Author	Topic: The Boba Fett ROTJ-SE Dancer Flirt Scene

	It's a very brief scene in the Special Edition of ROTJ, but somehow for me it totally changes Fett's character. For the worse! I'm not saying I can't see Fett having a relationship with a woman, but the most feared and skilled bounty hunter in the galaxy doesn't flirt! I'm sorry, but he just doesn't!

	I have to agree here. I have no idea what prompted this change. Just another gratuitous alteration to the OT. -----signature----- "I can't abide those Jawas... disgusting creatures"! - C3PO This sig line is [FABULOUSO!] www.outerrimsieges.com "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -- Carl Sagan

	What's wrong with Fett being a lady's man? He's a villainous version of Han and Lando, both of whom were noted ladies' men. This is a change I actually agree with. -----signature----- "Chance makes playthings of us all." -- Seneca Shameless non-Manager Emeritus sock of Vortigern99.

	I dunno... I always saw Fett as cold and unapproachable. Now he's showing a softer side to himself. It's no big deal, but a little out of character in my mind. I guess everybody views Fett differently. -----signature----- "I can't abide those Jawas... disgusting creatures"! - C3PO This sig line is [FABULOUSO!] www.outerrimsieges.com "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -- Carl Sagan

	oh yeah, non-chalantly poking a paid (or enslaved?) dancer in the chin is so softy-like. It's not like we got the Mandalorian version of AotC in those 3 seconds. He's not desperately falling in love, he's not even flirting, he's only being flirtatious for a moment. -----signature----- We do what we must Because we can For the good of all of us Except the ones who are dead

	Maybe she gave him some crucial information on a bounty he was researching and that was his way of thanking her. -----signature----- Will do moose stuff for money. Everything tastes better wrapped in bacon, especially bacon 11/20/2008: The day I married the most wonderful woman in the world.

	I don't mind the scene. I didn't really see the gesture as romantic or soft, but more in the manner of a gunslinger taking a moment to acknowledge one of his favorite, er, ladies of negotiable virtue. Assuming, of course, that dancing girls employed by gangsters are the closest thing the PG-rated Star Wars universe has to, ah, you know. Maybe I've just watched Deadwood too many times, though.

Fett came across as a cold, ruthless bounty hunter, in my opinion. Nothing to get your undies in a bundle over. It's just slightly out of character, in MY mind. -----signature----- "I can't abide those Jawas... disgusting creatures"! - C3PO This sig line is [FABULOUSO!] www.outerrimsieges.com "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -- Carl Sagan

	I don't see this as him showing his softer side. Knowing what we know of Boba Fett, I've always looked at it as him trying to sleep with the girl. -----signature----- Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Wars:_Episode_I_-_The_Chosen_One Production blog: http://alternativesaga.wordpress.com/

	The only thing I know of Boba Fett is what we see in TESB and ROTJ. I never read any of the EU books about him. I guess he must have a different side from what I know. -----signature----- "I can't abide those Jawas... disgusting creatures"! - C3PO This sig line is [FABULOUSO!] www.outerrimsieges.com "It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -- Carl Sagan

	Nothing here suggests emotion, just as nothing else in the film neccessarily suggest that he's a "ruthless killer" - because we see neither. You can interpret anything onto that T-visor, but that's all it is. It could just as be Theelin for a very rude way of saying "get the heck outta my way" -----signature----- We do what we must Because we can For the good of all of us Except the ones who are dead
