Boba Fett actually matched Luke albeit briefly when they were fighting but he was too caught up with him to realise Han was a threat.
Pretty sure it is Canon that he is alive but probably scarred and fucked up.
Wouldn't put it past him making an appearance in a couple of weeks. I'd also love to see more of the Bounty Hunters from ESB.
According to canon he is 'currently declared dead' (in the Sarlacc pit). They are deliberately leaving options open.
Canon has already fucked up one cool character (Darth Maul) and it took some time to slowly pull him back to respectability and finally have a final showdown with Obi Wan.
As for Fett, I think that if he was ever to return it will be as an escape from the pit but his story will then intersect with the arc that was created by SW Rebels, possibly in animated form only. -
Had a quality one on one evening with my youngest so he requested we watch Rogue One and ANH back to back.
Hats off to them for getting the continuity absolutely spot on, my boy did point out one massive issue though.....R1 gives us a great indication of just how absolutely fucken massive the Death Star is. ( Nerd Alert ) apparently each Star Destroyer is 1600 metres long ( he googled this ), they look like specs next to the Death Star ( 2016 technology vs 1977 obviously helps convey this ) so the Death Star circumference is probably a few hundred km.
How come when the Falcon is sucked in with the Tractor Beam the Landing Bay, Prison area, Tractor Beam control etc seems to be walking distance and a couple of lift rides away from each other? Surely you'd have to fly a ship to get from one end to the other.
Also in ANH Tarkin refers to testing the weapon when it's clear he did this a couple of times in R1....
The battle over Scarif is probably the best space fight in any of the flicks overall, the assault on the Death Star later on looks a wee bit empty in comparison although I guess a lot of this can be explained by the rebels losing so many command ships at the end of R1.( and technology as well )
Fucken awesome flicks the pair of them though.

Oh good, its very important to define his sexuality...pansexual. Good to know ahead of time that the SJW brigade have their hands all over this one too.
Just let star wars die already please.
I got the impression him and Han were old mates and that he wanted to dust up Leia the moment he laid eyes on her.
I'm glad someone has made me seen the errors of my ways.
I hope they can let me know if threepio is gay or just 'British'

Ffs. Lando pansexual, that new droid being concerned about "droid rights". Why can't these SJW fuckwits leave anything alone? They ruin farking everything.

Isn't ESB your favourite SW film? That was Laurence Kasdan making that comment. He wrote Lando's character in the first place.
BTW read the article, the words were put into his mouth. -

My bad, I read that as being from Laurence.
The words were put in his mouth though, so hardly as if he volunteered a position. People will often tell interviewers what they want to hear.
James Brown famously told his auto biographer that his father was indian/white and his mother Asian because it sparked interest. This was duly put in print in the opening sentences in the resulting book about the man who would 'say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud' -

No probably not. In fact definitely not.

Triggered? I'm not he one doing name calling.
It's actually the opposite. I see no issue with what was said. It doesn't matter to me one bit if someone decides to label Lando's sexuality. It quite obviously matters to you.

What I care about is these guys making the best and most entertaining films possible. What I don't appreciate is them bringing their bullshit politics into it. And btw I couldn't give a shit if it was politics I supported. This is Star Wars ffs not Fox News or CNN. It shouldn't be used as a platform for "promoting social change" or social justice activism. I know you have a kneejerk urge to always defend your side, but surely even you cant be happy about the way this is headed.

I think I already admitted I got it wrong, didn't I? I only reacted because I got the originator of the comment wrong and therefore made what I thought was a relevant post.
The way what is heading? Is it such a big deal? Certainly isn't something that makes me shout names at people.
I still enjoy watching the movies and, if you also dip deeper into the world that surrounds SW, whether recent canon or not, it has often reflected the trend of social thought in this galaxy not so far away.
If you would rather the SW universe existed solely in a galaxy stuck in 1977 then fine. Get out your VHS. -

It matters because identity politics is a cancer, and is going to cause significant problems.
I love Star Wars and don’t want that sort of shitty politics in what’s supposed to be a fun b-movie style romp.
In reality SW was elevated far above that a long long time ago. People take the films so seriously these days
