I actually agree with mikester. Go to your library and rent the making of revenge of the sith special edition. It tells you duologue that was cut, rearranged, or edited. It also shows you that that was one of maces alternate deaths. I don't remember most of them because they were identical to sids electrocuting him, but this alternate was here. They simply put it in the game, like when anakin and obi-wan were in the fuel leak area. Anakin has shown he's become a great duelist to become a great duelist-by not only killing Count Dooku- but also by choking a padawan, and fighting the lightsaber instructor at the same time. That's skill and strength.
Originally posted by Count KentThat's some impressive information you have about Mace Windu.. How did you know that Mace was better than Yoda during the times of the PT?
Lots of people believe that. It's not that rediculous a belief. I however know that the only people who ever surpassed Mace Windu in the movies were Sidious as of DE, Yoda in his day years before the movies, Darth Vader about ten years after ROTS and Luke Skywalker.
Buargh...
a) Read Shatterpoint
b) Then come again and tell me that Anakin would beat Mace.
This is simply stupid. Lucas himself said that the only people that could defeat Sidious are Mace, Yoda and Anakin at full potential which he never reached. He admits that he can't defeat Sidious in ROTS putting him below Mace and Yoda anyways. Then you have Asajj Ventress. While Anakin and Obi-Wan both had nice problems with her, Mace almost easily defeated her without any problems.
And please...in a sheer saber match Mace is the duelling prodigy, using his own combat style stated to be the "most deadly form of lightsaber combat" and having almost 30 years of training advantage over Anakin. In terms of force powers we've seen that Anakin was stalemating with Obi-Wan when they tried to force push each other on Mustafar. And in terms of force control and potential Obi-Wan was several levels below Mace.
So how is Anakin going to defeat Windu ? Because he defeated Dooku ? Anakin > Dooku, Mace = Dooku, so Anakin > Mace. Great reasoning...

I suck at interpreting things, but this is what he said...
"You have to be either Mace or Yoda to compete with the Emperor" Lucas says. "If Anakin hadn't gotten all beat-up, he could've beat the Emperor"
I was under the impression that he meant pre suit Vader > the Emperor, because he used "could've" instead of "would've".
