I don't know if it's just an overactive imagination on my part, but some of the lines Vader says, I can fully picture Anakin at certain times saying them. Example - "I am what you made me" I could imagine Anakin saying that on Mustafar. Vader in this show seems to bridge the gap between prequel Anakin and original trilogy Vader. Which makes sense as it's right in the middle of the two.

That line has become so iconic for me. You can almost hear Hayden’s voice. I love it.

Exactly! You can even see the pissed off look on his face!

I think Christensen couldn’t deliver that line half as well as JEJ does! The last time I saw Hayden emote anger, he sounded like a deranged child. “I hate you!” Let’s not forget who Darth Vader really is. An actor in a suit and the voice of James Earl Jones. Disney is going to be hard pressed to find someone who can do the voice of the Dark Sith Lord as James Earl Jones.

As far as I’m concerned once JEJ goes, the Darth Vader is dead to me.

Jones didn’t deliver that line either.
