Nick Gillard ranking question

Does Nick explain how Anakin as a 9.loses to Kenobi who is an 8?

Here's Gillards take

"With Lucas. It’s not written by him. In EPISODE THREE, Lucas’s script would say, “a sword fight ensues” and he’ll tell you how much time you have to fill. My take on the whole duel was that Obi is the central character in that duel. He wouldn’t try and kill Anakin. The way I saw that fight was like having a fight with your girlfriend. That she’s just lost it and that she’s coming at you with everything she’s got. You can’t hit her-she’s a girl. So you try to defend her as long as you can until she breaks down. Then you can give her a cuddle. That was the way I saw it. Obi is taking it and taking it, and hoping it’ll lead to a point where Anakin will run out of steam."

Nick apparently confirms Anakin and Obi-Wan were dating.

And yet Obi Wan tries to kill Vader on multiple occasions during the duel...

And ends the fight by brutally slicing off all of his limbs and leaving him to burn in lava, lmao.

"You can't hit her-she's a girl."

Most of the fist fights I've been in were actually with girls.

Gillard has said in the Making of ROTS, that Anakin and Obi-Wan couldnt get past each others defences because they Knew each other moves inside out.

So kind of consistent with the ROTS novel.

It doesn't need to be consistent with novel, since novel is inconsistent with movie itself.

So Gillard says Anakin is gay. Lmao The Chosen One, the Force god, is ****ing GAY!!!! 😂

Not seeing the issue there. #GayEmpowerment

The force is clearly female as said by our lord and savoir Kathleen Kennedy.

Men aren't naturally born as 'gay'.

I mean, they are, but I'm not sure how or why that's relevant to Anakin's power?

Are you naturally gay?

I mean, I guess it depends what you define as "naturally". It is a deviation in nature, sure, but it's still an occurance that happens in pretty much most species of animals and so far a scientific consensus is that it is something you're born with.

But, my major question is: Why and how is this relevant to a discussion about Obi and Annie dueling and Anakin being the Chosen One?

Gillard said Anakin is gay. That's all. But it makes sense.

Maybe he's bi? Since he has a thing for Padme and Obi-Wan.
