noaxark Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Why are they talking about that Anakin will bring balance to the force all the time in Ep. 1 and 2? When did the force get unbalanced? What's it like when it's balanced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jubatus Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 This will just be my assumptions on the matter. Anakin will bring balance to the Force by fathering Luke, who will defeat the dark side of the Galaxy, or rather the pinnacle of it. I believe the Force to be unbalanced when even one jedi is corrupted by the dark side. The light side, as I perceive it, is not the 'good' side of the force as in direct opposition to the 'evil' dark side. The socalled light side is the middleground, balance. Whether the Force is fluxuating in other ways in and out of balance outside the sphere of Jedis I have yet to see evidence of in the movies, but I suspect it to be so. When the Force is in balance it's at peace, and a Jedi will feel the serenity of it. In this state the will of the Force is neither lacking, overflowing nor wanting of anything.

BCanr2d2 Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 It is all in GL's eye as to what balance is........ The Jedi in general don't use the Force in any way that would disrupt it, therefore when only Jedi exist, the Force remains balanced. With the Sith we have seen the shroud descend over the Jedi vision, that the use of the Force by the Sith, as it increases has effects on the Jedi, who are perceived as neutral Force users. So, to remove the Sith from using the Force would bring balance to the Force, giving back the Force powers that the Jedi had before the Sith upset that balance. We shouidn't see or think of the Jedi as the Yin and the Sith as the Yang. We should see the Jedi as neutral who use the Force passively, and Sith as Dark, who manifest the Force in destructive ways.

Jedi_Monk Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 he would make luke (bad way of sayin it huh?) and luke would kill the last sith. Ah, but Luke didn't kill the last Sith... Anakin did. Anakin is the Chosen One, not Luke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exar Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 my theory, is that palaptine was the one inbalancing the force because he had gained so much darkside power, and was training siths at the same time that there were few jedi around. it was anakins destiny to bring balance back into the force by killing palpatine. he was only motivated to do this and pushed back to the light because the emperor was going to kill his son. he saw that luke cared about him and tried to help him, and he would not let luke die the way his mother did, remember he swore he'd never let something like that happen again to someone he cared about. so to me, with what information the new trilogy has revealed, it seems like all the movies are telling of anakins destiny and how he rebalances the force, not luke. luke was just a catalyst for him to take the necessary actions, because it was anakin who actually killed palpatine, and thats where george lucas' tale ends.

gonk-raider Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 well lets not down play luke he was a great charater tho had alot of heart and curage.... i would be scared ****less going up against a guy known for taking out hte jedi order and countless lifes and had much much more experience and training in the arts of saber combat and using hte force in general he went from being a simple farm boy to the brightest beacon of the rebel alliance unfrotunately rotj was sorta lame since vader lost to a guy who had no saber training... you'd think his disiplin alone would be more then enough to stop the unexperienced luke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exar Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 luke was tapping in to a bit o' the darkside near the end there. vader wasnt ever trying to kill him of course, but was just being defensive. also, as a cyborg he wasnt as nimble as he used to be, and before he knew it he said the wrong thing, got luke all pissed, and was fighting a mirror image of himself at the age of twenty. even though luke had virtually no saber training, he was flailing the saber like a madman at the end. yeah it is kinda too bad that the new story has taken away some of lukes spotlight, making vader/anakin the primary character, but an interesting twist. watching vader is so much more interesting because he has a past and an actual personality now instead of being 'just the villian'.

Stryd0r Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 I think "bringing balance" is a bad thing. He kills all the jedi but Yoda and Obi-Wan leaving only 2 jedi. Also there are only 2 sith - him and the emperor. Therefore the Dark side and Light Side are in balance. That's just a theory though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
