CT Wingreen or Morrison's Boba Fett voice?.

I like that for continuity's sake it was changed to match Jango's in Attack of the Clones, but I just prefer the original voice, as it's what I remember Boba Fett sounding like.

 

I do like Wingreen's voice. However, changing it to Morrison's voice was not a problem for me. He may be a fearsome threat and bounty hunter, but he doesn't have to sound sinister. Fett is evidently very popular due to his stories in the EU, and given how he can be morally ambiguous and complex, I prefer Morrison's. For whatever reason, it sounds more natural and less defensive.

 

I prefer Wingreen. I don't get why Boba had to be a clone of Jango, but I guess Jango was so busy in his line of work that he didn't have time to find himself a wife and have a kid. GL making Jango a "Fett" in the prequels was just fan service in my opinion.

 

To be honest, I don't feel they needed to change the voice. In the OT, Boba barely speaks. I barely notice that big of a difference...

 

Wow, I just found this thread now and I'm kind of lost. When this change was made? For the DVD's release some years ago? Because I have this box and I don't know if this new voice it is included or not.

 

04 versions onwards.

 

For continuity's sake I prefer Morrison but I would have liked it if he had played it as coldly as Wingreen. Morrison basically played Jango when recording the lines. I also would have liked Morrison to have recorded the scream in Jedi.

 

To expand, I much prefer Wingreen, but 90% because of the performance itself. Morrison should have tried to better match Wingreen's tone. He sounds so bored and subservient as he does.

 

To me there is not difference at all. The tone is the same. It's a different voice.

 

Morrison didn´t need to watch Wingreen´s tone. Morrison now owns the voice of the character, not Wingreen.

 

"Owning" the voice (which is pretty disrespectful to Wingreen in my opinion, as it implies his work means absolutely nothing - different portrayals of the same character are no less valid than each other) is no excuse for a piss-poor performance.

 

Wingreen. The first Boba voice I heard so it's stuck with me.

 

It only comes across as piss poor to you because his take did not match the one you envisioned as ideal and chances are Wingreen did

I for one prefer the flippant/bored Boba. It says to me that he's treating it as just another job. Not every minor villain needs to be ruthless with a big "I'M EVIL" sign over their heads. I respect Wingreen's cold/ruthless take, but as I said prefer Morrison's take.

 

The tone is not the same. Wingreen didn't do his over the phone and actually tried. Your PT NO blinds you.

No idea why you thought you could use this phrase, but you cannot.

 

Yes, he recorded his lines remotely because he lives in New Zealand. That doesn't necessarily mean he put less effort into his performance. I doubt Wingreen's original voice work for ESB took more than an hour to record, if that. It's not like it was some blood-sweat-and-tears virtuoso performance that took him years to perfect and which Lucas callously wiped out with the flick of his wrist.

Mind you, this is all separate from the question of which performance you prefer. That's entirely subjective.

 

I simply don't care which of them it is.

 

I doubt it took even an hour. It's four lines!! I bet it didn't take more than 10-15 minutes!
Darth Vader's voice in Episode IV was recorded in just one morning.

 

Wingreen's. I like Morrison's voice, but for Jango and the Clones. Anyway, just because Boba is a clone doesn't mean his voice would end up sounding the same. The Clones would have received training from Jango throughout their maturation, and would then go on to train other clones, so they'd all pick up the same type of accent from Jango. Boba, however, had 25 years between the end of AotC and TESB during which he would likely pick up different inflections based around who he was hanging around between the ages of 10 and 35. It makes sense to me that his voice wouldn't sound the same as Jango's. And regardless of continuity, I just prefer how Wingreen's voice represents the character.

 

Morrison's. Wingreen's voice never stood out to me as anything special or iconic, and at least Morrison's gives some sort of continuity.

 

Since Boba is a direct clone of Jango, his voice should sound the same. If anything, the altered clones should sound different.

But I do prefer Wingreen. That is the voice of a cold-blooded bounty hunter.

 

I like both, but I voted for Morrison because it makes more sense continuity-wise.

 

I honestly don't even remember what Wingreen sounded like. Morrison is the voice I hear when I think of older Boba now.

 

I have a preference of Jason Wingreen's. The voice was rather much more menacing and chilling. Morrison's is fair though it is better continuity. Or Jason Wingreen could have played Jango in II.

 

Or found someone who sounds like him. Or digitally altered the voice.
