I just want to mention that I first read the text on the thumbnail as "Femboy rewrites" and now I can't unsee it.

I like how there’s actually a book in this version of the show

Sheev talks: I think boba fett should be the main character of a show called the book of boba fett Jon and Dave: nah you crazy

In essence, I wanted Boba to be written a lot like Arthur Morgan.

This is a great rewrite, my one gripe though is that I don’t think they could get the actor for Jango to come back. Maybe though.

The fact that jango never appeared in person in the book of boba fett in my opinion was the most disappointing part of the show among a few other things, but jango was the main thing for me. And the only change I would make to your pitch is maybe including a few references to Zam Wesell like in his father’s journal or even just having boba mentioning her fondly in reference to his past. Also I do want to see the unfinished clone wars boba fett arc it’s just the most frustrating part is that Lucas film treats the full arc as canon and yet the only people who have seen the full context of the arc are the people at Lucas film.

Boba's last line to Cad Bane should've been something like, "First Lesson, (Insert lesson from Jango Book)." Would've been cool to have the implied last meeting between them mirror the last time they met.

2:14 Even thought I would love to see that, cosmonaut variety hour brought up a great point that the boba Fett we want is just the mandalorian. The mandalorian is a bounty hunter with a lot of cool gadgets, says few words, and rarely takes off his helmet. I basically described boba Fett in the original trilogy. I think what the book of boba Fett was trying to go for was that the whole show would be a character arc with him breaking from his bounty hunter past, the weird tree scenes seemed to have happened for that reason.

“Jabba ruled with respect, I intend to rule with fear.” Now that would’ve been a good show

I was on the fence till you said Hondo shows up, instantly perfect

The version you made is so much superior to the actual released version, with us just being told boba is a changed man, and cad bane appearing in the 2nd last episode with no context for casual fans, and boba fett being a dumb ass. i liked the tusken part of bofb the most, so it being excluded here kinda sucks, although now thinking back, why would boba want to be apart of a tribe which wouldve worked him to death if he had not proven useful... Overall, how the hell did *you* come up with a more compelling main plot than a bunch of people whose main job is to come up with stories, it kinda sad how a single youtuber made up a better plot (even though its just a rough outline) than a group of full time story writers, and we got the pos that was book of boba fett

I want the EU stuff made Canon TBH. I have not seen anything that compares to bobas Story there. Especially the stuff with his Family. That Scene where he sits in Slave I next to his Granddaughter: "We will go to Mandalore by way of Geonosis, cause that is where I burried my dad." and "Boba would be a Father himself, instead of living in the Past in search of one who would never Return" are some of the Lines which gave me goosebumps. Why they put in Tuskens instead of further explaining his connection to Jango and Jester I will never understand. Putting out his name out there is nice and all. But it does not feel right given what we know. That Boba is supposed to be Jesters Legacy as stated by Jango when he requested an unaltered Clone and later revealed to Boba by Taun We (Guess we won't se that either, Thanks Bad Batch) His Illness was never explained.... I could go on and on Bobas Story in the EU is criminally underrated imo. The Stories about him and Clan Skirata are the reason a lot of us learned to Love the Mando'ade in the first place. So in breaks my heart to see the Character of Boba, who had real groth over the course of 6 Books or something like that, reduced to "like a Bantha"... And lets be Honest here. There is no BIG picture, at least not as far as I can see. They teased the Yuuzhan Vong in the Thrawn novels yes. But how would that War look without Jana, Jacen and Anakin Solo or Boba Fett playing both sides and Leading a bunch of Mandalorian Commandos into battle? Yes the EU was full of contradictions like SPAARTI Clones and Stuff like that. But the Authors worked around that (unlike now) they actually read the Media that came before and you can feel that. For example Timothy Zahn's version of The Clone Wars and the Idear of fast grown SPAARTI Clones was used in Karen Traviss Republic Commando Novels whoms Characters in tuns where mentioned and appeard in Later Novels. It Felt more like a living bereathing Universe. And I'm not asking that they copy the EU. But I would like them to at least read it.

It's so perplexing how anti-development this show is. I LOVE the ideas of this show but it always feels awkward how the scenes are written to develop Boba. The show feels less like it is for Boba Fett's growth as a character which I would've loved for a show and more like a spinoff show to setup another show.

This is my favourite rewrite of the show so far, I've seen it thrice already like miles better than the actual show. Props to you Sheev.

I think Cad actually has some sort of cybernetic cap on his head as he did suffer a near headshot death from the shootout with boba in cw, I think he should at least be injured but not to that extent so like you said, he can say “look out for only yourself”

As someone who loves the content that dave and Jon have put out, it’s pretty saddening that one of the few times they drop the ball it’s with one of my favorite Star Wars characters

Definitely better than what we got. I specially like how you handled cad bane in comparison to how awfully they wasted him in the actual show

I like that your version reconciles the fact that all throughout his life Boba has been moulded and manipulated by other people, usually for their own gain, with him finally deciding he's going to be who he wants to be, not what anyone else wants of him.

I'd love a video on a second season! If you're going into Fennec's backstory, you should know there's a character in The Force Awakens named Crockind Shand, a member of Kanjiklub, who were once slaves of the Hutts on Nar Kanji. If you want, her being part of a people once enslaved by the Hutts could make a good motivation in leaving the cold-blooded crime world behind and being more merciful with Boba.

It sucks so hard that the fans always bake up a wayyyy better story than these supposed "professionals"... like damn, it is SO frustrating that we're stuck with these mediocre stories for the current canon! lol I do believe your story sounds way more entertaining than Book of Boringfett... Great job!

God I hope Jon and Dave somehow stumble upon this video one day and decide to give us something similar if they make a season 2. I love Temeura Morrison, and he deserved so much better than what they gave him in this show. I get that COVID probably screwed over a lot of the production but still, there are no excuses for a the biggest franchise in the world with infinite funds putting out such a steaming piece of garbage. They have deaging tech, so why they didn't deage Tem for Jango flashbacks or Empire Era Boba is lost to me. Even Daniel Logan, who I don't think is a great actor but that's beside the point, would have easily came back to play Young Boba in a few scenes. Mando should have been no where near this show, neither should Black K. Why we got K and not Bossk and Dengar will always confuse me. Its almost like Filoni was too busy wetting himself over the possibility of bringing over some obscure comics character that he completely forgot of the ones that were already established to even the oldest of fans. Also, reuniting Din and Grogu this early (especially in TBOBF) is one of the worst creative decisions I've possibly ever seen play out on screen. Completely retracts the epicness of The Mando S2 finale. Great video as always man... sometimes I wonder what the hell goes on behind LF's creative doors. Who okays this stuff? Theres got to be one person smart enough to stand up and say "sorry, this is dogshit"

I think a more interesting angle might be one of order and freedom. Feels a little eh of it being about boba “not getting the job done”. could be interesting for star wars, because in a way, bounty hunters represent an ultimate freedom, taking the contracts they like and doing as they like, loose canons, the pirate life. and we can see the opposite of the “empire” in this in reckless cowboyism. making it ”boba is free from bane” (that is free from what?) just kinda feels a bit awkward and manufactured for a clean package. I think it makes more sense that boba championing having a code of honor, a sense of order, in comparison to banes flexibility for an end goal is more interesting. because I think there is a sense of “freedom” in bounty hunting. Thats the motivation there, making it and making it by yourself, the motivation is one of freedom and self mastery. in a Batman’s joker sort of way. But of course, that sort of absolute freedom has consequences. so I think the last words being “im free from you” kind of circumvents the point. Its not that boba choose to be free, but he choose the chains that bind him.

24:04 I actually got a little chill when I realised what you did there and that made me think about what the impact of that scene might’ve been if it was in an actual show similar to the one you described. Your point is definitely been made about how the potential of a character was wasted and it baffles me how small Favreau’s vision, ultimately, was for such a beloved character. Great stuff. Great channel.

I love your arc for Boba. Reminds me a bit of Daud's arc in Dishonored.

I Wonder if He’s gonna do this with The Flash? 🤔

The Jango Fett video game is in line with what you have suggested here. By the end of the game, Jango wanted an exact clone of himself so he can teach him how to be like him but BETTER (spiritually). In fact, he only allowed the clones to be based off of him specifically so he could negotiate then also making an exact clone, which would have been IMPOSSIBLE to negotiate otherwise, it would have been extremely expensive and considered a waste of resources

I really like your take on what this show could have been.. Super interested to see what the second season would have been. :)

I think making boba wear the black clothing is a bad choice because it makes boba look fatter. If he wore his normal clothing under the tuskin robes he could have just thrown them off put his armor on and look the same as he did in the OT. I personally think that the armor is not the only thing defining boba but it’s what he wore, what his character depicted him to be. Having him as a “bigger” character changes what we saw him as so long ago

This was an excellent rewrite. Bonus: you spoke with enthusiasm and clarity, no doubt due in part to the repeated polishing of your script. Apart from suggesting you said “thrall” when my Emperor meant “fray”, this humble Imperial servant has no notes. Well done sir.

See in my version it would've started at a flashback with some memories of Jango talking to Boba giving him advice. Then to the book as he was feeling nostalgic for his father as it would've pushed to him try and live more respectful this time. I do like how you incorporated Cad Bane though as I do love a story of a rivalry/mentor experience though I would've added that Cad Bane was taught by Jango or at least given more pointers on how to fight and show some of his more animosity to being second best to Boba's father. While also showing the respect he still had for the man as he would've been safe guarding Jango's armor for boba fett at 13 and would play out similar to the same deleted scene but ends at a draw of shorts with both injured but out of respect and a final favor has Cad leaving Boba in peace only that once. Then cuts to him recruiting former bounty hunters, journeymen protectors and so forth even the nikto biker gang. Would've also brought back his ex-wife and daughter from legends or maybe even make Fennec his ex-wife as a foil for why he helped her contrived I know but it's how you use that it could at least be made more natural like Boba now trying to make amends and become a better person.

man, This is gold!

- 10-12 episodes. - varied flashbacks in each episode, from many points in his life, informing his actions and motivations in the present, kinda _Lost-_ style, such as… - who Jango was… not just a bad guy. - Boba reckoning with being a clone. - why is Boba so bad to begin with? - introduce Cad Bane. - maybe something with Mace Windu? - I think the Tusken arc gives him a question to Tatooine…

Any idea why they didn't bother with flashbacks and just started from when he escaped from the Sarlaac pit and then dealt with how he recovered and rebuilt himself until witnessing Din travelling back with his armour on his speederbike? Just focus on how and why he ended up utrning up on Tyhton to recover his armour, how he got it repaired and after helping Din and co get aboard Gideon's ship he left and what he did until picking up Fennec to go back to confront Bib Fortuna on Tatooine. So rather than taking over Jabba's Crime Cartel he uses it as his base to establish himself since there's what five years or so where we have no idea what he has been doing after all!

I'm really glad you didn't include the pikes. They are too much of a forced villian faction that feels like a cheap knockoff of the black suns without any character, and that we're only told they should be feared but never shown why anyone should.

My Personal Rewrite (This was written before the video so sorry if anything is very similar) Although I'm unsure how the episode structure of these Disney Plus series' work due to budget and other factors I won't have a definite number of episodes for this season.Ideally I would want to 12 but at minimum I'd say 9; Wandavision had 9 so why shouldn't this series been capable of 9. My version of the series will have a significant focus on Boba evolving over time and the gang war story will be more sidelined and will simply be in place to further Boba's development. I would structure the series into 3 parts so it's more like an actual book which the title suggests.The 3 parts will be teenager boba slightly older from TCW,Adult boba in his bounty hunting prime and then the post sarlacc Boba we saw in the series. The purpose/meaning of the series will be based around the life of Boba and how much his life was impacted been a misguided child in the galaxy without a father figure to guide him whilst also showing the life impacts of been raised by toxic and manipulative individual or rather individual. Episode 1-2/9(or 1-3/12): Teenage Boba Fett These Episodes would essentially be the unfinished clone wars arc but with further expansion.Boba will be similar to Clone Wars with a larger enpathis on his wellbeing.Boba will be established to appear brave and fearless whilst having a layer of honor and innocence beneath him.We'll see how how his father still has a significant influence on his life encouraging him to be honourable and still been young having a layer of inocence.This lonely but respectful boy is shattered by the influence of Cad Bane.Cad Bane will be established to the primary antagonist through the full series despite not appearing in all episodes but will still have a haunting presence on Boba.Cad Bane's ruthless and merciless way on bounty hunting and life in general severely affects Boba due to his lack of maturity to truly understand Bane.Boba initially begins to develop an urge to kill Bane due to his lack of empathy to others but Bane's influence creates a real killer instinct inside of him.Boba no longer wants to kill Ban due to his mentality but rather because he wants overthrow Bane to prove himself that he isn't just an useless clone.The same deul happens between the two of them with the new implementations in place.Boba keeps the blaster dint on his helmet as a permanent reminder of who he needs to prove is superior than. Episodes 3-4 (or 4-6/12) These episodes will explore Boba in the prime of his bounty hunting life and will be the classic boba that most imagined him to be.Through these episodes we see how much Bane has influenced Boba essentially transforming the youthful son of Jango into a carbon copy killer which Bane was.Boba is shown to be a ruthless killer and even torturing others just for the sake of his reputation.Boba also always chooses to work independently refusing the help of anyone.Boba Fett has become a notorious name that strikes fear into people's hearts.During these episodes Boba is working for a brand new crime organisation that is just as heartless and selfish as he is. Episode 5:The Tusken Tribe (or episode 7/12) Boba is shown in a flashback to have been druged before been thrown in the sarlacc which explains how he was easily defeated in ROTJ.The poison lasts a continuous amount of time whilst in the sarlacc which makes him rexprience his full life and reconsider what he has become.Boba escapes the sarlacc after a year. Essentially the same as the series with a few changes.When they find boba the tuskens don't hold him like a traditional prisoner but rather keeping him as company showing him respect hoping he'll respect them which he eventually does.Instead of killing the beast in the desert the tuskens tame it and the beast develops a strong bond with Boba.Through the Tuskens welcoming the beast Boba begins learning about how to correct his merciless ways.Boba spends 4 years with the tuskens. Episode 6: Boba finds Fennec/Boba ruling Tattooine/present day (Or Episode 8:finding Fennec and Episode 9:Boba present day/ruling tattooine.) Episode 7: The Ruler of Tattooine (or Episode 9 and 10) Essentially the mos espa storyline but obviously improved which I don't care to develop on too much.Boba would clearly struggle to balance his rage.The major change is that instead of the Pykes been the villains it is the criminal organisation Boba worked for in the bounty hunter boba fett episodes. Episode 8:The Return Of The Mandolorian (Or Episode 11) The episode was perfection and can be incorporated into the themes of the series of honour and fatherhood. The Cobb Vanth/Cad Bane scenes will be added at the end and Vanth would actually die. Episode 9 (12): The Battle Of Mos Espa Boba and crew expect the attack to be at the palace to kill him. Bane reveals he killed the Tusken Tribe Boba is forced due to peer pressure to let Bane sit in the palace to have a civilised conversation with Bane. Bane and Boba both talk about their history and Bane explains that he disappeared because he was proud Boba was there to be a young replacement to fill his place in the galaxy and he explains he is back to relight the killer instinct. The team are caught off guard when the attack happens at mos Espa. The final battle is the same with improved action but Tusken Raiders show up to help The Boba vs Bane fight is the same but now has much more depth and meaning. Boba thanks Din for been a reminder of what he can be become and respects his code of honour Boba then warns Din of the danger that leaving a child can have on their future and explains how his life for 30 years was ruined due to thr absence of his father.Boba also tells him it was in fact the jedi who killed his father which builds tension in his Din's mind. Boba Fett is no longer a name which creates fear but is a name which is a reminder or strength and power.The people of Tattooine chant "Boba Fett" as Boba dramatically puts his helmet on in victory.

This is great!

Oh yes more than one season and actually explain stuff, that I heartily agree with!

This was 1000 times better than what we got. What we got was a product push out for the masses with no thought. What you told understood the character and made the character grow

Great improvement! It ties so many loose ends and is more emotionally satisfying than what happened on screen. Your story could have expanded the Star Wars universe and explored the character of Boba as well as the world of the other iconic bounty hunters and the Hutts. Disney has shriveled the Star Wars universe to a hollow shell of the OT and prequels. No imagination and too much preoccupation with political messaging or fear of who might be offended.

This is amazing other than that the hutt council was killed by vader in the comics

dude i know you said you weren't going to, but I'd love to see your plans for a potential season 2. I'm taking this as headcanon whenever boba shows up again lmao

"Wasted Opportunities" is a theme in movies, shows, comics, etc. the last decade or so...

Now I really wish we got that unfinished clone wars arc as the flashbacks in the book of boba fett

19:40 final one, seems like it would be a good show, but while Boba Fett is usually cold hearted he’s been shown to have a softer side, like when he spared the equivalent of his brother almost mid way into the empires rule, if you haven’t checked out that story it’s amazing, it starts with Jango being sent to kill one of his own clones, it should be canon like the Jango Fett game

Wow. I love this. I usually dislike fan rewrites because of how corny or fan service-y they are but this is awesome. I love the tie-ins with Bane. It rhymes, like poetry

Your story jumped by 2 points automatically for me just by removing those Tusken Raiders. I liked this rewrite.

I like this, my only critique that I think could add to Boba’s story is if Jango is made a true Mandalorian again, kinda like in the EU, where he was at one point a Mandalorian of well repute to some splinter group who then became a bounty hunter and later the genetic father of the clones as a way to funnel money to the mandalorians. I think it could better solidify Boba’s drive to regain some sense of honor versus the pull of temptation to give in and become like Bane because it’s easier.

This is an amazing, common sense rewrite! Fans seem to understand the charcters and stories better than the creators

A while ago I had an idea for the Mod Gang. One, they're slaves barely out of their teens. I mean, Tatooine runs on slavery. And no selfrespecting crimelord would let another gang cause a mess in their territory, especially not such a smalltime gang as them. Stealing water without conequence my hiney. So, they're slaves. Two, their cybernetics were forced on them by their owners. These kids are expendable tools as far as the crimelords are concerned. Three, their tricked out hoverbikes are escapism. A little sliver of freedom that the crimelords tolerate as long as it not gets in the way of their profits. I mean, Anakin was allowed to build his own protocol droid so why not. And these bikes do go fast. So after Boba Fett gets his moral compass readjusted by the Tusken Raiders he meets the Mods out in the desert getting drunk and racing their hoverbikes. They tell stories about daily hardships in Mos Espa, or in short, slavery sucks. Boba promises change but they just laugh at him. They do not fear him, they do not respect him. His name means nothing anymore, he's become a joke. He tells them he will keep his word nevertheless. Then one of the kids gets executed. He got a bit too cocky and took too much from his boss. Now he's put on display to send a message to Mos Espa. Don't cause problems. You are expendable property. This only galvanizes Boba's resolve and he goes on a murder spree where he takes out every criminal who stands in his way. The other modders see this and they decide to join him. "He fights for us, we have to fight for him!" Slowly the people of Mos Espa rally behind Boba. Then Tusken Raiders arrive. The show ends with the people of Mos Espa together with the Tusken Raiders chasing the last of the crimelords to a starship, lead by Boba on a Rancor. Because why not. To rule with fear is to know who to scare and who not. In Hutt Space Boba Fett's name is spoken in fear, but the people of Tatooine say it with pride and respect in their voice. The closing scene brings in Cad Bane who gets hired by the Hutts to end Boba Fett's life at any cost. This is a space western. In season one you chase all the vermin off the planet. In season two you have the epic showdown and the consolidation of power by Boba.

I really like the direction you took with Boba Fett. Unlike the writers for Disney, I expect protagonists to undergo character arcs. You made Boba sympathetic and understandable, and managed to tie the threads of his story from the Clone Wars and OT together while still taking him to new places.

Hell of a lot better then what we got!

I can’t believe that the writers didn’t retell the story of Yojimbo a.k.a. A Fistful of Dollars a.k.a Last Man Standing.

Boba Fett and Fennec hunting down Max Rebo episode 2

My version of the show would have been similar to yours but would also see Boba following in his Mandalorian ancestors footsteps by becoming a Journeyman Protector and leading his own company of Mandalorian police. Just like his father's mentor.

"I don't think people will agree with the direction I took the story" Me contemplating what would've been on the levels of Andor's story stelling

A WHILE ago when the sequels just ended their run, me and à couple of friends tried to "rewrite" (the only character we ended up keeping was finn) them. Anyways, the basic idea of the third movie was the "resistance" (not the new republic) running from system to system desperately trying to unite the "7 great syndicates", groupes of outlaws/bounty hunters/what have you, which were more or less the only forces able to stand a chance against the remnants of the empire, led by, of course, thrawn. Anyhow, the great syndicates where led by Rotta the hut, the Pykes, and the Fett syndicate. To make a long story short, we originally planned for each movie to have a different mentor for the main character, the first one was Luke, and the second was Boba (the idea was Luke would teach nobility and so on, and Boba would teach the idea that getting the job done was the most important part, by any means necessary) but as said previously we ended up scrapping it. We kept trying to make him a character but eventually realized that honestly Fett rocked, but he wasn't really interesting. We figured out that we much preferred Boba as just a stoic silent gun than a "character" like in the clone wars so just made him a cool, shittalking warlord that hater the Hutts and basically ran his own mercenary guild because he could. Anyways I'm going to get buried but I love the idea sheev!

I am glad to see someone actually say a way in which this show could work and not just insult it.

it would be neat to have bobo taking a bounty over the course of the show it would slowly hint hes chasing the mandalorian and as he does it he goes on an arc where he begins to become more and more honorable and at the end of the show he fights mando and after a difficult fight they find a mutual understanding and decide to go their own ways maybe one of them will come back again maybe not

Wait wait wait- Holographic book that Jango left behind for Boba? Wasn't that in a Boba Fett book series based between Ep. 2 & 3??? Dude, that would've been such a cool inclusion! That book series was one of my favorites growing up and I'd love to see it actually played out on screen 😩😩😩 Edit: Now that I've finished the video, I very much prefer this take on what The Book of Boba Fett could've been and would very much love to hear your follow up Season 2 idea for this story. Like, don't get me wrong I loved getting to spend time with the Tusken's and us getting to see them for more then what we've been usually given in the shows and movies, BUT this is definitely a better take on why Boba is so different from the OT and now. More Tusken content could be given to us at a later time, maybe even having Boba come to some kind of agreement with them and treating them like actual people to better his territory in a way no one else, Jabba for example, ever bothered to do

This is great.

Definitely like this version more.. wouldnt be my ideal season but definitely one i wouldve loved it n accepted it. Im just glad that u show actual growth in character AND consistency from s2 mando cause thats my biggest annoyance.. also would keep grogu with luke for a little linger then just 1 episode n then basically undue the high note of s2 finally.. makes it have no impact if he just came right back.. especially if niw going into s3 of mandalorian its basically a must to watch those 3 final episodes of boba fett

It's decent at the very least, which is much more than I can say about the show we got. It makes much more sense and follows up threads as far back as TCW.

Hat tip to your use of Tales of the Bounty Hunters!

Nah, that'd be too good. It needs more cyberpunk greasers on vespas. The black wookie was cool though. Seriously, your story had heart. Its like this is the outcome they wanted, but told it all backwards.

Speaking on your big bounty idea from the beginning; what if said bounty was for Mando or that awful green abomination? Now I think both shows are awful and should not exist within the Star Wars universe, but I’m working with what I have here. Also, having watched the video fully now I can comment on your take. I definitely wouldn’t take it the same direction you did, however I think you managed to create a very interesting and compelling narrative working within the limitations you set for yourself. Personally I’d have preferred the show to keep the badass cold blooded killer boba fett going around mercing fools, but whatever lol. Good job.

If I kept the Tuskegee raiders I would have had an army of tuskens that show up to assist Boba. Possibly the leader and(or that one kid) survive convince the other tribes to help.

Cad doesn’t die in the first duel with Bobba obviously, but it is where he gets the metal plate installed into his head

For me, I'd take the other famous bounty hunters from the movies and shows and take story cues from a manga called Sakamoto Days. Which is about an assassin that has retired and settled down but his former colleagues (for various reasons) refuse to let him leave without a great deal of trouble, violent trouble. I'd have a version of Boba Fett that, like in the show wants to retire (and honestly you'd need no better reason than what happened in episode 6, as you said, that would rattle anyone) but in this context we'll do some (hypothetical) world building into the culture of Star Wars bounty hunting and say (like Sakamoto Days) it's a profession that you never retire, you do it until you die, or the job kills your. And the act of trying to leave causes conflict with these former bounty hunter colleagues causing Boba Fett to have to fight tooth and nail to preserve his new way of life. I like this as an idea because it allows for conflict and for Boba to really examine his life and wonder if it's worth it. You can even see him change throughout the show where at first perhaps he kills the hunters sent after him without batting an eye but over time begins to hesitate and even refuse to kill then, this hesitation could even be used to put him in some tough spots and display the kind of intellect he had in the OT but having to use his brain. It also allows for some enemies to become allies and vice versa.

Honestly, it works. 7/10, with a bonus 11/10 for no slow ass tank droids.

I just hope that we get another season so they can make the show better.

A Boba fett live action revenge story would be very cool

Boba should also have spare armor on his ship (like the EU, at least the pre-prequel EU) established. That way we get a Fett who looks like Fett, the armor doesn’t have to be a paint by numbers duplicate, it’s just iconic armor that we expect him to be in.

Basically, your approach to fan rewrites is the classic EU approach of "yes, and...". And I love it.

I love this so much.. why can’t we get competent writers for any of star wars instead of people that go “wouldn’t that be cool haha?” And that’s it

One thing you didn't justify was how Boba's helmet has a dent since it's been retconned into beskar rather than draftees. We see in Mando season that beskar can survive a direct shot from a star destroyer laser with no damage whatsoever (the spear).

I think the series had a lot of good ideas that were underused. I'm also guessing that the budget was pretty limited compared to the Mandalorian and that's why they stick to pretty much just Tatooine, so I'll do that too. If I were to rewrite it, I would start it off with Boba escaping the salac pit, Jawas stealing the armor and Boba ending up with the sandpeople. This would be the present time for most of the series. I think him beeing their worker in exchange for food and shelter could work. It could be explained that he couldn't leave, because he had no way out of the desert. He could still save the tusken child in self defense and be accepted into the tribe slowly afterwards. I would spend more time with them, scavenging, hunting, capturing banthas, learning to fight with a gaffy stick, connecting with the tusken child, making his own gaffy stick. These scenes could be paired up with flashbacks to his past with his father, maybe other young clones and the bounty hunters. In the fourth episode the spice train plot could happen. It doesn't have to be a spice train, but something attacking the sandpeople, Boba doing something about it, without thinking about consequences and it leading to the sand people beeing killed. I think something smaller scale then the Pikes would be better, maybe just Bib Fortuna. I'd connect him beeing absent for the slaughter to him going after the flares, finding Fennec and bringing her to the cybernetics guy. While she is beeing operated/recovering, he returns to the village and finds the dead sand people. He then returns to Fennec and asks her to help him get his armor back for his revenge. They hear of Cob, but Boba comes too late and sees Din leaving with his armor. To track down Din they get the Slave 1, maybe a bid more stealthy then in the series. We see the ship jumping to hyperspace and the next episode starts with the ship returning to Tatooine after The Mandalorian Season 2 finale. In the next two episodes we could then see Boba recruting other bounty hunters to overthrow Bib, promising to treat them better. These bounty hunters would be people he and/or Fennec know already and that either owe him one or don't like Bib. The finale could then be them taking over the palace. Most of the 2 1/2 episodes that were pretty much just the Mandalorian 2.5 should just be part of the 3rd season of the Mandalorian. A scene of Din entering the new place of his clan could be the credit scene or just a shot of Grogu meditating with Luke.

Here is my REWRITE. I will carve a new path for the season but start in a familiar way. Episode 1- The Rising Suns Cold open to the sail barge fight just as Boba is struck by the vibrostaff. Boba POV as he falls into the mouth of the pit beast. Boba falls deep into the stomach of the beast and hits his head on the head of a skiff guard. Blackout. Cold cut to a flashback where Boba and Bane are in their famously scrapped showdown. The two have their preamble. Bane: “You’re about to learn a dangerously valuable lesson Boba.” Boba says nothing and the scene pans out according to the preliminary animation. Pan over Boba as he’s laid out on the ground and as he jolts back up from his K.O, he wakes up in the stomach of the beast. Boba uses a vibroblade to cut through the stomach of the beast and allow sand to fill in the beast’s stomach. The beast then regurgitates Boba much like the comics and he lies on the sand for says, long after the sand beast has died due to internal bleeding. Boba’s armor is scavenged and he manages his way back to the palace in order to gather himself and his ship. Fett would learn that the palace is suffering from massive infighting and looting. In the midst of the madness, Boba must retrieve his ship and seek out local scrappers for his armor. This is when he gets a life signature on the edge of the dune sea and find Fennic. Episode 2: Generations of Allies. Boba would heal Fennic and tell her about his father and Zam. Boba would let Fennic know he needs her to help him find his armor, and until then, she was at his mercy. The series from then on out would be Fennic and Boba searching the desert planet before hearing about Mos Pelgos, meeting the sheriff, and tracking Din down.

i wouldn’t be surprised if the cad bane boba fett stuff happens in bad batch season 2

eh, idk if i think boba becoming a good guy is optimal. id much prefer that he develops more grizzled mobster honor thing where he is all about respect, doing good turns in kind, and the same with bad one, and doing business seriously otherwise. much more of a rogue cowboy then a sheriff. think like a spartan or a samurai sort of deal. brutal and not afraid to get his hands dirty, but prides himself on his conduct and only respects others who show merit too. caring little for innocents in themselves, but only those who have earned his respect. ending with him being a grey element, both being able to work with heros and villains as he sees fit. I really dont want a pigeon holed goody-two-shoes boba, I think its kinda antithetical to his whole appeal, and isnt really up that characters, or jango’s, alley. his tension with Cade could be more of a sleazy do anything guy vs a stick to your word guy. going more ““No friend ever served me, and no enemy ever wrong me, whom I have not repaid in full.”

I liked this a lot but in book of boba I liked the tusken plot line and especially the rancor parallel

I would have taken it all the way back even further. Show him leaving Geonosis during the end events of Attack of the Clones. Show his dad's bounty hunter friends take him under their wings. Show him initially struggle to be brutally efficient in his first bounty hunt, but build himself into closing his heart to the suffering of others. Show him taking a bounty from Darth Vader himself. I would have just taken it all the way back before the original trilogy began.

I wish Dengar showed up and saved him after he escaped the Sarlac pit, Dengar doesn't even have to be around much more after that, I just wish Dengar was a character

Great rewrite!

For the book of Boba Fett, I would've did this different have Mando still up here, but only to help boba in him and mando would fight cad bane. Boba will get the dark sabre in kill bane with it. Boba would help lead mandalor with mando as he reunites the people thus it leads to season 3 of mando. So no grogu in the show he's only mentioned

I would have him re-discover more of his father and Jango's code

I agree completely, this would have been good, and I never cared about Bobba as a character. He was just some Bounty hunter that Darth Vader mildly reprimanded and was unceremoniously knocked into a Venus fly trap by a blind guy.

In my version of The Book of Boba Fett, it is simply just called "Boba Fett" and is 8 episodes, with only one of which being set after The Mandalorian season 2. The series would then be structured as follows; Chapter 1 begins with Boba being dragged into the Sarlacc and falling unconscious, remembering his life as a child with Jango, and how he trained him up to be a bounty hunter. Chapter 2, still in the stomach of the Sarlacc, sees Boba remember his life as a bounty hunter, partaking in a mission that mirrors what is yet to come, it also shows some animosity between him and Jabba’s majordomo Bib Fortuna.. In Chapter 3, Boba finally escapes the Sarlacc, but his victory is short-lived as Jawas soon take his armour, followed by Tusken raiders who imprison him, but Boba ends up saving them unintentionally in an act of self-preservation. After some time since the events of Chapter 3, in Chapter 4, Boba is now training with the Tuskens, earning their respect and becoming a member of their tribe, as well as introducing Bib Fortuna as a series antagonist. Now being a fully fledged member of his Tusken tribe, Chapter 5 sees Boba fight with a rival Tusken warrior and solidifies his place as one of the Tuskens. In Chapter 6, we see Boba do many things with his tribe, showing the feeling of family he now has, and also feeling like a sort of calm before the storm. Chapter 7 sees the slaughter of Boba’s tribe at the hands of Fortuna, who were a financial burden on his allies, and Boba living life alone in the desert, remembering his past and everything he has lost, bringing him to a very low point in his life before he finds and rescues Fennec Shand. Finally, in Chapter 8 we see Boba team up with Din Djarin, as well as Cobb Vanth and the people of Mos Pelgo in a battle against Fortuna’s men, with the episode ending with Boba and Fennec entering Fortuna’s throne room and Boba killing him. Other than the main two flashback episodes, there would be other flashbacks scattered throughout the other five episodes which aren’t the series finale to do with Boba’s life as either a bounty hunter or growing up with Jango sprinkled throughout the series.

8:10 great so far with the set up, except the aftermath books although canon don’t really make sense, there’s no way the empire would fall in only a year

Actually Rotta isn't considered an adult until he is 200 years old so your point makes sense within the lore

Even a John Wick in space would have been more competent, than what we got. I can't understand why these character assassination projects seem like good fan-retention ideas to Disney.

I view Boba as lawful evil and I don't think that he needs to be a good guy or even an anti hero. He is what he is and he is not ashamed of it. He is what his father taught him to be, a hunter with a code of honor and is good enough for me. Now I just need a show where the most famous bounty hunter in the galaxy actually collects bounties!

I would just like to see more footage of Boba Fett escaping the sarlacc. It went by too fast in BoBF.

Him hunting Jedi as revenge or as a bounty and somehow getting killed by Mando or something

I figure why try to reinvent the wheel? We have seen a career killer try to leave that world behind only to get pulled back in and having to fight their way to the top. It's John Wick. We don't need a noble character, just one that resonates with the audience. I'm not one for gratuitous violence and action for the sake of action, but trying to bend a pre-existing character into a role they're not fit for is a recipe for disaster. Boba's not a hero, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's a villian. Give him something to care about that isn't forced, and then have it taken from him. For Wick it was his wife, and her last act of love. For Boba it can be anything from his father's legacy to a close friend or work partner or a protegee or son like figure. I think abstract is the way to go with it, as to not copy John Wick 1 to 1. Also, despite liking John Wick 1 the other movies fall flat because they lose site of the emotion and heart of the first entry. Something best avoided for a series likely intended to run for multiple seasons.

Hire this guy NOW to remake the boba Fett show!

4:00 actually Jango Fett was all about Honor, and money, so Boba would have a sense of honor, if not small, in honor of his father and his teachings

The most important part of this rewrite is live action Hondo

I only disagree with Fet refraining from killing when he can star wars isn't a superhero universe were killing could only be justified is self defense. I think focus should be more on Boba's honor, and honor already involves not killing innocent people

I feel like some more reworks should’ve been done on the series. I should mention that ya kinda missed the fact that Fennec Shand was only alive because of Boba Fett

Imagine this in movie form
