Kotorfan, if you're writing a letter is it...a letter of commendation, a letter expressing your distaste for their food, a letter stating your dissatisfaction with the management, a letter to inform the establishment that you had cockroaches in your meal so you called the feds, or a letter to ask if you can deep fry the food there (if that's the case, you'll probably need a helluva' lot more than that)?
ok i'm writing a letter to "my chinese friend describing the situation when my classmate and I had a meal at a chinese restaurant. don't forget to use the following words:
湯　點菜　飯　盤　碗　肉　素　上菜　
the words are pretty easy, its like I order a PLATE of stuff and a BOWL of SOUP and ate RICE. thats like half the words already. It doesn't have to be too long, just a simple letter. and I have a mental block. lol
ok now its actually readable. be4 it was so small..

Alright. 😆 As long as we're in this pretend world, can you admit that you have a sexual attraction to Hayden Christensen?I don't think we need to pretend when saying that this screen shot gives everyone that thrilling feeling up their leg.

I'll get to the rest later Advent, but the cut-away I was talking about is at 1:33.
The problem is, Obi-Wan tries to cleave Anakin down the middle at 1:33, meaning he clearly didn't hold any regard for his life then or at any point after. The scene where Kenobi is hesitating to fight (not to score a killing a blow) happens immediately before 1:08 following the novel's timeline, but at 1:08 he decides to 'let go', the result of which can be seen in the previous sentence to this one.
Yea, I mean it's not really hard to see. Anakin lied almost helplessly on the table, with OB1 standing over him, and OB1 tries to slice him down the middle... an unarmed (haha, he had a fake arm... oh, sorry) Anakin to whom his referred as his brother. Doesn't seem like restraint or compassion there. And lets not forget, it was OB1 who first drew his saber while Anakin had his back turned.

conceded. There is more evidence to support your view on that one, then mine. Unless he let go twice, which is weird... Giving this, we are left with an obi-wan going all-out killing anakin, so i don't think it kills my over-all argument all that much. Retreating was still his way, and the "burned his heart to ash" comment was BEFORE his moment of "letting go of everything " quote.
I hate doing this: it is tacky, but I just thought of something that needs added:
One of those: Wish I had said THAT moment, but in the interest of having a thorough discussion, i must bring it to the table.
Now, the quote you are using about Kenobi Letting things go, occurs BEFORE his moment of hesitence, allowing for the possibility that he didn't truly LET THINGS GO, as we are using it here. The fact that he has another moment like that later, supports the point.
Secondly, you are supporting your claim by the moment in the movie where anakin is lying on the ground, and Kenobi brings the saber down on him. Considering the novel still has Kenobi in a state of hesitation, you assertation is that the novel is wrong at the point, because it is contradicting by Kenobi's actions on screen, am i right?
Consider this: Perhaps Kenobi was bringing that blade down to his throat, and was going to stop just short of the kill, with ANakin Helpless. That would fit the novel, and is impossible to disprove.
(Also impossible to prove,however, I'm putting wiggle room back in the argument for Kenobi holding back until the 2:45-2:55 mark.)
Considering that Kenobi trying to kill Anakin there WOULD NOT fit the novel (what was he letting go of that second time, in that instance?) there is still a strong argument to support Kenobi not truly letting go until the second incident on the conduit.
(sorry about the early concession, poor form, i know, but I want to be thorough.)
Originally posted by truejediSorry, so I don't think so. He swinging the saber rather hard and quickly. Anakin had to stop himself from being killed with his own saber. He wasn't doing what Mace did to Sidious. All you have to do is look at the speed and manner with which they both move their sabers. Since we can't know what OB1 was thinking, we have to take it at face value, which was he was trying to, as Advent said, cleave Anakin in half.
