Not they don't Edited snoopcester Send a noteboard - 11/08/2010 04:21:01 PM
Luke, who has barely trained as a Jedi, wins out against two Sith who have many years of experience with the Force and a galaxy spanning empire at their command.

The Sith appear stronger but they lost in the end to an undertrained whiner:P

Edit:
also, wasn't part of what happened supposed to be down to the Galactic Republic and the Jedis getting complacent?

Why are the Sith always made to seem stronger than the Jedi? Sidious - 11/08/2010 03:19:11 PM 1408 Views
Not to answer your question... yet... but this is misplaced. Jacob - 11/08/2010 03:29:06 PM 976 Views
To make them a scary menace Camilla - 11/08/2010 03:54:50 PM 996 Views
That's exactly what I was going to say *NM* ironclad - 11/08/2010 07:37:00 PM 487 Views
you might even call them.... a "phantom" menace...? *NM* moondog - 12/08/2010 02:10:10 AM 671 Views
ouch. *NM* Camilla - 12/08/2010 10:10:08 AM 518 Views

Precisely. Camilla - 12/08/2010 11:00:31 AM 951 Views
You really have to learn to delete your text body *NM* ironclad - 12/08/2010 02:03:35 PM 623 Views
No Camilla - 12/08/2010 03:39:04 PM 918 Views
This. And "Star Wars" is not really trying to be anything more than a campy space opera. & RugbyPlayingAshaman - 12/08/2010 06:51:48 PM 1178 Views
Maybe it has to do with the rule of two? badassashaman - 11/08/2010 04:04:08 PM 1205 Views
This, and there's no maybe about it. Legolas - 11/08/2010 04:25:45 PM 1032 Views

I'm not talking about prophecies or theory so much as about the story. Legolas - 11/08/2010 05:14:48 PM 965 Views
As I understand it, the prophecy didn't mean that Sidious - 11/08/2010 06:08:20 PM 1081 Views
Exactly *NM* ironclad - 11/08/2010 07:41:40 PM 666 Views
We don't even know what the prophecy was... badassashaman - 11/08/2010 06:22:15 PM 1076 Views
Agreed *NM* Roland00 - 12/08/2010 05:54:06 AM 549 Views
Wrong as it sounds: Balance to the force actually means no dark side practitioners. *NM* Myrdhyn - 11/08/2010 07:27:18 PM 569 Views
Of course, that's completely illogical and *cough* unrealistic. Rebekah - 11/08/2010 07:35:33 PM 877 Views
I'm not arguing that it's dumb, just that that's how it is. Myrdhyn - 12/08/2010 06:45:13 PM 1073 Views
Evil is what throws it out of balance. Why do people persist in thinking it is ever necessary? *NM* Cannoli - 16/08/2010 06:14:29 PM 677 Views
Doesn't sound dumb. I agree w/ you. Plus, the Dark Side .... Bookwyrm - 11/08/2010 05:27:39 PM 1023 Views
Fair enough Sidious - 11/08/2010 06:12:33 PM 1124 Views
I think all of that makes a lot of sense. LadyLorraine - 11/08/2010 10:58:12 PM 920 Views
ßelals Girl - 12/08/2010 01:13:20 AM 967 Views
Why does that make no sense? Legolas - 12/08/2010 01:33:01 AM 1018 Views
It's a good thing they're making an mmorpg Japhy - 12/08/2010 02:29:45 AM 1040 Views
If you bring Expanded Universe in it Roland00 - 12/08/2010 02:37:17 AM 926 Views
It makes sense Roland00 - 12/08/2010 02:51:28 AM 1005 Views
"One to embody power. The other to crave it." Ghavrel - 12/08/2010 07:46:26 AM 817 Views
I think being confident in the Dark Side requires a certain selflessness LadyLorraine - 13/08/2010 03:44:11 AM 1012 Views
Not they don't Edited snoopcester - 11/08/2010 04:21:01 PM 933 Views
there's also a good chance nossy - 12/08/2010 03:26:47 AM 878 Views
The same but different snoopcester - 12/08/2010 09:53:10 PM 993 Views
Yeah. Compare the number of years Jedi had power vs. the Sith. *NM* Ghavrel - 12/08/2010 07:52:44 AM 591 Views
Isn't there a 600-year Sith empire at some point in the books? *NM* Camilla - 12/08/2010 10:09:49 AM 412 Views
Because, without it, there's no tension or danger of the Good Guys losing. Goes for all media. *NM* Zalis - 11/08/2010 05:08:34 PM 542 Views
Fourth wall arguments are stupid. Aemon - 11/08/2010 06:05:22 PM 909 Views
Sorry. Guess I should immerse myself in official SW novels before replying. Zalis - 11/08/2010 10:42:05 PM 937 Views
Nonsense Camilla - 11/08/2010 11:32:19 PM 970 Views
In that case, it's because Lucas is a shitty writer with a risible ethical system. *NM* Ghavrel - 12/08/2010 07:47:26 AM 481 Views
I don't get your question/rant. Shouldn't you be happy the Sith are stronger? considering your name *NM* Bookwyrm - 11/08/2010 05:21:41 PM 609 Views
It's like you know him! *NM* Cannoli - 16/08/2010 06:15:16 PM 478 Views
Three reasons Myrdhyn - 11/08/2010 07:25:34 PM 1056 Views
I have a feeling people have said this, but I'm too tired to look. nossy - 12/08/2010 03:23:23 AM 969 Views
Because Good is dumb. - Dark Helmet. *NM* Tom - 12/08/2010 03:35:03 AM 511 Views
Force stealth wasn't unique to the Sith Roland00 - 12/08/2010 03:54:23 AM 862 Views
Because they fight with all they have, and fight to kill A Deathwatch Guard - 12/08/2010 04:59:26 AM 1025 Views
They aren't. How many times have they actually done things? Ghavrel - 12/08/2010 07:51:23 AM 823 Views
What exactly are you focusing on? MalkierKnight - 12/08/2010 11:01:58 AM 881 Views
It doesn't matter. Ghavrel - 12/08/2010 08:18:19 PM 857 Views
Re: It doesn't matter. MalkierKnight - 13/08/2010 12:22:12 AM 879 Views
That's all true, but my point is simply that the Jedi are in charge more often than the Sith. Ghavrel - 13/08/2010 01:12:38 AM 1004 Views
Because they're more powerful MalkierKnight - 12/08/2010 10:59:45 AM 1089 Views
Force lightning didn't age him. Myrdhyn - 12/08/2010 06:50:44 PM 919 Views
Re: Force lightning didn't age him. MalkierKnight - 12/08/2010 08:02:28 PM 914 Views
No, the Dark Side did actually cause him to deteriorate. Kotagg - 12/08/2010 08:57:41 PM 847 Views
I thought it was something along those lines. *NM* MalkierKnight - 13/08/2010 12:22:45 AM 539 Views
No...no...no. Quicker, easier, more seductive *NM* TaskmasterJack - 13/08/2010 12:16:37 AM 428 Views
because the sith actively seek to become more powerful Foxhead - 14/08/2010 12:47:46 AM 827 Views
Also they exist in tension with each other. Cannoli - 16/08/2010 06:17:05 PM 1115 Views
