In The Empire Strikes Back Vader says to Luke that he should join him and that they can rule the galaxy together, and that Luke can kill Sidious. But than in Return Of The Jedi Vader saves Sidious :/

i just thought of this, I think the reason vader saved sidious is because he knew that if he didnt, he would be in a pinch, cuz hed have no one to help him fight luke and luke obviously wasnt going to join him. All along, i think he didnt like the emporer, because he wasnt able to save padme.

well yeah i guess you maybe right...
but my theory is not new... depends on how ppl understand balance - pure light or light and dark...

there was disbalance - luke and leia - both force sensitive and strong in the force but there wasnt any evil dude at that time ...
in conclusion: anakin brought balance and luke - disbalance :P


I find your conception of "balance" to be wrong. I think balance just means uncorrupted. I dont think light or dark side is evil in nature. They just have opposing beliefs. The jedi have a more "under control" belief and the sith have a "let it all loose' belief. This leads them to fight as the jedis see the sith as dangerous and sith see the jedis as a threat to their power. The reason the dark side seems evil in nature is because often dark force users are evil because the believe they have ultimate power. The jedi are less evil because they stay under control. Not all sith have wanted to rule the earth. Like in kotor 2. Anakin brought balance to the force by destroying the people corrupting it. Those were the emporer and himself.

thats cause Vader would need help destroying sidious, because Sidious is too strong for Vader alone

yeah, they where wrong in interpreting the Prophecy, Luke was the Chosen One, Anakin was merely a much needed pawn in the game of the Force :P

(BTW, there is no raw, hard cold data to confirm this, just the way I look at it)

Wait one second... in episode 1, when Anakin's
mother was asked about the father, she simply said that "there was no father" and that she had raised him by herself. unless I am missing a part, I belive she never says there was no father to create him, only no father to raise him.

Actually, this is the widely accepted theory of Anakin's conception, since no father is mentioned whatsoever. There are various reasons why people thought this, but I felt the idea of the whole Jesus-birth to be ridiculous so I didn't look into them enough to be able to back it up with data.

Nevertheless, there is circumstantial evidence that points towards this.

Are you referring to Darth Vader protecting Emperor Palpatine when Luke swings at him with his lightsaber after the Emperor has been taunting him?

if so, that was to show that Darth Vader has more than just a superficial conflict between his son and the Emperor. The Emperor gave him life, purpose, and vision. He gave him goals in his life as well. Essentially, the Emperor gave him everything (though he took everything as well, but Palpatine is skilled with words and so Vader may not realize this so clearly).

However, Vader still has some connection to his son. Also, it is the way of the Sith to usurp their Master.

Basically what I mean by all this is that Vader had no clear-cut choice. He couldn't make up his mind who to side with. He did want Luke to join him and rule the Galaxy together with his son. However, was also very much under the power of Palpatine's machinations. Therefore, he was not able to simply "let" Luke kill the Emperor in that way.

Also, let's not forget that Luke denied Vader's request to rule the Galaxy. To let Luke kill the Emperor and then have Luke say, "Haha just kidding, no Galaxy for you" would be awful. Vader had to know that Luke was on his side. Luke had to turn to the Dark Side before he killed the Emperor. As such, Darth Vader could never allow Luke to kill the Emperor in such a way.
