The most powerful force user always stirs up a big debate, but if you follow the movies and go by what GL has said himself it has to be Mace Windu. Not only was he the youngest person to be voted onto the jedi counsil at age 28, he mastered a form of combat that even the sith think to be too deadly and emotionally taxing(Vaapad) and he handily beat Sidious in a fight. For those of you who think somehow sidious could have been faking just need to read the making of Eps 3 artbook, Lucas goes out of his way to show Mace beats Palp fair and square. Lucas said without Vaapad, Mace is on par with Yoda, Dooku, Annikan and Sidious, with it no one is his equal. Garen Malek quite possibly is beyond them all. No force user had been born of one Jedi (other than Luke and Leia) much less 2. Both of Garen parents are Jedi, making him extraordinarily powerful. Taking everythig into consideration top 5 force beings in the canon series has to be 1. Mace 2. Sidious 3. Yoda 4. Annikan 5. Qui-gon-jinn. Eu ( Bane and zannah would make any short list)

Jack Daniels
with time your hypothesis could have been proved to be true but as it stands mace went on a trip from which unless he grabbed a flying speeder on the way down with his one hand..lol..there is no return so he sux luke wins..lol...

If we are just going by the movies, I assume Yoda. Oh, and it's Galen Marek.

If you are talking about him mentioning EU, that's correct. He did say that the list of the most powerful force users should be Canon though. Which is the topic of the thread if I understand correctly. Oh, and it is "since"...

Sorry, my mistake, since, not sense...they sound the same yes? But they are not the same. Thank you spell check.

Way to get off topic, anyways, the point is you don't talk about EU like that in the I, II, and III section...ever.

That is why we have the EU section. A place where few of us people go...it has its own members and it is a very scary place to go.

It is full of Star Wars characters non of us have ever heard of, it has lightsaber colors that never existed, and...most scary of all...it contradicts itself! Dun dun dun.

Meh, Canon can do that itself. The point is this guy wants to talk about the most powerful force users in the canon, which should be placed here. That he mentioned EU characters and facts, though, regretable, doesn't make it any less fitted in here. Besides, I hear sad rumors that Force Unleashed is going to be canon anyways.

Okay, that is sad, force unleashed can't be canon becuase it isn't a movie...let's hope they keep it EU.

Lord Knightfa11
Lucas said that sideous was the most powerful sith lord, and the novelization said that yoda was "the most powerful foe the darkness had ever known".

So yea, your wrong.

steverules
Yoda is more powerful with the force...he's the one who can stop force lightning with his hands and use it on the sith themselves...Mace had to use his lightsabre.

Well the situations are different. Mace already had his lightsaber activated...Yoda did not. I think they do whatever comes first. As time is critical.

Jack Daniels
I think mace shoulda had a few shots of jack daniels and he wouldnt have hesitated to waste palps...and then annie never woulda had the chance to turn robotish...his ole lady wouldnt have died during child birth and he woulda been just fine and not had his nuts burned off..lol..its all mace's fault?

Yeah, but he's as ugly as shite.

Still, Foxis is the most powerful character in the SW universe because he is portrayed by "Oh lord SS!", who is close personal friends with George Lucas. He can beat ANYBODY.

In the movies Mace didnt use much as force powers go...he bested palps with swordsmanship...but yoda was definately more in tune with the force than mace...yoda was the only force user "in the movies" that could catch darkside force lightning with his hands...mace didnt feel the tremors when a jedi was in pain or killed as yoda did...so yes movies only ..YODA ..though Luke had to have been the most powerful ever as he was able to become more powerful than vader within a very short amount of time...unless further movies are made Luke I guess only for sure takes the cake in EU...

You should listen to the audio commentary to ROTS. Lucas says Sidious faked being weak at the hands of Windu. Sidious could have continued his lightning attack, but didn't to play weakness.

In a way Sidious threw the fight. Mace was clearly struggling with the lightning attack, and would have eventually been overpowered if Sidious continued the assault.

I never knew this. That statement by lucas confirms Palpatine was indeed doing that to draw in Anakin.

Well, for some reason Lucas needs some large explanatory encyclopedia to the PT, explaining everything he obviousloy wasn't able to convey in the films. So Lucas explanation may be correct, the film itself (the canon) doesn't allow us to find the answer.

Isn't that why commentaries are made, to help viewers get a better understanding of movies?

Besides Lucas' comment does not contradict what was shown in the movie. In fact it made more sense, seeing how Sidious sprang back to life suddenly.

queeq
A film should tell it's own story. One should be able to watch and get a film WITHOUT a commentary, you know. I think if a commentray is needed to get what's going on, let alone being able to feel along with the main characters, then there are some MAJOR MAJOR flaws with that film.

I only watch the commentaries for the interesting information and stories they tell about the making of the film and the special effects.

To me Qui-gon is the weakest--he did not have any showings putting him above any of the other main characters. I'll put yoda slightly above Mace and almost, but not quite, equal to Sidious. I wonder if Sid could have taken Vader and Luke both at the same time in ROTJ.

In a way he kinda did, though he died in the process. He had Luke on his ass. Then when Vader came to Luke's rescue, he ended up killing Vader.

Ouch! I guess some people that REALLY want broadband would like that.

Anakin_the_Hutt
Anakin Skywalker was the most powerful force user. Palpatine warned Yoda that, "Darth Vader will become more powerful than either of us."

Had crap not gone the way it went down, Darth Vader would've probably ended up like he did in the alternate ending for the ROTS video game; where he defeated Obi-Wan and killed the Emperor.

sweersa
Umm. Okay.

Anakin_the_Hutt
That's right.

sweersa
Originally posted by Anakin_the_Hutt

Anakin had the most potential but blew it ultimately, then his sone came into the picture and basically became the most powerful if I am not mistaken.

Anakin_the_Hutt
Yup, Ani blew it. But I don't think Luke was more powerful than Yoda.

Jack Daniels
not in the movie but later in eu and game land he did become the most powerful

Anakin_the_Hutt
Who Luke?

Lord Knightfa11
In eu he became part of the godhead or some madness like that.

Jack Daniels
Mark Hamill goes into history as playing the most powerful biotch ever..lol..not even the old sith can touch him

K-Dog
Did Obi Wan reach his full potential do you think? He was a full Jedi for several years (training and raising Anakin) before he went back to Luke's planet and sat on his butt presumably. Anyway, I was thinking that he was probably number 3 behind Yoda and Mace because he beat Maul (PIS I know), Grievious, and evil Anakin all three which I know were not easy wins, but it gives him more than anyone else. And if we assume (I know this is a bit of a stretch) that since Anakin beat Dooku, and Obi Wan beat Anakin, then Obi Wan was probably very close to Dooku by that point if he would have gone head-to-head the second time.

Jack Daniels
somehow I just think dooku had obi-wans # ....he trained his master so he knew exactly how to deal with obi-wan...IMO

I agree. Because Obi-Wan really fights well against Maul and Anakin.

Jack Daniels
the boss said queeq was canon so when I listened to the novel Dooku wanted Obi-Wan ....why would Dooku consider Obi_wan more worthy(no EU thoughts please only novel or if any movie... canon) as the audio novel made out like Dooku had a grandfather jr apprentice thing...but being a wise jedi /sith lord if skywalker was the one shouldnt he have picked up that vibe that skywalker was it..and obiwan was to much of a hippy? Dooku was uber powerful according to Yoda in AOTC...really canon only... cause eu will make me dizzy right now trying to think to hard...eu sw can make anyone disorientated lol..

Sidious is the strongest, barely nudging out Yoda for the honour of the top dog spot

JediRobin23
Yoda is most powerful. He didn't really lose to Palpatine, he just didn't beat him at the time. Good force is stronger than dark as yoda explains to Luke in esb. Definitely not mace. Mace needs a lightsaber to absorb Palpatines lightning

queeq
Hmmm... well, Yoda said that, but he never proved it.
In the end love was more powerful than the dark side... a mushy conclusion, but Anakin's "attachment" beat the Sith.

relentless1
Yoda didn't beat him because he couldn't beat him at the time is horse shit, he didn't beat Sids because he couldn't, he was given a great showing against the Emperor and thats really as far as it goes.

JediRobin23
If yoda beat him, then the stories over. All good and no need to have ep 4-6. Yay....

queeq
And those were the better movies... can't have those left out. wink

JediRobin23
Well. Maybe, he should have started with ep 1 with jar jar then Star Wars would have definitely been over after ep 1. Unless people in the 70s would have liked it.....

Well becuSe by the time Sidious ascends to emperor palptine by ROTJ I'd say Sidious has succesffully gained enough new knowledge and with that power that he has surpassed yoda.

Thai si proven by how Vader>Dooku. Dooku needed help taking down ROTS Sidious. Vader needed help taking down ROTJ palpatine. This shows a power boost for Sidious something that yoda didn't have. so with that yoda in his ROTS incarnation would be defeated by palpatine in ROTJ. Does this answer your question?

The most powerful Force sensitive was Anakin. He unfortunately never met his full potential. The most skilled Force wielder is another debate.

That's interesting because I've never thought of the most force sensitive and most powerful force user being separate. I guess that makes sense because Palpy was a lot more adept at using the force compared to Anakin, especially once he got put in the suit.
