Boba Fett

Lol, nice Homestar Runner quote, Tom!

 

Personally, I have no problem with Boba's origin in the films. After all, it's Lucas' story, he can do what he wants with it. I don't mind at all that he's a clone. It's a way of explaining how he became such a good bounty hunter; it runs in the family. It also explains a bit of Boba's eagerness to defeat Luke in ROTJ. After all, Luke's kind killed his father, the only person he could count on, the only person he loved. (much as Boba was the only person Jango truly loved) There are plenty of contradictions in EU anyway. For me, I read some of the books, think about what I read, and decide for myself which ones I want to believe and which ones don't work for me. I can't explain it, but some books I've read just don't have that Star Wars "feel" to it. For those works, I simply choose to believe that such a story never happened. Other stories I've read or heard about, but I've changed them to fit my version of the Star Wars saga. For example, my version of the Great Sith War is VERY different from the books. It still has the same general themes to it, (Exar Kun and his double bladed saber, defeated at Yavin, thousands of Sith) but it's definitely a different version of it. After all, part of the magic of Star Wars is letting one's imagination run wild. Your only limit is your imagination, and your imagination can sometimes conjure up a more vibrant, colorful, and fantastic story than even the best author could ever hope to accomplish.

Boba Fett was meant to always be a minor character in Star Wars however due to his immense popularity; he was given a much bigger role such as a guest appearance in Star Wars A New Hope Special Edition and I'm quite sure the link between the Stormtroopers and him was only done due to his popularity.
