Will we find out why Qui-Gon Didn't Disappear?

And if it had ANYTHING to do with experience, Qui-Gon would've most certainly been able to do it. If memory serves me right, he was even asked to be on the Jedi Council once or twice...

GL states on the episode II DVD that no existence beyond death has been previously known by the Jedi.

well, if GL says so, then i guess we have to go with that. he is the man. we will see next year. i am still betting that at least one jedi will do it in part 3, probably mace windu. if you guys disagree with me, fine. think about it like this. GL is being very secretive about what will happen and/or revealed in part 3. this "secret" could be revealed. i said "could" not "will".

Mace Windu may, though that seems unlikely as there is no direct useful reason for him to do so, but the point is that anyone doing it in episode III would be doing it BECAUSE of that plot reason! QGJ is the link.

hmmm, I know someone commented if a jedi will disappear or not... but I forgot the outcome, hang on I'll check

can't find it, sorry

I'll try again

no u idiots. it's bcuz ob1 and yoda bcame 1 with the force and qui-gon just died. obi1 had a clean record, yoda trained practically all the jedi and qui-gon kept defying the council

before calling everyone an idiot you should have thought first before posting this ulitimate piece of crap

if that was even remotely true, it would have been a common trick, it would have happened in the past already
and it is clear it is something NEW cause Vader doesn't know it in ANH, he goes to double check if OB1 died or not

so, ... next time, don't call people names and be sure that you post something based on common sense

I really hope Lucas will clear this up for us in Episode 3 it is strange that Vader does not know what happened to Obi Wan but in ROTJ when he dies Anakin appears as a ghost next to Yoda and Obi Wan.....oh and Gecko bird...your taxi is here

Yes, that Anakin could do it despite not really knowing what it is reinforces the idea that this plot point revolves around Anakin.

Just wondering why everyone is so sure Vader didnt know about this ability? It seems to me that he knew of it because he himself used it. maybe i missed something though ... let me know

Maybe he just forgot.

As he dies in front of Luke he suddenly remembers "Oh man, I SO forgot about this neato trick, oh wow now I can give it a try - here I come - wheeee!" *dies*

so, if it's a common trick, that means Vader who was once a knight would have known how to do it and wouldn't be surprised

Remember Anakin's line in Ep2 about learning how to stop people from dying? Well maybe this life after death as a Jedi Spirit has something to do with it? Just an idea... I know Anakin was having a moment but for some reason I think Lucas really wanted us to remember Anakin saying that.

Far from impossible indeed- but that makes it look somewhat conscious from Anakin, which would be odd.

Errr... I repeat what I said.

i think it was just annie feeling the power of the dark side, which he fell briefly over to while slaughtering the tuskens.

Hang on a mo...

When Anakin kills the Tuskans, Yoda hears Qui Gon Shout "Anakin - NO!" does that mean that he was a ghost but just didn't dissapear?

Was that Qui Gon or OB1 who shouted? And how would that bridge the disappearance mystery?
