Regarding Balance & the death of Palpatine & Vader

The thing is the question is: is balance restored with Sideous death alone? And you both said that it was restored when Sideous died and then added on that Vader had to die to. Do you see what Im getting at here?

OK, lets do the math here. Anakin's 'Sith Trial' was to wipe out ALL Jedi, which he does quite effectively. Noone would fault him for taking out the Seperatists, esp Gunray, after they to take out Padme. But, not only does he kill the bad guys, he kills his comrades (jedi), children (younglings), and wife. AND he allows the biggest bad guy to live. Now what known spree/serial killer can you think of that you can say with 100% certainty was rehabilitated and would NEVER do such a thing again?

Yes, IMHO all traces of the Sith must be gone for balance to be acheived..

Ah but see I dont think Anakin is a Sith any longer. He's been redeemed by Luke.

But he IS human, so you cannot discount the possibilty that he may go back to the Dark Side in the future. Humans screw up, often more than once. Look at addicts.. go into rehab over & over again for the exact same thing. Happens all the time. Ergo it COULD happen in this case as well...

Yes like what i said before

And again
ever luke used the dark side to help himself

I thing it is when Palpatine is killed because he was so more powerful than anyone else alive. I think Vader would have been extremely powerful had it not been for his injuries. But once the all powerful Palpatine was dead, Anakin's death meant little to the balance of the force.

Sorry if that wasnt too clear.

You guys are being too literal. Remember this is fantasy. And it is the story about the fall of Anakin Skywalker and his redemption. I just honestly dont think George meant him to be redeemed and then screw up again.

And Uber that's EU and it doesnt count.

I think the Chosen one was a Martyr, a force enomoly that further unbalanced the force to inevitably balance it in the end, so he must die too to balance the force

well thats probably the point of him getting killed
so he couldnt screw up again

Not really. In a galaxy filled to overflowing wioth aliens & droids GL chose to make Anakin/Vader human. Therefore all human traits and charteristics are applicable...

um what exactly is eu?

I think you are still by-passing Georges intent Bilb. 😕

If it's not in the movies it's EU.

But every single thing I have said was shown ONSCREEN!!

Wait a sec, I may have misunderstood what you meant about Luke using the dark side. What instance are you talking about Uber?
