The reason Yoda is so much more nimble when he fights is he is actually using the force to puppet his own body around. When he is just using his own muscles he needs the cane and such.

[@DaelinD]

Not at all, of course. The reason is that George Lucas is a giant man-baby and he waited to make the prequels until CGI became another toy for him to play with.

[@Painocus]

@@DaelinD: If so then why wouldn't Yoda just be nimble all the time? Then he'd get to show off more CGI. Like how does what you are saying have anything to do with what I said? They thought the plot reason was that Yoda was faking it, I said what the plot reason was. So how is "actually that is wrong, Lucas wanted to play with CGI"? Ok? And? If someone wondered how the Death Star moves around within the narrative of the plot, and I said "it just uses hyperdrive to get around", would you respond with something like "not at all. Lucas wanted to play with ship models"? What is your point?

Fun Fact: While Christopher Lee was an expert fencer (even at the age of 79), he didn't know the first thing about katanas (which lightsabers are meant to be handled as). So they designed his lightsaber hilt to allow him to handle it like a rapier. Also, the movie theater crowd went bananas when Yoda walked in to fight.

[@Reverendshot777]

Was it not shaped like a saber handle, not a rapier?

[@Dusk.EighthLegion]

1. I knew Sir Lee was a fencer, didn't know he was an expert. 2. I didn't know lightsabers are meant to be handled as katanas. 3. I always wondered why his saber hilt looked like that. Three new fun facts, thank you good sir!

Remember that Lee served with Bond's creator, Ian Fleming during WWII. I have found another fun fact: Lee is stepcousin to Fleming. Lee's mother remarried to another man after Lee's parents' divorce. Other man is Fleming's uncle. Another fact about Christopher Lee, he is related to American General Robert E Lee, who was Confederate General during 1861 to 1865 American Civil War (war between the states).

The boy was Boba Fett (bounty hunter in first three movies). Yoda wasn't insulting Dooku, he was praising him. Dooku was his pupil, and Yoda was Jedi Grandmaster ( for like 400 years or so, iirc). Padme (in the lore) was like 15-16 when she met Anakin (9), so not too much older ten years later.

First of all, I want to say HANNAH nailed it, understanding both sides of Anikin and the Jedi way and why things couldn't have happened. ASH... you just chatted shit and disregarded the ways of the Jedi 😂😂 also his mum has a tracker in her and would be found and killed, Anikin can't become a Jedi but not following the rules. Thirdly, I knew Ash would go mental at the Yoda fight scene 😂😂 great reaction both and loved the dress up.

[@kroanosm617]

This is why Yoda said he was too old. He was old enough to have memories of his mom.

[@rbrtck]

Ash, you're still not getting it. You can't coddle a child into being a Jedi, which is like being a warrior priest. They have to be fearless. A guy like Anakin is just too emotional and full of fear for those he loves. A guy like Anakin should never be trained to be a Jedi. They were just too intrigued by his potential and the way he seemed to fit some kind of prophecy. Yoda knew better, but was ignored. Yoda also felt, less strongly, that Luke was similarly unqualified, and Luke, for all of his similarities to his father, is a lot stronger than Anakin. Yoda still thought Luke was wrong for this. He wasn't right that time, but he had the same right ideas, and he was right about Anakin. One way or another, Anakin was way too vulnerable to being turned to the dark side--much more so than Luke.

[@outtheredude]

That, along with the benefit of not having Luke's ego groomed for over 10 years from childhood by Palpatine at his most charming and persuasive.

[@rbrtck]

@@outtheredude On the one hand, you have a point, but on the other hand, they're still two different people in two different situations, and Luke got double-teamed by the Emperor and his own father, whom he was trying to save. The Emperor gave him every reason to give in to his hatred, and when Luke decided "Hey, why not kill this evil bastard? He's too dangerous to leave alive anyway," his father then gave him every reason to doubt his faith in him and Luke himself. Betrayed by his father and his own feelings, since Vader was now aware of Leia, and with his friends and loved ones apparently on the brink of defeat and death, Luke could have given in, feeling the power of his white-hot hatred flowing through him, but ultimately he could not be turned. It is difficult to compare the two characters and situations directly, but all things considered, Luke seems stronger and more resolute to me. While I'm sure he had a healthy ego by the time he had completed his Jedi training, he wasn't naturally an egotistical narcisist (let's face it) like Anakin. I understand for Anakin and what he was put through, but he was always a prime candidate for turning to the dark side, which Yoda had worried about since he was just a cute little kid. In addition, he was a would-be, quite possibly a wannabe dictator, himself, while Luke is not. I just can't imagine Luke falling into the same trap, even if he were in the same situation. He had some of Anakin's weaknesses, but not all of them, and not as severe. He might have been tempted, but he would not have turned.

[@gem3dem]

If you remember in Episode I, when Qui Gon discovers how force sensitive Anakin is, the Jedi council is hesitant because Anakin is already much older than the age of which Younglings begin their Jedi training. They were trying to avoid this very issue of Anakin having emotional attachment, something which the Younglings don’t have since they’re trained at a much younger age, and that parental role is fulfilled by their assigned Jedi master. That was what Qui Gon was supposed to be for Anakin, but was left to Obi Wan after Qui Gon was killed (hence: Duel of the Fates). And while they had a very strong relationship, Obi Wan was ill prepared to take on the role and assumed more of a brotherly relationship, which left Anakin emotionally unfulfilled

[@topheavykoolaid]

I wonder if a better strategy would’ve been to assign new Jedi Younglings to much older retired Jedi so that if they die naturally it’s upsetting, but maybe easier to accept as a natural separation, then reassign them to younger masters when they go on assignments

[@athenstar10]

I agree. I always think that on Episode 1, Darth Maul went to Tattoine to actually keep Qui-gon from getting Anakin. Or it's the other way around, making sure that Anakin would join them and while they can harm his mother.

[@patrickdoss25]

Ahhhh but this was the inherent flaw of the Jedi: to ask intelligent, emotional living beings to constantly suppress themselves when it is an impossible thing to do. To ask someone to be unfeeling yet selfless and altruistic leads to darkness and ultimately brings out the worst traits in oneself. If you want a generalized view of the Jedi/Sith you can break it down to the Jedi believe in suppressing one’s passions while the Sith are all about fully embracing it. Neither side is totally right in their philosophy and the true answer is about having balance in oneself aka a “Grey Jedi”, a Jedi who was neither completely light or dark. A good example of this was Ahsoka, Anakin’s apprentice.

[@fisher3317]

@@patrickdoss25 I feel like in the original trilogy, Luke is pretty much the ultimate evidence of how unnecessary the Jedi's ultra dogmatic ways were. He grew up in a normal family without any exposure to Jedi teachings until he was much older and, despite still having flaws, was more well adjusted than Anakin and had healthy attachments to his sister and friends (as opposed to how unhealthy Anakin's attachment was to Padme), and all but proving the Jedi wrong about bringing someone back from the Darkside being impossible.

[@sevvv8434]

@@papalotapuss995No. Jedi are taken from their parents at a very young age for a reason. It’s so they don’t have that attachment. Exactly what we see with Anakin and his mother is the entire reason they didn’t want to train him to begin with. They knew how strong he was, but he also had an extreme attachment to his mother because he was too old when he left home. The Jedi don’t bring families with them, why would they make an exception for Anakin when it goes against their entire teaching principal? On top of that, how exactly should Qui Gon have taken his mother? Kill her slaver or just steal her? They didn’t have the money to buy her, and they don’t just murder and steal. There was no way for Qui Gon to get his mother and even if he could have, it goes against their rules for recruiting Padawan.

The Jedi could have freed her. Anakin could have freed her, bought her or whatever but the Jedi stopped him and threatened him to kick him out the Jedi order. If they had helped him free his mom, he wouldn't have been so tilted about the Jedi. All the doubts come from that alone. Over time, he came to despise them. Once she died, his goal was to become the most powerful to change things and the Jedi order. This got him in conflict with the Jedi order, which punished him again and again, making him more and more tilted. At the same time, be had the sith influencing him. Had the Jedi helped him from the get go, he would have been less confrontational and more thankful, with Palpatine's influence not working. It was all the jedi's fault, with major help from the sith. They are 2 sides of the same coun.

[@FeaturingRob]

- Jango Fett is a Mandalorian, a culture in the Star Wars universe that is based on fighting and developing yourself to be the best warrior you can be. The Mando'ade welcome most species, all one must do is accept the Creed. The armor that Jango wears is Mandalorian made from Beskar, which it light and strong, and only the Mando'ade have the secrets to forge it. Kind of like the adamantium of Wolverine's claws and skeleton in X-Men. Jango's son, if you missed his name, is Boba Fett...the bounty hunter who took Han Solo to Jabba the Hutt, and fell into the Sarlacc pit. Clan Fett had a long and proud lineage among the Mando'ade, but fell before the Prequel Trilogy. - The Clone Troopers are all created from Jango, but are grown and fight for the Republic. - The reason why Mace Windu's lightsaber is purple is two-fold. 1) Samuel L. Jackson asked George Lucas if it could be purple, because he wanted to see where he was in long shots. 2) In the lore, Mace was such a powerful Jedi that he could skirt the dark side of the Force without falling to it. What happens when you mix the colors of red and blue...you get purple. - Ash, you are right about Count Dooku's saber. Where most sabers were built along the lines of seeing the Jedi like samurai (since Akira Kurosawa films were a big influence on the series), when Sir Christopher Lee was hired, George discovered that he had a fully trained fencing master playing Count Dooku. As a result, Dooku's saber is more fit for a single hand, with greater control, and precision in landing blows. It is more like a fencing saber, foil, or epee than a katana. - One thing to always remember, the Force always seeks balance. With Anakin there is a chance of the balance to happen...not giving spoilers...but there are things set in the lore beyond what is in the films that explain things further. - Obi-wan was not meant to take on Anakin, the way that Anakin would never have turned is if Qui-Gon Jinn had lived. Hannah was completely right. The key to this is the battle between Qui-Gon, Darth Maul, and Obi-Wan...the music under their fight, composed by John Williams, was titled "Duel of the Fates". It was a duel over Anakin's fate. Qui-Gon would have been a fatherly master, but with Obi-Wan...Anakin got a big brother. They both cared for each other, but Obi-Wan, as powerful and smart as he was, was unequal to the task of training Anakin. He lacked the wisdom that Qui-Gon had. - Hannah...you need to dress up as Padme for the last of the Prequels, Revenge of the Sith.

39:34 YES! THANK YOU, YOU GET IT. Too many people gloss over the true tragedy of Anakin's character. He's a slave his entire life. First as Watto's, then he's a slave to the Jedi, being expected to fulfill their ancient prophecy and give everything to the Jedi cause in return, and then finally he ends up a slave to the Emperor. Only in his final minutes talking to Luke is the man ever truly free: "I've got to save you-" "You already have."

[@gtube6913]

So much of the downfall of this saga is about honour and emotion clashing around fixed systems. Anakin was an anomaly from conception to death. Tragic indeed.

[@PBRatLord]

Love that yall get it. The dialog is cheesy, but theatrical all the same. It can be immensely powerful in the moment and easily meme-material the next without any context for the lines... IDC what anyone says, I'll always hold the prequels close to my heart man. Something a lot of people look over is that the Clones are only 10 years old mentally when they're first sent into battle, even though they age twice as fast... Also, such massive ups to your makeup people, it's so dope yall been dressing up for these, love the commitment and love for these movies/your energy for movies in general

[@rbrtck]

Hannah is right. Anakin was so vulnerable to turning to the dark side that it was bound to happen, one way or another. The only way to have avoided this was to not train him--just let his super-strong connection to the Force be entirely wasted potential rather than be used for evil, like it was inevitably going to be.

The Jedi are supposed to be like Monks. No wives, no family, no attachments at all. It's dumb but that's the way it is. This is what makes Luke such a better Jedi than the Jedi. He was able to have friends and family and still resist evil. His love for his father saved the day. Even when Obi and Yoda were like F Vader.

[@fangru7294]

Yeah, Luke proved that Jedi way was wrong.

[@darjetti2172]

To be fair, the Jedi way was successful for 1,000 years. It just took the right Sith (Palpatine) to see the weaknesses in their ways and exploit them. I wouldn’t go as far as to say the Jedi were wrong. Luke chose a different way and it worked to a degree. Many Jedi still fell to the dark side that followed Luke, such as Kip. Luke isn’t a better Jedi, he’s just different.

[@Rocket1377]

It's not dumb, it was an approach that worked for over 1000 generations. Look what happened when they allowed Anakin to join the order. The temptation to use the Force for selfish reasons is exactly why they forbade personal attachments.

@@fangru7294 Luke was a good jedi, he still followed the jedi rules for the most part. most jedi have Friends just like luke did. Luke didn't have a wife so he was still following most of the rules. The jedi way has proved to be right for 1000s of years. Anakin is such a prime example. First time they allow a jedi to get emotional and get married and look what happens he becomes darth vader lol. Just saying now imagine 1000s of jedi with family and kids and how many of them would go dark to save there wives or loved ones.

I love that Hayden Christensen is getting his props after all these years. He was so poorly received when this trilogy came out and even left acting for a long time because of it. But now everyone is realizing that he actually did a great job, and most issues were actually directing issues. I think he did phenominal, people just wanted him to be a certain type of way, but at his core he is a scared and emotional little kid. But I agree, Absolutely love that his face can go from innocent to murderer in a blink, while barely changing his face at all. Super expressive eyes.

Another problem with allowing jedi to maintain connected to their families is their families can be used against them. Imagine you come back from a mission and find it your mom is kidnapped and being held for ransom. Then imagine her kidnappers get a message to you telling you to kill another jedi or assassinate a sensor. Having that kind of connection is too large a liability when you're as powerful as the jedi are.

I'm neither of those, and still saw two of the OT in theaters. I never disliked Hayden for his portrayal of Anakin. His flirting with Padme was pretty cringey, and Hayden as an actor does not do lovey dovey scenes very well. But he killed it with the swagger, confidence, pain, and rage that made up for his lack of chemistry with Natalie Portman. Your post indicates that you are a silly little kid blaming your elders for your own inadequacies. Further proven that you just automatically ignored that a generation between yours and the one you have been taught to hate even exists. You are spouting silly things that someone else told you to believe and you swallowed it, hook, line, and sinker without ever questioning if the person telling you had an agenda to brainwash you. I fully expect you to come back with some silly garbage that further proves that you don't think for yourself. Go ahead, do it.
