1) Yoda- can fight and is wise, he's got it all
never almost got killed or needed some one to save him, of course we didn't see the 1st 800 yrs of his life
2) Obi Won- I think he is under-rated by most, he can pretty much do it all, does get saved by Annakin numerous times though, but takes one for the team by getting struck down by Vador and becoming part of the force that can comunicate w/ Luke, works Anakin over in Lava Land
3) Luke- started late or could be the best, needs Obi Won spirit guiding him, just started to to late, oh what could have been
4) Vador/Annakin- compete head case, no mental capacity at all Palpatine played him like a fiddle
5) Palpatine/Emperor- he's got skills but anyone that choses the dark side can't be ahead of Yoda/Obi/Luke/Annakin, b/c the Dark Side loses.

Honorable Mention- Mace Windu held his own againest Palpatine, but Palpatine was giving a little rope a dope
Most overrated- Dooku Annakin cut his head off in like 2 minutes and the 3 Jedis that went w/ Mace to arrest Palpatine what did they last 30 secondes

I must disagree. Because Evil will always triumph over good, because good is dumb.

Thumbs down to drunk typing.

I liked Qui Gon. Yeah I know he got thrashed by Darth Maul, but his character was cool. I liked how he stood in front of the Jedi Council and agrued with them on Annakin being the chosen one as if to say, "What the f is wrong with you people?" Turns out that he was right.

I also liked Darth Maul's double-sided light saber. It was wicked. The Darth Maul light saber fight scenes were the best in my opinion. Especially when Obi Wan slices him in half.

My friends and I have a running discussion that Qui Gon was the worst Jedi ever. Bar none. Watch Episode 1 again.

He only ever uses the force about twice in the entire movie to push away droids.

Every time Obi-wan says he has a bad feeling, Qui Gon has no idea what he is talking about.

The only time he tries the mindtrick they make fun of him.

Anakin's mom sneaks up on him. He has a whole sensitive conversation about Anakin, and she is standing right there the whole time. He turns around and looks shocked.

He is the first Jedi and only Jedi main character in the series to actually get killed by a lightsaber.

Worst. Jedi. Ever.

(I am officially out of the Star Wars closet)

Bobba Fett would have kicked all thier asses.

DARK HELMET !!!! Hands down.

Come on...Mace Windu. He kicked the emperor's ass. No one else could have done that. If whiney boy hadn't come in and screwed it up, the emperor would be dead and all would be good.

It's Samuel L. No one can be cooler than Samuel L.

It's the purple lightsaber...when you absolutely, positively have to kill every Mutha in the room.

"What does Obi-Wan look like? Does he look like a bitch? Then why you tryin' to f#ck him like a bitch?"

Colonel:

Niiiiiiiice!

Anakin himself acknowledges in Episode II that Mace is the most powerful Jedi, in terms of being a warrior.

That was demonstrated when Mace had Palps beaten - and no, I don't buy the whole Palps rope-a-dope routine.

I'm in the Yoda camp for his leadership. Plus he was small and old but he stood toe-to-toe with everyone he took on.

1)Yoda

1a)Kenobi

*Mace was the best but he was betrayed ...should have sent him with Kenobi

Mace is dead. he can't be above Yoda.

Put Anakin/Vader in the Senate chamber with Palps and Yoda (since Mace lost to Palps and Anakin/Vader), and you'd have a little green carcass.

No wonder Yoda had the munchies so bad when he met Luke in ESB.
