I'm not exactly sure which books and comics counted as canon in the old extended universe. It's been a long time since I read the books but I can't ever remember Boba being a mandalorian in them.
I appreciate everyone’s responses but I’m still not sure on an answer haha. I didn’t expect it to be so divisive

Your post is correct but it stops at the sarlac pit which took place around 4 or 5 ABY. He became Mandalore(leader) in 23ABY
I could care less what Disney wants to claim is Legends or Extended. That is based on what they have the rights to and nothing more. Extended(or now Legends) was around long before Disney got involved.
Is also one of the reasons he is suppose to be the main antagonist to Mando in Season 3.

Definitely Boba Fett. Listed on IMDB as Boba Fett

Fett is gonna want to kill The Child. He obviously has huge hatred for Jedi

Not a single woman in a meaningful role in E1 
That is gonna trigger some folks
But my god what a fun 50 minutes of tv. Favreau is a genius

I’d be okay with Fett just following Mando and The Child and making an appearance every other episode, then setting up an epic cliffhanger for season 3

Eventually there will be. A woman and person of color. Disney loves their progressive check boxes.

Gus Fring is the person of color and thats just fine

Disney owns all Lucas IP including all licensed Expanded Universe. They decided to wipe the slate clean on EU.
You can beat your chest about how you're right about who Boba and Jango are based on some comics from the 80s all day to no effect. It's not canon. You can even try to argue that canon vs legends is nerd talk that doesn't matter, but it'd be a bit hypocritical. These links are to complete canon for each character.
Jango Fett canon
Boba Fett canon
The canon story of what happened to Boba after the Sarlacc hasn't been revealed.

Entertaining episode, but I had one problem with it: it did not further the plot at all.
At the beginning of the episode, Mando was looking for a mandalorian to use their secret connections towards finding the Jedi. At the end of the episode, he was still looking for a mandalorian to use their secret connections towards finding the Jedi. Now he has an extra set of armor, that's it.
He gained no information or insight during the episode that helped him in any way. Nothing. He arrived at step 0 and left still at step 0. They didn't need an entire episode of filler, irrelevant material to introduce Boba in the last 60 frames.
Episode 1 was a very entertaining side quest. It did not further the plot one iota, except perhaps a 3 second shot of Boba at the end. I was hoping to not start the season with a filler episode.

I’d argue if he found what he was looking for every episode, that would be boring and rather unrealistic.
ETA: Also, it’s the first episode of the season, do we really have enough info to say it didn’t advance the plot at all?

Not every episode of every show has to be exposition filled and rush the narrative. That episode makes the universe feel real again. It has depth, there is struggle, there are characters, friendships develop, challenges are conquered.

Fett is not Mandalorian. This is known.

I’d watch an entire season of Mando drifting from town to town like Kung Fu or The Hulk, helping people and never finding another Mandalorian.

This was released by Lucas when Disney bought the rights.
quote:
Lucasfilm simply announced that the EU would be rebranded as Legends, and from then on, all novels, comic books, video games, and television shows will be on the same level of canon as the films and The Clone Wars.
It never said stuff previous written Legends would not be used but going forward it will done under Disney and Disney only.
quote:

So I guess The original trilogy have no effect today either.You are really showing your age.
For the record per Lucas/Lucasfilm since Disney purchased his rights:
quote:
Lucasfilm did say some elements from the Expanded Universe like certain characters and organizations might make it into future "Star Wars" movies, books, etc
quote:
Lucasfilm always strived to keep the stories created for the EU consistent with our film and television content as well as internally consistent
Its not nerd talk but stupid to believe one is no longer valid since Disney took over or that what is now called legends has no merit. I mean under Disney Rebels animated series is considered canon but yet the main villain is Thrawn who was solely created in the EU not by Lucas or what is considered canon. Or that Lucas used the EU concept that Hans son would turn to the darkside or that Han and Leia's wedding happened in the EU 30 years prior to what is now considered canon.
Per Lucas in 2007 8 years prior to Star Wars VII and 25 to 30 years after what I just posted said this.
quote:
“I’ve left pretty explicit instructions for there not to be any more features. There will definitely be no Episodes VII-IX. That’s because there isn’t any story. I mean, I never thought of anything. And now there have been novels about the events after Episode VI, which isn’t at all what I would have done with it. The Star Wars story is really the tragedy of Darth Vader. That is the story. Once Vader dies, he doesn’t come back to life, the Emperor doesn’t get cloned and Luke doesn’t get married…
But yet 8 years later he is creating what Disney and you call canon using stuff from EU like Thrawn or story lines from EU for the new movies. Remember story lines he had never created but there they are from the EU. So again it does not matter what is canon because all the new stuff once Disney has taken over comes a lot from what they are calling Legends now.
So until Disney comes up with a different backstory to deny what many want to except it is the true saga of both Jango and Boba the EU/Legends is what we have. Disnet has yet to discredit the EU claims on both other then I believe say Jango story about the planet he is from:
quote:
He claimed to have been born on the planet Concord Dawn, a Mandalorian world, but his exact history was unknown
That does not claim he is wrong but Disney had not yet decided their direction which could be the same and until Friday they had not updated that Boba had survived the Sarlac Pitt, which by the way was how it was written in the EU and not something original by Disney and their canon.

I will correct something I posted earlier that in the time of the Mandalorian you are correct. If Disney follows the story line of what is now now called Legends he becomes one in 10 more years. What Disney decides to this at this point is still unclear.

Does anyone think that the Mandolorian that the cyclops guy was referring to as hiding out on Tatooine was actually Bobba Fett and not The Marshall???
