Ok let me rephrase. I don't believe you. Doesnt get any simpler than that. You are not right 100% of the time. And this just happens to be one of the times you're wrong. And thats what I think. And Im not changing my opinion until I see something that proves my quote wrong (which you took out of context I might add) So until then I'll being seeing you.

an article from a magazine i have never heard of that was printed in 99..yeah that will be right there at the local bookseller or libary for me to read this....interview
Unfortunate, but unavoidable. I've been asked to give the source- that's the source
(shrugs)
JP's own quote was form the same interview, and helped prove me right.

Feel free to not believe me- despite having quoted from the same interview.
But that is what he said. It is there in print. So more fool you. Sorry. But there you go. GL says you are wrong, and I think no rational person really thinks I am making quotes up. It's there, and he said it.
The entire article and the link, which states after Anakin turns the blance is destroyed. But also CLEARLY stats the blance SHIFTS when it starts to erode. This is all semantics. Arguing with you is like arguing with a child who gets mad when you take their toy.

Recently I called up my good friend George Lucas and arranged to have an interview. It took a little convincing since the last time I interviewed him...there was a small groin incident, but I got the interview!
Rasta: So George, I'm sure you've heard what some people are saying about Episode 1. Now anyone like
myself would gladly give you head just to thank you for that wonderful picture, but some say quote "it
sucked". What do you have to say about that?"
George: Is this on the record or not?
Rasta: Oh definately off the record. (Hee hee hee.)
George: They will all die! When I reveal myself to be the true omnipotent power in this galaxy I shall crush all
living beings under my heel who don't do my bidding!
Rasta: I see we're cut from the same fabric. Now, on the record. In Episode 1 Qui-Gon Jinn said Anakin would
bring balance to The Force. What does that mean?
George: Let me explain briefly. If good and evil are mixed things become blurred - there is nothing between good
and evil, everything is grey. In each of us we have balance these emotions, and in the Star Wars
saga the most important point is balance, balance between everything. It is dangerous to lose this. In The
Phantom Menace one of the Jedi Council already knows the balance of The Force is starting to slip, and
will slip further. It is obvious to this person that The Sith are going to destroy this balance. On the other
hand a prediction which is referred to states someone will replace the balance in the future. At the right
time a balance may again be created, but presently it is being eroded by dark forces. All of this shall be
explained in Episode 2, so I can't say any more!
Rasta: Before I get to my next question I just have to say this. I want to have sex with you. Now, on to the next
question. Some beleive that Luke, not Anakin is the chosen one. Does that mean Qui-Gon is a stupid
pecker?
George: I think it is obvious that he was wrong in Episode 1 and made a dangerous decision, but ultimately this
decision may be correct. The Phantom Menace refers to the force of the dark side of the Universe.
Anakin will be taken over by dark forces which in turn destroy the balance of the Galaxy, but the
individual who kills the Emperor is Darth Vader - also Anakin. The tale meanders and both the prediction,
and Qui-Gon is correct - Anakin is the chosen one, and he did bring peace at last with his own sacrfice.
Luke couldn't kill the Emperor himself, but he could make Anakin reflect on his life and kill the Emperor.
Rasta: I just thought you'd like to know. I've just made the decision to have "Darth Maul" tattooed, up my ass...
Well after that I kinda went off into my own world and George eventually called in some "guards" and had them beat the crap out of me. It seems he didn't react to well to me trying to rimjob him. Anyway I'll try and get some more info for you all next time.

And how did I take your quote out of context, other than by pointing out that GL specifies, in that quote, that
"The Sith are going to destroy this balance"
As in, they have not done it yet?
It doesn't actually get any simpler than that. There must be some astounding self-imposed logic block in your reasoning here. Every rational person reading that can clearly see that meaning.
That is the Cut magazine interview, JP, just with some made-up guy claiming the credit. It is not semantics at all. GL unequivocably, and clearly, states that it has not happened yet. That cannot be argued. Your continued accusations of immaturity are of no value. The point is, he simply says it has not happened yet, and that it does not happen until after Anakin turns. That he says the process of movingntowards that has started doesn't mean a thing- the event itself, where the Force is out of balanace, has not yet been done.
