Topic: Mace killing Jango

I thought that Jedi where not to kill UNARMED people. Well Mace cut Jango's blaster in half first, then cut our hero's head off. HE IS A SITH!!!!!!! "Jedi don't killing their prisoners, no matter what their crime" -Bastila
And Mace said to Obi-Wan "Bring him here for questioning" MACE IS EVIL!

Re: Mace killing Jango

Jango was no where near unarmed. He still had a blaster, flame thrower, vibro shiv, ect, ect, ect... But even still, it was in the chaos of war and Mace would probably end up dead if he decided to go through a weapons check right then and there.

Re: Mace killing Jango

Mace is dark because he wanted to kill Jango, not cause he needed to. Jango was being trampled, any normal person would be at the very least a mite bit dizzy. And it took a while for Jango to be trampled. If Mace was really so intent on saving Jedi lives instead of murdering Jango, he would have been off saving other Jedi instead of standing around impatiently waiting for Jango to finish being trampled so he can kill him.

Hear Yee, Hear Yee: If Windu did that to anyone else, we would not hate him. If he killed Jar Jar Binks, we would love him, and we would not call him a Sith. We are completely biased. Think about that, I know I will hmm .

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Re: Mace killing Jango

If he killed Jar Jar I'd still say the same thing.

Yes but he killed my hero, so I hate him for it. Just like Darth Maul, he killed Qui-Gon, and I hate him for it.
But DM is pretty cool though.

Re: Mace killing Jango

Mace was leaning dangerously close to the Dark Side. But you also have to remember that they were in the heat of battle and to leave an enemy alive at your back would be a fatal mistake.

It depends on what you mean by, "we". I love Mace, he is one of my favorite Jedi characters. And I agree with Mel. It was in the chaos of war. But to disagree with Miba, who do you think would kill more Jedi? A few battle droids or a Mandalorian super commando? You saw how Jango made rice cakes out of that one Jedi. In 5 seconds, the battle droids might not have even killed 1 Jedi. And in the long run, Jango was more dangerous, because Mace could start protecting Jedi after those 5 seconds were up and Jango was dead. He didn't have to worry about Jango going on Jedi killing raids.

Oh, come on, if it had been Obi-Wan who killed Jango everyone would have a grudge against him and not Mace...

If it had been Obi-Wan I'd be in theropy right now. My second favorite character killing my first favorite character's dad? 0_0 I'm overly thankful that didn't happen.

Re: Mace killing Jango

See they never would have done that, Obi basically embodies goodness. Mace however was supposed to have a sabre style that was very close to using the dark side of the Force. I believe it was mentioned in the novelisation of Ep III.

Re: Mace killing Jango

Yes, I don't think Obi would have killed Mace either. Mace's lightsaber fighting style is Vapaad, which is the Dark Side, basically. You go into the Dark Side to use the fringes of the Dark Side to your own power, and it's hard to come back out of Vapaad.

Re: Mace killing Jango

I hate mace but lets face it he did the smart thing if he left jango alive even without weapons and his hands cuffed he could still kill jedi.

Maybe that's why you never show your face.
This is my face.

Re: Mace killing Jango

Vapaad was a style that treaded -close- to the Dark Side. In reality the only dark thing about it is that its so aggressive. The trick is not to be thrilled by the thought of death and destruction, but of winning. And Mace wasn't Dark Side! It was WAR, you pitiful excuses for Mandos (that's the people sayin Mace is evil; the hate is understandable)! It was a battle, and in battle the strongest warriors are the ones that come out alive. It was a battle of the heroes between Jango and Mace. And Mace won.

Jango Fett was a Mandalorian in every sense of the word. And I think that he would accept this. Certainly he'd hate having to leave his son to fend for himself, and he'd hate the fact he was dead and there was no more butt-kicking to be done, but he wouldn't end up loathing Mace for it and making any 'he's evil' accusations.

As for Obi-Wan, he knew that Jango had his boy to look after... did you notice he didn't fire back on Slave I? Mace didn't. If he had, I have to believe that Mace would have let him go if he could have. All he knew was that Jango Fett tried to have the good Senator assassinated. What would you have done in his place?

Rest well, Jango. We love ya.

Re: Mace killing Jango

Now, now, Mace saw Boba standing there whenever he snuck up on them.  He wasn't that innocent.

LMAO...yeah i hated jar jar binks. what the hell was george lucas thinking? i agree that killing jango was evil not to mention pretty heartless on mace's part. poor little boba, left all alone in the harsh universe to fend for himself.

Re: Mace killing Jango

I don't agree with it either, But Yoda found Mace when he was studying the dark side of the force. Or so I hear.

"As you wish."-Boba Fett

Re: Mace killing Jango

A warrior must know evil so that he can combat it. Otherwise he enters battle ignorantly, and will be crushed. Had the Romans been ignorant of the Celtic style of war, they would have lost the Iceni rebellion and all of England, Ireland, and the surrounding area would still be worshipping Gaea. True, knowing your enemy too well can be dangerous, but a healthy, thorough knowledge is necesary.

Mace is not evil. Just misguided.

"There is no greater good than justice," -Boba Fett

Re: Mace killing Jango

Mace is a fine Jedi, and I admire him above all the others on the council (with the exception, perhaps, of Plo Koon). He is the best swordsman among them, and does what needs to be done as opposed to letting himself be completely blinded by compassion. He deals in justice, and Jango deserved to die.

I for one, praise Mace, both for his performance against Jango (dizzy or not, all's fair in war) and that against Palpatine. He'd have killed the latter as well had Anakin not been a cowardice little emo kid. But mostly, I thank him for ending Jango, whom I hate deeply, and in doing so creating what Boba is today; a cold, logical, justice-driven killer.

Re: Mace killing Jango

Actually, Palpatine had the fight planned out, pretty much. Palpatine was in no danger of dying. He also tells Mace this when he says, "Power, unlimited power." That's like telling Mace that "You think you would have beat me? HA! The Dark Side gives me unlimited power!"

Re: Mace killing Jango

The thing though is Yoda wanted alive Jango for questioning. When he hid out on Geonosis, Yoda's orders weren't suddendly void: he still wanted Jango for questioning. And Mace was RIGHT THERE when Yoda told Obi-Wan that, and chances are the Jedi who went to Geonosis to assist Obi-Wan, including Mace, were reminded of this as well. Mace didn't seem to particularly mind when he killed Jango anyways.
