Attack of the Amatures: Anakin vs Luke

Post by BlkbrryTheGreat »

Anakin from AOTC vs Luke (end of ESB/ROTJ)

IMO

Anakin in AOTC didn't demonstrate anywhere close to the aptitude that Obi-Wan and Qui-gon did in TPM, or Yoda did in AOTC. But then again, Luke wasn't exactly hot stuff compared to them, even when he did become a Jedi.

I'd give it to luke. He had better control over his emotions and was more dosciplined as well.

Anakin had several years of training by this time, as opposed to the few months of rushed training Luke recieved. I can't think of anything that Anakin did that Luke would have done better.

Anakin is all fancy-schmancy with his moves. He is also whinier and much more hot headed.

"Obi Wan hates me weeoweeowee!"
"I just massacred a whole village weeoweeowee!"

And that is AFTER he has received a lot of training.

Luke at least shut up and listened to his instructor after he was apprenticed.

Anakin. Has the edge in training, and may be a little more talented naturally.

However, I think uber-Luke from the EU could deal with Anakin.

Voted for Luke beacuse Luke had better control of his emotion and would not open itself for the enemy like Anakin did trought out EP2

Anakin lasted 10 seconds against a Sith Lord.

Luke lasted 10 minutes against a Sith Lord.

Luke wins hands down.

How about this:

Anakin got zapped by lightning once and was down for several minutes.

Luke was zapped over and over and got up almost immediately.

All Anakin would have to do is point out how he is Luke's father again, and Luke would be reduced to tears once more.

Or perhaps he could describe how much of a hot piece of ass Luke's mother was.
