Star Wars Interpretation is our ongoing series, and we delve into the latest Star Wars shows, movies, trailers, and news stories to predict the future of the franchise. This entry examines the best content in the Disney Boba Fett documentary film Under the Helmet.

How stupid we love Boba Fett. The Empire Strikes Back has only four brief bounty hunter dialogues. The total time of his movie screening is six minutes and thirty-two seconds. At the end of "Return of the Jedi", his head was hit and he fell into the Sarlacc pit, and the final gasp was drowned out by the monster's humorous hiccups.

any. Boba Fett looks so cool. More than forty years after he was introduced (this is not in the Empire Strikes Back, nor in the Star Wars holiday special-don’t worry, we’ll cover it later), we can’t shake the Galactic Gunner. He is more than ever Both are more popular, and there are still a few weeks before they finally have their own personal series "The Book of Boba Fett".

On Disney Day, streaming media services attacked us with a series of commercial advertisements, including the Obi-Wan Kenobi series and a series of assets of Marvel Pictures. People seem to be excited about most of it, but perhaps the most pleasing is the least flashy mini documentary "Under the Helmet: Boba Fett's Legacy."

You may be proficient in most of what this short document says. However, I was shocked by a few interesting takeaways that were brand new to me, or slightly different from what I had heard before. I left under the helmet with six notable tidbits. Some people talked about why Boba Fett remained an idol for decades after his creation, while others paid tribute to the many creators who helped shape the bad guys.

Boba Fett was not created as a bounty hunter. Initially, the armor was white. Concept artists Ralph McQuarrie and Joe Johnston (who will direct "Rocketer" and "Captain America: The Avengers") designed it as an upgraded stormtrooper suit. These guys should be real heavy hitters, soldiers that the empire summons when it needs to hit a target.

After they made prototype garments, they found that mass production was too expensive. Therefore, one hundred orders were reduced to one. This did not arouse Geroge Lucas's disgust at all. He almost immediately renamed the character as a bounty hunter. Cowboys, especially spaghetti western cowboys, are his jam.

According to Pete Wilmoor, a senior writer at Lucasfilm, the reason why we reacted so strongly to Boba Fett has to do with his T-visor helmet. It is reminiscent of the Middle Ages, an era of swords and magic. It is mysterious in the subconscious, and aesthetically matches the question of who or what is under the suit.

Joe Johnston can't remember who came up with the T-shaped sun visor design. All he knew was that he and Ralph McQuarrie exchanged sketches back and forth, and someone suggested to do so. After inserting the T-shaped visor, there have been some changes here and there, but in most cases, the character has changed very little since then.

Once decided to make Boba Fett a bounty hunter instead of a soldier, Johnston sprayed silver on his costume and painted it with the color of the railroad. Then he left a scar on the face paint, revealing the metal underneath, suggesting the rude lifestyle of the blaster.

The task of sound designer Bun Burtt was to host a production video that showed the white Boba Fett armor for the British crew across the pond. In it, you can see him shyly highlighting many weapons hidden throughout the suit. This is the flamethrower on his glove. Here, we have a "quite deadly" dart device. On his knees, these also shoot darts. Then he looked at the people off the camera, wondering if he was right or just made up when he left.

Duwayne Dunham was the first person to wear a Boba Fett suit. He comes from the editorial department and only has proper measurements. Something was wrong with him. George Lucas said, "He needs a cloak." Then they brought a Star Wars merchandise to complete his look, a beach towel.

Whether Boba Fett stumbles, we can hear his spurs clink. This sound effect was originally a joke by Ben Burtt. He said that if George Lucas wanted him to be Clint Eastwood's cowboy role, he should sound like one. To his surprise and pleasure, Foley artist Robert R. Rutledge took the comment seriously and produced a sound classic. If he knew how excited we would be when we caught those Spurs in The Mandalorian years later.

Boba Fett did not appear in "The Empire Strikes Back" for the first time. It is not the first time he has appeared in a cartoon in the middle of the Star Wars holiday special. Do not. About a month before the turkeys appeared on TV, Boba Fett was walking on the streets of George Lucas’s hometown during a parade in Marin County, California. The director wanted his neighbors to be excited for the sequel, so he gave them a surprise.

Duwayne Dunham put on this suit again, and this is the one actually used in "The Empire Strikes Back". He partnered with Darth Vader, and the two strolled the streets, signing autographs for fans. Obviously, the children knew who Lord Sith was, but when they saw Fett, they had questions. Wherever he went, the young people screamed. The people at Lucasfilm know that they have something special about this bounty hunter.

No one hates the Star Wars Holiday special like George Lucas, but even he must recognize its quality when he sees it. Although he has little to do with TV shows, his idea is to premiere Boba Fett in an animated cartoon. Although no one is full of praise for the live-action clips, many people at Lucasfilm are celebrating the arrival of Fett’s animation. "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" host Dave Filoni (Dave Filoni) called the "cartoon" "exquisite work" and pointed out its extreme stylization. This is his and Lucas Keep in mind when designing animation collaborations. Realism, bah.
