Crumb (and even then, Crumb only lives if he could make Jabba laugh every day). Bad People Abuse Animals: He doesn't treat animals that well, with the exception of Salacious B.Bad Boss: He harshly punishes anybody who fails him, often by feeding them alive to whatever monstrous pet he currently keeps.įennec Shand: "If you had spoken such insolence to Jabba, he would have fed you to his menagerie.".Arc Villain: Getting out from Jabba's thumb motivates much of Han's actions across the original trilogy, and saving Han from his clutches makes up the opening act of Return of the Jedi.Alice Allusion: The costume designer on Return of the Jedi acknowledged the Caterpillar from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland as an inspiration for Jabba the Hutt (although Roger Ebert pointed out that Jabba's face looks more like the Cheshire Cat).Adipose Rex: Though he's a fat crime lord instead of a fat king. ![]() Adaptational Villainy: As depraved as he is in canon, he's even worse in the Shakespearean adaptations of the films.However, Jabba laughs it off, declaring that he appreciates the bounty hunter for their stones, and agrees to meet the demand halfway.
