2 pieces of interesting Star Wars news.
https://www.facebook.com/StarWars/video ... 940326940/
I found it really cool personally.
2. A rumor that Hayden Christensen might be returning to the franchise as Anakin/Vader once again. This might prove controversial, but what do you all think? Link to the article:

What do you all think of these pieces of news?

Using modern tech to appeal to the masses is always a good way to get the attention of all sorts of people, not just pre-existing fans.
This... May or may not be an unpopular opinion but I actually like the idea of Hayden as Anakin. I believe he was the very unfortunate subject of bad writing and directing in the Prequels but in other regards he is not a terrible actor. So personally I'd love to have him back with these new writers and director(s?) to see how he does!

What if it's a flashback though?Syrena Exan wrote:Yay to the first one. Big fat boo to the second one. It wouldn't even make sense, not even as a Force ghost. He was redeemed when Luke saved him before death, and his ghost never should have been updated to Hayden. It should have remained the older actor, and still should remain someone old.

I'll second that, Aelon. I liked him as Anakin as well.

HOLLLYYY!!!
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
*Coughs*
Wow, that was amazing. I loved it!
And I have no trouble with Hayden coming back as Vader. In fact, I'd endorse it! With better writing, I'm sure he'll shine as he should. If you look back, as far as expressions and general disposition, Hayden captured Skywalker well, it was whenever he opened his mouth that things went to hell (mostly because he was spouting utter nonsense).

Yeaaaah that's fine. They really could only bring him back for that or a ghost. Or those clones.. I hope there's no clones..Korona Rihera wrote:What if it's a flashback though?Syrena Exan wrote:Yay to the first one. Big fat boo to the second one.

Re: 2 pieces of interesting Star Wars news.
However, coming back into the franchise really depends on the how and/or why. If it makes sense, then sure, I think Hayden with a good director - and his passion for star wars - would nail whatever role he was given.

That's why I'm fine with if Hayden comes back for flashbacks, but not if it's as a ghost.

Re: 2 pieces of interesting Star Wars news.
What of the Force Ghost willing decided to return in that form? Anakin's Visage in the suit is something I doubt anyone would have wanted to be reminded of... So he took on his younger form as a sort of "This is who I want to be remembered as."?
On the other hand of the spectrum, both Yoda and Obi-Wan willingly gave their lives not only for a greater cause but also with the mindset that they accepted being their older selves and had no quarrel about being remembered that way.
The weird things I think about...
