Why Qui-Gon Jinn Wasn't Allowed on the Jedi Council - Star Wars Explained

Qui-Gon Jinn was one of the most wise and true Jedi at the academy, which raises the question, why was he never accepted onto the Jedi Council? Padawan for Count Dooku and Master to Obi Wan Kenobi, surely, the force strong Jedi should have been appointed, but why wasn't he?

[@blackflagsnroses6013]

Because Qui-Gon was a true Jedi. He serves the will of the Force, letting it guide him, before serving a government and politics. Qui-Gon understood the Force better than anyone, even Yoda, in my opinion. He was closer to a balanced Grey Force Knight/user than anyone we've seen. He discovered the secret to live on within the Force with his wisdom. He was the best and truest Jedi of his time, not held back by Jedi tradition.

[@blackflagsnroses6013]

Smokey 420 Thank you. Just more proof of why he was the best.

[@ryanborchert8389]

Exactly my thoughts too, Qui Gon's the greatest of Jedi iin my eyes due to these facts, following the will of the force and allowing it to guide hi. Than

[@poopjeans1135]

Qui-Gon didn't discover the secret to immortality as a force ghost. It was his reward for devoting his life to the will of the force above all else...which is also the reason why he was NOT on the council. As a side note, the Council are directly responsible for the Jedi purge. It was their punishment for NOT following the will of the force but following the will of the Republic.

[@blackflagsnroses6013]

makenzie rosequist The Jedi and their dogma is skewed. The Sith are too wrapped up in themselves. True blance is the way of the Bendu, the Grey. I believe the original Jedi practiced and accepted both sides of the Force. Here's hoping that after the tragic loss at the hands of the Knights of Ren and meditating at the first Jedi Temple, Luke has found the original Jedi way and will bring it back to it's roots. Rey to be the first true Grey Jedi in ages. The Force is balance, accept it's will, accept the Light and Dark, become the Grey.

[@gourdguru]

"Qui-Gon didn't discover the secret to immortality as a force ghost. It was his reward for devoting his life to the will of the force above all else." i don't think so, since the final episode of clone wars makes it clear that his force ghost teaches yoda and obiwan to do it as well. if it was simply a matter of devotion to the force, it would not require tutelage beyond just saying "follow the force, dumbasses" it is clear that some aspect of his knowledge gained THROUGH his dedication to the force is what enabled him to maintain his own persona whilst still returning to unity within the force at large, not just his dedication alone.

[@MrEvilTag]

so basically he was denied because he wasnt a prick about the whole jedi thing

[@bananadaily2317]

the councel made there own downfall

[@shiningstar6659]

In the end, the Force validated Qui-Gon and the other Jedi Masters learned, all to tragically, of their supreme ignorance in regards to many aspects of the Force and it's incredible vastness, potential and power. By guiding the Force Priestesses to train him first and foremost, concerning the "Great Gift" as they termed it, the Force was validating everything Qui-Gon had come to believe, practice and teach. He not only should have been on the Council, he should have held a high position on it. There were many aspects of the force he was aware of that not even Yoda or Mace, the Grand Master and Master of the Order, were aware of at that time. That, itself, speaks to his deserving of being included on the Council. Darth Plagueis, in the legends book about his life, was extremely impressed with Qui-Gon and did not want him to train Anakin under any circumstances. That is why he ordered Sidious to dispatch Maul to assassinate him.

[@rainzzz1906]

Shining Star cool, which book?

[@shiningarmour6805]

Qui-Gon would have made Anakin more humble for sure. Like for example, "They allowed me into the council and did not give me the rank of master!" While Qui-Gon would have said something wise to him, that on his case it was the other way around, but he never stressed over it and always followed the will of the force regardless, that's how he found him after all.

He'll probably say: "They're nor allowing me on the council too. WHO CARES!" :D

[@OhioDan]

"They defined good as the common good, rather than the will of the Force. This is not much different than the Sith." Great observation. Realizing this is like taking the "red pill" of Star Wars.

Look at what happened to the Jedi. They were so sure of their ways, that they were blind to the dark side and its destructive power. Qui Gon Jinn saw the greater picture by letting the Force guide him.

[@ADRMajestic12]

It always seemed to me that the Jedi had become arrogant in the end and that Qui-Gon still retained the old ways which made them great.

[@CelahiR88]

I love that Qui-Gon doesn't care what everybody else thinks. He is in my mind a true jedi master. That lets the force guide him rather than the other way around :)

Hey, there's an idea. "What if Qui Gon Jinn was accepted into the high Jedi Council before the events of Episode One?" How would that have affected the story, not just his interactions (or not) with Anakin & Obi-Wan, but also would the council have been more capable of averting the Jedi purge?

[@bowser515]

I always thought it was harsh that Qui Gon wasn't allowed on the council. They allowed Windu after all who had a similar disposition. Qui Gon would have brought a different point of view to the council, it seems strange that they would use Windu's differences as a strength, but almost punish Qui Gon for his. They lost out if anything imo.

[@rastamandela981]

Racial quotas are a bitch

Windu still obeys the council. Qui-Gon not :)

[@WardyLion]

I'd have him on the council, no question. He has different ideas, methods and ideals, which would create debate and force the council to consider other viewpoints, not just the "official line"

[@phillipadams6735]

Qui Gon is my favorite Jedi. He listened to the force, knowing that even Jedi could betray the force because he had done it himself. He was fearless and accepted his fate.

[@ImStayGold42]

Qui-Gon was "brash", expressed his opinion and remain in the "here and now", he accepted dangerous missions that no one else would take, etc ....so far none of these are good reasons for keeping him out of the Jedi Order. ...in fact, they are all good reasons for why he should have been inducted over others.

[@bobthehobo666]

Braderz Is it just quantity? Is it cumulative strength? In this video he says that Anakin killing Sidious brought balance, but how was that done if the line of Sith was ended but the Jedi continued? How do grey Jedi play into it? What about factions that don't follow either the Jedi or sith codes nor even the concept of light and dark? Does the force have its own desires with regards to balance?

Joha wa alHimar it brought balance because both him and vader died so the only jedis and sith left are Luke and snoke

Sergio Milho the force is like a muscle the more you flex that muscle the stronger it will get so the more you use the force the stronger you will be with it

[@jeramymiller5067]

Sergio Milho I don't think the force is a tool. The Jedi should have been the tool that the forced used to accomplish its will. When they aligned with the senate that was contrary to what the force wanted. No matter how much they knew about the force the force had to have them destroyed. The tool the force used was the sith. Eventually it had them destroyed as well.

[@tangoalfa1970]

Qui-Gon was much less dangerous than Made and was a much better Jedi as far as his obedience to the living Force

[@ObiBrownKenobi]

As always GREAT VIDEO, Qui-Gon is also one of my favorite Jedi due to his nature. I firmly believe that had he been on the council he would have a better balance to their outdated dogma. Furthermore we should start a petition to get his story told on the big screen a Qui-Gon Jin and Young Obi-Wan Anthology would be AMAZING, was sad to see such a pivotal character in the Star Wars Saga get such minor screen time (Maul is another character that was under-utilized but that's another vid).

Episode 2: Attack Of The Clones -What if Obi-Wan captured Jango Fett? -What if Jango Fett escaped from Geonosis instead of dying from Mace Windu? Episode 3: Revenge Of The Sith: Literally nothing.... Episode 4: A New Hope -What made R5 I believe the droid name was malfunction? -What if the Empire never blew up Alderran? -What if George Lucas kept Obi-Wan alive?

Always love how Qui-gon was this kind of rouge and wise master. In the story it would looks more powerful that he is not on the council, but if star wars was real it would be best to have him on it as to much of the same voice blinds one for other opinions. That is is just my take on it, Qui-gon will always be me fav jedi of all time and i love that he is a big part of star wars even though he is not seen as much

[@codymcclean796]

if you think about it, dooku was actually a good man

[@TheLatiosnlatias02]

I wouldn't say good, but I could say he was misunderstood.

[@chuchulainn9275]

I think that both the members of the council and Jedi like Jinn have a place on the Council. Jinn had a strong connection to the Living Force and often followed it at the expense of the Cosmic Force while the Council did the opposite. The reason they clashed was because they saw Jinn as someone who "leapt before he looked", the council's job is to decide what's best for everyone and to consider how an action can affect everything. Jinn's philosophy is literally "Feel. Don't think". If it "felt" right, it meant it WAS right, which is not entirely true. However, there is such a thing as over thinking something. The Council often made decisions that often led to inaction, unnecessary, or overreaction. Their political ties and misguided loyalty to the Republic only complicated matters. Ironic that this "attachment" which they often preached about led to their downfall. They focused on the future so much that they completely overlooked not only the Sith's return but that there was one right in front of their nose! It also has made me question the prophecy about "the Chosen One" and the "balance" he/she is supposed to bring. Is it merely the balance between the Light and the Dark or was it speaking of a balance between the Living and the Cosmic? Maybe both? An imbalance of the use of the living force or the cosmic can lead to whether you choose light or dark. After all, balance is only achieved when you find the middle. But how do you find the middle of anything if you don't know the difference between the two extremes?

[@JamesJones-mt9co]

Know the cosmic force is basically everything that's dead make a long story short the living Force has the final say so and as a result the what's the weather looking for the Jedi Council of f****** idiots

[@Immastandpat]

I loved this video! Fantabulous!

[@RICHIELUXURY]

this outro never gets old!

[@bloodwolfkoji]

In a sense Qui-Gon is very much like the Jedi of old but at the same time not, he is one to serve the force for the greater good and NOT the republic which is what the ancient Jedi order did, they fought alongside the republic but NEVER directly for it because it really was for the greater good but by the same token Qui-Gon's beliefs and personality I feel would very much be welcomed in the new Jedi Order lead by Luke (if he had survived against Darth Maul that is)

[@zerosysko]

I can see how the Jedi would have thought that by more closely associating themselves with the Republic government they could do more good and have more of an influence for good in the galaxy. Of course, this ultimately made them beholden to the Republic in a way the Sith exploited.

[@SaxualProblems]

Qui-Gon Jinn was right - Anakin did bring balance to the force. When Anakin/Darth Vader was done with the Jedi Purge, overall, there were basically (2) Sith, and (2) Jedi remaining. That looks like balance to me LOL

Great video qui gone is also my favorite Jedi. Would like to hear and see more about him. I believe it he were on the council of even head master things would be much better for many years.

[@johnmaverick9897]

Honestly, he should have been accepted and made Grand Master. His "hasty" nature was just him showing that he is truly one with the force for he regarded all actions and thoughts towards what the force willed. Then again, this is my opinion. Also, please make a video about Qui-Gon surviving and Obi-Wan surviving as well but Anakin is trained by either Yoda or Mace and as he grew, Anakin, Mace, Yoda, Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon would face the Emperor together. It will really be an amazing battle and story. Thanks and Happy New Year!

[@gabrielcarrasco8414]

When you think about it Yoda was the wisest, yet failed as a jedi serving the senate. Qui Gon's following of the force allowed him to see through things that even the greatest jedi couldn't. The sith learned from their mistakes during Bane's time, yet the jedi remained complacent and were blinded by arrogance.

[@gibbs615]

Gabriel Carrasco Maybe Qui-Gon should've been the main leader of the old jedi order instead of Yoda.

[@EvanMitsakis]

What if the Emperor got to Mustafar while Obi Wan and Vader were still fighting

[@cos0]

Evan Mitsakis My guess is he would have let them battle it out. A sith master is always looking for a stronger apprentice, so if I Obi won, Sidious would try to convince him to become his apprentice. If Obi refused, then Sidious would most likely cut him down then.

[@NormalChannel95]

If Obi Wan Saw Sidious's Ship coming, he would Quickly Dismember Anakin's Limbs and then Get away as fast as possible..

[@thebel89]

Palpatine actually had somekind of knowledge about Snoke. Palpatine sensed something purely evil coming from Unknown Regions before his death. Palpatine built observatory on Jakku, because it serves as waypoint to Unknown Regions. If Palpatine didn't died, he would have eventually traveled to dangerous Unknown Regions to meet the source of this evil. Palpatine was actually scared of this unknown presence, but had to do something to it. Snoke may be the original source of dark side of the force.

[@hasan_z]

Both were too blind to see a fatal backstabbing coming Their overconfidence was their weakness

[@snipedude4953]

With in the Legends universe you could say Palpatine was aware of the Yuuzan Vong.

[@catspaw3092]

Qui-Gon saw favoritism in the Jedi council & the council just turned a blind eye to certain members they didn't want Qui-Gon on the board because he not only didn't take their shit but he called them on their shit as well. I'd say Qui-Gon is cross between a grey jedi & a dark Jedi.

[@teldridge1079]

Good info on Qui Gon, I like him a little more now

[@veryincredulous]

Qui Gon was very much a "live in the moment" character. Although it made him decisive in the immediate future, he may choose something that will do more harm than good with more patience and foresight. On another note, he would have been an amazing general in the clone wars, had he survived.

[@aaronpalmer6136]

Honestly I think jinn would've made a great addition to the council, his experience in so many other things in the field would've given a more balanced view to the council in general

Hence the reason Midichlorians did NOT ruin the force... it was the way the jedi understood it back then. Qui-Gon had a spiritual understanding of the force (When Qui-Gon told Obi-Wan to be mindful of the living force). This is the understanding Yoda came to during his time in exhile on Dagobah & this is what he taught Luke (our first introduction to the force). So i am very certain that by the time the sequel trilogy is complete, we will come to learn a greater aspect of the force.

I'm really hoping that they don't limit themselves to the "good and evil" themes from the other movies and instead focuses on the whole Force.

love you're videos

[@blainecords1251]

Great video

[@corydorton2660]

well in the end Qui-Gon was right the council did a lot of corruption in the Senate to control their actions yes Sidious is had this plan along with his master for years but still it was one of their weaknesses another one he was right about was that they had no experience outside the temple it's quite going to actually had real life experience outside of the Jedi way of life which kind of help him but yeah these weaknesses could cause a lot of Jedi throughout their history gravelle Qui-Gon was not the first to think that the council was wrong if we look at the Old Republic we have many Jedi who thought the council was wrong everyone from Revan to Joey bimbo thought the council was wrong in their actions and finally the main weaknesses of the council was not letting their students learn different skills and different abilities outside the temple if we can see with many other Jedi Masters and knights at new different abilities and skills lived and survived Order 66 but they were able to use those and sorry Star Wars Theory that my writing is so long but Star Wars is one of my favorite fantasy world to escape in and Happy New year i hope you have a great night or day

[@gibbs615]

Cory Dorton I know Qui-Gon would've been very proud of the NEW JEDI ORDER that Luke founded in the legends EU!

[@TheLatiosnlatias02]

@@gibbs615 I wish Qui-Gon and Dooku met Luke

[@DRush76]

Qui-Gon was never that interested in being on the Council in the first damn place. God! This reasoning is stupid!
