As far as the will of the force issue I think there is something you forgot to mention.
The OT was not about Luke as most people think. It was about he redemption of Anakin Skywalker. All 6 movies are about the rise, fall, and redemption of Anakin. He was the chosen one. It was the will of the force that directed his destiny not Lukes.
Just remember the simple fact was that Anakin Is the Chosen one therefore it is his destiny which shaped the Galaxy. In the end he made the Galaxy a better place even though for a while while the Empire ruled it looked as though the Force was wrong.
You guys agree or not?
Vader does get a lot of screen time. Take empire, it cuts between what han and co. are doing, luke's training, and Vader. Anakin is still very much a main character, but he's just doing simple things that don't require a lot of exposition. Luke however, is training to become a Jedi, this needs lots of explaining. Also, Luke is the one that's supposed to bring down Vader. So its still Anakin's story, its just been expanded to include his son as well. His son is still very much a part of his story.

What the heck makes anyone think that losing midi-chlorians reducs your force power? I don't believe people are so literal about this. Midi-chlorians don't MAKE youu powerful. Inject them into someone and they don't turn him into a force God. They are an indication of someone's power. Reagrdless of whether Anakin loses his count after his accident or not- and I don't think he will, I think they would just reside in his remaining organic parts- this would make not the slightest difference to his power with the Force at all.Really... don't read too much into midi-chlorians.
After reading GL's interview in Vanity Fair. Just wanted to rub it in Ush.
