc. Why did he not mention the people who sent him to the sarlacc pit in the first place w no desire for any revenge or closure at all?

A moment please to appreciate that this was the man who called out Mando from day one when everyone else (hyperbole people, I’m not meaning literally everyone) said it was fine. Glad to see you kept strong.

[@kirstenb1913]

Sooo true. RH has balls of solid steel. He was completely ostracised by fellow SW KZbinrs when he called out Mando. You're the only one who has noticed, respect!

@@kirstenb1913 it did easily if you didn’t nitpick every little detail (and it’s still pretty good if you did). I just binged all of RHs mando videos and they are 75% nitpicking, 20% invalid arguments, and 5% valid arguments

What is considered a Disney Fan? Like, I despise the sequels, thought Rogue 1 was amazing, and believed Solo to be alright. I love the Mandolorian, and I'd give this Boba show a low score. I can't forget that Clone Wars S7 (most of it) was fantastic, and I really enjoyed Bad Batch. I can accept many things as nitpicks for the shows, but not all of them. The Disney+ shows definitely have a better knack for utilizing existing themes, characters, and places that haven't made the big screen. I feel the opposite to you regarding the flashbacks. I thought that story was more interesting & had more depth than the "present" story. It would've been nice to know what his motive was for joining the tribe. Was he too far from civilization & wouldn't survive escape? Did he think this was the best option? It could have easily translated to his pacificist & respectful nature in the present story. Instead, we have to just see things pan out with his approach with no explanation. Imagine the flashbacks coming to an end with him telling the story to Fennec or something? I 100% agree about recasting roles. Get somebody who is younger and looks somewhat similar. Any real fan shouldn't care about that, because it's simply not a realistic thing to implement. I say give somebody else a shot at portraying Luke Skywalker, even. People start to notice when they're given something simply to pique they're nostalgia.

Morrison should be cast as a live action Captain REX. he's both the correct age and build at this point. They could use him heavily in the upcoming ashoka series. ( as they are best friends for all intensive purposes, and Rex is a "good" character so Disney doesn't have to worry about the whole morality problem.

[@TheBrickGuy7939]

They should have brought Bodie Taylor back. He's the right age and sounds similar to Tamuera Morrison.

just gotta say I love the style and production of your content. Theres a lot of people posting star wars content but youres really stands out. After a rewatch of the Lucas episodes I found watching you tear the disney sequels to shreds infinitely more satisfying than actually watching them and I have yet to hear your thoughts on a property that hasnt resonated.
