For once we will end the debate once and for all. [image=http://www.bestanimations.com/Sci-Fi/StarWars/Emporer-01.gif] ~Sithman~
YES, YES, YES, and YES! Boba Fett is dead. I don't care what some stupid little book says, Boba Fett died 18 years ago. PERIOD.
Oh, and I voted yes. Definitely. He's dead- no one escapes the "all powerful sarlacc". [image=http://www.bestanimations.com/Sci-Fi/StarWars/Emporer-01.gif] ~Sithman~
They've had books and comics about Boba Fett after he was supposedly eaten, so I say NO. Besides, Boba Fett is one of the coolest characters, but if he died in such a idiotic way, I would be glad to hear that he actually did the impossible and survived the Sarlacc.
The EU isn't STAR WARS... If GL didn't have anything to do with it, then it isn't STAR WARS... For all of you who agree with me, that EU sucks. Try this link, to one of the greatest threads on the JC (perhaps you allready know it): If U hate EU, then press here BOBA is dead and GONE. He's NOT coming out of there.
How will you explain all the errors in the Thrawn-trilogy regarding the "Clone Wars"???? And also in that book where Luke tries to find out who his mother was. What's that all about???????????
The Noghri thing was resolved in the Essential Guide to Alien Species. And Akanah sent Luke on a wild goose chase.
I just don't think that the EU feels right. The "New Jedi Order" doesn't seem to have the deep commitment that Yoda talks about in ESB. And that whole "killing-Chewbacca-thing", that was just a CHEAP, CHEAP way to get some more readers. BOBA's DEAD BUT MADINE AND CHEWBACCA LIVES
Well, everything in the EU happened, unless the movies say otherwise. So Fett is alive, and Madine and Chewbacca are dead.
I don't think that we'll EVER agree on this. The only EU that I barely accept are the names of the different species and how they "function". But I cannot accept SW-stories that aren't written by George himself. Doesn't anyone else feel like I do?????????
The EU is not crap. I don't see how you guys can say that it is. I'll ay this again: Everything in the EU happened unless the movies sya otherwise. This is a fact, so anyone who says that the EU doesn't count is just plain wrong.
But Bib! There are so many contradictions! They've got Mara doing this and that when she in another video game did this. Oh, and about your "All EU is right unless the movies say otherwise" comment, let me ask you a few questions... 1.) Since we didn't SEE Vader die, and the movies don't SAY so, he isn't really, is he? 2.) Since the movies SAY Chewbacca lived, and never died in them, if the books says he's dead, then that's not true! 3.) Since everyone who falls into the Pit of Carkoon dies in ROTJ, then wouldn't that mean that if Fett falls in, he dies too? If the books/comics/video games say he's alive, it'd be a contradiction, right? [image=http://www.bestanimations.com/Sci-Fi/StarWars/Emporer-01.gif] ~Sithman~ P.S. I knew this'd turn into a EU/canon war.
Ummm there are already a ton of contradictions between what Lucas says and the EU. When someone asked Lucas about Boba Fett, he said "Boba Fett is dead. I killed him." I read that on a thread somewhere, unless the person misquoted. And the whole "Bria Han's first love" in HST was against Lucas' vision of the character of Han Solo since Lucas said Han had never fallen for anyone before Leia. And the Death Star plans were stolen by like 10 different people. And Lucas showed the Empire topping at the end of ROTJ and the EU had the Empire go on and on and on for years. Yeah I know the EU "fixed" that by saying it was a protest that the stormtroopers silence but I highly doubt that was Lucas' intention when making those scenes.
Heh, I agree, sweetheart. Yah, it's stupid how the Empire survives about 15 or 20 years after ROTJ. Know what's ever stupider? Palpy's 3 (or is it 4 now?) clones. Lucas created such a good character that the book writers couldn't think of a newer and better character on their own. [image=http://www.bestanimations.com/Sci-Fi/StarWars/Emporer-01.gif] ~Sithman~
First of all, according to my sources boba Fett escaped from the Great Pit of Carkoon sometime during the intervening six years to show up on Nar Shadda, once again on Han Solo's trail. He claimed that the Sarlacc found him to be "somewhat indigestible." I voted no. The movies never tell if he didn't die, on the other hand they never said he did. This council should show concern of the books, for that is what we are based on, old scriptures and yes even books.
