Full Series Official "The Clone Wars" Series Discussion Thread (Spoilers Allowed)

Since he says Not mine I take it. Saying that they had some interesting experiences. Other then when they made out.

 

I thought it was pretty much the given that they had a fling together. Kind of like Obi-Wan and Satine.

 

Oh I agree, just how they introduced it was interesting

 

Knowing Aurra and Hondo, I'd imagine she wore the pants as much as he did

 

That would be an interesting novel. I would still buy it.

 

I know she has a few comics out; but I doubt Hondo is in any of them. It's interesting that the TCW production team even contemplated them having a relationship.

 

Hondo had a small cameo in the recent Darth Maul comic and Aurra had a support co-star role. There she was a partner to Cad Bane and some others . I guess whatever fling she had with Hondo came much later - after TPM possibly.

 

How old is Hondo? Do we know?

 

So that comic takes place before the Clone Wars?

 

It took place sometime shortly before TPM.

 

Doesn't make much sense. What would Maul, as Dooku's apprentice, be doing with some bounty hunters?

 

Hondo is immortal.

 

"Maul as Dooku's apprentice"? Not sure what you mean.

Maul hires a group of the then Galaxy's best Bounty Hunters to act as is bodyguards and enforcers since he cannot openly reveal what he is[a Sith Lord]. This is done so not to draw too much attention to himself as a Force user since Sidious and the Jedi have spies everywhere. So he needed a support group, if he was to be what he truly was in the open he would be wholly unbeatable and using his lightsaber and the Force in public(although he does sneak it) . He also cannot alert Jedi who are actively searching for the same Padawan (and they're never too far behind off camera) that Maul wants to challenge and destroy. As that would also bring him in direct conflict with Sidious and his plans, although the idea is tempting to Maul but he ultimately he decides this mission is personal, warrior right of passage kinda stuff and not about overthrowing his master.

 

Obviously I meant Sidious' apprentice.

 

I really wish that we could see the unfinished bounty hunter story arc that was nearly done for TCW. Either animated, or in some other format such as a comic or book. Boba Fett faces off with Cad Bane in an old west style shoot out, killing Bane, and getting the dent in his helmet in the process. It was over a matter of honor.

 

How old was Boba supposed to be in that arc; to get the best of Bane?

 

Around 14-15.

 

Still seems too young to beat someone like Bane. Bane went toe to toe with Jedi. I think he'd be able to handle a young Boba.

 

Well, it's a one on one duel, where the two draw pistols. Both get shot, presumably in the face, and Boba is implied to only have survived due to his helmet.

Edit: They released the animatic of the duel (while leaving the ending ambiguous):


Go to 2:17.

 

Still seems just odd. The last we had seen of Boba in TCW, he was thrown into chest by Ventress in the "Bounty" episode. Wet between the ears lol.

 

That was why it would be the climax of a 4 part arc setting up as a truly independent bounty hunter for the first time, no Bossk, no Aurra to rely on. Just himself, as the leader.

 

I see.

 

In that clip was it to implied that Sugi was killed by Embo and Bossk since that resembles her knife & EE-11 carbine being tossed. Was she playing possum and survived?!

In my opinion Kid Boba should never had been around as much as he was on TCW. Some things are rather cring worthy.

Cad Bane and Aurra Sing were so be to so good as to why Maul hired them- so good in fact at another time they could've been potentially be his prey. Since he hunted as sport the galaxies most dangerous beasts and man alike to constantly test his mettle and skill.

 

Were the rest of the arcs 4 parts?

 

Yes, the Clovis arc was the last 3 part arc produced, and every remaining arc to the end was 4 episodes.
