Star Wars fans aren’t easy to please, and sometimes the weight of the fandom’s expectations can be suffocating for actors. Hayden Christensen suffered relentless criticism from fans and critics alike for his performance as Anakin Skywalker in Episode II: Attack of the Clones and Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. While the films were a box office success, the critique of Hayden’s performance as Anakin went on for years.
He never needed a redemption, it was the fans who were being shit bags this whole time. He did the best he could with a shit script, written by a shit writer but he was always good for the role. I thought he was a bit childish in episode 2 but looking back that fits, it was before the war. Episode 3 Anakin was fire
We dunking on Lucas now? Really?
Well we're not rewriting history. Those movies were not great, and are widely accepted as badly written, with awful dialogue.
The latest episode of Asoka is visually amazing.
So the maxim is do whatever it takes to pretend the prequels weren't terrible, eh?
