The odds were 3,280:1. That's pretty durn good odds, or put another way, a pretty slim chance of hitting anything.

Of course, it is hard to impress the angry girl if the smartass walking Speak-N-Spell points out that what you're doing is perfectly safe, which is why he shouted that line...

Boba Fett is one bad MF'er, but Han is even more bad.He gets my vote as #1, with Boba Fett as a close second.

I am also a big fan of Admiral Ackbar. I have an original Ackbar Star Wars figure hanging from my radar detector cord in my car, because he's really good at telling where traps are.

For sheer awesomeness, its hard to top someone with talons for feet, 4 lightsaber-swinging arms, a skull face and an operating system made up of a few leftover asthmatic body parts. General Grievous is quite a character.

If you want the character who killed the most people, meet Steve, Imperial Gunner #32182-A.

He blew up two planets full of people, using nothing more than an off-the shelf television switcher from the 1970's.

(I used the same one in college.)

I would guess that Steve went to a straight fade to black for the closing shots on Alderaan

If Extended Universe counts, Wedge. No doubt Wedge. He is the embodiment of the rebellion. Lost his parents as a child, began smuggling weapons to the rebellion, started piloting snubs. Pretty much fought in almost every major engagement coming out on top without the advantage of the Jedi.

Otherwise, yeah, I'll grant you R2D2

That's true. And there is a sort of GRM-esque quality to him. I could absolutely see Obi-wan logging on here and being like "which one of you idiots built this?"

Still, he's no Han Solo.

Welp, looks like Adam Driver's character "Kylo Ren" will be dawning whats left of Vader's helmet in Episode 7, and that would mean he's probably not based on a Revan character.

Sorry, Sidious is pretty badass, and probably the most evil of all "Rule of Two" Sith. The guy can bring himself back to life using the Force. He's also one of the best lightsaber duelists, but prefers using the Force.

Outside the movies but within cannon, I'm going to say Darth Revan.

I always got the sense that Leia enjoyed the collar & chain, at least a little. I can work with that. So, Leia.

She made quite the impression on this 16yr old (at the time). So yes, another vote for Leia.

This question could literally lead to fisticuffs here at work.

Maybe not actual punches thrown, but for a sure a MCMAP technique or two

Wow, after reading all this, I suddenly realize I know very little about Star Wars...or you folks know way too much.

I'm with you sachilles......and I'm completely ok with being Star Wars ignorant. Ask me about something important....like Smokey and the Bandit, and I can give you information. But that's different, as it was real..... and Sally Field is much, much cuter than Carrie Fisher ever was. (although she was pretty cute as the psycho-ex in the Blues Brothers)
