So who you guys think won? Yoda or Palpatine?

Well, it was actually evident that Palpatine won...

Although it is argued that Yoda was prepared & was kinda of weakened because of the pain and stress of order 66. Mace Windu was a idiot. He shouldβve waited for Yoda & together, they wouldβve kicked Palpβs ass.

Imo Yoda could/would well defeat Palpatine but threw the towel by himself when he realized the damage has already been done to the Jedi order so he chose to admit defeat by running away... Mace is one of the greatest characters in the Star Wars universe and surely not a fool... The movie failed to show a believable demise of the Jedi that tried to arrest Palpatine but I mostly regret about the way Mace Windu met his end...

Mace Windu may be one of the greatest Jedi masters but he lacks good judgment & is partly to blame for Anakinβs turn to the dark side. Plus, heβs hypocrite who has no emotion. I hate that bastard! I wish Anakin killed him. Wouldβve been epic(buts just my opinion on this character).

I sense the taint of the Dark Side in your words... Anyway, the point is that episodes 1, 2 and 3 failed in that they used events and characters in order to create excuses for Anakin to turn to the Dark Side... Everything happened as a believable excuse because that's what the script dictated... That's why we see characters like Mace Windu, Kitt Fisto or Plo Koon being formidable fighters in the Star Wars animated series but serve as mere canon fodder in the movies... Maybe Palpatine wrote the movie scripts...

But Iβm speaking genuinely the truth! Mace never show any signs of character growth(except in novels), was jerk to Anakin and was willing to kill to protect the Jedi order!! And he doesnβt realize that emotions are part of being normal. Thatβs why the old Jedi order failed. Mace Windu was an emotionless monk. Had Anakin died heroically, would he honored at all???? You tell me, Windu fanboy!

This is just Mace's interpretation of the Jedi teachings: no emotional attachments... Ultimately, those old Jedi ways lead the Order to their doom... But again, don't judge him solely by his movie personality... I wouldn't consider myself a Mace Windu fanboy; I rather despise the way many great characters are used in those movies with no regards to their personality/abilities; only there to serve script purposes... For example, I feel the same about Darth Maul's demise in episode 5... To me Star Wars animated serves to make amends for many characters' movie mistreatment... They portray characters like Mace Windu they way they should be portrayed in the movies...

Darth Maul died in episode 1 not 5.

My bad... But you get the point... They returned him in the animated series for a reason...

I love how simple the senate in the background looks. I also love Palpatine's face--he looks inhuman. Great stuff!

That is very nicely done with some nice effects with the sabers and a good feel of motion and combat going on here! Really slick all around! Excellent piece!
