Now now, hate leads to suffering.
Yeah Palpatine's so weak and unprepared that he created the Galactic Empire before being FOUND by the Jedi as the Sith lord.
Palpatine knows what is going on and what will happen. He can sense the future, as Yoda is asked to and Anakin can more on instinct. Palpatine has telepathy and influences others subconsciously, dreams and fear, etc.
How is Anakin going to culminate his turn to the dark side other than striking Windu? There aren't many better ways.

He got the first two by surprise. Kit Fisto was able to counter, but if you watch closely, he had little room to work with. Had they been in an open area, Kit would have lasted a bit longer.
That is such a lame assesment for defending bad direction and bad blocking. They came in with drawn lightsabres to arrest a SITH!!!!! If they can't 'mind their surroundings' they suck as Jedi.
Originally posted by queeqwell, if you were there, would you expect Sidious to jump straight at you attacking? I would expect him to fight, yes, but what he did caught them totally off guard, even Mace.
But any Jedi Master would know what to do expecting heavy opposition, even in a little space like that. These aren't grade schoolers. Look at OB1 and Anakin at the end of ROTS, they fight each other on two square feet of lava droid.
how would you have filmed it? this should be fun.
BS. You're going to arrest the first Sith in a 1000 years, one you can't even detect with your Jedi senses. You'd better be prepared for something..
And how to film it? You'd be surprised. For one Sidious would have some major movements, he should definately look surperior. Now everything goes slow and the other Jedi just stand and watch until it's their turn to be shish kebabed. No one defends each other, they just stand there. Old Palpy moves around in the small crowded space like he's in a stadium, why can't the tree uberslow Jedi do that?
Besides, it's a movie. The director chooses a small space, he better makes it work.
