Hate and love are two sides of the same coin. If Anakin would have had his head together in The Duel like he would have fighting anyone else, HE WOULD HAVE WON. Anakin could take Mace out in a heartbeat. As for Sids- Mace DID NOT have him beat! As said above me, Sids was faking it. Look at OBW in that fight. Does it not appear that he is as emotional as Anakin? Anakin is emotional in that he wants to kill his old friend. He really want to do that. OBW doesn't want to do it. He will do what he must. He is a Jedi, so he tries to put aside his feeling. Several places do we see that he can't manage to do that with Anakin. Anakin meant as much to OBW as OBW meant to Anakin. They were both emotional. Anakin is not unbeatable by the time of ROTS. He just thinks so himself. OBW bested him, simple as that. Vader recognizes this by the time of ANH. Have you guys seen that film? he explicitly says that OBW was the master then, the better one, but NOW he IS the master... arrogant prick;) Mace wouldn't even be emotional in his fight with Anakin. In the Mustafar duel, Anakin wouldn't last very long I think. Longer in another duel. Give him one more year unsuited and he would be a serious threat to Windu - but not sooner.

Darth_Froschler posted:The force draw thing between Anakin and Obi-wan was a choice made by Hayden and Ewan. Nick Gillard wanted to show that they had simalur fighting styles, so he showed Hayden and Ewan the first 8 moves that he coriagraphed(spelling i know), and then they got to decide the rest (which was when they missed eachother for the next like 4 seconds, which was awsome by the way!)Then they decided to do a force push at eachother,(again, signifying that they have simalur fighting styles.) So its not like George Lucas or Nick Gillard had anything to do with that part. Hayden and Ewan are trying to do something that looks cool! Again, its just showing that they have the same fighting style, nothing to do with power.
