I think people are taking the HanSolo-like statement too literally. Anakin can't be a refined character, because he needs to be reckless and have some anger management issues. He certainly should not be a rogue or scoundrel either. My comparison stems from Anakin being the kind of guy who would chase down an entire squad of troops by himself to save his friends or ride out to almost certain doom on a frozen wasteland to save his friend. I don't see him as a thief or pirate, but someone who jump into the fray to save someone from being hurt. Not for glory or payment, but because it is the right thing to do.

oh and CRAP i was really starting to dig the idea of getting away from Tatooine except for one silly Obiwan line from ANH...Owen thought Anakin should have stayed HERE and not gotten involved. As I said...CRAP. Erik I really liked your relocating idea...can you make this line not a lie?
