Could he really have saved Anakin?

No since the OT was made before the prequels.

Qui Gon would've molested him and that would make Anakin not want to be a jedi anymore.

I thought the fanon was that he was a grey jedi, not a gay jedi

Lies, stinking jewish lies

As soon as Anakin turned bad Qui Gon Jinn would've sucked Anakin up into his asshole and kept him locked in there for all eternity. George Lucas said that could've been a potential future were Jinn to survive.

It's not gay if there's a lot of Midi-chlorians.

He would have traded the boy for heroin eventually

He would've seen that he would become vader and then try to murder him in his sleep at night.

I think glorp shitto or snood gluckgluck probably could have if they used the force rape powers displayed in the graphic novel staring the tranny trooper r0p3-f4g

Didnt he order the clones? Wasn't he a sith

The stunning and brave trans jedi would've figured out that Anakin was having gender identity issues which was the real source for all his anger and brooding the whole time so she would be the one to break through his defenses and show him the inner woman inside him and braid his long hair then yoda would perform the sex reassignment surgery on him.

Same. It was gay shit when I was a kid and it's gay shit now.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

OH GOD I FUCKING LOVE THINKING ABOUT STAR WARS I FUCKING LOVE IT THIS STUFF IS EVERYTHING TO ME WHEN JABBA THREW HIS LIGHTSABER INTO EMPEROR BABU FRIK'S GAPING ASSHOLE BEFORE THE WARP DRIVE TOOK THEM TO THE BORG'S HOME PLANET I FARTED AND SHITTED AND CUMMED AND SCREAMED

I always assumed that it was Sidious posing as Jedi Master, but I think the Clone Wars said that it was Dooku.

Yeah, Qui Gon was the father figure Anakin needed. He was a Maverick Jedi who didn't really care about the dogmatic orthodox beliefs of the modern Jedi order, so he would have been a better fit than Obi Wan

Yes. His death is a tragic branch in Anakin's development.

Yeah, Qui Gon would've been a better lover for Anakin.

No because Qui Gon would've died of horrible diarrhea later on.

Qui-Gon as a massive retard who probably should have been booted out of the Jedi Order himself for flagrant insubordination, but at the same time, he would probably have been more empathetic with Anakin's struggles than Obi-Wan and given him more effective emotional support. So it's a toss-up.

No that was Dooku, Qui-Gon's former teacher who was fucking PISSED over his death.

If you think of "jedi" as a faith, then the council is the organised religious expression of that faith. Yoda is the Pope, Mace, Ki-Adi and the rest are the preferiti cardinals, the masters are bishops, the knights are the priests, the padawans and younglings are the congregation.

Qui-Gon had the faith. He believed in "God" (The Force). He so truly, and with all his heart believed in the will of the living Force, that he gave himself over to it. He took his marching orders from the universe beyond, from the very fabric of the cosmos. This sometimes put him at odds with the (((establishment))) of the Jedi. The system, for it to survive, has to be self-serving. It has to serve its best interests. So the Jedi Council ordered the Jedi order to follow the whims and wills of the Republic. The grandmasters got status and privilege and influence, and the Republic protected, favoured, and allowed the continuation of the Jedi order and its practices.

Qui-Gon gave himself over to the Living Force and was granted the gift of eternal life. He was a spiritual man, not a religious man. He believed in the faith, not the system.

No because the jedi council was going to reject anakin either way cause they felt dark force in him since he was a kid

They had to take him in, kill him, or put him in the Prism. Even before knowing that Anakin becomes Vader, the council couldn't risk Anakin becoming some force sensitive wildcard mercenary (at best) or found by Palp a decade sooner.

All star wars fans sound like this to me

can anyone here describe his character without saying what they look like, what kind of costume they wore, or what their profession or role in the movie was? pro tip: you can't

No because if he had lived he would've wound up mating pressing Padme on a nightly basis while Anakin had to listen through the space door and eventually Anakin would've fallen to the dark side out of incel rage.

I feel like this new thing of called the Jedi a bunch of nonces is my punishment for shitting up all the Harry Potter threads with stories about Dumbledore bumming Harry.

Training Anakin was always going to be a mistake

Jedi are supposed to be these unemotional guardians of the peace raised from infancy to be like monks

”let’s take an angry teenager who has a million reasons to hate the world and teach him superpowers.”

instinctively looked at his crotch expecting a piss stain

Glad I'm not the only one.

He should've tried saving the movie he was in.

If I remember right theres an old what-if comic that does exactly that.

At the very least Qui-Gon living and quitting the order to train Anakin on his own keeps Anakin away from Palpatine.
Best case scenario

Qui-Gon quits and trains Anakin in private

Obiwan goes too

manages to keep Dooku from joining up with Palpatine

Palpatine is forced to cause the clone wars either with no apprentice or a vastly subpar apprentice

Same...

theres an old what-if comic that does exactly that

There is not.

Does this mean the pissing is an ultra power move on his part? We simply can't help but stare at his crotch now.

"At last, the jews are no more."

Dayum, Uncle Palpy...

dogmatic orthodox beliefs of the modern Jedi order,

People say this but ever since I rewatched ROTS and hearing Sheev say that to Anakin. It just feels like people say this without really knowing what it means

that's backwards, if anything he's more dogmatic and orthodox. the other jedi have kind of stopped giving a shit and then he's like "JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK LOOK AT THIS MIDICHLORIAN COUNT."

Unknown. However, he was certainly a better fit than the senate bootlicker and council brown noser Obi-Wan. Qui-Gon would've been more focused on the will and the why of the living force. Which would be very important for an initiate arriving too late to be adequately indoctrinated into selflessness.

"But Ani. I, I'm a senator."

Absolutely.

Obi Wan was barely out of being a padawan himself. It was like having a teenager raise a child. He didn't give him structure, they were just friends. Moreover, Obi Wan was concerned with his own training and growth in the Jedi.

Meanwhile, Qui-Gon had already rejected the Jedi way. He didn't care for their politics or even the Light Side / Dark Side debate. He would've been the perfect mentor to help Anakin understand his love for Padme, and give him the parental guidance and growth he needed so he wouldn't be taken in by Sheev.

Light Side / Dark Side debate

There is no debate. Otherwise you are correct.

He was a Maverick Jedi who didn't really care about the dogmatic orthodox beliefs of the modern Jedi order

Neither did anyone else apparently, including Yoda and Dindu. The only one who did care was seemingly Anakin

Qui-Gon: "I don't have anything else, but, credits will do fine."
Watto: "No, they won't."
Qui-Gon: "...Credits WILL do fine."
Watto: "No, they won't!"

Anakin: "You're asking me to do something that is against the Jedi code. Against the Republic, against a mentor and a friend. That's what's out of place here. Why are you asking me to do this?

Obi: "The Council is asking you."

Dindu: "He has control of the Senate and the courts! He's too dangerous to be left alive!"

Anakin: "It's not the Jedi way!"

Jedi abusing the Force's power to lie, to defraud, to murder. It's no small wonder the Force decided to purge itself of nearly all of the Jedi leeching off of it, like a colonic cleanse, bringing balance again. What else could it do? The Jedi were getting out of hand, so the Force set the wheels in motion to have them all party wiped

Watto was a jew not a nigger.
