Heh, see how much I care, I didn't even know that. And I was a huge SW fan for ages. Sometime before Episode 2, I realized how very bad Episode 1 had been; and then Episode 2 was worse. I'll see 3, but only because I still like bits of it.

How can you turn Vader into such a pathetic wimp?

Hey Rosie... I promised to tell you how I liked "Dracula". Only about halfway through but I'm quite enjoying it. It's not that scary yet, either. A couple nervous moments, certainly, and some interesting bits... very clever style. It's a - what's the word for a book written in the form of diary entries or letters? And that delightful old language.

I'll let you know if my opinion changes but I think I'm going to have to make you check it out of the library. It's so nice to have a genuinely evil vampire, modern vampires are all just Freudian symbols and nonsense like that.

How can Lucas turn him from the still-good Anakin to the evil Vader in one movie? With time enough to be daddy to Luke and Leia?

Yeah, I didn't like their picks to play Anakin the past two movies. But I was still able to enjoy Episodes 1 and 2 more than a lot of people I've talked to because before I saw them I read the novelizations by Terry Brooks and R.A. Salvatore, which were much better than the movies and made some stuff in the movies make more sense. There are some big plot holes in the movies which the books fill in.
