And don't forget - Lucas deliberately picked unknowns who could act for the OT (for the main roles, at least). For the PT, he picked very famous people, and toned them down.

"Case in point he looked like a joke in "Shattered Glass" opposite Peter Sarsgaard who probaly is the best actor right now."

How fair is this? You put him up against an actor whom you say is the best, and then say "see how bad he is!"? Now, I'm not a huge HC fan, but that's a rather biased comparison to put anyone in, though for the record - I thought he did a great job in "My Life as a House". If he had been able to show that level of anger earlier on in AOTC, I think Anakin's character would have been much more believable, tragic, and........well, "dark" - as he should have been.
