Most importantly, take out orders of protection preventing Karen Traviss from going near the script, the sets, the actors, etc.
And this is why you don't watch anything produced by Ronald D. Moore after he had his brain surgically removed and replaced with a bag of elephant semen.-Gramzamber, on why Caprica sucks

Yes. I only read one of her Imperial Commando books, 501st, and it bored me to death. I could barely remember who was who. This was before I heard of her Mando-wanking.

Hmmm... actually, if given the direction we are going... I could see this as a movie.The Romulan Republic wrote:Hmm, maybe set it several years later, then.
And he should definitely disintegrate the Jedi when he finds him, good idea there Havok.
I also agree, make it clear Boba's scum. The films and some of the EU established a cold, ruthless contract killer.
I can picture the scenes.

She has pretty much been ostracized from the Star Wars franchise if memory serves. She also burnt her bridges and showed he True Colors as she did so.Darksider wrote:Most importantly, take out orders of protection preventing Karen Traviss from going near the script, the sets, the actors, etc.
Man, I love puns.

Re: Bobs Fett movie?
I actually enjoyed the Republic Commando series (near as I could tell, the overarching theme was that clones != droids, do have thoughts of their own, and do defect), but I can see I'm in the minority here.
I think they should make a movie out of Boba Fett's entry in Tales of the Empire, where he takes on an entire Imperial garrison to kill the CO's brother, including carjacking an AT-AT.
Any Fett film is going to be a geekfest for certain since the man is a veritable walking armory. As per SWVD, he even has mini-rocket launchers in his kneepads for Pete's sake!

Borgholio: The GOP would blame Obama and use the subsequent nuclear winter to debunk global warming.

Maybe some kind of week propellant or other form of launch to clear the legs before the actual rockets primary propulsion activates?Panzersharkcat wrote:How does he not break his knees?StarSword wrote:As per SWVD, he even has mini-rocket launchers in his kneepads for Pete's sake!

Re: Bobs Fett movie?
The rocket launcher on his knee pads have always been there. Check out your 1970's toys.
And who gives a fuck about the practicality of it.
