I doubt executive producer has that big a creative role in big productions. Besides… have you seen a SW movie, especially the prequels? Spielberg might not have been a big improvement but he couldn’t have made things much worse on that front.
there are expressions in mando’a, boba knows, for family, and for brother, and for family-is-more-than-blood. there are words for no-longer-father, for disgraced parents who were not what their children needed or deserved.
he is ten years old, squatting in the geonosian sand, and he does not think there is a word for alone, does not think there is one for orphaned, does not think there is one for fatherless, that could describe how he feels right now.
his fathers teachings echo in his head.
assess the situation. list your resources.
boba fett is ten years old, grit in his eyes from the battle around him, and this is what he has: his father’s helmet, clutched tightly to his chest. the knife in his boot and the pistol on his hip. ( should have used them should have put a hole in the jetii’s back what kind of a mando are you if you can’t even save your family ) he has – what does he have?
twenty-some credits in the pockets of his tunic. a holocommunicator. he has – he has …
his father’s corpse, headless, bloodless, in the sand.
boba presses the helmet to his forehead and stifles the sting in his eyes, blames it on the sharp smell of ozone and burning flesh or the desert wind. he catches his own reflection in the dull silver metal, and tries to steady his breathing, imagines his father’s voice coming from inside of him.
i have myself. i have the will to fight, and i have my father’s face. i have what he taught me.
and it works, on some level, as he sees the gunships, remembers that the faces underneath the white helmets taking off now are the same as his. remembers where his father left slave one, and the many times he’d allowed boba to help fly it.
Short answer? Yes. Yes, they do. Also as someone who studied law I’m deeply annoyed by the stupid assertion that Benny Boy owns the Falcon. You can’t inherit from someone you murdered, that’s a really basic rule instituted for obvious reasons, and any portion of a will making a bequest to the murderer will be voided. Quite aside from that, though, these asshats forget that Leia is RIGHT THERE? So is Chewie, for that matter, who has as much a stake in the Falcon as Han does and probably could get a lien for all the elbow grease he put into that hunk of junk. (I also headcanon that Lando has a claim as Han’s co-spouse with Leia.) I think they Leia and Chewie both made their stance clear when they flew the Falcon away from Ren at full speed.
Reylow dumbasses further forget that Ren doesn’t even want the Falcon any more than he wants Rey? Buh-LOW that piece of junk out of the SKY, ring a bell?
I’m not against that at all, personally, just find it annoying when people jump from that to TrUE lOVe eNdGaME!!!!111 while dismissing Finn and Rey’s bond and their obvious attraction to each other.
