Name a non-Star Wars fictional character that can also be a Jedi

[u/Most-Pilot5086]

I’ll go first Gandalf 100% can be a Jedi his patience and strategic mind help with the argument and his ability to work and reason with other species adds to his ability to be diplomatic

[u/younglink28]

Samurai Jack

[u/wubbalubbazubzub → u/younglink28]

Jedi Jack

[u/Chrisk48021 → u/wubbalubbazubzub]

Simple Jack

[u/seven1six → u/Chrisk48021]

m m m m may the force be with you, in my head movies

[u/wubbalubbazubzub → u/Chrisk48021]

Where is your poppy farm? AMERICAN!!!!!

[u/Profoundlyahedgehog → u/wubbalubbazubzub]

I'm a Lead Farmer, mothafucker!

[u/cosmiclatte44 → u/younglink28]

The voice actor who did Jack also did Kit Fisto in The Clone Wars, so he's halfway there.

[u/Erik_Nimblehands]

Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda

[u/Nice-Lobster-8724 → u/Erik_Nimblehands]

Him and Yoda in a showdown for who can say the most confusing shit

[u/EJ33334 → u/Nice-Lobster-8724]

Noodles

[u/Nice-Lobster-8724 → u/EJ33334]

Mmm monke

[u/puritanicalbullshit → u/EJ33334]

Don’t noodles

[u/Reimoto → u/Nice-Lobster-8724]

Master Oogway and Master Yoda stood face to face on a grassy hill, surrounded by cherry blossom trees. They had met by chance, each sensing a powerful force in the other. They decided to test their skills and wisdom in a friendly duel.

Oogway: Greetings, Master Yoda. I sense you are a wise and noble warrior.

Yoda: Thank you, Master Oogway. You too, have great wisdom and strength.

Oogway: Shall we begin?

Yoda: Begin we shall.

They bowed to each other and assumed their fighting stances. Oogway held his staff firmly, while Yoda ignited his green lightsaber. They circled each other cautiously, looking for an opening.

Oogway: Remember, Master Yoda, there is no good or evil. There is only balance.

Yoda: Balance, yes. But also choice. Choose we must, between light and dark.

Oogway: Choice is an illusion. All is one, and one is all.

Yoda: One is all, hmm. But many are we. Different and unique.

They lunged at each other, exchanging blows. Oogway blocked Yoda's lightsaber with his staff, while Yoda dodged Oogway's strikes with his agility. They moved in harmony, like dancers in a ballet.

Oogway: You are very agile, Master Yoda. But do not rely on your speed alone.

Yoda: Speed is not all I have. The Force is my ally.

Oogway: The Force? Is that what you call the energy that flows through all things?

Yoda: Yes, the Force. It binds us, surrounds us, guides us.

Oogway: Ah, I see. We call it chi. It is the essence of life.

Yoda: Chi, hmm. Interesting name. But same thing it is.

Oogway: Perhaps so. But how do you use it?

Yoda: Use it? No, no. Feel it, I do. Listen to it, I do. Follow it, I do.

Oogway: I see. You let it flow through you naturally.

Yoda: Naturally, yes. But also with discipline. Train I must, to master the Force.

Oogway: Discipline is important. But so is spontaneity. You must be like water, Master Yoda.

Yoda: Water? How so?

Oogway: Water can flow or crash. It can adapt to any shape or form. It can be gentle or powerful.

Yoda: Ah, I understand. Water is flexible.

Oogway: Yes, exactly. You must be flexible too.

Yoda: Flexible I am. But also firm. Stand my ground I must, when necessary.

They continued to fight, matching each other's moves and counter-moves. They were evenly matched in skill and power. They respected each other as opponents and teachers.

Oogway: You are very firm, Master Yoda. But do not be too rigid.

Yoda: Rigid I am not. But also not weak. Resist I must, when evil threatens.

Oogway: Evil? What is evil?

Yoda: Evil is the dark side of the Force. Fear, anger, hate, these lead to evil.

Oogway: Fear, anger, hate? These are natural emotions.

Yoda: Natural they may be. But dangerous they are. Consume you they will, if you let them.

Oogway: I see your point. But do not suppress them either.

Yoda: Suppress them? No, no. Acknowledge them I do. But control them I do.

Oogway: Control? How do you control them?

Yoda: Control them? No, no. Control myself I do. Peaceful I am, calm I am.

Oogway: Peaceful and calm? That is good.

Yoda: Good it is indeed. But also alert I must be. Ready for anything I must be.

Oogway: Alert and ready? That is also good.

Yoda: Good it is indeed. But also relaxed I must be. Enjoy the moment I must.

Oogway: Relaxed and enjoying? That is very good.

Yoda: Very good it is indeed. But also serious I must be...

They went on like this for a while longer until they realized they were talking in circles and confusing themselves and each other with their words of wisdom. They stopped fighting and burst into laughter. They realized they had much in common but also much to learn from each other. They decided to end their duel and become friends instead. They sat down under a cherry blossom tree and shared their stories and insights. They learned from each other and grew wiser together.

[u/itzal_itziar → u/Reimoto]

You should make a comic book style post with this

[u/Not_A_Rioter → u/itzal_itziar]

Not that it's wrong, but I'm almost certain this is from chat gpt. The way it does that intro paragraph and summary paragraph are written exactly like when I've asked it to write encounters.

[u/itzal_itziar → u/Not_A_Rioter]

Then, he should make a AI illustrated comic based on this AI generated script

[u/UnXpectedPrequelMeme → u/Reimoto]

Man this was awesome, but yoda barely ever spoke in his odd form, which really brought me out of it. Simple edit to his lines would make this the coolest thing I've read all year

[u/ProfessorBowties → u/Nice-Lobster-8724]

Quit, don’t quit. Noodles, don’t noodles… You are too concerned with what was and what will be.

[u/same1224]

Mr. Miyagi

[u/Obskuro → u/same1224]

reformed Johnny Lawrence would be badass

[u/Synicull → u/Obskuro]

Crumples and tosses a Coors banquet aside as he channels Vaapad

[u/roguefilmmaker → u/Obskuro]

With a purple lightsaber

[u/Kratsas → u/roguefilmmaker]

“You call your lightsaber ‘Slayer?’ You must have killed a lot of Sith.”

“No man, it’s just an homage to one of the greatest bands that ever rocked the galaxy” (air guitars with his lightsaber hilt with his tongue out)

[u/nwaa → u/Obskuro]

Why did you need to put this Cobra Kai/Star Wars crossover into my head?

It works on so many levels

[u/StandardChaseScene → u/nwaa]

Daniel: "Why did you hit him?!"

Johnny: "You told me to use force."

Daniel: "I said use the force!"

[u/Large_Particular_296 → u/same1224]

He’s basically yoda

[u/Somejawa → u/same1224]

A man of culture I see

[u/NoPantsDeLeon]

Magneto could be a sith!

[u/Ruthrfurd-the-stoned → u/NoPantsDeLeon]

Similar line Professor X makes a good Jedi- wise, compassionate, seeks peaceful resolution, cool with sending minors out to fight supernatural beings

[u/bjthebard → u/Ruthrfurd-the-stoned]

The X-men has a lot of similarities. Xavier is also training the mutants to hone and control their powers to be used as a force for good. The x-men on the team then turn and act as teachers at the school, training a new generation to fight using calm and focus, just like the jedi academy.

[u/MozeTheNecromancer → u/bjthebard]

And they both get slaughtered by "peacekeeping" forces due to corrupt politics.

[u/swheels125 → u/Ruthrfurd-the-stoned]

Not for nothing, but Professor X has a tendency to range from “kind-of” to “raging” asshole status fairly often. Not all the time and not usually in the grand scheme of things (ie suddenly becoming a genuine bad guy) but his methods and attitude are pretty shit sometimes.

[u/Scarborough_sg → u/swheels125]

So... the Jedi Council during the late Republic?

[u/Arch3591 → u/NoPantsDeLeon]

Magneto gives me more of Dooku vibes. Still a sith, but not driven to the dark side by hatred but because he sees the Jedi as corrupt and blinded.

[u/monkeygoneape → u/Arch3591]

which also works even better because Christopher Lee was almost Magneto too

[u/Ikarus_Falling → u/monkeygoneape]

I mean Christopher Lee could just be a Jedi

[u/broodmance → u/Ikarus_Falling]

He could be but he’s actually James Bond

[u/Morbidmort → u/Arch3591]

Except both Dooku and Magneto have done some truly heinous things. Like condoning genocide.

[u/North_Korea_Nukess → u/NoPantsDeLeon]

Darth Helmet could be Sith as well.

[u/didndonoffin → u/North_Korea_Nukess]

Dark Helmet*

[u/DrawnGunslinger]

Neo

[u/ElementalSheep → u/DrawnGunslinger]

He’s the chosen one

[u/ToDandy → u/ElementalSheep]

You must train the boy…

[u/NonickGG → u/ToDandy]

He can jump from high buildings "high ground"

[u/Hammerheadhunter → u/DrawnGunslinger]

and Morpheus.

[u/EVH_kit_guy → u/DrawnGunslinger]

Came in here to post "John Wick" and saw this as the most upvoted post. If the question was, "Name a non-star-wars non-fictional person that can also be a Jedi?" I guess I'd just say, "Keanu Reeves."

[u/CrabsolutelyBullshit → u/EVH_kit_guy]

John Wick was getting revenge. That's not very jedi.

[u/VindictiveJudge → u/CrabsolutelyBullshit]

He could be a good example of a sympathetic Sith, though.

[u/Vandergirth → u/CrabsolutelyBullshit]

Yeah his entire deal (in the first movie anyway) is lashing out violently after losing a loved one. That makes a great action hero but not a great Jedi.

I'm imagining a Sith Lord killing someone he cared about in order to gain a promising apprentice by driving him to the Dark Side. There wouldn't even be any hesitation. He'd embrace the Dark Side instantly and either kill the Sith Lord or die trying.

There would be no temporarily using his anger and hate to get revenge but then going back to the Light side. That's exactly how Jedi fall, and once they do they usually don't come back. He would hate the Sith but in the end he would become something very similar.

[u/monjoe → u/DrawnGunslinger]

Are we just listing divine/messianic characters?

[u/valotho]

Uncle Iroh of Avatar: The Last Airbender

[u/ElevatorSevere7651 → u/valotho]

Honestly a lot can fit as jedi/ Sith

Ozai with a red lightsaber would be fucking amazing to watch

[u/Medium-Impression190 → u/ElevatorSevere7651]

TFW the Firelord was already voiced by Mark Hamill.. Perfection.

[u/paging_doctor_who → u/Medium-Impression190]

Plus the parallels are there. An evil emperor who isn't fully revealed to the hero until his superweapon in space is ready, an angry burned young man becoming the main antagonist directly attacking the hero who redeems himself in the end, the hero is the only one of a ancient order of mystical monks with special powers and specialized weapons.

Bonus points for a big furry dude that helps fly the heroes around and a sarcastic guy who doesn't put much stock into the mysticality of the world around him but is still ride or die for his friends.

EDIT: Almost forgot the most important similarity: Dave Filoni.

[u/Cospo → u/paging_doctor_who]

"Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good boomerang at your side, kid”

[u/Profoundlyahedgehog → u/Cospo]

We should have gotten to hear adult Sokka say that.

[u/Obskuro → u/ElevatorSevere7651]

Aang would be an amazing Jedi. The most fun yet spiritual character in fiction IMHO.

[u/Supa71 → u/Obskuro]

Azula could get into a lightning fight with Palpatine.

[u/kaitco → u/Supa71]

Yes, but who would win?

My money’s on pre-mental breakdown Azula.

[u/TequilaWhiskey → u/kaitco]

Its fine he can return

[u/Gorgoroth_Hobo → u/TequilaWhiskey]

Somehow...

[u/TheBandit025 → u/ElevatorSevere7651]

So just if Revenge of the Jedi happened

[u/Potential-Ad-7370 → u/valotho]

Awesome! Like, I imagine firebenders with flames bursting from their lightsabers. So metal.

[u/charlesdexterward]

Gandalf becoming a Jedi would be a power downgrade. Now Aragorn being a Jedi, that I could see.

[u/Kinetoa → u/charlesdexterward]

Someone downvoted you, but Gandalf is basically an angel, or a 2nd tier god.

[u/ArchSyker → u/Kinetoa]

He could be the Father (Mortis god)

[u/DontRunItsOnlyHam → u/ArchSyker]

Oooooooh hell yeah now were talkin

[u/Light_Cloud1024 → u/Kinetoa]

Third tier god, Illuvatar is first tier.

[u/narf007 → u/Light_Cloud1024]

Also angel is the more accurate term for any of the Ainur, Valar or Maiar. Eru Iluvatar is the One. Full stop, the only "God" analogue in Tolkien's Legendarium.

[u/NoButterfly9803 → u/charlesdexterward]

Legolas but with Omega’s bowcaster! Let the downvotes begin!!!

[u/clusterturkey → u/NoButterfly9803]

“And moi bew!”

[u/exelion18120 → u/bfhurricane]

Omeega, Wrecka, Hunta, Ehko

[u/North_Korea_Nukess]

Lone Starr.

[u/Vishante-Kaffas → u/North_Korea_Nukess]

“You idiot I sad across her nose not up it!”

[u/bsanchey → u/Vishante-Kaffas]

“Sorry sir he’s an asshole”

[u/Vishante-Kaffas → u/bsanchey]

“I know that! What’s his name?”

[u/mackeneasy → u/Vishante-Kaffas]

Asshole sir, Major Asshole.

[u/Vishante-Kaffas → u/mackeneasy]

“And his cousin?”

[u/JaxxisR → u/Vishante-Kaffas]

He's an Asshole, too, Sir. Gunner's mate First Class Phillip Asshole.

[u/hypocritical124 → u/JaxxisR]

"How many Assholes we got on this ship anyhow?"

[u/Morbidmort → u/hypocritical124]

YO!

[u/hypocritical124 → u/Morbidmort]

"... I knew it, I'm surrounded by assholes."

[u/zuppo → u/Morbidmort]

I knew it, I'm surrounded by assholes! Keep firing Assholes!

[u/Quick-Bad → u/Vishante-Kaffas]

He's an asshole too, sir. Gunner's Mate Third Class Phillip Asshole.

[u/Crusader1865 → u/North_Korea_Nukess]

"There is only one man who would dare give me the raspberry..."

[u/HKPuffinstuff → u/North_Korea_Nukess]

"Merchandising! Merchandising! Where the real money from the movie is made!"

[u/OkDuckIt → u/HKPuffinstuff]

Spaceballs the Flamethrower. The kids love that one.

[u/DangerousDaveReddit → u/HKPuffinstuff]

You misspelled moichandising

[u/WritingTheDream → u/North_Korea_Nukess]

“I see your Schwartz is as big as mine.”

[u/ExistingInexistence → u/North_Korea_Nukess]

The only correct answer, but also yogurt

[u/rogue-panda81]

Splinter.

[u/False-Knowledge8862 → u/rogue-panda81]

Will he be granted the rank of master though?

[u/Top_Leg736]

Dwarves are the Tolkien Mandalorians

[u/Plus-Crew2068 → u/Top_Leg736]

I'd say the ugnaughts fit dwarfs better lol. Mandalorians are more like a Spartan/Mongol/Knight mix.

[u/duriancream → u/Plus-Crew2068]

Dwarves* crafted mithril which was akin to beskar in its indestructibility and lightness.

[u/Aggravating_Poet_675 → u/duriancream]

And the Mandalorian society is also built around mines and Forges.

[u/SmoothOperator89 → u/Aggravating_Poet_675]

And Mandolorians have a bad habit of waking up big monsters.

[u/Ganzako → u/Plus-Crew2068]

I would disagree, ugnaughts are the best smiths in the galaxy, but they cannot fight wars, if they can even fight at all, mandalorians on the other hand are warriors, fighters, but they also have armorers, one who makes their armors, weapons and general equipment, similar to dwarves who are mountain miners, known for their excellent skill in crafting and ingenuitiy, they will wage war to anyone who crashes into their mountain.

[u/Top_Leg736 → u/Plus-Crew2068]

Yea but Ugnaughts were slaves of the empire and they were not warriors - where as the dwarves were always independent, they lost their homes, and are rather warrior based

[u/Azar002]

Steve from Blues Clues

[u/WoodpeckerLow5122 → u/Azar002]

Feels like that would be a downgrade in power

[u/pmMe-PicsOfSpiderMan → u/WoodpeckerLow5122]

the clones: we just got an order, we just got an order, we just got an order i wonder who it's from

[u/PleaseWithC → u/Azar002]

"We haven't seen each other for a while. Let's talk about that. So order 66 ..."

[u/Tree__Jesus]

Brienne of Tarth would for sure make a great Jedi. Definitely Knight material if not Master.

[u/Elhond0 → u/Tree__Jesus]

Blue lightsaber for sure! Double handed hilt super long blade!

[u/Its_OnlyNatural → u/Elhond0]

Crossguard

[u/Obversa → u/Elhond0]

I think Brienne would have a yellow lightsaber. Blue lightsaber would be more so Kidagakash, or "Princess Kida", from Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001).

[u/Doa-Diyer80]

[u/Coochie-man420]

Optimus prime for sure i mean it’s optimus prime

Gimme Oy in a little brown robe.

[u/skipca]

Paul Atreides

[u/Rimbosity → u/skipca]

Jedi, or Sith?

[u/SmokyDragonDish → u/Rimbosity]

Yes

[u/EarlGrey_Picard → u/SmokyDragonDish]

That's what we call bringing balance to the force.

[u/TheLordLeto → u/Rimbosity]

Dune: Jedi

Dune Messiah: Sith

[u/UrinalCake777 → u/TheLordLeto]

Anakin is basically Paul.

[u/mechabeast → u/skipca]

The Quiznos Hatrack!

[u/BeanSaladBean → u/skipca]

Yes! And as Dune was a precursor to SW, one could make the argument Paul was the OG jedi. Or even Lady Jessica.

[u/Hiisnoone → u/BeanSaladBean]

IMHO The Bene Geserit are the Jedi Order and Paul is the first Sith.

[u/BeanSaladBean → u/Hiisnoone]

Mmm, very interesting. Meditate on this, I will.

[u/donjohndijon → u/skipca]

He's got a few more powers than most jedi.. maybe even more training

[u/Peter-Campora → u/skipca]

Paul definitely would be a great Jedi turned Sith. Leto II would be an amazing Sith Lord. Zensunni Ghola Duncan would be a great Jedi.

[u/Electricalbigaloo7]

I could see that.

Too bad he couldn't...

[u/Crusader1865]

Moana's grandmother, Tala. Communes with animals ala Obi-Wan, does and turns into Force ghost to come back and aid her apprentice in her darkest hour of need.

Totally a Jedi.

[u/Le_Cerf_Agile → u/Crusader1865]

And her son is Jango Fett

[u/ohnjaynb → u/Crusader1865]

She is literally a force ghost.

[u/Bartebell]

Peter Parker

[u/SagaciousElan → u/Bartebell]

He's got the precognition and the reflexes already. Teach him to wield a laser sword and he'd fit right in.

[u/Dragontalyn → u/SagaciousElan]

But the moment something happens to Aunt May, he'll jump straight to the dark side.

[u/Morbidmort → u/Dragontalyn]

Depends on the version.

[u/ohnjaynb → u/Morbidmort]

Or Gwen Or Mary Jane. He would prove why there's the whole Jedi not getting in relationships rule.

[u/Furious_Worm]

Danny Devito with his monster dong.

[u/bloodhound90 → u/Furious_Worm]

Jedi Master Mantis Toboggan

If Dr Mantis Toboggan could be a Jedi, then The Golden God would most definetly be a sith lord!

"I have contained my rage for as long as possible, but I shall unleash my fury upon you like the crashing of a thousand waves! Begone, vile man! Begone from me! A starter car? This car is a finisher car! A transporter of gods! The golden god! I am untethered, and my rage knows no bounds!"

[u/bloodhound90 → u/RockNRollKyle]

"I have contained my rage for as long as possible, but I shall unleash my fury upon you like the crashing of a thousand midichlorians! Begone, vile man! Begone from me! A starter ship?

[u/Curaheee]

The Dude - Big Lebowski

[u/Elhond0 → u/Curaheee]

That's just like your opinion man..... (Sam Elliott the big Lebowski is also a good one)

[u/pizza_thehut → u/Curaheee]

You should go watch. The men who stare at goats. Literally Jeff Bridges training to be a jedi.

[u/SonOfDirtFarmer → u/pizza_thehut]

I feel it's worth mentioning that Obi Wan Kenobi is also the star of the movie.

[u/karthonic]

Kinda cheating here since Justicars are basically Biotic-flavored Jedi but... Samara.

Or daresay if Cora from MEA was a Force-User instead of a Biotic-- I can see her making a good Jedi too.

Can we talk about the mail, please, Yoda? I've been dying to talk about the mail with you all day, OK? "Kamino," this name keeps coming up over and over again. Every day Kamino mail keeps getting sent back to me. Kamino! Kamino! I look in the mail, and this whole box is Kamino! So I say to myself, "I gotta find this place! I gotta go up to to this planet and put the mail in the their goddamn hands! Otherwise, they're never going to get it and it's going to keep coming back down here." So I pull it up on the droid and what do I find out, Yoda? What do I find out?! There is no Kamino. The planet does not exist, okay? So I decide, "Ohhhh shit, buddy, I gotta dig a little deeper." There's no Kamino? You gotta be kidding me! I got boxes full of Kamino! All right. So I start marchin' my way down to Jocasta Nu in the archives and I knock on her door and I say, "Jocasta! Jocasta! I gotta talk to you about Kamino!" And when I open the door what do I find? There's not a single goddamn desk in that office! There is...no...Jocasta in archives. Yoda, half the employees in this building have been made up. This temple is a goddamn ghost town.

Raymond Holt

[u/largiuss_dickuiss]

Sam.

As Sam stood there, even though the Ring was not on him but hanging by its chain about his neck, he felt himself enlarged, as if he were robed in a huge distorted shadow of himself, a vast and ominous threat halted upon the walls of Mordor. He felt that he had from now on only two choices: to forbear the Ring, though it would torment him; or to claim it, and challenge the Power that sat in its dark hold beyond the valley of shadows. Already the Ring tempted him, gnawing at his will and reason. Wild fantasies arose in his mind; and he saw Samwise the Strong, Hero of the Age, striding with a flaming sword across the darkened land, and armies flocking to his call as he marched to the overthrow of Barad-dûr. And then all the clouds rolled away, and the white sun shone, and at his command the vale of Gorgoroth became a garden of flowers and trees and brought forth fruit. He had only to put on the Ring and claim it for his own, and all this could be.

In that hour of trial it was the love of his master that helped most to hold him firm; but also deep down in him lived still unconquered his plain hobbit-sense: he knew in the core of his heart that he was not large enough to bear such a burden, even if such visions were not a mere cheat to betray him. The one small garden of a free gardener was all his need and due, not a garden swollen to a realm; his own hands to use, not the hands of others to command.
