Lucas literally made a Nazi SS officer space Jesus. LMFAO
Why was Darth Vader space Jesus? Because Darth Vader was popular. That’s it, that’s the only reason. There was absolutely nothing about the actual in-series story of the OG trilogy that justified the idea of a Fascist Enforcer who found his humanity during the last 5 minutes of his life was some messianic figure of prophecy.
It’s almost baffling how Lucas looked at the OG trilogy and came to this conclusion. It’s like Plinkett said “it’s almost baffling how complex the awfulness is.” Anyone who hasn’t seen Mr. Plinkett’s review of the OG trilogy, go watch them as they are a good start in understanding how irredeemable these films are.
God don’t even get me started ranting about how the Star Wars prequels are garbage. I will literally resurrect Lee of the 2 thousand word essays.

Disney power scaling goes against movies. In movies anakin dominated vader. In obi wan show , obi wan dominates vader at the end with force which suggest anakin >> vader.
In movies old obi wan was meant to be weaker than his younger self. In disney canon old obi wan is stronger than his younger self.

And Anakin's spirit had been broken by the death of Padmé and being told he was the one who killed her. Vader could have become stronger than Anakin but he was too swallowed in grief, self-loathing and self-pity for him to ever truly recover his fighting spirit, which is why Darth Sidious was eager to replace him with Luke as his apprentice.
It's just about glazing him since he's the most iconic person in the franchise, and template for all sith I guess.
I don't really think it works because he's implied to have lost a lot of his potential after burning alive, and did kind of lose to the only Jedi he fought on screen that wasn't a youngling, lol. A ruthless enforcer sure, but I don't think he should really be Yoda/Palpatine level, and whatever sith/Jedi were on that level in the past
But idk, I don't really follow Star wars and it's ultimately arbitrary PL wise if you have so many people involved. There are people who made Star wars stories where the characters are planet level, which is just obviously not true in the movies
