Daniel Logan is the only one who should be considered to play Boba Fett in the movie. Boba needs to be of Maori decent. Taika Waititi would be okay, but no. Everyone who fights for Ewan to play Obi-Wan should fight like hell for Daniel Logan to be Boba Fett again. Daniel Logan was the little boy who played him in Attack Of The Clones
and he’s voiced him in all his appearances in The Clone Wars. He’s all grown up now and he even made an appearance on the official Star Wars YouTube channel for their science of Star Wars show about Boba Fett’s flamethrower. And he has been recently been outfitted his own Boba Fett armor. Check his instagram out, his Boba Fett costume is glorious. Daniel Logan is the only choice that should even be there. Daniel deserves to be Boba Fett again.
And all the people saying stuff like “he doesn’t deserve a starring movie role just because he played a small role when he was a kid” or “do we even know if he can act?” – voice acting is acting. He had acted before and after AotC. It’s not like he left the character behind and started an accounting firm. He’s an actor who’s played Boba Fett for years. He is Boba Fett.
I know there’s a contingent pushing for Taika Waititi as Boba, but them aside, the kneejerk “no, not Daniel Logan!” reactions I’ve seen really make me wonder who they’re envisioning to play him, then. Jon Hamm?
Tfw you hate a fictional character so much you throw actual child victims of war crimes under the bus
How do you know other Stormtroopers don’t have “spunk and sass,” though, especially in a situation where they’re free to show it? People are, above all, situational. Finn himself played the role of a very by-the-books soldier when he was still under the FO’s thumb, and in fact was considered the best of them. Who knows that individualities other Troopers have under their helmets, and would display once it was safe to–and if they weren’t killed on a mass scale?
listen i want the star wars sequel trilogy to share the same fate as the thor trilogy
1st installment: a solid well directed movie. some nice visuals, good goofs, a balance of content for existing fans and new fans. villain kills his own dad. a good set up for future movies.
2nd installment: a hot mess. tries to be dark and edgier™️ but fails. plot is convoluted and the bad guy is underwhelming. we try to root for our favourite characters even if they are a little ooc. beloved parental figure is killed off in a way that doesn’t really raise the stakes
3rd installment: saved by taika waititi. upbeat colourful space romp. parodies darker previous installments at times and has lots of good laughs. protagonist is related to villain who gets their comeuppance for being a genocidal imperial monster. also definitely some gay shit in there.
i think we need a time skip between tlj and ix but i’m also viscerally terrified of what they could establish as canon during the time skip lol. like oh we’re back, finn and rose are in a years-long established relationship, poe’s got a new gf, it happened offscreen so don’t worry about it it’s the law now. shut up and buy porg
Out of the darkness of the room, the blood-red blade crackled to life, and Finn felt his blood run cold. He wished that Rey was here, like the last time they faced Kylo. Sure, he’d gotten knocked out, but at least he didn’t feel as scared when she was nearby.
The blade swung upwards, and Finn prepared himself for the inevitable. Hopefully while Ren was focused on eliminating him, Rose and DJ would be able to finish the mission, though Rose had pointed out rather hard that they would be hard-pressed to start a Stormtrooper rebellion without someone who knew where they were coming from, who had managed to defect on his own.
The blade came down with a deathly hum, but stopped, just to Finn’s left, lighting a candle. Then another, and another. The light from the candles allowed Finn to see the rest of the room, which included a maskless Ren standing over him, a quartet of Stormtroopers who began to play a classic Imperial piece, and Rey, tied up just like him on the other side of the table holding the candles.
“Rey?”
“Finn!” She cried, sounding overjoyed and confused at the same time. Wow, she looked amazing in that blue-gray jacket, it really brought out her eyes.
“You’re supposed to be in Jedi training with Skywalker!” He said.
“And you’re supposed to be healing from a coma in the Resistence base!” She squeaked, just as confused. “I tried to come back because Skywalker said he didn’t trust himself enough to train me.”
“I know, he’s such a drag, right?”
“Shut it, Ren!” They shouted in unison. All while Finn’s former fellow troopers continued to play their violins and cellos. When did they learn how to do that? And why couldn’t he have learned to be a musician instead of a trooper?
“What do you want with us, Ren?” Finn said, trying to sound brave as he eyed the troopers behind the dark Jedi. Certainly Kylo Ren had plenty of strange tastes, but Finn had never pegged him as someone who enjoyed classical music, especially while torturing his prisoners.
“Isn’t it obvious?” Ren asked. It was strange to hear him without the mask.
“If you’re going to kill us, can you make it quick? I’m not too keen to go tell your mother that I can’t bring her brother out of hiding, especially after you slaughtered her husband.” Rey said.
“We can discuss Skywalker’s location later,” Ren dismissed. “First, we must discuss the obvious.”
“Which is…what?” Finn asked.
Kylo stared at him. It was a weird stare. Not a glare, as he was accustomed to recieving from Ren, but almost curious.
“Are you serious, traitor?” He asked.
Finn tilted his head forward. “Am I missing something here?”
Kylo groaned loudly, and the stormtrooper quartet hit a sour note. The lightsaber came on as he spun to face a blank wall that was suddenly covered in burning gashes. “I MEAN COME ON! HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE IT!?”
“See what?” Rey asked.
“I go through all this trouble. Pull that hunk of junk out of hyperspace- do you know how hard it is to do that!?- send a spy undercover to make sure he heals,catch him in the middle of invading an Order base without alerting his companions, all to bring the both of you together-” He held out his hands towards Finn and Rey, his face etched with agitation. “AND ALL YOU CAN SAY IS “WHAT”!?!?!?!”
Finn made a mental note to warm General Organa about a spy in the resistence, but then he noticed what was on the table with the candles.
Rose petals sprinkled around the finest china dishes and silver utensils that the First Order had to offer, filled with some of the most delicious food Finn had ever seen in his life.
