some would argue that....

Windu's very much alive!

He fell a couple of miles down, ended up in Coruscant's RedLight-district, only to see himself being exciled to Oola's Titty-Twister.
During the Jedi-Purge/DarkTimes he took the identity of an exotic stripper called "Sweet Chocolat Brown".....
At the near end of the Galactic Civil War he resigned from this profession after his mistress accidently got eaten by a Rancor on Tatooine.

It is rumored Windu is still searching his one true love>>>a gold plated lightsabre, lost in the depths where his tragedy all started!

[B]My mistake, I should have written second only to the movies. As CW is a visual rather than printed medium, it is a higher level of canon than a novelization, because the audience is being shown what is happening, what the characters can do etc, where in a novel, the reader has to use their imagination to 'fill in the details'.

Errmm, no. The CW cartoon and any EU novels are held at the same level of Canon. Sorry. As a matter of fact the novelizations are more descriptive then any of the movies or TV shows are, as they give an EXACT account of what happens as well as supplying a narrative to go along with it, and more often then not the characters thoughts as well. But never the less Books are at the same level of canon as the CW cartoons are.

It can't be half canon. Either everything that occurs is canon (which you've agreed the events are) or none of it is. The acts are what 'make' the events, so it is all intertwined.

Actually no, if something in one source goes against what the majority of other sources say a character can do etc. then you take the majority over the one source. Thats how canon works.

AS I said above, the feats and acts are what make the events possible. Who said that Mace can't punch through human flesh? Just because he did not do so with Palpatine, does not mean that he could not do so. Infact, a line from theTPM Visual dictionary may explain the phenomenon:

If he could punch through flesh then he would have killed Kar Vastor immediately, with one blow. He cant, so he didn't. As a matter of fact he got his ass beat down by Kar Vastor. IF he was indeed capable of the feats he displays in the CW's cartoon he would be capable of punching through durasteel, if he can punch through durasteel then he would EASILY be able to punch through flesh. AND if he could do that he would be as physically strong, or more physically strong then Mechanical Vader, or Grievous. Which is BS. Mace cannot punch through durasteel with his bare hands, not only is it ridiculous, but ALL other sources trump the fact that he can. So he cant.

To add, if Mace could do the kinds of things he can do in the CW cartoon then he should have been able to wipe out almost ALL the drioids in the Geonosis arena SINGLEHANDEDLY, but he didn't. Why? Because he cant.

I think that he is dead but COULD be alive. Mace wasn't seen hitting the floor or dead so noone knows what happened to him.

As for the bit about mace using the force to hurl himself, he may have done so but Palp' lifts him up before he is thrown out of the window which show how powerful the lightning is, though it does seem likely to escape death that he jumps (maybe using the force to sense for a speeder going past, or he just jumped) he may have been thrown out of the window by the power of the lightning.

its stupid for Kit and the other jedi to survive because Palp' would have ordered Anakin to kill them, a seriously injured jedi cant run far in a few minutes.

As for the bit about mace falling onto a speeder, this is the most likely and only way for him to survive so IF he survived then he would have fallen onto a speeder, went into hidding on a planet, dodged years of the Empire proberly searching the planet hes on, ceate a new 'saber, mechanical hand.

The bit about Mace being hit a few inches away from Palp' and seriouslly injuring him is true but Luke was hit by him from about the same distance and for long and it was years later so Palp would be more powerful!

Finally, has anyone ever heard of a plot twist. saying that books say mace is dead is like sayin "Why didn't they say Anakin was going to be evil in TPM?" or "why didn't they say that palpatine was darth sideous in the first book?". Surprize, surprize, ITS A PLOT TWIST!!!!

Doubt his death all you will but I do hope they never think of making him return, even if he "survived". Now Boba's supposed death is half probably, but Mace surviving in such a dramatic event? It kills the significance of that moment, even if RotS was a pretty poor film for drama.

good point, he should stay dead, if they do bring him back then it should be the remains of him of on holocrons.

Yes, he'll probably be the subject of a story like that. Maybe that shows they really don't have alot of material for stories, but I guess some people must like the guy, even if I dont.

mace is a badass, why do you think sam played him!

he should come back as a holocron or ghost if they make any new films or stories.

no soures say he didn't make a holocron and did you see him dead or hitting the floor, it leaves it open for a follow-on...game over, PAL!!!!

Windu's death is canonical.

Windu's death is canonical. Windu's death is a fact. Lucas has said so, Jackson has said so, Windu's screams of agony as he fell to his death also said so.

when did samuel say 'i die', i thought he said he wanted to go OUT in some kick-ass way, meaning out of the window. when did lucaas say he was DEAD? so if anyone screams whilst falling then thier dead are they? i didn't think so!

have you ever heard of a plot twist.

I'm pretty sure when he said "take me OUT!" it was gangsta' talk for get killed. This IS Sam Jackson were talking about here.
