    "You will bow down before me!! Both you, and then one day, your heirs!!" His delivery of that line still gives me chills. I've adored every film this man has done since.

      he has the best Star Wars story about George Lucas not paying him much for a role and he received a very "special" gift one day which ended up being a Phantom Menace stationary set.
