The new Star Wars films are pretty good. Well, Episode 2 is pretty good. Episode I is a very terrible piece of crap - Star Wars or otherwise. Completely overrated.

The scenes with Obi Wan in Episode 2 were pretty good, as well as the final light sabre battle. The scenes with Anakin and Padme were so bad I wanted to shoot myself.

The only thing I've liked about the new Star Wars movies was Yoda finally getting off his muppet butt and whooping somebody. Everything else seems like an excuse to cash in on the name value.

The actors so far who have played Anakin Skywalker have been so ridiculously bad that I refuse to call the new movies Star Wars.

I don't care much for Hayden Christiansen's consant angst and whineyness, but I suppose that very well could just be what they were going for. If that's the case, it's Lucas' fault he pisses me off so much.

What gets me though is that the Anakin in the new trilogy is so different from Vader. If the Vader had the same characteristics in the old episodes as Anakin does now, Vader would have been a joke.

Piet-"My Lord, I trust your meeting with the Emporer went well. Lord Vader..are...are you crying?"

Vader-"It's not fair Piet!! Alls I want is to be the Emporer and the Emporer is holding me back!! It's all his fault!! I'm going to my room! I hate you all forever!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!"


and why it would be hysterical to see a spin off of that, Star Wars would have sucked! Why couldn't they have just made Anakin a badass, like Vader, instead of that light saber toting turd?

He's going to get that way eventually you know. I think it would be tacky if they just made him go straight from a troubled child right into a homicidal dictator, with nothing in between. Granted, some points of the film are corny, but I think it's necessary for character development, just so it doesn't look like too much of a suddent jump. But yeah, I'm waiting for the real Vader to arise as well.
