Jango Fett: Good or evil?

in aotc, you see fett with dooku but is he actually evil? isn't he just working for the side that paid him? couldn't he also he hired by the jedi for a job? so therefore he has no side and is considered neutral?

 

He's just a man trying to make his way in the universe! Seriously though, I dont' blame him for being a bounty hunter or being a template for an army, but when he started assassinating for cash, he became evil.

 

He's a bounty hunter, he works for whoever pays him.

 

Yes, whoever pays him the most. I doubt Sidious would let him down there, being the chancellor of coruscant and whatnot.

 

He is not good. Yet, he isn't evil either. Bounty Hunters can work on either side of the law.

 

This is even a question? He's willing to be a part of assassinations, kidnapping and conspiracy, and he doesn't care as long as the check clears. The guys cold blooded.

 

In the words of Rick James......

" You're as cold as Ice!!! "


Jango Fett was Evil.

 

Bad to the bone baby

 

In a way, you're right. But in more ways you're wrong. Jango would do the same thing if he was working for the Republic. He's a bounty hunter, it's what they do. Kidnapping, assanation, conspiracy's, hunter's have to deal with situations like this a lot. Now the statement you had that is right, is that he just wants the check. But again, it's what bounty hunters do. So, Jango isn't good but he isn't bad. Look at it this way, if he were a Jedi, he wouldn't be Jedi or Sith but a Grey Jedi.

 

Bounty hunter is an evil profession.
Grey Jedi? I think not. If it's inbetween Jedi and Sith, you can't really call it something with "Jedi" in it.



Jango is a bad man
/LM

 

He's a bounty hunter whoever pays him the most.

 

In a way, you're right. But in more ways you're wrong. Jango would do the same thing if he was working for the Republic.

Your judging evil along the lines of someone in a black cloak who takes pleasure from torturing small children and kittens (speaking metaphorically). That's not evil, that's insanity. Evil is soeone who does what they want to further their own purposes and does not care who they hurt in the process (in fact, are willing to hurt whoever in the process). This fits Jango. He wanted money and he wanted a clone. The former of these, which serves most of his motivation during AOTC, is not a noble purpose. The end results of this goal was assassination and conspiracy.

 

You do not understand then. Hunters work for who pay most, this is evidnt. Now, consider this, the Republic will do almost anything to further their own goals. Except they still defend the weak. If Jango were payed to do so, he would do the same thing. But the problem is, the Seperatist's got to him first. In Knights of the Old Republic (I know, it doesnt count, but it's still in the Star Wars universe), bounty hunters did what they were payed to do. Either they came to kill you, or others, or they joined you and protected others (all because of who payed them). Now, understand, I could really care less about Jango's motives. For the money, yes. For a clone? That was an extra bonus. It's a noble purpose to want someone to carry on the Fett name. Although he atacked Jedi, from his point of veiw the Jedi could be evil. Also you know he was being controled by a Sih Lord, so Jango could have been manipulated. Oh well, im defending a charecter I dont even like that much.

 

Someone who kills for money is thinking only of himself and not of others this is evil. Yes he may be just "a man trying to make his way in the universe" but still. If he had sat down and actually thought about what he was doing and about the innocent people he actually was killing instead of guilty and gone for the guilty and not the innocent then maybe I would have had some sympathy for him when Mace Windu sliced his head of but since he showed no mercy and only cared about himself. He got what he deserved and he was pure evil and very selfish.


My dad's a pastor so that's where some of this is coming from.

 

he's Neutral. it all depends on who Pays him enough.

 

Yes and no. Yes becasue he is a Bountry Hunter who works for who ever pays him well. It was the bad guys so that makes him bad. No becasue if it was the good guys that paid him then he would be a good guy. So really in my mind he was both. Kind of like Boba Fett in some ways though Boba I would think is a bit more evil then Jango.

 

Maybe he's Gevil?

 

You do not understand then. Hunters work for who pay most, this is evidnt.

How does money purge him of wrongdoing?

 

It really dosen't but if you think about it. He really just does what he wants no matter if they are good or evil. So he's both well at the same time not being both. Really I just like him being one bad Bountry Hunter who gets his in the end.

 

You're right, it doesn't make sense. Jango is evil, he's a bad guy willing to killed for money and he seems to enjoy it quite a bit. Not only that, he's training his clone son to be evil too. If we can't even call Jango Fett evil, we'll then we are truly lost.

And anidanami124, I have no idea what you're talking about!

It really dosen't but if you think about it.

What the heck does this mean?

 

I don't think he cares enough to be either good or evil. The only thing Jango truly cares about is his son.

 

Yes. He sided with the Seperatists, who, at the time, were the villians. Sure, Dooku was really working for Sidious, but Jango didn't know that.

Plus Jango conspired with Zam to try and kill Sorbe, or whatever her name was, and killed Jedi on Genosis.

 

Dog the bounty hunter is EVIL. But Jango isn't.

 

Um........killing people is WRONG?!?

 

good. bad. he's the guy with the guns.
