Boba's name has been said on-screen in the OT twice, by Han in ROTJ: "Boba Fett?  Boba Fett?  Where?!"  Immediately after, Boba is accidentally killed.

I think if you remove him from ROTJ then his OT story is perfect - hired by Vader, captures Han, gets his cash, and he's out to catch more fugitives for more cash.  That's it.  I don't understand why people are so attached to his consistently-awful depiction in ROTJ.

Since the Jabba's palace scenes aren't nearly as offensive to his character as the sail barge scenes, my second choice is to simply remove him from the sail barge scenes and show Slave I taking off in the exterior shot of the palace.  I could live with the whole thing about him selling the Rebels the Death Star II's location, but I'd honestly rather not see that.  It's not needed.

Since I'm probably beginning to sound like a broken record (*cough*Kurgan*cough*), I'll shut up about that now - my feelings have been made known on this subject, and it's Ady's decision from here on in.
