Sidenote: It's easier to see what's quoted if you use formatting to indicate quotes.

Wow. *writes self a note* Even if I'm right, I can still be wanky.

The OP waaay overreacted to the other posters being infuriating.

I can see his point: A squeaking Anikin would kinda take away from the whole "decent into dark and madness" thing. He should not be singing "When it's Time to Change" from the Brady Bunch Puberty Special when going to the dark side.

However, I don't care.

	Sidenote: Merci, noted. :D Yeah, he's right about that, but I think Hayden's normal speaking voice and intonation will be more than adequate for Ep III. Anyway, it's wanky and I had to share. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I feel for you Midget. Too many people here post their 'oh-so accurate' opinions on these boards before actually reading the original post involved. Too amny fanboys have become sooo arrogant that they read a topic title and automatically have an answer.

Disregarding WTF amny means, yes. You are absolutely right. We should not assume the topic title has ANYTHING to do with the thread itself.

I bow to your superior intellect.

Please die now.

	I've heard rumors that he actually can act. It's hard to tell when he's working with the director who managed to wrest wooden performances out of Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor, and Samuel L. Jackson. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	valarltd 2004-04-16 08:40 am UTC (link)
	The rumors are greatly exaggerated. He has exactly 3 expressions: pissed off, crying and evil. Oh, and "Startled" if we count In the Mouth of Madness. I'm sorry. The makeup was the most interesting thing about him in Life as a House except maybe his willingness to be prostituted. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If that was his "evil" look he was working in AotC, he needs to work on it some more. It looks a lot less like evil than like snotty-teen. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	cpip 2004-04-16 08:45 pm UTC (link)
	I'll give you -- Lucas would make a GREAT setting designer and SFX guy. He's just a crappy writer and a lousy director, able to somehow create wooden performances from otherwise great actors. And he HASN'T gotten better with age. And, thanks! :) It's a li'l penguin that sits on my girlfriend's desk. She snapped a photo of him and told me to use it as a pic. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	winterfox 2004-04-17 08:51 am UTC (link)
	Word. I've never understood what other people see in Darth Maul. The double-bladed lightsaber is just bloody impractical; all things considered, I'd think one would be more likely to slice off own legs than hit any opponent. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Re: croik 2004-04-16 02:26 pm UTC (link)

	I would LOVE it if that happened. Story-wise it'd be a bit wick, of course (c'mon JKR, that was done in 1983!), but it'd be worth it just to see the Potter fandom implode. :-D (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	pictures the spooge implosion I must be jaded, but I think I'd have to pop some popcorn and watch those fireworks. I wrote the teensiest bit of Potter and left due to teenies and spooginess. I watch Potterdom now because the fandom is almost as amusing as the books are! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Oh, how I love it when they start whining that it's "their" thread and people should stop posting in it.

	I'm all up on the "Hayden Christenson is a shitty actor" bandwagon (when you get out-acted by CGI puppets with no dialogue, there might possibly be a problem), but... How the hell can anyone have a badass enough voice to portray Darth Vader as he was in the original trilogy? I don't think anyone could match James Earl Jones' voice in terms of deepness.
