Jango Fett, or Boba Fett?(possible spoiler)

[Mordraken]

Speaking from a movie-perspective only (not from the expanded universe of books & comics):

I always thought that Boba Fett was Jango's son (and not a clone, despite his residence on Genosis). Also, I beleive Jango Fett was a Mandalorian (descended from that "race" and he was the basis of the clone troops. That would make both Boba and Jango Mandalorians. However, Boba Fett was not slain by a Jedi (he was knocked into the Sarlacc pit by Han Solo).

So from the movies, I would say that it was either Jango Fett (the last to be killed by a Jedi) or what gonin said (as he seems to have much more info than I do ).

yeah well suprise suprise..cuz i read something about boba did'nt die in sarlacc, migt be false but ill try to find out more about this when i have time...

EDIT: found something about boba escaping the sarlacc.(quote from wookie/wiki)
But the Sarlacc could never hold Fett. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, the Sarlacc, finding Fett somehow indigestible, regurgitated him out, throwing him onto the sand. It was there that he was found by a group of Jawas who took him to be either a droid or cyborg (they never bothered to scan him, of course) and, doubting he was intelligent, claimed him as their own. They took him into their sandcrawler, fit a restraining bolt on him, and went on their way. He would soon be joined by an old face when the Jawas stole R2-D2 from a hangar bay in Mos Eisley.


Fett waking up after his first escape from the Sarlacc.R2-D2 immediately recognized Fett, but the meeting was interrupted as Han Solo and Leia Organa attacked the sandcrawler in an attempt to get R2 back. It was at this point that Fett awoke for the first time since being freed from the Sarlacc, just in time to see Solo enter the sandcrawler in his attempt to rescue R2. Unfortunately, the sandcrawler had been damaged during Han's attempts to enter it and so was on a collision course with the Sarlacc, the Jawas being too busy to fix it as they had just been attacked by Tusken Raiders. Solo was as surprised as R2 had been to find Fett alive once more, but somehow Fett had temporarily lost his memory and in fact helped Solo rescue R2 from the doomed sandcrawler. Though against his better judgment, Solo then tried to help Fett escape also, as he couldn't leave a helpless man to die.

Unfortunately for Fett, it was at this point that his memory came back due to Leia shouting Han's name repeatedly. Fett fired on the unarmed Solo before he managed to free him from the Sandcrawler, causing Solo to jump onto the sand. The Sandcrawler, with Fett still in it, crashed into the mouth of the Sarlacc, trapping Fett once more. Solo once more thought of Fett as dead, though it was not the last time he would escape the Sarlacc
Although accounted for dead, Fett survived the clutches of the foul beast—but not without a lot of physical injuries

As I've always understood it, Jango and Boba Fett weren't actually mandalorians, they just wore the armor. Been awhile since I've picked up any of the books though.

They were supposed to be Mandalorians. If you go back to kotor I, the description of Cassus Fett's armor said that he was a Mandalorian Bounty Hunter.

jango was adopted by a mandalorian warrior Jaster Mereel,so jango was a mandalorian.and got some training from them. he even when to the mandalorian civil war, and shortly after the war he became a bounty hunter.

and boba well was a clone with no mandalorian training, just a bounty hunter...so he just used the mandalorian armor, but was'nt a mandalorian.

Well if Jango was who Kreia spoke of then he was a mandalorian in the same way that the sith were sith.
If Boba was (and I doubt it) then that is a lie because Boba was a clone and if the first three episodes (the new movies) are true every imperial soldier is a clone (just like Boba) and therefore mandalorians. Who is to say that Cesus was anymore of a mandalorian then Jango or Boba? He may have just gotten mandalorian armour. I mean I wandered around in KOTOR I and II with mandalorian armour, how hard would it have been for a bounty hunter (or whatever he was) to get some?

Also, Wiki-, or Wookie-, -pedia Is NOT Always Fact. Stop using it as so. It is extrapolation and heresay at best, meaning that just because someone says it and someone else repeats it doesn't make it true, just more widespreadly false.

well i think that jango is related to cassus. just that i think that jango mother and father was'nt trained to be mandalorians, jaster mereel took him in,to train him.

beside its most likely jango how was the last ''true''mandalorian, sind he was trained as one and that he is somehow conected with cassus and not a clone like boba...

I hope you all realize that this is pretty much relative and a game of imagination, because EU is something that grows and changes every day, and contradicts itself a lot of times.
There is much room for new stories in SW world. And if you really felt like it you could imagine in your head some "last true" mandalorian that died 2000 years before Yavin, unless someone beats you to it and makes another novel or a game. Or you could imagine something different.

I assume it is quite possible that the person who wrote the text for kotor2 had some EU material (or movies) in his mind, but then again, he had the freedom to imagine some other new history which is not mentioned elsewhere.
The only way to know is to ask him.

As for trying to solve it through some logic of facts about Jango and Boba, well, these characters were enriched through imagination of many authors, and your imagination would be just as valid as theirs because in the end they are all just fans like us, exept that they get to sell their dreams about SW world, and we don't.

I wouldn't try to find logic in EU, because some stuff in EU is not even compatible with films, and it's perfectly fine, because you can chose whatever part of EU you like, and ignore the rest.
It's all a game and imagination after all.
There is nothing "official" about it, it's all fantasy anyway

But in the end

Jango turned into what Jaster thought was the lowest of mandalorians...A burned out bounty hunter.

But out of Jango and Boba its would be Jabgo because:

Boba did receive some formal training with the clone troopers who were givin a strict mandalorian training regeim but most of all boba wasn't killed by a jedi.

In Return of the Jedi (star wars 6) he is eaten by the Sarlac (that big hole in the ground in the dune sea) but escapes and is saved by jawa's.

ahh my point...the lowest of the lower he might be. But he is still a mandalorian.
