The best part of Hayden's performance was his eyes. They say eyes are the window to the soul and when Anakin looks up from Shmi's body, you know you're looking into the eyes of Darth Vader. And unlike in Revenge of the Sith, he didn't have yellow CGI to help him. It all rested on his acting abilities. Hayden Christiansen is a master of physical acting. He can convey everything you need to know with his expressions and body language and this makes up for his only acting weakness, which is the way he delivers his lines. However, the context of his monotone voice still fits Anakin's character because 1) Jedi are supposed to speak like emotionless warrior monks and 2) it mimicked James Earl Jones' speech patterns, with the only difference being that James has a very deep and booming voice.

Another great Hayden scene in terms of acting was when Anakin realised Padme was pregnant, or the the one where he tries to convince Padme to join him after he turned to the dark side.

@@tomnorton4277 im glad you picked up hayden had down vader's monotone voice and also hayden got down his stances, the arm crossing, arms on his hips, pointing with his right finger with a shuffle to it like vader, even doing puns in aotc ( "we used diplomatic negotions..well with a lightsaber" and "well if it works" to padme after she said it sounds like a dicatorship) and rots ("general grevious, youre shorter than i expected") , and hayden got down the speech patterns and how vader would always face away when he speaks to someone with his arms crossed on his back....things most wont pick up on at first

I agree. However People doesn’t like his acting mostly because of his line delivery and the writing. But compared to his emotions and expressions the lines don’t really matter because as a filmmaker you are supposed to “show not tell”. Star Wars is supposed to be viewed as visionary silent films.

As a the music in that scene.... holy shit

Thanks pal

@@anomalyinc3239 are you still making the ROTP videos, they are great well structured videos and I would love to see more of them.

@@KeyBladeWill I think it's funny that if you watch all the ROTP's you notice that Anomaly keeps on having to repeat himself in nearly every episode, just shows how dumb and repetative the prequel hate band wagon really is innit.

Let the hate flow through you

I watched them like 4 years ago, and yea their takes on stuff was complete shit.

They only put stuff on their list because of popularity. I bet a lot of the time, the host gives no shit about the topic they’re on. NuMbEr 1 - LoRd FaRqUaD (ShReK) They sound like they’re waiting for the check.

More like; Han: I love you because you’re beautiful and fiesty. Leia: I love you because you’re a bad boy with a heart underneath on the inside.

as anomaly said, ive been an awkward teen and the girls who had crushes on me did act like padme some were even colder and more distant to where i thought they had contempt, some sat by me and just stayed there stiff, as someone who doesnt just like someone sitting by it made me feel uncomfortable and if they would of just let it out they had a crush on me it would made me run these people being critical of them have a very warped romatic comedy view on dating...even adults act like them, two people who may be into each other will definately be hesistant to open up about that if say they have lives where that could make both their lives worse or their circles wont accept it... people who are into each other and fear giving into it just dont get together because of some rainy night and one is depressed, it actually happens alot more like anakin and padme's did where the circumstances got them together and then when they are finally alone in the room with the fireplace

@@thepubknight6144 i agree that the scenes are good but, a 19 year old wouldn't be acting awkward like this, unless they were under anakin's circumstances.

​@@neotoad456 I didn't see where Anakin was being all that awkward, I mean yeah he had awkward moments but those moments made sense and felt natural given what was going on. Plus he wasn't constantly like this in every scene so I don't see why PT haters complained soo much. There are plenty of romantic scenes in movies and shows where the characters were awkward around each other or said something awkward so how is that a bad thing. I wish us PT fans didn't have to justify this, there is nothing to justify. This isn't a problem nor a flaw. It's almost as if PT haters expected Anakin to be something else and when it wasn't, they couldn't make sense of it🤷.

I agree, when I told my younger sister that Hayden as Anakin was hated by many ppl, she was like: why?? He's great!

@@VibingMeike It's the same reason people hated Shelley Duvall's Wendy in The Shining when it was first released. They hated the character so they assumed that it meant the actor was doing a bad job.

@@tomnorton4277 I haven't seen The Shining (yet...) but that sounds very similar to what happened with Hayden. The character was 'whining all the time' (yeah I get to hear that a lot... Did they even watch the movies?) so the actor must be bad. It's so stupid honestly. I still find people who think that Hayden was an objectively terrible choice for Anakin ;-; And I have no problem with people who say that they didn't subjectively like his performance, that's of course fine. But some people just say that Hayden was objectively a bad choice for Anakin. They didn't even try to find out WHY George chose Hayden or WHAT he had in mind for how Hayden should act.

@@VibingMeike Here's the thing. They don't like the CHARACTER, so they assume that means the actor sucks even though he played the character exactly how he was meant to be played. Many people can't separate their subjective biases from objective quality. Is Hayden Christiansen the greatest actor who ever lived? No. Not even close. His monotone voice was intentional but there were still some moments, such as the "This is outrageous" scene, where speaking in a monotone just doesn't work for somebody who's suppressing years of pent up resentment. However, Hayden's a master of using his expressions and body language, so you don't even need to listen to his dialogue to understand what Anakin's thinking and/or feeling. Speaking from personal experience, I initially didn't like Peter Capaldi as the Doctor. It took me 2 seasons to warm up to him and even when I grudgingly admitted to myself that I didn't dislike him anymore, I didn't care about his character enough to keep watching after Clara Oswald left and the storyline with River Song was wrapped up. If I wasn't so invested in Clara, I would have given up on Doctor Who much sooner because I subjectively didn't like Capaldi's Doctor until near the end of Season 9. However, I'm self aware enough to know that my dislike of Capaldi's Doctor was SUBJECTIVE. Steven Moffat INTENTIONALLY wrote him as an asshole because "It's time for the old beast to snarl at you for a bit". I knew the context so I never denied that Capaldi's a great actor. I just didn't like his Doctor until he grew out of his snarling beast phase, which was an intentional character arc.

Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson inThe Lighthouse is haunting and beautifully acted. Martin Sheen in apocalypse now is haunting and beautifully acted. Hayden’s performance was objectively shit. I think the only reason people give Hayden a pass is because the awesome lore the prequels established, but other than that he was an emotionless whiny weirdo who’s descent into the dark side was poorly established, and you can tell Hayden and Natalie’s chemistry was almost non-existent. If you like his performance and the prequels that is perfectly fine, we like what we like, but i don’t understand people who speak as if they are objectively good films lmao

Yep. I’d bet money that most of the prequel haters are sheep who think they’re shepherds. After all these years I got tired of being told the Prequels were bad without any genuine criticism yet when I prove the quality it’s brushed off or ignored…they’ll still claim it’s bad when it’s everything but…

@@Tareltonlives I know

Another story: the same person said "Star Wars is for kids", to which I reply, "No, Star Wars, ever since ANH, was always made to have a little something for everyone. (Insert a ton of dark Star Wars scenes here) Hell, the prequels started because of a blockade made by the Galactic Trade Federation and Intergalactic Banking Clan, which both, by name alone, implied massive power over the economic value of the Republic Credit, which is why nobody on Tattooine would accept credits to fix Qui-Gon's ship, leading to the pod race scene and discovery of Anakin" Prior to that, I kinda looked up the "Republic Credit Standard" on wookiepedia and got greeted with six words: "Backed by the Intergalactic Banking Clan" These six words, combined with [Meti: Not the Bad Guy]'s analysis on currency in the Fallout series, already gave me a massive explanation as to how dangerous the blockade was to the republic economy But first, what do these six words mean? See, in Meti's video, he explains that a currency is backed by something when at least one organization accepts this currency in exchange for a good at any time. American dollars started with the Gold Standard where, at any time, anyone could just walk into the backer's place and exchange dollars for gold, but this standard was abolished. This carried on to the Fallout series where bottle caps could be exchanged for water bottles. If the IBC was the only organization backing credits, then at any time, if they just so much as *refuse*, then republic credits would be worthless and planets would be forced to mint their own currency - this is where the pod races come in: Tattooine already minted its own currency and so Qui-Gon needed to make a quick buck Small side note, the IBC backed credits with Muunilist resources: apparently their home planet, Muunilist (the one with the squidward-headed people that Obi assaults in the Gendy Tartakovsky cartoons) has a ton of volcanoes that spew out valuable minerals, so at any point, anyone could just walk in there, hand some credits, and they'd get some sweet valuable minerals in return. If the IBC said "no, we won't give minerals anymore", the republic credit would be worthless. Other small side note: the IBC backed republic credit standards for both the republic and separatist sides of the Clone Wars, which is why Serenno got away with ordering a massive ton of droids

@@Necroxion also because at this point in time, tatooine was part of Hutt Space at this point, not the Republic

Glad that you like them!

Same here born in 2001 watched the O.T and prequels and heard the prequels were bad as a kid never understood the hate and still don’t to this day

There are a lot of idiots who assume that a character is badly acted simply because they don't like them. Never mind context or a filmmakers intentions and personal style, Anakin whines and Jar Jar stepped in poo, therefore Jake Lloyd, Hayden Christiansen and Ahmed Best all suck! Forget that Hayden Christiansen can express more with his eyes than Daisy Ridley can with her entire face.

​​​@@tomnorton4277I completely agree 👍👍. Based on the criticisms I have seen towards Anakin is that he"s is "too awkward" and "too whiny" and some have stated in the comment sections of some PT hating videos that it's because of bad writing and directing and I was like... WTF😮. How? I have ave only been a SW fan for a few months now and when I watched TPM for the first time I knew that Anakin would be the way he was in AOTC due to what was set up in TPM. I figured he would be cocky, arrogant, bold and emotionally troubled. Obviously there are other traits and elements to Anakin's character in AOTC but I didn't pick up on the rest of his traits until I started to rewatch the movies. So I don't get why people thought otherwise about him and found him unlikable. He was hella likable in AOTC, sure he had flaws but he had positive traits too, it's like PT haters and critics just ignored the many scenes of him being funny, silly, playful, snippy, bashful, intelligent, innocent and absolutely gorgeous😂😂

fixed

Thx lol

Most people like Hayden nowadays because they’ve had time to digest why Anakin behaved the way he did in AOTC. Stuff like him having to repress his emotions for 10 years people don’t learn until the refugee ship scene. By that time there were several scenes of him being angry or forward/awkward that made people say, nope don’t like this guy. Also people inventing fan fiction in their heads of who he was for nearly two decades didn’t help either. It’s really just people taking the “bad” scenes from these overblowing them to an outrageous extent. It doesn’t help their they’re surface lever takes either so that’s how the bandwagon started. Look at the CGI argument for example. No research or thought put into those arguments, just CGI is bad and he is lazy now apparently.

@@mikenadj.j4355 It might've been better if the more monotone voice was reserved until after he's fallen to the Dark Side. But I. have no problem with it overall, it seems strangely fitting for a former slave who's had to suppress his emotions since childhood. Once his mother is dead his conditioning is starting to wear off and the monster is emerging. You're right about exaggeration, people nitpick every line, you can easily do it with the originals as well.

You are NOT a minority

@@scepticalbeliever Hayden's a master of expressions and body language. If Anakin never said any dialogue, you would still have a good idea of what's going through his head simply by watching him. The fireplace scene is an excellent example of visual storytelling that is somewhat ruined by corny dialogue. And yes, I know it's intentionally corny but it distracts people from appreciating the physical acting. People who say that Hayden and Natalie don't have chemistry either don't know how to read body language or simply can't be bothered to do so. They focus on what is SAID rather than what is SHOWN. Anakin and Padme were practically undressing each other with their eyes and were eager to jump each others bones but both knew it was a bad idea. It's masterfully conveyed through body language. Hayden Christiansen never got the fulfilling career he deserved and although Natalie Portman managed to make one, she apparently had to deal with a bunch of idiots who associated her with the "Prequels are bad" movement and didn't recognise a good actress when they saw one.

@@tomnorton4277 It's mostly his voice that annoys some people and some delivery (but that's on Lucas, he should've had it fixed in ADR).

If you want to know more things about the Prequels I suggest you should check out a video made by Rick Worley: The Prequels are better movies than you deserve, part one. I learned a lot from that video!
