  1. Plagueis was definitely drinking his own kool-aid, then again it's not hard to see why he would think this when his sole purpose was being bred to be the ultimate sith. Also would like to note I and many others would love a part 3 to what if Anakin was trained by Qui-Gon instead of the original time line. Would love to see that completed if you can find the time to go back to it!

  2. Seems Plagueis was VERY different from his successor whom LOVED Sith converts guess Plagueis don't realize that SW Lore an History is FULL of Sith that at one point was Jedi… Hell the ONLY REASON Sith like him ever existed at all is due to there being Jedi that became them.. no wonder vast majority of the Ancient Sith an the Darkside itself hated him.. he was way too full of himself an arrogant even for Sith.

  3. FAlse, agaist MAul he drew on his bound with his master, the connection. This is what it was as proven by Luke that connections are not a draw to the dark side but a draw to a greater connection to the force to protect the ones you care for.

  4. Thinking about that it makes sense Jedi would be more powerful as Sith cause it’s a new power they’ve never used before and they are letting loose all the ties that held em back

  5. Plagueis is wrong when it comes to some sith in the orders history, but he is right on the money when it applies to Kylo Ren. Generally however, I think that Sith Lords like Vader and Malak were good counters to his statements.

  6. "Thirty in a millennium, rather than the tens of thousands fit to be Jedi. Any Sith can feign compassion and self-righteousness, and master the Jedi arts, but only one in a thousand Jedi could ever become a Sith."

  7. I think Darth Plagueis had a very unique view of the Force as well as the Dark Side of the Force, but I do believe that his view is very narrow minded, Jedi that fall to the Dark Side have shown to be rather successful, Revan, Vader, Malak, Exar Kun, Kylo Ren

  8. My own interpretation of his words is that he doesn’t look down on Jedi that become Sith, but specifically those Jedi that did not choose the pursuit of power deliberately.

    Listen carefully to his words. He talks about making excuses and about being upfront one’s desires. It’s about how serious someone is about being a Sith.

    A jedi who says they fell to the dark side is saying it is not their fault, and they are refusing responsibility. And because they are lying to themselves, they won’t fully give themselves over to the dark side.

    However, a Jedi who craves power, and is honest with themselves about it, will actually choose to pursue power. There is less hesitation because they are doing what they really want.

    That’s why it makes sense for him to accept Count Dooku, and why I think he would not like Darth Vader.

  9. I think he is wrong in the sense that it would be possible for someone who was jedi to decide to become a sith because they truly liked and embraced it, not because they have some sob story. However, I think he is right that, if you think you FELL to the dark side, then you are not really IN the dark side. As long as you view it as a FALL, then that means that you will always be partly convinced that it is “wrong” and thus you will always be partly a Jedi. Only when you embrace the dark side out of true devotion and belief will you be truly sith. Vader always viewed his embrace of the dark side as a way to save the ones he loved and then just because he thought he was too bad to turn back “it is too late for me, son” so he never really wanted to be a sith he just wanted the power to save the ones he loved from dying. So Vader kind of proves that if you’re heart isn’t in it, it don’t matter how dark you get, in your heart you’re not a sith. This is why Luke knew he was still good. The grand inquisitor is actually a better example of a Jedi that truly BECAME a sith because he embraced it.
