Wasn't this like the sort-of theme of the third trilogy? The Jedi tried to eschew attachments to prevent strong emotions like anger, jealousy, fear, and hatred. But Luke realizes that the Jedi were wrong. Being connected to other people is what the Force is all about.
At least, I think that's what they were going for when the franchise sat on its own collective balls.
To say that was the theme of the trilogy is a little generous. It was the theme of a single plotline of a movie that was also part terrible.
