Is Fett evil? (Page 1 of 15)

Well, imagine Anakin in episode I. A young naive boy, only trying to help out others, turning into the gruesome Darth Vader. Fett was young. He had learned little of the bounty hunter's ways. Only after his father had died did he begin to read the black book, and go on hunts. I'd imagine, the more hunts he did, the more cold and keniving he became.

And nothing in episode II has anything to do with Imperials and Rebels. For all he knew, the Jedi that killed his father were hired by the Empire, for the Republic later became the Empire. Revenge is definately not his style.

The Rebels didn't like the bounty hunters and criminals of the galaxy. They were entirely against it. The Empire wasn't to fond of it either... "We don't need their scum." But yes, I do agree Fett would have worked for the Rebels had they payed him enough.

I don't think Fett is evil.  I do think he has some strong elements of the dark hero.
He does take pay from the highest bidder, but he uses his own moral compass to guide his actions. That he falls outside of the norms of average society is to be expected: he's a paid soldier, someone who lives on the fringe, the shadow self, doing the things others are to afraid to do, facing the darker aspects of the self others are afraid to realize.

I agree with Chrys.  I think his motivation is more geared towards Justice.  He had his own moral code that he follows, as well.  As for working for the rebels, I believe it says somewhere that he said he would never work for the Rebels, because they were trying to overthrow the "established lawful government."  I guess he saw it as a kind of treason against the state.

Well, anyone can see someone else as evil. For example, were the Jedi evil? From Anakin's point of veiw they sure were. Good and Evil doesn't depend on what others think, it depends on what is morally right or wrong. Boba Fett is a pretty bad guy, but he is definately not evil. He can still sleep if he didn't kill someone that day.

Well to answer the question, no I don't think Fett is evil. He's no angel but not evil, that's not his motivation, justice however is.

I don't think Fett is evil, it was just his style as a bounty hunter. Tn the New Jedi Order series when he meets up with Han Solo he tells him the bounty hunting was just a job.

I'm not sure, but yea Fett didn't take anything really personal when it came to bounty hunting, I'm not sure if really held any grudges other than against the Jedi, he only was constently after Solo because he had a price on his head, not just because he hated him.

This is something I found that Fett said.
Everyone dies.
It's the final and only lasting justice.
Evil exists;it is intelligence in the service of entropy.
When theside of a mountain slidesdown to kill a village,this is not evil
for evil requires intent.
Should a sentient being cause that landslide,there is evil;
and requires Justice as a consequence.
There is no greater good than Justice;
and only if law serves Justice,is it a good law.
It is said correctly that law exist not for the Just but for the Unjust;
for the Just carry the law in their hearts,
and do not need to call it from afar.
You will bow to no one;
and you will give service only to cause.

Anyway,I think that there is no clear line between good and evil.What some believe to be good,others belive it to be ill.Take the war in Iraq,for example.I think we are doing good there,but others  think that we should have just minded our own beez-wax. Or in a StarWars theme take the Empire:Rebels are either trouble makers or the only hope for justice.Empire= either good or evil.

wat ever happened to Montross after Jango died, did Boba kill him?

JasterBoba BobaJaster they are the same...or are they?
No, they're not.  No wait, yes.  No.  Yes. Definetely...not.  Maybe.
That was a fun topic on the old boards.

But why would Boba want to Concord Dawn to be a Journyman Protector? I'd heard somewhere, I forget where, that Jaster the Mandalorian was exiled and Jango's dad was among the people who were standing up for Jaster in this political debate thing. But I have no idea where I heard that.

No, i dont think so, i think he took Jango's armor but painted it different, like a rank that a Mandalorian would use, but im not sure which one. Jodo Kast supposedly picked up his armor off an old Mandalorian battlefield.
