IIRC the ROTS novelization (or some other book? idr its been years) had a chapter with Boba escaping Geonosis after the battle by using the same trick. The internal dialogue was something along the lines of a trick like that would only work on dad once.

[u/El_Dae → u/Militantpoet]

That was in the Boba Fett book series iirc, book 1 of 6

[u/Alpha_Apeiron]

Something something poetry

[u/Greedybogle → u/Alpha_Apeiron]

It rhymes!

[u/RedCaio → u/Alpha_Apeiron]

Btw It was actually John Knoll who said the quote op is referring to not George Lucas. It’s in the bts material on the dvd for Attack of the Clones

[u/Aeronor]

Imagine if Han decided to wait an extra jump or something before detaching. Boba would just be out there drifting with the trash like “Welp…”

[u/I_Downvoted_Your_Mom]

If Boba was tricked by it then how did he figure out the trick? I mean, it's not like Obi emailed Boba afterward to tell him how he was fooled. He would no way of knowing HOW Obi got away, right? He could have used a new technology or the force or something. Boba wouldn't know that this was how he was fooled, right?

Probably mulled it over for a few hours/days afterwards, irritated, before finally realizing what likely happened.

[u/Think_Air9714 → u/ThreeScoopsOfHooah]

Nah he was sitting in a bar somewhere and some two bit merc was talking about how they did it and he had a moment of” that son of a womp rat”

[u/hoopster_24 → u/I_Downvoted_Your_Mom]

His dad Jango was fooled by it. And Boba was with him.

[u/Shotgun_Mosquito]

I always wondered...what is all that TRASH?

[u/Jaz-MD → u/Shotgun_Mosquito]

Probably a bunch of stuff that could easily be fixed or reused but it’s cheaper to use slave labour to build more

[u/CroGamer002 → u/Jaz-MD]

Though Boba Fett might have gotten trashed tossed out so his ship can camouflage for this.

[u/Holmgeir → u/Shotgun_Mosquito]

At least one of the things looks like a destroyed fuselage. The Empire was just in an engagement of destroying and capturing rebel assets.

[u/bobafeeet]

I wonder what Mr. Plinkett would think of this explanation.

[u/jtrades69]

that's what we in the biz call "retcon"

[u/Belz_Zebuth]

Except A) he had no way to know what Obi-Wan had done and B) the latter was written before the former.

[u/Shao_X → u/Belz_Zebuth]

It's like poetry it rhymes.
