I was surfing the web and came across a review of the movie The Chronicles of Riddick by a man named Garth Franklin. In the review he really hit the nail on the head as to the reason, the past two Star Wars prequels have been so disappointing.
Here is the quote:
The thing about sci-fi is that many people mistake it for a genre which it isn't exactly. Science Fiction, like period pieces or animation, determines the setting of a story - the tone of it however can be anything like an emotional drama, poitical thriller, action epic, slapstick comedy, murder mystery, horror suspense, and so on. The best sci-fi out there manages to use its setting to its advantage to beef up an already strong idea for a story. That's why the best 'sci-fi' out there are the likes of the family drama/civil rebellion action of the original "Star Wars" trilogy, the jungle assassin thriller "Predator", the political action- dramas of the "Star Trek"/"Babylon 5" universe, the elaborate techno-twisting tales of "Doctor Who", the conspiracy-fueled investigative drama of "The X-Files" or the stalker horror or war movie antics of the first two "Alien" movies. These are strong character-driven complexly plotted dramas who just happen to use space, planets and/or aliens as part of their setting.
Bad sci-fi on the other hand becomes so caught up in exploring all the minute details of the mythology that it forgets that strong characters and clever stories are far more important than the look of the alien creatures or worlds the film is filled with - that's how we get mediocre crap like the first two "Star Wars" prequels.
I just thought people might find it interesting!

Is it me or does Hayden Christensen really resemble Elijah Wood as Frodo in certain photos? Maybe it's the hair.

I thought he looked more like Ewan McGregor in one picture.
I had to do a double-take.
I will admit, that red-headed dude has me quite curious as to what he is in the movie.
Guess I'll find out soon enough...

What I find more interesting are the pictures where Hayden is all burned and cut up.
Select to view spoiler:
Obviously right after the famous Anakin versus Obi-Wan duel and Anakin falling in the lava!
