Nah, he was like that when he was corrupted.

Sebastian Shaw ghost appeared as he did because he was redeemed.

sebastian shaw obviously. it makes way more sense for anakin to appear as he was when he died just like ben. its better for continuity purposes. and, who the fuck actually wants to be reminded about the prequels? keep hayden christensen out of as many scenes as possible

Every Star Wars fan that was introduce to the series for the past 16 years or so.

not i, said the bear

Hayden ghost never made sense to me.

Why isn't everyone else young?

Anakin looked like that for a good year before Revenge of the Sith.

And during that time he exhibited behavior foreshadowing his eventual fall to the Dark Side. Shaw makes more sense.

I like the Hayden version more.

In the context that George was using, I don't see how a slightly angry Anakin is worse than an Anakin that killed hundreds of Jedi and innocents, laid waste to multiple planets, and was consumed by the darkside, but okay. Just because he killed the Emperor didn't make him good. I bet you if he survived, he would still have the tendency to choke a bitch for getting in his way. You don't just rid yourself of the darkside like that.

Outside of that context though, yeah I guess, but now we can have Anakin in more movies.

But he was redeemed at the end of ROTJ, hence why he's even there.
Throughout the later seasons of TCW he chokes people, exhibits intense jealousy, etc.

The problem with Hayden is this.

Why the fuck is he so special?

Why doesn't Yoda or Obi-Wan get to return to their younger selves? I mean think about it. Anakin is all young again but gets to hang around all day with his master, and yoda, who both stay ancient.

That's the definition of awkward even more beyond "Oh hey master, sorry for killing you."

The Lord Ruler · April 11, 2015, 11:05:34 PM

what if the ghosts choose what they want to look like

Then Anakin is still being a prick by being the odd one out.

It is supposed to show Anakin before he turned to the dark side. The problem with this is that he was redeemed and was no longer a Sith when he saved Luke and killed Palpatine.

In which case my point still stands.

If their ghosts are appearing at their age of death, and Anakin was considered to be on the light side at the time of his death, then he should likewise appear as his current age.

In this sense he's just being a douchebag to Obi and Yoda by appearing as his younger self which caused all that damn misery and brought the Jedi down.

Meh. He's less shitty as Anakin than he was as Vader. He was still shitty. My question is, why is Anakin even there?
Did he learn it somehow, because it's a taught skill as we learned in The Clone Wars. Or does he just get a free pass because he's The Chosen One? He's heading to Obi-wan's shack on Tatooine in the next issue of Darth Vader, so maybe we find out there.

It's issue #7 that he travels to Tatooine.

maverick · April 11, 2015, 11:55:05 PM

Stupid. He should just have left the trilogy the way it was.

Only '90s George Lucas would look at the most beloved movies of all time and think they need to be fixed.

Why are you guys discussing these comics? Hayden in ROTJ is not canon, and neither is anything coming out after Disney's purchase of the franchise.

Well the switch was made prior to Disney's purchase.
But you know that already.
