He was, canonically, very close to the Dark Side. His lightsaber style in particular delved into some aggressive territory for a Jedi. It was only because Master Windu was a master of his own desires and emotions that he was able to maintain such clarity and focus when most would have gone over. He was Qui-Gon’s twin, as far as Old Republic Gray Jedi were concerned.
Windu was not only a badass, but likely would have been the only Jedi who could have understood Anakin, and it kills me that he only would have ‘won his respect’ for turning in Palpatine in the hours before the Republic fell.
Master Windu was awesome. And I still think it’s hilarious that Samuel L. Jackson didn’t want to voice him in a cartoon because he didn’t want a cartoon credit on his name, even though this was hands down Windu’s most badass curbstomping of all time.
Jackson did voice Mace in the animated clone wars movie. And the year before voiced two characters in Afro Samurai, a project he helped bring to fruition. And has been multiple others since.
