Maybe Lucas wanted to make a trilogy about a hero with feet of clay. Why did Shakespeare write Hamlet, who's little more than a lunatic with a mother fixation? Why write Macbeth, a warrior-hero who orders for Macduff's children to be slain? Do all heroes have to be whiter than white and whinge about power converters?
I much prefer Anakin to Luke, who's flaws are more believable and is ultimately a much more interesting character.
