QuoteReplyTopic: Hayden Christensen: Bad Enuff 2 Win?? Posted: March 04 2006 at 10:11pm
I'm sorry, Haydn Christenson had some moments. I have to agree, it was the dialog that sucked.
However, that remark requires qualification. In the EMpire
Strikes Back, when Han is about to be frozen for all eternity, Leia
says "I love you." What does Han say? More importantly, who
wrote that line, the one that Han says?
Yep, you guessed it. It was ad-libbed.
Here's a short list of actors who could have taken that trash and
turned it into a convincing show of Annakin being a nice guy and
turning into a bad guy:
Val Kilmer
Gary Oldman
Bruce Willis
Leonardo DiCrappio (I hate to say it, but I think he could have done it)
Lest we forget Gary Oldman's most famous line ever: You must have
thought it was white boy day. It ain't white boy day, is it?
(Followed up by a performance in the Fifth element that just plain rocked)
The Razzies just have a thing for Star Wars films. They just don't appreciate them. All of the new trilogy has gotten nominations. Granted, the 1st and 2nd were not that great; but Revenge of the Sith was really good. Hayden Christensen doesn't deserve this award. Jamie Foxx for Stealth or Adam Sandler for The Longest Yard would be more credible choices. I must say that I'm disappointed with the Razzie choices this year. To the Razzies, I say, "go pound sand, you scumbags."
The people behind the Razzie award "nominated" and "awarded" Hayden Christensen with the Worst Supporting Actor RAZZIE. Here's the problem: in their quest to put down the new Star Wars movies in general and Hayden Christensen in particular, they missed that he was the leading actor, and not a supporting actor. It seems as if the people behind the Razzie awards are projecting their own failures and jealousy onto the Star Wars franchise.
Could someone please tell me if there is any point in this current poll? It was said million times that Hayden does not deserve Razzie and Razzie people know it perfectly. Who it was made for? I am sorry maybe I just don't get... Are you guys going to take your Ruzzie back and sorry?
Hayden doesn't deserve this. His performance was fine most of the time. I'm not a fan of him or his movies but my boyfriend dragged me down to the theatre to watch this. I didn't want to because I hated episode 2 but he positively surprised me in episode 3. Episode 2, hands down it was not good performance and story-wise. But again hands down, episode 3 was amazing, the performances were pretty good and none of the performances even deserved a nomination, let alone a "win". This only shows your neediness for a big name movie to attract viewers to come to your site. It's a shame that when someone proves themselves to be better when given the second chance as Hayden Christiensen did from episode 2 to 3, you won't admit that he got better. Only shows the quality and how much this "award" is really worth: nothing.
I can't believe the endless defence of Hayden Christensens woeful performance. I completely agree with previous comments that a lot of the responsibility lies with Lucas, who can make the best actors in the world look like the cast of Neighbours, but our Hayden transcends even that. The poor kid's more wooden than a Norway Spruce. He's entirely unconvinicing in everything he did in both movies, and it's stretching the boundaries of belief to accept his transformation into the Vader of IV, V and VI. A well deserved Razzie.
The dialogue might have sucked but the actor sucked worse.
I watched ROTS (Ironic that the Acronym for the title is "Star wars
rots") and I hated the fact that I spent 8 bucks on watching the
movie. At the end, I was thinking "If I were Vader, I'd kill the
Emperor because he lied! The Emperor promised me that Paddleme would
live. But now she's dead and it's because I sided with the
Emperor. DIE EMPEROR ********!!!!!!" AND THE ACTING DID
NOTHING TO MAKE ME BELIEVE THE CHARACTER WOULD ACTUALLY DO WHAT HE
DID!!!!!!!!!!!
Let's face it, most of the support for Hayden Christensen came from
girls who had the hots for him and idiots who don't know good acting
from bad. (The makeup showed more emotion that Hayden did.)
Hayden may not be the greatest actor out there, but he shouldn't be judged based on his good looks (yeah, I admit it : I think he's a real hottie). I think that when the dialogues suck as bad as they do in SW3 (especially in the scenes that involve Anakin and Padmé), there's only so much an actor can do. Perhaps he was miscast, perhaps he wasn't cut out for the role of Darth Vader. But that doesn't mean that he's hopeless and that he can't do a better job in another movie. I think the guy deserves to be given a second chance. And I'm not saying that just because I want to see more of his gorgeous face...
I guess the people who voted for hayden can't accept the fact that Anakin Skywalker is not like DAMIEN but a bratty guy just like SITHILIS and HARIMAN. and it's common sense Hariman that Vader can't kill the emperor because he's not powerful anymore now that he's a cyborg and has to live with the consequence of his irresponsible actions.
oh i almost forgot to all the razzie voters STAR WARS III won 2 PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARDS beat that!
i thought hayden's act was good...i can't agree with this!mask2 was more 'worthy' to get razzie,wasn't it?this was really something...f**kin.
maybe who vote him can't agree whoever played anakin.they are too much dreamin trilogy's vader.but this movie is movie of george,by gorge, for george.george choose hayden,so hayden is a chosen one.
Wow, Star Wars won a people's choice award? My god! This changes everything!
Oh, wait, no, no, it doesn't. It just proves that people are morons.
I say "Kudos!" to the Razzies, for their fearless defiance of the legions of semi-literate permanent children who now froth with rage on account of the fact that it's been pointed out that the emperor has no clothes. Sorry kids! Star Wars was a bad movie, lobsters feel pain when you boil them, true love rarely is, and nobody liked that "fanfic" you wrote.
Let's face it, most of the support for Hayden Christensen came from
girls who had the hots for him and idiots who don't know good acting
from bad.
You are very wrong. Stop critizicing if you base your comments in preconceived subjectivities: if you happen to know who Roger Ebert is, you should also know that he gave SITH 3.5 out of 4 possible stars. If you didn't like the performances, at the worst it was Lucas' fault with the script (not production): "
The dialogue throughout the movie is once again its weakest point" -Ebert said. And I agree.
The reason for this Star Wars flaming is pure misconception: just like people who hate Star Trek. I happen to be fan of none, but fair is fair. Let Hayden have a rest and let him try to perform a (perhaps) prebuilt wooden character.
Hey, razzie people, it is spelled Anakin, not Annakin. No, he doesn't deserve the award, or whatever you call it. It is such a waste of everyone's time, the "winners" don't even accept it.
