Thank you!!! It actually took Vader to defeat Solo

Give the youngling a couple years, Clone Wars has some heavy story lines for being an animated series. Has he seen Rebels? That's a little more little-little friendly. I won't ding you any points for Spaceballs, I love it, too! Sadly my younglings are 7 and 8, so too old and too young for Spaceballs. I'm counting down to when they can watch it and Fanboys, though.
Clone Wars is great. I even like the "serial news" style it is done in.
Agreed, I like Clone Wars, too. I didn't pay much attention to it the first time through, then the other Mandos/Stormies were talking about it at an armor party so we're re-watching for my benefit.

Yeah well, you can't even spell BOBA Fett, and you have Artoo as your avatar, therefore your opinion is not one we'll be trusting on this matter.
the Clone Wars was pretty good, and Rebels is shaping up to be almost as good once you get past the Disney animation style. that's as far as i've ever dug into the extended universe.
i'm pretty sure they will cover some of the Han Solo/Boba Fett history in that series.
In reply to Streetwiseguy:
I had that same feeling when I went to my first armor party. They were all standing around talking about things I had never even noticed, I hid in the corner and worked on my bucket.

Boba Fett was really good at two things:
I liked the Clone Wars series by Genndy Tartakovsky. I didn't watch the later CGI series, although I did catch one scene with a group of stormtroopers admitting one by one that they were off "polishing their guns" when they should've been doing other things...LMAO! XD

they were clone troopers during the clone wars, all clones of Boba Fett's father, Jango Fett.. they all aged out pretty quickly and were replaced by humans after the Republic became the Empire, probably because they didn't need millions of disposable troops to kill and be killed by droid armies once the war was over and they became a standing "peacetime" army that only had to deal with a few pockets of rebel resistance.
