Seriously tho, alot of the VALID complaints about this series are just, repeats of the prequel trilogy's and that took several seasons of a cartoon spinoff to expand on the untapped potential of the characters
> have, lore inconsistent >under developed characters >bad dialog >incredible fight scenes Be the prequel trilogy Pic unrelated

I saw these movies in theaters as a kid so I do have alot of attachment to them,
For bad dialog, yes the dialog is written fine for the most part,
The problem comes in with how the actors are speaking the words, and that comes down to bad direction, these are highly trained and talented actors, just some of the dialog comes out so stilted
That I can agree with, I think Mark Hamil makes a good point when in defence of Jake playing Anakin that it's hard to act when given dialogue like that.
Not bad dialogue, but when given dialogue which just isn't natural to say it can make it REALLY hard to say it convincingly.
With Episode III it's like "Now Hayden and Naomi, you're in your space apartment and here is like.... 5 solid minutes of a script that written like it's come out of Romeo & Juliet... now, MAKE IT NATURAL!"
Jake llyod is a whole other matter, poor kid was just a very bad casting decision when the role should've gone to an older actor
Again not putting blame on his feet, this is on the casting department, they shouldve gotten an actor who can play a role of early to mid teens
No, there is no problem with making Anakin a child and I don't see how a Teenager would do better with the dialogue. Considering we have examples of really good actors (Natalie Portman) struggling with delivery at times.
Also him being a kind, sweet and innocent child is mean it be part of the tragedy of his downfall
