And pray tell who exactly are these “fans” again. Are they those who grew up with Star Wars and do not like what’s been happening to it. Or are they the other “fans”?
First, as already stated above, you got the most iconic quote ever wrong. Second, “Vader had almost convinced the powerful young Force user to turn to the dark side”? Not to my recollection. Third, who cares what some random people posted on Reddit?
The person who wrote this duma** article is no fan. No fan believes that Anakin doesn’t matter. Of course he does. And to the one who had the audacity to defend Rey taking the Skywalker name. Go back to your make believe Disney Star Wars, she didn’t deserve to slide over the sand at his home, never mind take on the legendary Skywalker name.
I can’t stand the sequel trilogy it ruined everything George Lucas did his work is legendary if you take Anikan out of the story because some woke fans don’t like him the entire story would change because Because the prequels story is about his turn to the dark side the originals are based around Luke’s journey to stop the empire but once he learns the truth about his father he decides to help redeem him and turn him back to the light Luke through his weapon down and even said I’m a Jedi like my father before me and it’s not until Vader See’s the sacrifice Luke makes and the torture of palpatine’s sith lighting vader struggles for a second and makes his decision to throw the emperor down the shaft but luke was never once close to turning to the dark side but to please the woke people out there Disney takes this self sacrifice and ruins what Luke and vader had done Rey is not a Skywalker it she is a marysue she didn’t train really until the third movie she beats a trained Jedi and dark side user Kylo Ren which made no sense nothing she does in the force awakens makes any sense about her abilities but the more meaningful thing she could have done is take the name palpatine a name that has so much hate and darkness in it’s past Skywalker isn’t a name of sadness it’s the name the rebels looked up to and even during the prequels Anikan his the face of the Jedi he was hero to everyone that’s why He never told anyone after he was in the suit besides his son because the name was a symbol of hope for the galaxy so keep writing these articles to trash on the prequels and originals to please the woke people who don’t truly care about star wars and hate Anikan only because he’s a man
I think everyone forgets that Anakin was created by Palpatine. The movies are really about Palpatine’s, Vader, Luke, Leia are from Palpatine.
Palpatine created Anakin as a super force user and turned him to the dark side in order to transfer his essence into Anakin’s body and use that power to defeat Yoda.
Ask yourself why is it so important for Palpatine to make Anakin his apprentice? What is Anakin’s role in Palpatine’s plan? Is to kill all the Jedi? Clones took care of that. Need the strongest apprentice? Palpatine’s looking to live forever, a Sith apprentice is supposed to kill his master, is Anakin really the best candidate? (Honestly if I were a Sith Lord I would have picked Obi-Wan).
No Palpatine intends to use Anakin, as he used Dooku and Maul, but Anakin was to be his vessel in which No one would be able to challenge his power. He tells Yoda, you won’t stop me, my apprentice will be more powerful than both of us combined. Why did he say that? He runs from Yoda, why? Because Anakin hadn’t completed his sacrifice yet and become a full Sith Lord. Once Vader has killed Padme and become a full Sith Lord Palpatine’s plan to take Vader’s body is complete.
This is why Darth Vader wears a helmet, and Palpatine allows himself to be disfigured so that if Palpatine is killed he can transfer to Vader’s body and no one would be able to tell the difference.
Please just stop! As a prequel kid, I am ecstatic that Hayden Christensen is reprising his role as Anakin/ Vader, and the timing of this article just seems too suspicious. Like they want to incite the masses who were originally dissatisfied with his performance. Oh, we hate you, we love you, no wait we hate you again. Whatever. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but for God’s sake quit condemning Anakin’s character, just because Disney took a steaming dump all over the saga with their pandering and only resurrected the most marketable characters of the franchise (i.e., Vader, Yoda, R2…you know the ones you see on literally EVERYTHING) Just because Disney disrespected Anakin and tried to make him irrelevant with their haphazard, mediocre story- telling doesn’t mean it’s a bandwagon everyone else needs to hop on 🙄🙄🙄
Lol i live this article, it’s title is “Star Wars Fans are Convinced That Anakin Doesn’t Matter” but then it goes on to show exactly one comment that reinforces that, while showing another 5 that directly refute it.
George Lucas himself has stated the entire original 6 films were about the fall and redemption of Anakin. I’m guessing Mr Lucas might know a thing or two more than some random reddit user about who is important to the story. We as actual fans have more than enough to argue over, original trilogy, prequels, sequels, I think we can all agree that Anakin/Vader is highly important.
Well in my book at a long time fan of Star Wars till this crappy last trilogy came out. Anakin will always matter in my book. For me Star Wars is episode 1 through 6 and 7th through nine are just aberrant junk. Rogue one was really good and solo was decent. It wasn’t the actors that was the problem for episodes 7 through 9, it was the writing was horrible beyond with too many plot holes and social justice junk added. JJ Abrams try to salvage what he could from the debacle especially from episode 8 but even he couldn’t put Humpty back together again. Ryan Johnson should never make another Star Wars movie ever again but Disney doesn’t give a s***.
Blood_Sister is a moron. I usually don’t comment too much but had too when I read this stupid comment. OF COURSE ANAKIN MATTERS IDIOT! WITHOUT ANAKIN SKYWALKER THERE IS NO STAR WARS.
Comments for ‘Star Wars’ Fans Are Convinced Anakin Skywalker Doesn’t Matter
Kelvington
Just as a reminder there IS NO… “Luke, I am your father” scene in Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back (1980).
There IS however a scene where Vader says, “No, I am your father” to Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back (1980).
This is not an insignificant detail.
Jaybo
Oh… Such a pedant. Rolls eyes.
Breaks 4th wall…
That’s actually what I was going to point out but since I have been beaten to it, I’ll take the high ground.
Oh course Anakin matters. That’s like saying The Fonz doesn’t matter In Happy Days or Arnold in Different Strokes.
It’s their show.

And pray tell who exactly are these “fans” again. Are they those who grew up with Star Wars and do not like what’s been happening to it. Or are they the other “fans”?
Wing
That’s funny, because I’ve been a fan of Star Wars all my life and I don’t think Anakin matters ……..
I KNOW he matters. It doesn’t matter what the hel those morons at Lucas Films Disney say Anakin Skywalker is was and always will be the chosen one

First, Vader did NOT say, “Luke, I am your father”. He said, “No, I am your father”.
Next, who cares what those “fans” say? They’re probably Disney shills trying to play down Anakin’s importance in the saga.
wtf
I think they are paid for a few dollars, or cents even
