This is What George Lucas Thinks Viewers mostly agree that Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn was right to want to train Anakin Skywalker to be a Jedi Knight. George Lucas, however, has a different opinion on the subject. science fictionMarcel Bojar10 July 2023 Source: Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, George Lucas, Lucasfilm, 1999i The creator of the Star Wars universe, George Lucas believes that Qui-Gon Jinn made a mistake in his decision to train Anakin Skywalker in The Phantom Menace. Many see Qui-Gon as the perfect Jedi, embodying all that is best about the Order, and yet able to openly disagree with the Council's decisions. The Jedi Master, like the rest of the Order's members, was not without flaws.

Lucas claims Qui-Gon and Anakin made similar mistakes. They were spontaneous and reckless, and Obi-Wan Kenobi in both cases, provided them with a sense of balance. Lucas is convinced that Qui-Gon made a mistake in persuading the Jedi Council members to agree to train the young Skywalker. "I think it's clear that he [Qui-Gon - ed. note] was wrong in Episode I and made a dangerous decision that may have ultimately turned out to be the right one. "The Phantom Menace" refers to the dark side of Force that exists in the universe. Anakin will fall to the forces of darkness, which in turn will upset the balance of the Galaxy, but the person who will kill the Emperor is Darth Vader - also Anakin." There is a general belief that the Jedi Council was initially wrong in not accepting Anakin as a student. Lucas, on the other hand, believes, rightly looking at future events, that the Council, by accepting Skywalker for training, made a huge mistake that cost the lives of many Jedi and destroyed the Order. We can only guess how the whole story might have turned out if Anakin had not been accepted into the Jedi Order. Would he have stayed on Naboo? Or would he have returned to Tatooine to help his mother? This is something we will probably never know again.
