Theres A Difference Between The Best Star Wars Movie And Your Favorite

There’s a difference between the best Star Wars movie and your favorite

example:

The best is objectively (do not argue) The Empire Strikes Back

My favorite is the dumpster fire of the Phantom menace

Before Qui-Gon Jinn died, he used Ataru and had passed down his mastery to his Padawan, Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Ataru which relies on acrobatics, offense, quick movements, and unpredictability. Ataru which lacks defense, which Qui-Gon Jinn does using.

After Naboo, Obi-Wan Kenobi switches from the lightsaber form Ataru to Soresu.

Soresu is the Endurance form. It is an unpopular form amongst younglings because it is pure defense. They don’t understand how they can win using it. They’re right. You can’t win using Soresu, that’s not why it was made.

It is the form of survival, not winning. It is meant for the user to endure suffering, endless suffering and still stand. A Soresu master will never be struck down for lack of defense.

Obi-Wan Kenobi refuses to leave his Padawan masterless.

WHY DID THEY HAVE TO RUIN HIS CHARACTER!??

me whenenever I remember that disney took legacy character luke 'when given an ultimatum between being a proper jedi and loving my friends, I chose my friends.' 'love brought my father back to the light in the final moments of his life' 'was successful not because I followed the code but bc I followed my heart' skywalker and turned him into a disillusioned and hardened old man who even mark hamill did not recognize, who turned his back on everyone he loved and made the same mistakes as the jedi before him. luke skywalker would not leave the galaxy in a time of crisis (genocidal maniac kylo) unless he was trapped/forced to, would not turn his back on rey even for a moment, and would not force a baby (grogu) to choose between being a jedi and having the love of his father (mando)

Count Dooku is a Shithead, but not for the reason you think:

So count Dooku was Qui-Gon Jinn’s master, but they were estranged because of very different personalities and outlooks, but Jinn was still his kid, so he very obviously cared for him

In fact, Qui-Gon’s death was the catalyst for Dooku leaving the order bc he had lots of critiques of the Jedi order (overly political, ineffective, hypocritical, not true to the code), but after Qui-gon died he was like “why bother?”

Which is my problem. Like sir, your grandchild is still perfectly alive and desperately in need of your help. His master is dead and he now has a traumatized child to raise while extremely traumatized himself. Qui-gon is dead, BUT YOUR GRANDCHILD IS RIGHT THERE?!?

No, instead of belong obi wan and offering support, he just dips
