The Ultimate Weapon

stabbing a door... on the TF-ship

Rather literal there... I suspect Rex means the Sith will backstab the Geonosians.

GL very specifically had Obi-Wan mention Yoda at the very start of TPM as having aught him before to maintain continuity with ESB.

the Sith will always backstab people who work for them... didn't they allmost destroy each other??? and only Palpy was standing...watching.. waiting

and that's EU

sorry

accepted... for the time being...

The Sith backstabbing each other? NOT EU. A George Lucas quote.

the destroyed eachother part was EU in the '80, I'm not sure 'bout the novel of TPM

The destroying each other part is also from the same GL quote and is not EU, even though any plot details from those 80's stories are.

It is canon that the Sith were once more prolific, but that they continually betrayed each other and in the end could only survive by there only being two left.

k

What if those two backstab each other?

And Sith Lords still backstab each other in OT. Vader throughs Palpy into the shaft. 😄

Not acting in his capacity as a Sith Lord at that point, of course. But he still wold have done anyway.

I don't think anybody, Jedi or Sith, is going to backstab the Sidious without him knowing its coming.

But Vader does it nonetheless. Yes, Vader probably would have done it anyway, especially because wanted "to be the most powerful Jedi ever!"

indeedy, if Sidious saw everything (future-wise) then Vader couldn't kill him

"always in motion the future is"

"Everything is going as I have forseen"

"You will take your fathers place besides me"

But remember in the novel, Luke had a third thought....kill them both.

- And then another thought emerged, slowly compulsive as an ardent lover; he could destroy the Emporer, too. Destroy them both, and rule the galaxy. Avenge and conquer.

It was a profoud moment for Luke. Dizzying. Yet he did not swoon. Nor did he recoil.

He took one step forward.

For the first time, the thought entered Vader's consciousness that his son might best him. He was astounded by the strength Luke had acquired since their last duel, in the Cloud City -

Well you all know the rest...and I know its not canon, but just imagine !!!

the novel IS canon, just not as big as the movies
