Darth Vader Was a Loon!

According to professionals, Darth Vader was a bit...unbalanced:

Experts from the psychiatric department at France's University Hospital of Toulouse told the APA's annual meeting that Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader could "clearly" be diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.
...
The French psychiatrists -- who included Laurent Schmitt, M.D. -- based their diagnosis on original Star Wars film scripts.

Schmitt's team describes Skywalker's symptoms, including problems with controlling anger and impulsivity, temporary stress-related paranoia, "frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment (when trying to save his wife at all costs), and a pattern of unstable and intense personal relationships," including his relationships with his Jedi masters.

Changing his name and turning into "Darth Vader" is a red flag of Skywalker's disturbed identity...

A report was also released by the Screen Actors Guild whose studies show that Hayden Christensen's acting was so bad, he actually sucked the acting skills out of fellow cast members like Samuel Jackson.

Sounds like perfect fodder for an aside in a Kevin Smith movie.

It sounds to me that George Lucas' directing skills were so bad that an *acting* black hole was created in Hayden Christensen, which then sucked the acting skills out of everyone else around.

Obviously, a stable wormhole could not be formed...
