Boba Fett was one of the most popular characters of the original Star Wars movies. He was a successful bounty hunter who managed to find Han Solo, despite Solos near-perfect escape plan. He seemed to be the perfect badass, and that when it came to combat, he would put up such a good fight that it would be virtually impossible to defeat him. And yet he died in such a stupid way. His death was one of the most anticlimactic moments in the entire film franchise. Boba had considerable screen time for a secondary character, and was built-up as this dangerous individual that the protagonists should've been very afraid of. How was it, then, that the greatest bounty hunter in the Galaxy succumbed to such a lame twist of fate? This entry just screamed lazy writing. Even a two-minute-long fight between Boba and any other major protagonist would've been a more satisfying death than the back luck he experienced in this film.
