Maybe the ghost form shows him as he would have been at the age he died if he had become a Jedi and lived a good life. _______________ "You hear that, Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability..." |

if they make a new edition they'll change it to ROTS Anakin in case you don't know. And if his old-style ghost looked like Anakin when he died (I don't mean Obi-wan's meaning) then he would be hairless, scarred, nearly limbless and nearly skinless under the robe _______________ -Aiddat, the Gran with the green blades.

Or perhaps it's to signify that Anakin Skywalker died when Darth Vader came into existence...since Obi Wan said as much in the movies. _______________ "You hear that, Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability..." |

I think he is referring to the DVD-edition, where the ghost is now Hayden Christianson, as he was in Episode III. I think, speculation, that the reason they changed that is because you can't really have a jedi ghost of someone consumed by the dark side. I think that he and his ghost/spirit were redeemed back to the way they were before going to the dark side. It has more story-telling power in bringing Anaking back to the way he was, to really drive home the point of redemption. Which is what the story is about. Fall and redemption. The edit at the end with Anakin's ghost in Episode III appearance probably just solidifies the overarching theme. Remember, it is a STORY. Lucas wanted to tell a STORY, not create something that has mass continuity and leave all possible questions answered. This is exactly why he says "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far, away", to show that it is make-believe, a fairy tale, and not to read into it too much, but just enjoy the story. But I made my guess. Else, just enjoy the story. _______________ Jedi do not fight for peace. That's only a slogan, and is as misleading as slogans always are. Jedi fight for civilization, because only civilization creates peace. |

Anakin's ghost looked like he did when he died, pretty much. He wasn't as old as Obi Wan of course. _______________ "You hear that, Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability..." |
