1. Maul was a bad @$$ fighter, no one could defeat him one on one, the fact that obi-wan could do it when he was cockie, is proof that he's great, cause no ordinary force can kill him...(just FYI maul is my favorite character)

2. Obi-wan was to worried about anakin to fight with his full, and dooku is a cheating bastard.

and 3. Vader is a bad ass fighter, and obi-wan died on purpose so he could guide luke as a spirit, had be been actauly SLAIN as you are implying, then he would not have been able to speak as a spirit(read "rogue" planet, it explains why qui-gon isnt a spirit)

and FINALY number 4... Which sith are you talking about that luke defeated? Sidious? OH WAIT! vader threw him off a ledge... Vader? wait no, vader turned to the light in the last minut, and luke never actauly beat him, in fact, vader had the advantage till palpy started zapping luke, and made vaders fatherly instincts kick in..

And you DID SAY "accordign to the movies" and luke only faced 2 sith in the movies, niether of which did he destroy.

ANd so, in the end, as the jedi have prevailed, logic would depict that the jedi are stronger...but this is just going by whats in the movies, and what has been presented...

--------------------

next question?

No, seriously, like Entaris said, when have you seen a Sith get killed in one on one combat? The only time in the movies you actually see a jedi do half decent in a fight is when he's using the dark side. For example, obi-wan cut maul's lightsaber after qui-gon was killed, and he attacked in anger. Luke cut off Vader's hand after Vader pissed him off. Until then, Luke was getting his butt kicked.

--------------------

--------------------

I think it matters how you put this, I think Jedi could provell. I mean by going off the movies you limit yourself to around 4 different Sith, while in the Expanded Universe there were many things you could base your own opinion off of.

--------------------

--------------------

Why do you think that?

--------------------

There is no better "side" there are only better people... To judge by a title "jedi" "sith" is ignorant.

Thats like saying in a basketball game black people will alway's beat white people... While according to the NBA's standards that appears true, it is again according to people, personal skills.

Yoda was not evenly matched against dooku, in fact, he far surpassed dooku.

Yoda was a jedi master, now while the title "jedi" means nothing "jedi master" symbolizs the great trek he has undergone to achieve perfect balance in his mind and body. The reason that fight scene is so great, is because yoda has a sever size disadvantage, but his mind is so perfectly alinged with his body, and both are aligned with the force, that in the end, it is as though they were the same size.

Dooku sent lightning at yoda, and yoda stoped it, and not only did he stop it, but he returned it, which basicly said, "The force is a part of me, it cant touch me" which is why dooku resorted to lightsaber combat, he realized the futility of attacking yoda with the force, i mean, look at it, yoda didnt once make a TRUE aggressive force attack on dooku, had he, dooku would have died in an instant.

God i love being me... It is nice when you take starwars to a level that boards on philosphy...

--------------------

--------------------

But, i could be wrong about the statements said, its been a while, so if i am, sorry.

But i think it does...

anyway, ya, thats the word from the Dark Priest...

--------------------

Take Mace v. Jango as an example...

--------------------

You see, there are 2 types of jedi... the kind that die because they thought they shouldnt kill when there life is in danger... and theres yoda, who just kicks everyones @$$ no matter what they could ever try to do against him...

And then there are also 2 types of "sith" there are those losers that call themselves sith, but are really just jedi's that dont want to admit it... And there is Recinis... In the end, we know he would kill all of you, cept gray, i think he has a soft spot for her... *nods* ya, i think so...(i coul dbe mistaken, but theres about 10 pages of well writen roleplaying that say's otherwise... *wistles innocently*)

--------------------

And as for that, i personaly cant think of sith in normal starwars terms anymore, so HA recinis rules, you dont... OH-ya!

But dont forget, there is always the lord of the darkside himself... The master of all evil things, the dude that makes palpatine look like a saint... He is... Barney, the purple dinosour! OHYA! *does a jig* im so clever *laughs*

There is no light or dark side. There just is the Force. It is how it is used which determines its strength and potential. I think, being the natural energy which binds ALL things, as Yoda taught, it is thus obedient to HOW it is used, which then colors whether it is "light" or "dark."

Thus it is not the Force itself which determines the use. It is its use and the strength of the emotion guiding it that determines the force.

Anger and hate are two of the strongest emotions to Man. No wonder when the Force is used for this it is powerful.

Love is also strong... and when a jedi allows himself to die for another, well... no wonder he can return as a guiding spirit.

All in my humble opinion, of course.

He he he... This character is going to be soo fun!!!
