1. The clones killed more Jedi in the temple than Anakin. He did some, but mostly it was the clones, and the clones also helped Anakin alot when he was fighting Jedi. You cant duel and block bolts at the same time. The only Jedi that you see implied that Anakin kills are the younglings. (plus a few Jedi in hologram form with built up pasts in EU to make them the best jedi ever)

2. The only scene of Shaak Ti we see on film is her being killed by Grievous, and whats on film always beats what is in a book.

There is WAAAY more implied than Anakin killing "just" the younglings. Where do you get your info that the clones killed more Jedi than Ani?
It looks to me like someone just doesn't like Anakin.

So now because the Jedi's are in a hologram and weren't a major part of the movie they don't mean anything?
Alot of the Jedi Purge was IMPLIED. GL got the point across without having to spell everything out. He showed the major Jedi Masters getting blasted and the rest just isn't shown.

Your own words: "What's on film always beats what is in a book."

But in a previous post I stated that we don't see much of Mace Windu except him cutting a Bounty Hunter's head off.
So does your statement apply to Mace too then??

Or are Mace's skills IMPLIED throughout the movie where as ANAKIN'S are not??? thinking Hmmmm.... Double standard.....

i think it would be a good fight. And Obi Wan did not win due to experience. He won because Anakin/Vader was overconfident. Mace is a great fighter, maybe the best of the Jedi. But the fight would have been epic. they both have different styles. But both channel the dark side to a certain extent. I would have loved to have seen it. I mean think about it. Both clearly have a disdain for each other. I always thought Mace looked at Anakin as the step-child he didnt like. He is so skeptical. And sadly this makes me less caring for his character. If I knew someone was always talking down to me, i would be inclined to turn on them too. And to be honest, Obi Wan seems to be the only jedi who believes in Anakin. So I mean, is it jealousy? back on tangent, i don't know who would win. In the Ep 3 game , Anakin handles Mace. now I know that is a game but I would think Anakin would take him. But either way the Emperor was jumping in. So Mace loses.

your giving Mace to much credit hes about at the same level as Dooku, Anakin would take him out in a saber fight quickly.
