Re:Star Wars
Hayden was much better at angsty bad guy than whiney teen, IMO. I wasn’t expecting that at all.
But Natalie Portman seems to be the only one in the movie who doesn’t enunciate, or is it just me? I mean, everyone else has a kind of epic presence. Not just the British accents, Jimmy Smits and Samuel L. one-of-the-gods-in-pet’s-pantheon Jackson have a classic delivery style. But she just sounds like some chick they picked off the street.
In other movies where her delivery matches other people, I think she does well, but matched against those pros she didn’t really fit in. It was like the difference between a celebrity-voiced national commercial and a local “I’m-the-owner” commercial.

The Honey is comparing the plotline to a greek tragedy and that part to Othello, but not the, erm, writing.
MacGregor was alarmingly Guinness, you’ve got that right. Whoa!
