I think that Asajj Ventress is the most under-rated character. She is only mentioned or seen in the Clone Wars cartoon. I would have liked to have seen her character at least mentioned in Episode II or III. She is the one that scared Vader's face, and yet not even a mention of her. And what happend to her ship after Vader flew off with it?

Well, if you're talking EU, then I'd have to say Corran Horn...he's just all business. If you're talking just the movies/TV, I'd go with Admiral Piett...because he failed Vader, and yet lived! May the Force be with you!

Underrated? hm.... EU: Calista - there's hardly a mention of her after Planet of Twilight. I mean, we don't even know if she's still alive.......... ooooh I hope she comes back now that Mara's dead!

I totally agree with Ventress as underrated. I read somewhere that she was supposed to be the apprentice in EpII until Christopher Lee signed on as Dooku. What a jip! aside from her, I'd say Lando or the Arc Trooper commander from Clone Wars.

I think there are countless under-rated characters in the Star Wars Universe. Right off the top I think Beldorion is under-rated. After all, he's the only Hutt to ever be a Jedi!
and yea he became a Dark Jedi too.

I think the most under-rated character is General Grevious in ROTS. In the Clone Wars cartoon, he's kicking butt from left to right. But in ROTS General Grevious is kind of lame.

Not many people like Callista...I bet she does show up again in Legacy though. One more reason for me not to touch it...
Anyway. Underrated...the three Jedi from 'Yoda: Dark Randezvous', Whie, Scout, and their master. I think they're awesomely made characters and need to have more written about them. In the actual movies...I wanna hear Kit Fisto talk!

I would have to say Shaak Ti. We are about to see how good she can be in the new force unleashed video game.
Not to mention she survived the attack on the Jedi temple. Plus look at what she did in the clone wars cartoons.

Yeah, she was pretty awesome in the cartoons. She's in Force Unleashed? Cool.

Underarted in movies: Commander Cody- his turn on Obi should have been more shocking or you should have felt betrayel.
In EU- Ventress is great, i dont think the cartoon does her justice. The comics and books are so much better.

In my opinion I would say ARC Troopers. They are supposedly a key part of the clone wars, yet we never see them in the movies. In the cartoons(which were incredible) they kicked a$$, but got no respect in the movies.

Kyle Katarn, Dash Rendar, or Mara Jade Skywalker. All very good, well-developed characters, yet not very well known to people who have only seen the movies and not read any of the novels or played any of the games. And personally I say they don't know what they're letting themselves miss.
