To cheer me up

[dangermousie]

Because I am still thinking about RotS (general reaction level: arggggghhhh! Noooooo!!!!), I need something to cheer me up.

So a pic of kid-Anakin from TPM.
Did they just pick the most adorable looking kid (he looks like a living anime toon) on purpose?

Russian novel length reaction post to RotS is coming but not this afternoon as lots of work...

My little cousin is 8 and he has just discovered the joy of SW. He adores Ep. I. The podracing, the lightsaber duels with the oh-so-cool-looking Darth Maul, the fact that Anakin is so close to him in age. It's very cute. :)

Awwww.... Yup, the kid hero thing is what would have made this great for me if I was a kid.

This will sound funny, but recently seeing the film again through his eyes somehow made me appreciate it more. It's fun and it's light (for the most part), and Anakin still has so much hope. It provides a nice contrast for what ROTS is going to be. :)

Watching the two back-to-back would be a great case of whiplash...

*nods* Even the thought is kind of painful.
