    The most interesting version would also feature a culturally Kaminoan Boba Fett. This should be reflected in his preferred mode of dress, speech patterns, and cultural cues.

    I was really hoping that he might be lead counsel for the legal team that's wrangling over Nass's estate in the B plot of the film. It would be performance that's tonally somewhere between Concussion and Seven Pounds.

    Do you think Molina should be replaced by Forrest Whittaker, though?

    Just know that the scene will be forensically analysed & interpreted. If Finn is shortchanged at all during the proceedings the Diversity threads here will blow up.

    Just make it a two hour PSA with the heartwarming message "Star Wars is bad. All of it. In fact, everything is bad"

    He didn't. He probably gets Blessed and John Rhys-Davies confused.

    This is a serious film. We're not using fat comedians.

    Because he was born on Kamino, interacted with Kaminoans, spent his entire childhood in a place where art and architecture were informed by Kaminoan culture, and because realistically as a prepubescent with his parents slain, realistically he is most likely to regress to the place he is already established and have no other resources to set up alternatives.

    “Okay guys, pack it up. It was a good idea, but I guess we over estimated the market”

    “Wait boss! I’ve got this guy on the phone named jango, and you won’t believe what he wants!”

    The Kaminoans are highly intelligent beings. They would never call someone a turd without a complete fecal analysis.

    This is the hardest I have laughed all week.

    Actually according to the (now defunct) EU, the Kaminoans were able to see in ultraviolet, so there were very intricate murals and frescos that we weren't able to appreciate. We can also extrapolate to imagine that Boba Fett's multi-colored armor in ESB is a visible light spectrum interpretation of whatever ultraviolet pattern was on his father's armor. In the film, this decision can be an important moment in his reconciliation between two different heritages.

    Lucky his Dad didn’t work for the Geonosians. We’d see him adopt the persona of a termite.

    Good thing Obi-wan Kenobi was just "working for" the Jedi Order, huh?

    When we saw Boba as a 12(?) year old there was nothing particularly Kaminoan that stood out about him. After he was stranded on the termite planet with his clone host’s severed head he could’ve ended up anywhere.

    First of all he couldn't have been more than about nine years old. Secondly, he was very credulous, as the Kaminoans also are. Thirdly, his style of dress is very simple, as there's also is. While his father is still dressing him in human clothing, the patterning shows his preference for their designs. Fourth of all, the child actor puts quite an emphasis on head movements in his thirty seconds onscreen. He is constantly nodding, craning his head sideways, and shaking vigorously. It is quite evident that he is trying to mime the expressions of a creature with a much longer neck, which would allow for greater nuance. It's practically screaming at you, if you bother to look at the screen.

    & people say you have no sense of humour!

    If he’s 12 why is his clone host still dressing him? Bit weird.

    Still weird. Not as strange as copying a bunch of long neck CGI aliens instead of your clone host/father.

    Thank you for being judgmental about Kaminoan culture, which keeps parents more involved for a longer period. Glad to see you are able to be tolerant.

    And he mixes influences from both Kamino and his father, as all children mix the impact of their broader environment and their family life. Only after his father died, there was Kaminoan influence alone.

    That’s when he really ramped up the vigorous shaking & head movements? Glad he got that **** under control by TESB.
