Can't answer the question, but this made me laugh:

Especially that there is a "why" heading.

The "why" section was actually very convincing;
"the scene with Elan is one of those scenes that makes it wothwhile to tolerate Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman's flat acting. Matt Doran manages to infuse more life into a character that has a few seconds scene than some of the other major actors did in their much more important characters."

Can't disagree with that.
