    Anakin turning to the dark side is the biggest tragedy In cinema history. The hero of the clone wars, a good man and a better friend seduced by evil in order to save the ones he loved. He was blinded by fear, god I wish we had more adventures with him.

      Well, in my opinion, he was a slave his whole life. He feared death, and craves to control it. When he couldn’t, he became depressed and angry. Then, after all his sins, his slaughtering, the pain and suffering he’s felt and dealt, he CHOOSES to save his sons life. He SAVED his son. He stopped Luke from dying. Literally what he wanted to learn to do in AOTC, he does in the end, with his own strength. His own resolve. Just, kinda poetic imo.

    Anakin wasn’t “seduced” by the dark side. He was forced to it by loss, love, fear, arrogance, and shame. He was only trying to save Padme, at first. It breaks my heart every time I see vids like this. All the things that happened in his life led him to make horrible decisions. I still cry when I watch Revenge and Return; when Anakin falls to the dark side and then when Luke brings him back to the light side.

      Josh Tarrant you’re wrong. It ruined the whole point of the prophecy of Skywalker. Anakin DID destroy the sith, Palpatine. And with that, the sith were destroyed. The sequel trilogy could’ve still worked, because the knights of Ren weren’t actual sith. But bringing back Palpatine nullified the prophecy.

That is why he is in the movie . Kylo ren is not a sith because he is a ren. The prophercy says that he would destroy the sith and he did. Anakin brought balance to the force and Rey kept the balance.

      it's even more sad that that was probably the first time Anakin had emerged from deep within his subconscious in a decade. When anakin fell from grace he developed dissociative identity disorder and the anakin persona was buried within the subconscious and anakin's body was consumed by the darth vader persona. It is very likely that the anakin persona, broken and destroyed after losing everything, sat in the subconscious watching darth vader cause so much pain and suffering that continued to break anakin even more as he watched vader slaughter millions of people with anakin's hands.
      I hate when people say that anakin became evil, or anakin became a mass murderer, it wasn't anakin, it may have been his body but it wasn't his mind. I believe the exact moment the anakin persona retreated into the subconscious was when he caused the death of mace windu, there was that moment when anakin was sitting there absolutely defeated and he says "what have I done" and then moments later as he is kneeling down in front of sideous, that's when anakin completely disappeared and the darth vader personality took over. So although it may have seemed liked anakin was there, he wasn't, vader is the one who invaded the jedi temple killed all those jedi and those younglings and then vader is the one who force choked padme, and attacked obi-wan. I can't even begin to imagine what anakin was feeling as he watched his own hands force choke the love of his life and attack his master, best friend, and brother.
      After a decade of being trapped in the subconscious, when vader saw ahsoka that was the first time anakin had seen her since his fall. Somehow he gained enough strength to momentarily fight the vader persona and emerge from the subconscious, but I guess he wasn't strong enough because vader was able to push him back into the subconscious a moment later.... it's just so sad :(

  • @gameraider100
    @gameraider100 Před 4 lety +601

    This just shows how Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader is the very core of the whole Star Wars story.
    The internal conflict of good and evil that was within himself who was known as the Chosen One to bring balance to the Force - the energy of Life. In so many stories when we think of the "Chosen One" we think there's no way he could be evil, he has to be good otherwise he CAN'T be the Chosen One ... and this is what probably Obi-Wan thought, therefore, had no idea Anakin would turn to the Dark Side. But he did.
    The Light Side, despite being good, was mastered by Jedi Masters who had become so strict in their ways, overly cautious of being seduced to the Dark Side that they could not see a Sith was in their midst and that Sith - Darth Sidious - a master of the Dark Side, manipulated the most powerful (yet emotionally weak) Jedi for the benefit of Sith ways. Siding completely with either side had not done Anakin properly - depressed both ways, the only happiness he felt was his love for his lone mother, Padme and his child(ren) before they were even born, which both Jedi and Sith had stripped him away from in one way or another.
    Anakin was the KEY to balance that had been misused and abused by both. He was the strongest savior and warrior for the galaxy ... and the most feared, tyrannical weapon of the Sith ... and the only way to save the Chosen One was to bring back the one thing he loved most ... the last piece of Padme and himself, Luke.

    Hayden Christianson did an amazing acting job in Revenge of the Sith and time is proving/ageing well his amazing work playing the most complex torn character in Hollywood history.....and along with Ewan Mcgregor and Sir Alec Guiness as the best actors in all the Star Wars films and by some margin. The three of them make the franchise so very special. Solo, Leia, Luke, even Rey are great and fun but Haydens work along with Ewan's is proving over time to be actually the best actors of Star Wars ..and shown especially in Revenge of the Sith (by far the best movie of the franchise). It showcases Ewan McGregors career best acting performance as well which in Sith matches Sir Alec Guinesses as well possibly. Obi-Wan's character's truly gives Star Wars legitimacy integrity and real strength. Bravo.

    Darth Vader IS Star Wars. While I am a *colossal* fan of seeing his more brutal and dark side, and watching him slaughter armies or tear people apart, Darth Vader’s redemption is also just endlessly captivating and well made. Luke’s beg for help of “Father, please!” in RotJ always gets to me. Vader could not resist the plea from his child, and finally realised that his love for his son was stronger than his rage, hatred or regret, and he would not lose him no matter what. Truly powerful to see Anakin break through again and sacrifice his life out of an act of pure parental love for Luke. After his mother Shmi’s death, Anakin promised her he would not fail again. This was his ultimate test, and he did not fail, saving his son, bringing balance and ultimately keeping both the prophecy of the Chosen One and in a way, the promise he made to his mother.
    I think a major part of how Luke got through to his father was what he shared with both his mother and grandmother; Shmi never gave up on Anakin, and never wavered her love and support for him, and this kind of unfaltering care for him was only shared by his wife and the love of his life, Padmé. What they have in common is that Anakin lost both of them and in both cases he blamed himself completely, believing that his own lack of strength and ability to keep his promise to free her caused his mother’s death, and that his own actions blinded by anger caused him to unintentionally kill his wife. He lost the two figures of consistent care in his life, with Obi-Wan having the barrier of first being his teacher and thus being critical and formal unable to truly show him care, and then secondly the confides of their differing positions in the Order. The Jedi Council distrusted and disrespected him even after all he suffered and worked for on their behalf, and completely neglected his needs, pressuring him immensely by slating any wavering in staunch Jedi ideals as “a path to the Dark Side” rather than normal human responses in his situation. The scene where he goes to Yoda for help is a perfect example; Yoda meant no ill will toward Anakin with his ‘advice’, and in fact was doing his best to help, but the council really were stupidly misguided about how both emotion and the Dark Side worked during this time.
    In his time as a Sith, everyone had given up on Vader, most of all Vader himself. Obi Wan and Yoda thought him completely lost and without a silver of hope at redemption, and the closest thing Vader had to anyone who cared about him was the facade that Sidious put on, when in reality the Emperor couldn’t care less about his apprentice if he wasn’t useful to him and strong enough to carry out his tasks, routinely plotting lethal tests and secretly sabotaging and endangering Vader’s life, and had the latter succumbed to any of these tests and ended up crippled or dead, Sidious would not have a single regret, and would just be disappointed or angered at his apprentice for failure. This is where Luke came in, and refused to give up on Vader, even when he routinely told his son that there was no hope for him, and that he was no longer Anakin Skywalker. It must have been a shock to Vader to have someone actually believe in him, show care and tell him that he had good inside him and that he was not a failure and a lost cause to the galaxy. Luke gave his father what no one had since his mother died, a feeling that he was actually worth something not because of his power, or his intellect, or his savagery, but because he was actually loved and cared about by someone, and that love was strong and genuine enough to endure hard tests. And that was a major factor in why, when given the choice between his life in the Empire and the Sith which he had accepted and resigned to for decades, and to abandon all that to save his son, Vader chose Luke.
    Don’t get me wrong, Vader is not at all a completely innocent victim, and morally speaking his atrocities can hardly be ignored, having directly and indirectly killed trillions and committed acts of barbarity which at times rivalled his master; but he made all the amends and atonements he could by choosing to do the right thing, and died a good man, allowing his spirit to transcend the physical plain and achieve both forgiveness by many of those he had wronged, and a state of peace and happiness.

    I loved Anakin right from the beginning when I was a kid watching the prequels. I felt so sad and sorry for all the pain he went through. When I saw how bad of a person he was in the original trilogy, I felt even worse because he had lost everything in one swoop and was destined to that life because of what he did. The Tragedy of Anakin Skywalker will forever be my favorite story. His redemption at the end by killing the emperor and saving his son was the best.

Luke and Obi Wan going through so much just to see the one they love to turn back into his true self. That being said, this makes me so sad. That the so called "continuation" of the story that makes up the Sequels, holds zero weight. I don't have any connection to the new crew, and the ruining of Luke's character. In this video you can see how much of a true Jedi he has become. And I don't see that anywhere in the new movies. I feel so much weight and passion within the story of Anakin and Luke. But nothing at all after that. Episode 6 is where the story ended.

Truly for me, the story of anakin is one that has had so much influence on my life. The ultimate picture of Darth Vader for me, is the iconic stand he does when he extents his arm and tells Luke "Join me...." It brings tears to my eyes, thinking how lost we can all get sometimes, and how far we can go in our madness and be blinded by our own hatred. What a story.... amazing.

    Anakin Skywalker was a good guy. He knew right from wrong and knew his mistakes. He had good intentions when he turned to the dark side. He only went over there because he wanted to save Padme because he loved her so much and couldn’t bear to lose her and his kids. Him being consumed by the darkness is definitely the biggest Star Wars tragedy. After I saw Revenge of the Sith I’ve never wanted to kick anyone’s ass as much as Chancellor Palpatine/Darth Sideous.
