I've been thinking on the whole "Power to continue life" that Anakin so desperatly wanted, and I've been wondering if it's not the power to keep the body alive forever, but the ability to put one soul in another body, like Palpy does to Bevel Lemelisk. (He and Qui Xux were the brain-childs of the Death Star, and Palpy Tortures him by killing him then putting his soul in a clone body. It's mentioned in Darksaber. Yes yes, I know it's in an EU book, but it actually happens during ESB, after Palpy was angry that the Death Star was blown up.) Consider this, and post opinions, but enough of dissing EU, since it actually doesn't happen during an EU period.

you should read the sticky at the top of the forum talking about cannon and EU in this section, basically anything not directly mentioned in the movies, scripts screenplays, and novelazations of such is considered EU

Seeing as it was wriitten by someone other than GL and that it isnt shown in ESB, that would make it EU, read the EU thread at the top of the page if this is unclear
What I gather from it, the ability he wanted to learn, actually wasn't to create life, it was to keep people from pure death, ie, Qui-Gon's trick he taught Yoda and Obi-Wan. Think about it. If Anakin had stayed with the light side just a little bit longer, he'd have found this out and could have adapted it to save P...well, she wouldn't have died. If Anakin would have stayed with the light side, Padme would be alive, he'd know the trick, Sidious would be dead, the Republic would prosper, and Luke and Leia would be born into the Jedi Order.
It's not seen in the movie, but it happens _during_ the movie. In the Imperial City on Coruscant. Maybe I oughta write lucas and tell him to include Palpy torturing Lemelisk to make you happy.

well if you were to do that, and he then reedited the movie to include this (which at this point i could actually see happening), at that point it would become canon but untill then its still just EU
Yes, I'd love as much to see Lemelisk get bitten and torn from Pihrana beetles..gouging his eyes out to the point of his death...*Urk* I'm gonna hurl...
