"You're not All Powerful"
"WELL I SHOULD BE"
explains him so well

[OnlyPP]

I love your portrayal of Vader. His character is so intriguing because his hatred doesn't come from others most of the time, it's actually his hatred at what he has become.

[careearstare]

The entire bases of Star Wars is about the chosen one Anakin Skywalker and his journey to bring balance to the force. The first three movies was about Vader and his redemption as Anakin, the prequels was Anakin's tragedy his love for his friends his passion all taken away and his ultimate fall to the dark side because he lost everything. The story we followed wasn't Star Wars but the story of Anakin Skywalker, which is probably why most Star Wars fans dislike the sequels.

Anakin has to be the most well designed Character EVER

[hokutoshinken-chrisarmstro]

Anakin Skywalker is the most well written character in movie history. This video is an absolute roller coaster of emotions.

10:04 THIS HURTS. 10 minutes of video and than everything culminate in one short forgotten sentence.

“Goodbye old friend”
Obiwans last words spoken as true brothers and friends

[ryyvmli]

it hurts so badly to think that

anakin hoped to free shmi from slavery, only to find her dying in his arms. he tried to prevent harm from cmg ahsoka's way, but she chose to leave the order no matter how hard he tried. he wanted to save padme from death, hoping to have a happy family, thinking palpatine could help him. but he ended up all alone to bear with the suffering. until luke came along and saved him, but ultimately dying in the process 😔

When I was a kid, I admire the heroes. As I grew up, I understand the villain.

Obi-Wan broke the left side of Vader's mask. Ahsoka broke the right side. Both couldn't bring their old friend Anakin back, but Luke was able to completely take off his mask, finally bringing his father back to the light.






PS. Happy you uploaded the video with better audio. Thanks SWFT, it's even better now.👍

[pinkttamburini]

“Show me a hero and I’ll write you a tragedy” F Scott Fitzgerald. Never a truer word spoken 😢

[theknight]

“Anakin is gone, i am what remains”

This hit so hard man
