"You know... they used to call me a Jedi.
"I was one of their best, one of their warriors, one of their chosen, one of their peace keepers.
"They said I was meant to bring balance, bring peace.
"My old master said I was supposed to destroy the Sith, not join them.
"But he, like the others, never understood.
"I was doing as I was supposed to do.
"There was a need for a period of darkness so that the light afterwards could flourish.
"I am the Chosen One.
"I am Anakin Skywalker, Darth Vader, Lord of the Sith, Apprentice of Obi-Wan Kenobi, and, most important of all,
"I am Balance."
The holocron buzzed softly, turning off in Luke Skywalker's left hand. The blond haired Jedi just stared at the blue crystalline holocron in his hand, his militaristic black uniform seeming to glow eerily from the reflected light of the holocron and his lightsaber, which was held in his right hand. The castle which Luke was in had been owned by his father, Anakin Skywalker. The dark halls were filed with a creepy, evil presence that always had him on edge, but knowing that this had been his father's home made it that much easier to traverse their halls. The holocron had been found in a chest with a few other items of interest: a few lightsabers, some blasters, some maps of distant places.
"Father..." He whispered, finally smiling softly, "You constantly amaze me..."
As you can see, I have found a new appreciation for the Prequels. And for Anakin's arc, though it was poorly executed.
They could've been fantastic movies if some scenes were revised, the dialogue was edited a bunch (specially in RotS where it needed to be spectacular), if George wasn't directing all three. He should've only directed Phantom and then let others direct the other two. Like, say, David Filoni directing RotS or AotC.
So, I still like those movies, I just wish they could've been done better.
