he's ok
but what u meant was that Lucas didn't write the lines for hayden, he wrote them for anakin skywalker and Hayden isn't Anakin Material.
it'll sound cocky coming from me but i've been told by others that i would be a good anakin, i'm built but not that much and i'm extremely agile and i'm already a sword masterer so thats simple but unfortunately i was a bit to young looking for EPS:II AotC so i wouldn't of cut it then, but now i could of really made a difference (my opinion). but hayden pulled it off better than some others couldn't he was just not that believable when he was angry or menacing at some points that worked because he was meant to seem whimpy or pussy whipped but like on mustafar where he says
"You underestimate my power..." he's meant to sound desperate and bent on proving his worth but hayden nearly makes it then basically in the end sounds like a little grade school boy yelling to his teacher and it loses its momentum of seriousness luckily ewan's bring its intensity back with his next line to lead up to the leg chopin part
Tom Cruise as Anakin... hmm....
Obi-Wan slices off Anakin's limbs on Mustafar:
Anakin: "The Hell man? Why did you do that?"
Obi-Wan: "You were the Chosen One, it was said you would destroy the Sith, not join them."
Anakin: "Why did you have slice me up like that? You knew I would fall and roll down the hill, what did you expect to happen?"
Obi-Wan: "Bring balance to the Force! Not leave it in darkness."
Anakin: "Don't blame me for that. Here I was giving you a duel, and you turn around and dismember me. You're a jerk."
Obi-Wan: *sighs* "You were my brother Anakin. I loved you." *turns and leaves*
Anakin: "Hey, wait a minute, don't walk out on me, I'm talking to you!"
