Why was he smiling when using his last resort then? Because he was proud of himself...? You tell me. Because he staged it. Or at least that has always been my interpretation.

It's all the same at the moment in this discussion.... Otherwise î wouldn't have used EU characters in the past. And yeah nice excuse it wasn't no plan. Okay then I believe Boba wanted to fall in the Sarlac so people would think he's dead.... Does that sound realistic? All of these characters appeared in the movies or TCW. So there's no need to resort to using these exaggerated EU comics. No Boba is a EU based character. I wouldn't have had him in the duel at all otherwise if it was only movie stuff....

But if you consider the EU canon... do you consider the holiday special canon?

You took the worst possible example as the only thing you could think of?

The problem is, you can't really compare the EU to TCW/Movies. The EU is often exaggerated and popular characters are always overpowered. The movies and TCW are realistic and they show how these characters were supposed to be.

They are exactly the same. I could also have mentioned Palpatine clones... those are almost as bad.

But if you consider the EU canon... do you consider the holiday special canon? The point Newan is making is that Bane is a character totally in the clone wars, with a lot of screen time. Boba, however, makes a very small appearance in the movies, and is grounded in the EU. You seem to be saying thst because Boba didn't do much in the Movies, he's somehow a bad bounty hunter. But if you read books with him in them, you'll definitely know that's not true.

The mini series was made for 6 year old kids that would keep them interested with the little action in the first 2 movies.
And TCW was so biased towards the heroes. They need the bad guys to win sometimes in a fight. Really judging how most of the episodes went the republic should have won in a year if it wasn't for the Jedi holding them back.

I don't think TCW showed even a quarter of the battles that were in the actual war.

Most of the mini series's fans are actually a lot older. TCW was sometimes biased towards the heroes... but in many arcs the bad guys won especially in the later seasons. And remember the Republic was winning the war in ROTS, so obviously they were doing better.

It only takes some force power and a lust for power to become evil.... You can't just say no one will ever become sith again. Especially when they tasked Luke to rebuild the order. And wouldn't balance mean keeping some evil and some good? Like how is it balanced when only one faction is left. Idk doesn't make sense at all.

If Sidious survived all of that would be pointless. And being evil doesn't make you a Sith.

It's not like Revan, Malak, Exar Kun or Dooku where actually sith but just fallen Jedi that took up the dark side and yet everyone still considers them sith.

Revan and Malak were thought by the Sith Emperor and Dooku by Sidious (I don't know anything about Exar Kun).

And does it really make sense that Anakin has to kill Sidious? That's just stupid. It could have been over in ROTS if the Jedi had some brains and you know both went to kill the emperor first then both go slaughter Anakin together. And even if there happended to be no sith left that still doesn't bring balance to the force....

Star Wars literature and some sort of old Star Wars cartoon are not the same. Much of the EU shares this level of overpowered characters though. Not really. Have you read the Fate of the Jedi series? Have you read the Legacy of the force series? In those book, characters aren't over powered. If they were there'd been no appeal for anyone to buy them.
