^Exactly, the guy is already a proved liar and hypocrite, he goes on about how the movie should be taken completetly literally to a T then starts using EU sources to explain why Mace should be better then Obi Wan.
Mace states in the ROTS novel that he hadn't truley perfected the form till Shatterpoint
"There was a time when Mace Windu had feared the power of the dark; there was a time when he had feared the darkness in himself, But the Clone Wars had given him a gift of understanding. on a world called Haruun Kal, he had faced his darkenss and learned that the power of the darkness is not to be feared."
Qui Gon is not on the level of TMP Mace Windu, the TMP novel makes it clear that after there short duel on Tatooine that Qui Gonn was out of breath gasping for air and Maul wasn't even really trying. Then when Maul does try he hacks Qui Gonn in half.
Lucas's words on HIS characters > your shitty opinion. Get that through your head.
And since you seem to be on this Obi Wan > Sidious in a straight duel, that must also mean Obi Wan > Yoda since you know Yoda had trouble dealing with Sidious in a straight duel, but you apparently think Obi Wan would "decimate" him.
whereas Lucas is speaking in respect to overall combat prowess, and more than likely specifically force battles.
And you know this how? But its nice to know KMC forum user Nebaris speaks for George Lucas Since when did Lucas specify what exactly he was speaking of? He says flat out "You have to be Mace or Yoda to compete with Sidious." on any level because Mace duels him straight with no force powers till the end.
But according to your shitty logic of "OMG 60 year old acters fightin shuldz be takan litralllys!" Obi Wan Kenobi is better then Mace, Yoda and Sidious in lightsaber dueling simply because his actor isn't an old man who didn't go through months of practice for his fight scenes." Also accroding to your logic, Boba's dead forever and there is sound in space in the Star Wars universe, Great Job!
