Re: Is Fett evil?

ya, but then again... not everyone that Boba is sent after could be considered "evil". But that goes back to our discussion on how you define evil since it is a matter of perspective.

Re: Is Fett evil?

In my mind Fett is definatly not evil because in the tale no disentigrations from tales of the new republic, Boba fights his way through an imerial garrison then when he finds out the bounty he was after helps orphans, he let him go and even donated a large sum of money to his cause. On wiki it says he riscked his life to save childeren from a burning school. So i dont think he is evil.

Re: Is Fett evil?

Do not always trust Wikis. As far as I know, he never risked his life to save children from a burning school.

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Re: Is Fett evil?

i agree with Draco, dont always tust wikis. And also, Fett obviously has a soft spot for orphans since he was one and he snaps when people use their children as a bribe, this does not make him "non-evil."

Lets say he gets paid to take out a transport ship. Kills everyone on board without a second thought. He travels along and sees a ravaged ship drifting through space. He stops, helps out the people on board, and flys off.

Does the good deed cancel out the bad one? In my mind, no. Maybe you think differently, its just my opinion.

I think of it like The Piture of Dorian Gray. When Dorian does something cruel, his portrait gets uglier. I would assume that when he does somthing kind, it slightly goes back to normal.

Re: Is Fett evil?

In my sincere opinion, Boba Fett was not "Evil". I don't think he purposely seeks out to do wrong, and finds pleasure in such a child-like game, he does it for the credits. Bounty Hunting is as much a job need doing as another sentient being going to work as senator, bank teller, etc. THe job may fall under the shadow of operating in somewhat an "Evil" way, but that, in essence, does not make the one who does it evil. Fett is a professional, he does his job, and he does it well. Evil is a state of side, such as Good vs. Evil. Fett doesn't pic sides, he is completely neutral.

He isn't evil...he just has a harsh sense of justice.

Re: Is Fett evil?

Of course boba is not evil. It's like saying Stewie Griffin is evil. There really is not real evil (except for Jack THompson) boba has a job to do and he see it to the end. The American dream. That's boba fett.

I would change the world, if only i had the source code.  :cool:

Re: Is Fett evil?

I don't know if this has been said before, but Boba is not evil, he's just ' a bounty hunting man trying to make his way in the galaxy' but got tangled up in the empire

Re: Is Fett evil?

Boba is far from inoccent.

Re: Is Fett evil?

I Know That Boba Fett Is Nuetral I Mean He Gets Hired By Darth Vader (darth Vader Probaly Payed A Bigger Price To Hire Him Than The Rebels Lol)
But He Could Been Hired By The Rebels If The Rebels Wanted To

IN THE NAME OF GOD IMPURE SOULKS FO THE LIVING DEAD SHALL BE BANISHED INTO INTERNAL DAMNATION, AMEN

Re: Is Fett evil?

Boba would not work for the Rebels, as they are unjust. He stated this in Tales of the Bounty Hunters.

Re: Is Fett evil?

Evil in the eye of the beholder.  To Leia as they Boba was having Han loaded onto the Slave 1, she, more likely than not thought he was quite evil, but when he bailed them out at the end of the Yuuzhan Vong Wars he probably wasn't considered evil anymore.  So all in all I wouldn't call him evil just antagonistic.

Re: Is Fett evil?

he's not evil he's not good he's neutral. That's one of the reasons why I like Boba Fett so much. He can be evil at times and he can be good and also he kills other evil people not just good ones I think that counts as somethig

there are no star systems slave 1 can't reach, and there's no planet I can't find. There's nowhere in the galaxy for you to run. Might as well give up now.    -Boba Fett

Re: Is Fett evil?

No offense to any of your posts, but try reading through the posts before posting, everything in the last 5-6 posts has been said before in this topic. I know this because i wrote one myself.

If you are going to post something in the hopes of starting a conversation, make sure that no one here has said it.

Re: Is Fett evil?

Boba saw his 'father' get beheaded by a Jedi when he was ten.  That would make him jaded, and seemingly cruel.  He's more of a worldly man,( I KNOW this has been said before, hear me out) and his sense of justice is probably a reflection of his mindset.  I don't think he's evil, just harsh, and cold.

Due to maintenance problems, the light at the end of the tunnel will not be in operation today.  Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Re: Is Fett evil?

Well the easiest thing to do is define evil, and then see if Boba Fett actually fits the bill. Personally I don't  think he is evil, but no he's not a nice guy either.

And M. Assassin brings up a good point, he watched his only parent get beheaded as a boy. tends to skew one's perspective of right and wrong in the universe.

Re: Is Fett evil?

I think the Jeremy was talking about the Mythosaur skull on Boba's shoulder. I do not think that he  was saying that Fett is evil.

Re: Is Fett evil?
