I liked the Palpatine change, but I hate the ROTJ Anakin ghost. It annoys me, Anakin should not look like that. Both Yoda and Obi look like they did (age wise) when they died, Anakin should look like an older man, not a 22 year old with long hair.
And on your Yoda note, I've heard that Lucas intendeds (Eventually) to release TPM as well as redo the OT with Digital Yoda. I hope he does, the CG Yoda is far better. At the very least he should make TPM Yoda CG so that the PT Yoda is all the same. But I still think he should do it with the ESB and ROTJ Yoda.
Out of respect for Frank Oz he won't make Yoda digital in the OT, but he will make him digital in the Phantom Menace thats for sure...(doll looked terrible anyway). There's no need to change him, cause there were no saberfights in the OT...I think why they especially want to make him digital in TPM is because he looks nothing like Yoda. He looks even older than Yoda. I didn't mind the emperor being ditched in ESB...afteral its strange that they are played by two different people (three actually) altho the woman and the guy who did the voice gave an excellent performance, it has my respect, but it still stays strange. Young Anakin in the OT...for some reason it makes sense...for some reason it doesn't. I have given the explenation a hundred times...I'm not gonna do it again, cause I bet it's not gonna change your opinion that it bugs you anyway.

Here he looks happy and grateful in this scene but the new Anakin looks just like Hayden Christensen who smiles due to his payment earned from a 3 minute long posing gig! Shame on thee Gorge Locust... (please log in to view the image)
I'm glad they replaced the old man with hayden, it mark's the death of anakin at his young age, darth vader is the one who lived the next 20 something odd years, until his death.
it would make sense that when you acheive the enlightment or whatever they call it when they become spirits, that anakin would be young, when he truly died.
I thought I'd put it in this forum 'cause it has to do with what Lucas did to Yoda in TPM...and if he'll do it again. There's still the 6 movie box set to come out...
(I hope it comes in the form of a big death star!)

The Anakin change was fine, better to have him "die" in ROTS than to replace him with a random old chubby man.
The Fett voice change didn't bother me either...i like Morrison's voice much better.
As far a changing OT yoda to digital? I doubt that. I think it would mess too much with scene to have a blatantly digital yoda in a real background. Puppet yoda fits fine in his swamp and CG yoda is great in teh Prequels...however! I bet that TPM yoda will be replaced with ROTS yoda. I hate that TPM puppet...It barely looks like yoda.
Oh please don't get them started. And I really wish people would learn to spell the word pedophile considering how much it gets tossed around on this forum.
i dont see the connection with hayden though. nothing about that scene said "i want to touch children". as for me, i got more of a stoned slacker vibe from hayden. notice he only really looks at luke for like 1 second and then he's just staring off into nothing. "wooooooow....far out man...do you think they can tell i'm stoned?"
