I'm curious, what continuity issue with OT are talking about?



Well Ben says he thought he could train Anakin just as well as Yoda, but Yoda himself lost a padawan to the darkside. Its not exactly a continuity error, but its not exactly cohesive IMHO


Yoda has been training Padawans for approximately 800 years, with one we know of lost to the darkside. (Assuming Dooku doesn't turn back or help the heroes). I would say that is a damn good record. What is that, like 1 in 40? Continuity error, I think not.

Yes but other then AOTC I wouldn't consider any of the SW films to be action films. Adventure films yes, but action films no. And regardless of Mace's ability it difused the drama to have him take out Jango, it would be like Captain america showing up at the end of spiderman to kill GreenGoblin.


Yes, they would make great sense. Obi-Wan takes down Jango, what seems to be a Jedi Master-like feat, and can't stand more then a minute or so with Dooku. Hmmm, perhaps I guess.
