I've never seen the altered version before, and ... YIKES.

[mekkio]

All the changes bothered me but that...no, no, no.

I think red letter media included a rant about this that was pretty funny (and I agree with you wholeheartedly)

While I object to Lucas photoshopping in the plank of wood, the original actor didn't fit with the basic look of Anakin as developed in the prequels. He did either have to change the actor or drop the sequence, and while I think it would make a stronger narrative to have dropped it, a change was a decent second best. A Forty/Fifty-ish actor with a general resemblance would have been a much better fit though. Sticking with the plank is taking the "Vader killed Anakin" a little literally, plus it makes it "Vader killed Anakin until he got better after twenty years".

I was coming here to say this was one change I didn't mind, but when you put it this way, I can see the problem. Keeping the original actor obviously would not have worked. People probably would have seen it as a mistake or oversight rather than as "This is Anakin as he would have been by the time he died, not as Vader or pre-Vader." Giving Christensen different hair and making him up to look a bit older might have worked better.

I actually scrolled back up to look for the "plank of wood" in the pic before I realized you meant Hayden Christensen. :)

Fun fact, George Lucas digitally replaced all the trees of Endor with identical trees only moved a quarter inch to the left.

I reopened the secret looking for a literal plank of wood before I got it.

It really is a sucker punch for Anakin as a character. Forget the last few decades of his life - did you see his face when he died? He was hideous!

Wow, that's stupid. The alteration, i mean.
