Feminously Gendered Feline Hivemind Thread

Did he not? I don't recall, but I thought he just barely touched it. Or maybe the rock around the lava was hot enough to catch him on fire?

Regardless, he was well on his was to being a piece of charcoal.

Lava ia hot. Very hot. It can set things on fire easily without touching them, if their burning point is low enough or they suffer prolonged exposure. Annakin was set aflame because he was wearing flamable materials, had all the moisture about him evaporated away, and had his temparature raised significantly by a lightsaber. I'm just suprised he stopped burning when he did.

And about killing children- If Annakin walked into the room full of children, who asked for his help, and drew his weapon, stepping forward before the panel moved on, how can't you assume he wasn't killing them? He was killing all the Jedi. They're Jedi.

Yup. But Obi-Wan so should have just finished him

Obiwan didn't kill him because, as he said to Yoda, he couldn't. Anakin was like a brother to him, and he simply didn't have it in him. Character flaw. I agree with you, that he should have killed him. Out of pity, to end his suffering. But Obiwan had a moment of weakness.

While it's a shame, it does allow for continued continuity. Then again, if he had killed Anakin, what would have changed? Vader wouldn't have been around, but Palpatine would still have been Emperor. He'd have gotten himself another apprentice, perhapse elevating Mara Jade to the position, from Emperor's Hand.

Then again, Mara Jade wouldn't have let Luke get away on Bespin... Hmm...

Hm, good point. I thought he'd burn longer too, but I guess they had to make his survival somewhat believeable.

I didn't say he didn't kill them, just that they didn't show it. Then again, it's possible he came up with another idea at the last second. Why kill the younglings whe you can have a bunch of apprentices?

At least the new apprentice wouldn't have been the strongest Jedi ever. And by that point, how many Jedi were left? Where would Palpatine have gotten an apprentice from? It's not like there's an apprentice tree.

So he'd make another apprentice by influencing the midiachlorians, like he made Anakin...

There may be limitations to that ability we don't know. And the grow-up time involved.

Should we be discussing spoilers openly in here?

Well, I'll certainly edit it out if you like.

 

[Knight Otu]

I don't mind, and I've seen the movie already. Other people might mind.

I liked the fact that they reisted the temptation to have him actually fall in the lava.
the survival was at leasst somewhat believable that way.

 

[Jdvn1]

I like that Obiwan won, because he's cooler and not as retarded as Anakin.
