I’m not sure if he knew and was ready, or had just reached a point where he was just always ready. We saw him clash with the council, but we also saw the council and order being played for fools throughout the prequels. I get the impression that’s because they were already tools of the republic first and tools of the force second. Qui-Gon ignored the council when instinct told him to, or found a way to bend the rules, following the force.

[@mattpope1746]

This scene stuck with me after seeing TPM in 1999 because it is a great metaphor for the different approaches to life. We can seethe and rage at life’s unexpected interruptions and frustrations like Maul does, pacing back and forth and futilely probing at the blast shields, or we can accept that which is beyond our control and keep centered, like Qui Gon. Both die shortly after the scene which adds to the metaphor that we will all die but we can choose to live in discontent and bitterness like Maul or harmony and purpose like Qui Gon.

[@walkerx1813]

Actually... (spoilers) Watch the Clone Wars TV show to find out how Maul REALLY dies...

[@cplshujumi]

​@@walkerx1813 Well...fair, but the movie was absolutely shot with the intention of Maul being dead. So the metaphor really still stands as far as the film is concerned.

[@user-pf8ev2ps9b]

Exactly. We can accept that control is an illusion, that pain and loss is a part of life, and live like "cease the day, live in the moment".

Qui Gon is everything a true Jedi should be 🙏 his mind is set on nothing but the will of the Force, for good or bad. He doesnt care for politics or being a warrior/soldier. His very existence is based on being aligned fully to the Force. If the Jedi order were like him, Palpatine would likely have never risen to (unlimited) power...

[@johncraftenworth7847]

No! it's his padawan Obi Wan that exemplified the greatest balance between alignment with the force and duty to humanity. Everyone knows Obi Wan was the greatest example of a Jedi.

[@AlindBack]

@@johncraftenworth7847 Well, I suppose that's really the thing, then. Obi Wan really was the quintessential Jedi, as the Jedi are people that follow a code. They aren't an extension of the Force, not really. Bastions of the light, certainly, but not pawns of the Force. Qui Gon, on the other hand, was that true extension of the Force. He gave himself fully over to the Force, and the Force granted him the ability to live on consciously in it after his body died. I'm sure over the centuries there were many Jedi scholars that argued that what Qui Gon achieved, and how he embodied the will of the Force, was really how the Jedi should have been, but ultimately, what Obi Wan exemplified was what the Jedi chose to be.

[@johncraftenworth7847]

no way qui gon wasn't that snobby he taught Yoda, yoda taught Obi Wan, Obi Wan taught Anakin, the force ghost skill. bc qui gon love and respect all these guys!! @@AlindBack

[@HellfireClub242]

Palpatine himself feared Qui-Gon Jinn. He knew that Qui-Gon was ahead of the Jedi Council. Qui-Gon was more developed and tune within the force. He knew what had to be done. Unlike the jedi council, who were weak and, quite frankly, easily played. If Qui-Gon was part of the council, maybe Palpatine wouldn't succeed. As for Maul, if he fought a Qui-Gon in his prime, he would have lost. Qui-Gon was arguably the greatest jedi ever (second is Luke).

[@DeathScepter]

Palpatine is not stupid. Jedi Council does respect Qui Gon Jinn's opinion for many reasons and wanted him on the Jedi Council, so they can ask more questions. Jedi Council and Qui Gon Jinn disagree each other but respected each other and listen to each other as well.

[@HellfireClub242]

@DeathScepter Never said Palpatine was stupid. And Qui-Gon was never asked to be on the council. The reason being was because of his challenging behaviour. Qui-Gon was defiant at times, albeit respectfully.

Two opposite sides of the mirror

On a side note, I find it fascinating that while Sidious was the culmination of the Rule of 2 Sith, by the time he came about, much of the point of the Rule of 2 had been dropped in favor of the thinking of the Ancient Sith it was meant to replace. By the time of Plagus' master they were once again more focused on personal power and immortality, and after Sidious started the Empire, he too began to seek this and focus on military might. Both things the Rule of 2 tried to remove.

[@accuset]

On top of that, weren't Maul and Dooku around at the same time? Sidius didn't know Maul was alive when Vader came around, but he wasn't exactly sticking to the Rule of 2 himself, anyway.

[@DMBLaan]

@accuset Eh, yes and no. Maul was trained while Sidious was still the apprentice to Plagus, but neither of them considered Maul to be a "true" Sith, seeing him more like the equivalent to an attack dog. And he certainly wasn't considered a Sith after he returned. That said, I do think Maul being trained at all does probably go against the Rule of 2, but I'm not 100% clear on that.

[@ItApproaches]

Qui-Gon will always be the best Jedi as he was what a Jedi was supposed to be. Though that final bit of the fight in Duel Of Fates always made no sense to me, when the shield doors opened, Obi-Wan could have used the force to super run like he and Qui-Gon did at the beginning of the movie...and he would have made it to Qui-Gon in time...Or even though the ray shields are lightsaber proof, the parts on the wall that MAKE the ray shields are NOT, just slash those and the shields would drop lol.

[@juice_man4439]

Everyone mistakes qui gon for being weak as well, being that he only fought maul on screen and lost. In actuality, he was one of the most powerful jedi alive at the time. He was obviously wise and experienced, but he was actually considered to be the second best form IV lightsaber duelist behind only Yoda. I believe in TPM novel maul states that he knows if he makes one wrong move against qui gon, he will die. Maul only wins due to him guiding the duel to a small space which doesn’t work well for qui gons lightsaber form, as well as qui gon getting tired due to age. Qui gon is my favorite character and the most underestimated jedi

[@apocolypse11]

Most powerful yet dies. Tf

[@spotsies]

@@apocolypse11 It makes sense even if you take movie logic out of the question. In elite sports, the best of the best don't differ from one another in orders of magnitude. More often than not the differences are tiny, or depend on specific circumstances. The most powerful weightlifter could be outclassed by a less powerful if he misses a week of exercise, or has some kind of illness. It's not a far stretch to think that a younger sith with some aggressive, not anticipated maneuver could outclass the former best jedi, especially one who's aging.

It’s fascinating.” Jake chuckled, rinsing soap off his arms. “Only you would find that interesting. What did it say?” “Well,” Sam began, “it turns out that hand jobs were a common part of male bonding rituals in some cultures. It was more about camaraderie than sex.” Jake raised an eyebrow. “Really? That’s pretty wild.

I love this idea. Watched a very neat short film called "The Premonition" where a jedi hides her child, knowing a sith is hunting them, and meditates before the battle, learning through the force that she will die. She fights him anyway, at peace with what will be. To all the Andys out there that want to argue lore points, I'm not interested. It happens every time I voice a random thought just for fun on one of these videos. Always comes down to "WELL NO THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN BECAUSE YOU SEE MAUL IS....." - I don't want to hear it. Just a fun thought, what if Qui Gon knew he would die after meditating, but he also knew it was the only way Obi Wan could defeat Maul?

[@TheJediCaptain]

Darth Maul was also riding the high of his first Jedi kill. Padawan Darsha Assant was his first true kill...her Master sacrificed himself to ensure that Darsha, Lorn Pavan, and I-5YQ were able to get to the Temple to alert the Council of the impending Naboo blockade. He felt robbed of the kill of the Master but he was able to take Darsha and this boosted his ego of being the first Jedi he killed. Then he killed Qui-Gon and the high he got from that was his undoing.

So if he had just had more trust and confidence in his master, (like he was trying to teach him) Gin might still be alive?

Maul looks more pissed off and "elder Jedi needs to catch his breath" than terrified imo. Especially when as soon as they come out of it, Maul's kinda toying with him.

Qui gon has high blood pressure and was simply trying to bring it back down.

[@Poketoa]

And all funny memes about lightsaber injuries aside, that’s why he let himself die on Naboo.

[@brettgastelum5330]

Qui Gon, a true Grey Jedi

[@wocathoden]

Did he know that sith gain power from negative emotions like fear? It's like he wanted to get cut in half.

[@iamwhatiam2348]

The only time maul felt fear was when obi wan cut him in half

[@kselz7449]

I always assuming he was preparing himself to be a ghost like Obi and Yoda - Yoda does say he learned the technique from Qui Gon -- and Obi before he fell to vadar did a mediation thing

[@davidsmith7962]

Qui Gon was a great Jedi. If I was in the Jedi Academy… I’d request Qui Gon to be my Master

[@johncraftenworth7847]

I'd request Obi Wan without hesitation

[@Xerion1]

Qui-Gon is my favorite Jedi. He's the total package and challenges the status quo the Jedi simply accept as law.

[@hdvisualartsprojects6759]

I actually met qui gon. Good guy.

[@tylerhamblen2591]

If only the jedi masters would've listened to qui gon instead of pawning him off, and then him finding the chosen one, and the putting the chosen one in positions where the jedi didn't want to hear... oh... younglings died...

[@edwardwright2989]

Yeah he was so scared he beat his ass then killed him.

[@damo7776]

For 25 years. I have waited to fight maul. To face him. Form 7 vs form 7. I will defeat him

[@clonewarsfan777]

I actually always liked to think that Maul was so confident in his abilities he did not fear Qui Gon in that he probably was mocking him in his head and after he killed qui gon his confidence turned to complete arrogance which is why Kenobi defeated him

[@INFJ-ThaneTr]

We need a Qui-Gon Jin prequel

[@ldrgrm-venom_grim-pg3dandm64]

sound

[@shadeofshattered3]

Grievous was just another maul a skillful monster to hammer things down both destroyed by obi wan

[@NorthernLab5]

Qui Gon had more depth, emotional intelligence, wisdom and strength of character in one film than the entire sequel trilogy cast
