He saw what was going to happen to Padme, and in his efforts to stop it from happening he made it happen. Seems kinda reminiscent of the "End of Timer's" plight, but hey.Holy crap what are you talking about mace windu's actions were against the Jedi way? Did you even see they movie?!?!
Not to mention the Jedi played by Samuel L. Jackson who went against the "Jedi Way" to kill the Sith who was "too dangerous to be alive"
Jedi kill sith, that is the Jedi way!!! What happened to darth maul in the first one? Who killed him? Who tried to kill count dooku in the second one? (Anikin, obi and yoda) who try to kill the palpatine after he turn vader and killed mace? (Yoda).
Killing sith is a non-issue heck anikin killed dooku with little hesitation after he literally 'disarmed' him x2/paid him back for taking his arm in the second movie. It's funny you mentioned the line ' he is much too dangerous to leave him alive' because that is exactly what palpatine said to him about dooku. And Annie took his head, but when his meal ticket was the one on the chopping block little orphan Annie chose the catalyst of his career over what was absolutely right.
George is a genius here(either by design or by default) because for the one who does not have solid standards here will only see a haze of grey as you do. Where those who know the 'Jedi code' will be able to see black and white.
Quote: (eerily reminiscent of the Christians in support of Death Penalty), making Anakin react in turn to prevent what he perceived to be the only way to save Padme, thus making him the villian by default even though he was right in preventing the death of the Sith based on the Jedi's beliefs in the first place (George W sorta played out his own version of this with the Iraqi war). All Anakin had, was a noble will to save the love of his life.which is why I suspect that there was that rule against Jedi marrying. Because 'love' or rather what Annie though love to be was little more than a selfish indulgence, that for a time brought down his galaxy.
Quote:He was tricked by the very Sith lord he had protected from being unjustly killed, into believing that they would bring peace to the galaxy themselves, and peace for the future of his family, which up to the third movie had been being threatened by the Republics' inaction in the face of a threat that the Sith had fabricated himself, in order to gain control of the Senate (Makes me think of the Patriot Acts for some reason hmm).Annie was not tricked he was conditioned to want what the sith offered, and choose selfishly rather than stand his post.
Quote:The Jedi failed Anakin.no anikins betrayal of the Jedi started with his love a padme. Anikin failed the Jedi.
Quote:Anakin failed Padme, and Obi Wan just plain out failed at life.your insane. No obi, no luke. No luke no "chosen one who brought balance to the force." He'd be a pile of bones next to aunt rue and uncle Owen. And the Death Star would have not only blown up alderan but the rebel base on the moon of yavin 4 as well, thus ending the rebellion. Ensuring 1000 year reich under palpatine.
Quote:The Republic failed because it gave all its' power to one person and were self serving, not servants. The Jedi failed because they undermined their own belief system and lost the confidence of the "chosen one".the republic failed long before power it was handed over to palpatine. Corruption is the death of every republic in history. Before Annie, the force was Jedi heavy. Annie brought balance in that the sith rose to power clearing out the Jedi heavy side of the force, and luke cleaned out the sith. The prophesy pointed to luke not anikin. As luke brought real balance and galactic peace.
