I wouldn't say the GOAT because there are too many who could be called the goat, I think there is a group of Star Wars goats and he is up in the top 5 at least
Unfortunately the older fans at the time ruined his experience playing Anakin, yet he was the perfect Anakin. Hayden defined an entire generation of Star wars fans.
@@CS97660 yet the sequel is actually are just bad. They switched directors on each movie and it caused a bunch of problems. Also I like Hayden, reys actress can't act to save her life. Plus they made her a Mary Sue that's good at literally everything the moment she tries it. Hayden had some campy dialogue sure but he worked with it and still made a fun couple of movies.
@@equalstone1813 kinda ironic hey, you're clowning on those who hated on Hayden, and you're doing the same to this generations movies. Absolutely brainless LOL
@@CS97660it’s not the actors that the people don’t like, they’re just badly written movies and the cast did what they could do with what they were given
This is really great to see his reaction to fans who really loved him as Anakin Skywalker because at the time after the prequel trilogy Hayden wanted to quit acting because those films were so poorly received and he felt that his efforts while acting as Anakin were wasted then up until this point finding out that so many people love him.
It were some of the dialogues, not his fault as an actor. The guy did what he could, and that's why fans love him. I wish people would had made him aware of that earlier.
I feel like critics have always been on this man’s back for some reason. Aside from a couple roles, they tend to be overly harsh on him. Not just Star Wars but others too. And none of it is deserved.
Saw him with his daughter in Hollywood once, I didn’t even wanta bother him by staring too much but it was the cutest thing and he looked like a great dad. But even with all that cuteness, all I could think was IT’S VADER! 😂
To see this man get such a warm welcome back to Star Wars after all he went through when the prequels first came out really makes me smile. Hope Hayden how much he is loved by the fans who grew up with him
I’ve met him too, and I swear this guy has the most infectious energy. When you meet him amd you’re talking to hime, you feel so comfortable around him and you feel like you’re talking to a friend that you’ve known your entire life!
The amount of dedication he put into training for the films will always amaze me!!! His acting in Revenge of the Sith always gave me goosebumps! He did Anakin justice and I love him so much ♥️
I really thank God for have living enough to see this justice. This man made a great job, he was a incredible actor and time and love of the fans prove this!
He really seems like just a genuine humble good guy-I don’t even see him as a celebrity. I see a humble actor who feels blessed for the love being showered upon him.
They need to bring hayden back for a vader series of all his darkest times hunting and killing monsters and jedis we just need this disney bring this and youll have been forgiven for the three films which we cannot name
When you’ve taken so much hate from people you don’t even know, I imagine it must still be shocking maybe even uncomfortable to receive such high praise. I’m glad he’s back 💯
@@jellojoe00 I remember people hating it but I loved it. Pretty sure a lot of people loved his acting I was just around 10-12 years old. We kids loved anything star wars back then which was why they made the toon in the first place. Darth Vader and Jedi concepts were pretty popular to early teens. I think it was because of the video games Jedi knight series. So watching a Jedi knight turn into Darth Vader was just chef's kiss material.
Star Ward fans need to remember to stop immediately shitting on actors for the characters they portray. He didn’t write the lines, but he still gave it his all.
Was amazing and super emotional being in this crowd for this moment, absolutely adore Hayden and always have, love how the fans that loved him as kids when the prequels came out are now here as adults like myself showing him the love he deserves after all the years the “fans” hated him when it wasn’t his fault
The fans destroyed him. He never deserved that hate. I wasn't a fan of the prequels in so many ways. But he was important to so many young fans. He deserves the love.
Boomers tried to ruin everything. Us kids that grew up with you always loved you Hayden! You ARE Anakin/Darth Vader 🥰 I legit still have pics of him on my phone 🤣
You are the true star in Star Wars and the only reason I had an interest and gave the movies a chance. Star Wars was never my type of film but I fell in love with Anakin bc Hayden was Anakin
He deserves it, especially the way he was treated when the movies first came out. Now it took all these years for people to realize how good he really did as Anakin. You can't ever picture anyone playing that role again. The lightsaber duels and stunts he done all him. He was the only one that took it to that level,even helped with the fight scenes. Dudes a natural on the saber unbelievable good. And now as Vader,he has ada😅that role and learned the movements ,the fighting of Vader. Hayden brother that's earned bro. Hope to see you in many more star wars series and movies.
Man I know as much as people like to shit some of the new Disney star wars. But ya gotta give them credit for giving Hayden and other actors a second chance to see how great they are. It warms my heart that Hayden gets to see how appreciated Hayden is. I think because now a lot of those kids are grown up now and can express how loved he is.
Hayden did a fantastic job in this movie. I was only 5 when the Star Wars prequels were released and i feel so bad for all the hate all the actors got. Anakin and Jar Jar were my favorite parts of the prequels that I never felt scared of which is important because Darth Maul haunted my dreams.
you know you made it when you’re the dude before he becomes one of the biggest iconic hero/villains in Star Wars and even had the original older Anakin replaced with yourself at the ending of the original trilogy.
Can we really question Hayden's reaction? I mean this man got hated on for years that he had to quick acting, and fans accept him out of nowhere. Welcome back Hayden!🐐
My fave Starwars episode is revenge of the sith it had the best light sabre duel and it took 30 years to finally understand why and how Anakin turned to the darkside of the force and the birth of Darth Vader. them haters 20 years ago were oldtimers hating on the new kid.
As a teen i watched Star wars 1-3 in german, and i loved all of them. i dont know how he was in english, but don`t hate on this guy, he was a good choice.
They were hating and yet his version of Darth Vader was remembered by history as the most iconic villain in cinema history, along with Voldemort, Heath Ledger’s Joker from The Dark Knight, Norman Bates from Psycho, Hannibal Lecter and many, many more. Plus he’s the sweetest and most genuine guy.
I only hope that this is only the beginning of Hayden seeing how much fans cherish him. The people who railed against the Prequels really shouldn’t have been the voices he heard.
The younger audience (like me) mostly liked the prequels, probably because as kids we didn't really care about the shitty dialogue, at the end of the day you care more about what you consume the less free time you have, so we mostly ignored the dialogue and focused on other aspects of the movies. And at the time we simply didn't have the possibility to make our voice show, so now it's cool to see just how many people were silent enjoyers of the Prequels.
This was so great to see. We love Hayden.
thank you Matthew
(my name is also Hayden)
Haden Christensen is the true GOAT of Star Wars.
him and ewan possibly had the best live action acting in star wars
ewan brought the personailty to obi-wan
hayden brought the emotion to anakin
Fr
precisely, he is the chosen one! :D
I wouldn't say the GOAT because there are too many who could be called the goat, I think there is a group of Star Wars goats and he is up in the top 5 at least
I hate sand...
Unfortunately the older fans at the time ruined his experience playing Anakin, yet he was the perfect Anakin. Hayden defined an entire generation of Star wars fans.
But now the same older fans when saw what disney did to star wars, now they love him
Kinda like how the fans nowadays say *the sequels suck!* but defend Hayden. Hypocrites

He got tired of death threats. The fans treat him like garbage.

I feel bad for Hayden.
So great to see Hayden Christensen getting the respect he deserves!
I remember when people were hating on Hayden's portrayal of Anakin for the prequels....now he's finally getting the love he deserved from the start.
I think he played an amazingly memorable Anakin Skywalker. To me HE IS Anakin. Love this guy so much!
I actually think this changed his life. Star wars is the reason he gave up with acting and now he sees, that those people were haters not fans
I don’t think Hayden ever quit. I think he just took a break. Actors are allowed to do that
@@HunterJumper-sf8cbyeah a 20year break. No lad the generation above us made him quit. It was us growing up and saying our piece that brought him back
True@@NaughtyFox1331
Hayden Christensen and Brandon Frasier. Both will forever hold a special place in my heart.
Whenever i think of anakin skywalker, this is the face that would come into my mind. He did great and im sure millions of fans love him.
Saw him with his daughter in Hollywood once, I didn’t even wanta bother him by staring too much but it was the cutest thing and he looked like a great dad. But even with all that cuteness, all I could think was IT’S VADER! 😂
He really chosen one...
He can not be replaced he will forever be anakin skywalker
True
To see this man get such a warm welcome back to Star Wars after all he went through when the prequels first came out really makes me smile. Hope Hayden how much he is loved by the fans who grew up with him
He’s so awesome
Deserves every bit of it
Got to meet Hayden last weekend and he was so kind. Literally the only famous person I wanted to meet and he was just like a normal guy
I’ve met him too, and I swear this guy has the most infectious energy. When you meet him amd you’re talking to hime, you feel so comfortable around him and you feel like you’re talking to a friend that you’ve known your entire life!
The Chosen One,thanks you.
So rightly deserved
The amount of dedication he put into training for the films will always amaze me!!! His acting in Revenge of the Sith always gave me goosebumps! He did Anakin justice and I love him so much ♥️
Love Hayden ❤ he’s a legend
I really thank God for have living enough to see this justice. This man made a great job, he was a incredible actor and time and love of the fans prove this!
He really seems like just a genuine humble good guy-I don’t even see him as a celebrity. I see a humble actor who feels blessed for the love being showered upon him.
There was alot of pain in this mans life and career. You can clearly see it when he starts feeling all that love from the room... 😢
How can you not love this guy? So cool
This is exactly what he deserves! So happy to witness the turnaround for him over the years
They need to bring hayden back for a vader series of all his darkest times hunting and killing monsters and jedis we just need this disney bring this and youll have been forgiven for the three films which we cannot name
hoping and praying for that
We love You, Hayden. You were a part of My Childhood and, of course, the reason why I love Star wars ❤.
When you’ve taken so much hate from people you don’t even know, I imagine it must still be shocking maybe even uncomfortable to receive such high praise. I’m glad he’s back 💯
When the story ended I cried seeing you all that way kills me inside
He singlehandedly revived star wars playing a young Darth Vader
People hated it. Took years to catch on with the following generation. Clone Wars cartoon did more to revive SW lol

Hes a good actor he played anakin so well and was good in the film jumper he needs to come back and act again hes good
please never leave haden star wars isnt the same without you
He is a incredible actor.
When i see the revenge of the sith, i love him, this man know how shows emocions and feels throught of the acting.
We wish for him to do a DARTH VADER MOVIE he would make it so much better then anyone can say
I love you so much Hayden ❤

This is why Anakin is my favourit charakter 😊😢

He 100% deserved this
A man who is the only reason why I'm star wars fan
Hayden your the best I loved all the movies and shows you where in
You are the chosen one forever
Goat!!!
We love you legend
I can understand why it means so much to him when so many people have bashed on his performance as Anakin
I love this!!! He deserves all of it and more!!
The fans destroyed him. He never deserved that hate. I wasn't a fan of the prequels in so many ways. But he was important to so many young fans. He deserves the love.
And still just as dreamy
He is the chosen one
❤❤🥺🥺🌹🌹my dear and tender Hayden always i love him🎉💞

Two actors i truly respect are Hayden and Keanu. Just seem like such good people.

I really hope he knows how great he is, that’s my only thing world, make sure Hayden knows
Wow. We're all crying. Love Anakin/Darth Vader! Hayden 💯👍💛
Love the fact he did most of his own stunts. If not all of them, the guy deserves respect.
Boomers tried to ruin everything. Us kids that grew up with you always loved you Hayden! You ARE Anakin/Darth Vader 🥰 I legit still have pics of him on my phone 🤣
Big Time
so true!
First off kid boomers ate 70s and older they weren't involved with wrecking anything
Second the prequels suck
And millennials!
What a lovely person
You are the true star in Star Wars and the only reason I had an interest and gave the movies a chance. Star Wars was never my type of film but I fell in love with Anakin bc Hayden was Anakin
It's nice to see that he gets the love and support he really deserves

This is where the fun begins 😂😂 👏
He’s HIM
Well deserved
Anakin forever
He literally played the Anakin PERFECTLY in prequels and ppl hated him for that 😢
😭😭😭
He deserve respect. He will always be one and only Anakin Skywalker.

He barely held himself not to cry

Can we really question Hayden's reaction?

Revenge of the Sith is like wine getting better the the time Idk how?

Es una lastima todo el hate que tuvo que pasar antes de que se lo reconociera como se lo merece
As a teen i watched Star wars 1-3 in german, and i loved all of them. i dont know how he was in english, but don`t hate on this guy, he was a good choice.

I only hope that this is only the beginning of Hayden seeing how much fans cherish him. The people who railed against the Prequels really shouldn’t have been the voices he heard.
Give him his own show already..
The younger audience (like me) mostly liked the prequels, probably because as kids we didn't really care about the shitty dialogue, at the end of the day you care more about what you consume the less free time you have, so we mostly ignored the dialogue and focused on other aspects of the movies. And at the time we simply didn't have the possibility to make our voice show, so now it's cool to see just how many people were silent enjoyers of the Prequels.
Having someone other than Hayden play Anakin just feels like it'd be wrong
Damn dude u got good edits imma subscribe
WoW Lord Vader is nice to see you 😎👏👏👏👏👏😍
