While Mark Hamil is not the best actor in the world, I find him far less douchey and annoying than Hayden Christensen. Hayden Christensen just annoys me with his smug and overdramatic acting style. Both series, 4-6 and 1-3 feature their fair share of mediocre acting, which is surprising given the decent actors who star in the films. Part of this is obviously the fault of Lucas who gives us some wonderful script:
"aggressive negotiations" lmao
and using the force to feed each other...
And that's just one of the HORRIBLE FUCKING LOVE SCENES. Come on. Remember the scene where he talks about how coarse sand feels or he is on a picnic with her and those animal things are running around.
At least Episodes 4-6 kept Han and Leia's relationship joke-based (for the most part).
I think the MOST offensive thing though was Lucas' decision to reduce the force to some chemistry experiment. Remember in Episode 1 when we find out that the force is just a bunch of super Jedi sperm that live in people? The midichlorians or whatever they are called.
The whole thing that made the Force cool was that it was some higher God-like power that has to comes from the inside, sort of like some kick ass zen thing. This was the source of much joy among losers and nerds (and my favorite parody scene in Mallrats).
The force has been reduced to the contents of Yoda's splooge after whacking it to some jedi porn. Way to go Lucas, you prick!
