Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

Back in the day when ESB was FIRST released...'79.  Fett caught my eye and I knew there was just something about him.. something I identified with.  At 8yrs old, I wasnt able to put my finger on it but I just knew I liked something about him.. then as the years went by and I started finding my own place in this strange world we live in.. and after many viewings of the GREATEST SCI FI MOVIE OF ALL TIME.. I realized the reason I liked Boba Fett SOOOO much.  He was self reliant, a loner, a renegade, a mystery.  He was his own man.. He made himself who he was,  Now mind you , this was LOONG before the whole CLONE storyline.  Boba Fett was one of a kind.  Not a Rebel, nor an Imperial. He made his own way in the universe being loyal to only himself.  He went where the money took him.  He never played favorites and never made his marks personal.  He was always STRICTLY business when it came to his job.  I realized over my 35yrs that I have acquired many of these traits in my own life.  Boba Fett is more than just a character in a movie to me.. He IS me...

I didn't read the story cause of the color. My poor eyes... I could struggle through it if I wanted but I didn't feel like it.

If you are using color so more people will read your post, the color will likely keep people from reading it.

I happen to give a "&@#$!!". Weird colors like that give me a headache.

Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

Yanno, I don't really care about post colors. As long as it isn't gray letters on a gray background.
On second thought, that green is rather retina-scalding.
Anyway... back to the point.
I've probably been watching Star Wars for all my life, but I guess the Fettish started maybe 2 years ago. There was something about that visor... and he had such a small part.. then I saw Attack of the Clones and learned a bit more about both Fetts. I just really can't explain it. Heck, I can't explain a lot of the stuff I like. I train mules. Try explaining that.
Anyway...
Now the whole Ailyn Vel premise is what intrigues me. I thought about writing some fanfic about Ailyn and Boba, but there seems to be a lot of Ailyn haters here.

Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

when the empire strikes back came out.i just loved fett on sight.my fave character was always darth vader,but somebody who can outthink han solo and lookes like an ancient greek hopolite( i was at high school at the time and was loving homers Illiad and Xenophons the persian expedition)made an immeadiate fan with me.

SF is what life is all about.

Wow.... I'm speechless. Thanks for the greeting.
Yeah... I'm cranking out about two papers a week in college so don't worry about any Ailyn Vel fanfic from me. You won't have any reason to gouge your eyes out in the near future. I'm trying to figure out how to host/upload fanfic. Could I link it to my Xanga blog or what?

Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

Hmm...I don't know, sadly...I just store all my stuff on a forumfire page, and link to it.  But you could just cut and paste into a new thread in the Creative section. 

Naw, I wouldn't gouge my eyes out...fanfic isn't canon, and as long as it doesn't try to be, nobody will be offended by it.  tongue  As long as it's good writing...

Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

Oh yeah it's good writing- I've been published in a magazine before.
I just gotta find time to write when someone isn't hovering over my shoulder. I HATE that.

Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

:-D We'll be looking forward to that, then...  smile
Heh...other than in the RPGs, I haven't done any creative writing in ages...back to the topic, though. 

I think I already answered this, but I don't really care that much for Fett...he's just the best SW character, arguably.  I just like this forum.  tongue

I could not have said it better myself. It all started the first time I saw ESB.....and morphed into an obsession....

Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

Mine started about six years ago. It all really started from reading fanfiction *blush* I read some stories, got intrigued, and it all went on from there. Now I'm borderline obsessed with anything that involves the Fetts and/ or other Mandalorians.

Re: When Did Your Fettish Start?

I dislike the current Mandalorians to a large extent. They seam to touchy-feely. In the Mandalorian Armor, they are described as ruthless, heartless, and emotionless. That is the way that they should be. The Mandalorians of old (such as Mandalore the Indomitable, my avatar), I like. No offense to you at all, my thoughts on Boba and Jango are completely oppisite of your signiture.
