Especially Mace Windu.

Mace is the only one who puts up a fight. The first two just stand there and let themselves be cut down. The third dude parry's a few but then gets done in way to easy.

Anakin is such a gullible fool as well. Mastery of the Dark side must rot the brain.

If I turn to the dark side, I might be able to save it.

I think the entire Jedi council was suffering from brain-rot to be honest, Palpatine might as well have been wearing a T-Shirt with the motto 'I am an evil Sith Lord, how may I help you?' for episodes 2 and 3.

I think my one concern is that what Anakin did when he turned to the Dark side is kinda difficult to dissect, since I considered Mace's solution to the problem of the Emperor to be somewhat 'Dark Side' itself. Yet, when Palpatine had told Anakin that Dooku was 'too dangerous to be left alive', Anakin had taken it at face value, but did not apply the same rules to the situation with Mace and Sideous. So, in a strange way, Anakin turned to the Dark Side by actually following the Jedi code.

[TopAce]

In both cases, Anakin hesitated. Anyway, the Jedi Code does not say 'attack the Jedi Master if he wants to kill a Sith Lord'. It does, however, mention to protect the unarmed and defenceless from harm. But this is not valid in that scene, since Palpatine had Force lightning, which is, from any aspect, a weapon.

[Flipside]

Well, so did Dooku, and yes, Anakin hesitated, but he still did it. And when Mace attacked, he was attacking a foe who was, as far as he was concerned, beaten and exhausted and incapable of fighting back any more. Basically, you either apply the Jedi code to everyone, Sith included, or you are not following the Jedi path. I'm not saying Anakin was right to attack when he should have merely blocked the blow, but nonetheless, Mace was not being a good Jedi at that point

Edit : Oh, and Mace himself had said that the council was to decide the Sith's fate when he first confronted him, but obviously decided to kill him anyway.

[TopAce]

He wanted to stop the Sith menace with that. There would have been nothing wrong about it, especially after seeing three of his fellow Jedi befall to Palpatine in a battle.
The way it happened, he did not stop the Sith menace, he started a new era in it.

[Flipside]

Well, there is something wrong with it, though I can understand why he would want to do it, but if it is Dark for Anakin to kill Dooku for revenge for his arm, then it is also wrong for Mace to kill Sideous for revenge for the Jedi.

Look at Kyle Katarn or even Luke Skywalker, they were excellent Jedi, because they would rather try to redeem than destroy, that is more how I imagined the Jedi to be.

I reckon Yoda's battle was a little poorly ended. Sure Jedi can jump four story's in a single bound, but for some reason they can't survive the fall. =/

[Unknown Target]

Yea, I didn't understand why Yoda just gave up after that. He fell down and then got right back up, why'd he run?

....

What revenge are you talking about? Mace could have killed Palpatine to bring peace.
Anyway, Sidious, not Sideous.

The fall did hurt
