Do you think you could explain what makes him such a great Bounty Hunter? ( I agree, but I'd like to see your reasons as well.)

Fair enough.

On the contrary, what makes Jango worse, in your opinion?

That's the ONLY reason he isn't as good as Boba?

Wasted his rocket on Obi Wan? 1. he almost hit him secondly in real life Obi Wan would've been dead but since he has to survive to ANH then no matter what he had to survive the prequel trilogy....

Anyway how can anyone pick Jango over Boba 1. Boba is a pop culture icon bringing back memories to people of the late 70's, early 80's, and after. 2. There's already been a Fett, the concept of a Mandalorian bounty hunter is nothing new. 3. Temuerra Morrisons voice. I don't mind his voice but what I do mind is that it replaced classic Fett. Did Fett have a New Zealand accent when we first saw ESB? HELL NO. They should've had Wingreen's voice. But to any extent, Lucas became careless after the profits came in, so whatever. Hey maybe one day I'll make a better story. It'll be called Salsa and Cheese: the story of a pizza who killed so many, and loved even more. Rofl.....forgive my occasional spasms of bs.

No need to apologize being completely random is one of my favourite past times.  And you have to give Jango credit, you almost hit a Jedi with a back mounted rocket.  That requires a lot of skill.

Jango had more formal mandalorian training, as opposed to Boba, who only trained unbder one soldier, with one soldier's technique.  That's one of the glaring differences, to me.

Jango thrives more in all out combat, as demonstrated in Star Wars Bounty Hunter. Also, he's a little stronger than Boba since he relies more on his muscle than Boba does. I don't know who has better aim but Jango's is excellent; not only does he use a pistol, but he uses 2 at the same time with excellent aim. Lastly, Jango is, in general, a teeny bit more human than Boba. I think that's pretty much it, I doubt I missed anything.

Jango dosent thrive more in combat hes good but you cant say Boba dosent use muscle defeating an entire imperial garrison is not an easy feat.

Boba's way better than Jango Fett. He survives right through his whole life.

I said all-out combat, not combat, are you deaf?

Only if you count EU, which isn't pure canon.

I'm more of a black and white guy.  So I consider EU canon.  Does anybody know if Lucas has acknowledged Boba's survival?

I was being sarcastic about the deaf thing, the point is you skipped an important detail. 2ndly, I didn't say Boba sucked at all-out combat, I said that Jango thrives more in all-out combat, which, in case you don't see it, merely means he's a little better at all-out combat, not that Boba isn't talented at it as well. Such a near-sighted mentality...

April 20, 2007 4:18 am #

I think in general it would be hard to judge them in all out combat because we have never seen Boba fighting alot of people only heard of it in books. Since we have seen jango fighting well in all out combat i guess your right.

In "Enemy of the Empire," a panel showed a room full of storm troopers that Boba killed.

So the silver-armored sissy excels because in all-out combat, not everyone is trying to kill you. He "thrives" because he can easily kill a man whose attention is elsewhere, unaware of the man with the skeletal handguns going for a cheap shot....such as hiring a woman to kill a politician with a pair of slugs. Now his son....Boba has slaughtered an entire garrison of Imperial soldiers, all on his lonesome. Every white-armored stormie, every gun emplacement, every terrified mind locked on Boba Fett without exception. That, is skill. When you are very literally put up against an astounding multitude, and they have nothing to distract their attention away from you.

Jango does not simply excel in one area, and perform poorly in another. Boba excels in general, has met defeat only when faced with a Force-trained enemy, as Jango did. The father is out-done in every way by the son. Game over.

Very nicely stated.  Nice touch with the silver armored sissy.  I now again deem Jango a coward.

boba is definetly my favorite bounty hunter

oh!why'd ya slice of mah hand?!
May 2, 2007 1:45 pm #

It has to be Boba Fett.

Jango was a funky bounty hunter but I just think that Boba has the edge over him.

I think that Boba has the edge because he survived longer than Jango and has then as a result picked up much more experience than Jango.

Perhaps outdone in every way relating to combat ( just about everything anyway) but in personality I think Jango is a teeny bit more merciful.
