Jad'en Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 Hahaha... Regardless i was just watching the film again on my PC examing the fight sequence between Sidious & Mace Windu. When Sidious is on the floor beginning for his life, whilst Mace is talking & Anakin is argueing then Sidous grins for a split second & shifts his eyes to dart back between the two. This to me is conclusive that Sidious had no fear at all & therefore must of orchestrated such a situation.
Darth Blivion Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Sidious was prepared to die trying. The Sith had wanted revenge for 1000 years and Sidious like all the Sith befor him was desperate for redemption. Mace may have killed Sidious but Sidious was confident he would sway Anakin to his side because he had a stronger bond to Anakin than Mace. On top of that Sidious had played his trump card (the plaegius trump card that is). Mace would have killed Palpatine - if it wasn't for that pesky kid
Tel Aviv Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Open to interpretation I suppose. Myself? I thought Sidious was holding back, so to speak. He wanted to force Anakin into action, into choosing a path. He clearly wasn't spent, as soon as the choice was made Palps zapped Shaft out of the windu. ... Jesus, that scene was awful to watch. It felt so awkward.
Darth Blivion Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 He was able to zap Mace because Mace had just had his lightsaber arm sliced by Anakin the Jedi.

Calax Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Beware of Obviousman Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
jaguars4ever Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 I always preferred "Captain Obvious" <{POST_SNAPBACK}> "Have no fear - for I am here!"
Calax Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 look for NonSequiter, they have Obviousman. (On his shirt they have Duh crossed out with a no smoking red thingy.) Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Darth Blivion Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Obvious Man's super powers include:- Ability to clarify anything. And you know, you just know he can obliterate anything with his 'obviousness'. (w00t) Not a half bad Super Hero, if you ask me.

Some would say it was more like the ending of his life...but there's never a time like the present to start fresh, eh? ^_^
themadhatter114 Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 I admire your blindness to obvious facts we can see in ROTS movie and read in novelization. There was no faking from Palps side and discussion is over. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Really? Here's the excerpt from the novel, right at the point when Palps was firing lightning at Mace and had him in trouble. Pg. 334 of the hardcover Revenge of the Sith novelization: "Help me! I can't hold on any longer!" The yellow glare from Palpatine's eyes spread outward through his flesh. His skin flowed like oil, as though the muscle beneath was burning away, as though even the bones of his skull were softening, were bending and bulging, deforming from the heat and pressure of his electric hatred. "He is killing me, Anakin! Please, Anaahhh..." Mace's blade bent so close to his face that he was choking on ozone. "Anakin, he's too strong for me...." "Ahhh..." Palpatine's roar above the endless blast of lightning became a fading moan of dispair. The lightning swallowed itself, leaving only the night and the rain, and an old man crumpled to his knees on a slippery ledge. If you will notice, Palpatine was on the brink of destroying Mace, but with Mace pleading with Anakin for help, Palpatine figured Anakin might side with Mace so he goes DIRECTLY from dominating Mace to the point Mace says "Anakin, he's too strong for me...", to becoming that feeble old man. So Nurb, I'd say the novelization does make it quite obvious that Palpatine "gave up" in his fight because he didn't want to risk having Anakin side with Mace at that moment. That excerpt, atleast, definitely points to it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In context, it looks more like those quotes are coming from Palpatine. More context to show that they are coming from Mace Windu, please? This is especially considering that after each quotation is a statement about Palpatine's becoming deformed and that it is Palpatine whose "Ahhh..." becomes a fading moan of despair. Clarification?
alanschu Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Here's a larger exceprt: Palpatine staggered, snarling, but the blistering energy that loured from his hands only intensified. He fed the power with his pain. "Anakin!" Mace called. His voice sounded distant, blurred, ; if it came from the bottom of a well. "Anakin, help me! This is your chance!" He felt Anakin's leap from the office floor to the ledge, felt his approach behind
Lord Satasn Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 How can any body still think that Mace would have won, that is ridiculous
Gabrielle Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 How can any body still think that Mace would have won, that is ridiculous <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's what I think.

" :D - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Gabrielle Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Ridicules that the bald headed man could have won. :ph34r:
213374U Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Well, that's what I think. ^_^ - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Gabrielle Posted July 4, 2005 Posted July 4, 2005 I think he asked Lucas if he could be in it, like a cameo role. But his role became bigger as we all can see.
