James Bond actor Roger Moore says โ€˜SKYFALLโ€™ is the best Bond movie ever made. โ€œDaniel Craig is, without a doubt, the Bond. He has just got it all. He brings to Bond the killer instinct.โ€œ โ€œSkyfall is just an extraordinary piece of motion picture. It guaranteed another 50 years.โ€

Hayden Christensen was 23 when Revenge of the Sith came out. He was 42 when he returned to the role in Ahsoka. For 17 of the 19 years in between, he was effectively exiled from the franchise and from Hollywood. The exile was not voluntary at first. Christensen was the focal point of the cultural backlash against the Star Wars prequels in the mid-2000s. The performances were mocked. The dialogue was mocked. The acting choices were mocked. He was 22 years old playing the most analyzed character in cinema history and the analysis decided he had failed. He kept working for a few years. Jumper in 2008. Takers in 2010. A handful of smaller films. None of them landed. By 2012, the offers were drying up and Christensen had largely stepped back from acting. He moved to a farm in Ontario. He spent years out of public view. The Hollywood narrative was that he had been broken by the prequels. Two things happened during those years that the Hollywood narrative missed. The first was the cultural reassessment of the prequels. The generation that watched them as children grew up and rewatched them as adults. What had read as wooden dialogue in 2005 started to read as deliberate stylization. The political plot, which critics had dismissed as boring senate scenes, started to read as one of the most substantively serious treatments of how democracies collapse into autocracy ever put in a blockbuster. By 2017, the prequels were being rediscovered as the most thematically ambitious Star Wars films in the franchise. The second was what Christensen was doing on the farm. He kept training. The lightsaber choreography he had learned for the prequels was technically demanding stage combat, taught to him by stunt coordinator Nick Gillard over months of rehearsal for each film. Christensen never stopped practicing it. When he came back to the choreography in 2022 for Obi-Wan Kenobi and 2023 for Ahsoka, the muscle memory was intact. He was technically better at 42 than he had been at 23, because he had spent 17 years quietly preparing for a return nobody had told him was coming. The Ahsoka scene that the fan accounts keep posting is from the episode where Anakin confronts Ahsoka in the World Between Worlds. The choreography is fast, precise, and recognizable as the same combat style Christensen used in the prequels two decades earlier. The body knows what to do. The body has been keeping the role alive while the rest of the industry was writing him off. What landed differently in the return is that Christensen at 42 has a stillness the 23-year-old version did not. The 23-year-old was performing Anakin's intensity. The 42-year-old is embodying it. The role finally fits the actor in a way it did not when he was first asked to carry it. The audience that mocked him at 23 had also grown up. The audience that watched the return at 42 had spent fifteen years missing him without realizing it. The exile turned out to be the preparation.
The fact that Hayden was 42 years old here and still doing his move to perfection like itโ€™s 2005.

Minkah Fitzpatrick holds the record for most career defensive touchdowns in Alabama history (4). After his pick 6 vs. Oklahoma in the CFP First Round, Zabien Brown is just one defensive score away from tying that record.

The ONLY reason Oklahoma was in the @CFBPlayoff was because of their wins over Bama and TN in the regular season. Those wins came from the @TateSandell1 game winning FG against Bama and 4 FGs against TN. Hush your mouths.
The Lou Groza Award Winner (Best Kicker) just missed this field goal and ended Oklahomaโ€™s season. Welcome to College Football.
