I for one, am pretty excited about it. I remember Boba always being one bad mother f'er as a kid. Excited to see more of the back story on him. The tone and mood looks excellent. As someone mentioned earlier, it has the "Rogue" thing going on. I believe if they stay true to a high production level, should be gem with that cast.

^ I just commented:
"I don't understand the fascination with Star Wars, it's all made up and scientific facts would dispute all of it. Much like religion..."
Thinking more around that point, perhaps now I can see why people are so fanatical around religions and so defensive if you insult their religion - Religions are like Star Wars. Lord help you if you say to a Star Wards fan you don't like Star Wards, can't be bothered to watch it, were never into it as a kid... blasphemy.

- It's just not science fiction, it's fantasy in space.zarkonite
- Look at game of thrones, total ass shit overcomplicated story but people love it because it's a mess. Since nothing makes sense you can pretty much arguezarkonite
- on everything and interpret it how you want... just like religion!zarkonite
- I had some questions but thought Game of Thrones was pretty coherent.CyBrainX
- People don't love Star Wars because they think all of it can happen. It's as much fantasy as Sci Fi anyway.CyBrainX

i'm not so sure about this. as much as i love star wars and its universe, there's a lack of intrigue here. and while "rogue one" offered a lot in terms of plot and still managed to bring in the jedi mysticism, this feels more like i'm going to be watching NYPD blue or some shit with masks and effects.
i get boba fett brings in the $ but part of his intrigue was the minor role in the original trilogy ... better call saul proves you can take supporting characters and make them a centerpiece but even this trailer relies heavily on the "hey it's a star wars thing!" nostalgia instead of any proof of poignancy
- I think it opens up possibilities to treat this like an anthology as sorts with boba Fett as the common thread but different stories & adventures each episode_niko
- But let's face it. Boba Fett was a nearly useless character. Did he even have any lines until they showed him as a child in Attack of the Clones?CyBrainX
- I have to have more of a motivation to see a movie than some kids in 1983 thought his helmet was cool.CyBrainX
- it's not Boba Fett lol, why does everyone think it is. Kind of wish it was but alas not, it just happens the helmet was quite common back then.fadein11

Filmmaker Jon Favreau has used his Instagram account to post a new photo from the set of the upcoming live-action “Star Wars” series “The Mandalorian,” a shot of a key prop featured in the action.
Making Star Wars has looked into it and discovered the prop, a weapon known as an ‘Amban phase-pulse blaster’, is the same one used by Boba Fett in the much-maligned “Star Wars Holiday Special”.

I guess Disney doesn't think that what happened to Star Trek in the early 00s — death by oversaturation (four series in a row, with overlap) — is going to happen to Star Wars.
Hell, apparently CBS doesn't think what happened to Star Trek in the early 00s will happen to Star Trek, either!
- I agree but so far, Star Trek has been doing well lately. We'll see about the Patrick Stewart series.CyBrainX

Thats some serious talent. I have a theory that Bryce Dallas Howard is getting a shot at directing episodes as the Mandalorian is Sabine Wren from Rebels and Bryce Dallas Howard has ben cast Wren.
Excited to see how Filoni handles the chair in Live action too.
- Sabine and her fam always struck me as having asian characteristics.

Then shortly complain it isn't canon because back in 1987 in some obscure comic he was blah blah blah and his personality was blah blah blah oh my GOD.. that is the wrong blue and green Pantone, I could of made it better...and FUCK Star Wars, making too many *oh cool, another marvel movie..., gross DC movie let me hate on it before I see it..... chugs red bull gets on boards 'fake rage'
*insert coming soon the internet
joking aside. Hope it's good. love the idea of bounty hunters as a series. hope it has that dark sons of anarchy / game of thrones vibe and darker tones vs a live action clone wars cheesy fest.
- Agreed, hopefully it will be a little dark and not so "family" oriented. But whatever, they just want to sell more merchandise.Maaku
- I hope it's light hearted, has bounty hunter wahmen doing bounty hunting stuff and has plenty of vagina jokes.robthelad
- ^ So, basically, you want to watch Deadpool and Deadpool 2.Continuity

I never would have thought that a little green doll and some dude who never takes off his helmet would make me weep like a bitch an hour before work on a Friday morning.

I think bounty hunters including Boba Fett are about the least interesting thing the franchise has to offer.
