was darthvader good on the inside

i know that he was good at the end of epsd. 6 but was he good the whole time ( take into mind what he said after cutting maces arm off "what have i done?!" maby the emporor was controlling his mind)

The emperor never drove it out of him fully. Once he joined palpatine, Anakin thought there was no turning back. From then on he was evil until luke saved him

i thought that anikain wouldnt give up that easily, i mean look at how he acts in epsd.1, 2, and 3.

with the pod race and padme being attacked and chaseing the bounty hunter um... i forgot her name but she can shape shift.

I wonder how much the emperor cared. My impression is that any emotion that would cause Darth to exercise his power more would be ok with Sid, as long as it never quite got to Darth feeling really "good' all the time. I think that even if there was a little bit of good there, a Sith isn't going to really care, because emotion and deception and even turning on each other had been the way of the Sith. Kinda like being in a prison gang.

I don't think Sid was ever controlling Darth's mind, I think Darth actually thought he was doing the galaxya favour, Sid's manipulated him enough into thinking that the Jedi were actually evil and doing everything for their own personal gain.
Anakin wanted to take control of the galaxy to make his own version of peace. The only way to do that (in his mind), was through Sidious and destroying the power-hungry/seeking Jedi.

Yes he was.

Zam Wessell? Think that was her name

Of course he was good on the inside. If he wasn't he wouldn't have fulfilled the prophecy.

If he did not have good inside of him he would not have been redeamed. Luke simply uncovered the good in Vader.

yes buy chopping his arm off

Good one cool movies

Could this thread be any gayier all the time. What have I done.

Was he good the whole time? Well...you decide...is blowing up a planet good? Is playing to your son's emotions good? Is hunting down entire species (Jedi, yeah, they are their own species in my books) good?

I personally wouldn't say so...

I don't think the people on the receiving ends of those attacks would say so either. Maybe Vader would say it was good, maybe he thought he was doing the galaxy a favour, he just might have. Who knows.

But was he good in the generally accepted definition of the word the whole time? No. No, he was not.

ANH:

Luke: How did my father die?

Obi-Wan: A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi knights. He betrayed and murdered your father. Now the Jedi are all but extinct. Vader was seduced by the dark side of the Force.

and

ESB:

Luke: Why didn't you tell me? You told me Vader betrayed and murdered my father.

Obi-Wan: Your father... was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force. He ceased to be Anakin Skywalker and *became* Darth Vader. When that happened, the good man who was your father was destroyed. So what I told you was true... from a certain point of view.

Hope this clears it up.

On the inside, absolutely, the good was buried beneath the evil. That is not to say that Vader's actions weren't wrong. He did act maliciously and was every bit influenced by the dark side, but the light side of the force never entirely vanished from him. It was there and he needed to be redeemed, in which Luke was able to do.

Here's what some French psychologists have to say. 😄
