WOW!

 

I ACTUALLY think you hate Maul more than Jar Jar....

 

Come ON people! Lets get a little perspective here!

 

JAR JAR BINKS....! Destroyer of the Old Republic.Descendant of a Slimy Toad Fish. All round Class A *******.

 

Direct your anger towards the REAL swine of the piece.

Yeah, good idea, let's kill off the whiners and let all the cool ones live.

I'm unsure. I personally dislike Maul since all he mostly did was prance about, die and not saying any funny lines, unlike the Emperor and Darth Vader. :D

 

On the other hand, in the EP1 video game, his dancing about is very funny. Plus I suppose he wasn't that bad of an actor.

 

I'll vote no, since most people probably like him. :)

There are these cults with these characters

 

1) Boba - I love this guy!

2) Maul - Ehh, he's cool, loved Shadow Hunter

3) Aurra Sing - She was in the movie for what? 2 seconds, no way, I hate her

4) Jango - A cool spin on the Boba we thought we knew. Adds even more mystery to Boba...

WHAT?

 

"At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last, we shall have revenge."

 

The line itself is so choc-full of vengeance in itself that needed very little acting. I mean, ok, so the acting wasn't superb, but to be fair, you could have had Leia read that out, and it still would have sounded really sinister. So nyaaah!

 

But yeah, I have to concede that he did just feel like a random element thrown in to tie things together the way he just appoeared in the story with no back-history and no fleshing out. I mean, I'm sitting here admitting this, and I thought he was the best character ever created within the SW universe.

maul is kinda like boba, in his first appearence boba didn't say much at all and really had no backstory, he gave that mysterious feeling like maul, you want to know more about him. don't get me wrong, i like them both very much, but they are a lot alike, the difference is that boba made past his first movie appearance and didn't get killed off right away like maul did.:mad:

I thouht maul was incredible!! Lucas was pretty dumb to kill off a character that had a great presence such as maul. He should have had maul escape obi wan in episode 1, just amagine maul in the clone wars. WOuldnt it make more sense to have the anakin get his ass whooped by the man who killed his first mentor in the force.

I think Maul was made to look so evil-cool so that when Obi-Wan killed him, it would make Obi-Wan look like even more of a bad-ass.

 

Of course they ruined it with his terrible saber skills (and confidence) in Ep. 2.

I think that they made Anakin & Obi-Wan fall so quickly to Dooku so that Yoda would get his fighting scene. Because it doesn't quite make sense how some who lasted very long and even defeated a Sith as a more apprentice would suddenly not be able to last for two minutes against another Sith when he is a very capable Jedi Knight
