Darth Vader 

He fell to the Dark Side trying to save a loved one, and he came back to the Light for exact same reason.

Why do I always watch revenge of the Sith hoping Anakin doesn’t turn to the dark side, it’s depressing

"He was the greatest pilot in the galaxy." "A cunning warrior." "And a good friend...."

"I am a Jedi, like my father before me." - Luke Skywalker. He was so proud to be a Jedi like his father.

I am truly the most popular star wars character

The sad ironic truth is that if he didn't try to save Padme she would've lived.

The cut you did of Luke & Anakin both using the force to pull their sabers to them, igniting them, and holding them the same way gave me chills. This was awesome I loved it

He is in my opinion the most well written villain in cinema history, the 2 actors that worked together to create a terrifying and intimidating man who fears nothing, but also shows a father, a broken man who wants to save his son from destruction, the deep voice of James demands fear while in very crucial moments being sympathetic, and the tall and strong figure of David gave the same performance and when you put those two things together it's an amazing combination. "It is too late for me son" is one of my favorite quotes from him

*He fulfilled his destiny. He destroyed the remaining Sith, including himself, and brought balance to the force.*

The real "Rise Of Skywalker"

Anakin is the most beautifully, deep and complex character in all of star wars. Born without a father, poor, a slave with no hope for the future, taken from his mother, his mother taken from him, fell into forbidden love, feared loss again, fell to darkness, lost his title and gained a new one, destroyed the order he fought for his whole life, lost his wife, lost his friends, lost his children, lost his body and became trapped in a suit which made him suffer constantly and was the fuel for his hatred, comitted terrible acts, met his son and daughter years later and his heart was again moved and awoken, defeated his wicked master who fooled him and saved his son and was redeemed. Beautiful. No one can tell me there is a better star wars character. Anakin's story is fundamentally about what it means to be human. Anakin's redemption story resonates because it tells us all something we desperately want to believe - that no matter what we've done, it's never too late to turn back. It's never too late to learn from your mistakes. It's never too late to stand up, dust yourself off, and turn around. You are never too far gone to change. Vader tells Luke earlier, "It's too late for me, son", yet his last words were "You were right about me. Tell your sister, you were right..." It's only too late to change if you have convinced yourself of that very fact. Personally, as a Christian, I relate Anakin's redemption to the idea that none of us are too far gone to be beyond God's forgiveness. We're all flawed, but we aren't lost if we turn and accept God's pardon through Jesus.

When he asks "is Padme alright, where is she?" I'm definitely not crying

The prequels made the original trilogy better.

And still to this day anakin/Vader is the character everyone is interested in.

"You were my brother Anakin" "I loved you" still break me

The first 6 episodes are a masterpiece, I don't care what anyone says. The Story of Star Wars is very well written. A story that is able to make you feel something has done its job perfectly and this has done exactly that.

A scared son An Angry aprentice A hatefull jedi knight A sad sith lord A loving father The tragic story of Anakin Skywalker

When luke said “let me save you” and Vader answered “you already have” made me emotional ngl

When I watch this, I remember how good Star Wars used to be. While I think the execution of the prequels was not the best, I love the story and the characters. There is so much emotion in this video, I get chills thr entire time when I watch it. Truly, Anakin Skywalker is an amazing character. It's a true shame what disney has done.

"Have you ever heard the tragedy of Anakin Skywalker, The Chosen One?"

What kills me the most about his tragic story, is how he never did anything for himself. He was motivated by the love for his family. It’s excruciating knowing his demise.

When Luke saying “im not afraid” but yoda goes “you will be” gave me the chills!

In the very end, he fulfilled the prophecy. He brought balance to The Force and redeemed himself. Truly an epic character

Yoda saying “you will be” as luke says he is not afraid, with the silence around and vader’s rebreather after yoda’s words is too chilling for me to bare.

Child: Fear Padawan: Anger Jedi Knight: Hatred Sith Lord: Suffering

“I have failed you, Anakin, I have failed you” That one always cuts deep

The most romantic, sad and depressing story behind any villain, and Vader is by far the best villain of all time

I love the part near the end with Shmi, Obi-Wan and Padme all saying his name, like they're calling him back to the light. It's like he's already on the edge of turning good again, and seeing his son dying and in so much pain is the final straw.

I just realised the whole "I had a dream I was a Jedi" was a force premonition, mind blown

i love how fans on the internet can make better edits than an over-paid director can make sequals

What hurts me most with Obi Wan is the last time he saw Anakin as Anakin was when he was telling him how proud he was of him. The next time he sees him, all he can see is pure hatred and evil within his soul. Must have been heartbreaking.

Love this! Brought tears to my eyes. The story of Anakin Skywalker is such a tragedy. One of the few villains that I truly feel sorry for.

Dam Yoda has Those flashbacks like he served in the vietnam war

I truly think Hayden Christensen did an amazing job in ROTS as Anakin. He was the perfect chosen one. So many likes in just one week........ Its so good to know that more people like Hayden. Thanks guys.

Vader is probably the biggest villain ever in movie history, in only 6 movies, he is defined as THE perfect villain.

"Is he not the destroyer of the sith?" He destroyed the Sith, just not the way the Jedi's thought.

One of my favorite lines from Vader: “Don’t be too proud of this technological terror you’ve constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the force.” Just the way he says it is badass

Padmé's last words: *"There's still good in him."* Anakin's last words: *"You were right."* It's like poetry. It rhymes.

I’ve always interpreted Anakins chosen one prophecy as EXACTLY what happened He did bring balance to the force, the sith were all but gone And the jedi ruled politics and battlefields alike He fulfilled his destiny, and then made choices for himself, and saved his son

Anakin Skywalker just wanted family and friends by his side.

"I've seen what such feelings can do to a fully trained Jedi Knight. To the best of us...." - Ahsoka Tano

The greatest character in movie history, period.

The most brilliant montage I have ever witnessed.

In the end he finally saved someone he truly loved

That was a roller coaster of emotion. Anakin Skywalker is one of the most tragic characters ever written. A young slave boy, a Jedi Knight, Darth Vader, his descent only keeping him enslaved to a master, until Luke finally sets him free.

That line “Where is Padme.... Is she safe... Is she alright?” Gets me everytime

You can see his tragedy span out over the movies, he went from loving and caring kid to heartless and ruthless leader that shows no mercy, glad to see he had some good left in him before he died.

“So love has blinded you” It’s so crazy to think how that line from padme sounded so innocent and just a little joke at first but then you realize how love really blinded anaking lol. Star Wars really is a masterpiece when it comes to the story telling bro💯.

“The devil was once an angel” George Lucas is a genius Edit: thanks for all the likes and comments Damn

That line, "I'll not leave you here I've got to save you!" "You already have, Luke" Makes me tear up everytime.

"I have failed you Anakin, I have failed you.." This is the line where you know you are about to watch the most peak fighting scene in all of fiction, and will go through a rollercoaster of emotions, and mainly start tearing up.

I love when villains aren’t justified for their actions but are still relatable and right in a sense but their view is still clouded cause of their actions. But even they’re not excused, they show clues that the most vile and arrogant and despicable people can change, that they can chamfe

I like how you included the non-canon duel remake of the original Star wars movie between Obi-Wan and Vader.

"Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destory a planet is insignificant next to the power of the force." Darth Vader will never fail to give me goosebumps.

The fact that darth Vader never shows any rage or hatred in his voice makes it even better when he lets it out, you know he’s angry and rage full, you know that calm robotic voice is a thinly veil over his well of rage and hate, darth Vader is that little voice in the back of your head that keeps you in check, makes you fearful of the fact that the strongest man in the galaxy is fueled on rage, and he isn’t on your side.

That gave me goosebumps. I appreciated the clean transitions, and how when using quotes, you didn't show the scenes they were in. That way you could tell exactly what the characters were thinking. This was awesome.

Darth Vader is one of the greatest villains in cinematic history.

FBI AGENT: I see you crying through your camera. It's OK, I'm crying too.

23 years in light side and 23 years as an asshole in the darkside … he def brought balance to the Force

The chosen one to bring order to the force. Long live Darth Vader

“I am a Jedi... like my father before me...”

The story arc of Anakin Skywalker always makes me tear up. He only wanted to save the love of his life and fell victim to the dark side.

No greater story for any one character in the history of cinema

When movies were NOT WOKE, epic stories were told...

Video: "You were the chosen on!" Ad: *Want to play raid shadow legends?*

“I just don’t want to become a problem” -Anakin

The greatest character in cinema history. He is the greatest hero/villain/hero ever.

"fear of loss is a path to the dark side" I felt that

"Just for once...let me...look on you with my own eyes..." I'm not crying...YOU'RE crying!

Wow... I'm lost for words. This was beyond incredible! One of the best Anakin/Vader tributes I've seen!!!

6:41 something crazy and deep always happens with this exact view from a Star Destroyer. Even Ahsoka feeling Anakin's fall to the dark side from this very view. Admiral Versio realising his loss - in battle and in family, etc.

So many can relate to Darth Vader that's why Darth vader and Anakin Skywalker will always be remembered in the Star wars community

When you realize that the prequel trilogy were infinitely better than Disney's f**k ups.

Video: "like my fath-" Ad: want a burrito? Me: God damnit no I don't.

“Where is padme?” “Is she safe?” “Is she alright ?” Never cried harder in my whole entire fucking life

He became Darth Vader because he trusted the wrong person to save the person he loved and he became Anakin again by trusting himself to save the only person in the entire galaxy who loves him.

"I am a jedi" "The force will be with you" "Like my father before me" "Always" 🖤

The first 3 minutes of this should of been the trailer for revenge of the sith

The man wasn’t evil, but he truly lost everything. His mother, Padme, the order, his limbs and potential, he was simply broken.

"And then you are lost!" That line hits me...

this is a true masterpiece.

The Skywalker Tragedy is by far one of the greatest story's to ever be written. Some try to overcome it but fall short. For it has made its own niche in the world of fiction and simply can't be overcome.

This is the best Darth Vader edit I've seen . Thank you for portraying him in the best possible way .

''Soon will I rest, yes, forever sleep. Earned it I have...''

Oh my god when Anakin said "It's all Obi-Wan's fault" and it showed Palpatine smiling that shit gave me instant chills. The satisfaction of his plan all working all played out in that one smile

Such a great edit. For years, Lucas stated that Episodes 1-6 were the entire saga, that 'it begins and ends with Anakin'. But nobody would accept this. It turns out Lucas was 100% right. He must feel as redeemed as Anakin (and regretful that he sold the property).

Personally I feel like the only reason Vader "lost" to Luke was because he was weakened by his own emotions, as I feel he did not want to kill Luke at all, and was fighting himself all the while fighting Luke at the same time. I mean look at the Vader from Rogue One... Dude went ham. Vader is definitely complicated in a lot of ways. Love the video

The Part That Hits Me Hardest Is When Vader Ask Luke To look Upon Him With His Eyes Underscoring The Agony And The Distortion Of Reality The Suit That Kept Him Alive Caused

This is a masterpiece! One of the best Darth Vader tribute! The transitions and the parallels are insane! Not to mention the incredible rhythm of this video! The last part was so emotive! You become one of the best editor out there!:)

I always cry tears when you see Anakin Skywalker as a Force Ghost at the end of Episode 6. Star Wars is not an action movie, its a tragedy.

Anakin's Story is by far the best written story of all time for ME.

This is probably the one of the 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 Star Wars edits I’ve seen.

The Skywalker saga is truly a masterpiece

"So love has blinded you?" Even though its a meme at this point it still hits hard knowing how true this statement is

What a masterpiece! Formidable collection of scenes. And the soundtrack is just perfect... Thank you!

This just makes me so sad for Anakin. So much wasnt his fault😢

“Impressive most impressive” - Darth Vader

“you were the chosen one” me: 😢 - AD INTERRUPTS ME: for f*** sake im having a moment here.

Anakin/darth Vader is the greatest character of all time. Greater than Jesus.

Darth Vader is often an underestimated villain due to all the memes, the bad redoing of who he is, meaning he was basically butchered after his death. We need to remember how much ass he kicks.
