He acknowledged his lack of love scene skills, he should have passed those scenes on to someone else to write.

Yeah, it is because he didn't know how to truly make Anakin fall, rather than extending it through two films, he forced it through half a film, which in my opinion made the dialogue and his actions less believable and weaker.

I liked that speech as well, and Qui-Gon's character was unique and well thought out. It helped that he was in one movie, otherwise he would have been watered down like Anakin and other characters. Neeson did an excellent job.

His character was terrible, by virtue of the dialogue and situation, plus Jackson's reputation sort of nixed any character developement...
