I hate Disney. I hate the fact that "anyone" can be a mandalorian. I hate they said Jango isn't a real mandalorian. I hate they made mandolorians cry baby b***hes.
I hate everything fun isn't an option anymore.
I was never a fan of mandos being some weird mythic third faction in the galaxy with sacred worshiped armor bullshit.
Just have them be rich fricks that spend as much as a ship on their goofy gadget armor and leave it at that. Don't need any of this The Way shit in there at all.
Boba Fett's appeal was that he was indicative of a wider world. He worked the same way the cantina scene or Jabba's party boat worked. He was evocative. That's all.
Jango Fett was just Boba Fett with all the appeal sucked out.
> that "anyone" can be a mandalorian.
But that’s wrong. In fact, it was the old EU that had it so anyone can join their culture so there were alien Mandos, if anything the new Disney canon has made them exclusively human.
They also made Jango actually mandalorian and canonized Jaster Mereel as his father/teacher.
>I hate the fact that "anyone" can be a mandalorian.
They can't though. You either have to be born one or raised from childhood as one. Anyone can't just go and decide to be one.
> I hate they said Jango isn't a real mandalorian
He never was one. This came directly from George Lucas. The Fetts being mandalorian was something that only happened in the EU because the people who made it just made an assumption. > I hate they made mandolorians cry baby b***hes.
It was a faction in Mando culture that got wiped out before the Clone War was even done.

Odd thing to say, considering Jango is immensely more cool than Boba.

>They also made Jango actually mandalorian and canonized Jaster Mereel as his father/teacher.
They didn't though. All we have to go by is a counterfeit chain code that Boba used to show a character who was intentionally written to be ignorant of the galaxy around him. And only "jaster" was made canon. Not the full name.
>considering Jango is immensely more cool than Boba.
He really isn't. To the extent he's cool at all he's entirely derivative of Boba Fett, but with all the mystery drained and inserted into the world's dumbest assassination detective story. Granted, this also made Boba Fett himself less interesting by proxy, but I'm talking about Boba Fett prior to the prequels and particularly Boba Fett in TESB, which is where he made the biggest impression.
>He really isn't.
Except he is. >Boba Fett prior to the prequels and particularly Boba Fett in TESB >but with all the mystery drained
There was never any mystery. Boba was a villain henchman with a unique costume. That's it. Anything even remotely of interest came from EU authors with no restraint. But even then, everything they though of was cringe. Boba was never interesting. He wasn't even a character. Jango was. He was given a face, he was given implication of being a competent professional. If Boba was the foundation, then Jango was taking that, and finally making something cool out of it. They refined it and it worked. They made an actual character.
>Boba was a villain henchman with a unique costume. That's it.
Yes. That's all he needed to be. As I said, he was memorable because of his design and the context being evocative. Jango Fett is more developed but it isn't compelling, and shrinking the setting so much as a consequence was hardly worth the creation of Boba Fett But Blue. >competent professional
That's where AOTC's being utterly moronic comes into play. He only looks competent because the story is populated with stupid people chasing after a very stupid plot. Boba Fett meeting his end in slapstick wasn't much better, but there also wasn't the same pretense there.
>Yes. That's all he needed to be
Hence his not being interesting. >he was memorable because of his design
Which is a clownsuit. >and the context being evocative
Which is nothing. >Jango Fett is more developed but it isn't compelling
I do not agree. He was compelling (for what little there was) because his design and role spoke more positively of him. >shrinking the setting so much as a consequence was hardly worth the creation of Boba Fett But Blue.
Not really. Boba's initial concepts were originally meant to be a different flavor of Stormtrooper. Jango being made the template for the Clones, the precursor to the Imperial Stormtrooper, was pure pottery.
For TCW, Dave said George wanted them to have a kind of nordic vibe. Old warrior culture who raided and pillaged. Also kind of showed in that most people on Mandalore were blond haired, blue eyed white people. Then in Rebels, Dave started being less ethnically specific, but gave the implication that they were folks who were the descendats of those conquered by Mandalore. Which is how he explained why Clan Wren were Mandalorian, despite not being situated on Mandalore.
realistically any chance for the rebels to win against the empire?
they are apparently incompetent when they don't have a child of prophecy on their side.
Who is this boy?

That's the best method of creating a solid waifu.
Getting stabbed by a lightsaber barely an inconvenience

The false Mando deserves nothing but contempt.

the empire was right in wiping them out
I'm so glad she gave Baylan the map. It'd been super boring if she hadn't.

what is the fascination with two jobbers that died as soon as they showed up?
his armor looked cool, and sold well as a toy. also he was one of the few good parts of the Christmas special.

I hate mostly the fact Mandos aren't nomads and doesn't have aliens.

>I hate they said Jango isn't a real mandalorian
1. That was Lucas years before Disney
2. They retconned him back into a Mandalorian

It was pure hackery.
What were the Mandalorians originally modeled after, anyway? The Mujahidin?

If they could win on their own there wouldn't be anything for the MC to do.
