Case in point, back in highschool we were arguing James Bond, I said "For Sean Connery will always be James Bond." And without skipping a beat, my buddy chimes in "Sean Connery was never James Bond." Shocked

I have tried to mentally document the reasons for my social noncompliance. Not trusting others' information is deeply seeded, and requires much work on an individuals part to overcome.

This intrigues me.... Did he just start with Roger Moore?  Please don't tell me he only knew Brosnan.... I might punch my screen.

Don't know. I know when I was young, and assumed that the beard had always just been a part of his face, I didn't make the connection and had to be told. But by HS I was making connections by voice, eyes, sometimes mannerisms.

Did anyone else feel that all the interaction between Anakin and Dooku, in TCW, was a poor fit? I always felt that the exchange between the two in Ep.3 was to imply that they hadn't seen each other since Ep.2.

However I will say this about that: cartoon Anakin was way better than movie Anakin. (Sorry Hayden)

It still fits imo.   Shoehorned?  yes  but still fits.  Its a few months instead of a few years.    I agree.  Anakin's portrayal in TCW was light years ahead.  Really to show someone like him rise and fall it would take more than 2 or 3 films. The show gave them that time to show his pain and resentment grow (asshole Windu).  But to be fair I think Hayden could have pulled it off with a better script and director.

Blasphemous statement. Sean Connery is legendary and is part of the franchise, one of my favorites and best actor to take the mantle in my opinion.

The reference is to a line in the sequel Army of Darkness.
True True!  I was refering to the Evil Dead as the franchise not the movie XD...However I was recently in Evil Dead the Musical at my College and that was one of the lines (which of course came from Army of Darkness)

Dude so true...Windu treated Anakin like a five year old and practically led him to the dark side...Like I love Sam L Jackson but c'mon Lucas why did you make his character such a stuck up dick

There were a LOT of Jedi that were....I think sanctimonious is the perfect word for them. All the while the war was weakening their resistance to the Dark Side. For those watching S7 (which I was thoroughly enjoying thru E4) I love how Anakin "dealt" with Trench. Of all the many shortcomings of TCW as a series, the one arena that has not failed me has been the portrayal of Anakin and his struggle against his baser nature: "I'm powerful, you're not. Do the math."

Just finished reading The Approaching Storm. Without doubt, the most boring and ridiculous of the Star Wars EU novels I've read thus far. I don't usually read something and have a burning desire to tell people about it, but wow, avoid at all cost.

“You think you know the depths of corruption that plague the Jedi?” Saso hissed. “I’ve seen it, I’ve experienced it, I even embody it. Every breath I take is an affront to their lofty ideals and idle Force worship… and so they seek to exterminate me.” He looked deep into Barriss Offee’s eyes, “they were not successful in purging me from the galaxy, and neither will you be.”

Which is funny since it was written by the man who technically began the EU
