    Why is Boba Fett Different? On top of that, why is Boba Fett so popular? From the beginning, it was clear he was a different kind of character. Even when compared to other characters with similar screen time and number of lines, Boba Fett still stands out. The Book of Boba Fett will finally shed some light on as to why, with those who have hated him, and thrill the fans who have loved him. But why is he different and popular right now? Let's take a look at the character of Boba Fett!

    Boba Fett is cool because he was mysterious, menacing, and wore badass armor. He truly was “Mr. Action man” always ready for anything. Personally, I think the way he fell in the pit made him more interesting because for a long time many people didn’t know if he survived or not. That kept me intrigued.

    To me while he does have inconsistent characterization(not even the writers seem to agree on what kind of person Boba is let alone fans) I say at his core Boba Fett isn’t good or evil.
    He’s just a simple man making his way in the galaxy like his father before him.

    In Empire, Boba was able to talk back to Vader, Lando was not able to talk back. Vader did not have to compensate Boba if Han Solo were to die. But out of Vaders respect for Boba he will pay boba is Solo dies. Vader kept altering the deal with Lando, and told him in a threatening manner, "Perhaps you think you're being treated unfairly?" Then boba is like "what if he dies, he is worth alot to me?" Vader could have been like. Well thats too bad, I only need you to find him.

    Correction: On screen, Zam Wesell failed to assassinate a senator. Jango used her as a proxy, a job given to a friend trying to catch a break. Now, here is Jango's success rate: he was hired as a clone template for the grand army of the Republic and they executed their purpose successfully 😎👍🏼 The entire order of the Jedi extinct, and a newly formed empire built on the backs of his army. A legacy unmatched by any in the entire history of Star Wars.

    I think Boba Fett stood out as an iconic figure because he is the only character allied with Vader that ever questions him without retrobution. He, in a threatening way, states to Vader, "He is worth a lot to me." To which Vader response, "The Empire will compensate you should he die." Instead of force choking him.

    Well, guess my comment here is a bit unneccesary - as you very well know how I feel about Boba. Though I have to admit that I just can't separate movies and other material completely. Maybe I love him so much because he seems to mostly not give a da** sh** (over the years, I did that with many aspects of my personal life, too - not to care what others think).

    Well I've always loved the look of boba Fett I've always found the character kind of cliche. Once they started revealing his personality to us it was about what we all figured it would be kind of a Clint Eastwood type. With the upcoming book of boba Fett I'm more excited about this character than ever before. I think we're going to finally see him out of a standard roll of bounty hunter badass into a whole new realm of badass. I think we'll finally get to see some real personality come out of his character. They may have revealed some and the clone wars animation but I don't watch that and also he was just a kid so I don't know how much of it you can count that.

      While technically your thoughts seem like they have merit, I'll explain it as simply as I can. Even in our own world, there are fathers who aren't very loving to their children. Bringing them up as something more like what they are. Look at the case of the Chundawat family, for an example. Second, Boba Fett calls Jango father, Jango calls Boba son. And saying Boba shouldn't be a Fett or a Mandalorian because of his birth/creation is like saying an adoptive child in our world shouldn't call those people his family...they weren't born of them. That also means they have no rights of being in that family's will. In that case we can go back and Say Din Djarin isn't a Mandalorian.
