Let's tell a story:

Filer

Jr Hunter
Let's script the stand alone Boba Fett movie treatment together and send it to Disney - world's first crowd-sourced major motion picture film outline?

Star Wars music and scrolling text establishing we are on Tatooine and Jaba has just been killed, hundreds of people have been killed by the Jedi terrorist, and the future of Jaba’s criminal empire is in peril…

(screen black)

Sounds: high pitched screeching accompanied by loud banging, distant battle sounds and explosions. Near and distant “human” screams… and intermittent sound of flame being lit and extinguished.

(fade in)

Fett views the explosions of Jaba's skip through his rangefinder while hovering just inside the Sarlacc's "jaws". A tentacle raises to wrap around his leg, but darts from his right gauntlet fire and cause immediate necrosis and death of the Sarlacc's tentacle. Fett observes as the Jedi his company escape in a small skip - and floats, seemingly effortlessly out of the pit.

Background: Fett has a history with the Jedi, he's hunted and killed many for the Empire over the years, and he knew this young one would return for Solo. He just needed to wait and watch in proximity to Jaba. Why? Overthrowing a criminal empire with force would be problematic - taking by force would allow criminal syndicates on other world’s grounds to also challenge for control. Fett understands Empires, and rulers, be they criminal or political, need to be feared and loved equally to survive. He would feign support for Jaba's pointless quarrel with Solo and the Jedi - wait until Jaba's pride destroyed himself - survive the Jedi's "massacre" - and be there to pick-up the pieces and take control, obviously.

The blast doors open to ‘Fett's Palace’.

(opening credits)

Fett reassures the survivors – he’s the only one to return alive from the Jedi’s massacre, which comforts the drug producers, money launderers, dancers and prostitutes that remained at the Palace. Enough remains to continue operations, and Oola survived the Rancor pit. She never told Jaba of her suspicions of Fett's plans, despite it almost costing her life - she’s earned her place in the new empire.

(keep it going…)
