The only way Empire comes close to making sense is if it covers several weeks or even months. The idea that Luke trained up in just a couple days is obviously absurd, and since the Falcon had its hyperdrive broken yet managed to get from Hoth to Anoat to Bespin, there must've been some serious passage of time. (Realistically without hyperdrive, the Falcon shouldn't've even gotten to Anoat, but it's Star Wars not 2001.)

I always figured Hoth was right next to Anoat but Bespin was several systems away. The ice planet might have been near the edge of the solar system & the asteroid field was right across the border.

Hoth was close enough to its sun to have daytime and a breathable atmosphere. Even assuming a much brighter sun than Sol, it would be well within the system's Kuiper belt and Oort cloud. And if Bespin was "several systems away," even with closely packed systems that's a long way without hyperdrive. The only thing that makes sense is that ships have a second FTL system that's slower than hyperdrive.

I also thought they should have shown Anakin recovering in a bacta tank at the end of ROTS, so what do I know?

I always thought that in the prequels the battle droids should have been the same model or similar design to IG-88. An army of IG-88 droids would have been much more menacing than what we got. Then IG-88 could have been a survivor of the Clone Wars.

I don't have any doubt that for some of the younger generation that's getting a first taste of SW it's a "good thing to experience". However for some of us SW veterans it's the constant rehashing, new improved, first time ever, remastered, delux, special edition, directors cut of the same stuff. We have VHS, VHS Sets, DVD singles, DVD Sets, BR single, BR Sets, Series sets, Saga Sets and we'll soon get a SW:PM 4-Disc 3D Combo set followed by a SE:3D Series set.

This makes me laugh. I guess he watching his own acting would make him swear off Star Wars. Cause he tainted it.

But if you look at the history of most child actors, they always turn out screwed up in someway. They are hired as child actors (most of the time because they are cute), and when they get older nobody wants them because they really can't act. They never live a normal life because they are homeschooled or have a tutor on the set, and many kids end up fighting with their parents over their fortune after they turn 18. (McCauley Caulken)
I still say shame on his parents, as any parent who gets their kids involved in acting at that young of an age is using them for their meal ticket.

And sharing scenes with an actress who started as a child too, and later wins an Oscar. STFU.
And why did he major in Film in college?

I was just wondering why he would do anything in film, after his experience. Then swearing off Star Wars, but then accepting money for appearances based on his involvement...

While it might suck to have to do it, he might not want to go by 'Jake' if he doesn't want everyone to instantly think of him in Star Wars. Jacob Lloyd might be an option. It still is his name (i'm guessing Jake is short for Jacob) and will at least cut down on his Anakin recognizability.
I wonder how much he actually remembers of the filming.
