I've been informed by an unreliable source that it was Yoda.

So you know the EU equivalent to the Chosen One, but not the Chosen One from the prequels? Nevermind, they are sh*t.

Is the 'prophacy' anything like the Prophecy?

Ignorence, indeed.

The details of the prophecy are a bit vague, but I don't particularly believe in it when you try to figure EU into the mix. For the movies alone, yes, balance seems to be maintained. But in EU, balance is an impossibility. I personally think that's a more realistic approach anyhow.

I like this explanation:

Anakin was supposed to bring balance, he did. The balance was so strong, even the Sith returning didn't affect it again..

In essence they did by existing. True, the darkness hasn't seemingly overshadowed the light for any extended amount of time since RotJ, but then again it never really did before that until the Jedi Civil War. If perhaps the prophecy is meant to be vague or all-encompassing, it could be that a Chosen One is selected each time the dark side seems to dominate, and then restores balance for a millenia or so. You could draw parallels between Revan and Anakin in a sense.

One explanation I do admit I dislike: The idea that 'noone said it had to stay balanced' which kinda ruins the idea....Anakin was supposed to be a unique one of a kind, after all.

One could make the argument after the whole Palpatine thing, there hasn't been a 'real' Sith since

Why do you use capslock? Aren't you familiar with netiquette?

And in any case, the answer is not around for us to share so we can only speculate. To that I submit that the answer is not important; it is what it is, and it has a purpose. Who cares if it came from a fortune cookie or a Jedi master?

What Janus is apparently saying is, this crap is comparable to the Matrix, where there isn't one "chosen one", but a few everytime something bad happens. I think this is rather unoriginal and the Anakin idea was great, if the EU didn't ruin it. But as LS said, one could make the case that the real sith died during the battle of Endor and the rest are pretenders, as stated by the holocrons in Legacy.

Really, I think the whole idea about the Chosen One prophecy detracts from the overall good things that come from the films. In any series where a similar type hero is used (Such as the horrible Matrix, or Harry Potter, for example), the storyline becomes more and more about the hero's destiny and less and less about other issues the series raises. In the case of the Matrix, the ideals of freedom, control, and survival became absolutely moot by the last movie (Which I still regret watching). Likewise, Harry Potter's all about... Well, Harry Potter. That's probably the intent, and it's not badly executed. But there's no real depth to the great and imaginative characters, background story, and depth when you make all this great stuff and then make it all about one person's destiny. Just undermines the effort, IMO.

And the Sith after Sidious were pretty much pretenders, but the same could be said for those after the Hyperspace War, or the Jedi Civil war, etc. The Sith as a collective have been reshaped many many times.

I wouldn't say the Sith post Hyperspace war were Pretenders-given they officially recognized Nadd and Kun- and even further than that....Palpatine was certainly considered an honored member of the line of SIth Lords, as was Bane

It's a matter of point of view; each Sith "line" was fundamentally different in either structure, approach, or such. Exar Kun was nothing like the ancient Sith who came before him, though Nadd was more like them than the others. Revan and Malak's Sith were entirely different, more like a combination between the Galactic Empire and the Brotherhood. And the former and latter were different in approach and structure too. Then there's Sion's assassins, Nihilus and his solitary request. Traya's approach that the Force must be destroyed.

Well, Exar was pretty like the Sith before him, in regards to intrigue, over all goals and more effective in approach and was recognized by the spirits of the Ancients....Bane and Palpatine at least as well....as far as official canon goes, the line is pretty much continuous down to Palpatine, I believe.
