The Mandalorian (Star Wars Live Action Series)

Seriously? I take it this was a completely different son than Ben/Kylo. Who was the mom?

The mom was still Leia. Han/Leia had 3 kids: Jacen and Jaina (twins) and Anakin. Luke had one son, Ben. I’ve always assumed Rey/Ben were loosely based off of Jacen/Jaina. Jacen turns to the dark side and Jaina has to fight him and gets training from Boba to do it. So, the Solos/Fetts kind of bury the hatchet.

Interesting. I suppose I could buy that story line. He was a gun for hire, so no reason why he'd carry a personal vendetta against Han. But I'm assuming Han was at least a bit hesitant about the arrangement? Or did Jaina do this on the down low?

Yes releasing this now is fair play. It keeps the subscribers, drives talk and speculation (which is exactly what we're all doing) and gives the toy makers time.

Maybe they'll make Fett a grumpy old hermit.....

Total guess he'll be some kinda badass, if not actively working.

Don't particularly MIND him showing up, but since I don't "get" the Boba fandom (didn't read) 2 concerns:

1) Re-focus on this bounty hunter, as he's more or less known entity (even if filmwise technically dead). IMO too much re-hash is the road
to the Dark Side. ST couldn't let go; IMO a huge flaw. That said, IMO Filoni in Clone Wars and Rebels, and Mandalorian to me seem
to be able to keep the right balance of nostalgia vs. new (unlike the ST). And tell a reasonable story as to why the dead have returned.
(Unlike Palps, who managed to survive a fall of hundreds of feet and a pulverizing explosion. I guess the bits just floated around in
subzero space and reconstituted or something....)

2) For the diehards no matter what is done with Boba, it ain't gonna be enough. Or "right". Impossible position for F&F.

Tho it does give me an excuse to pick up the SSC Mythos Fett if funds available, maybe. Like the look. Main Mando characters are a priority tho $$$$$.

Short and sweet. Two qualities that kept the mythos of Fett alive all these years. Gotta go 'no' with his own show.

Having T. Morrison back is a pleasant surprise to me.

I'm glad the show is not about Fett. Way too much pressure and too many fan expectations for a show built around him. I am glad they are addressing him and I hope that it lives up to the hardcore fan's expectations. I like the look of Fett and thought he was cool but was never a super fan. I didn't like the voice change in Empire as I liked his original voice. Temura is great though and I liked his Jango Fett and all of the clones were fine too. I wouldn't be surprised if they address Rex at some point on this or another show.

That is exactly Dizknee's playbook: don't give the fans what they want. Kill Han, ruin Luke and don't give R2/3P0/Chewy anything important to do. I have to say I am glad they haven't done Fett up to this point, it would only further ruin the character. And don't worry, they won't deliver on Fett in the Mandalorian. When Baby Yoda, who isn't even Yoda, gets more publicity than the main character, you did a disservice to the show. Reminds me of GOTG Vol. 2 - just promote the hell out of Baby Groot and the rest doesn't matter.

P.S. Biehn should be Dengar!

From what I remember Jacen killed Boba’s daughter and Han/Boba actually worked together to bring the killer down. They found out it was Jacen and Han disowned his son. Then Jacen killed his Aunt Mara (Luke’s wife). Then Boba trained Jaina to help bring down Jacen. I believe Han didn’t find out until after Jaina told him what happened (killing Jacen). So she did do it on the down low, but I doubt Han had a problem with it considering everything that happened and his own working with Boba.

The final shot of Ashoka in that final episode her eyes and lips were freaking huge.

They can still use RD but also still cgi her eyes and lips similar to how they did Deadpool white eyes.

I just don?t know if making her lips that large in live action will invite racial accusations against Disney so they might not do it for that reason alone but in that cartoon in that one close up shot of her looking at the helmets with her cloak over her head her lips were huge lol

I just don?t think using RD full human face with just makeup is going to look like Ashoka.

They might still do the character justice it just won?t look exactly like her.

Christopher Lee’s nose didn’t take up half his face like it does on Clone Wars . All the characters have their features exaggerated on the show. Sure Ashoka has big eyes and lips, but when done realistically, they’d be much smaller. We’ve just never had a live action likeness or compare her to. I don’t think it will be bad. I’m more worried about the voice being off than her looks.

Dooku was a human (you know what I mean a human in the SW universe)

She literally has non human alien eyes.

Fair enough, but Shaak Ti had normal human sized eyes. I imagine Ahsoka wouldn’t be much different.

I don?t know I think they should respect the character and give her those giant alien eyes.

For her lips just use a prosthetic like Broadway Phantom I never realized her lips were that big like what the heck lol

RD does have luscious thicc lips though hnnng

There was something a little off putting with Alita’s CGI enhances eyes. They looked fine and all, just unnaturally large for a human face. Had she been orange with weird horn things coming out of her head, it might have been less jarring

 

[jye4ever]

But which HT version will you buy!

I’d probably buy both a clone wars and Mando version actually! I’d prefer the realistic look the Rex tease seems to imply. Just goes with the rest of the collection better rather than starting a sub collection.

 

[Buttmunch]

Well, that settles the animated vs realistic HT debate. Realistic it is!

Sorry big lipped alien eye Ashoka you are out lol

That?s ok RD is thicc in all the right places
