Like instead of an 8 yr old, he was a like 14? They could've even cast Hayden Christesen in it. This is how he looked in 1997 for reference: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/bf2efe1c.jpg

I always point to Lukes terrible line delivery when people talk about PM. The series has always been plagued with these issues. Its just nostalgia.

The prequels depend on Anakin being a hero that falls and I think its the biggest weakness. Having Anakin introduced as an adult who Kenobi notices and trains. Hes preternaturally talented and oversteps being a hero. Movie two clone wars, Anakin is the big damn hero but relationship with padme is found out. He gets booted from the order but still is active in the war. Sith starts with him just a force using military guy, allied with the Jedi but there is some distance there. Still a friend, still a hero, but the rift is started by choices that make sense. This allows a fall that makes sense.
its ok to like the prequels as is but this is roughly what I would change. Shrug. --- Why be stupid? Does it make you happy to be stupid? ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think the relationship between him and Padm would have felt a lot less awkward if he had been a similar age to her when they met. Some little kid having a crush and growing up expecting the feeling to be reciprocated was quite wierd. Definitely not how I would have written it.
There's a lot about Anakin's character in general that's just off. I had a hard time buying the angle that his Vader turn was some tragic story because he was always giving off psycho vibes. Didn't really play out like a good man falling to the dark side which supposedly what his story was about. --- Work in progress bass guitar sound- https://vocaroo.com/17qBOSAFwIfM (Anesthesia- Pulling Teeth) https://voca.ro/1SflYnZYcUrr (Call of Ktulu riff) ...

Might be alone on this, but no. Him being an innocent and naive child is a great precursor because it makes the audience think, how did this sweet little guy become an evil ruthless destructor?

Well, George Lucas' writing and directing would make anything not good, but an older Anakin would be better. Just have him be a moisture farmer with his mom and older half brother Owen. Circumstances have him meet the Jedi who see his potential. He decides to run off to have adventure and excitement in the Clone Wars to escape the boredom and drudgery of being a moisture farmer on a backwoods planet in the galaxy. Owen wants him to stay and forever holds a grudge against Obi Wan for taking his brother away and leading him to his doom.
Also, the clones should have been the bad guys. The Republic gets desperate and starts a draft leading to a highly militarized culture that's ripe for turning into a fascist dictatorship by Palpatine, who has been scheming the whole time. --- Fix your hearts or die.

I would have loved to see some of the character traits from the series be present in the film versions but that's not what we got. I feel like we needed one solid, entire movie of Anakin being the badass war general that we saw in Clone Wars. A lot of the problems with the Prequels boils down to the fact that we only see Anakin in his prime as a Jedi for like half a movie before he turns to the dark side. Clone Wars does a beautiful job of explaining why he was so jaded with the Jedi and the Republic by the time of ROTS and why he was so desperate to avoid losing Padme after losing his mother, apprentice and his faith in the Jedi. Why devoting your entire life to being a soldier and suppressing your feelings would leave you mentally fucked up. But....we don't really see any of that play out in the movies. If I'm being honest, you could probably take out TPM, and do a movie in between AOTC and ROTS and the trilogy would be much better. --- I have nothing else to say ... Copied to Clipboard!

Just have the author of the RotS novelization write all the scripts. That novel is seriously good and elevates the prequels. It's amazing how simply telling the same events in a different way can make them so much better. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The whole PT would have been better if Anakin was the hyper-orthodox Jedi purist while Obi-Wan was more of the rule-breaking rebel. If Anakin had feelings for Padm (but didn't act on them, because of "the Jedi code") but Obi-Wan was banging her in the bathroom, it would have made both of their paths make more sense

For the story? No, part of the tragedy is that Anakin was at perhaps the worst age to start training to be a Jedi, and that having his mother and Qui-Gonn ripped from him in such a short period was something the Jedi (except the aformentioned Qui-Gonn) were equipped to deal with. Obi-Wan failed to be the guiding figure Anakin needed being so steeped in Jedi tradition, and that wouldnt have come across nearly as good with an older Anakin. For Jake Lloyd? Hell fucking yes. What the Star Wars fanbase did to him is a tragedy. ... Copied to Clipboard!
