It is difficult to portray any chemistry on screen, especially when the two characters suffer from a significant age gap. Padme is already something of a teenager, if not a mature adult in Phantom Menace. Perhaps this is what really angers fans about Hayden Christensen. Even worse, the chemistry between him and Natalie Portman just fell apart and dashed the hopes any old fan had of seeing Anakin portraying his fall to the dark side in a relatable way. This is perhaps the biggest of all mishaps George Lucas engineered: the failure of portraying Anakin Skywalker the right way. As if that were not enough, Hayden Christensen butchered Anakin’s role further in the later prequels. Jackson, for whom George Lucas is reported to have especially made the character of Mace Windu. ![]() There is Jake Loyd who played young Anakin Skywalker and who is reported to have grown up hating the role he played. One of the things critics point to is the horrible acting by some of the actors. Acting – It’s Coarse and Rough and Irritating and it Gets Everywhere It’s all Lucas’ fault! He’s overly critical, he never listens! First, let us look at the common arguments against the prequels: Horrible acting, contradiction to the original trilogy, and JarJar Binks. And while the original trilogy is not perfect, it’s not wholly brilliant as some like to say. While the prequels are not perfect (at all), they are not wholly horrible either. Part of what it is to love something is to acknowledge the good and bad. Now, before readers close the window in distaste, hear the argument. My thesis: Make no mistake, the Star Wars prequels are brilliant masterpieces. Not only that, but since the prequels are held in godly regard, I will also point out inherent flaws in them to show, once and for all, that all movies are created equal, flaws and all, and the best of classics are no exception. I will go further to say that the prequels are not bad but inherently brilliant to their core. Building from what some esteemed colleagues of mine wrote, I would like to deliver an outright defense of the prequels, from their dialogue to the annoying side characters to even the plot itself and the Universe building. More and more fans assume that the prequels are cut out of the Star Wars chronology entirely since The Force Awakens hit cinemas. It’s an unpopular opinion these days, especially with The Force Awakens newly released. Before getting to why, it is only fair to take a look at some of the hard work that went into this masterpiece, in the form of a music video of the ‘Duel of the Fates.’ The prequels enhance the original trilogy and in some ways The Force Awakens in more ways than one. They are masterpieces in their own right. Contrary to popular criticism, the prequels of the beloved saga, Star Wars, particularly The Phantom Menace, are brilliant pieces of art.
