TV-Commentary - Star Wars
Was Boba Fett paid by the word?
You ever notice how Boba Fett never said much? I thought at first this was just because he was the silent type, but then I got to thinking that maybe he got paid by the word. I mean, thinking about it--he's a bounty hunter, there's no reason for him to just be hanging around Jabba's palace; maybe Jabba paid him to stay on as an decoration, a topic of conversation to amuse people. If he was being paid as an entertainer, he might be paid by the word, right?

"No distintegrations"--Vader
"As you wish"--Boba, billing the Empire for 1,000 credits.

he hung around jabba's palace because jabba probably paid him to be on calll if a job came up suddenly. also, he only said what needed to be said.

GET SOME FACTS!! 1 Boba fett dosen't talk much cause there is no need to 2 Boba fett wasn't billing the empire for 1000 credits he's no cheap bastard. He was billing them for 16000 credits. 3 FYI boba lives through the RJO{ return of the jedi} read the books slave ship, mandalorian armor, and the last book of the series i forget. Yea.

He's a strict businessman and has no time to listen to mindles fools gibbering on and on. He's probably constantly on the trail of a bounty or two so he has no time to stop for a chat. ITHORIANS ROCK!

Fett only says what is needed. Nothing more. He does not see the point in unnecessary chatter.

For the DVD edition of Star Wars, Lucas had Temuera Morrison overdub all four of Fett's brief lines in "Empire", just to make it consistent with the first three editions. This revisionism is driving me nuts. By the time he's finished tinkering, "Star Wars" will not have a single original scene left.

Tiranus, I challange you to a lightsaber duel! You will lose! You underestimate the power of the dark side!
