darthbong Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Originally posted by slimking Ok Ok jediknights are supposed to be the good guys, well look back at the fights, Ep 1, It took two Jedi to take on maul! (unfair) they both lost as well, it took a fluke from Obi to win, he was beaten! Ep 2 it needed two to take on dooku, and they both lost, I wanna see a good fight between a dark jedi and a good jedi and the good guy wins not two on one – a proper fight like vader and luke! or mace and jango that was good You made some good points but your dead wrong about one thing: it was no fluke that obi-wan clevered maul. if you read the databank at http://www.starwars.com it says something along the lines of : after seeing he master slain obi wan tapped into the dark side to attack maul ultimatly losing his saber, it was only after calming himself and regaining control (the LIGHT SIDE) he was able to defeat maul. SEE! the dark side almost got him killed. pluis look at the yoda/dooku fight, sure it was pretty even most of the time, but in the end dooku had to pull a cheap-*** move to escape! to the dark side I say BAH! BAH, I SAY BAH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree. The symbiotic relationship between light and dark, good and evil, is needed to give some order to society. Without one, how can you justify the other. In fact, the Sith returning was just what the Jedi needed. Since the absence of the Sith, the Jedi had grown weak in the Force. Arrogance and complacency were harming the order. Remember what Mace Windu and Yoda said about arrogance. So, in a way, the Sith returning made the Jedi stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kryllith Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Originally posted by >-[The]-< *AsC* But, remember: Darth Maul is only an Apprentice ! And Qui Gon loose ! Hmm. Ok, ok Maul has a double-bladed saber, but ... As stated elsewhere, it's a fallacy to try and match the titles of Jedi and Sith. In the Sith you only have two. As such, the apprentice is not necessary someone the rank of a padawan or even a knight. Consider if the Jedi were the same way. Given the current Jedi, you'd probably have Yoda as the Master and Mace Windu as the apprentice... but we wouldn't consider Mace a padawan or knight would we?

Aayla's going to be so jealous... Seriously though, you know what might have been cool? If Aayla had been working with the Republic during the time of Jedi and she went undercover into Jabba's palace instead of Lando and Leia. Would have been pretty sweet to see her dance for Jabba, only mince him with her saber. And, of course, if she wears the bikini then all the better.

Norin Radd Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 You know, it's a shame that they never had an attractive Sith female. I think beauty with that element of evil wold have really been stunning. I know that the. . .*COUGH*. . .EU probably did, but that is a moot point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kryllith Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 Well there can be only two. If there was a Sith female then she and Palpatine would probably end up having sex all the time and Palpatine would never get any plans of galactic conquest put into action.

AgentSmith Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Well for Episode II (Even in pre-production of Episode I at some points) the art department and designers had made drawings and plans for a female Sith. The art drawings can be seen in 'The Art of Star Wars Episode II' and are fairly impressive. Only at the last minute did they cast Christopher Lee to play Count Doooku/Darth Tyranus and did they have a male Sith in Episode II instead of the art/development departments' female Sith prototype. Well as said Aayla does walk around in a metal bikini in 'Rite of Passage 1', though it's the comic ... a very realistically penciled one but still. I'd love to have seen Amy Allen portray Aayla that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaster21801 Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Someone produced a model/statue called Darth Edge that was a female, scantily clad and all. I'd post the pic in the forum but I think it might be a lil big... anyway, I'll link to it.

Sith Inquisitor Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Great pic, Jaster. It would have been an interesting twist to have a female antagonist in the Star Wars films, sort of a shame that they didn't follow through with it. A female Sith with the added benefits of a woman's beguiling personality would have made a formidable combination. Oh well, we always have Tavion from JKII(shivers fearfully).

AgentSmith Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Dude! That Sith chick looks scary!!! Eeek!!! *Jumps into Aayla's arms.* Hold me! I'm scared! (Well you gotta try no? ) But that looks like a very nicely done statue. Must have been some artist and all. Really awesome and detailed, I admire people who can actually make something like that. Tavion from JKIIJO is scary but she kinda looks weird too, a bit like she's a Desann groupie you know? Copying him and stuff? (Uhoh, I'm actually picturing Agent Smith -full Matrix look and outfit- hanging in Aayla Secura's -Amy Allen in full Ep II wardrobe and make-up- arms ... yeah! Looks funny I think.

Jedi_Monk Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 First of all, to ep2 Anakin: Dude, I am a complete SW purist! Look around these boards for my name and you'll find me bashing the EU more than anyone save MotionMan and ET Warrior! The movies are the only thing canon in SW; as far as I'm concerned all of the books, even the novelizations, are apocryphal! I even hate Zahn's books! I hold the EU in very little regard. But as a fan-fiction author, I do pick and choose which EU to add to my story and which to throw out. The EU holds some good elements (HRDs, the ancient Sith and Jedi wars and the story of Darth Bane). I think the comics are a lot closer to canon than any of the books since Lucas probably picks them up every once in a while, being a life-long comic fan (inserted Aayla into the movie just because he saw her on the cover of a comic, and a similar thing probably occured with the double-bladed lightsaber, as well). So, yeah, I pick and choose what to follow in the EU depending on whether it has the SW spirit or not. The Tales of the Jedi have the SW spirit, have the mythical quality I look for in something with the franchise name on it, so sometimes I go to them. And will certainly put them over the EU novels that hack-authors have been pumping out for the last decade. By the way, Plo Koon might just get jiggy with Aayla, why not? Ya know one of the reasons why I like SW more than ST? There's not so much inter-species... sex. Just seems too weird for me, even though they're all sentient species. Not being racist, or anything since they're not different races, they're completely different species... they'd be incompatable! Also a reason why I don't like some of the EU books (Winter and Ackbar?! GAH!!!). The only thing close to this we see in the movies is in Jabba's palace and well... Hutts are perverts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentSmith Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 Now what's wrong about a Sentient Program and a Twi'lek? It's all good! And that was Darkness 2 from Dark Horse comics Star Wars issue 33, an artwork by Jon Foster. Actually George Lucas bought (or just said 'gimme' ) some of Jon Fosters Star Wars art work. You write fan fic too Jedi_Monk? I'm currently working on a story of my own in the NJO era. I'm trying not to use too much techno babble and really get a good mystery going on on the why and how's of the force and the destiny of the Jedi, the origins of the Yuuzhan Vong. It seems more OT feel with so much that's mysterious and all, no? In your opinion is trying to find a suitable techno/sci-fi explanation for events or characters better or do you feel more to leave several things a mystery or just not mentioned? I'm always open to pointers and suggestions if you'd like to share some from your experiences, approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi_Monk Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 I don't think technobabble really belongs in a Star Wars story. Much of the technology in SW is impossible, anyway, but they shouldn't need explaining. Star Wars is intensely visual, and that's something you should try to capture in your writing; paint a picture for your reader. As far as technology goes, describe it in detail if it's important, tell what it does but not necessarily how it does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexandrus Posted July 10, 2002 Share Posted July 10, 2002 That Sith zebrak chick looks like she has been pumping iron for quite some time. To defeat an oponent she doesn't even need a saber, she can just kick his ass hand to hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
