I just say…actually nope. I gave my reason here.
Having Hayden appear IMO makes Anakins redemption less meaningful and deceptive. It almost pushes the idea that had he survived we are to think he will just return to the whiny young Jedi he was years ago which I think most of us will agree wouldnt be the case. IMO the redemption is more about a man turning his back on evil for good than simply reverting to who he had been many years before. The spirit Luke sees is the redeemed man who saved his life, not the whiny arrogant Jedi who would ultimately turn his back on good.
I agree. Plus, the whole point of Vader’s redemption is/was the fact that Luke saw potential there. Obi Wan had written Anakin off entirely, going so far as to declare Anakin dead by Vader’s hand (so to speak) and inferring that Luke’s only choice was to kill Vader. Luke refused to buy into this alleged separation between Vader and Anakin. Luke turned out to be right. There was ‘good in him’. Hence Shaw being the logical ghost.
The bigger problem for me is the fact that Luke became a Jedi by throwing his weapon away and refusing to kill the bad guys - even as his friends were being slaughtered outside. Yet Darth somehow gets to Jedi heaven by killing the bad guy? Jedi ethics give me a headache…
