Bastila and Anakin

[DAWUSS]

I'm slowly beginning to wonder if there is any similarity in their personalities... Both think they are "holier than thou" because of a certain trait, whether it's mastering the art of Battle Meditation or being the Chosen One.

 

Now, I understand that talking bad about Bastila may result in a temporary ban, but upon looking past the looks, she's about as insecure and whiny as Anakin. And like Anakin, once she falls (or rises) to the dark side (though I have to admit, she does make some sense on the rooftop of the Rakatan Temple), she thinks she's "all that and then some", just like Anakin does when he goes to Mustafar.

Yes Their shared arrogance is the key to their downfall.

[Powerslave]

The most obvious similarity I can find is that both the "Battle Meditation" force power, and being the "Chosen One" that will bring "Balance to the Force", are 2 of the lamest excuses to make a character important and uber-powerful in the SW universe...

I agree

[DarthReliguim]

I'm tempted to believe Bastila's an ancestor of the Skywalker family.

[Pidesco]

They are both horrible characters.

Ah agreed to that. But I reckon Bastila is more like Luke. Theme songs are basically the same for one thing.

[Darth Rexon]

Yeah they are both arrogant.They need better control of their emotions.

[DeathScepter]

That is why my verison of Revan always was her counter balance and reminded of her emotions and her self-control also he was a bit of a tease and a flirt.

[Sionn]

They're both whiny and selfish

I feel that they were just considered important because the jedi worked on them the most and they also took there work and abilities more serious than the other

[Purgatorio]

If personality ,or lack of is hereditary ,Kriea would be Bastilla's maternal Grandmother. :D

 

Chosen one. <_<

 

 

 

 

 

<_< Frelling bosh.

Well I agree with you part-way there. I hated Anakin cause he's just a whiney brat who could have been an awesome Jedi but just turned out to be a punky power hungry puppet. Bastilla on the other hand was, while she shared some very distinct similaritys I admit, I think she had more character. I mean, Anakin didnt get tortured for a week to get him to give in, he was just slowly lulled and lured by Sidious untill he was basicly his puppet anyway.

 

But still I agree, they both were too ****y and too head-strong. Wish I had a chance to try out the Jedi shoes. But I would just as soon not have some ultra uber gift like Anakin or Bastilla, less worry about getting a big head over something that you were given instead of earned.

 

Oh and very interesting observation about the Skywalker liniage thing. Only problem I see with that was that I dont think the Skywalker family was strong with the force till Anakin came along, and he was actually concieved by either Sideious or his master through the force. So as to them being related, I would say its not likely, but you have to admit they do share the same elephant sized head.
