I couldn't remember who killed boba fett. But c3 and r2 do have a lot os signifigance, they both knew anikin when he was anakin and when he was vader, if they hadent given them a memory wipe, then they could have reveald like secret plans or something that could lead them closer to vader.

Honestly, these movies were terrible. Anakin's switch was waaay to sudden....people don't go from caring individuals to sith lords over a span of a few days because of some bad dream. Anakin is too much of a whimp to be Darth Vader. Vader was cool, collected, and always in control. Anakin was rash and stupid. I refuse to believe that they are the same person.

Luke, "Obi wan told me you killed my father."
Vader, "I killed your father, yes."
He doens't look at himself as the same person. He even says it him self. And anakin was going to the dark side in episode 2, he killed all the sand people in that tribe for no reason really. And its alll in the way of the force things lead to another and your dark side:
Love leads to anticipation
anticipation leads to frustration
frustration leads to confusion
both of those combined lead to anger
anger leads to hate, you know the rest right? I've alwaysed looked at it that way. Kearn the sith code and jedi code, then compare them.

[QUOTE=HighLordDave]gives Solo to Boba Fett (the most over-rated character in the Star Wars universe) [/QUOTE]
Good point. Boba is really over rated.
Boba fett doesn't do much in epi:4-6, in fact he has a bigger role in epi. 2 and he says more.
If you compare what jango fett does with boba jango is a much better character.
Also, Boba is a clone, there is nothing speacil about him, he's just the same as all the clone troppers (epi.2-3) and the storm troopers (epi. 4-6)

I guess I'm enough of a geek to argue about this.

Actually, Boba Fett is quite different from the other clones. The clone army was genetically engineered and conditioned to be obedient and conformist. This makes them significantly different from Jango, and in fact they are not identical to him at all. Boba, on the other hand, at Jango's request, was not genetically modified or conditioned in any way, and he was raised by Jango, so Boba truly is "identical" to Jango, unlike the other clones. At least, that's what I remember from "Episode 2".
Frankly, I never could understand the appeal that Boba Fett had to so many people when the first three movies came out. I've never read any of the various
Star Wars novels, but if I'm not mistaken, Boba Fett plays a significant role in many of them. Either that created more interest in him, or it fed the appetite to hear more about him. Either way, when Jango appeared in the "Episode 2", there was more chance to develop his character than there was for Boba in the first three movies. So it's no wonder that Jango seemed more interesting in the movies than Boba. If you're going to make millions of copies of someone, you ought to choose someone special.

Spoze your right, but all the strom troopers, clone troopers, Jango fett and Boba fett are identicle in every way, accept personallity and the fighting style (which is only a tiny bit different) that really annoys me

Boba Fett's cult following is due to the following things:
1. He has, hands down, the coolest outfit of anyone in the original trilogy.
2. Although he says next to nothing (Arnold Schwarzenegger has more lines in the first Terminator movie than Boba Fett does), the fact that Darth Vader has to tell him "No disentigrations" instantly ups his cool-factor.
Truly he deserved a better ending than what he got.
Due to fan demand, he was rescued from the belly of the sarlaac, but his on screen death was nothing short of craptastic (which I am now proclaiming as "The High Lord's Word of the Week"™, having used it twice in this thread alone).
Boba Fett is genetically identical to Jango, unlike the clone army which was not only engineered to be extra obedient, but also underwent extensive training and indoctrination. Boba was Jango's do with as he pleased.
