sounds reasonable to me …and wasn’t there something in the prequels about a "chosen one "?
The really weird thing about the chosen one was TPM started with utter peace.
Would have made more sense if say, the galaxy had been at war for centuries, like in KOTOR. I can only assume the prophecy was calling for “balance” by the force supporting his turn to the dark side and killing all but 2 Jedi and 2 Sith.
To my understanding, the dark side isn’t good. With the light side, the force is a Jedi’s ally. With the dark side, the force is an abused power. I don’t understand why a sentient force would support “balance”, because at no point does the dark side appear good. The Jedi were flawed yes, but partially turning to the dark side wouldn’t solve any of their problems.
It’s not weird considering the darkness that was rising in the shadows, and the eventual war and bloodshed that followed in the wake of TPM.
Yes, but to Jedi not believing the Sith are dead why has the chosen one arrived now? The only reasonable interpretation is that “balance” does not mean destruction of the dark side but equality between light and dark, in which case the Jedi have far more than the Sith. Did they know Anakin would turn evil all along?
Or are they just really, really stupid?
