I know lots of people say Vader because he's the one that killed the emperor. Luke was more just the lackey that helped get to that point...

ANd make a poll...

Vader...he killed the Sith master, and came back to the light side of the Force, leaving no Sith.

Anakin Skywalker did eventually bring "balance" to the Force. Sure, lots of Jedi wound up dying in the process, but, you know, no pain no gain. The midichlorians just have a twisted sense of humor.


Note, he didn't really bring balance to the Force - it was thrown way off balance, in favor of the Light Side. If it were balanced, you'd have your two Sith and two Jedi to match them. That'd be balanced.

Or one Jedi and another one made out of antimatter, with the Anti-Force not as his not ally. He's especially dangerous when wielding his Darksaber.

Vader was the Chosen One until he went down the dark path.... He redeemed himself by giving his life to save Luke.

Now that doesn't make Luke the Chosen One, but it does make him amazing in the idea that no matter what Vader had done, Luke had faith in the man that was his father was still there....

Vader.

I wish they would redo episodes 4 through 6. I never liked Mark Hamill as an actor.

I say Vader, he did balance it, it was way in favor of the light side, he did pretty much bring it down to two good, two evil.
Obiwan and Yoda
Palpatine and Vader

Later Yoda pops off, up comes Luke.

Oh, and George Lucas confirmed a while ago that Vader was meant to be the chosen one.

vader, duh

the only way for anyone to get close enough to the emporer to defeat him was for him to turn to the dark side and become his apprentice, that way he wasn't expecting it when anikan turned "good" again and whacked him

anikan was the chosen one

I think Lucas was just making sh!t up as he went along...especially with the prequels. There was no cohesion and nothing that made sense between them and the originals. Hell, the animated series "Clone Wars" made more sense.

Yeah. A "great" and "powerful" Jedi Knight, and he loses to a Sith apprentice. Way to go.

It's just a good thing that the Empire has such lax safety codes. Several hundred foot dropoff to a dangerous reactor? Yeah, I think that a small waist-high railing ought to be safe enough for that.
I'm also surprised that a Sith Lord wouldn't be able to stop himself from falling, or at least sense something useful to hold onto on the way down.

Well, yeah. The entire thing is a work of fiction, you know. :p
