Here's the thing that bugged me..... ok so Yoda, Obi-Wan, Qui Gon and Anakin all know the secret. At the end of ROTJ you see Yoda, Obi and Anakin but no Qui, why not? They changed the ending in the special edition to reflect Anakin, changing to a younger version, why not add in Qui? And why is it that Mace, arguably the strongest of the Jedi, doesn't know?

I just don't like variants for the sake of variants, just like those b&w maquettes.

Isn't there a site that still argue that Mace Windu survived the fall? What about all the other Jedi?

Qui gon didnt now how to bond his physical being to the force over time Yoda and Ben learned it. When Anakin died they help him bond his spirit to the force.

mace didnt know cause no one thought it possible

I would love to see more creature bust & statues i.e: Jabba place, Tatooine cantina, Kaminoan, and all the other Jedi. AT-AT Driver, Hoth Snowtroopers, I could go on all night.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

He was supposed to appear as a blue force ghost in the movie. They filmed it and everything, but it got cut out. The scene where Obi Wan is talking to yoda about "a new discovery", thats what they are talking about.

I remember hearing this bust wasn't going to be produced but I don't ever remember hearing why. Just like the Glow-Worm Yoda this would have been an easy pass for me.

Actually he does learn to become "one with the force". He is the first to learn how to do it, and it is from his discovery that Yoda, and Obi Wan learn how to do it. If you read the novelization of EpIII, there is a scene where Yoda talks to Qui Gons ghost.
Personally I think it was a HUGE mistake to exclude this from the movie- it holds so much importance to the development of the character of Jinn, and explains why we only see a few ppl in the future who are able to retain their identities after death.
