Boba Fett is BACK!

I have no words.

40 years ago we were introduced to Boba Fett. He had all of 4 lines in the entire movie…

  • “As you wish.” – Boba Fett to: Vader
  • “What if he doesn’t survive? He’s worth a lot to me.” – Boba Fett re: Han Solo
  • “He’s no good to me dead.” – Boba Fett
  • “Put Captain Solo in the cargo hold.” – Boba Fett

But…he was the fiercest, most badass bounty hunter in the galaxy when it came to the books and comics…and EVERY kid wanted to be Boba Fett when we ran around and played Star Wars.

Flash forward 40 years, and we have a grizzled and scarred up Boba Fett that somehow escaped the sarlacc pit. Has he spent all this time on Tattooine? We have questions!

Regardless, he’s seemingly faster, stronger and tougher than we have ever seen in a movie. He fights off TWO squads of stormtroopers almost single-handedly…and that’s without his armor. It’s when he spots his armor in the Razorcrest that things get interesting…it’s like a switch goes off and Badass Ultimate Warrior Boba Fett is activated and we finally see his glory unleashed on our high-definition 4k television sets.

Like many of us, 40 years has taken its toll. He’s battered, beat up, but still has some serious fight in him.

I’d argue that he’s probably scarier now than he ever was.
