What if Qui Gon Never Died?

last time I try to be funny 🙄

nothing wrong with being funny! That's what makes the world go around, making people smile that is.

I failed in this one though

People like you feel sorry for yourself at that leeds to hate, which consumes you to the dark side.

oh! but I love the dark side 😉

Back on topic though:If Qui Gon lived he would have trained Anakin better than Obi Wan could have and Anakin Skywalker would have never turned into the monstrous Lord of the Sith known as Darth Vader.

I don't think Qui-Gonn could have trained Anakin any better than Obi-wan could. Anakin was a bomb waiting to go off.

Children getting seperated from their moms and then their almost dad-like master dies. That would really suck.

It was the death of his mother that started him truly on the path. That would have happened no matter what.

point is, he knew his mother, and that she died pointed out why exactly padawans shouldn't know their parents

Of course Qui-Gon could have taught Anakin better than Obi-Wan- that is whole point of Obi-Wan's plot, trying to fulfill a promise to his Master that he could not do.

The word is plight I think. Otherwise your logic is as always flawless.

No, I meant plot. Whilst it WAS a dilemma for him his plot in the prequels is that he is not up to the task he inheritied from his Master.

Where exactly was a flaw of Obi-Wan's that Qui-Gonn would not have had.

He was not as good a tutor- as described by all official sources (and even himself in the Classic films), he thought he could do it but could not.

He believed he could teach the boy as good as Yoda could but was unable to prevent him from turning to the dark side.

Becuase the dark side had already destroyed him.

Obi Wan Kenobi was not able to sense the dangers to Anakin as Qui Gon might have. There was too much big brother/little brother rivalry going on between them that ultimately undermined any relationship of teacher/student. Had he lived Qui Gon would not have had such a problem. He had the practical experience that Obi Wan lacked.

But who says Qui-Gonn would not have made the same mistakes. Show me that source!

Because he was a Jedi Master entrusted by the Council in bringing up Padawans and also did a fantastic job with ObiWan. QGJ is clearly shown to be a GREAT teacher.
