[QUOTE="Ristamar, post: 195200, member: 1207"] Commenting on some posts from the other thread... Certainly a possibility, though considering how powerful Sidious is, it wouldn't be hard to fathom that he has some way of masking his presence among the Jedi as long as he doesn't blatantly use the Force (especially Dark Side powers) while they are near. That was my initial reaction, as well, but then I changed my mind. I believe it might have been Dooku that placed the order under the guise of Master Sifo-Dyas, since Jango specifically mentioned a man named Tyranus hired him for the cloning job, not Master Sifo-Dyas (that's the spelling according to the scripts online *shrug*). And at the end of the movie, we learn Dooku's Sith name is Darth Tyranus (or Lord Tyranus). Of course, Dooku seems confused by how the Republic could've amassed such an army during the battle on Geonosis. However, it's likely he was just acting ignorant in front of his supporters so he wouldn't be suspected of treachery. It appears that starting the war was the primary goal of Sidious and Tyranus: COUNT DOOKU -- [i]The Force is with us, my Master.[/i] DARTH SIDIOUS -- [i]Welcome home, Lord Tyranus. You have done well.[/i] COUNT DOOKU -- [i]I bring you good news, my Lord. War has begun.[/i] DARTH SIDIOUS -- [i]Excellent. (smiling) Everything is going as planned.[/i] Well, Vader had already been weakened by his fight with Luke. Plus, he was probably still somewhat in shock since he just had his hand cut off. Palapatine's Force Lighting was also hitting him in the face at point blank range. There's also the fact that Vader was more machine than man. Vader needed that suit to survive. Perhaps the lightning destroyed his life support systems. Oh, and I almost forgot... there's a Force power that lets you basically absorb and dissipate energy, to a certain extent. Luke was probably putting that to use as much as possible. [/QUOTE]
