Darth Vader vs. Darth Maul

but if you destroy the Sith you only have the "white" left

I would still like to think that the most powerful jedi ( or sith ) ever should also be the best fighter of all the jedi ( or sith ) as well.

By the way did Lucas really say that the phrase " bringing balance to the force " refers to the act of killing the sith ?

And yeah, I agree, it's to early to say for certain that Vader was PERSONALLY responsible of murdering the jedi that remain for Ep.3 ( except Yoda and Obi Wan ) - but I think that that's what will be shown in Ep.3 - in order to fully portray the awesome potential and strength of Vader / Anakin - you know something like Vader killing in combat, jedi like Mace Windu for one amongst others. We've gotta see Vader in his prime kicking ass - like we saw Maul.

I didn't knew he said that about balance

Yes, he did. It is the Sith eho seek to unbalance the Force by making the Dark Side overwhelmingly dominant. That is their true evil.

Only the Sith's destruction can restore the Balance.

when? where? that is more important

That explanation of " bringing balance " makes what the significance of Anakin being the chosen one is, much more clearier.

Indeed. GL pften talked to Jake Lloyd about thgis, so he did not feel bad about playing a person who would become such a villain- because he later destroys the Emperor and so brings balance.

The bad guy who becomes the good guy....ah....redemption.....
"yeah"
*cheer on the good guys*

score one for balance.

The good guy becomes the bad guy becomes the good guy again.
That's a lot like real life - I've seen that happen.

Really????

I'm not sure I want to have any real life experiences with that sort of thing.

It happens all the time - lot of people start out nice when they're young, and when the hit real life, they kind of change over the years, and pretty soon, they aren't pure the way they were when they were young. To a certain extent, I think that happens to all of us.
That's one of the reasons i like star wars : it captures in a very simple way, some very subtle aspects of real life - a lot of guys start out talented and unspoilt ( like anakin ) - you see them 20 years later, it's like they're different people - and you can hardly believe that this is the same guy who was so cool 20 years back.
Well now, he's 45 and changed -
I'm 27 so I haven't had totally first hand experience of this happen in front of my eyes. But I have seen such people in my life.

Going through life can sort of have that effect on you if you don't tackle it's challenges in the right way. That's true life - and StarWars has captured that pretty well.

Somebody famous once said that Drama ought to hold a mirror up to life.

Well, that's the case with starwars allright !

Vader uses the force way more, in ep 1 Maul used the force twice because he couldn't be arsed to open a door and to get Obi-Wan of his face.

Maul's fighting seemed to be fiercer, but then again, his prime was in an age when the sith and jedi were still at peak performance....He might have used the force more had he lived longer.

sorry, but my only statement is:
Vader IS a legend.
Darth Maul is nothing in comparism.

I think Darth Maul would win, because he was younger.

ow, here's that thread!

"He is the Chosen One, you must see it" 😄

😄 😉

So what if he is the bloody Chosen One? Still loses more than he wins in SW, doesn't he?
