Also I'm disappointed that the EU relies so heavily on the idea of Boba just outshooting everyone and using all these weapons all the time and good stories where he outsmarts his enemy are kind of rare. Hell, in ESB he came out ahead by outsmarting Han. If the EU version of Boba had been in the movie, he'd have blasted the Millennium Falcon with all kinds of lasers and missiles and then hauled it with a tractor beam halfway across the galaxy to wherever the Imperial fleet had jumped to at that point.
