    Kinda hypocritical of anakin, especially since he also was an annoying little shit when he was a kid

    Fun fact, the grown up actor who played young Anakin regrets his role, a lot.

    At the time, it was a lot of fun to work on the movie sets, but he didn't get paid a whole lot of money (and I'm sure his parents stole it). In college he said that to everyone that is all people focused on. "You used to be Anakin!" It's sounds like no one was really mean to him, but they certainly didn't give him kudos for it. He said it was very hard to distinguish him in any other way. Also, he did not grow up to have Hayden Chistensen's good looks or imposing height.

    Dakota Fanning and Haley Joel Osment are the only good child actors I know. Maccauly Coulkin maybe was adequate but he was propped up by a very solid director that understood how to work with children. While George Lucas is an amazing storyteller and a pioneer of visual effects. He is not very good at humaning.

    At one point he floated the idea of replacing ALL actors with CGI representations and even put out feelers to buy the rights to iconic dead actors like John Wayne and Marilyn Monroe. That drew a huge backlash. Modern actors can give informed consent on whether or not they want their likeness used post-mortem, but John Wayne couldn't. When he was alive, it was inconceivable that technology would advance to the point where that was possible.

    Anyway, that is a symptom of George being bad at humaning if he mused that he would like to direct a movie without actors in it!

    There is nothing to stop us from re-watching older Star Trek, but I think the franchise may be dead. The Star Wars brand is heavily damaged, but it's not dead.

    I am big fan of cartoons and Jeffrey Combs has done a lot of voice acting, usually as villains, but it was his performance as the Question in Justice League that made me order all the Questions graphic novels. No regrets. Very unorthodox comic stories but very compelling.

    I can also thoroughly recommend Jeffrey Combs in Transformers: Prime

    Watched the final episode of Picard last night.
    I really don't get the haters. Sure a few things were not great but this was pretty solid. I liked it.
