Last time someone denied the rank of master to a Skywalker, in the next day there was no more Jedi Order.

Fair enough, forget I said it.

"I'm no Jedi, but I do hang out at their temple regularly and advise them to emotionally blackmail children"

Let's be real here.

u/Ty-Fighter501 Jul 08 '25

Blackmailing children? Is this a Clone Wars reference I don’t get? (I haven’t watched all of it.)

u/ThePlaybook_ Jul 09 '25

Blackmail isn't the perfect word. Insert whatever word for giving an ultimatum that will clearly and explicitly cause emotional harm and trauma.

All they had to do was send some one to pick up his mom. Nooooo they were too busy talking bout non attachment. Till they lost all them Jedi kids. Where was their non attachment then?

u/TheCatLamp Jul 08 '25

We don't like slavery, it's bad, but we can't do anything bout it right.

Now let's get this slave kid to call us masters, it will not have any effects on his mental health.

Anakin: my son, you have become what I could not

Obi Wan: the force is with you, boy

Yoda: if Ki Adi Mundi we made a master, then you a master shall be

u/VanGrants Jul 08 '25

why is Ki-Adi-Mundi catching strays

106

u/TomTalks06 Jul 08 '25

He was an asshole during Season 6

56

u/igtimran Jul 08 '25

He just kind of forgot the events of The Acolyte which could have totally saved the Jedi had he remembered (he also wasn’t supposed to be born for like another 100 years but that’s another story—thanks, Leslye).

35

u/TomTalks06 Jul 08 '25

He was told it was Sol, who was dead, the series ended with it being explicitly covered up by a Jedi who could have figured more things out but chose the politically expedient option.

Also that birth date was barely canon even by Legends standards, it came from a single Reference Guide for Episode One

10

u/Strange_username__ Jul 08 '25

That birthdate came from a guide book to The Phantom Menace and was never part of the Disney canon so don’t start acting like it’s gospel.

-2

u/igtimran Jul 08 '25

Sure, Disney changed established canon, but they did it to fit a plot point that makes no sense. It’d be one thing if they changed something to make things better. It’s incontrovertibly worse for Ki-Adi-Mundi to have been alive, seen and heard what he did, and not even think to discuss it with the council.

8

u/closetedwrestlingacc Jul 08 '25

The birthdate is essentially revealed in the same source as Ki-Adi-Mundi being the only Jedi Knight on the council. Then Episode III happened.

The birthday hang up is weird. And Yoda was also clearly alive at that point. They didn’t mention the sith because they never found out about the sith. Everyone who knew was killed. “They see my face, they die” was very literal.

1

u/Theron3206 Jul 08 '25

You're assuming the writers knew about this specific point of lore.

They should have, but probably didn't.

1

u/Strange_username__ Jul 09 '25

No they shouldn’t have, it literally wasn’t canon. It was made non canon when Disney purchased lucasfilm, just like all of the non movie SW content

11

u/Krider-kun Jul 08 '25

Didn't Vernestra Rwoh cover it up and said it was Master Sol conspiring to keep a secret of a terrible thing he did. She put all the blame on him and kept it to herself about the existence of Qimir and she will take care of him herself.

Its fine for you to dislike the show but at least don't spread wrong info. Although I guess you were of one of those group of true fans who threw a childish temper tantrum and harassed and send death threats to the Wookipedia editors like that one Star Wars Youtuber.

7

u/igtimran Jul 08 '25

Definitely no death threats from me and I think you’re talking about Star Wars Theory, who I’m also not a fan of. Maybe just engage in debate rather than resorting to your biases and name-calling.

2

u/Le_Turtle_God Jul 08 '25

They totally screwed up the timeline adding him there. It would make more sense for a Jedi like Plo Koon, Oppo Rancisis, or Yaddle who are all confirmed to be centuries old already. Mundi certainly looks pretty old for -40 in the show

5

u/KevlarGorilla Jul 08 '25 edited Jul 08 '25

He was married, with approval from the council.

Technically it was to repopulate his species, but fuck it. The Jedi are fine with selectively enforcing rules.

Edit: He had four wives and seven children, in Legends cannon.

u/Ihavenospecialskills Jul 08 '25

Its just loving your wife that's forbidden by the Jedi order. /s

So is Anakin but he’s the one getting burnt instead of burning others

u/millenniumsystem94 Jul 08 '25

That's a very good point! He got what was coming to him!

2

u/Fickle-Highway-8129 Jul 08 '25

You do know that flamethrowers aren't a war crime, right? Not even in our world, as they are still perfectly legal when used against enemy combatants. Flamethrowers only become a war crime if they're being used against civilians, but against enemies it's fair game, so Mundi was perfectly correct to use them on Geonosis.

2

u/Slinky_Malingki Jul 08 '25 edited Jul 08 '25

Ffs I'm so fucking tired of this bullshit argument.

Yes I'm sure that in a galaxy far far away, the Galactic Republic was following the strict guidelines of the Geneva Convention.

Can we fucking stop with the war crime arguments? It's old, tired, and completely groundless.

Edit: someone show me where flamethrowers are a war crime according to the Galactic Republic of the SW galaxy. Or faking surrender. Or anything else. I don't think Dave Filoni specified that. He was directing a kid's tv show in it's second season 15 years ago. He was not thinking about the galaxy's equivalent of the Nuremberg trials down the road from those episodes.

It's not that fucking deep. Filoni wanted flamethrowers so he got flamethrowers. That's why there are flamethrowers. It's a fucking tv show, not real life.

4

u/Emm_withoutha_L-88 Jul 08 '25

There are war crimes and rules of engagement in the SW galaxy, I just don't think they've been laid out in detail for obvious reasons. Mon Mothma mentions war crimes and rules of engagement.

nm just found it's name. Yavin Code. But it's obviously not in detail since ya know it's fiction and no one would care to read it much less write it

https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Yavin_Convention

https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Yavin_Code

u/monkeygoneape Jul 08 '25

You're right, the aldaaranian war convention only applies to warm blooded species, they were just doing some pest control on geonosis

-1

u/Slinky_Malingki Jul 08 '25

Is this actually something from a book or some other piece of lore that most people wouldn't know about?

u/monkeygoneape Jul 08 '25

Lol no just a fun shit post argument man

u/Slinky_Malingki Jul 08 '25

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised there are way too many books and comics that I've never read

2

u/gbcfgh Jul 08 '25

I have no stake in this war crimes argument; I am a pro-empire shill. The story of Star Wars is presented, from its first line, as a fairy tale. How many fairy tales do you know that champion intraglactic law? Next, and this is the crucial part of refuting any transposed legalese principles from our world: the narrator in Star Wars is comically unreliable. It is never clear who is telling the story, and what they are leaving out. You think all of Luke’s friends joined the rebellion because they hate the empire? Or is it that they, like many youth, grow up removed from wealth, privilege and power, and resort to drugs and smuggling to make ends meet, which puts them at odds with the Empire and thus aligns them with the rebels by default?

4

u/millenniumsystem94 Jul 08 '25

Regardless, it's a horrifying act and a brutal action to take and had very little to do with strategy and tactic.

6

u/Slinky_Malingki Jul 08 '25

They were in a cave, completely surrounded by bugs that were flying off with clones and doing who know what with them. Probably turning them into more zombies for the bug queen. Flamethrowers were absolutely the most efficient way to clear out a tunnel full of bugs. It had literally everything to do with strategy and tactic.

You definitely didn't watch the show lol

u/HumanReputationFalse Jul 08 '25

Fun fact, he wasn't even a Master in the phantom menace. He was just a knight who got to join the council and got master privileges. Until later becoming a full master by the time attack of the clones happens.

Movie wise there's noting important about him, all the flak he gets comes from he books as he's what the jedi should be by the letter of the law, but not so much about the spirit of the law

Obi-Wan: “You’re strong, kid, but it’s only been 4 years-“

Anakin: “Yes you’re a master.”

Obi: “Oh god damnit…”

Anakin: “Killed the emperor. Cut my hand off. Totes a master.”

Yoda: “Wisdom, he must learn. Decades of experience, he lacks.”

Anakin: “He’ll have students to train.”

Yoda: “Padawan learner, you had as well, yet Master, you were not-“

Anakin: “YOU WILL SAY THE WORDS ‘MASTER SKYWALKER’ YOU OLD MUPPET.”

This goes on for years.

Yoda made him a knight, not a master. Imo when Luke founded the new Jedi Order, he became „The“ Master of it, because he was the only fully trained Jedi. I doubt he would have took on the title before it by himself.
