Maul sliced in half? and he is still an ongoing character......people can accept that (not me mind you)

I didn't read the article, but let's do some math.
Let's say Mace Windu is 40 years old in TPM (is that pretty young to be on the Jedi Council?). + 10 for AotC, + 3 to get us to RotS. That puts him at 53 years old at the time of his death (maybe). Add 19 years to get us to ANH, that gets him to 72. I'm kind of fuzzy on the time between all the events of the OT, but let's just add 3 to get us to RotJ. That's up to 75. Now add the 30 years it takes to get us to TFA, and you've got 110.
Mace Windu would be ~110 years old IF he was still alive and laid low all those years.
But since Mr. Hidalgo has spoken, he's dead.

I totally agree. It was almost equal to slipping on a banana peel
Sam Jackson decided THE DEATH of his own damn character. He wanted him to die like that. He can't back out of his own decision, plus it lessens the entire Jedi Purge. Oh, jedi can survive? YAY the purge never actually happened! All the jedi went to Dagobah and will emerge in VIII! :facepalm

They should add him to ESB...
The scene where yoda tells Obi's ghost "no there is another" mace could walk up behind him and be like "damn, you dumb old green motha ****er... I been tryin to tell you that fo twentyfo motha ****ing years!"
Not that it's a huge difference, but last i checked 75+30 = 105
Boba Fett i can understand, having Mando armor and a lifetime of gaining skills. But a full on electrocution, a lost arm, and tossed out a window seems to be a death. Luke only survived because Palpatine was just hurting him, up until he says Luke will die. Only then Luke cried for Daddy to save him and Vader turned back into Ani. Palpatine screamed about his power and tossed it into Mace's skull, he has to be done.
