Topic: jango's death

Boba did not die when his jet-pack went hay-wire, and the Sarlacc is much more dangerous than Mace Windu. It also states in the official "New Guide to Character" that Jango rellied on brute force, not intelligance.

Boba was obviously much better than his father, so he could survive worse. Plus the Sarlacc didnt slice off his head, it tried to digest him. Boba was still alive in the Sarlacc, but when your head is sliced off, then your gone.

I agree.

draco,what makes jango a coward?and what makes him unintelligent?because i don't see how he's either.

Jango hires assassins (Zam, Sing) do do the dirty-work that he was hired to do. He also sent his son in as a distraction. He is unintelligent because he used two wrist-rockets to kill two guards, who were running away.

Maybe he was just showing off...

One rocket, or even two blaster bolts would have down the job.

Boba uses rockets on individual people...read Death, Lies, and Treachery again.

Yes, but Jango used two wrist-rockets on two guards at the same time. One rocket would have worked just fine. Also, the guards were running away, I highly doubt that they posed much of a threat.

Jango wasn't as heartless as Boba.

If you've played Bounty Hunter, you'll realise that Jango wasn't ruthless like his clone, to a certain extent.

Jango gave people chances, Boba doesn't.

I agree with SabreMandalore here.

That does not really have anything to do with the debate, but Jango was still pretty heartless:

Police: "Put him down now."
Jango: "As you wish."

Jango then proccedes to drop him off of a belcony. That was from the game.

I thought the dropping the guy off the roof was really cool, actually. :D

So did I, I was just trying to prove a point.

And a good point it is.

Yeah guys,but a person is not judged only by one good/bad deed,but the overall good/bad deeds.

He hires people like Aura Sing. He took a job to execute a group of anarchists who were basiclly just trying to save there children. He sent his son in as a distraction against said anarchists.

in a way, i agree with Draco here. Although, i don't think Jango was a complete coward. Yes he hired people out...to me that only says that he is his own company. The empire hired people out...but that is like...a ton of people.

I was always under the impression the reason Fett hired out Zam, in order to originally prevent exactly what ended up happening.  It was, per Dooku's orders, so no one could trace the assassination back to him, and then to the Clone project, and then to Dooku.  However, that all went up in smoke when Zam got caught and he had to kill her.  If Obi-Wan had never identified the origin of the saber dart, then things would've been different.  No one would've been able to trace the assassination back to Jango.

MandalorianSpy9, the Empire did not get hired to kill people, though. Sadriel, that is true, but Jango also hired Zam, Aura, and some mercenary whoes name I do not remember on other ocassions (as stated in the New Guide to Characters).

I'll come out with it plain and simple,....it was the reek who trampled over Jango and that's what left him dazed and confused, hence not moving out of the way when Mace Windu was swinging his lightsabre. Besides, Jango relied on mainly brute force rather than wit, thats what killed him. Where as Boba is more of the type to get into your head and mess up your life, Han Solo is a sort-of-example.

That is why Jango is a terrible hunter. Boba does rely mainly on intelligence, but he puts Bossk (who is like a Sumo-wrestler on steroids) in his place on a regular baises.

But Boba is Jango's equal physically, perhaps even his better.  Combine that with his intelligence, and he's altogether better than Jango.

i agree with spideyfett here     Boba IS  better than jango...but it took some work to get himself there..if ya know what i mean.

                                                                BB*  (used to be mandalorianspy9)

There is no doubt that spidey is right. Jango is less smarter than Boba.......straight up......

TW

Wahhhhh!!!!!!!You're bad guys!You insult Bobas' father!If Boba knew it.....

We aint sayin he's dumb, we're just sayin that Boba is smarter. And its the truth.

TW

*Sniffs*You don't insult Jango?Well okay then Boba is smarter but that doesn't mean that Jango is bad,hey?Hey?

Jango's one of my favorite charecters. He'd NEVER suck!

TW

Scififreak90 and TheYautja    are the ones that came up with that idea.    I strongly dissagree....Jango is a Fett    AND   a fellow mandalorian....there is nothing about him that "sucks"...

                                                                 BB*

I made a whole freeakin thread about that. :P And according to the results........Jango doesnt suck. Cool. :cool:

TW

1. Just because you like him, does not mean that he does not "suck."
2. I hated Jango before they said anything.
3. Just because he is related to Boba does not make him great.

But he's a great Bounty Hunter. And he has killed many jedi. He's the host of all the CLONES for gods sake!!!

TW

That is biased, as is my statment is that Jango is horrible. A lot of people have killed Jedi, and where does it say that he killed many Jedi? Clones die, and they could have picked Jar Jar Binks, as you cannot clone skill.

Whatever dude.........Jango doesnt suck thats the bottom line. Period.

TW

Well, before finally being subdued, Jango killed several Jedi with his bare hands at the Battle of Galidraan, when Count Dooku's Jedi group wiped out the Mandalorian warriors.  That's chronicled in Jango Fett: Open Seasons.  One of the reasons why Darth Tyranus seriously contemplated Jango as the clone template, in the first place.  Remember, in the end, Palpatine had planned "Order 66," so he would need an army cloned from someone who could go toe-to-toe with the Jedi and hold their own, if need be.  Also, Jango trained Boba until he was killed, so all of Boba's basic foundation for training started with Jango.  As for his intelligence, he planned ahead.  He knew how dangerous he career choice was, and planned for that contingency.  Giving Boba that fighting chance to survive and thrive (hence, the book title "The Fight to Survive").  He had planned for Boba to be his legacy and to one day surpass him, which Boba eventually did.  None of it would have happened if Jango had not set down the foundation for Boba's training as a bounty hunter.

I agree....Boba wouldn't be where he is now if Jango hadn't given him the basics.  Well put Sadriel.

1st:I don't wanna hear the names Yautja and SciFifreak90 ever again....And 2nd:Hey Draco,I trully don't understand your hate with Jango...he's too great...His armor is shining and he knows how to deal with the alien scum....That's all I need.

1. They might not be banned forever.
2. Having shiney armor is unintelligent and show-off-ish, as he needs steath in his "line of work."

You might hear there names again soon.
Last thim SciFi got banned, it was like for a month or something like that.

It was for three months.

Time flies when your having fun on the boards! ;)

TW

Hmm, it seems as though I was doing something different :P .

Okay,okay guys!I don't care about them...Let them do their job and we can do ours...And Draco,if you don't like Jango I can't and I won't make you change your mind,everyone is free to tell their opinions! :D That is of course,without insulting other people to pass your opinion...(that goes to 2 persons who are banned)

I don't think the banning of Yautja and SciFifreak90 have anything to do with this topic.  Thanks.

True Sadriel, very true.........lets stay on Jango's death. ;)

TW

He should've been impaled in the chest, less traumatising :|

The traumatization is what gets ya JCT. ;) Thats the art of movie making.

TW

I like Darth Maul but I didn't get traumatised when he was cut in half :P

Maybe cuz Jango's death was to the neck. The image of neck slicing always give me the chills. :/
