Default Boba Fett

How many people here were pissed off by Boba Fett's "supposed" death in ROTJ? I frankly hated it. Only your hardcore Star Wars fan knows that he survived, while many think that that was the end of the most dreaded bounty hunter in the galaxy's career.

I mean for crying out loud, the guy was beaten by a blind man with a stick. Anyway, I hated that part. Boba Fett is my all time favorite Star Wars character and I feel that Lucas insulted the character by doing that. In Return of the Jedi's DVD commentary, Lucas said that he originally planned of shooting a scene where Boba Fett climbs out of the pit; man I wish he did that. Opinions?

Have you read Tales from the Jabba's Palace?

It describes how Fett escapes/attempts.

I read all 3 volumes of the Bouny Hunter Wars, which tells the story of how Dengar rescued him in book 1; but I've never read Tales from Jabba's palace, I've only heard of it. Is it any good?

Boba Fett, the ALL-TIME Best Star Wars Villain Ever! - I agree 100% with you DarthVenom. That would be the best thing to see in a movie in years, Boba Fett surviving. They should make a spin-off called: "The Fetts"

Yeah! Jabba's Palace is all about the timeline of when Luke came to free Solo. It explains nearly everyone's story that participated in the events.

Even the cook for Jabba, the Rancor trainer, some of the guards. etc.

Wink Re: Boba Fett

Doesn't it tell the story of Barada? A henchman that Jabba won through gambling, who fell into the sarlacc?

Not sure, been a while since I've read it. But you could google it.

Out of curiosity, this movie's over 20 years old yet you seem to havs JUST discovored it...Is my assumption off or...

BTW, Fett's getting his own TV series. Just FYI.

Lucas has actually discussed stuff with a lot of the EU authors.
