Apprentice would tool him with the force...but Anakin is a better duelist.

DING DING DING!!! YOU SAID THE MAGIC WORD!!! eek!

I think that was what I said to start off the 40 page politics discussion that was so much fun.

Starkiller easily.

Why does everyone think:

mace is good at sabers but bad at force (BS)
yoda is good at force but bad at sabers ( huh )
anakin is good at sabers but bad at force (not really)
vader is good at force but bad at sabers (really?)
njo luke rocks at everything
sidious is good at force and bad at sabers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gnjyp0nSqc

Bad isn't the word I would use to describe his force power.


I doubt many people think that



Anakin probably has the most raw power in the force then anyone in star wars but he has hardly mastered it.


Vader isn't bad in saber combat (I believe someone has a quote that says he either mastered all forms save for Vapaad or has a lot of knowledge on them) but his mobility would become a factor vs the faster characters


That is up for debate depending on what time in the NJO series but I don't know enough about NJO Luke and prior to it to answer how powerful he is.


Sidious is beast at both as is Yoda.

Hewhoknowsall
What I'm trying to say is that they always say "ROTS Anakin wins in sabers but loses in force"

Darth_Glentract
Because his Force abilities are overshadowed by his saber skill.

.......Because his opponents are more powerful then Anakin, due to his lack of mastery of the force.

He is amazing at sabers, and average with the force. With the exception of the metaphysical aspect of Vaapad, he has few force showings other than TK- the manipulation of a landslide and Force Crushing Grievous. He isn't superb with the force, but he certainly is powerful.

NonSensi-Klown
A landslide of rock isn't "impressive"? That's possibly hundreds of tons.

Mace tore down entire armies with the force, crushed Grievous with ease(where most jedi failed to harm him with the force), ride a landslide of over a hundred ton of rock. He was also the only known jedi to truly master vapaad, and channel his inner darkness into a weapon of light, or redirect sith lightning with his saber.

I say he is pretty up there. He is certainly far above average.

Red Nemesis
Was the army killing feat done with the Force? I thought it was just his ridiculous speed- not a force attack. I could be wrong though- it wouldn't be the first time.



The saber duel was hardly easy, and I don't know of any other Jedi attacking the General with the Force at all. Proof please? Just to see where the idea came from- I do believe you.


I gave vaapad as a feat, but it was really a philisophical one, rather than Force related one. All he did with Vaapad was reconcile his love of fighting with the light side of the Force- hardly an example of strength.


This was a function of vaapad- not a showing of strength. Heck, it even says in the novel that Mace wasn't strong enough to continue- had Palpatine continued the onslaught (even while holding back) Mace would have died.

I don't want to say that he's weak, but to put him on a level with Yoda, Sidious, Dooku or other real greats seems irresponsible.

Yes Force amplified blows and speed, not to mention a ridiculous Force wave.

Not talking about the Saber duel, this is in CW chapter 20, Grievous is loading the chancellor into his shuttle, Mace's LAAT arrives, it gets shot down, Mace Jumps out, lands next to Grievous. Grievous immediately draws four blades, Mace implodes the General's chest, and their goes uber CW Grievous, hello lame ROTS Grievous. And in Obsession he smashed Grievous with a STAP. THe General also has dodged Force Pushes on multiple occassions in the CW, and quite casually at that.


I can agree with that in the PT those three are nigh peerless, but we should at least admit he's damn close.

I think it's a sterotype, and Yoda being bad at sabers? Some say that Anakin could beat him in that no

Master Crimzon
Anakin being able to beat in you in sabers doesn't make you a bad duelist. In fact, Anakin tooled one of the finest swordsman in history with little effort (Dooku).

Though, I do believe that within the PT, Yoda, Sidious, Mace, and to some extent Obi-wan are capable of defeating Anakin in a duel.

He and Obi Wan got pwned for a while and Dooku was able to easily seperate the two. Anakin won, but not "easily"

Yoda, Sidious and Mace could easily, and Obi Wan already beat him:

What has Dooku ever done to put him above Mace with the force? Mae has more nd better feats, from what I've seen.

Because Dooku can launch lightning, and people are like "whoo... Mace never did anything like that".... smile

But I think that Mace could easily beat Dooku if he could beat Sidious.

Urm how about putting Ventress to the floor by merely lifting a finger, whilst Ventress escaped from Mace without too much difficulty in "Schism". The ONLY other Jedi to dominate Ventress SOOOOO Badly is Yoda.

also how about disposing of ROTS Obi1 with a flick of his wrist.
Force tossing The Chosen One on his rear twice in the Clone Wars movie.

and having a Force fight with Yoda, even deflecting one of Yodas attacks, and Yoda didnt actually defeat him in the Force fight(not that he culdnt). But It was only the Saber fight in which Yoda dominated Dooku.

Mace has no such feats agaisnt other Powerful Force users like those feats of Dookus.

and if your talking about Maces TK feats beating Dookus... well in that case Mace's TK feats also beat PT Sidious.

Mace blocked Sidious's force lightning.

Mace used a unique style that was ideal for the fight against the sith lord- his reflection of the lightning was a function of his saber style.

Upon re-reading your post, I have found 2 more problems: Mace was unable to block the lightning- the novel has him "choking on ozone" without any strength left to fight against his blade, and that was when Palpatine wasn't using his full power.

Also, Kenobi was able to block (your words- not mine) Dooku's force lightning. Blocking lightning isn't a force feat unless you use your hands like Yoda, Kota or Starkiller. Raskta Lsu was able to catch Bane's lightning but it does not show her Force strength.

Tooling of Kenobi, Bulq, Ventress, Grievous, and Anakin with the Force, the Count is nigh peerless with the Force in the PT era sans Sidious and Yoda. And no Mace would not 'easily' beat someone like Dooku. Dooku has in fact defeated Mace in sabers before, many argue: "well Mace hadn't mastered Vappad yet and became far more powerful after TPM" my answer to that is what do you think the good Count was doing then, sipping tea? No he was under the tutelage of the greatest Sith Lord in history; his imperial majesty Palpatine. He was recieving the best training the Dark Lords could offer. Mace has never demonstrated the ability to tool another Force user as Dooku has on multiple occasions. He is quite powerful, but Dooku is simply better

When using Vaapad in training sessions, the metaphysical aspects: fueling the fight with love of combat- let alone the metaphysical "superconducting loop" effect- would not come into play. Mace is at his strongest when fighting against the dark side. Darth Tyrranus is of the Dark Side. Mace gets a boost that he didn't have before.

Not true. Darth Maul got the best training the dark lords could offer. Dooku already had been trained in technique- he was already a skilled swordsman and force practicioner. Dooku's "tutelage" under Sidious consisted mainly of learning to tap the Dark Side. Indeed, his thoughts in DR (YDR) suggest that he hadn't had much Sith force knowledge imparted to him at all.

He beat Kar by using the Force. He tooled grievous twice with the force. He's good.

I guess Qui Gon is also better than Windu.

As Red said, Mace easlily crushed Grievous with the force. Not too many jedi can claim that accoplishment. Not even Obi Wan.

He is quite powerful, but Dooku is simply better I'm not arguing, but Mace doesn't have as many opportunities to "tool" someone with the Force. The Count has such a much larger roster to pick from. 10,000 Jedi to be exact. Mace has... like 5? One of which is Palps, the other his peer.

1) Ventress had no way to escape. Dooku slambed her into the wall (i believe). Also i don't believe Ventress expected Dooku to attack her. Dooku hinted that Sidious showed him the same treatment that Dooku showed Ventress. If so would that make Sidious far above Yoda?

2) Mace never fought Obi Wan or Anakin. He did easily take Grievous out with the force. The same Grievous that gave Obi Wan an extremely hard fight... The same Grievous that killed numerous of other jedi, including some masters. Grievous also dodged force attacks from other jedi masters.

3) Yoda never threw any force attacks at Dooku, so what force attack did Dooku deflect? Yoda anly stood there blocking or redirecting everything Dooku threw at him.

4) He defeated Kar Vastor with the force.

5) Do you remember Sidious ripping senate pods from their durasteel restraints, and lifting them high above his head then throwing them at Yoda with ease. He did all this while levitating himself in mid-air, along with the pod he was standing on.

Could you be more specific, I am aware that Mace broke his force grip but when he did defeat Vastor at the end of the book Vastor didn't tryio block the vibroshield with the force so I'm not sure how much of a plus this can be for Mace.

it was in Dark Rendesvouz.. and she was simply paralyazed, and in extreme pain. so theres no way she could have fought back or escaped even if she wanted to. and this was all by simply lifting a finger!

Mace has no such Force feat anywhere. Ventress escaped from him in Schism.. he was only dominating her in Sabers. If he could have paralyzed her with the Force the way Dooku or Yoda have done, then surely he would have to stop her escaping. Therfore Mace has not showed himself to be in Dookus league with the Force. Simple as.

Not to mention Dooku also paralyzed Obi1 mid saber fight. Is there any evidence anywhere that Mace could take a Jedi/Force User as powerful as Obi1 THAT EASILY with the Force?? Nope!

Considering Dookuy dominated GG in their sparring sessions via sabers and via the force, your point proves absolutely nothing.
Not to mention Obi finished his Saber fight with GG via a powerful Force Push after which GG was disarmed and running away from Obi1.
Oh and lets no forget the obvious, which is that GG has no defence against Force attacks, apart from trying to dodge them.
So again Mace has none of the impressive feats against other FORCE USERS that Dooku has. It seems Mace only has impressive feats against those who can not use the Force.

when Yoda shot back Dooku's lightning at Dooku you honestly dnt think Yoda put his own power into that shot???
And whatever Yodas tactic was in that fight, it doesnt change the fact that he had a Force Fight with Dooku and didnt beat Dooku down. How many other people do you think can even Compete with Yoda in a Force fight??? Mace certainly hasnt proven he can.

Ok Senate pods? and Dooku chucks a massive pillar at Obi1 and Anakin in AOTC, and a massive landing platform at Obi1 in ROTS.

However none Dookus or Sidious's TK Force feats compares to Mace's TK in the CW cartoon, where his massive Force waves take out an entire Driod armada. which is a blatantly exagerated feat of course as Mace wasnt able to replicate this in AOTC.. but either way if your going to use that argument then Mace also beats PT Sidious in TK feats.

Your arguement is kinda like saying Obi Wan is stronger than Marka Ragnos, since we never see Ragnos fight anyone powerful. Most of Windu's enemies at that time were battle droids. How many force users are there on the CIS side? How many force users are on the republic's side? Of course Dooku is most likely going to face more force users. Dooku has beaten more force users than Yoda or Sidious has at that time. Does that make him superior to them? Dooku also hinted that Sidious tooled him with the force, the same way Dooku tooled Ventress with the force. So i guess that would mean Sidious is far above Yoda.

And no i do not believe Yoda put any power into the lightning Dooku threw at him. He used Dooku's own power against him. The only power used was absorbing and redirecting.

Think about Dooku's TK feats you listed, and compare them to what Sidious did. I think the senate pods were a greater feat, seeing that Yoda could not even catch them with the force, except for one, barely. Yoda is known for his super speed, but had a hard time dodging all those senate pods coming at him, meaning that not only was Sidious able to throw the senate pods, but also at very great speed.Dooku has never thrown anything that heavy with that kind of speed. Yoda did shrug off all of Dooku's TK attacks, and even caught the pillar.

Darth Power was implying that Dooku deflected a force attack from Yoda, when really it was Dooku's own attack he deflected. The point was that Yoda was not attacking Dooku with the force. Obi Wan can stand there throwing things at Yoda, while Yoda shrugs all the attacks. That doesn't mean Obi Wan was a competition.

My bad I didn't see your first post on the subject so I apologize for that. It is a lot easier to silence any Galen fanboys (which surprisingly I haven't see all that many on here) due to the novel, that Vader nearly killed him on Corellia and the fact that he actually died helps. From what I understand the star destroyer was already falling and he redirected its flightpath.

But I can't count how many times I heard people saying that Revan is the "heart of the force," that he never truly fell to the darkside even when he was a sith, you get the idea.

sigma-ct42
it's alright.i probably could have responded in a better fashion,i just didn't feel like an argument.



you are correct. though despite it being an obvious fact some galen fanboys still believe he pulled it from the sky.which annoys me greatly.



but is that honestly as bad as:

HE PULL SHIP OUT OF DA SKY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111111ONE

The novel isn't online yet so I haven't read it yet but I recall hearing that it took him great difficulty so that could be used against people saying he pulled it down with ease.



Meh, I know the novel makes the vader fight more diffiuclt than the game makes it out to be, as far as the emperor goes I would say that the emperor was feigning weakness which Galen evens says in the cutscene and I would quote this from the official databank Lightsabers clashed inside the Emperor's observation dome, but Starkiller was ultimately no match for the power of Darth Sidious.

Your arguement is kinda like saying Obi Wan is stronger than Marka Ragnos, since we never see Ragnos fight anyone powerful. Most of Windu's enemies at that time were battle droids. How many force users are there on the CIS side? How many force users are on the republic's side? Of course Dooku is most likely going to face more force users.

has anyone else noticed the hypocricy in this argument?? Sidious66 is saying that because weve not seen Mace take out other powerful force users out with just the Force like Dooku has, does not mean he cant.. he says Mace can do these things we just havent seen it yet..

and yet his argument for Mace being so uber and superior with the force to Dooku is the CW mini cartoon where Mace takes on an armada of droids, using Force TK(something he culdnt do in AOTC but never mind). well guess what?? weve never seen Dooku take on an armada of droids before either!!! so by your own argument that proves nothing! so stop using hypocricy, if u apply an argument for Mace, then the same applies vice versa for Dooku.

Neway proof that Dookus Force Mastery is superior is the 2 opponents that both Mace and Dooku have faced. Asajj Ventress and Sora Bulq. Though Mace was can comftobly beat both(especially Ventress) he did not take out either ANY WHERE NEAR as easily as Dooku, solely due to Dookus superior Force powers. He renders Bulq completley unconcious with his Force Lightning mid saber fight, and just compleltey paralayzes Ventress by lifting a finger. If Mace could do this then neither of those 2 would have escaped in Schism. ALso Dark Rendezvous calls Dooku the Temples "Most Learned in the Ways of the Force.." whens Mace's Force mastery been described as the best or most learned anywhere??

so thats it. Mace may or may not be Dookus superior in Sabers but all the evidence suggests Dooku is his superior in Force Mastery. Deal with it.

and watch the scene again where Yoda shoots the FL back at Dooku. He pushes his hand forward suggesting hes putting his own force into it as well.

seriously your making Yoda out to be a complete idiot. Just standing there doing nothing to stop Dooku when he apparantly easily could??? clearly Yoda wasnt too bothered about the Clone Wars starting??!!

Now Yoda is significantly superior to Dooku in the Force. But Dooku has proved hes one of the very elite who can even COMPETE with Yoda in the Force. Again deal with it.

We see dooku taking out more force users than Sidious, so i guess he is more powerful.



So because he didn't do so in AOTC, makes him doing so in CW non-canon. Besides it would have been foolish of him to use a massive wave in AOTC with a lot of jedi standing within his radius.

Did you read my other post where i quoted the directer of CW, stating that Windu was second to Yoda in terms of power.



You are the only one using that arguement. I never said Mace taking out the droids automatically made him Dooku's superior. I used it as an example of how powerful Mace was.



Dooku greatly hints that Sidious took him out with the force the same way the same way Dooku did Ventress. So, again, would that make Sidious greater than Yoda, since Yoda did not take Dooku out the the force



Well the directer of CW says he is second to Yoda, and that he is "the number two most powerful". Also GL says you have to be either Yoda or Windu to even compete with Sidious. Oh yeah and a full potential Anakin.




I just brought out proof he wasn't. Unless you claim to have more authority over the SW universe than the directer of CW.

Since when is the word of a LucasArts worker not named Lucas canon?

Not that it matters; Mace may be the second most powerful Jedi, but Dooku is no longer a Jedi. He is a Sith Lord who has the benefit of being the "best" student to come out of the Temple in recent times.

Mace has Vaapad. Dooku does not.

According to Gideon, who cites some visual guide or another, Sidious killed Agen and Saesee before Mace knew what happened. Had the two been alone before Mace had managed to sink into Vaapad, Palpatine would've probably slaughtered him.

ABC arguments don't work.

DOOKU IS NOT A JEDI.

What?



Except he didn't say jedi. He said number 2 most powerful, period.

It reminds of how people argue that the Statement " Sidious is the most powerful sith" can mean of his time only.



Oh so Lucas was refering to Mace's vaapad, which is still a force accomplishment.



So if Sidious was able to kill Windu that fast, Windu would not be a competition, thus making GL wrong.



Im not the one using arguements like " So and so can defeat so and so, because they beat more force users, even though there were hardly any force users for Mace to fight".



He did not specifically say second most powerful jedi. He said second most powerful.

The burden of proof is on you to prove he was refering to only jedi.

Not quite i was using your own logic against you. Show where i said Mace taking out droids make him greater than Dooku.




Ventress was not fighting Dooku. She did not even know he was going to attack her.




No not quite. Sidious and Yoda were pretty much equals, so that would still make Windu number two, if Sidious and Yoda were both number 1. I say you use logic. Besides at that time they were not giving too much info on Sidious, so his power was pretty much unknown.




Who else was Dooku refering to? Again you are the one that needs to use logic.




He also said Anakin, who was a sith at the time, so he was not only refering to jedi. He said if Anakin would not have been burned at mustafar, and at that time Anakin was a dark side user.

I just gave proof that says Windu was second most powerful, and people still argue, and say he was only refering to jedi, without proof. I am sure if they were talking about jedi only they would have said it to prevent fans from getting confused.

also Obi1 is at least as powerful as Ventress in the Force, and Dooku also paralyzed and Force choked him with a simple flick of the wrist mid saber fight. hes also done the same to Quinlan Vos, whose also a formidable opponent. and rendered Bulq and Ventress unconcious with a simple balst of his force lightning.

Mace has fought both Ventress and Bulq and if he was in Dookus league with the Force then he would have left them both unconcious with ease, and neither of them would have escaped him.

ok simple maths for you. If Yoda and Sidious are both exactly jointly no.1's then the next most powerful is the THIRD most powerful, not second. because he has 2 people above him.
besides the quote you gave was Mace was second after Yoda. no mention of Sidious there, therfore Sith Lords were clearly not included in that statement unless your saying Sidious is less powerful than both Yoda and Mace.

Originally posted by SIDIOUS 66

We also were not aware at the time that Dooku was SO Powerful in the Force that he could take out Obi-Wan Kenobi in his Prime with a simple flick of the wrist. And since then weve learned (in the new animated Clone Wars) that Obi-Wan himself was Awsome with the Force, easily Force Pushing Destroyer Droids around and taking out a small army of droids with the Force alone.

Besides weve all had a good idea since ROTJ about how powerful Sidious is. More so than the info we had on Mace.



Originally posted by SIDIOUS 66

yes but we didnt see it happen. Its just a hint. For all we know Dooku might have been saying that to Ventress to intimidate her about HOw Much more Powerful Dooku's Sith Master is. Also iv never doubted Sidious being considerably more powerful than Dooku.

So then maybe Sidious being the most powerful can mean position in authority.

Exactly it was too late for her to fight back. It would be kinda like if someone just came up to me unsuspectedly and socked the shit out of me, chances are i would be knocked unconscience. That does not mean he would be able to do the same if i had my guard and defenses up.

If Obi Wan was on Dantooine, and was faced with over a thousand droids and a huge siesmic take, that was stomping huge craters on the planet, what do you think would happen. I know what you are going to say "This ain't Obi Wan vs Windu", but please just answer the question.

Mace did not use the force against them the way Dooku did.

That is like saying Yoda was able to knock Sidious on his ass, but not Dooku. Yoda did not really use the force against Dooku, just like Mace didn't against Ventress.

I can also easily say Anakin was able to kill Dooku, but Yoda wasn't, so that means Anakin is better.

Ventress was an apprentice to Dooku. You rarely see an apprentice fight there master until they are ready. Just like Palpatine knocked Vader hand off at one point, but Vader did nothing back.




Honestly, i am bad at math, but not as bad as you it seems. If Sidious and Yoda are both number 1, where does two fall in? Are you saying there is no two, it goes 1 to 3? There has to be a number 2, since both Yoda and Sidious are 1.



We knew just as much about Dooku as we did Windu.

In the CW movie we see Obi Wan and Anakin both retreat from a smaller army than Windu took out. So that means the army Windu took out is superior to just Obi Wan, thus making Windu's feat a lot harder than Dooku's.



Yeah but some did not know that Sidious and Palpatine were one in the same, so they did not give out to much info on him. My cousin use to argue that Palpatine was a secret apprentice to Sidious. He was kinda clueless.





Than why all the hints? If he was trying to make Ventress fear his master, why didn't he just come out and say his master did the same thing?

Do you think Dooku was lying and making Sidious out to be more powerful than he is?






He was not no jedi.



It leaves him tied with Yoda, thus making him number one also. Duh! Also he was an unknown at the time.

No; according to you, the director's supposed statement can be attributed to Sith as well because there "wasn't enough information" on Sidious. Ignorance would make him fallible.

It's not sarcasm, dipshit. Prove the director has canon authority.

You used a double-standard based on garbage logic, I called you out on it. You lied, I called you out on it.

The outcome of a single battle is not enough to rank the participants. Anakin was better than Obi-Wan; faster, stronger, more powerful. He still lost. This is why I pointed you to Mace Windu; the fact that neither Yoda nor Sidious could beat down the other does not necessarily make them equals.

We've been over it. I will not repeat myself again.

I already said that.

Why does everything have to be spelled out for you? If Mace was "number two" out of everybody, he would be more powerful than Sidious.

Context matters.

You didn't address the point. Do so in your next post or drop it; the purposeful brushing aside of everything I say will not be tolerated.

Prove. That. He. Has. Canon. Authority. Working on Star Wars doesn't give someone authority over canon outside their in-universe material.

The "author" doesn't. The omniscient narrator in the novel does. There's a difference between statements made in actual SW literature and comments made in person.

Well, since you repel logic, I asked you to provide the context for the supposed quote. I want the whole thing.

He isn't weaker than Mace, as the RotS novelization proves. As for his power level, Gideon or LS can show you definitively just how powerful Palpatine is. I see no reason to go through this (again) when I have neither the source material nor the eloquence to fully describe Darth Sidious.

Red Nemesis is correct, when two people are tied for the number one spot the next person is ranked in third, hell videogames such as Halo 3 can and do get this right.


The author would be Kevin J. Anderson who is responsible for the Jedi Academy trilogy and the Tales of the Jedi comic series. There is a key difference between LS using Anderson's opinion vs what you are doing with cw director. The difference is that LS was using Anderson's opinion (since he basically created Exar Kun and maybe Naga Sadow as well as Marka Ragnos) to support his argument which included other feats and quotes about Sidious being the most powerful sith (over the likes of the above mention sith) in old debates. But here you haven't shown much to support the director's opinion and it makes up a very large part of your argument while LS could still win a debate without mentioning Anderson's opinion. See the difference?

So the director is wrong, and you guys are right? I am gonna go by the directors opinion, before i go by anyone on KMC, because the director worked with GL, and had conversations with him.

I can see if the director says that was his opinion, but he didn't. How do you guys know that what the director said is not canon?


It is relevant, because i am wondering why don't anyone start an arguement with him when he quotes an out of universe comment, but they start arguing with me when i do?

If you read this Lightsnake, i am not trying to bring you in this.


Did you want me to mail you the dvd, and play it for you. I verified the source more than once. Are you arguing just to argue.

When did i say that? It is a fact. You don't call people names, or insult them when they don't agree, because chances are you will get beat-up.

I never grew up in the streets. I have the best parents anyone can ask for, who would never allow me to be raised in the streets. I did however grow up around a violent area, where there is nothing to do, so they make fighting a sport. They find any reason to fight, and calling them imbeciles, retards, and morons would make an ideal reason. I am not all for it, but i do believe if someone asks for it let them have it. Do not confuse me for a saggy pants gangster, because that im not.



Does Gideon know you have an obsession with him? I mean seriously, you bring his name up quite a bit.

I am not trying to have a trash talk competition over a SW debate. It is funny you talk about pathetic. You can not even come up with your own lines, so you quote Gideon's.

Please do not reply back. All you know how to do is disrespect me.

I read it. My question was an attempt to get you to explain why it advanced your position. If you are unable to do so then I can simply chalk up another point for Faunus. I was trying to give you another chance to clarify your points, something anyone and everyone should jump at.

You obviously place a lot of pride in your ability to pay atention to the argument, so do so here:

This is just wrong. The creators of SW literature do not read it, nor do they have the continuity memorized to the same degree as their fans. Heck, even Drew Kapshi... (something) who wrote the Darth Bane novels made many mistakes (he said that a student used Vaapad.) There are plot holes in the mythos, primarily caused by ignorance of SW history. (In universe history)

In the specific case of the director, while he was making the movie he didn't need an outside source to rate Palpatine's power- he got to decide it. Did Drew K... have an outside source to rate Bane's power? No. They were in the process of creating canon- not applying it as we do here.

In this specific case of the Director commentary I think you have 3 misconceptions:
1. That it is canon- it is not. Nothing a creator says out of universe counts as canon unless that creator is GL.
2. That the director didn't know what he was talking about- he should know better than anyone because he helped to place Sidious's power in the first place. No matter how much he knew, however, it is not canon. It can be used to illustrate a point, but can not be used as the crux of an argument.
3. I was wrong. There were only two misconceptions. Here's the bottom line:
What the director said was not canon.

He probably didn't read/own/experience the massive starwars phenomenon that is Lightsnake's net worth, or Gideon's immense array of sources. They are probably better informed (in universe) than GL. (Of course, he just re-writes canon to fit his words. Like me, he has retroactive infallibility.)
Originally posted by SIDIOUS 66

Because
a). He is not George Lucas.
and
b). he was not speaking through an "in universe" source. Once he's out of the role of author/storyteller, his word means no more (and probably less) than mine.

I hope that if you mailed it you wouldn't have to play it for me. I passed Life- how not to go full retard class last year. I know that DVDs go in the toaster- I mean player.

In all seriousness, I don't care about what the director of a cartoon says outside of his show, which sux anyway.

On-line that is not an issue. This is the age of anonymous interpersonal communication my friend. Get used to it. Besides, do you care what someone named Faunus thinks about you? You clearly don't care what I think about you, or else you wouldn't have continued the ridiculous assertion that Vader > N's TK so long.

Wow you are such a hypocrite. You say i am a whiny kid for getting irritated over childish insults, when you just admitted you were still bitter about Boog. Trash talking over a computer only proves how much of a coward you are. You admitt you talk trash over acomputer, because getting beat up is not an issue.

You both act like childish brats, except you have better grammar and spelling than he does(different writing skills- same child act). Then you have the nerve to threaten to put me on ignore. Are you trying to make me loose sleep? You are an idiot. What points have you made in Dooku's favor? None. You can't even be original with humor. You try to mimic Gideon.

And yes i do believe Vader's skill in TK is greater than Nihilus's. I believe Mace and Dooku are on par with the force, or Mace is a bit more powerful. I believe taking out thousands of droids, and a huge siesmic tank that is crushing crateres on the planet, all in five minute, is more impressive than anything Dooku has done.

I am not angry about what he said to me, I was irritated by his blatant stupidity, as I am by yours. I hold people to the highest standard, my standard, at all times. That you can't live up to them does not surprise me, but I am disappointed that your best effort was such a weak showing.

I "trash talk" because nothing we say here matters. The people on here aren't even entirely real. The fundamental characteristic of our generation is the ability to communicate with everyone. The sheer magnitude dehumanizes the masses. You had the chance to earn my respect, but you have proved that you are an idiot. You will be on ignore, although I will probably read your next few responses to see if you are just faking stupidity.

First off, lets not say things we can't take back. But really- do you expect reasoned discourse when your last 3 pages worth (cumulative) of responses all contain such nuggets as "take your pill and calm yourself." and "stop being retarded" and "calm your nerves" (that one especially) and "coming from someone who keeps repeating his arguments," not to mention:

I mean, seriously. What the hell was that? Did you think that it made you look smart? Did it make you feel better to launch a sophomoric (and pathetic) attack at someone who is (clearly) more intelligent than you? What did this accomplish for you?

Don't try to convince us that you haven't ever "trash talked" just 'cause you can't handle the response you got.

If this counts as a threat then you clearly value my opinion of your intellect, which is at an all time low. If it is enough to change your behavior then the problem will be solved, but I refuse to be greeted with ignorance guarded by stupidity that has outlived its humorous potential. You are no longer even worth laughing at. I'm done.

Dooku was better educated and more skillful in its use. So again, you're wrong.

In this whole whine fest you have made exactly two (2) assertions. Neither is supported by facts, although you did use quotes to explain your reasoning for the second. Congrats on a 100% fail average.

Do you not see how hypocritacle you sound? First you say what is said here shouldn't matter, but then you admitt what people say on here irritate you. If what people say on here does not matter it shouldn't irritate you.

So why all the irritation?


Now i am definately going to loose sleep.



He asked for the insults, by insulting me first. I am all for a civilized debate, but if you call me out of my name, then expect the same from me.

He has more skill at sarcasm ill admitt.

Do you consider yourself intelligent by making out retarded "scientific explanations" which were flawed. Lol lifting a cardboard box is harder than crushing a tin can.

I don't trash talk over characters who don't exist, unless people start to trash talk me. That i honestly can say.

I was being sarcastic. I don't count it as a threat at all. However, you must, or else you wouldn't keep repeating it, like i am suppose to feel threatened by it.

So you basically came to this thread to seek me out, and try to correct me. Wow... I feel cyber-stalked.

Except you didn't allow him to explain your point. You repeatedly use his lines and humor.

That you still have not proved.

You are making a claim without backing it up.

You just made an assertion regarding Dooku being more skillful than Windu, without any proof. Wow your hypocracy amazes me.

I can tell by the many comments you make you think you are great. KMC is probably the only place you get a lot of attention to the point that you consider yourself great.

Wow Gideon is so great he gets to decide who is important on KMC forums.

You take these SW forums so seriously, that it probably has a major impact on your pathetic life. Seriously, any one who talks about how great they are on a forum site needs help.

I will admitt i am a Sidious fan.... a big fan. You on the other hand try to show that you are not so much of a fan, when really you are, even to the point to where you think of yourself as a Palpatine to the KMC.

Otherwise if you rank the 5 most powerful jedis then you will stop at no.4 not no.5, because you would have given 2 people the no.1 spot and still given the no.2 spot to someone esle. Unless you have 6 jedis in the top 5 jedi list which again makes no sense. For the top 5 ranking jedis to stop at no.4 or to have 6 jedis in it makes no sense at all.

Also it doesnt matter whose more powerful between Yoda and Sidious. If we all agree that they are BOTH more powerful than Mace then that would automatically make Mace no more than the THIRD most powerful, because weve all agreed that there are at least 2 people more powerful than him.
If Sidious and Yoda are just as good or not, this has no effect on Mace or his ranking whatsoever, because theres still at least 2 people more powerful than him.

I hope iv taught you some simple maths now. Seems like the education system really is failing kids nowadays.

None of this matters because "the director" never said Sidous is more powerful than Mace or Vice Versa. he didnt even mention Sidious. He just said Mace was no. 2 to Yoda, which is therefore clearly in reference to The Jedi and at That Time during the CW. and dnt give us that crap that "The Director" had no ides how Powerful Sidious was. Because If he didnt then he cant be used as a cannon source. and if he just Assumed Mace is more powerful than Sidious then that would have been a pretty Daft Assumption, so again would not make him a good authority.

Also heres a question for you.. Do you believe that "the director" of the CW mini is more of a cannon source than Dave Filoni the director of the new animated series?? because Dave Filoni was asked about the CW mini, and he said he liked it with it's "Over the top and exaggerated use of the Force.."
More proof that the mini CW was over the top and exaggerated in its diplays of the Force was Yoda fighting in the first episode of the new animated series. He took on an drois armada by sneaking around and taking on a few small army of droids at a time.. He therfore was not capable of replicaiton Mace's feat in the Clone Wars Mini, of taking on a Whole Droid Armada and a Seismic Tank HEAD ON!

Now before people scream at me, im not saying the CW mini was not cannon. The story was completely cannon. Just the use of the Force was exaggerated, according to Dave Filoni. In fact even GL himself says the the mini was his "ideal vision," and therfore not the vision of Jedis hes portrayed in the movies which is the Ultimate Source of cannonicity.




Anyway as for Anakin vs. Starkiller. Starkiller most likely wins using the Force. However Anakin does have a chance if he gets all over him with his Saber like he did to Dooku, who was also Anakins clear superior with the Force.

When did Lucas say this. I thought Lucas said the first CW is how the jedi would be at full extent. Now your arguement is: Since Yoda did not take out the army the way Windu did, it makes what Windu did non-canon. Sorry it don't work that way. Yoda was probably more worried about his comrads safety than he was showing off his force powers.

occultdestroyer
Starkiller still wins.

He defeated Darth Vader and proceeded to fight Darth Sidious right after the match. Meaning he was NOT in 100% condition when he fought and defeated Sidious.

If Lord Kota did not stop him, he would've finally killed Sidious. But for the purpose of the plot, Sidious had to survive.

The lightning strike from Sidious finally killed him when he powered it up with his own anger against Sidious.

BTW Starkiller probably has the strongest force from any Jedi/Sith Lord (Before you start bashing me that Yoda is the strongest Force user... Of course he is! The dude lived longer than 800+ years!!!). Darth Vader thought the force he felt from Starkiller came from Kento's master. Kento said that Vader already killed his master, so that strong force presence emanated from Starkiller.

EDIT:
Starkiller sensed Kota with his 1st Jedi meditation. After being with the Dark Side for so long, that is one feat no one could replicate.

You have a couple of misconceptions it seems.

- Starkiller did not defeat Sidious, and he wasn't able to.

- Starkiller was not the strongest force user ever, neither was Yoda, although he was a lot stronger than Starkiller.

Wrong.
Starkiller defeated Sidious.
When he was to deliver the final blow, Kota told him to stop and leave Sidious alone for he was already defeated. Sidious used his lightning on Kota, and Starkiller blocked it with his hands. Sidious finally overpowered his Force and killed him when he unleashed his anger to Sidious, thus making Sidious stronger.

I am not sure if Starkiller is the strongest force user. Thus the word 'probably'.
May I ask, who is the strongest force user, if not Yoda??

Vorpal Ruin
How come when Starkiller put everything he had into destroying Palpatine, killing himself in the process, the Emporer was unharmed?

Oh, and Luke Skywalker is eventually the strongest force user.

The official databank makes it clear: Starkiller "was ultimately no match for the power of Darth Sidious." Sidious > Starkiller.

Kuke Skywalker.. from store wars xD

and just a random comment.. Yoda only lost to sids because he was standing further out of the pod.. not even within the railing so obviously he would be blasted farther apart because of that and his light weight. so i would say yoda had a chance to beat palpy. watch the vid some other person posted. notice where yoda stands at 3:23.

as a side note.. I don't get why sids didn't get hit by the pod yoda threw at him. It always looked to me as if it went through sids not beside or above..

No one said that Yoda didn't have a chance to defeat Palpatine. Hell, he had at least a 50/50 opportunity prior to losing his lightsaber.

According to the novel, Yoda admitts he didn't have it in him to defeat Sidious.

Gideon
Don't take that literally. It wasn't an admission on Yoda's part that he lacked the Force mastery or lightsaber aptitude to kill Sidious.

Faunus
Yoda was discussing the new Sith Order itself as an ideal, not Sidious as a combatant.

Gideon
Yoda lost because he fell right into Sidious's hands. Again. And again. And again. And again. And again. And then some more. And then once after that.

As Stover puts it, by fighting at all, the Jedi lost.

No he didn't, but after several minutes of fighting, Yoda realized that fighting was getting no where, and that neither of them held a great advantage over the other. They were pretty much evenly matched. After Yoda realized he was unable to out match Sidious with a saber and the force, continuing the fight would not make a difference.

"He Knew, at that instant, that this insight held hope of the galaxy. But if he fell here, that hope would die with him."

This was stated near the end of the fight. Now notice how right before the fight even started, Yoda seemed to have more confidence. Towards the end of the fight Yoda's thoughts were: "He just didn't have it", and the thought i quoted above. Do you think that if Yoda had faith he could kill Sidious, he would be making comments like this.

That's bullshit revisionist history. That Yoda went into the fight with more confidence than what he ended up with isn't an indicator that he lacked the power to beat Sidious; it meant that it just was going to be more difficult than he imagined it would be.

As far as confidence goes, I seem to recall a certain Sith Lord cackling and laughing at his "little green friend" yet his one way flight over the desk prompted him to haul ass out of his office.

Before you make this into a long drawn out arguement, please read carefully what i wrote. When exactly did i say Yoda lacked capability? By Yoda's own admission he did not have it in him to defeat Sidious, and which he didn't. Yoda tried to kill Sidious and failed, but nor was Sidious able to kill Yoda. Here is a quote from the Revenge of the Sith Visual Dictionary:

"In his contest with Sidious, Yoda realizes he is overmatched and deserts the fight, perhaps because his spirit has been broken by so many jedi deaths".



What exactly does this have to do with what i said?

Ya know Gideon, when you quote the idiot you make it a lot harder to ignore it. When you circumvent the Ignore function you undermine all that makes KMC great. (Me.)


I don't count Faunus's greatness because he sucks. And he's a fatty.
