ST If Anakin brought balance to the force how are there Sith in Episode 6?

thanks for the explanations

 

I assume you mean 7.

And we don't know if the Knights Of Ren or Snoke are even Sith at this point.

Also, in before the lock.

 

Well, if we're actually talking about RotJ, then "balance" = Dead Jedi and Darkness is better anyway yolo ( ) and Luke screwed up the prophecy. #edgemasterposting

If we're talking about TFA, which I assume we are, then the answer's simple: the new baddies aren't Sith. They're something else.

And yeah, in before the lock.

 

It's the midifalloonicons.

Think about it.

 

Hasn't this already gotten a thread?

 

actually we do know. not sith.

 

There aren't any.

Explanation over.

 

Oh. When was this revealed? Not doubting you, just legitimately curious.

 

a jj interview a while back. no sith. knights of ren.

 

it was out of balance the whole time they just didn't know it. they believed the sith were dead. they felt the power of the dark side growing later because palps was right under their nose.

 

Maybe Episode 7 is what happens when the Force is in balance.

We assumed "balance" meant peace, but obviously that isn't the case.

 

This will go that dark side tomb luke is guarding in episode XXV

 

yes because of their actions but as long as there were sith around the force was out of balance. i don't think they noticed any difference because the sith weren't actively in control. once palps was in control the balance really began to shift because the sith were in essence controlling the galaxy.

 

Kylo Ren is part of an order called Knights of Ren , not Sith

 

thanks guys, yes i meant episode 7..sorry if the title is misleading

i ran a few searches on the internet regarding this and things are very vague - i hope however that this will be settled in the next trilogy..and we get to understand how anakin actually brought balance...(if it is by the destruction of all sith, i am assuming there will not be any sith in the next movies)

thanks again

 

we already know that.

 

It's in the script.

 

He brought balance in the respect of their being no Jedi or no Sith. He wiped out the Jedi, with Obi-Wan and Yoda dying during the films. He wiped out the Sith with himself and Sidious. Luke is the first of the NEW Jedi order, not the old. Same thing with the Knights and such. So he technically brought balance as it pertained to the Jedi and Sith ways of thinking and using the Force, as both Orders are completely gone by the end of Jedi. 0 vs 0 .

and even right after ROTS, there was still balance - 2 Jedi's remaining, and 2 Sith Lord's remaining.

So I look at it as his destiny was fulfilled, as concerning the Jedi and Sith Orders. the New Jedi Order and the Knights of Ren are completely separate, and don't involve the prophecy at all. or something, LOL!

Of course the real world answer is JJ doesn't care or acknowledge any type of Chosen One Prophecy.

 

I've never given two siths about the whole "bringing balance to the force" or the lame "rule of two" to which the Sith apparently tried (halfheartedly) to adhere.

The whole "balance of the force" notion is entirely vague, to the point of suggesting it's actually nonsense.

It's too bad Lucas made things so unnecessarily convoluted.

He should've stuck to the simple trope of "it's the Good Guys who try to prevent oppression and undue suffering VS. the Bad Guys who--in their pursuit of ultimate pow-ah--gleefully step on the throats of the innocent."

The same stories could've essentially been told without the "balance" thing. Both the Good Guys and the Bad Guys use the Force--a dispassionate thing that chooses no sides and shows no concern for morality. It's very mysterious. The one thing clear about it is that it is what it is. A tad Gnostic I suppose, but hey...
