''When you put the belt on, there's a little place where your lightsaber clicks in,'' says Hayden Christensen, referring, of course, to the Anakin Skywalker costume he dons for ''Episode II'' of ''Star Wars.'' ''It's just like, 'Holy s---!'''

(Who knew young Jedis favor rattails?) Christensen, a virtual unknown before Lucas tapped him, took to wielding a lightsaber with full Force. ''It's the most fun I've ever had in my life,'' he swears. ''And to be honest, it was heavier than I expected.''
