Casting Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker was a big mistake. Before the movies were released, I was looking forward to, you know, following Anakin's story of corruption over the course of the coming prequels. This deeply personal story about Anakin's transformation to Darth Vader should be emotionally engaging to the viewer, but then they get a schmuck like Hayden to play the part and he just irritated me in every scene he was in. Disappointing!
