I am at work, and thinking about Star Wars (as you do), and I started wondering: who is your favorite character that gets less than fifteen minutes of screen time and/or less than 200 pages in the whole EU?

I'll go first: the classic, the fishy. The "IT'S A TRAP!!" guy. Admiral Ackbar.

Jim | 100 comments Technically speaking, Boba Fett gets less than 15 minutes of screen time. He and those above have much greater involvement in the EU.

I'll vote for Boba Fett from the movies.

I guess the level of Fett's involvement in the EU depends on whether you know it's him or not...

Grave | 17 comments I found the brief scenes with Vader and his admirals in episode v to be hilarious. You got the sense that they were all bucking for the promotion until Vader started force choking them to death everytime the rebels escaped. They grew visibly more and more uneasy when given tasks and field promotions and I thought it was such a great dark comic relief.

@Grave: So true! Sometimes I wonder if upper admiralty had a shorter life expectancy than stormtroopers.

Dustin Overschmidt | 11 comments my favorite has to be Sarro Xaj, he may have only lasted a few pages but he stuck with me the most.

Grave | 17 comments @Dustin: what pub was that from?


message 10: by Dustin (new)

Dustin Overschmidt | 11 comments He was in the Darth Bane Series, Rule of Two. He was one of the jedi to go face Bane and Zannah on Tython. He used the double bladed lightsaber.

John | 3 comments I always enjoyed the Rancor Keeper from Jedi. About thirty seconds of screen time and a few pages in Tales from Jabba's Palace.

Agreed. That was one of my favorite short stories from the EU.
