>Qui-Gon here. I should inform you that after checking one vendor, I'm certain that there is only one of these spare parts on the entire planet. He doesn't accept credits, and there are probably no moneychangers here either, nor any space taxis for hire like how my very young apprentice will deal with a similar situation in the future. I'll just assume nobody else here will accept credits either. Like if a money transport ship crash-landed here, nobody would care to scavenge its cargo even though you could just casually go to Coruscant or wherever with a hyperdrive and spend or change the credits there. Yeah so I've bet the queen's ship, I mean our ship on a podrace, and more specifically betting it all on this kid we just met, and who hasn't even finished a race before. If he wins, we get the part we need and I also get to keep the kid. If he loses he'll probably also die in the race so the joke's on the flying tapir jew alien I made the bet with, and who I also tried to swindle with the Force on two separate occasions. This kid is a very good friend. I like him much better than the Council. They're not good friends
Qui-Gon here. I should inform you that after checking one vendor...
Why would these bumpkins be dancing in the street after the Empire fell? If they don't even use credits, they probably don't even notice the Empire.
If Qui-Gon was alright with mindtricking that jew alien to get what he wants why didn't he just try to threaten him? It's no more immoral than controlling someone's mind to get what you want.
Dumber than the casino bight sequence but not by much.
I'm dumbfounded at how many people like Qui Gon, and I like the prequels (minus 90% of TPM) but Qui Gon is utter shite
Nobody to hassle them when they sell space crack
With the collapse of the Imperial Navy a new era of piracy is on the table.
...
the force told him that this was the best course of action you fucking retard
He was charismatic, and less wooden than Mace Windu.
That's because he grabs that piece of shit jar jar by the tongue.
I never liked his haircut but I've grown past that.
But he also brings him on the adventure
this seems retarded until you realize Qui-Gonn can literally see the future and control the outcome of heaps of things, including the dice roll, and if worse comes to worst he can just kill the space jew and take his shit
Gotta disagree - every time you interact with someone in an effort to obtain something, you are essentially manipulating them into doing what you want. There are varying levels of this, from incredibly subtle to blatantly overt, but using a mind trick is just one more form of manipulation.
Resorting to violence is crossing a line.
>no money to buy another ship
>comes from a palace
disagree with this desu, the mystical power of the universe is whispering in his ear, you need that kid. the race serves as a challenge.
they had money
republic dactaris
Using a mind trick is the same as forcing someone to do what you want. It's not just simple manipulation.
>It's not just simple manipulation.
No, it's a very sophisticated form of manipulation that mentally utilizes an energy field which affects all living beings. But it's still manipulative - you could liken it to unknowingly dosing your target with drugs to make them more pliable.
The don't take Republic credits in TPM.
In ANH, they do use Imperial credits, and we see that the Empire has a presence on their planet (there are Stormtroopers about). So yeah, they notice the Empire.
I'm sure someone would have low ball traded them, even if it was bitcoin
he wanted to watch the podkino scenes and hear that sweet sebulba pod noise
probably not because they were outside republic space
shut up with your lies young Snoke
That's my point. I don't see how forcing someone to do something by controlling their mind is any less immoral than just pulling out a lightsaber and threatening them.
>not calling Sheev for help
what was he going to say? no? blow his cover when they tell everyone he won't help?
Revenge of the Sith ends with Yoda saying that Qui-Gon can force ghost to talk to him and Obi.
They don’t fucking show him and explain to Yoda and Obi to watch over Luke.
Instead they have Yoda explain that he can teach Obi to see a force ghost.
Why?
Qui-Gon is the most important character. Without him, the rest of the saga would cease to exist
I didn't mean to imply that it wasn't immoral at all, I just meant that threatening to harm or kill someone crosses from "Could be somewhat justifiable" to "Oh shit nigger what are you doing".
It's not like Qui-Gon was just saying "You will give me the parts for nothing", he was offering money for it.
Liam Neeson is a babe
because #blacklivesmatter
So are you saying that Jews are not loving beings then?
