For the most part, Star Wars fans assume that Darth Vader was pretty smart. After all, he became a trained Jedi from a technical child prodigy and was a chosen one with a special fate. However, the blunt truth is that Darth is Vader astonishing stupid, something confirmed by Revenge of the Sith. This film showed Palpatine offer to save Padme’s life before unveiling that he couldn’t do it a few minutes later, and yet the fallen Anakin Skywalker still threw the dark side and murdered almost everyone he knew.
Darth Vader is stupid
If you don’t believe Darth Vader It’s stupid, you just have to visit the famous ones again Revenge of the Sith Scene in which Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu confront Palpatine against Sith Lord. To influence Anakin against his Jedi colleague, Palpatine tells the young man: “I have the power to save them that they love” and that he has to “choose”. Anakin corresponds and cuts Windus hand, but after Palpatine killed the Jedi master, he admits that he is unable to save pads.
In particular, the future emperor screeches on her earlier discussion about Darth Plagueis, the mysterious Sith, who learned the secrets of immortality. “Death is a power that only one has reached,” said Palpatine, “but when we work together, I know that we can discover the secret.” Simply expressed that the future Darth Vader is completely stupid if he continues to go hand in hand with palpatine’s plans after the older man reveals that he cannot save pads what that is Whole reason Anakin was ready to become a mass murderer primarily.
Now there are some Darth Vader defenders who say that he is not really stupid in this film. Instead, he becomes the victim of the manipulation techniques of the old school. And it is true that real cult leaders and other similar characters often hold their supporters to get the desired things. The problem with this logic, however, is that it threatens to undermine the dramatic tension that the prequels are worth seeing at all.
Regardless of whether you love or hate them, the prequels play an important role in the Star Wars mythology because they explain how Anakin Skywalker was seduced by the dark side in the galactic history. We should see how the profound Jedis deep bond with padme is ultimately enough to get it to reveal everything and everyone he knows. In short, the temptation must be The Emotionally powerful to lure it away, and we can experience the tragedy of this talented Jedi hero, to become a villain.
If you accept that Anakin could be convinced of a cult leadership technique, even a storm troops could look through, you have to accept that this future Darth Vader stupid like a box with rocks -he, kyber -crystals, and all tensions from the prequels . Like the emperor, an offer makes that his dark protégé cannot refuse, and after the archeplass is unveiled, he cannot make up for this offer five minutes later, Anakin Despite it Throws in with him. This would be the real equivalent to become Ted Bundys buddy to get a check that you now get every day.
Newsflash: You will never get this check and anakin was it never I will get what Palpatine has promised. Everything from his amazing talents in force to his basic intelligence should have told him, but he is still becoming space that is based on the most obvious lie in the galaxy. Sure, Darth Vader may be the creepiest guy in Star Wars, but don’t make a mistake: he is also stupid enough to make Jar-Jar-Binks look like a rocket scientist.
