british lad Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 What did you guys think of Ki-Adi-Mundi's death scene? Compared to most of the jedi's death I think he got the best, I love the music for it and him shouting "come on" to his troops and then suddenly turn on him and the look on his face was brilliant. Plus he got to take down some of the plastic faced clones with him
MachineCult Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 I suppose it was one of the better order 66 deaths, I didn't see him take any Clones down though.
arkodeon Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 He deflected shots with his lightsaber before going down. I think that's what he means.
MachineCult Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 The Padawan at the temple put up a much better fight TBH.
Justus Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 Yeah that padawan wasted quite a few of those plastic boys before finally getting it.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 The Padawan at the temple put up a much better fight TBH. Then again, it was a totally different scenario. Ki-Adi-Mundi really had no chance of surviving. Zett choose to save Senator Organa. Though, it was a rather noble cause. I suppose it was one of the better order 66 deaths, I didn't see him take any Clones down though. I looked like he did have a chance to take down any. Plus he was suprised, I think.....because they had rebelled against him for the time being.
arkodeon Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Still, Zett was facing thousands of Clonetroopers, and managed to fight his way onto the balcony. The way he died, though... doesn't sit well with me. ): He should have survived. That way, he could have been in the TV show. D:
Justus Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I'm not so sure he was trying to save Bail Organa or not. The clones make no attempt at killing him, and even after Bail witnesses Zakk taking out a few of the clones, you can hear a clone shout "Let him go" even though he is an eye witness to what had just transpired. Personally I think Zakk was trying to make his way to Bail's speeder so he could escape.
SirLancelot Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I would have to agree. Ki Adi Mundi did have the best "Oder 66 execution" of the Jedi int he film. Ironic, when you figure he was the least military minded of the Jedi Council. I hoped my baby, Aayla, would have had a more dramatic death(actually I was hoping she would have escaped)but they shot her in the back. *SNIFF*
MachineCult Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Your baby Aayla? What makes you say that Ki-Adi Mundi was the least military minded?
Justus Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Ki-Adi-Mundi seems to be one of the few Jedi who actually got to face his betrayers, the rest of the clones used cowardly tactics against the Jedi - shooting them in the back, blasting them off of speeders etc. I think the clones needed the element of suprise on their side since they knew they would've had a harder time facing an aware Jedi. I don't think any Jedi were exactly military minded, they were more or less thrown into a conflict and were forced to assume that role. I'm sure there were alot of Jedi that felt uneasy in that kind of role, but they were fighting for what they thought was the survival of the Republic, and that was the Jedi's first priority.
Fealiks Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Ki-Adi did have the best death. It was great, he was so shocked. His reaction wasnt bad but it didnt get him anywhere. Zett put up an amazing fight, hes such a good swordsman! Interestingly enough Zett was played by Jett (Lucas) George Lucas' son.
lord ignarn Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Ki Adi had the best death, others weren´t so lucky. But the deaths shown in the movie were of those jedi that weren´t too know, let´s be fair, not a lot people know Plo Koon, Ki Adi Mundi... I think it´s some kind of tribute to them.
MachineCult Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 I really liked Plo Koons death scene, just because of the amazing scenery on the planet and that great line Temuera Morrison delivered.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Isn't this about Ki-Adi-Mundi? lol. Yes, his death may have been the better of the deaths. But he died nonetheless. Anyway, I think Mace Windu got the "better" death. Only because there was an actual battle.
lord ignarn Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Actually I found Maces death a bit disapointing. I know that it show the evil nature of the dark side, the deception of Palpatine,and Anakins full entrance in the dark side. But I would have prefered he falling in the battle against Anakin or Palpatine, not receiving force shock and then falling from the window.
Fealiks Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Maces death was rubbish. Palp ruined it by being such a crap swordsman; if it was real mace would have owned palpatine
Commander Obi-Wan Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 And mace Windu did own Palpatine, but Anakin "sliced" of Mace's hand that had the loghtsaber before he could destroy the Sith Lord.
Fealiks Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 oh yeah... sorry I haven't watched it in ages. I would've liked to have seen more clone-slaying by the jedi before they got killed, it was pretty annoying seeing one of the only people putting any effort in it to be Zett.
j-muny Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 I think all the jedi got a pretty brutal death, mace's death struck a nerve with me, He basically beat palpatine and then anakin cut his hand off then palp killed him and acted like he was the top dog. It makes me mad everytime i watch that scene haha. i have the widescreen version of the movie, and ki adi mundi does kill like 2 or 3 clones while they are shooting at him. Its in there just look harder.
MachineCult Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 oh yeah... sorry I haven't watched it in ages. I would've liked to have seen more clone-slaying by the jedi before they got killed, it was pretty annoying seeing one of the only people putting any effort in it to be Zett. lol, and Yoda.
Redtech Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Windu's death is embarrasing. I mean, he screams like a girl, the Emperor goes "UNLiiiiiiiiiiiimited POW3r" like a n00b on X-box live (with voice chat for the first time) and Annakin bows down in front of Palp's crotch. Give me Jar Jar destroying the Trade feds any day of the week.
Prime Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Emperor goes "UNLiiiiiiiiiiiimited POW3r" ****ing awesome.
Fealiks Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 lol, and Yoda. the shorties really are the best, arent they? i have the widescreen version of the movie, and ki adi mundi does kill like 2 or 3 clones while they are shooting at him. Its in there just look harder. you dont need to look harder you just need to open your eyes! Its right in there! He deflects blaster bolts ... they hit the clone troopers ... one of the bolts hits ki-adi, its that simple.
Kurgan Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 One bolt hits him? More like a dozen! Go frame by frame, he gets hit by a huge barrage of fire! Of course "the one that got through" is what starts it, sure...
