Wolfninjajedi Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) He may not have killed Star Wars, but he killed pretty much any material for any other BH that was on board the Executor in ESB.

Jmannseelo Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) Blame Lucas for making a crappy storyline like he does with most of his movies. Dont blame the awesome Boba! Horses for courses. Personally I think Boba's "Lone Wolf and Cub" origins in AotC is far superior and shows a much deeper understanding of the character than the "Jaster Mereel, disgraced former Journeyman Protector from Concorde Dawn fighting for justice across the galaxy" garbage from the EU. Especially since Boba was modeled after The Man with No Name, who was in turn modeled after Yojimbo....the samurai tradition is consistent. But I accept that your milage may vary. However, you do realize that "the awesome Boba" is part and parcel to his "crappy storyline," don't you?

Except, of course, in Tales of the Bounty Hunters, Tales from Jabba's Palace, The Bounty Hunter Wars trilogy, Shadows of the Empire, The Yavin Vassilika, any number of the Clone Wars cartoon episodes and numerous other books, comics, games, etc... In other words, not at all. Edited January 27, 2012 by Jmannseelo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither is there any sign of new stories featuring these bounty hunters stopping any time soon. I honestly don't see where you're coming from with this at all.

bizcuits Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 .... too bad thats Jango Fett, not Boba. Actually Boba Fett is an unaltered clone of Jango Fett, therefore they are one in the same individual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't see where you're coming from with this at all. Dengar did retire, look at his bio though he does come out from time to time so I guess hes ok but theres been nothing else of him. Bossk is no where to be seen after his scrap with Han, IG-88B was destroyed way too soon and Zuckuss & 4-LOM have split up and nothing new has been made. Authors could go and do more early work, exploiting more of what these guys did before ESB but have they? No except for Bossk who has done stuff during TCW. Compared to Boba though all of them got the shaft. Edited January 27, 2012 by Wolfninjajedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even though they weren't on the Executor, Aurra Sing and Cad Bane have both had extensive use. They're both Bounty Hunters. There is more than Boba.

Jussk_Verden Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I don't mind the clones being Boba's father. They are a separate entity in themselves; Troopers. I think what killed Boba Fett (and in-turn his relationship in the greater scheme of things) is the Mandalorians. Now -those- are cheap Boba Fett knock-offs. I would have to disagree. Fett wasnt Mandalorian, he just wore the armour. He only inspired the authors to write about Mandalorians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CampusJedi Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 but it was so sad that boba fett dies because he is carrying a lousy backpack, bump into a window and POW, eaten by a sand creature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tharag Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Agreed. If A = B and B = C then Boba Fett has 1 million clones. Boba Fett may have been a clone, but he was an unaltered clone, meaning he grew up differently than the clones ... he has is own mind, personality, desires, needs and wants ... genetically they are the same, yes; personality they are completely different so your equation is wrong!

I like to think Lucas had nothing to do with or had very little input in creating Boba Fett and then ended up completely screwing it up like he did with everything else in Star Wars. I never much cared for Jango Fett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valgranth Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 70 percent of SWTOR being Bounty Hunters. Statistically that's pretty wrong. There are more Sith Inquisitors, Sith Warriors, and Jedi Knights. Fourth most popular class out of 8 is by no means 70%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XcSDeadDeer Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 If A = B and B = C then Boba Fett has 1 million clones. Well, If boba fett killed star wars, and the sarlaac killed boba fett, did the sarlaac kill star wars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfninjajedi Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Well, If boba fett killed star wars, and the sarlaac killed boba fett, did the sarlaac kill star wars? I think the sarlacc was just an innocent victim of circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
