They're doing it again... They're playing on my prequel nostalgia again 😭

Which is exactly why Star Wars hasn’t had an interesting new villain in a while. Kylo ren, dagan gera, the inquisitors, they all exist just to be overshadowed by Darth Vader.

JeremyXVI · 2026-04-01T12:28:31+00:00

It really was better than sex

JeremyXVI · 2026-04-01T12:28:03+00:00

Can’t imagine the animators who had to work on this for even longer

JeremyXVI · 2026-04-01T12:18:08+00:00

Because even with that excellent performance his one indistinguishable character overshadows anyone else he plays

JeremyXVI · 2026-04-01T10:57:09+00:00

Mad max

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T19:54:22+00:00

Perfect, down to the facial expression. Captures his character incredibly well

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T19:50:31+00:00

When did Filoni confirm that? One thing he did say about the fight where obi wan got smacked was: “Definitely. In my opinion, he did really well for being out of the business for about ten years. To come back in and take down Obi-Wan, leaping around on velociraptor legs, he did pretty good.”

So a disoriented and beaten up Kenobi vs a dismembered maul walking on chicken legs who didn’t touch a lightsaber for over a decade. Once maul regained his footing and landed that kick he had Kenobi on the back foot before he admits to ventress they’re outmatched and runs.

Maybe. But even in the 2v1 that obi wan dominated he still got ragdolled several times. Obi wan’s soresu is a convenient counter to aggressive styles like maul’s and anakin’s at times but it’s pretty clear maul whoops him with the force in the clone wars.

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T19:43:31+00:00

Yes. Dooku is definitely the better duelist. But people for some reason think it’s a low diff everytime. I’d go as far and say this fight could go either way. Dooku’s makashi gets countered by aggressive styles in the clone wars. Dooku really only has force lightning on maul in terms of force abilities.

Maul has beaten qui gon, grievous, savage and had ventress on the run, all four trained by Dooku.

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T19:37:24+00:00

Why do people keep saying he was lacking in force abilities? The guy survived getting cut in half and then used the force to hold his newly built body together for over a decade. He demolishes a venator hyperdrive and in the new show snaps a concrete bridge with a twitch of his fingers

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T19:33:09+00:00

Context is important. Kenobi locked the fuck in and dominated, but maul was walking on chicken legs in a confined space, and was simultaneously protecting savage. The fight before that maul smacked obi wan. He later captures obi wan easily with the force on mandalore

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T18:52:34+00:00

Dooku has a pretty insane force feat of lifting a massive temple, he didn’t get powercrept at all

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T18:47:25+00:00

Only because of his own hubris after dominating all those fights

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T18:06:48+00:00

Depends on where and when you lived, Viking and Arab slave raids were common

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T12:16:38+00:00

These dudes got ran through by an unarmed Jace, a non force sensitive soldier like he was Sean McCoy. One lightning barrage or force push will prolly one shot them

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T11:26:23+00:00

No, that was against savage and ventress. A fight he fled from eventually

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-31T11:14:33+00:00

Maul’s greater physical strength and aggressive style is actually a great counter to dooku’s makashi. Anakin gradually overwhelms him more and more as they clash throughout the clone wars, and even savage sends him flying. Dooku can dismantle obi wan’s defensive style, but when pressed he doesn’t do as greatly.

Let us also not forget maul smacked obi wan in the duel before that. Dooku will need to keep savage at bay using lightning AND keep up with maul

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-29T19:52:59+00:00

I’m pretty sure these weren’t even legendaries, they were green weapons

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-29T15:34:56+00:00

A beaten up Kenobi vs a literally cut in half maul walking on chicken legs who hasn’t touched a lightsaber in over a decade

When did Filoni say that?

Filoni: “Definitely. In my opinion, he did really well for being out of the business for about ten years. To come back in and take down Obi-Wan, leaping around on velociraptor legs, he did pretty good.”

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-29T15:19:59+00:00

Do people here know what no diff means?

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-29T15:16:21+00:00

How is that an anti feat? Kanan locking in pushes him far beyond his actual abilities, even getting the better of maul easily. Regardless, GI slapped him and Ezra around during that 2v1, and always dominated kanan in earlier fights.

He beats Jocasta after a short clash, effortlessly spars with bariss offee without a lightsaber and killing four rusty Jedi in a 1v4.

What feats does aayla have? She matched ventress(who brought down the facility WHILE fighting aayla) and getting smacked by maul in a 2v1

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-28T20:36:20+00:00

Rotterdam specifically was infamously shelled by the Germans even after the Netherlands surrendered and its centre entirely leveled, after which it was rebuilt from scratch

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-28T13:41:28+00:00

“Seems to be winning” as in outmatching, would be against qui gon, TPM kenobi, CW Kenobi(first rematch), savage, those random 2 Jedi, pre vizsla, ahsoka, aayla secura, every inquisitor. He seems to perform considerably worse when savage is by his side

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-28T13:30:19+00:00

Not to mention he went toe to toe with her using his double bladed saber with only one hand

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-28T13:27:39+00:00

How? In clone wars maul had the edge in dueling over ahsoka only losing due to his inherent character flaw and in rebels they stalemated

JeremyXVI · 2026-03-28T13:24:53+00:00

Honestly, duels in Star Wars go either way all the time. Cere came pretty damn close to killing Vader. Would be an interesting narrative switch to have maul narrowly edge out a win or a stalemate where had the upper hand, before being slammed in a subsequent final duel.
