He trained both Obi-Wan and Batman. He is a man who i would fear too.

[StudleyDuderight]

Palpatine feared Qui-Gon because he had a very particular set of skills. Skills that he acquired over a life time that made him a nightmare for people like Palpatine.

[nateriver]

Qui-Gon was more of a "shaman" Jedi. His focus was more on the nonphysical aspect of the force. His vision was so far ahead that the Jedi misinterpreted the current events as a misreading from Qui-Gon.

[zanethurman]

I think Sidious also feared Qui-gonn because of his connection to the living force. If Maul hadn't killed him, Qui-gonn probably would have discovered Sidious much sooner and stopped him.

I want a solo movie about qui gon just because he seems like an interesting character but he was only in one movie

[LoneWolf-zvpm]

Obi wan loved Satine because she was mandalorian, people who have jet packs, which are portable high grounds

[anomalousboobs]

I have thought this for years. If Qui-Gon hadn't died, Anakin would not have turned to the dark side. At the very beginning of phantom menace, he says keep your mind in the here and now.. Anakin was so obsessed with his premonitions, that they became self fulfilling.

Learning how badass Qui-Gon really was, helps me to appreciate just how lethal of an assassin Darth Maul must've really been, and how amazing of a duelist Obiwan was.

[MartinKincl]

He feared Qui-Gon would become the father Anakin never had.

[KendrickMegaFan]

Theory: Qui Gon died because Liam Neeson was getting too expensive

[fridaynightnicktoons]

Because he had a specific set of skills

[bobmcconnel]

Qui-Gon was the one that actually presented love, compassion and empathy to young Anakin. Yoda was so afraid of the dark side, he missed the opportunity to truly stop the very thing he participated in.

[TheFirehands]

Darth Maul: So, I kidnapped Qui Gon's daughter...

Sidious: You Kidnapped Liam Neeson's What?!

[Silmerano]

Rey being Qui-Gon jinn's Granddaughter would have been much cooler than her being a Palpatine IMO. A missed opportunity. He could have even had a cameo as a force ghost. Would have been so damn cool.

[aemanny]

for reals I feel like if Qui-gon never died this would be a completely different story.

[InvisibleMan]

Emperror Palprotein vs Qui-Gon Gym.
Now that's a duel I'd like to see.

Because Qui-Gon knows "there's always a bigger fish"

[bitterblossom]

Realistically speaking, Qui-Gon was wiser than both Windu and Yoda, he didn't let the close mindedness of the Jedi council cloud his judgment regarding Anakin, atleast. That open mindedness of Qui-Gon makes him more dangerous than the council as a whole.
