[QUOTE="Iron_Chef, post: 1580887, member: 4530"] Ryan Phillipe is a good actor but not macho enough for Darth Vader; neither is Hayden. However, Hayden CAN act well if given good material --- see the excellent biopic "Shattered Glass" for proof. I thought Darth Vader should be a charismatic badass who lets his own ego seduce him into the Dark Side, not some whiny brat with a rat tail after his dad's car keys. TPM is the worst movie ever made. Hands down. The absolute worst. Anybody with that much money who blows it that badly, beats out anybody else who made crap with less. AOTC was a step back in the right direction, but again suffers from being needlessly "cutesy" in parts or downright boring (the love subplot). Killing Jango Fett off so early was the same stupid mistake Lucas made in ROTJ. Hmm... Let's give the audience a cool anti-hero who is not a central villain (he is apolitical but merely in it for the money) and then kill him off as quickly as possible? A waste, though at least Jango got a much better death than Boba did. Lucas has very little talent anymore and even less vision. He pissed it all away decades ago. Now, he's deluded himself into thinking he knows what he's doing, when it's clear to most everybody else (except little kids and die-hards) he doesn't. He can't write. He can't direct. All he can do is merchandize and fill the screen up with flashy nonsense that hurts my eyes. And now Greedo shoots first? That's the kind of lame-o mentality that often sets in when you have kids, like replacing M16s with walkie-talkies in E.T.! Lucas wants to make it impossible to ever see the original versions of his films again, when those versions are the best. Why can't he digitally replace the Ewoks with Wookies? Why can't he do something cool instead of messing everything up even more? He's old enough to know better, isn't he? :( [/QUOTE]
