I don't think that Darth Vader as portrayed in the first three released movies matches with the personality of Anakin Skywalker as portrayed in the prequels.

In the prequels, he was played as a "think inside the box" brooding ISTJ type ... very precocious when it came to mechanics and concrete processes, but not really using true N-style thinking in his decision-making.

It is hard to tell why this occurred -- purposefully, or simply how the actor portrayed him, or Lucas' own scripting/directing mistakes?

The Han Solo discussion is interesting. The conventional reading might be ESTP, but htb's support for ISTP makes sense. He's definitely very charming and sociable, but I understand why ISTP comes to mind.

I suppose the large question is function order:

ESTP = Se + Ti + Fe + Ni
ISTP = Ti + Se + Ni + Fe

Which pattern makes more sense?

[I agree with the Roosevelt/MacArthur comparison, although my knowledge of the latter is thin.]
