Not gonna lie, Darth Vader was actually pretty respectful, professional and reasonable here. He set expectations, addressed setbacks and got information for his superior.

Well its true Vader actually kills you on the spot if you screw up, hence the line "not as forgiving, as I am." But the Emperor will make you want death's hands to engulf you after he's done with you.
Actually he doesn’t straight away. If you own up to it, and it’s your first mistake? He will warn you. But if you don’t learn and fuck up again? It’s choking time
Sound wize I love this Mufasa vader best. I forgive the ANH vader voice quality, it's 1977 after all. But meh what evs. I do love the breathing of the 1980 Vader. But again voice I love the ROTJ Mufasa Vader.
Amazing what a budget increase can do between films lol. But in all seriousness, I thought the same thing and just figured it was likely due to having a new suit and the film crew having better cameras and editors. Very interesting watching the quality change in between all these movies, since each one has a bit of a time gap in between them.
"But he asks the impossible. I need more men." That is my favourite line from their conversation. I love that Jerjerrod confided to Vader that he thought the Emperor was being unreasonable. It would seem Imperial officers are comfortable saying things about the Emperor to Vader that they wouldn't say to his face. I wonder what Vader's response would've been if the Emperor wasn't on his way oversee the construction. Vader might be harsh, but at least he's fair.
That's why Vader killing captain needa always upset me. It was the only thing in the entire trilogy that Vader did that was actually unproductive as a leader.
That poor bastard. I really feel his situation. The shear amounts of fear he has gulping as Vader makes his way down the ramp then to be told that the emperor is displeased and coming to see him. Gosh damn that is one terrible situation to be in
You should watch some of the deleted scenes of rotj. Jerjerrod was conflicted about some of his orders. He's a good guy. th-cam.com/video/Gzzu0PF8i04/w-d-xo.html Palpatine orders him to blow up endor but you can tell he really doesn't want to . And here's another jerjerrod scene that was cut from the film: th-cam.com/video/oXxR-TZxiVE/w-d-xo.html
Ever since I was a kid I always thought this was a good scene to show how evil and twisted the emperor was. It does a good job of setting up the Emperor as we already knew Vader is a dangerous villain, yet he, self-admittedly, is not as harsh or strict as the Emperor.
He also doesn’t want to be there considering he’d rather be looking for his son and he was never a fan of Death Stars to begin with... probably thinking “dude shut up and let’s get this done otherwise none of us are ever going on vacation” he seems so over it by this point.
Man how did this oversight happen. Its almost as if kylo ren is supposed to be a screaming, temper tantrum throwing half child who is angry because he was almost killed by his own family despite not having done anything
@@sgthomas1266 but that was the whole point. Vader was someone who gave in to the darkness for power and saving others after he failed he completely gave into the darkness basically without regrets (until Luke Brough him back) and Kylo ren on the other hand is a young adult or post teen who was almost killed in his sleep by his own family. He has nothing and just wants recognition and a meaning and unlike Vader he is supposed to be on the tipping point all the time like "are you a good dude now or still decide to be a bastard with the patience of a goldfish"
Something that's interesting is that even without Vader's last line here you can tell that as terrifying as Vader is the Emperor is feared far more. Jerjerrod lets himself break down a little and complain to Vader about how monumental his task is but the moment Vader says the Emperor's coming he changes his tune entirely.
Yep. It establishes how big of a threat the Emperor is. Jerjerrod might be willing to complain to Vader about things, but once Vader brings the Emperor into it, he immediately falls in line.
Vader: The emperor isnt as forgiving as i am Jerjerrod: Dunno, he seems pretty forgiving about your many cockups Vader: what? Jerjerrod: Overworked technicians on war critical hardware it is, sir
"The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am" After watching the first two movies and then hearing this quote, I actually became empathetically afraid for Jerjerrod.
I love that he says his men are working as fast as they can, and then as soon as he finds out the Emperor himself is coming he says "we'll double our efforts". I guess Vader DID find some extra ways to motivate the men.
I love the MAD magazine take on this. “We are working around to clock to finished it” - V “I suggest you double your efforts” “And work 48h a day? - V “Listen I am a fascist not a mathematician”
@@ravenstrategist1325 Do you know what fascist actually means, or do you just conflate fascism with the Nazis? The Nazis are a very specific brand of fascism, my guy.
Hahaha. Do you sometimes drop Vader's quotes during class? "You haven't done your homework again, Billy? You have failed me for the last time! I'm giving you an F" "You can't that!" "I find your lack of faith disturbing." *gives F "All too easy."
Are you capable of force shocking them out of slumber like the Emperor?? Or can you at least do this... You: Study, for a good future. Student: Yeah, whatever. You: I find this lack of faith disturbing. Student: Choke, Choke, Gasp, Gasp. Principal: Release him.
Stormtrooper 2: "Shut up, man. From what I've heard, the Emperor is way worse. You know Bevel?" Stormtrooper 1: "The Chief Architect?" Stormtrooper 2: "I heard that the emperor killed him with Piranha Beetles and then brought him back." Stormtrooper 1: "What?" Stormtrooper 2: "It gets worse. Apparently, the Emperor kills the poor SOB whenever construction slows."
Props to Michael Pennington, the Actor of Jerjerrod. He perfectly shows the fear and dread he feels towards Vader --- and then ups it to 11 when he hears the emperor is coming too.
In Legends the Emperor executed an indispensable scientist several times for failing him and brought him back with the help of the Dark Side and a clone body. In one case he woke in his new body and could see how the bugs that killed him were still devouring his body. When the New Republic executed him for his role in assisting genocide he had only one request. That they do it right. He was actually relieved as long as he wasn‘t forced to come back... again.
this scene perfectly exemplifies the enormous gap in quality of filmmaking between then and now. just how terrified the officers are of their superiors, despite being loyal dedicated servants. there's no spectacle, no hollywood bs, just a conversation and some fantastic acting. plus the music manages to be enormously intense without being distracting. the original trilogy was a beautiful example of solid honest storytelling. fuck the sequels
Filmmaking will only return to what it was when we stop letting entertainment companies like Disney buy everything. Disney isn’t in the business of making good movies, they’re in the business of collecting people’s money. Bob Igor could give two shits if people like the new movies as long as they paid to go see them. The rest of the people involved in the actual making of the films are just focusing on collecting brownie points from social media in order to keep their jobs in Hollywood.
@PaperBagHead if everything I said was wrong then that means you think that the prequels had good dialogue and the sequels had a good story line. My opinion was that the prequels had a great story line but sucked with dialogue between characters sometimes coming across very cringe. The never sequels had a stronger dialogue between the characters but the individual characters where all horrible making for a failed storyline. I hated Rey, I also hated how they ruined Luke.
I love how Vader is reasonably empathetic here to Jerjerrod's situation; Emperor gives him a task that would be easily carried out if he had the proper resources to do so making it an impossible task in the given time. Vader clearly knows this hence why he doesn't straight kill him unlike if Palpatine were the one confronting Jerjerrod. You honestly gotta feel bad for the dude, he probably realized in this moment he picked the wrong job.
The Officer seems to trust Vader on a level I just noticed, he knows Vader is not to mess with and does not like to be disappointed, but also does not like the Death Star as it uses too much resources, which is why he whispers he needs more men to Vader in a hushed tone, revealing his reason as to why it's taking so long
I always found it fascinating how mellow Vader is in this movie. Like, he doesn’t actually do anything evil- no choking, no killing anyone (except the Emperor). Even in this conversation he’s pretty reasonable and doesn’t resort to violence. I think it’s meant to show how emotionally conflicted he is- he’s just too distracted to be going around doing his usual devious stuff.
It was a conscious decision to make his redemption palatable to the audience. Initially Vader was going to be as hard as he was in Empire, and his death would have been tackling the Emperor into a lava pit to save Luke. Once it was decided his redemption would be less ambiguous the choice was made to make him more sympathetic.
I like how the commander forgets himself for a split second, and whispers inwards 'i need more men', almost as though to seek some empathy from Vader of all people. Though funnily enough, Vader offers the best reassurance that the dark lord can, advising 'the Emperor... Is not as forgiving as I am ". Lol Damn
To be honest, Palpatine actually _is_ more forgiving than Vader. While he's more of a schemer, deriving sadistic satisfaction from subjugating the entirely galaxy, the Emperor is maintaining the illusion that he's a harmless old man. Palpatine is not the type to execute his own officers for failure - he's just usually content to let Vader do so.
Slignerd I don't see how. We all saw how he felt and dealt with Luke when he refused to join him. We all saw the "I have OTHER uses for you" speech with Maul. If you want bring Legends into it, we all read what he did to a certain Bevel Lemelisk when he found out about the Death Star's flaw. True, not in canon but not beyond him. He is that cruel and sadistic. I still say Vader was better to deal with than Palpatine. With Vader, you screw up, he just kills you and it's all over. With Palpatine, he will take the time to make sure you suffer before you die, and thats if he's in a good mood. He might let you live which in some ways is worse than dying
Well, Vader will eliminate officer after officer the moment they fail him, without a second thought. He won't ever show mercy. New canon Darth Vader comics show us some of it - i.imgur.com/qYGCPUH.jpg. Palpatine generally treats his _servants_ a bit better, if no one else. In his own words, he does not wish to rule a galaxy of the dead. Ultimately it's a difference of approach - both are extremely cruel, but while Vader is more straightforward, Palpatine is more of a mastermind, scheming to get his way and rarely losing his composure.
never show mercy? he spared captain piett. also when choking ozzel, he says you have failed me "for the last time" meaning he has failed before. plus ozzel was reckless. Are you accusing Vader of being a liar about his master. besides the point made about luke, maul, and the engineer are still valid.
That´s my FAVORITE scene of all. The movie is such a masterpiece, especially with the sound effects. Darth Vader and the Emperor talk in a sophisticated, philosophical manner... It´s so, SO GREAT. I can´t get enough of it.
Taken from TV Tropes. Bevel Lemelisk, lead designer of the Death Star, was executed by Sidious having him Eaten Alive by piranha beetles as punishment for overlooking such a massive design flaw... and then brought back to life with a clone body and Sith Alchemy because despite this mistake Lemelisk was too much of an asset to throw away. Sidious proceeded to make a point of executing and resurrecting Lemelisk every time something went wrong with the Death Star II's construction, with a new and unique method of execution every time. The punishments we learn about are the aforementioned Piranha Beetles, getting Thrown Out the Airlock, lowered inch by inch into a vat of molten copper ("It was what the smelter used that day."), and being chained in a drive tube while the engine was slowly powered up. This happened six times, meaning there were two more punishments that we never learned the details about. When the New Republic finally got ahold of Lemelisk and sentenced him to death, his request to the firing squad was that they "do it right this time." At least Vader is business-like about killing you; Sidious will make sure you suffer. It gets even worse when you read various stories from the old Expanded Universe which showed that Vader would kill you for failing him, but the Emperor would not only kill you in any number of agonizing ways - as Lemelisk could attest - he would also kill your entire family. One story from Tales of the Bounty Hunters took it even further by implying that even if Vader would off underlings for many reasons, he always had a definite reason for killing them, but the Emperor... he would straight-up kill for pleasure, something Vader never did. The new Star Wars Expanded Universe has this in the form of Operation Cinder, a "contingency plan" ordered by Palpatine in the event of his death. Far from being some form of retribution against the Rebellion, instead it's one final act of spite against the entire galaxy and the Empire, using special climate satellites to devastate hundreds of worlds, ranging from Rebel-held systems to loyal Imperial planets, all for the simple "crime" of being unable to protect him and, in Palpatine's twisted, self-absorbed mind, proving itself unworthy of existence.

Darth Vader was reasonable enough and probably liked the officer enough to give him a Heads Up about the Emperor's pending visit, in addition to giving him the motivation to speed up preparations and assist him with it on more than just the double.
Vader will just kill him, palpatine will kill him clone him kill the clone and keep doing that transference thing until he drives the man's soul insane
In other words Vader will just kill him and get it over with while the emperor will make him suffer pain so bad he'll wish he was dead before finally finishing him off
One of the best character introductions of all time. Having Vader, one of the most ruthless villains in cinema, say that the emperor is “not as forgiving as I am,” is enough to instantly make him the most terrifying dude in the universe without even being on screen.
"The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am" Commander Jerjerrod: like that one time you slaughter a whole Tusken camp? Or that one time you cut Count Dooku's head?
Lol the emperor makes you suffer slowly Darth Vader kill instantly look at Luke or anybody he fight well unless the I am the senate part when the emperor fights with Mace windu and all te other masters with his light saber
Remember when the emperor was just trowing lightning’s to luke he could have end him with the light saber but he wont make it quick and simple he will make you wish for him to stop or to just kill you Already
You may dispense with the pleasantries commander, I’m here to put you back on track. Such an iconic line and one of my favorite scenes in all the movies!
1:03 - it was at that moment Jerjerrod wished he called in sick Side note: Jerjerrod is portrayed by Michael Pennington, English actor Alan Rickman originally auditioned for the part, whom he wanted to play with a "Big, slow, low voice," but lost out to Pennington.
Star Wars 4-6 summary: A senior citizen and his asmatic robot friend rules the universe. All while a 900 year old wrinkly midget is training a boy to murder his own father.
This scene does a perfect job of conveying just how big of a threat the Emperor is. For most of the scene, Moff Jerjerrod has little issue talking back to Vader when he brings up the lack of progress with the Death Star's construction, but the MOMENT Vader says that the Emperor will be arriving, Jerjerrod immediately folds to Vader's demands. Plus, Vader's claim that the Emperor is not as forgiving as he is makes it clear that, should Jerjerrod fail to get his shit together, he is in for a WORLD of pain. Keep in mind, Vader had no problem choking people to death for failure in the last film, so the fact that he describes the Emperor as even worse than he is, especially when failure is involved, really cements just how bad a guy the Emperor is and keeps us on the edge of our seats.
As a kid I had this on audio book and I remember listening to this part specifically would always give me chills because Vader was so evil and sarcastic.
when vader said "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am." i see him as a father figure to hes allience in the army base, like he understands mistakes happen and it can come to a solution, but the emperor...forget it, hes too dark and blind to the darkside and is willing to even kill hes own apprentince just for lack of focus
I like how this scene subtly hints @ how the Empire is starting to fail. The officer’s pleading for more men & the Empire unable to provide. The Empire is a sinking ship but they’re clinging on to the bitter end like any authoritarian government.
In one of the novels it has Jerjerrod's POV when the Emperor arrives. While he's disappointed the Emperor doesn't praise him for the completion of the second Death Star, he decides that the fact he wasn't punished is reward enough for him lmao.
Those of us in the construction business could always relate to this. When the boss from the main office visited a job it was usually because of a problem. We used to say Lord Vader is coming to the job today.
"Bro, if it were up to me, we wouldn't even be wasting time or resources on a single planet killing battlestation, but that decision is above my pay grade."
"I hope so Commander, for your sake!" I love how, despite the fear Vader spreads, even on his own men, in the end, he cares about his men, even those who make mistakes (not in the case of Ozzel, Piette and the "lack of faith" guy).
God, it’s a good cop, bad cop situation, the only difference is that there is no good cop, they’re both bad and this line just proves that neither one of them is genuinely merciful at this point.
You can tell they've got problems with building and maintenance of the death star. I mean just look at that floor, it needs a proper clean and polish. It should be mopped at least every night. Just look at the smear marks all over it. If I was in charge of housekeeping I'd be absolutely embarrassed. I hope they get it sorted before the Emperor comes or he'll get force chocked like Michael Hutchence.
Oh man, I'm a supervisor in maintenance, and I can tell you that I always have to allocate someone to cosmetic detail at work because the people in the expensive three piece suits that come to inspect will go ape shit if the outside doesn't look good, and they will not care about the actual work that gets done.
blockmasterscott you need to get it sorted cause the Emperor is not as forgiving as I am. Though I have heard he takes bribes in cocaine and hookers. In fact forget the Emperor just give me the bride and I'll tell him everything was alright
I spent so many years thinking Jerjerrod was the same guy on the first Death Star whose lack of faith was found disturbing by Vader. In my mind, when Vader said "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am" I thought he was reminding this guy that he could have killed him, but didn't.
I used to think Vader was a super-evil villain. Then I heard him say this. I began to think, is Vader really afraid of this shadowy old Emperor character? That was when I truly realised the power of the dark side.
In Legends, Palpatine had the original architect of the Death Star executed for failing to secure such a huge weakness, then brought back to life in order to improve upon the design and rinse and repeat. Each new failure carried a different method of execution; blown out of an airlock, fed to piranha beetles, lowered feet first by inches into a vat of molten copper, sealed in a room of acidic mist and chained to the interior of a drive engine as it was turned on. Vader wasn't joking when he said this. At least with him you'll die quickly; Sidious will make you suffer.
_"The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am."_
I dunno. He seems like a happy guy. Always laughing . . .
I know right. His smile could brighten up any room
XD
To be fair, he's never physically even gotten angry if I recall. Except the whole "Nooo. ITS YOU WHO'S LOST!"

Oh yeah. Poor guy was probably shitting BRICKS as Vader headed off.
@@dragishawk He wouldn't even be able to escape the Emperor by killing himself, He'd bring him back to life just to torture him

I love how Vader gets to play "good cop". By saying "yeah, he's the mean one." Sends shivers down the conmander and the audience's spine.
I consider this the best scene in the Star Wars universe. The most interesting dialogue at least
Yes
You had to see it in the theater. I remember the crowd going wild when the door was lowered. Never saw that for a villain in a film
Hello there
I feel the opera scene with palpatine and aniken i ep 3 was on par with this one
Pues estás pendejo
Ever since I was a kid I always thought this was a good scene to show how evil and twisted the emperor was. It does a good job of setting up the Emperor as we already knew Vader is a dangerous villain, yet he, self-admittedly, is not as harsh or strict as the Emperor.
"The old, 'good cop, bad cop routine?'"
"....Not Exactly"
Worse cop, worst cop more like
Dad sith and bad sith
I understood that Mass Effect reference
The good in Vader was evident in this scene.Thats why he was so forgiving.
He also doesn’t want to be there considering he’d rather be looking for his son and he was never a fan of Death Stars to begin with... probably thinking “dude shut up and let’s get this done otherwise none of us are ever going on vacation” he seems so over it by this point.
Is it any wonder why Vader is the greatest Movie villain of all time?

@@kittyboygamer6912 u mean the opposite
@@kittyboygamer6912 fun fact: just because a villain is more powerful than another villain it does not mean they are a better villain
Cold, smooth, direct. Somehow Vader seems more menacing than an edge lord who screams, throws temper tantrums and smashes his own equipment.

@@bmyt4249 His point was that kylo didn’t work as a villain, and the sequels were all trash
Someone who is calm will always be more menacing than someone who has lost control.
@@bobagorof Exactly! Thank you.
@@sgthomas1266 but that was the whole point. Vader was someone who gave in to the darkness for power and saving others after he failed he completely gave into the darkness basically without regrets (until Luke Brough him back) and Kylo ren on the other hand is a young adult or post teen who was almost killed in his sleep by his own family. He has nothing and just wants recognition and a meaning and unlike Vader he is supposed to be on the tipping point all the time like "are you a good dude now or still decide to be a bastard with the patience of a goldfish"
Something that's interesting is that even without Vader's last line here you can tell that as terrifying as Vader is the Emperor is feared far more. Jerjerrod lets himself break down a little and complain to Vader about how monumental his task is but the moment Vader says the Emperor's coming he changes his tune entirely.
Yep. It establishes how big of a threat the Emperor is. Jerjerrod might be willing to complain to Vader about things, but once Vader brings the Emperor into it, he immediately falls in line.
Vader: The emperor isnt as forgiving as i am
Jerjerrod: Dunno, he seems pretty forgiving about your many cockups
Vader: what?
Jerjerrod: Overworked technicians on war critical hardware it is, sir
I'm dead. Good one.

Props to Michael Pennington, the Actor of Jerjerrod. He perfectly shows the fear and dread he feels towards Vader --- and then ups it to 11 when he hears the emperor is coming too.
It's been a while since I saw this, but this might be his only scene in the film too
“The emperor is not as forgiving as I am”
That’s saying a lot because Vader literally murders his crew for failing him.
At least it's fairly quick, more or less, but still not a good way to go anyway.
Vader usually gives one chance, if it's not a major screw up.
@@rizwantahir7116 Yeah, but after that...well, say goodbye to breathing
In Legends the Emperor executed an indispensable scientist several times for failing him and brought him back with the help of the Dark Side and a clone body.
In one case he woke in his new body and could see how the bugs that killed him were still devouring his body.
When the New Republic executed him for his role in assisting genocide he had only one request. That they do it right. He was actually relieved as long as he wasn‘t forced to come back... again.
Especially in front of the next runner up
this scene perfectly exemplifies the enormous gap in quality of filmmaking between then and now. just how terrified the officers are of their superiors, despite being loyal dedicated servants. there's no spectacle, no hollywood bs, just a conversation and some fantastic acting. plus the music manages to be enormously intense without being distracting. the original trilogy was a beautiful example of solid honest storytelling. fuck the sequels
Filmmaking will only return to what it was when we stop letting entertainment companies like Disney buy everything. Disney isn’t in the business of making good movies, they’re in the business of collecting people’s money. Bob Igor could give two shits if people like the new movies as long as they paid to go see them. The rest of the people involved in the actual making of the films are just focusing on collecting brownie points from social media in order to keep their jobs in Hollywood.
*THEY FLY NOW*
I actually found the dialogue to be very weak in the prequels and the original trilogy, yet the storyline far superior to the sequels.
@PaperBagHead it’s called forming an opinion on something buddy, I’m sorry if my opinion offended you
@PaperBagHead if everything I said was wrong then that means you think that the prequels had good dialogue and the sequels had a good story line. My opinion was that the prequels had a great story line but sucked with dialogue between characters sometimes coming across very cringe. The never sequels had a stronger dialogue between the characters but the individual characters where all horrible making for a failed storyline. I hated Rey, I also hated how they ruined Luke.
I love how Vader is reasonably empathetic here to Jerjerrod's situation; Emperor gives him a task that would be easily carried out if he had the proper resources to do so making it an impossible task in the given time. Vader clearly knows this hence why he doesn't straight kill him unlike if Palpatine were the one confronting Jerjerrod. You honestly gotta feel bad for the dude, he probably realized in this moment he picked the wrong job.

The Officer seems to trust Vader on a level I just noticed, he knows Vader is not to mess with and does not like to be disappointed, but also does not like the Death Star as it uses too much resources, which is why he whispers he needs more men to Vader in a hushed tone, revealing his reason as to why it's taking so long
How every guy feels talking to his Boss, only to find out the Big Boss is coming
I always found it fascinating how mellow Vader is in this movie. Like, he doesn’t actually do anything evil- no choking, no killing anyone (except the Emperor). Even in this conversation he’s pretty reasonable and doesn’t resort to violence. I think it’s meant to show how emotionally conflicted he is- he’s just too distracted to be going around doing his usual devious stuff.
It was a conscious decision to make his redemption palatable to the audience. Initially Vader was going to be as hard as he was in Empire, and his death would have been tackling the Emperor into a lava pit to save Luke. Once it was decided his redemption would be less ambiguous the choice was made to make him more sympathetic.
Actually, Vader does Force-choke Jerjerrod (the Grand Moff shown in this clip) in a deleted scene.
I like how the commander forgets himself for a split second, and whispers inwards 'i need more men', almost as though to seek some empathy from Vader of all people. Though funnily enough, Vader offers the best reassurance that the dark lord can, advising 'the Emperor... Is not as forgiving as I am ". Lol Damn
You? Forgiving? Oh, yeah, definitely.
Compared to Palpatine, Vader is downright gracious.
To be honest, Palpatine actually _is_ more forgiving than Vader.
While he's more of a schemer, deriving sadistic satisfaction from subjugating the entirely galaxy, the Emperor is maintaining the illusion that he's a harmless old man. Palpatine is not the type to execute his own officers for failure - he's just usually content to let Vader do so.
Slignerd I don't see how. We all saw how he felt and dealt with Luke when he refused to join him. We all saw the "I have OTHER uses for you" speech with Maul. If you want bring Legends into it, we all read what he did to a certain Bevel Lemelisk when he found out about the Death Star's flaw. True, not in canon but not beyond him. He is that cruel and sadistic.
I still say Vader was better to deal with than Palpatine. With Vader, you screw up, he just kills you and it's all over. With Palpatine, he will take the time to make sure you suffer before you die, and thats if he's in a good mood. He might let you live which in some ways is worse than dying
Well, Vader will eliminate officer after officer the moment they fail him, without a second thought. He won't ever show mercy.
New canon Darth Vader comics show us some of it - i.imgur.com/qYGCPUH.jpg. Palpatine generally treats his _servants_ a bit better, if no one else. In his own words, he does not wish to rule a galaxy of the dead.
Ultimately it's a difference of approach - both are extremely cruel, but while Vader is more straightforward, Palpatine is more of a mastermind, scheming to get his way and rarely losing his composure.
never show mercy? he spared captain piett. also when choking ozzel, he says you have failed me "for the last time" meaning he has failed before. plus ozzel was reckless. Are you accusing Vader of being a liar about his master. besides the point made about luke, maul, and the engineer are still valid.
That´s my FAVORITE scene of all. The movie is such a masterpiece, especially with the sound effects. Darth Vader and the Emperor talk in a sophisticated, philosophical manner... It´s so, SO GREAT. I can´t get enough of it.
Taken from TV Tropes.
Bevel Lemelisk, lead designer of the Death Star, was executed by Sidious having him Eaten Alive by piranha beetles as punishment for overlooking such a massive design flaw... and then brought back to life with a clone body and Sith Alchemy because despite this mistake Lemelisk was too much of an asset to throw away. Sidious proceeded to make a point of executing and resurrecting Lemelisk every time something went wrong with the Death Star II's construction, with a new and unique method of execution every time.
The punishments we learn about are the aforementioned Piranha Beetles, getting Thrown Out the Airlock, lowered inch by inch into a vat of molten copper ("It was what the smelter used that day."), and being chained in a drive tube while the engine was slowly powered up. This happened six times, meaning there were two more punishments that we never learned the details about. When the New Republic finally got ahold of Lemelisk and sentenced him to death, his request to the firing squad was that they "do it right this time." At least Vader is business-like about killing you; Sidious will make sure you suffer.
It gets even worse when you read various stories from the old Expanded Universe which showed that Vader would kill you for failing him, but the Emperor would not only kill you in any number of agonizing ways - as Lemelisk could attest - he would also kill your entire family. One story from Tales of the Bounty Hunters took it even further by implying that even if Vader would off underlings for many reasons, he always had a definite reason for killing them, but the Emperor... he would straight-up kill for pleasure, something Vader never did.
The new Star Wars Expanded Universe has this in the form of Operation Cinder, a "contingency plan" ordered by Palpatine in the event of his death. Far from being some form of retribution against the Rebellion, instead it's one final act of spite against the entire galaxy and the Empire, using special climate satellites to devastate hundreds of worlds, ranging from Rebel-held systems to loyal Imperial planets, all for the simple "crime" of being unable to protect him and, in Palpatine's twisted, self-absorbed mind, proving itself unworthy of existence.

This isn't speculation, either, he literally did this in Legends and could probably do it in Canon, too.

One of the best character introductions of all time. Having Vader, one of the most ruthless villains in cinema, say that the emperor is “not as forgiving as I am,” is enough to instantly make him the most terrifying dude in the universe without even being on screen.
"The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am"
Commander Jerjerrod: like that one time you slaughter a whole Tusken camp? Or that one time you cut Count Dooku's head?
Lol the emperor makes you suffer slowly Darth Vader kill instantly look at Luke or anybody he fight well unless the I am the senate part when the emperor fights with Mace windu and all te other masters with his light saber
Remember when the emperor was just trowing lightning’s to luke he could have end him with the
light saber but he wont make it quick and simple he will make you wish for him to stop or to just kill you Already
How about the time he massacred the rebels in that hallway? It's so forgiving, right?
Oh minor details. The emperor slaughtered young children he gave me the order and I.... ahh never mind.
"The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am"
My favorite line in the trilogy
James Earl Jones really brought out the menacing overtone of Vader’s personality.
“I hope so, Commander. For YOUR sake.”
You may dispense with the pleasantries commander, I’m here to put you back on track. Such an iconic line and one of my favorite scenes in all the movies!
I always loved how clean and crisp the set and costumes looked in this scene.
1:03 - it was at that moment Jerjerrod wished he called in sick
Side note: Jerjerrod is portrayed by Michael Pennington, English actor Alan Rickman originally auditioned for the part, whom he wanted to play with a "Big, slow, low voice," but lost out to Pennington.
Star Wars 4-6 summary:
A senior citizen and his asmatic robot friend rules the universe. All while a 900 year old wrinkly midget is training a boy to murder his own father.
This scene does a perfect job of conveying just how big of a threat the Emperor is. For most of the scene, Moff Jerjerrod has little issue talking back to Vader when he brings up the lack of progress with the Death Star's construction, but the MOMENT Vader says that the Emperor will be arriving, Jerjerrod immediately folds to Vader's demands. Plus, Vader's claim that the Emperor is not as forgiving as he is makes it clear that, should Jerjerrod fail to get his shit together, he is in for a WORLD of pain. Keep in mind, Vader had no problem choking people to death for failure in the last film, so the fact that he describes the Emperor as even worse than he is, especially when failure is involved, really cements just how bad a guy the Emperor is and keeps us on the edge of our seats.
"He is most displeased with your apparent lack of progress" - that would be my teacher waiting for my essay.
As a kid I had this on audio book and I remember listening to this part specifically would always give me chills because Vader was so evil and sarcastic.
when vader said "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am." i see him as a father figure to hes allience in the army base, like he understands mistakes happen and it can come to a solution, but the emperor...forget it, hes too dark and blind to the darkside and is willing to even kill hes own apprentince just for lack of focus
I like how this scene subtly hints @ how the Empire is starting to fail. The officer’s pleading for more men & the Empire unable to provide. The Empire is a sinking ship but they’re clinging on to the bitter end like any authoritarian government.
The entire freakin' galaxy at their disposal and this project is the Emperor's top priority and he can't get him more men.
In one of the novels it has Jerjerrod's POV when the Emperor arrives. While he's disappointed the Emperor doesn't praise him for the completion of the second Death Star, he decides that the fact he wasn't punished is reward enough for him lmao.
Those of us in the construction business could always relate to this. When the boss from the main office visited a job it was usually because of a problem. We used to say Lord Vader is coming to the job today.
"Bro, if it were up to me, we wouldn't even be wasting time or resources on a single planet killing battlestation, but that decision is above my pay grade."
"I hope so Commander, for your sake!"
I love how, despite the fear Vader spreads, even on his own men, in the end, he cares about his men, even those who make mistakes (not in the case of Ozzel, Piette and the "lack of faith" guy).
needa captain needa that's the guy you refeered to. Piette died at endor
In fairness to Vader he accepts Captain Needa's apology
Someone does not understand Vader at all, he is threatening him genius
At least Capt. Needa had to balls to go see him personally to apologize.
he cares NOTHING for his men except for the Dark Side
Clumsiness and stupidity is his intolerance, after what happen to HIM at Mustafar
"Perhaps I can find new ways to motivate them."

"AND, if you finish all of this week's projects, there will be a pizza party in the cantina!"

"Forgiving??? Dude you choked 38 people on your way here!"
"Perhaps you feel you're being treated unfairly?"

R.I.P. to the legendary James Earl Jones. Vader wouldn't be the same without that rich baritone of Mr. Jones.
Possibly the most Epic quote of all time
Meanwhile in another universe:
“Apology not accepted, Captain Needa.”
Proof that the emperor is not as forgiving as Vader.
What Vader's saying: "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am."
What Jerjerrod's thinking: "I am so incredibly fucked beyond belief."
You can tell they've got problems with building and maintenance of the death star. I mean just look at that floor, it needs a proper clean and polish. It should be mopped at least every night. Just look at the smear marks all over it. If I was in charge of housekeeping I'd be absolutely embarrassed. I hope they get it sorted before the Emperor comes or he'll get force chocked like Michael Hutchence.
Oh man, I'm a supervisor in maintenance, and I can tell you that I always have to allocate someone to cosmetic detail at work because the people in the expensive three piece suits that come to inspect will go ape shit if the outside doesn't look good, and they will not care about the actual work that gets done.
I'd use my high speed buffer on that floor and some Snap Back.
blockmasterscott you need to get it sorted cause the Emperor is not as forgiving as I am. Though I have heard he takes bribes in cocaine and hookers. In fact forget the Emperor just give me the bride and I'll tell him everything was alright
definitely one of my favourite scenes. Plus that end Imperial March just sounds so good. it's like a royal imperial march of sorts.
Love how Vader is portrayed here; harsh but resonable.
I spent so many years thinking Jerjerrod was the same guy on the first Death Star whose lack of faith was found disturbing by Vader. In my mind, when Vader said "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am" I thought he was reminding this guy that he could have killed him, but didn't.
I love the threatening finger pointing 👉
I used to think Vader was a super-evil villain. Then I heard him say this. I began to think, is Vader really afraid of this shadowy old Emperor character?
That was when I truly realised the power of the dark side.
It's always deeply catch my heart how gentle and polite Lord Vader was...
The fear in the line "The emperor's coming here?" Shows how well acted this was
“The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am”
Maul can attest to that
Alan Hume’s cinematography is the best of any Star Wars film to date.
Vader is such epic character, it took two actors combined talents to bring him alive for each scene
In Legends, Palpatine had the original architect of the Death Star executed for failing to secure such a huge weakness, then brought back to life in order to improve upon the design and rinse and repeat. Each new failure carried a different method of execution; blown out of an airlock, fed to piranha beetles, lowered feet first by inches into a vat of molten copper, sealed in a room of acidic mist and chained to the interior of a drive engine as it was turned on.
Vader wasn't joking when he said this. At least with him you'll die quickly; Sidious will make you suffer.
To quote the clone wars....
"There IS no mercy. Do not worry. I'm not going to KILL you... I have... OTHER.... uses for you...."
