Anakin Skywalker had mental problems.

In other news, water is wet. :bangwall:

It's an interesting article... but nothing that hasn't been said about a billion times before by others. Anakin was messed up, got no help and was almost actively helped along the path.

Actually, he was very messed up, so anything anyone could have done or said would have resulted in him becoming Vader...
He wasn't actively helped, he was just actively fucked up...

He wasn't actively helped, he was just actively f***ed up...
Are you... agreeing or disagreeing with me? :?

Agreeing up to a point.
I don't think he was "helped" along the way, as much as he wasn't helped with his mental issues...
Which may have ended "helping" him along the way...
So maybe I agree fully with you...
I'm no longer certain of anything... :confused:

Does this mean I'm going to turn to the Dark Side and face my Mentor on a planet full of lava atop a melting and falling structure while whining like a little bitch?

Of course - how do you get a driver's license where you're from?

The same way, except for the whining... :)

Always wondered if Qui-Gon as Anakin's teacher might've helped. Even a little bit.

Maybe, but there's an equal chance that Qui-Gon's hippie-dippie Gaia mentality would have screwed up Ani even more.
