that was his problem
Han is kind of like that in ANH but he never says "FRICK OFF WITH YOUR FAKE 'FORCE' BULLSHIT, GET THE FRICK OUT OF MY SHIP" to Luke or Old Ben. He acts more like a skeptic rather than a full on non-believer.
He was annoyed because he was an officer on a starship that could easily destroy entire planets but there was some weird guy in a black suit hanging around who acted like he was better because he could do comparatively minor things like levitate stuff and choke one person at a time. And Vader had, indeed, failed to retrieve the stolen plans.
Motti didn't think that the Force literally didn't exist or that the Jedi had never existed, he just had never seen any reason to believe that the Force was capable of doing anything more impressive than let people swing their swords around really precisely, choke a guy every now and then, and maybe occasionally force stupid people to do things they didn't want to (which being able to blow up their home planets works pretty well at too).
What proves Motti even more right is that Vader ultimately turned on the Empire.
>He was annoyed because he was an officer on a starship that could easily destroy entire planets
No he was annoyed that Vader's actions was giving more support to the rebels without getting any results and didn't think much of the Death Star or the Force. watch the deleted scene.
I honestly preferred A New Hope's take on the Jedi. Even down to the slower choreography.
Also no one in the prequels ever makes a loud weird noise like Obi-Wan does in ANH. You'd think that would get referenced more often since that's the first thing he does in the movie.

I’ve been told the oj light sabers were ment to be much more like heavy saber weapons or even light a japanese spear.
And only in the later movies because a weightless fencing foil.
But maybe that is just something someone made up
Lucas really fricked up the Clone Wars. The Jedi should have been an organization operating in the shadows where even people at the time questioned whether or not they exist. But in the PT they were pretty much secret police "Jedi business, move along".
He was in a series whose creator made shit up as he went along, he didn't know that there were basically millions of Jedi running around only 20 years ago because that history hadn't been written yet.
It’s not a college campus though, it’s a temple. Think of it more like vadican city (population 900) then ucla. There are not new students coming in every year, but live long devotes to studying a religion and practing skills.

The corporal entity will always act by corporal logic, you can’t explain god’s grace to them, even if he saw a miracle or gets choked by magic, he can not engage with something beyond him, even as a thought exercise
needed to touch grass
He's an athiest
He grew out of believing in Jedi, and all that clone war nonsense is so 20 years ago.
Still really enjoy this explanation
Came here to post this.
He didn’t know the power of Shillong kingdu

He wanted to brown nose Tarkin.
bad writing in the prequels
He was right otherwise Vader would have killed him
it's interesting isn't it. there is no character like him in the entire series. just this one guy.

Ohh! Shah of Iran over here!
He was British

There’s a deleted scene where he or Tarkin (can’t remember which) goes on about them putting too much faith in the Death Star.
You cant blame him when they say
>I sense...
and its for something totally normal that anyone can sense. He thought Vader was pretentious.

ESB fundamentally changed the perceived nature of the Jedi by showing us that Oi-Wan lied to Luke
I think everyone wanted to forget Obi-Wan's noise

Man… I fully remember phantom menace being the first time I was ever so let down by a piece of media.
He was in a series whose creator made shit up as he went along, he didn't know that there were basically millions of Jedi running around only 20 years ago because that history hadn't been written yet.
>millions
Is that canon? That seems like a lot
I've heard that Wookiepedia estimates there to be 10,000 Jedi before Order 66, not sure how they estimate that thougheverbeit.
the jedi temple is way too large to only have 10k jedi in it. a college campus serves more than that
It has all their lodgings and tennis courts as well.
Floors 2-99 are the Jedi’s cumdumsterisms, at the rank of master you get an entire floor to yourself of free use stress release races.
It’s not a college campus though, it’s a temple. Think of it more like vadican city (population 900) then ucla. There are not new students coming in every year, but live long devotes to studying a religion and practing skills.
Yes, 6 million Jedi died in the tragedy of Order 66.
