DarthMuffin Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Originally posted by Mike Windu I too thought Mace was too arrogant in this movie. In the first and second episodes, he was still badass, but he wasn't all cocky about it. I think we have to understand that the Jedi Order was, to put it bluntly, in some deep crap. There's a war out there, and negociations are off. That's the worst scenario possible for a "by the code" Jedi. Also, they knew that there was a Sith Lord (their arch-enemy) somewhere behind all this, who would happen to be controlling the chancellor, and therefore the Republic. Wouldn't it be possible for Mace to be worried? Nervous? What I am saying is that Mace could have very much lost some of his control. Anakin does all the time, except that Mace remains "good" when it happens. Even the more powerful are not immune to stress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I don't see how removing a sith is against the jedi code. The sith are a perversion of the force. Sure Palpatine didn't have a saber, but he sure as hell wasn't helpless. He was in control of everything, he had to be destroyed. It was the only way to end the war and not send the galaxy into darkness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree...Windu had ample reason not to trust Anakin, mainly because he was getting so close to Palpatine. On top of that, I think that the entire council was suspicious when Palpatine wanted Anakin on the council, and none of them trusted him. So, Windu was just being honest when he said that Anakin would earn back some trust if he was right about Palpatine being the Sith Lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirLancelot Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 It was explained that the reason we never saw Darth Vader use force lightning was because his arms were prosthetics and you need to generate the bolts from organic flesh, like Palpatine. However, since he still had his arms in Episode III, I think it would have been a bit more dramatic for Anakin to have hit Padme with a dose of force lightning. This would have been symbolic of his rage. Choking was just a little too "subtle". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He foresaw Anakin coming, and this was his "checkmate" move to get Anaking to fall to the darkside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that that the reason Vader choked Padame was to show how he progressed into choking anyone who got on the wrong side of him - in this case, it was his wife! If he just fried her, there would be no character progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
