Sorry, but what does IMHO mean? People keep using it and I don't know what it means.
Anyway, perhaps Qui-Gon's good traits are there so that Lucas doesn't want us to suspect anything. Like Xizor said, there will be a ton of surprises and twists that will work well with little hints in TPM and I think that's what's going to make the Prequel Trilogy seem so clever.

I think IMHO means in my humble opinion, but I could be wrong. And I hope that your are right DD. I expect at LEAST one major surprise but hope for many ones.

Yes...IMHO does mean "in my humble opinion"...
And I have no idea what would be better than something as suprising as "Luke, I am your father"...I hope you're right...

What if....
Has any one considered the fact that Shmi may have been a prostitute when she was younger?
Would YOU tell Qui Gon that's how this remarkable little boy was concieved?

Re: What if....
I guess that could be a possibility, but I don't think she was anything but a slave. I heard her family was killed by space pirates when she was a child and she was taken to Tatooine to become a slave. From then on she was swapped around from master to master. I don't think she would have been in prostitution at the same time.

Re: What if....
Maybe she was raped by one of her masters. That could explain why she was so reluctant to talk about it. And then the real question is to whom Shmi belonged before she conceived Anakin.

Re: What if....
Or she could have been pushed into iot my a "pimp" Hott. Ok, sounds stupid but this senario could be true.
Actually, if the recent plots ideas about Shmi's fate are to be believed we may never know. According to them she wikll only be a on screen for a short while as she is beaten by Tusken Raiders and dies in Anakins arms only minutes after he finds her in the desert.
Some reunion huh?

Re: What if....
This is Star Wars people...not Shmi Does Tatooine...the answer is simple...Anakin has no daddy...NO DADDY...he's not normal...(I think everyone can atleast agree to that)

Re: What if....
Nope, can't agree cos we don't know for sure yet. And, as I said earlier, I don't think it will be resolved if that plot synopsis at Aldera.Net is true.
Shmi does Tatooine, now that IS funny.

Re: What if....
I agree with Ratcat. Until the saga is complete you could even say that Vader isn't really Luke's father and he was lying in the OT. Nothing is set until we hear the whole story.

Re: What if....
It's npot so much that, but yes you are right.
I was more thinking along the lines that if Shmi dies without revealing it then effectively her story could die with her.

Re: What if....
Yes, I agree. If Lucas wants to do anything sensible with those midi's, he'd better deliver Anakin's dad somehow. Shmi's response to Qui-Gon's question is too unsettling to dismiss the fact that Anakin had a dad at all.

Re: What if....
One thing I DON'T want to see is Plapatine turning out to be the father. But then, as I have said so many times, I hate it when things get too interconnected.

Re: What if....
Yes I would hate for Palpy to be the father too. If he does indeed have a father then the best bet would be Christopher Lee as he is certainly force-powerful and possibly plays a banished Jedi, which would explain why he is unknown.

That is an idea with some merit, I think I could almost go for that. I just wonder how they would have met?
