Knocked Out or Dead? (Page 1 of 2)

Well, Boba fell into the Sarlacc, and then blew it up and escaped... That's from 'The Bounty Hunter Wars' trilogy books. And you should definately believe them!

Alright, as RC says, he comes back later to kick some *** and take some names. Therefore, he's not dead. It's common knowledge to...pretty much everyone, that he's still alive. IT'S IN THE BOOKS!!! READ THEM!!!! I've never known a Fett fan who didn't know he survived, congratulations, you're the first.

He went in. I like to pretend the girlie scream was not him. So the knocked out thing works for me.  And Miba's right, they do say he wakes up , so my guess is his lights were off for a few critical moments and then he comes to in hell.  Which he promptly (more or less) escapes.

Thanx for the info DOODOO. Very informitable.

I use to be so passionately against Fett's death in Return of the Jedi. I use to hold "Tales of the Bounty Hunters" up like it was the bible. However, I'm older now and more jaded (probably due to the prequels, special editions, the media corporate empire that is Lucasfilm, etc). As it stands right now in my mind I'm not sure, I guess anything is possible. I don't really care one way or another and yes, I am a big fan.

As writing my own stuff I can find beauty in a cool death even of a character I love. While, Fett's death may not have been amazingly cool or you might think he went out olike a "chump," but I find a certain beauty to it. It is as if the skiff battle was a ballet. I kind of appreciate the simplicity of how he got knocked out of the game. Think of it as one in a million chance. Han won the lottery that day.

I suggest that you believe whatever makes you happiest.

A few years ago if you'd have tried to get me to believe Boba Fett was dead, I'd have said, "Well, that's you're opinion." I still say it now, it's just that back then I said it for the wrong reasons. I said it because, quite frankly, I was being a fan girl.

I think I'm mature enough now to where I could be able to accept that he died in the sarlacc. Only thing is I don't. Or rather, I can't. Not because I'm being stubborn... it's hard to explain. I guess I've stuck by him being alive for so long and dreamed up so many possible adventures he might have had afterward, that it just became fact in my mind. (Which, now that I think about it, may or may not be kind of creepy...)

So, in terms of Fett history, I just think of "The Sarlacc Incident" as some painful and embarrassing thing that happened to him on the job once. (Which might be a fraction why he fuels the rumors of his death.)

And yes he was self-aware when he fell in, cuz he screamed. (Like I said, probably not an event he likes talking about.)

I hate that they added the beak. Hate it!!!

We don't have it.  I "borrowed" it from somewhere.

I really like the storyline of him escaping the Sarlaac, (the beak was cool, but didn't exactly go with the lamprey-styled teeth), only to spend a fortune on a cloned right leg and drugs to suppress his chromosone damage.  Aye, that scream as he fell wasn't very manly, but perhaps anyone would have done the same.  Imagine how Luke would have sounded if it had been him feeding the Sarlaac.  He'd have peed.  Yep, Luke's a peer.

Oh, sorry for the Luke bashing, it's my default to slam on "Wormy".  Anyway, it's our job as fanboys (meant in an all-encompassing PC way) to support Fett's escape from the Almighty Sarlaac.  Lucas can tease us with an escape scene.  It's what he does, but talk is cheap.  Instead of regaining our hero, we lose his indentity (voice).  Do I sound bitter?  It's only because I am.  Back to my point, if we don't keep him alive, then no one else will?  It's time for you to ask yourself whether or not you're a real Boba Fett fan, or perhaps just another Vader cultist...

But I likie Lando. 

Lol im only joking.
