adjl 09/25/18 11:33:00 AM #2:	It's pretty obviously hypocritical, but that could be seen as the point, given that one of the biggest problems the Jedi Order had was that they were so far up their own self-righteous ass that they couldn't see that they were resembling the Sith in many ways. But then that would be suggesting that the PT had any sort of narrative subtlety, which is questionable. --- This is my signature.

I mean, the current Jedi council was much closer to Siths than actual Jedis. I mean they werent even on the Jedi side of the spectrum. They did admit they were straying. The hypocrisy and the fall of the Jedi is probably the most interesting part of the PT for me. Anakin's character is a mess but at least acting as a catalyst and a cynic towards the Jedi's negative aspects was interesting. --- Solid Sonic + 2 punch buttons <cite>SolidSonicEX posted [p:909418068] in "Only...
