Don't EVEN get my started on how crap Hayden Christensen was in that role! I write Star Wars fan fic (mostly Old Trilogy, Darth Vader stuff) and one of the hardest things to deal with is the slaying of the younglings. I just don't buy it. I mean, there's evil...and then there's killing kids evil. I just...it doesn't compute for me. There isn't some switch you flip and all the sudden you are a psycho kid-killer. I think that Lucas f-ed up bigtime in the prequels. Which is a shame because he had so much time and such a rich tradition to draw from. It was such a huge let down.
LOL @ Powerpuff/CSI cross! HAHAHA!!! Seriously though, its really about skill and know what can and cannot be done. In crack/comedy you can do some off the wall stuff. Have you seen that book "Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters"? That's crack fic!
