Darth Maul: Apprentice (Short Film)

What was so special about Obi-Wan that made him win?

Plot. He was destined to make it to episode 4.

I refuse to believe that, Khaos, lol. NOOOOOOOOOOO!

Determination sometimes needs a bit of a jolt to 'wake up'.

Darth Maul's death looked like just surprise rather then any unique Form... basically just a forward flip from handhold followed by a simple slash - the gymnastics is the most impressive bit. A combination of unexpected move with inadequate resting defence.... Maul was either tired (slow, doubt it), inexperienced (unlikely) or filled with ego (likely) against Obi Wan. The female Apprentice in this vid seemd IMO to be Form III, but slipping back to Form V when getting tired.

I don't think Maul thought it was compassion which he was contemplating, but his Master knew better :lol:

Just respect for a very well made Star Wars fan-film. (The relevancy is the Star Wars forum section that this thread is posted in btw).

(Yes, even I enjoy and like to share some Star Wars fiction from time to time, why not?)

obi-wan's secret?....could it possibly be....love?...in the fiction master and apprentice form a bond, what happens to one can be felt by the other...when qui gon was killed obi-wan was overcome with grief...he had to focus his grief in order to devise a strategy, and summon the strength to stop maul from killing anyone else...think about the stories about mothers being able to do superhuman feats in order to save their children...love....emotion is a powerful tool if you can harness it.

Argh... I hate when "love" is the reason for things. It feels like weaksauce. But you're right xD

lol...believe it or not, i'm not fond of it myself, but only because i have almost no experience with it firsthand, i have witnessed it in others...due to bullies, an abusive childhood, and a lifetime of misfortune i have more firsthand experience using anger/rage/hate than love...but emotion is emotion...and emotion is a powerful tool....

most of the time when i see a couple acting all "lovey dovey" part of me wants to vomit, another part of me wants to smack their heads together....

... because I envy that Joy and yearn for it. (in my case, of course)
