So active he had to get Darth Vader to come in to collect his bounty.
So active he got owned by a blind man. My mom would've put up more of a fight.
The only way to square Boba's "reputation" with what was seen on screen is that the real Boba died at some point during Empire. He had a stroke whilst taking a shit after the "No Disintegrations" scene and some random stormtrooper decided he needed a lifestyle change. He gets lucky seeing the original Boba already had Cloud City dialed into Slave One's autopilot and the rest is worststory.
Its right out of a Tag and Bink comic.

When you hunt bounties you're supposed to bring them in yourself. Mando does that! He freezes them right in his own spaceship. That's because Mando is actually good at his job.
Boba did not do that. He did not do that because he's an incompetent boob. He's lucky Vader needed a guinea pig for carbonite freezing. He's also extra lucky that Vader didn't give him the Sith Neck Massage for being a lazy, greedy, self-serving shit. Now that I think about Vader should've froze Han, Chewie and Leia as hostages. If Luke didn't come with him to meet Uncle Palp, he would thaw them out with his lightsabre. Meanwhile Boba gets to find out what Bespin's surface looks like the hard way.
So we know for certain Ashoka and Boba will be in season 2.
Is it possible we see Ezra and Sabine as well, seeing as Sabine's supposed to be helping Ashoka find Ezra?

Yes. In watching Empire I observed Boba doing fuck all besides finding Han through a plot hole.
If Boba did what he was supposed to he would’ve found Han, kicked the crap out of him whilst not getting his arms ripped off by Chewie and then brought him to Vader in chains. Bonus points for not awakening Leia’s latent Jedi or chain wielding abilities.
He was hired to find the millenium falcon and to not disintegrate anyone. He did that. If he'd been the main character, I'm sure he would have had a big fight scene, but that didn't fit the plot. There were few enough big battles like that in the original trilogy, so you had to wait until the prequels for Jango to dance all around.
Either way, it'll be interesting how they use him in season 2, since I doubt it'll come down to a long drawn out fight.

a 40-45 year old man is fully capable of being active and fit, plus the guy (the actor) doesn't exactly look old to me IRL. older than 40-45, sure, but not out of the realm to think that make up or disneys cg team could make it happen. plus, in rex's case, his increased aging has him mid 50s or early 60s in rebels, of course he is showing his age.
tldr boba is happening, sry.
also, look at tom cruise. 57 years old currently, but was just doing his own stunts not even 5 years ago for mission impossible. you officially get a "wut" for your opinion.

No sense crying over spilt beer, unless you're drunk...
They did away with that lore with the explanations we have in the Mandalorian. If you don't follow the creed, or if you're shown without the helmet on, then you're not a Mandalorian, you're just a pretender.
In the case of Jango's apparant 'retcon' with this, we actually don't know if he was trained by Mandalorians any more or if he'll be rewritten as simply having killed one and took their armor and tools and potential identity. Boba's whole history hinges on whatever the Mandalorian decides to give us at this point, just like all of Mandalorian culture as we know it. It's unlikely that he would have gotten much training from Jango Fett, and we don't really know Boba's history after Jango's death. All of what we know of his history is considered legacy now.
That isn't true for all Mandalorians though. Because the clone wars, which is cannon, has shown some remove their helmets. That part is either unique to the clan or added at some point after past lore. The lore of the prequels is not going to be re-written by Disney. And we know from the movies that Jango was teaching his son some of the ways of his culture and "profession". He was a kid but we must remember he is a clone and likely had some accelerated training and stuff at the time.
Boba has lore established in the Disney era already. Also his armor is assumed to have been found and worn by Cobb Vanth which is a minor character in the Aftermath Trilogy. I don't think the armor is every stated to be from boba fett but I am going to guess that the Jawas don't scavenge much Madalorian armor on Tatooine.

You know a community is bad when moderators lock a thread because "...this isnt the place to talk about it either seeing as it will get trolled..."
There are plenty of interesting characters in Star Wars. Boba isn't one of them.

The internet. How does it work?

So an actor that has worked consistently for the last 30 years in some very big productions is somehow insignificant?
Disney has spent a shit tonne of money buffing the shit out of actors with smaller careers. I'm sure they're willing to put some work into Morrison to make him look good for the camera.
