The Dark Jedi Incursions in Episode III?

Post by Spartan »

From the various sources we know that some of the Jedi, will fall to the dark side during the clone wars, and have to be put down. Will we see this? Will it at least be mentioned?

The idea of Anakin or Palpatine seducing some of the Jedi, to turn on one another. How cool would it be for there to be a mass betrayl of, padawans turing on their masters; ala Exar Kun. There are already plenty on indications that Vader was assisted by other fallen in the Jedi purges. "Black knights" help Vader slay the Jedi holdouts in the Hapes Cluster, numerous hands, darksiders, and grand inquisitors, etc.

Actually when you think about it, the Galaxies chock full of evil force users. Should we even be calling it a purge? :D

if we don't see a ton of dark jedi, it'll be the biggest lucas fuckup since he made jar jar binks and the gungans.

maybe. though it'd be fun to see at least a few other jedi turn to the dark side along with Vader.

Vader is a Sith Lord, and any pissant wannabee jedi with any shades of dark would still be jedi to a Sith, and only worthy of extermination :twisted:

Except for all those Darksider servants of the Sith, huh?

It's anakin's stroy, showing other dark siders would just water it down. Maybe mentioned in passing, like when palpatine explains why the jedi must die say some turned bad during the war, but not that we see.

Yeah...Sidious will use the fact that some jedi will go dark as a reason (the reason?) for the purge. The fact that he'll be the one seducing some (most??, all??) of them will be classic Sidious M.O. :twisted:

I love people that think these movies are like 4-5 hour epics or LOTRish. Lucas has stated that Ep III will be about the same length as his other movies (about 2 hours) Where the hell is he going to find the time to extrapolate on what the fanboys want to see?

I wanna see Thrawn. Wouldn't it roxor if we see a BDZ? It would be awesome if we saw [insert EU character, situation here]

He has to tell the story of the rise of the Empire, the fall of Anakin Skywalker, the secreting away of the Skywalker twins and the final climatic duel with Obi Wan and Anakin. There simply is no room for all this wishful thinking stuff.

Some of that could be included easily enough, nothing says said characters or even would be time consuming.
