Due to the amount of serious, argumentative and complex threads about I thought I would lighten the mood. Who do you think is the most stupid person in ROTS? Alternatively, who commits the most foolish act?

But remember the old saying: Who's the more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows it?


Dooku - So naive he didnt realise Sidious would betray him.

Anakin - Where do we start?

Mace Windu - Didn't realise Sidious was feigning weakness.

Yoda - Failed to see Anakin's connection with Padme.

Kenobi - Failed Anakin in his training.

Grievous (and Sepertaists) - Didn't realise the true identity of Sidious.

Clone troopers - Attacked the Invisible Hand whilst The Chancellor was still onboard.

Padme - Travelled to a volcanic planet whilst pregnant to run into the arms of her evil hubby.


Anyone got any other thoughts on stupidy in ROTS?

How about the Seperatists (and Nute Gunray in particular)? They were just pawns in Sideous' plans.

"The war is over! Lord Sidious promised us peace! We only want...AAAHHHH!" happy

I agree Nute was pretty stupid to trust him.

I think its Anakin. He took a Sith lord's word that he could save Padme, when he should know the dark side is notorious for deception. Before joining the dark side, he should have asked for proof that Palpatine can do what he says he can. Saving Padme was originally his top priority, but then he chokes her and causes her death after wrongly thinking that she betrayed him. The smart thing to do would be to get the facts straight before taking drastic action. He takes everything that the Emperor says as gospel, even the Jedi being evil. I would think he could realize that Mace was trying to arrest him and only went in for the kill because Palpatine kept attacking him with lightning and it was obvious that Palpatine would not be taken alive, and would be very difficult to keep in custody with all his powers.

^^^

I think it's just because Palpatine was a mastermind who had planned for a long time.

Grevious was kind of weak and he got killed so quickly.

The 2 clones on Kasshykk who thought they could take Yoda by themselves. I mean they were either brave, suicidal or dumb. And they had guns, and they got perfectly in range of a flip leap lightsaber slash. Did they think he was a Padawan or something? Maybe they got Order 67 "Get owned."

most stupid character? I think people seem to be forgeting that Jar Jar was in this movie, also the buzz droids, I mean seriusly, what's the point, if they just stuck warheads in those missiles then they wouldn't have to worry about dismantling the fighters, cuz they'd just explode when hit by missiles laugh

*on the other hand, if you locked Jar Jar and Buzz Droid in small room, well, that I'd pay to see, they could add that to the deleted scenes list grin

The Battle Droids who tell Anakin to put his hands up when hes in the elevator shaft, if he puts his hands up he plummets down the shaft! Oh and the droids in the elevator just before that who tell them to drop the weapons and then just stand there saying "Roger, roger" to each other before being cut to pieces. Stupid but hilarious all the same.

Stupid but hilarious all the same.

reminds me of the line - "Well if droids could think there would be none of us here would there?".

Those droids are pretty dumb...and hypocrites too:

"You stupid little astro droid!"

They call R2-D2 stupid and looked what happened to them. Lesson learned by the um "combat specialist" droids: Don't insult an astrodroid or it will take its fury out on you.

Besides the ole standby stupid characters, Jar-Jar and 3CPO, Nute Gunray was the most gullible. I dont know if you can call that completely stupid though. The buzz droids were a silly concept, as mentioned a bomb attached to them would be more practical. The super battle droids R2 defeats would get my vote.

I wasnt generally referring to the design of characters but their acts of foolishness in the film.

But its gotta be said, The Maker looked pretty damn silly with that blue face.
