You have three movies to show Anakin's fall to the Dark Side, and after the first one his journey has come to the point where he is homesick and sad. That's. Balls. All that **** about the Chosen One and the midi-chlorians fathering him can go right down the toilet too. Lame. Skip that **** and just give us grown up Anakin from the beginning. Not to mention that it seems to conflict with A New Hope. In that movie Obi-Wan mentions that Luke's uncle thought that Anakin should stay at home and "not get involved". That seems to imply to me that they had a relationship other than just having met once. Which says to me that Anakin probably had a relatively normal, immaculate-conception-free birth with a family and an actual brother.
