I guess I'm the only person in the world who actually applauded (not literally, but in my mind) the one piece of consistency that this movie contained: that the suit doesn't make Vader. My biggest concern was that he'd still be going by the name Anakin after he turned to the dark side until Obi-Wan kicked his ass, and that, as fan service or because Lucas forgot his own back story (it generally happens), and have him christened as Darth Vader when he got the suit put on. That was the only thing I was pleased with. When Palpatine christened him with his new name, I was like, "Yes, they actually got something right." But apparently all anybody wants to see is suited Vader kicking ass and still call him Ani until he breathes like a scuba diver.
