seriously guys, he wasn't that bad as anikan. the only bad scene where his acting was a little off was when he swore his allegiance to palpatine.(but that's it)


Long live hayden, fgts.

There was literally nothing wrong with that line, though.

He didn't even say that. He said, "I don't like sand. It's coarse, and rough, and irritating--not like you."

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT

SERIOUSLY

And yeah, blame that on the script if you didn't like it.

The way Hayden actually performed? It was good.

He used sand as a pickup line.
He. Used. Sand. As. A. Pickup. Line.
And yes I get that it's the scriptwriters but he does it in the most creepy way possible.

I wouldn't call it stellar or anything, but he's getting far more flack than he deserves.

Samuel L Jackson is generally regarded as a good actor, but his character wasn't that well crafted out either.

It would be hard for almost anyone to work with the writing, and probably directing, of the prequels.

(And yes, I know that you like them, and I'm not saying you shouldn't. Just sharing my point of view.)

Ewan Mcgregor probably is the actor that made the most of what he had to work with. I wouldn't mund seing him return as Obi-Wan in some way, like a standalone film.

No, he didn't use sand as a pickup line--he juxtaposed the unpleasant texture of sand to the pleasant texture of Padme's skin--or, as I prefer to interpret it, her personality and general demeanor. I thought it was a pretty good line.

Is it bad because it's unrealistic?... As in, no one would ever use that as a "pickup line"?

No, they probably wouldn't, but so what? It's a fucking movie.
When have romance scenes ever been realistic in any movie ever?

However, THIS exchange, from Revenge of the Sith:

Anakin: You are so... beautiful.
Padme: It's only because I'm so in love.
Anakin: No, it's because I'm so in love with you!
Padme: (genuinely concerned) So love has blinded you?
Anakin: (chuckles nervously) Well, that's not exactly what I meant.

...Yeah. It's hard to defend that bullshit.

Complain about shit like that--don't complain about the fucking sand line.

His acting in Episode II was... Not very good, if you ask me.

Episode III? Fine. Even with the shitty dialogue here and there. And he was especially fantastic at expressing emotions. I think his acting skills shine the most when he doesn't have to say anything.
