Boba Fett or Jango Discussion thread.

When he was referring to killing Dooku, he ment when he had come up behind Dooku and ignited his lightsaber. That was his one chance to kill him. But if he had Jango would have gunned him down. To be fair though, considering the position Jango was in right there, anyone could have possible gunned down Mace then had they been right where Jango was. As for when he is shooting at Mace on the battle field, Jango was sort of just pointing and shooting while Mace easily deflected the blaster bolts while running at him. Then quickly decapitating him. Mace seemed to do it easily.

But the novel says otherwise. In the movie we see Mace deflecting Jangos shots and then beheading him. But we have no idea how much trouble he was having, apart from ones perception of the battle. However the AOTC novel says that Jangos well placed shots caused Mace to swing his saber wildly. This doesnt contradict the movie therefore it is canon.

Now I saw it brought up that Jango was a jedi hunter. Yet i have not seen anything to support this. Jango was a bounty hunter. While one of the best it is obvious that he is not as well know. Remember when he is seen flying away after shooting that one bounty hunter with a kamino saber dart. Has he been real well known, they would have reconized it as him. Not many bounty hunters go around in Mandalorian armor you know. I have little doubt that Jango is almost as good as Boba, but Boba is still a little better. He learned a lot from Jango and had the benifit of more years of experiance.

Fair enough. I havent read any of the EU novels so I cant really form an argument. However Jango was defeated by the second best jedi in the jedi order. Boba was defeated by a blind man, who wasnt trying to kill him and had his back turned to Boba. This would lead me to beleive Jango is more efficient with his kill, and doesnt waste time eg the Kamino dart. However Boba is more of a guns blazing type guy eg "No disentagrations".

http://www.swcomics.com/?f=Jango_Fett , some good comics to show Jango's abilities. Boba has much more experience, and could do all these things and more, I believe. For the most part, Boba's skills are in books, not comics, but if you want some comic sightings for Boba, just ask. I already have a bunch.

Your just asking for a fight there. Me and DE Luke put that behind us and kept on debating. And then you just come along and post an offensive comment for no reason at all. Thats trolling, plain and simple...

So I assume you got the irony?

😠 😠 😠 😛

hmm actually boba got barfed up by the sarlacc... and he went on to own everyone 😄 coz boba rocks his dads ass. his dad is a noob and boba is like uber..

u should read the boba fett novels they own 😛

i say boba

1) he didn't care what he had to do as long as he got his bounty.

2) jango had taught him enough to start out at 13 i think was how old he was when he first started killing.

3)he also killed jedi and went on to fight vader lightsaber to lightsaber

4)he like his father also became the most feared bounty hunter in the galaxy

5)he blew up the sarlacc and managed to get out

6) while dengar and neelah were taking care of him he saved both of them from an earthquake caused by the sarlacc. and he ddn't have any skin since it was all digested

7) he helped cause the destruction of the bounty hunters guild

8)becamne mandalore was foud by the Yuuzhan Vong to be worthy allies

9) helped win the war against the Yuuzhan Vong

10)and he's now coming back at the age of like 78-80 in bloodlines and i'm sure that his name is still going to be feared by all who remember it.

oh and saying boba was defeated by a blind man isn't staeting all the facts. who would you pay attention to a blind guy or a jedi with a lightsaber? i'm going to go out on a limb here and say the jedi.

and yes no one has more luck than han.

There both pretty cool characters, I really do not have a preference.

boba is better though. skill wise and history wise.

No way. Jango killed jedi for a sport. He gave Mace a run for his money with just one blaster and a broken jet pack. Boba got killed by a blind man that wasnt even trying to kill him.

just a couple of things. firstly, jango only killed the jedi who studied a jedi form called niman, the jedi could do most skills with a lightsaber but didn't excel at them (all who studied the form and went to geonosis were killed). the other jedi, like the masterso f ataru and soresu would hae killed him.

the second thing is that mace killed him because he was too experienced and skilled, he studied a form that only three had done, and one turned to the dark side. mace would have killed him even if he had two blasters and a working jet pack, look at obi-wan, a jedi knight who GIVES HIM A RUN FOR HIS MONEY.

boba wasn't concentrating on the blind man, if he was, do you think he would have been killed? i dont think so.

boba, for the resons mentioned, is the best by far!

see although i really like boba and think he's better than jango. I still think that jango is pretty bad ass and would give boba a run for his money or atleast put up a good fight.

depends on how old they are. id like to see if them fight when thier in thier 1st few years as they would be about the same skill.

sorry guys but i dont see mace windu haveing trouble with jango fett, jango had trouble with obi wan and almost died fighting him and obi wan is no mace windu, in the animated series they showed obi wan deflecting laser shots as well as fire, if mace wanted to kill jango he could have just deflected everything jango threw at him and used his force power to blow his head up, he is good but when it comes down to the really strong jedi he should not be able to handle them, same thing with general grevious he gave like five jedi a run for there money even a jedi master but mace windu almost killed him on every single occasion they met and mortally wounded grevious in there last encounter i believe and i dont see most jedi masters destroying entire droid armies which mace has, or destroying entire star ships like yoda. It would be cool if jango and boba kill jedi and they probably do but come on people mace windu and yoda are THEE most powerful jedi in the that universe that i know of up to the creation of the galactic empire, bounty hunters and droids have no buisness defeating THEE most powerful jedi in the galaxy same with the most powerful sith, imagine how dumb it would be if jango killed darth nihlius.
