What really bugs me is Anakin's character. In the original trilogy we're lead to believe that he was once a good and noble man who fell to evil and temptation. But all we see in Episode II is a guy who's alternatively a whiney brat or an arrogant jerk. There's absolutely nothing sympathetic about his character at all.

It's almost as if he was...gasp...a teenager.
He's also a Jedi...maybe I just hold them to unrealistic expectations, but I always figured Jedi weren't supposed to be whiny or arrogant.

It just doesn't make sense to me...we're supposed to believe that Anakin was once a good person, but I saw nothing of him in Episode II to back that up. [/b][/quote]
Jedi who follow the light side should be above base emotions and actions such as selflishness etc. Those who fall the dark side are susceptible to such things.
