ROTJ continues ESB’s theme of choice, free will, and rejecting a dark destiny. Luke is taunted that it’s his “destiny” to turn dark and replace Vader, he’s told that the Emperor is now his master, but he disproves all that and stays true to who he is. Yoda and the Emperor both tell Luke that turning back from the dark side is impossible, Vader says “it’s too late for me,” but at the end Vader overcomes the dark side and sacrifices himself to save Luke.
