"A film is a product and as an actor you can only sell it if you sell yourself. "You don't get to sit at the table before you're ready to give away your integrity. Maybe it works for Orlando Bloom. It doesn't for me."

Legolas is gonna go ape-shit.

I am not saying acting is easy work, yet it's not especially hard and you're being paid MILLIONS for a role (especially an Orlando or Hayden). He says he's not interested in it? I think with the movie biz, you get out of it what you put into it, or what roles you pick.

Deal with it, Hayden.

by **deathmoogle** » May 24th 2005 6:33 pm

At least we won't get him playing Merriman in the future Dark Is Rising movies *shudder*

by **deathmoogle** » May 24th 2005 6:41 pm

He's pretty much been critic-bashed out of Hollwood (even though the chicks seem to dig the guy). I wonder whether he'll design wooden houses. Stay in character :mrgreen:

In all fairness, he wasn't bad in ROTS....

by **deathmoogle** » May 24th 2005 6:56 pm

don't make me KILL you... Quite possibly worst acted line ever :whatevaho:

by **flaxer** » May 24th 2005 7:32 pm

He's just living the American dream make enough money so you don't need to work seriously any more, then go do what you like and with all the money that ROTS is making, I'm sure his pockets are over flowing.

Don't get me wrong, I like him as an actor (maybe AOTC was his weakest film, but he's done some other pretty good stuff, including ROTS), but hell, if he wants to quit, and go do stuff outside the spotlight, more power to him! (and not the dark kind of power.)

kinda reminds me of Mark Hamill. He's doing what he likes now and I seriously doubt he has to worry about money either.

OH NO!!

Sounds like bullshit.

by **cantina_patron** » May 24th 2005 7:49 pm

He told Britain's The Sun newspaper

Isn't Sun a british tabloid of the National Enquirer type? I doubt he even talked to them.

by **flaxer** » May 24th 2005 7:50 pm

and they jab at him pretty good about his fitting in the suit at the end of the article can't believe i even read that whole thing shoot me now.

I don't believe a thing in this article. Tabloid shit.

I don't know what you're smoking but he's very convincing in ROTS.

But he might be smart to quit now or else become the next Mark Hamill....

What, Mark Hamill sucks too?

by **Warham** » May 26th 2005 12:54 pm

Mark Hamill went on to even bigger fame after Star Wars doing the voice of the Joker in the Batman cartoons.

by **Warham** » May 26th 2005 1:08 pm

Romantically linked with Portman?

Lucky bastard.

by **Pax Britannia** » May 27th 2005 10:17 am

I only wish he quit before the prequel trilogy

Hayden IS Anakin. Think about it we could have ended up with Ryan Phillippe :mad:

by **femme01** » May 27th 2005 10:48 pm

Or ended up with Leo Dicaprio.

Nah Lucas would never picked the recognizable actor for Anakin.

Architecture eh well, he was always good at building things.

Oooh, oooh pulling a Newsweek. Better check the reliability of that, cause here's what else they say:

by **MannyOrtez** » June 8th 2005 10:29 am

Natalie did a "I'm going to quit acting" thing after AOTC. It's all bullshit. Hayden did a great job as Anakin on the whole, and he was really good in Life as a House, so I'd be surprised to see him hang it up that quick. Critics only jumped on him b/c its Star Wars, and b/c Lucas' dialogue is admittedly sometimes cheesy.

by **normack** » June 17th 2005 9:51 pm

he sucked anyways but then almost all the acting in the first 2 prequels sucked.

so its probably not be his fault and i haven't seen the third one yet so if he has redeemed himself I don't know.

by **VRWConspirator** » June 23rd 2005 12:52 pm

I think Hayden did the best he could with what he was given. While he is a great creative visionary, Lucas is not exactly a great director, he is admittedly the "King of Wooden Dialogue," and more than any previous movie, the actors had to play pretend with green/blue screens.

I wonder if the increased usage of CGI will result in acting schools offering classes on how to effectively act and react in that kind of setting.

Regarding Hayden's bitter griping about not acting anymore, even if it is true, one less Hollywood actor is never a bad thing.

Stage actors and sitcom actors are always being called upon to act as though they're in a closed room. It's called "using your imagination."

People are just going to have to accept that stiff, poorly-directed acting is a hallmark of George Lucas movies, and stop trying to make excuses that "explain" how it's really better than it appears to be.

by **AgentPendergast** » August 1st 2005 9:24 am

Today's update: Hayden Christensen set to *start* acting.

by **Devil Dodo** » August 1st 2005 10:41 pm

Yes, surely it would be more dramatic to start acting before you quit it...

:roll:

by **rhonderoo** » August 4th 2005 9:22 am

I'm disappointed you guys can't tell real news from tabloids... :lol:

anyone who says Hayden sucks as an actor has not seen him in Shattered Glass. Watch that film and see a completely different person. The man can act.

by **flaxer** » November 12th 2005 1:16 am

i thought he was good in life as a house too

by **klm42** » November 29th 2005 6:23 pm
