Sorry, but the current Anakin makes me laugh at all the wrong places. So, is it possible for Lucas to replace him?

Why would you want to replace him now? He gets all cut up and mangled and stuff in the next movie.

No, but I think he's fine...what's wrong with him? He's not as bad as that little kid....

"Let's turn left, that's a good trick!"

LOL. That kid was pretty annoying.

Still, I'm sure he got some poontang after that role. ;)

Almost as bad as that kid in Terminator 2 but just not quite.

Lucas and Spielberg, among others, make me wonder just what they are thinking when they cast some roles.

Does Anakin grow older from II to III? If so hopefully they'll get a new actor, like from I to II.

No, he is going to be in III. Definitely. It's a done deal. :)

Is anyone lining up for Ep III yet?

Man I am really looking forward to Ep III... I wanted to see Anakin turn into Darth Vader for so long...

Well, it won't be "so long"...it will be like the last 5 minutes of the movie. :(

But he WILL be a dark jedi for a lot more of the movie, just not *CSSHHHH* *CSHHH* Vader.

There's been just too much crappy dialogue in Ep 1 & 2. I don't think any actor could do a whole lot with lines like "I don't like sand, it's rough and dry...blah blah blah."

The battle scene from 2 was jaw dropping though. It made up for the rest of the crappy movie.

I thought Hayden Chrisensen(sp?) did a great job in that role. He really did a good job of transforming from good to evil. If you watch the movie over again, you'll realize that the bad actor was really Natalie Portman.

Natalia Portman doesn't need to act.

Or bad direction

Yeah. Only the bad acting.

There was, like, no chemistry between Anikan and Amidala, and she's usually, uh, like, good! I can only blame whiny dark insolent little Jedi boy.

Oh well. I'll enjoy seeing him get hacked up. Mwaa ha ha ha ha ha!

I just dont feel Anakin's emotions when watching the movie... Like in parts of the movie I know he's mad/angry (or he's supposed to), but I just dont feel the rage... I was like: "yeah ok, you are angry now..."

But I agree, the dialogue played a part in that too... They were really, really lame...

BTW, does anyone know if Natalie Portman will be pregnant with Luke and Leia in Ep III?
