And that scene in Obi Wan Kenobi was heartbreaking, especially the part where he said "Anakin is gone, I am what remains", with his original voice fading into the Darth Vader voice it absolutely destroyed me lol. He was so far gone only his son could bring him back to the light.

Even Yoda felt that moment lightyears away. This was the moment he began his turn and Vader was in the making. And I dont judge him for that.

The moment he says, "You didn't kill Anakin Skywalker... I did" with an absolutely satanic grin behind the mask is one of Hayden's most brilliant performances. Just goes to show what he can do with proper writing and direction. EDIT: concerning the "proper writing and direction" comment, I only had this sequence in mind and not the entire series. I think the dialogue, albeit short, is beautifully written and the duel masterfully executed and shot.

But jokes aside, him and Ewan and the rest of the cast made my childhood awesome. I hope we get to see more of him.

For sure, the prequels got me into Star Wars (I'm in my late 20's). I didn't know at the time that Anakin Skywalker IS Darth Vader and when I watched RotS for the first time in cinema, I was shocked to see how it turned out with him becoming Darth Vader. I would love to go back and experience that just one more time but watching them all in order, not knowing how it all pans out!

Corruption, failing faith in those you should trust. Telling your best friend that you HATE them… that is the dark side. He played that part perfectly. He deserves much more credit. That one moment when he screams “I hate you” it broke Obi Wans heart, and was the final bit of rage that completed Anakin’s transition to the dark side. When he was resurrected in the suit, and learned that Amidala was dead… the rage and anger fueled him as Vader.

Especially when it came to the two actors, their chemistry alone set it up beautifully, but the acting was glorious. And when people get to those scenes PAY ATTENTION TO THE EYES! Like your eyes without uttering words obviously talk so much about what's going on inside and out. Hayden still does fabulous with that in this show throughout it, and like he did in the Prequels, idk that was my favorite thing about his and Ewan's acting their eyes weren't dull they showed the pain, they showed the stories. so yeah I just really think that is the key.

Honestly i have NO IDEA what people would be expecting. the trailer made it really clear that the show was set mere years after the empire took over, & Obi-wan, practically having lost everything by that point, would obviously be depressed & cynical. it also didn't help with the fact that the people that he had to deal with most of the time had to either be the oppressed, assholes or oppressed assholes, & he, unlike Mando & Boba, was just too tired to wanna deal with all that shit. just how flashy & high-spirited could a show in such a setting, which was made obvious enough in the trailers, could actually be?? did the haters actually expect Ben to just act like how he was before the republic & the Jedi order came crashing down?? By the way, just like how you put it, that scene alone makes everything else worth it. it's after all, a showdown between 2 miserable gits who had, objectively or subjectively, done terrible things & had a lot to live with. both had little to live for at that point & that emotional baggage that both carried could have easily crushed anyone else. it's really thanks to the slow, depressing, seemingly bland development of things in the prior episodes, that ultimately contrasted & made that ultimate confrontation look so well-done.

@@CaptainTitforce Maybe, but there are a lot of great actors who could play the role of Iron Man too, yet it doesnt make them a better fit for the character than RDJ. Same concept here. There are actors who could possibly play Vader/Anakin really well, but none of them would fit the mold quite as well as Hayden does. He showed the internal struggle better than most actors could have, and cared more about his character than most actors do about theirs.

@@jinxx44 Except you have no proof whatsoever to state that other actors couldn't portray the character. Christensen just is the only person who has played young Anakin in live-action. People said nobody could match Jack Nicholson as the Joker, then it turned into Heath Ledger, and after that even Joaquin Phoenix portrayed the character well. Hell, some would argue that just the voice of Mark Hamill is the best joker.

@@CaptainTitforce I didn't say they cant portray the character, I said they probably can, but they wont fit the mold as well as Hayden does. I dont understand why you feel the need to force me to agree with you lol.
