He was hired to assassinate a senator me and your father were guarding. We kept bringing her around open windows and public areas in order to draw the would-be assassin out because we knew he had too much pride to just shoot her from long range. He had used his payment to hire another bounty hunter to kill the senator for him while he sent us on a wild bantha chase. Also the 2nd assassin used her payment to buy a robot to assassinate the senator for her. Did I mention the 2nd assassin was a shapeshifter? She could have been a good friend in disguise and just shot the senator for all we knew! Then the robot used its payment to buy poisonous bugs to release into the senators room while she slept after lasering a hole through the window. It could have just lasered her too after that because we we weren't watching her at all but it already bought the bugs. So we sense the hostile life forms not the robot in the room and rush in and save the senator in the nick of time! Then I jumped out the window to chase the robot back to its owner! Luckily it didn't have a self destruct function. Then we found the 2nd assassin and chased her across the planet and caught her when she tried to kill us instead of shapeshifting and escaping. But to our surprise Jango Fett was watching the whole thing instead of going to kill the senator while we were away chasing the bugs chasing the robot chasing the shapeshifter. He shot her with a poisonous dart instead of sniper blaster and only her instead of shooting all of us or blowing all of us with a rocket or something then he escaped with his tiny jetpack. Luckily for the senator my good friend Dexterr Jettster owned a 50s dinner on Courscant that had Republic secrets on the menu along with cheeseburgers and malt shakes. We found the assassin and Mace Window killed him later right in front of Boba. And he was a good friend. Yeah there's a lot of potential bad movie logic here but it all assumed Jango wasn't also in on the plot --- You're such a boring characterless entity. Try getting laid once in a while and maybe you'll have friends and find out what a "joke" is. - derrate <cite>stoltenberg11 posted [p:931719405] in Watched At...

Yeah there's a lot of potential bad movie logic here but it all assumed Jango wasn't also in on the plot From watching the movie, I don't really think he was in on it. He really seemed like he was trying to kill Obi-Wan. I find it more likely that he was told not to kill any Jedi and to kill the check with the poison dart if she failed or something. The dart is quieter than a sniper bolt, too. In general, using Padme as bait was a bad idea though. Anakin and Padme didn't have many good ideas that movie tbh. --- <insert sig here> <cite>Jabodie posted [p:931719722] in Watched At...

HylianFox 12/17/19 5:12:59 PM #55:	that whole scene was a fucking mess RLM does a good job deconstructing why the assassination attempt was just moronic "She's a shape-shifter, but doesn't use that ability at all to be a better assassin" "Jango shoots her, but not the two Jedi" "Jango also uses a highly specialized poison dart that's easy to trace, by some greasy bartender no less" etc etc etc, it's just so much stupidity --- I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals FUH-LAMING! - Homer Simpson Don't be a turd. - Chris Pratt <cite>HylianFox posted [p:931721122] in Watched At...

Jabodie 12/17/19 5:19:17 PM #56:	HylianFox posted... "Jango also uses a highly specialized poison dart that's easy to trace, by some greasy bartender no less" To be fair, Obi-Wan couldn't identify it using all the resources he had with the Jedi or Republic archives. That greasy bartender was probably something else before he settled, and Obi-Wan sought him out specifically. Now if you feel they should have added more qualifications to his expertise aside from "I was prospecting outside the outer rim," that's fair. But the qualifications are implied. Edit: It is also probably that he used it before and it had never been traced to Kamino since its existence was erased from official records. HylianFox posted... "She's a shape-shifter, but doesn't use that ability at all to be a better assassin" As a kid, I actually thought that the weird fish thing she was turned into was due to the poison. You'd think she would like change faces or something in the bar when they're looking for her to make a getaway. HylianFox posted... "Jango shoots her, but not the two Jedi" I would guess that he didn't want all the notoriety, or was forbade by Dooku to do so. The real question imo is why they didn't try to chase him. It didn't seem like he was that far and they had done a bunch of crazy shit to get to his underling, so why just be like "aw dang, looks like he got away, whoops." --- <insert sig here> <cite>Jabodie posted [p:931721384] in Watched At...

You'd think she would like change faces or something in the bar when they're looking for her to make a getaway. She does change briefly during the chase scene, in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, but never changes into anything other than her Humanoid form when you'd think that would be a good idea So it's understandable not to get that she can shape-shift since she doesn't really put it to any good use --- I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals FUH-LAMING! - Homer Simpson Don't be a turd. - Chris Pratt <cite>HylianFox posted [p:931721572] in Watched At...
