I think Anakin could have been taught, but not by the Jedi Order as it was at that time. An earlier Jedi order, sure. But he had to be taught how to deal with attachments and how to love without giving in to the dark side when he lost someone. The Jedi Order of the prequel era simply didn't know how to do that, they'd completely given up attachments and didn't understand at all how to live with them.

[(Anonymous)]

The only person who could teach him was who did teach him, specifically Palpatine. Anakin was just Born Bad.

[philstar22]

I don't believe that. And considering he turned back to the light in the end, that certainly isn't canon.

But did he? His big turn was getting all possessive about his son, and deciding that Palpatine didn't get to kill what was his. Even that turn was tainted by Anakin's inner darkness and jealousy.

[philstar22]

I think your interpretation of that scene is really wrong. I think Anakin saw his son standing up to Palpatine, but also understanding that Palpatine would never be defeated through violence and so throwing down his weapon and standing in the light. And refusing to kill him when Luke had every reason to want to do so. It reminded him of the others who had believed in him. It allowed him to find his own inner strength to save his son.

If he was doing it for selfish reasons, then he wouldn't have been willing to die to save his son.

That's one way of looking at it, I guess.

I always wondered if Anakin might have been better off with one of the corps. Allowed to pilot and tinker with mechanics of the explorer sect to his hearts content.

[philstar22]

Hmmm. But he was always going to be strong in the Force. Without learning to control his abilities he could have gone dark on his own.

Honestly, I think the Jedi Order the way it was by the prequel era was just destined to fall. It was too cracked on the inside. Anakin was the one who did it in the end, but it would have been someone else if not him.

Probably Mace Windu, since he was just a little too eager to do a coup and some extrajudicial killing. The only reason Mace wouldn't have become Palpy's next apprentice was that Mace's arrogance level was through the roof and he wouldn't have been content to be a Sith apprentice.

[philstar22]

I could totally see this. Mace was a good example of all that was wrong with the Jedi in that era. And honestly, he's really popular, but I'm not a huge fan.

This.
