I just rewatched RotS and I found a huge plot hole - Obi-Wan reviews the security logs in the Jedi Temple, and rather quickly discovers Vader being tamed by Sidious. Erm... wtf... How did no one else think to just check the spy-cam they had in his office while they sent Jedi to kill him.

They probably could have all been prepared instead of dying like cattle.

Wow that is plot hole. If that scene did take place in Sidious' office then I guess the jedi were actually guilty of treason.

Well, if they were spying on him, having Anakin report back is redundant. All they had to do was watch his office, have him confess his Sith-dom to Anakin, and arrive with dudes. If those dudes die, they can see Anakin interceding, they can send moar dudes, and eventually, Sidious dies. Hell, they could have alerted Yoda and he may have been able to show up well before Mace Windu was forced to go over and crash Sidious' party.

Yoda was offplanet.

well there was no audio. so i mean unless he whips out his lightsaber or his dick there isnt really any incriminating evidence from just the audio.

Yoda was offplanet.

Considering interstellar travel takes place in very little time, they could have stalled and waited for Yoda. Had they done so, the Republic would have stood and the Sith would have been destroyed.

There IS audio. Obi-Wan clearly hears Anakin being christened Vader, and Yoda later references the name Vader to the Emperor whom he calls Sidious.

Not really, for all you know it takes days and maybe weeks to travel from Coruscant to the outer rim, even more to the unknown regions.

You all are right:

They could send Anakin to Palpatine, and then Anakin tells them, just like before.

They call for Yoda and also warn all of the jedi around the galaxy, and so Yoda and several other jedi head to get Palpatine

They simply wait and wait until Yoda and the others arrive and THEN arrest Palpatine.

The end

It's all just plain PIS.

which is why all you can expect to be is entertained by the powers that be.

Anakin Skywalker goes to Mustafar in the Outer Rim and slaughters the Separatist leaders in the same standard day that he attacks the Jedi Temple.

Yes, it might take hours, but hours can be afforded if they know what's going on. Sidious obviously didn't know he was being recorded in his own office.

I love the iron fist of this place. It didn't use to be this ridiculous. Oh well, I guess some people feel more important when abusing power.

This one's for you, Rex. Auf Wiedersehen.

Where does it state that it was the same day? I know it takes a few days to Korriban from the core, hell it takes what, half a day from coruscant to corellia I believe.

😆
😂

Well in Clone Wars: Wild Space it takes Obi Wan and Bail what is assumed to be several/a few days to get into Wild Space/the unknown regions from Coruscant...

What the **** do you know about space travel, boy?

It's not about actual space travel. It's about how Lucas wants to portray space travel.

Oh well, I guess someone didn't read the sock's join date, which was June 2009, as opposed to November 2001. Oops! However, I will not forget this public display of sheer ill will. Ridiculous. Just ****ing ridiculous.

I don't think its about actual abuse, i think its more like taking action against people who break certain rules but not people who break different rules. For instance, you are banned for disrespecting a mod. (no disrespect meant, however resorting to using mod tools to silence people who dislike you gives you an unfair advantage over people who disagree with you)

Inconsistency seems to be the problem here. Rex has a right to ban people who "disrespect" him, but he won't take a similar authoritarian action and close threads who break a different rule:


Matches between non-SW characters will be closed. Both characters must be from Star Wars.

I mean no disrespect towards rex with this message, note that I have said multiple times that he has a right to ban people who disrespect him.

Spoiler:
to cover my ass

That picture is so appropriate. And by appropriate I mean awesome.
