Qui Gon's Funeral | Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (1999)

It also makes perfect sense though given that he's basically the Prime Minister of Naboo. He gets to keep up appearances by attending of funeral of the first Jedi that they *know* was killed by a Sith in a thousand years, all while getting to relish in the fact it was his apprentice's handiwork and he is currently surrounded by people who want to kill him for this, and if that isn't the most f*cking Palpatine thing I don't know what is

This was the beginning of Anakin’s downfall. With the death of Qui-Gon, Anakin lost the only Jedi who could rightfully teach and mentor Anakin.

What Anakin needed was a father figure to guide him being Qui-Gon

[@jakeproven256]

Plus when Anikin was a padawan, Obi-wan was to hard on him at times, though to Obi-wans credit, the reason he was hard on him was just because he wanted what was best for Anikin as are most times when parents are hard on their kids, but yeah if Qui-gon were alive Anikin would never had joined Sidious.

I like how the music in this scene is the same one used in the first time we saw Anakin in Darth Vader's suit; it perfectly alludes to the fact that Qui-Gon's death essentially doomed Anakin into falling to the dark side. You see... Qui-Gon Jinn was the ideal, if not the *perfect* paternal figure for young Anakin, but with him gone, Anakin gets easily befriended by Palpatine, allowing the manipulative Sith lord to become the father figure that Qui-Gon never became.

[@jakeproven256]

Correct, although I would argue Qui-gon was that father figure to Anikin, it's just because Qui-gon was dead he couldn't be their for Anikin.

[@LLoweGovna]

Anakin was free to leave the jedi anytime he wished. He didn’t. That’s his fault. And Anakin was pretty independent as a kid. Nobody took Anakin away from his mother. He made that choice on his own. Why did Anakin leave. Cuz he cared about having cool jedi powers more. And when Anakin turned to the dark side he was an adult and a fully fledged jedi knight with an already fully trained apprentice. So the choice was his and his alone.

During Anakin's training and the events of Attack of the Clones, the seeds begun to take root and grow little by little. By the time, Clone Wars and Revenge of the Sith occur: they've sealed their fate, the Jedi, the Galaxy, the republic, all fell to Palpatine.

Qui Gon's death was the final straw for Count Dooku, who ultimately left the Jedi Order and would come to hate the Order forever as a result. The irony is that Palpatine both attended Qui Gon's funeral, and later used Jinn's death as an advantage to turn Dooku to the dark side. If Qui Gon had survived, it's likely that the Clone War would not have happened in the scale as it did in AOTC, speaking of ROTS aswell (no darth vader, no order 66), in regards to that Anakin would have been trained by Qui Gon solely and become neutral. But Palpatine would have probably found another way around and still have his Empire rise.

to think this happens right after dooku kills yaddle.

[@da-vidcargill4975]

@Trevor White no after, palpaltine was there when yaddle died on coruscant. so its makes sense, after yaddle death, he went to naboo for quigon funeral, but a key dialogue which fans need to pay attention( dialogue is something fans need to start looking into as its important) is that yaddle said that the masters were on their way to naboo for the funeral , before following dooku, which means quigon funeral didnt start at the time of dooku vs yaddle

[@vasya4739]

In this shot, Obi Wan and Padme standing between Pulpy and Anakin. As you know, these two were the only thing that kept Anakin from going to the dark side. Lucas is a master of such details...

[@adamcade604]

Lucas has a tendency in his directing to offer his creativity on specific sequences with having immense choreography, or dramatic scenes but then he would leave other parts on the fly and that brought down the prequels

[@ilariodinicola8162]

In the funeral there are a lot of Jedi masters, but I can’t see Yaddle, she was in the council earlier on coruscat, but now she’s not here.......... where is she? Is she safe? Is she alright? Ps (I just fished tales of the Jedi ofc I know)

0:20 Jar jar is smiling bro. Hes a SITH!!!!

[@bluebird5956]

And he's standing next to Palpatine

[@mrdonut1231]

We not gonna talk about how at 0:20 Jar Jar, who completely isnt a sith lord, is smiling and finding happiness at the funeral of a jedi master?

[@jbrammer5471]

This scene is honestly great. The only two people standing between Anakin and Palps are Obi wan and Padme. The only two who stand in Palptines way of controlling Anakin

[@kuribayashi84]

Anakin: "Will I be set on fire too when I die?" Obi-Wan: "No, you will be alive when it happens."

[@Ahzuv]

my favorite scene in star wars after reading the plagueis novel. so much is going on in the background in such a simple scene.

[@Jude.Stappard]

imagine how different it would have been if Qui Gon never died. this is also one of my favourite scenes in all of Star Wars, Anakin staring at his future of fire and even the same music playing when he transformed into Darth Vader. this scene is brilliant although the whole film is not very good this and the duel of the fates were the only parts of the film I liked

[@BrandonBreezeyVirgo]

I like how Windu and Yoda talk together and it cuts to Palpatine who looks pissed lol

[@TheHManShow]

I never realized until now that the last shot of Palpatine was meant to imply that he himself is Darth Sideous!!! Amazing!!

[@FastFrameClips827]

The shot of palpatine after yoda explained the rule of two was such a a good detail in the scene

[@huntercool2232]

“But which was destroyed? The master or the apprentice?” *Neither actually.* 💀💀

[@StuartLugsden]

And just hours before Dooku killed Yaddle.

[@mazkeraid4039]

Wrong, Yaddle sacrificed herself in the comic, and Dooku left perhaps after the death of Finis Valorum.

[@sag6445]

Jar Jar: at last meesa will reveal myself, at last meesa will have revenge

[@AdamIqball]

Th symbolism of having padme and obi wan stand between anakin and palpatine was cool. Then having the burning body have the same theme as Anakin going into the suit later on. Anakin asking his future and literally seeing it in front of him.

[@Rambit]

Oh John Williams you utter genius. Bringing this theme back in Padme's destiny and Darth Vader entering the suit.

[@alberteinstein3612]

I love how the same soundtrack was used to depict the birth and death of Anakin Skywalker as a Jedi Knight Comes to show the beauty of George Lucas’ writing and scripting

[@zacg8975]

What's really interesting is that The Phantom Menace and Return Of The Jedi both echo each other

[@isaacacosta4308]

Crewmate, theres an impostor among us

[@ostrry1]

Or maybe he is imposting the impostor?

[@wongusblongus4310]

when the imposter is sus!😳

[@knightwarrioranimations9656]

@@wongusblongus4310 Jar Jar Binks is the imposter Darth Jar Jar The Phantom Menace.

[@Wilsy1808]

A Jedi’s real strength isn’t the force, it’s being able to withstand the smell of being that close to a burning body

[@blueford2990]

0:18 Jar Jar smiles. Darth Jar Jar

[@edgarortiz7925]

After watching Tales of the Jedi this hits harder.

[@JustinGamesYT]

Guys look at 0:15 and notice how R2 looks at Jar Jar Binks, he was the true sith all along! Edit: If you guys are confused, look really closely at Jar Jar and you can see he’s smiling, then R2 notices him and he goes back to mourning.

[@nerdherd2604]

Dooku did not attend his padawans funeral. Dooku had already committed to the sith cause by this point, however he would've thrown the shroud of the dark side and had been at Palpatine's throat had he been there and watched the lord of darkness pretending to mourn and care for Qui Gonn's death. Practically a mockery to him.

[@Erapathia]

And secretly Dooku is battling Yaddle

[@da-vidcargill4975]

no this came after yaddle death as palpaltine was at both events , so he saw yaddle death then wento to quigon funeral

[@Erapathia]

@@da-vidcargill4975 close enough

[@icedtray6834]

This scene is actually really sad rip Qui Gon :(

[@garrett8707]

I like how they didn’t even cover qui Gons face. Just watchin his face melt
