I believe that Anakin will strike down Dooku and take Dooku's side as 'Darth' Anakin (prior to his little accident). Then Obi-wan saves the day and dumps Darth Anakin in a pit of lava or something. So it would be a full circle.
Addition: Just figured it out:
Episode 1: Finds a Force strong boy on Tantoine, his 'master' fights Darth Maul and loses. He destroys a big ship.
Episode 2: Boy now a fully grown teenager fights a better trained Sith and gets his left elbow cut off.
Episode 3: Boy cuts down the better trained Sith with pure rage. Tempted by the Dark Side he joins.
Episode 4: Finds a Force strong boy on Tantoine, his 'master' fights Darth Vader and loses. He destroys a big station.
Episode 5: The Boy now fights a better trained Sith and gets his left hand cut off.
Episode 6: Boy cuts down the better trained Sith with pure rage. Tempted by the Dark Side he refuses. He and his father destroys the Dark side.

I find no other explanation for an obviously stronger Force user to be defeated and seriously injured by a weaker Force user.

Matrix, I did see your point in your generalization of the overall plots in the Star Wars movies. But. Kenobi wasn't Luke's master, just a helpful guide/protector (Yoda was more of a master to Luke), and Kenobi sacrificed himself as a tactical move to surrender himself to The Force, whereas Qui-Gon Jinn had better things to do than getting impaled. Qui-Gon really wanted to train Anakin, and IMO he probably would've done a better job than Obi-Wan at that.
No, my point was that you can't destroy the dark side anymore than you can destroy cursing and foul language. Where the Dark Side is just The Force interpreted by someone who is angry and hateful, cursing is just someone using The Language (*gasp*!) who is upset and angry, usually.
Luke used the force to choke with in ROTJ, mind you.

Luke didn't destroy Vader with Rage - he nearly succombed - but I think after his little outburst he controlled himself. Then he realised how to beat the darkside and he turned off his light sabre.
