I was thinking back to the last fights between Obi vs. Aninkin and Yoda vs. Sidious.

Noone dies? Ok so Anakin has no legs and 1 arm left...not dead but pretty close...without Ep3 we woudl never see how anakin becomes Darth Vader..he doesnt wear the suit for looks... _______________ Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??" |

The action was supreme, the acting wasn't so supreme. The best acting scene throughout the entire Star Wars Prequel saga with Anakin and Padme is the scene where they are looking out the window across the buildings with the setting sun on the horizon in the city before Anakin goes off to kill everyone and go mentally retarded. Ironically, they don't speak in it either. I took that best acting scene from somewhere but I don't remember where, but nonetheless, I agree completely. |

I thought the fights were the saving grace of the film, without them the film would have just been a conflicting set of events that made a bit of a hash of tieing up 5 of my favourite films. |

Quote: Ummm ok I didnt know that but comon you cant say that those last two fights were sorta pointless since noone dies, and everyone is restored to full health. Not really. Cause it ties in with EP4. Remember? ''Now I am the master.'' I'm not sure about yoda's, i guess audiences wanted to see Yoda kick some butt. But the Obi - Ani duel had a point, it tied the two trilogies together, which is what Lucas was aiming for. Anakin having no limbs, Obi meeting Vader for the second time, the reason why Anakin is burnt in ROTJ. It keeps the stories in chronological order, tying them together. _______________ Proud owner of El Vee For's 200th Comment, and Wicek's 2600th comment DaMi3N's 400th, Trad Redav's 666th.

Quote: and to watch a Master Sith expose the weakness of the Master Jedi Sorry, I just wanted to know what the weakness was. Hmmm... never looked at the duel that way. Just wondering, how did Palps expose Yoda's weakness? Yoda many times over says that the Jedi are proud... Maybe so proud that a Master, no not just any Master but the HEAD of the Jedi Council, a Master among Masters, would be so bold to take on a Sith Master...alone. Yoda's flaw is his own pride, he himself determined that he alone was powerful enough to face the Master Sith Darth Sidious, he was wrong. Obi Wan begged him...Yoda shoulda listened to the young Master who is quite possibly wiser than he. Quote: Palpatine did not beat or expose a weakness of Yoda's. Yoda was a victim of circumstances (and as all of you will know, the Force has its own ways of influencing the future). Yoda put up a good fight and if they were in different circumstances could have beaten him. I believe Yoda caught the lightning bolts and was pushed back. Your summation only strengthen my argument, since we admit that the Force is the power that binds the galaxy then "circumstance" is a product of the Force. Concluding that the Force was not with Yoda in his fight, and why not? We can only speculate but it is safe to say that the flaw most commonly mentioned in the movie is the Jedi's sense of self importance or pride that contributes to thier fall. Since the Jedi are supposed to remain humble, when they don't remain humble they lose that connection with the light side, since now an emotion called pride (a sin in some cultures mind you) influences a Jedi's decisions. Sidious is the only Master after his fight with Yoda, while Yoda's fall to the senate floor serves as a visual effect it also carries huge symbolism with it... being knocked off of ones "high horse" if you will _______________ “Arguing on the internet is like competing in the Special Olympics.

Not really. They tell a story. Of how Yoda goes into exile. And why. Plus C'mon! We HAD to see a GREAT JEDI MASTER duel the SITH MASTER. the story wouldn't have ended right if we didn't. Anakin and Obi-Wan. In my opinion Anakin is a horrible Jedi. Even when on the Lightside. Yes he has great insight and reflexes. But he still loses all of his limbs. Gets burnt to a crisp. Tricked by his Sith Master. For all his strengths, he has no will power. No control. He thinks he is invinsible and found out the hard way that he isn't. _______________ Brother to: Tamal, Kavar, J.D.,Jermia, Devlin, Ulic, Xiabara, Seij,Tarron Mib,>>>ROCK ON .My Spacescapes art page.My Everything Else art page.

they serve the purpose of entertainment, although one could easily see the heavily scripted fight was just a dance that a couple actors had rehearsed to nauseum, it was still amazing to watch a Jedi in his prime take down a Sith that is new to the Darkness, and to watch a Master Sith expose the weakness of the Master Jedi, it was great fun. We will never see anything remotely like it again, try to enjoy it without over analyzing. The "roasting" of Anakin was awesome, almost as good as watching him being encased in the familiar black armor. _______________ “Arguing on the internet is like competing in the Special Olympics.

he didnt spontainiously combust, his clothing caught fire from the lava contact. By definition "Spontaneous human combustion (SHC) is the burning of a person's body, allegedly without any external source of ignition. The combustion may result in simple burns and blisters to the skin, smoking, or a complete incineration of the body. The latter is the form most often 'recognised' as SHC. There is much speculation and controversy over SHC. It is not a proven natural occurence, but many theories that attempt to explain how SHC may happen also attempt to prove that it exists. Of these theories, the two most common explanations offered to account for apparent SHC are the non-spontaneous "wick effect" fire, and the rare discharge called static flash fires." _______________ The Force is my ally, and a powerful ally it is.
