Dude does grow up to be an eveil-Hitler-in-space. I'm pretty sure we're not supposed to like him, even as a teen.

If I watched them in numeric order (I-VI), I think I would be exasperated by Anakin for the 2nd and early parts of the 3rd films, but hopeful that he would grow out of his teenage idiocy and make the right choices.
That said, knowing what he becomes before going into those films...I would completely agree, we can't like him. Pity him, possibly, but even that is tough since the vast majority of the pain he endures has been brought on by his own actions.

He is not new.. Replacing the TPM Yoda puppet is what ILM did as the test shots to convince George they could handle doing Yoda for 2 and 3... So those shots are from before ATOC...

In the movie yes... but the scene is in one of the documentaries that comes with ATOC... So technically you already own it...

Ki-Adi-Mundi: Your thoughts dwell on your mother.
Anakin: I miss her.
Yoda: Afraid to lose her I think, hmm?
Anakin: What has that got to do with anything?
Yoda: Everything! Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. I sense much fear in you.
Yoda is a superdouche. Really, why can't a fatherless 9 year old kid miss his only parent?

Because the Jedi were baby stealers and even Yoda never met his parents. So, to them, it is all a "What the hell is wrong with you, kid?!" kinda thing. It is irrational to the Jedi...ya know, the whole attachment thing.
Oh, I didn't realize you meant that specific clip and not CG Yoda in TPM in general.

Oh ok, so all pre ANH Jedi, not just Yoda. (I am just having fun at this point Qui)
OT Fanatic: Geezus George, what parts did you tinker with now?
George: Everything! Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to tinkering. I sense much fear in me.
On a side note, it really would be fun to pair together RPF Prequel fanatics with OT fanatics to watch the 6-pack.

I consider myself a Star Wars Fanatic. I do not differentiate anymore between the PT and OT. I will watch all six and enjoy myself.

Who here has the original laserdisc versions?
Would you recommend someone getting a laserdisc player for those versions? Or are those versions released in the previous DVD set roughly equivalent?

Unless you want the LDs as collectables there's no need. The DVD version is the same transfer, and look at least as good if not a bit better.
That conversation was cruel and one-sided, but the worst one came from episode III.
Yoda: Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose.
What kind of advice is that? It's too generic and non-specific to be helpful to someone who's obviously worried and confused. Rather than delve more deeply into this matter regarding a person's potential death, Yoda just falls back on his philosophy that everything is a path to the dark side and declares this meeting a resounding success. :thumbsup
But hey, he'll be CGI in episode 1 so all will be forgiven.....

The Jedi were arrogant and short sighted. Maybe its just me, but a lot of faults Palpatine pointed out regarding the Jedi were very true. Even in ESB a ROTJ, Yoda and OB1 didnt have things quite right. Its Luke who set it all straight. To me the message is balance. Everyone has a little dark side here and there, but extremes in any direction are no good.

Congratulations, you've taken the sarcasm train so far around the track, you accidentally stumbled onto an interpretation.
You think it was for mere circumstance that the Jedi fell? Yoda is so crestfallen at his ultimate failure because he realizes the flaw of approach the Jedi had been taking for centuries, as it was exploited by Palpatine.
Yoda's advice sounds that way to you because it was written to sound that way. The flawed Jedi had to fall to give Luke something to restore balance to.

Thats cool. So essentially the originals ARE available. So what is everyone still asking for?
