I've been thinking about this. Would he Join Dooku or saber him down (or at least try)? Would Anakin turn diferent from what we see in ROTS being trained all that time by Qui-Gon instead of Ben? For sure, imo, mace would have gone to palpatine along with Qui-Gon. Could he be one of the Jedi purge survivors (As to discuss his potential)? About this last we know that ben only survived, imo, by sheer luck. Yoda due to his skills. I know that alot of forumers around don't like to discuss the if possibilities but, I do so, those that don't just keep away.
i think Qui-Gon would be more fitted to train Anakin then Obi-wan was.
even though obi was a far more powerful jedi then qui ever was.
I still think qui gon would have been able to prevent anakins turn to the darkside. just because his outlook on the force and life was far different then obi's was.
Did you see Revenge of The Sith? You should check it out. It's pretty good. plus, there's some stuff about Qui-Gon in there that it sounds like you haven't seen yet. I highly recommend watching it.
OK obi was more in-tune with the force and was more advanced in swordsmen ship, and was extremely wise, but not as wise as qui-gon. and no matter who trained anakin, it was inevitable he would turn to the dark side.

No, Aduruth; Qui-Gon was definitely more in-tune with the Force than his apprentice, unless you also forgot that last piece there. Obi-Wan was powerful and wise and a skilled swordsman, but Qui-Gon outdid him with the first two.
Anakin would probably have been more open to telling QGJ about stuff like Padme and his mother simply because QG also swayed from the path of the "perfect jedi".
Quigon told the Council in TPM that Obi-wan is "headstrong and has much to learn about the living Force". Obi was fresh out of padawanhood and not ready to train an apprentice who was too old anyways. The fact that Qui-Gon was a rebel wouldv'e suited Anakin way better than by-the-book Obi.
I think that if Qui-Gon Jinn had not died, Anakin would not have turned to the dark side and the hideously deformed Palpatine wouldnt have been able to kill all the Jedi. I think Qui-Gon treated Anakin more like a father than obi wan ever did, because he is a lot more patient. I thik that Anakin should have figured out though that Qui-Gon was dead because of Palpatine and instead of joining him should have avenged Qui Gon who he owed his freedom to.

There basically would have been no story. QGJ's death was dramatically essential to set Anakin and Obi-Wan on their disastrous path.
I am not sure about QGJ being a poor sowrdsman though. He looked damn good to me, and Nick Gillard talks about the cut bit from the Tatooine fight where QGJ gets the better of Maul- he designed the two as about equal.

I agree with all. Qui-Gon would be the better master, Anakin would be more open with him. The problem with Obi-Wan is he's too soft with Anakin. If Anakin told him about the Tuskins he slaughtered, Obi would prolly just put him in a corner for 2 minutes. If Anakin told Qui-Gon about the Tuskins, Qui-Gon would beat the hell outta him. All Anakin needed was harsh discipline, and a capable Master. Obi-Wan was neither.
