Second Opinions
Rand Simberg of Transterrestrial Musings posted this link weeks ago, but I've been too lazy to point it out. Till now. Cause I know you want it. The Jedi Order’s mistakes in dealing with Anakin Skywalker are numerous and damning. First, the Order was aware from the very start that Anakin missed his mother, yet did nothing to free her from slavery, nor did they arrange to keep an eye on her. Don't be shy, there are nits enough for all. My own efforts begin to look amateurish. Perhaps I can redeem my geek reputation by pointing you toward this amusing livejournal entry by Maya. I found it at Brian Tiemann's blog, Peeve Farm. From time to time I'll mention that you should "read the whole thing". This time I really, really mean it. Really. She's very funny. SPOILERS FOLLOW ...it amazes me how much people love it. There was an enormous queue of people who already had tickets but wanted really good seats! Two queues! There's plenty more where that came from, and believe me, I was sorely tempted to post it here. But that would be wrong.
