BTW, did anyone else get the same feeling that I did while watching the film that Adam Driver’s performance as Kylo Ren is more or less what Anakin should have been like in the PT?

100%, that’s one of the first things I said coming out. Confused and angry > whiny and creepy.

If by Anakin you are meaning Darth Vader… after his turn and before he got the suit and was hunting down Jedi in secret… which we should have seen in the prequels then I would agree.

Anakin Skywalker was a noble Jedi, the best star pilot in the galaxy, a cunning warrior, and a good friend right?

I guess what I am getting at is I wouldn’t have wanted to see him portrayed as angry and confused and throwing a tantrum when things go wrong until well after his character was established as the way it was originally described.
