I have a question? Does anyone think that the reason that darth Vada never really becomes most powerful Jedi/Sith is due to the fact he is basicly only half a man? I ask this as the Emperor is conviced he is gonna become more powerful than him, but after 20ish years he never does.
Im sure there are reasons behind this and people have probably answered this question before, but I havent read them answers 😎
You could explain this by saying that Naakin's confidence and drive was diminished. He likely still had the ability, just not the motivation to amass that sort of power.
Its kind of like the mothers that can lift up cars when thier kid it trapped underneath. The power is always there, its just a matter of finding where it is and unleashing it.
Anakin simply stopped caring and lost his independance.
I thot it was because the emperor did have some kind of a control over vader thru the suit. Anakin became handicaped and was dependent on the suit for his existance. Ironically that is his weakness per se.
Vader did say, " I MUST obey my master". I think there must be a reason for the emphasis for the "must", coming from someone who once said he would overthrow the emperor.
I dont buy that argument. If force actually come from midichlorions, were looking at midicholorion density (its not number of midicholorions as that means bigger people would be stronger in the force....Yoda)
If you lose some limbs, thats not going to change the density in your blood. (Unless his blood was diluted with some sort of synthetic chemical) Hence, Anakins physical capability was not altered.
The change in his power came form an internal issue...a will issue. He is no longer independant. He was crushed.
Originally posted by queeqHe also make that comment to Pad doesnt he before he goes all pissed at her. He had always desired to have a galaxy that would be free and just for everyone. Though that goes a bit crapy, that was his desire in ep2/3.
What change? In ESB he rules supreme and even plots to take over the Empire, for crying out loud. No peeps, this is a major plot hole.
Theres just no real continuity in the whole thing, as Ana he wanted to over though Emp with Pad and he wantd to do the same in ESB. But in ANH hes a lap dog and so is he in ROTJ in truth. I dont believe that the Emp had any real control over him, so why in 20years has he nevr killed him in his sleep or just slapped the git around a bit
