When I look at Anakin in the prequels I really don't see much that's good
in him. He only ever seems to be out for himself, everything's about him.
Even the cause of his downfall, his wanting to save Padme, is all about
him. "I can't live without her" he says. He should have been willing to
lay down his own life to save her but instead he gives up the lives of all
the Jedi so that he can gain the power to save her, for himself. What do
you think? Was there really anything in Anakin that was worthy of
redemption or was Luke misguided by the love for a father he never knew?

I think to quote George Lucas 'Anakins big problem is that he can't let go
of things'. I think he has good intentions - but he eventually takes more
and more extreme methods to achieve them.
