There has been a lot of discussion about this on the web and fansites, and stuff, so here: How did you think Anakin brought the Force into balance? Some people say it was because he killed the last two Sith alive. Others say it was because he slaughtered the Jedi. I say it was this: He didn't only kill every Jedi, he also killed every Sith. The universe would have to start all over again. No Jedi... No Sith... This would of course have a tremendous effect on the Jedi after this. In the Old Republic, the Jedi were arrogant, because they thought they thought they were invincible. Now they know they can very easy be destroyed So that's why you have better Jedi, that are sure of themselves, but aren't overconfident. And now an even bigger headbreaker: Was Anakin supposed to go to the Dark Side? Was it meant to happen, or was it one of the possibilities that could happen? I think he was supposed to go to the Dark Side, the Force had that in mind for him. Because, the way I look at it, the Jedi where arrogant and needed to be destroyed. They where to sure of themselves, according to Yoda. And they should be, because for over a thousand years, there were no enemies that could stand against a Jedi, so the Jedi became (in the eyes of the normal man) invincible. That's why when kids are trained to be a Jedi, they expect to be so powerful... Which brings arrogance, right? So the Jedi that weren't arrogant (like Yoda, Echuu-Shen John) escape the slaughter miraculously  . But I'm still guessing why Obi-Wan was allowed to be alive. Was it because he had something to do in his life? Or maybe he had to set right a fault he once made? And if you think he wasn't arrogant, then look at this: in Ep1 he said: "I am ready to face the trials". Arrogant, right? In Ep1 he thought he was ready to take on a Padawan of his own. And he thought he could instruct him just as wel as master Yoda, very arrogant, right? Anyway, post your comments on both these subjects  And feel free to give as lot of critiscism as you want _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website!

Well, a question that rises is: when did the Force got unbalanced. But I think that he balanced the force by eliminating the teachings of the Sith AND Jedi, so that Luke could make his own teachings, bringing Dark and Light side together. If you see that Luke used his agressive fealings too defeat his father but he did not kill him, he controlled his rage. alsi he uses choke, what surly isn't a lightside power. _______________ One night, I was lying in my bed, looking up at the stars and I said to myself: "Where the h*** is my ceiling?! |

I think the MOMENT of balance was when he turned to the light side and killed Sidious. But wut exactly is balance? with out one side, there cant be another. So too much of one would mean unbalanced. So in all reality, its never been balanced. _______________ Brother to: Tamal, Kavar, J.D.,Jermia, Devlin, Ulic, Xiabara, Seij,Tarron Mib,>>>ROCK ON .My Spacescapes art page.My Everything Else art page.

well, technically, if he hadnt been a Sith, someone else would have taken his spot, and Luke & Leia prolly would have been killed on the spot. Well, on the other hand, the series would be kinda short if the little kid Anakin had killed all Siths in EP1... hehe, well its a movie plot, so dont think too much about it _______________ One of the Belouve boys, founder of the mighty FiZZsters Midbie council #20 - Fizz - #1933 - Jan '03 - Aug '04 "Renfield, you idiot!" |

I agree Your theory includes two of our theories, and yours seems logical, actually. But in EpIV I think(might be EpVI), Obi-Wan himself says: "I thought I could instruct him just as well as Master Yoda" _______________ Visit the Belouve Family Website!

well, I havent read the other arguments, so im sorry, but... I belive Ani was destined for the dark side. Why? Didn't Obi say that there is no such thing as luck? which means, that if you did something, you were supposed to do it? How else could the jedi tell the future? Fate. So in that sence, Ani was meant to go to the dark side. Did he bring balance to the force? yes and no. How did he do it? By being evil. what does balance mean? does it mean that one side is more powerful than the other? no. It means both are equal. For thousands of years, the Dark Side had been in hiding. was it powerful? no. Was light side powerful? yes. Ani came along. He turned that around, he destroyed most, if not all, of the jedi. killing off the light, and being very strong, he brought the dark side up to power. even more powerful than the light side. that put dark in power for a few years. time was balancing out. by killing off palpatine and dying himself as a light jedi, he put light back up, and Luke brought a new Academy (or is starting one). So he brought balance to the force for a little bit, meaning, he brought the darkside up to power and held off onthe light side, balancing out their rule of the galaxy/universe. he didn't balance it, because the dark side was in power for a very short time a few decades, while the light side was in power for a few centuries. But, thats just what i think. someone also said, that he made them closer in power, therefore making it so that a jedi coudl fall, then come back again. But.... I think the jedi mis-read the prophecy. About obi being arrogant, i think he was ready, qui-gon thought he was ready, and that stroke of 'arrogance' was just so that he would push the council to making him take the trials so that qui-gon could take anikin as a padawan. If you remember, after Maul, obi got anakin, so unless he took the trials strait after the movie ended,he never took them. he didnt think he could teach ani better than yoda, he thought he could teach him as well as qui-gon. But, as ani turned dark, he felt as if he failed, and wished qui-gon could have taught ani. i think :S _______________ When you become an actor, you become the person, and you dont act anymore.

Maybe for the cycle to start over then 1 must be alive be it sith or jedi u get me Didn't someone say Luke was partly darkside? Then he would be the perfect item for a restart of the cycle. Anakin turned back to the light side, so he might be some sort of fusion between the two too. _______________ Why use only one saber, when you can use two, and double the mayhem? |
