Master_Shaitan posted:Now this may appear as a bit of an obscure thread but lets just run with it. We have all had ideas and theories about Star Wars which may or may not have come true after watching ROTS. I'll hold my hands up, for some time I believed that Mace Windu played a role in the creation of a clone army (though im yet to be proven wrong by hard core facts! lol). I thought before watching ROTS that there wouldnt really be any questions left, but I was wrong. Of course there are. We can find a question anywhere. But what about a real theory which changes the balance of the film and its characters? Did anything happen or not happen in the film that made you think 'outside the box'. Well, here is mine. Im not sure whether it can be proven wrong but if it cant - listen up George Lucas. ---------- I have a thought in my mind that suggests that Anakin Skywalker, a.k.a. Darth Vader, did not kill the younglings in the council chamber. Why, you ask? Firstly, it comes down to my hopes. Despite the fact that the idea of killing them is very strong and emotive, it just seemed too much to me. Could we ever forgive Vader for such a crime? Could he really have any good in him left? It just seemed too evil to me. Secondly, there has always been good in Anakin/Vader. There always was. What if he went against the order to kill them? What if he believed he could avoid it? I mean, killing the seperatists is one thing - but younglings? Thirdly, the more evil acts Anakin commits the more powerful he becomes with the dark side. Well, after doing that to younglings he should be extremely powerful - strong enough to kill Obi wan perhaps? Well, what if the reason he couldnt achieve this and be more powerful is because he didnt kill the younglings? Lastly, the line from Obi Wan puzzles me - "I saw a security recording of Anakin killing younglings". The footage that Obi wan see's I thought was of Anakin killing a few real jedi and padawans. I didnt see any younglings. Later Yoda says that "killed by clones this padawan was not". Now, I could be wrong. Im not sure whether Padawans can be younglings or not, but either way, I didnt think Obi Wan saw the footage of Anakin killing the younglings in the Chamber. Perhaps its just my imagination running wild - but a little part of me just hopes that Vader lead a few of those kids away, put them in a capsule with Jucosta Nu and let them fly off to a safe haven somewhere in the galaxy. "He said you have turned to the dark side and killed younglings" Maybe Obi Wan was wrong. Maybe he didnt see the slaughter. Maybe there was no slaughter. If that is the case, maybe we cant blame Anakin for saying: "Obi Wan is trying to turn you against me"! *Flame away or add your own ROTS conspiracy theory*
