When you realize this is one of the most important fights in all of Star wars. If Qui Gon Survived he would train Anakin, helped him deal with his emotions with his less dogmatic teachings. If Qui Gon had lived Anakin may have created balance long before he eventually did with less death and destruction in between Truly was a Dual of the fates, the fate of Anakin Skywalker
It was qui gon's fate to die so anikin would destroy the empire in episode 6, that"s why he is called the chosen one and that is why it's called duel of the fates
@@hilmirhrafnhjaltason5032 I dont think so, there are quite a few hints that the prophecy didnt have to end with Anakins fall, main one being that Yoda needs to learn to preserve his life enegery in order for thr hope to continue. It was Anakins fate to bring balance, but how he would go about it could vary. Remember, the death of Qui Gon is what ultimately drove Dooku to the darkside which in turn led to the clone wars that saw Anakin and the repuplic fall.
Maul is so methodical here…almost like a machine. He takes Qui-Gon down, then immediately hones in on his next target. No hesitancy whatsoever. Didn’t pause to catch his breath, or celebrate his victory. Just moved right along to his next objective. Creepy.
Lol too bad Anakin says no the Father Son and Daughter force welding family and doesn't bring balance at all and becomes Darth due to his greedy selfish choice of not taking the Father's position...
@@benbobjam3495But he still brought balance back to the Force when he killed Palpatine, fulfilling the prophecy! Of course, that balance only lasted for less than thirty years…But that’s a whole other thing entirely 😂
And if you notice, the last 2-3 swing are very similar to Mauls demise in Rebels as well. But instead of aiming at the blade like Qui Gon, Obi Wan went straight through the handle
I really like Maul's portrayal in the movie. He doesn't waste time speaking or idling, ever. It's like he is an animal, a predator, fully fixated on the kill.
@@axelnilsson5124 Depends on how you'd define it. "A Chosen One shall come, born of no father, and through him will ultimate balance in the Force be restored.", Luke met his father in the end. Anakin never did. And it was Anakin who finished off Palpatine in the end. I'm not even going to waste my breath on the new Trilogy. Them bringing back Palpatine and tarnishing the story just because they have the legal right to do so doesn't mean a reasonable person has to agree with it to be honest.
@@wevegottrouble5891 was that how it was said? Because I only remember details of the prophecy being said such as the chosen one would destroy the sith and bring balance to the force
I cant imagine how hard it must have been for Obi wan. That was basically his father who died, in his arms, and instead of some kind and loving words about how Kenobi had been a good padawan or something all he gets is "promise me you'll train the boy", the boy who Qui gon had wanted to replace Obi wan with when Kenovi was still Jinns padawan. And still Kenobi does train the boy, takes care of him and loves him. Imo Kenobi had the worst life of all
It shows the Jedi way right here truly, sometimes things are bigger then yourself, someone at peace with themselves and other would see this and not see the lack of love for him, I’m sure kenobi wasn’t his first padawan

It's pretty insane how darth maul survived this. Considering Lightsabers cauterize wounds and it probably didn't slice any vital organs, its pretty believable that he would survive. He lived on a junk planet for 10 years slowly going insane, too angry to die.
Its sad cause no one wanted to choose obiwan as an apprentice cause he was not that strong with the force and was going to work as an agricultural force user but quigon took him in believing in him and that definitely took a toll on obiwan as the one person who believed in him dying in front of him

Obi Wan very nearly joined the dark side in this scene. He was quite right to be upset and angry Maul slayed his master but he let his emotions get the better of him and he acted very aggressive towards Maul. But he managed to calm himself and took down Maul by surprise not hatred.
Nah, Obi wan was in control of himself. He steadies himself and comes out aggressively because its the only course of action he has available. A focused, persistent assault is not inherently evil or touching on the dark side. Obi was playing to kill because he had to. Look at his expression during the fight, it's not the furrowed brow and anger we see with Anakin.
The Problem With The Jedi Council Is That They Rejected Their Emotions Which Let Them Into Darkness Luke Proves This When He Brought Anakin Back To The Lightside Of The Force
....cuz there's a Jar Jar gag in the time between Jinn gets stabbed and his last words. This video's poster took it out, he can't fool me, lol not sure how he is fooling anyone. It sticks out like a goiter. Biggest failing of this movie was that it did not take the death of one of it's coolest characters the least bit seriously.
I have two theories of why Qui-Gon had trusted Anakin to Obi-Wan. First and more obvious, no one would have taken Anakin, he was considered as an outsider, because he didn't corresponding to what they believed as the Chosen One. If he hadn't, Palpatine would, he had already been informed about a boy with extraordinary power in him, therefore he would have presented himself as the one who could take the boy under his supervision. Qui-Gon probably knew that others will seek for Anakin and he wanted him to remain with the Jedi. So only Obi-Wan could make sure that Anakin will be trained as a Jedi. Secondly, Obi-Wan came close to the Dark Side of the Force during his fight with Maul, he let his anger and hatred to arm his hand, until the moment he calmed himself. So the reason Qui-Gon gave Anakin to his apprentice was because he knew that only Anakin could prevent a possible turn of Obi-Wan to the Dark Side. What actually keep Obi-Wan from breaking apart was a purpose, he had to protect Anakin and then he had to protect Anakin's children.
Which is why i love obi wan,his responsibility and his dicipline and his sheer willpower to do what's right is unbelievable strong.even after seeing anakin's turn to the dark side he still chose to protect luke because of his Master's words and look at how successful his hard work has been now. As you see, in ROTJ Obi wan wanted luke to kill Vader because he believed anakin was already gone but luke persist to bring his father back into light and he succeeded in doing so. Obi wan is a legend and a freaking masterpiece George Lucas have created
All of this. And what’s extra sad is that Anakin gave Obi-Wan the purpose and drive he needed, but there was nothing Obi-Wan could have done to be what Anakin needed in return. So he had to live the rest of his days knowing that, in a way, his own salvation came at the cost of his best friend’s fall and all that ensued. No wonder he aged 50 years in 10 - that kind weight would take a hard toll on anyone.
@@zeyphrenn What do you mean "barely being touched"? There's plenty of scenes in Clone Wars that are actually quite graphic, that show lightsabers going straight through people's chests or vital body organs. Sabine was hit just to the left side below of her liver and lungs. She would not have instantly died from that, only if she wasn't treated fairly quickly would she have. It took Ahsoka literally less than 5 minutes to get to the tower. She could have easily took a wounded Sabine onboard her ship, drove to the city, and had her treated and saved her life. Qui Gon was hit in the literal centre of his intestines, and laid there for quite a few minutes. And even if he survived a little bit longer, he likely wouldn't have received any medical aid within the timeframe to save his life. Stop acting like lightsabers are inconsistent. They aren't, what's inconsistent is the sequels introducing force healing for Rey as if she could just do it all along, with very small amounts of training.
@@mackliniusthe1st467you do know how perdus the sabers are right? Like they are literally used to cut open metal walls, it burns like a magma, there is no way Sabine would’ve have survived that and just be ok in like a day
@@mackliniusthe1st467 I disagree but to go with your logic then lightsaber fights are now just boring when they have no threat or tension because being stabbed means nothing now.
best portrayal of a light saber in the movies was when obi wan was cutting through the door in the third movie. perfect example of how lethal light sabers really are.
This is the best lightsaber duel of the whole prequel trilogy, imo. The acrobatics feel just right and flow within the fight. I feel like Kenobi and Maul are actually trying to strike fatal blows against each other and not just the incessant baton twirling in the latter 2 prequels movies.
Well the actor playing Maul is a professional Martial Artist and not even really an actor. Casting him as Maul was the best casting choice Lucas made. The difference really shows. Episode II's duel was ok with Dooku, Episode III was as you put it just baton twirling.
@@bardgold4553 yea I’m trying for mma and do spin kicks and stuff I hope to be a famous mma fighter and then hopefully be in a Star Wars movie where they actually have people that can do cool moves and are actually athletic
I’m coming back to this because of Kenobi, and WOW that fight between Maul and Kenobi is incredible. Obi Wan literally runs through the doors and attacks Maul, into barrages of blows and parries I couldn’t keep track of. It makes the fights feel like an art form, raw and beautiful. Anyways, back to watching Star Wars.
And they actually implement real martial arts and kicks in these films compared to the gay new movies that came out where they swing light sabers like baseball bats
That moment when qui gon dies and the music transitions is such a powerful moment. The song conveys the feeling of tragedy that just happened. This one death changed the course of history in such an inconceivable way. Gob bless john williams and his wonderful score.
anakin would have been a true Jedi instead of a lapdog to the senate And palpatine would have been exposed by Qui gon. the music and death showed that Qui gon was the key to keeping the Jedi order and the chosen one from falling into the siths hands
I think it has to do with the saber cauterizing the flesh and the force keeping them alive because that’s how maul survived of the dark side hatred he had for kenobi
“I was always here, Obi-Wan. You just… weren’t ready to see.” The fact that Liam Neeson still looks and sounds like he hasn’t aged a day from 1999 in TPM to 2022 in the Kenobi series is just astonishing.
2:27 if Lucas ever wants to make another special edition I’d be cool with hearing Sam Witwer doing a gut wretching scream in Maul’s voice while falling down until his screams fade from ear shot
In every first movie of the 3 trilogies, a mentor/friend is killed while the apprentice/friend witness it and shouts “NO!” IV - Obi Wan dies, Luke shouts No! I - Qui Gon Gin dies, Obi Wan shouts No! VII - Han Solo dies, Chewie & Ray shout No!
theres so many great things about this scene. the Look of dread on Qui Gon's face when he was stabbed. not even being in pain, more just being shocked he was defeated. the scream from Obi wan, the fast parries and blocks from Obi and Maul dueling. its all just so perfect
I love the reflection of Qui-Gon's death in Maul's one (in Rebels), they both had a last breath in the arms of Obi-Wan, their last thoughts were both dedicated to the fate of the chosen one, both destiny remains then on Obi-Wan's duty, but their will is opposed, and you can see it on each position in Obi-Wan's arms. Still, Obi-Wan is in the center of such fates, and it's a heavy responsibility to carry.
Can anybody else hear that there IS music or some sound effect that is incredibly cool, when obi wan is fight maul one on one after qui gon dies it’s very vague, but i’d love to hear it on a track.
what really makes this fight special is that it determined anakin's fate if qui gon had lived he would have trained anakin properly & helped him deal with the loss of the ones he cares about ,and truly teach him how a real jedi should be , the jedi would live in peace and harmony if darth maul won he would have given anakin to the palpatine and anakin would be forced to obey him so that palpatine won't kill his mother ( shmi skywalker ) they would eventually crush the jedi and the sith would win.... but here it's an interesting result , obi wan wasn't ready to teach anakin properly nor be there for anakin when he needed him the most , resulting in anakin being closer to the dark side eventually killing all the jedi for a person he loved but there was still good in anakin and that made him turn on sidious and kill him , no side wins both of them destroyed by anakin because I think both of them didn't use the force the way it was intended to be used , the jedi had served the will of the republic not the will of the force they fought in wars despite saying that they are peacekeepers and the sith are always bending the force to their will so, the force spawned it's chosen one to wipe them all out... in the end luke is the last jedi and he will rebuild the jedi the right way this time.
@@kiritossj1002 I do not suppose their chief ire was against the story of the prequels, but rather the corny lines, some of which, upon greater reflection, seem sensible in the context. Social media was not remotely as potent back then, with Sixdegrees, I think, being the only platform. I also think not too many in the fandom hated on Jake Lloyd; it was the influential commentariat and students at his own school. In my understanding, the Star Wars fandom is nowhere near as steadfastly unified in its opinions, or as much of a tidal immensity, as the Tolkien fandom, but the negative assessments thereof seem to be exaggerated.
0:40 back when getting stabbed was actually serious shit in star wars ( i love the ahsoka show so far but why did sabine have to get stabbed and then just walk it off? Shin could have at least cut her like dooku cut obi wan to beat her)
Maybe The Grand Inquisitor and Reva learned the power of cheating death as Darth Plagueis had done so and Anakin wanted to. Remember, this power cannot be learned by a Jedi.
Maul: *Stabs Qui-Gon* Qui-Gon: *Still alive* Maul: WHAT? NOOOOOOOOO! Meanwhile halfway across the galaxy... Qui-Gon: *Force projecting and dies* *Written and directed by RIAN JOHNSON*
Something that I find scary about this sequence: Up to this point Qui Gon was holding his own against Maul. As soon as Obi Wan was trapped, the tables turn, and you can see Qui Gon begin to back away from the now superior and faster opponent. This is a side that Darth Maul had been hiding until both jedi were separated. It's sad and scary to see Qui Gon trying to keep up with Darth Maul's speed.
The best thing about it is that in their final duel Obi actually cuts through Maul's torso again But since Maul's hatred wasn't rlly as strong he basically just accepted his fate
Remarkable that one mans death changed the course of galactic history forever… Seriously though both Legends and Canon… The rest of galactic history was changed forever
Recent lightsaber duels show to us that if Qui Gon had gotten timely intervention he might have survived. Sadly he was left for too long and could only hand the job off to Obi Wan.
I'm only realizing now that when Qui Gon sits down and closes his eyes in this clip, is he gathering himself and meditating for The Force. Strange when he is killed his body doesn't disappear like Obi-Wan and Yoda do when they die.
Obi Wan: “Watches his master die against a Sith Lord without doing anything” Darth Maul: “Watches his brother die against a Sith Lord without doing anything” Also, notice how Darth Maul tried to do the same tactic as to what he did against Qui Gon? He basically tries to knock Obi Wan and then impale him.

Anakin Skywalker in the 3rd one tried to do the flip obi wan did and that why he said do try it and I like seeing this knowing that.
Woah, I never noticed that. Good catch.
@@brianwessel7069 obi wan did teach him everything he knew and that was probably one of the moves he showed him.

1:03 The best lightsaber dual fight ever in Star Wars!!!
Those first 12 seconds is some of the best lightsaber choreography in the entire series
True that! You can really feel the anger and intensity in it.
fun fact: that footage is actually slowed down
I don't know why but this scene makes me cry
Because it’s actually a decent movie
It’s what happens when you have great actors and good score mixed together.
MacGregor's delivery is spot on.
@@maxfieldnuckels9075 also, Qui-Gon carried the entire movie.
....cuz there's a Jar Jar gag in the time between Jinn gets stabbed and his last words. This video's poster took it out, he can't fool me, lol not sure how he is fooling anyone. It sticks out like a goiter. Biggest failing of this movie was that it did not take the death of one of it's coolest characters the least bit seriously.
I have two theories of why Qui-Gon had trusted Anakin to Obi-Wan. First and more obvious, no one would have taken Anakin, he was considered as an outsider, because he didn't corresponding to what they believed as the Chosen One. If he hadn't, Palpatine would, he had already been informed about a boy with extraordinary power in him, therefore he would have presented himself as the one who could take the boy under his supervision. Qui-Gon probably knew that others will seek for Anakin and he wanted him to remain with the Jedi. So only Obi-Wan could make sure that Anakin will be trained as a Jedi. Secondly, Obi-Wan came close to the Dark Side of the Force during his fight with Maul, he let his anger and hatred to arm his hand, until the moment he calmed himself. So the reason Qui-Gon gave Anakin to his apprentice was because he knew that only Anakin could prevent a possible turn of Obi-Wan to the Dark Side. What actually keep Obi-Wan from breaking apart was a purpose, he had to protect Anakin and then he had to protect Anakin's children.
Which is why i love obi wan,his responsibility and his dicipline and his sheer willpower to do what's right is unbelievable strong.even after seeing anakin's turn to the dark side he still chose to protect luke because of his Master's words and look at how successful his hard work has been now. As you see, in ROTJ Obi wan wanted luke to kill Vader because he believed anakin was already gone but luke persist to bring his father back into light and he succeeded in doing so. Obi wan is a legend and a freaking masterpiece George Lucas have created
All of this. And what’s extra sad is that Anakin gave Obi-Wan the purpose and drive he needed, but there was nothing Obi-Wan could have done to be what Anakin needed in return. So he had to live the rest of his days knowing that, in a way, his own salvation came at the cost of his best friend’s fall and all that ensued. No wonder he aged 50 years in 10 - that kind weight would take a hard toll on anyone.
Qui Gon dies but Sabine survive, Saber aren't build well those days.
Tbf qui gon looks like he got stabbed through the lungs and maybe the heart while sabine gets stabbed in the liver area
@@Daft-SFM I agree but even in the clone wars show , people dies instantly after barely being touched by a lightsaber
@@zeyphrenn What do you mean "barely being touched"? There's plenty of scenes in Clone Wars that are actually quite graphic, that show lightsabers going straight through people's chests or vital body organs. Sabine was hit just to the left side below of her liver and lungs. She would not have instantly died from that, only if she wasn't treated fairly quickly would she have. It took Ahsoka literally less than 5 minutes to get to the tower. She could have easily took a wounded Sabine onboard her ship, drove to the city, and had her treated and saved her life.
Qui Gon was hit in the literal centre of his intestines, and laid there for quite a few minutes. And even if he survived a little bit longer, he likely wouldn't have received any medical aid within the timeframe to save his life.
Stop acting like lightsabers are inconsistent. They aren't, what's inconsistent is the sequels introducing force healing for Rey as if she could just do it all along, with very small amounts of training.
@@mackliniusthe1st467you do know how perdus the sabers are right? Like they are literally used to cut open metal walls, it burns like a magma, there is no way Sabine would’ve have survived that and just be ok in like a day
@@mackliniusthe1st467 I disagree but to go with your logic then lightsaber fights are now just boring when they have no threat or tension because being stabbed means nothing now.
2:22 the only time maul blinks
Remember when lightsaber blade to the chest was lethal?
yeah
@@revenant1994 Luke Skywalker is easily the best Jedi, before the sequels happened.
best portrayal of a light saber in the movies was when obi wan was cutting through the door in the third movie. perfect example of how lethal light sabers really are.
Remember when getting sliced in half then falling down a shaft all the way to the planet's core was lethal?
Yeah I remember they still do that depending on where they stabbed. RIP Cere.
Maul was such a cool villain. Obviously doesn’t top sidious or Vader, but he worked in silence which is what made him so badass
In my opinion the saddest death in Star Wars!
No

This is the best lightsaber duel of the whole prequel trilogy, imo. The acrobatics feel just right and flow within the fight. I feel like Kenobi and Maul are actually trying to strike fatal blows against each other and not just the incessant baton twirling in the latter 2 prequels movies.
Well the actor playing Maul is a professional Martial Artist and not even really an actor. Casting him as Maul was the best casting choice Lucas made. The difference really shows. Episode II's duel was ok with Dooku, Episode III was as you put it just baton twirling.

@@aidenog7380 how's it going
I’m coming back to this because of Kenobi, and WOW that fight between Maul and Kenobi is incredible. Obi Wan literally runs through the doors and attacks Maul, into barrages of blows and parries I couldn’t keep track of. It makes the fights feel like an art form, raw and beautiful.
Anyways, back to watching Star Wars.
The fighting is so well done. The moves, the way the lightsabers look, it’s looks so good
And they actually implement real martial arts and kicks in these films compared to the gay new movies that came out where they swing light sabers like baseball bats

That moment when qui gon dies and the music transitions is such a powerful moment. The song conveys the feeling of tragedy that just happened. This one death changed the course of history in such an inconceivable way. Gob bless john williams and his wonderful score.
anakin would have been a true Jedi instead of a lapdog to the senate
And palpatine would have been exposed by Qui gon. the music and death showed that Qui gon was the key to keeping the Jedi order and the chosen one from falling into the siths hands
Imagine being the only Jedi master stabbed to death while everyone can survive a light saber wound these days including darth maul.
At least maul have the excuse of having two hearts
I think it has to do with the saber cauterizing the flesh and the force keeping them alive because that’s how maul survived of the dark side hatred he had for kenobi
0:42 "You're my boy, Qui Gon!"
0:41
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"
I felt that
Click the 0:41 as fast as you can
When your mom spanks you
Luke said that to Obi Wan too when he got killed.
Same
And Rey said that when Han died
Kenobi’s the true master of the low and high ground
This was very emotional.
Back when getting stabbed by a lightsaber meant something
Well what do you think about Cere?
0:40 when you turn from 19 to 20
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
More like 0:41
I felt like that. Now I would give anything to be 20. Not 19, so much, but 20. 20-26.
Even worse from 29-30 lol
...
...don't get me started on that crisis now...
Q_Q
The “yes master” always breaks my heart
“I was always here, Obi-Wan. You just… weren’t ready to see.” The fact that Liam Neeson still looks and sounds like he hasn’t aged a day from 1999 in TPM to 2022 in the Kenobi series is just astonishing.
2:27 if Lucas ever wants to make another special edition I’d be cool with hearing Sam Witwer doing a gut wretching scream in Maul’s voice while falling down until his screams fade from ear shot

This film has a really icy look to it. The work in post, and cameras are so interesting to the eye.
In every first movie of the 3 trilogies, a mentor/friend is killed while the apprentice/friend witness it and shouts “NO!”
IV - Obi Wan dies, Luke shouts No!
I - Qui Gon Gin dies, Obi Wan shouts No!
VII - Han Solo dies, Chewie & Ray shout No!
Sort of like poetry, it's that they rhyme.
theres so many great things about this scene. the Look of dread on Qui Gon's face when he was stabbed. not even being in pain, more just being shocked he was defeated. the scream from Obi wan, the fast parries and blocks from Obi and Maul dueling. its all just so perfect
0:40 I heard Quin's death sound
I heard it too
U'ha'a
So did I.
Me too
Just coming here to check on something after Sabine got a similar wound and survived. Don't mind me.
Its the man, myth, legend himself
2:28 you can see maul is still alive here when he falls. His face is still moving. An unintentional foreshadow to his return in clone wars
Because In the Star Wars comic he manages to survive and climb up
@@huskyboydudegaming I'm referring to clone wars
@@andrewdominate yea that’s why he survived but I also seen him the movie solo a Star Wars story
Cause the force I guess... stupidity
bro he's dead as fuck
I love the reflection of Qui-Gon's death in Maul's one (in Rebels), they both had a last breath in the arms of Obi-Wan, their last thoughts were both dedicated to the fate of the chosen one, both destiny remains then on Obi-Wan's duty, but their will is opposed, and you can see it on each position in Obi-Wan's arms. Still, Obi-Wan is in the center of such fates, and it's a heavy responsibility to carry.
Best fight scene in Star Wars history
Who’s here after ahsoka
me, this is back when lightsabers did stuff
@@zaccessoryand they still do depending on the writing. Heck the game Jedi Survivor did it right.
Can anybody else hear that there IS music or some sound effect that is incredibly cool, when obi wan is fight maul one on one after qui gon dies it’s very vague, but i’d love to hear it on a track.
what really makes this fight special is that it determined anakin's fate
if qui gon had lived he would have trained anakin properly & helped him deal with the loss of the ones he cares about ,and truly teach him how a real jedi should be , the jedi would live in peace and harmony
if darth maul won he would have given anakin to the palpatine and anakin would be forced to obey him so that palpatine won't kill his mother ( shmi skywalker )
they would eventually crush the jedi and the sith would win....
but here it's an interesting result , obi wan wasn't ready to teach anakin properly nor be there for anakin when he needed him the most , resulting in anakin being closer to the dark side eventually killing all the jedi for a person he loved but there was still good in anakin and that made him turn on sidious and kill him , no side wins both of them destroyed by anakin because I think both of them didn't use the force the way it was intended to be used , the jedi had served the will of the republic not the will of the force they fought in wars despite saying that they are peacekeepers and the sith are always bending the force to their will so, the force spawned it's chosen one to wipe them all out... in the end luke is the last jedi and he will rebuild the jedi the right way this time.
This is and always will be the most impactful movie death scene for me. I'm heartbroken no matter how many times I watch it
"Death of Maul"
Clone Wars and Rebels: Are you sure about that?
Qui Gonn seems like the only compassionate Jedi imo
Prequel fans: were you killed?
Maul: sadly yes... but I lived!
Tales of the Jedi makes this even more sadder.
Til this day Qui Gon Jinn’s death still makes me cry. He will always be my favorite Jedi in the Star Wars franchise.
0:44 I love how the minute mauls finished with qui gon he's just like "aight, who's next?"
You mean he’s like. “You’re next padawan.”
**accidentally said shut up to mom**
Mom: 0:40
My brain: 0:42
Can we just take a moment to realize that if Qui Gon didn't died we wouldn't had the Star Wars series.
No,we would hv had an alternate one like WHAT IF....👍🏻
Gosh I love Obi-Wan just bouncing waiting for the barrier to shut off so he can tear into Maul, like a bull waiting to come out of the chute.
23 years later we would finally see the return of Qui Gon.
Saddest part of the phantom menace I wish Qui-gon wasn’t only in the first movie he deserved so much more screen time RIP😢
Back in the day when Star Wars meant something to sad to see what it has actually become !
You wanna go grab the Infinity Stones and erase Disney from existence?
@@sonicalltheway8179 yes
Bro nobody liked TPM when it came out, I'm not saying that the sequels aren't shit but star wars really has a difficult fandom
Only the sequels are bad.
@@kiritossj1002 I do not suppose their chief ire was against the story of the prequels, but rather the corny lines, some of which, upon greater reflection, seem sensible in the context. Social media was not remotely as potent back then, with Sixdegrees, I think, being the only platform. I also think not too many in the fandom hated on Jake Lloyd; it was the influential commentariat and students at his own school. In my understanding, the Star Wars fandom is nowhere near as steadfastly unified in its opinions, or as much of a tidal immensity, as the Tolkien fandom, but the negative assessments thereof seem to be exaggerated.
One guy with a .22 rifle could have ruled this galaxy.
0:40 back when getting stabbed was actually serious shit in star wars ( i love the ahsoka show so far but why did sabine have to get stabbed and then just walk it off? Shin could have at least cut her like dooku cut obi wan to beat her)
I take it as Sabine got help immediately after getting stabbed while qui gon was just laying there dying while another fight was happening
The look of anger and initial revenge in obi wan that disappear the moment immediately later, is wonderful
In the Obi-Wan TV series, the Grand Inquisitor and Reeva get stabbed similarly and they survive. Qui Gon's force ghost probably feels silly now.
Maybe The Grand Inquisitor and Reva learned the power of cheating death as Darth Plagueis had done so and Anakin wanted to. Remember, this power cannot be learned by a Jedi.
Love how Maul just walks back and forth, like a predatory creature eyeing his next meal.
Maul: *Stabs Qui-Gon*
Qui-Gon: *Still alive*
Maul: WHAT? NOOOOOOOOO!
Meanwhile halfway across the galaxy...
Qui-Gon: *Force projecting and dies*
*Written and directed by RIAN JOHNSON*
Something that I find scary about this sequence: Up to this point Qui Gon was holding his own against Maul. As soon as Obi Wan was trapped, the tables turn, and you can see Qui Gon begin to back away from the now superior and faster opponent. This is a side that Darth Maul had been hiding until both jedi were separated. It's sad and scary to see Qui Gon trying to keep up with Darth Maul's speed.
Qui-Gon Jinn was so wise
The best thing about it is that in their final duel
Obi actually cuts through Maul's torso again
But since Maul's hatred wasn't rlly as strong he basically just accepted his fate
Remarkable that one mans death changed the course of galactic history forever…
Seriously though both Legends and Canon…
The rest of galactic history was changed forever
Recent lightsaber duels show to us that if Qui Gon had gotten timely intervention he might have survived. Sadly he was left for too long and could only hand the job off to Obi Wan.
“It’s over Maul I have the low ground”
2:03 damn even when obi had the low ground, he still won 😅
He jumped over him giving him temporary high ground
First Liam's death scene in a movie ever
One of the best fights in the entire franchise. Ray Parks is AMAZING!
Who’s here after the Obi wan finale?
Me
The death that made everyone emotional after they know what became of Anakin.
2:45, the great music starts.
"It's over Obi wan I have the high ground, oh that wasn't supposed to happen"
Arguably the most beloved character: dies honorably impaled through the chest with a lightsaber.
Female force user: Tis but a scratch.
"most beloved character"
You mean by people who think the crap prequels are equal to the original classic trilogy, not the rest of us.
I'm only realizing now that when Qui Gon sits down and closes his eyes in this clip, is he gathering himself and meditating for The Force.
Strange when he is killed his body doesn't disappear like Obi-Wan and Yoda do when they die.
Crazy to think dooku was still a Jedi at this time and another one of yodas species existed (besides grogu) before being slayed by dooku.
Qui-Gon: He is the chosen one.
Anakin: I don't think so.
Qui Gon got MAUL-ed to death.
Good joke
2:21 Killed by Maul, killed by his victim's weapon
Obi Wan: “Watches his master die against a Sith Lord without doing anything”
Darth Maul: “Watches his brother die against a Sith Lord without doing anything”
Also, notice how Darth Maul tried to do the same tactic as to what he did against Qui Gon? He basically tries to knock Obi Wan and then impale him.
the death of mual is my favourite musical moment in all of star wars. Such an incredible sound
When qui Gon dies it sounds exactly like the Lego star wars death sound.
Qui Gonn’s death frightened me as a 6 year old. No matter how many times I watched. I knew it was coming but I was nervous anyways.
