I’m for Hiddleston. He’s got the look, the voice, and a wide enough body of work to probably pull stuff from.

I would have to agree. He is got enough footage to pull something like this off.

Anyway, since we talked about voices and stuff, how about this:

How about someone who can make a good young James Earl Jones/Darth Vader impression voices Anakin? (it shouldn’t sound exactly like Darth Vader, but it should like a mixture of Sebastian Shaw and James Earl Jones) I think that would bridge the series further.

EDIT: By the way, I found this:

It is the recut of the prequel trilogy called “The Blackened Mantle” and it seems most of the story was rewritten. Voice acting is much better (since it is in Japanese and all) and most of what made the prequels suck, is gone forever.

While it is good, it is not perfect by any definition of the word though. I really don’t like the flashbacks thing. (it doesn’t fit very well with the OT) And I really don’t like Darth Maul being Grevious either. (I can live with Darth Maul coming back as himself to fight Kenobi, but I really feal Grevious should be his own character) There are several other issues with the edit as well, but not many of them worth mentioning.
