The much-hyped special, directed by self-proclaimed Boba Fett fan Seth Green, has some fun with Fett and Solo in the 30-minute television special, which aired tonight on Cartoon Network. The one-minute scene is what the LA Weekly [UPDATE: link no longer available] calls “Boba Fett in an unveiled moment alone with a frozen Han Solo.”

As of 10 pm PST, you can see the entire episode on Superdeluxe [UPDATE: link no longer available], actually courtesy of Robot Chicken, even before its scheduled airtime. Boba Fett’s scene begins 15 minutes into the episode. Fans have already been commenting on our message boards.

Behind the Scene

In March 2006, Seth Green told StarWars.com [UPDATE: link no longer available] that “the original Boba Fett that I got as a kid is still my favorite (action figure). … I always had a fascination with Boba Fett because he’s such an intriguing character. One of these days I want to have a chat with Jeremy Bulloch and ask him about how his small five-line role as been turned into a lifestyle.”

Boba Fett had a cameo in the film Can’t Hardly Wait, which features Seth Green in a lead role.

Zuckuss, one of the bounty hunters on deck with Boba Fett in The Empire Strikes Back, has a scene in Robot Chicken: Star Wars, with voice talent provided by comedian Conan O’Brien.

Spoilers

As we saw in the trailer, Boba Fett is in Slave I with Han Solo in Carbonite. “Hey, Mr. Solo. Solo on the rocks. You can’t beat me, I’m Boba Fett. I’m the greatest bounty hunter ever.”

He draws his gun, “Oh, don-don-don’t. Hah, yeah! What’s that Solo? Ol’ blasters aren’t fair? OK, dig it. No blasters.” He holsters, but then, “oh, ahh, didn’t see that one coming, did ‘ya? So slow. Thought I was over there, but guess what!” He dives head-first in a roll across the room. He pops up in front of Solo, “Oh, oh, over here.”

He tosses the gun, “a little rope and dope, rope and dope,” with clenched fists, mocking Han. “Left, right, left right! Oh! Ho, ho, down goes Solo.”

He’s out of breath and thinks Solo’s talking to him. “Huh? What’s that? What, you want a little face-to-face? Well, let me just take this bad boy off.”

He pops his helmet off. (Yup, unmasked and aged for mid-Empire.) “Oh, he’s even better looking without the helmet.”

Fett smiles, “Surprise ending. Eh, oh, you want me to come closer? Oh, you don’t want to fight anymore?” He moves closer to Han and says, “Oh, your hands are up there almost like you’re beggin’. Beggin’ for a little piece of Boba.”

Boba places his hands on Han’s, “Yeah, you like that, don’t you?” Then he starts stoking Han’s face and lips and it ends with Boba saying, “You like it cause you’re bad. Oh yeah, you dirty little smuggler.”

    It was kind of disturbing, ridiculous and damn funny at the same time, both the whole thing as well as the Boba part itself.

    But nevertheless, I’d love to see more, heh. :D

    Here’s the full video – it’s funny. Take it with a grain of salt – it questions the proclivities of our Mandolorian leader.

    I saw that one BobaFett scene, it was funny at first, then when Boba started to be gay with Han Solo in carbinite, it got to far!!!!! BobaFett is my favorite, why the hell did [adultswim] do that! If you don’t know why I just said that statement, watch the star wars robot chicken episode.

    It was funny ad weird at the same time

    I saw this when they aired it and I’m not entirely sure they were intending Boba Fett to really be gay, but more of Boba thinks he’s so unbelievebly sexy that even Han Solo frozen in carbonite would be unable to resist his bounty hunter charms. I thought the whole Robot Chicken Star Wars was histerical. They had these clips inbetween the animation segments of Seth Green and the other actors that made it talking about what they made, and the comment they made about the Boba Fett scene was that they wanted the sexiest voice they could think of for Boba’s. I think that means that they just really love Boba Fett and think he’s as sexy as he really is.
