You know, I could have forgiven the new trilogy somewhat if they had given us a badass Dark Jedi Anakin at the end. And no, whiny little angry teenager Anakin doesn't count. The whole reason anyone gives a fuck about Darth Vader is because he was a badass Dark Jedi who choked people the fuck out because that's just what badass Dark Jedis do. It's in the job description. Everything that added to his character with his relationship with Luke wouldn't have meant shit if he hadn't been a badass Dark Jedi. So, to me, any trilogy about Anakin Skywalker becoming Darth Vader should end with Anakin being a badass Dark Jedi. I shouldn't have to see Anakin become Vader and then have to turn on Episode IV just see him be a true badass. That's like jerking me off but not finishing me off.

You can't expect him to look like Sidius the first time they show him. He had obviously aged throughout the series and I feel like that's what they were trying to convey. In the original movies, Sidius doesn't do a lot of action, or fighting, etc. That showed his aging. However, in Revenge of the Sith, you get him fighting Windu, and Yoda.
I can agree to an extent about the Anakin thing, I personally didn't find him as dark as he should have been, but I still found his role enjoyable.
