The Prophecy

Searched, didn't find.

The Prophecy states that the chosen one will come along and bring balance to the force, correct? Well all along we've been assuming it's Anakin, but what if it wasn't him? What if it was someone else more powerful than Anakin and therefore able to influence the balance more than Anakin could?

What if it was referring to Luke? Thoughts on this?

its anakin.

This has been answered long ago........ANAKIN....

Anakin fulfilled the prophecy by killing all the Jedi and the Sith, leading to the creation of the New Jedi order by Luke. A better Jedi Order where Jedi were not so restricted by rules on love, etc. The Jedi had to be wiped out because, they were not as strong as before, and a lot of their morals were screwed up.

So anakin killed the last of the Jedi and Sith...leading to the new order...

(well thats my theory and it works unless they screw it up in episode 3)
because...if not then he is a bad chosen one because he is part of the reason that sidious took over...if it wasn't for anakin...Sidious would not have taken over... and it would seem stupid for the prophecy guy to fullfill a prophecy after he was the cause of some of it. So there has to be a reason for him being part of the Jedi's extintion.

Definately Anakin.

When I first saw they talking about the Prophecy in TPM I was thinking "They think it's Anakin, when it really must be Luke". Didn't anyone else think like that before GL said the opposite?

nop, sorry

Anakin, as confirmed by GL, and much of theshakl's thoughts are EU and don't really, apply, and calling the Jedi's essential rules about love 'restricted'; in a pejorative sense is to totlaly miss the point of what GL is saying, which is also what Anakin did, which is why he went bad. That rule is there for damn good reason.

The Jedi did NOT have to be wiped out; that is ludicrous.

i wanted to make this thread also.

it doesn't make any sense that anakin is the chosen one.

and dont tell me that the explanation is that he fullfilled the prophecy by kiling sidious in ROTJ, because i think it's stupid(i found that answer on the search button🙂 )!

my view:

jedi = sith => balance;

before and in time of TPM:

jedi > sith => no balance;

anakin turns to the dark side and kills all the jedi except yoda and obi1:

2 jedi = 2 sith => balance???

if that was his purpose then it is soooo stupid;

if i am mistaken, please explain this to me, because it is bothering me so much 🙂. i need an answer.

but please some logical explanation!!!!

Look, Lucas has made it plainly clear, it's Anakin. Just because some people dont like it that way doesnt mean its going to change to suit them. Time to accept it and move on.

I think it's Jar Jar, clearly. Without Jar Jar they never would have found Anakin and without Jar Jar Palpatine couldn't have gotten the power to declare war against the Sepratists. Therefor Jar Jar created Luke and the Empire.

hehe.

@JP:

i now it's anakin, and it's ok by me, but i dont understand HOW!

did GL explain HOW is anakin the chosen one?

what actions made him the chosen one?

what did anakin do so we can say that he is the chosen one?

that is my question(s).

1) How? THe force (midichlorians) created him
2) we're gonna see ani really show his skill in Ep 3 in regard to flying, relexes & saber techniques, not to mention the pod race in TPM, the mind control of the reek in Ep 2, talk of saving Obi in Ep 2, etc....
3)In ROTJ he kills the emporer which is what brings the force back into balance. Luke is what prompted him to do it, but it was Anakin that ultimately destroyed Palps/Sids

ANAKIN IS THE CHOSEN ONE

NO!
you dont understand my question!

what actions did he take to bring force back into balance?

i think that killing sidious to bring force back into balance is the wrong answer! ( and stupid also )

ok, so he turns and kills all the jedi, and all the kids, and he continues killing for 20 years, and at the end he kills 1 bad guy, and that is the chosen one??!?!?!

please!

That's the entire point though. Sidious may be one guy, but his presence is so terrifying and he has so much power he has corrupted the very force itself. His existence is a virus in the force, much similar to the whole Agent Smith thing in the Matrix.
Anakin is the chosen one because even though he became pure evil and did all of those terrible things, he still managed to love and care for someone to the point that he gave his life for them, and he did that for Luke in Return of the Jedi.

I see what u mean about anakin killing paps being stupid..thats why it is my theory that the jedi needed to be killed as well...

cause you know....Anakin and other jedi might have killed paps if he didn't turn to the dark side in the first place...

well, whatever, what can u do..i still think it's stupid.

the chosen one becomes evil, and at the end, he does one thing, and that makes it all ok, thousand of lives he took, corruption, power, death, destruction...

the ot was so much better, and i think that GL has ran out of ideas because of his obsession with digital effects( but that is for some other thread, i wouldnt want to start it now🙂 )

thanks you for your opinnions

Well I wouldnt say everythin's peachy at the end of ROTJ. Had Vader lived he would have most certainly had to stand trail for his crimes. But that's EU which does not pertain to canon. Honestly, he's the chosen one because that's how Lucas wrote him. By killing the Sith Lord running the show and turning back to the light side himself, he effectively wipes out the entire Sith population. SEE?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but does being being the Chosen one say anything about him being a fair, balanced, or even particularly good person? Being the Chosen one, in my eyes, doesn't mean anything at all, except that he was chosen to bring balance to the force, by killing Sidious. His actions before then are completely irrelevant as far as the Prophecy goes. All that matters is that he completes his part by restoring the balance.

when mace, obi1 and yoda talk about him in ep2 it sounds like they assume that he has to be good and that it is foretold in the prophecy
(and it's probably jedi prophecy, not sith prophecy 🙂 )
