I don't mind the Anakin of episodes II and III - I just have difficulty mentally fitting the 'Anakin' shaped character into the 'Vader' shaped character, without a lot of mental gymnastics. I see that stage he was at the end of RotS as merely the start of the development into the Vader we see in ANH, and while I can fanwank that journey in my head, I would have liked to have seen a more direct relationship on screen.
Em... In case you haven't noticed, I can talk about Star Wars pretty much non-stop. Sorry 'bout that :)
