Well, the chosen one was supposed to restore balance to the force, right? And hundreds, or thousands, or at least a lot of jedis vs. 2 sith isn't exactly balanced.
So anakin and his minions killed a lot of jedis till there was 2 vs 2, Anakin/Vader and the emperor vs Obi-Wan and Yoda :D

This logic is perfect if we are speaking mathematically, I once thought this way, until I came to the inevitable conclusion that the only way the force could achieve balance in this way is that all force users be destroyed.

With further study and meditation the answer comes with a far more frightening truth. The Jedi of the prequel's are corrupt. Not in the sense that they seek domination but they do exhibit pride in their power and influence in the shaping of the galaxy. While the Sith, albeit there are only two, are perversions of the force. This is why they must both be destroyed and that is exactly what Anakin/Vader did.

The Prophecy is fulfilled once Anakin tosses the Emperor down that reactor shaft. It is in Anakin's "forbidden" offspring that the force will seek a new balance.

Actually I've read somewhere that right before Anakin dies, Obi-Wan appears behind Luke, telling Anakin how to do it.
Since he's powerful, he can learn it quickly :P


Anakin is the Chosen One! He doesn't need to be taught this power, he only need know that it is possible. He began his study of this power when he struck down Obi in ANH. As you recall Vader is somewhat perplexed by the absence of a body. He, being a full fledged Jedi at one point in his life, knew the force was at work there and studied the phenomenon he witnessed. In his own meditation he was able to learn what had happened to his former Master's body. The key to Anakin's ability to become a spirit is his turning away from the Dark Side and his traditional Jedi funeral performed by Luke, his son. Luke's power made it possible, Luke turned him back from the darkness, and destroyed his corpse then Anakin was released from his dark bindings and joined with the force, from which he came.

well IMHO anyways

fun topic

On a side note, why does Anakin come back all glowy green anyway - from what we are told in EpIII Qui Gon studied this way of returning from death before he died - that is what Obi goes off to study from Qui Gon so that he too can return.

As far as the films are concerned it is Anakin but I agree that balance is a tricky issue.

How can Anakin have returned balance to the force - he kills the Emp and then pops it but Luke is left = Jedis 1 Sith 0.

On a side note, why does Anakin come back all glowy green anyway - from what we are told in EpIII Qui Gon studied this way of returning from death before he died - that is what Obi goes off to study from Qui Gon so that he too can return.

Yoda too has time to study it from Qui Gon on Dagobah so he is good to come back BUT Anakin/Vader is shocked in ANH when he sees Obi dissapear, so he has clearly never heard of this ability and he has noone to teach him it either?

I love these films but I think you have to take them with a pinch of salt. The forums are littered with mistakes and plot failures and because of this no-one will ever know what Lucas really intended, least of all him half the time after watching EpIII.

Given this I have a gut feeling it was Jar Jar!

:P

Lucasfilm and Fox Home Entertainment present a two-disc set for the Revenge of the Sith DVD, with uncompromising picture and sound mastered directly from the original digital source material. The DVD will include a brand-new full-length documentary produced by Lucasfilm Ltd. as well as two new featurettes -- one that explores the prophecy of Anakin Skywalker as the Chosen One, and the other that looks at the movie's amazing stunts. A 15-part collection of Lucasfilm's groundbreaking web documentary series, Making Episode III, will also be included in the set. A two-level playable demo of Star Wars Battlefront II is also included on the DVD.

Since you need the good and the bad to get the balacnce. Thats why there are still followers of the Sith. Because you need to perserve balance.
Good stuff here

Hey but what if good and evil were two different entities in the star wars universe.

I say Anakin was the chosen one

Cuz he brought the light side to balance by exterminating the corrupt and proud Jedi

Then he wiped out the equally corrupt and terribly evil Sith

Exactly, but there will always be evil people, not just dark jedi or sith. Just imagine how many nuts, maniacs, and evil freaks there are in our world, now imagine the thousands of worlds and more in Star Wars, It balances out. There will always be darkside users, its just a fact, but with the sith gone forever, thats balance enough.

Now I dont want to be going against the maker of Star Wars but I like to see things my own way. And I see it like this: Everything has two sides to it a good and a bad. Unfourantly the fact that there is a good and a bad means that their is balcance. Without the bad we will never know what good means, and vis versa. And through this we see that you need evil to perseve good.

Balance = order. There is nothing about the darkside that is order. Darkside = chaos, war, no peace, attacking, synthetic (un-natural).

The lightside = natural (by the force), peace, serenity, defending, compassionate.

Phantom, I assume you've never heard of lucas, the creator of Star Wars' version of balance.

The lightside is balance, it's natural, compassionate, humble, defending the defenseless & weak, serenity, knowledge. The jedi don't believe in exacution, no matter who it is. That's pretty compassionate to me. The lightside jedi get to go into the living force and be eternal WITH THE FORCE.

The darkside is nothing near balance, it's rutheless, violant, cruel, sadistic. They are rampaging murderers, unsympathetic for life. They even create synthetic saber crystals instead of using ones made by THE FORCE.

I surely agree with Lucas, that, the lightside of the force is balance, because if the lightside jedi got to be eternal, living with THE FORCE forever, and the darkside jedi did not, it's a safe bet that the lightside is balance.

There is no balanace and there never will be, the force is ment to be inbalanced. After all no system is perfect. There never was a chosen one imo. The only way to bring balance to the force is to destroy both sides dark and light. There by making it a free world, making people free to use either side of the force.

Not all the sith are dead. Just the 2 main powerful ones. The jedi are in ruins still. Plus as long as there isn't another power hungry sith that rises an army and topples a republic the force should be in balance.
