Imagine being born after the fall of the republic, not knowing that the force, jedi or sith exist. Spending your whole life planning an assassination on the emperor. Only to find out when you finally make it past all his guards, that he is a god with telekinesis and the ability to shoot lightning.
_Empire_ and _Jedi's_ smart move: the Emperor isn't a fascist general or a fat aristocrat, but cruelty incarnate, a cackling, hoary monster whose passion is human suffering. I'm a little sorry the later movies gave him a name at all.
@@AltumNovo it would be in another story, but the way this story is written, he's the best villain we could get, he's never truly the main antagonist, in the OT that's Vader, in the prequels its Maul, Tyrannus and Anakin, he's a plot device, a driving force, he's not meant to be a great character
Sidious is the best of the best. He owns every scene he's in, he inspires fear and awe to the audience with every word he speaks. He's absolutely pure evil, but you can't help but root for him since he earned everything he has through his own skill and intelligence and at the same time hope he'll be defeated. An extraordinarily developed villain if there ever was one.
Ha ha and all... but the Emperor's an interesting villain because he wants nothing more than to frighten and hurt people. He doesn't really give a shit about leading them, it's just the best way to get his maximum daily fix of human misery.
You're right! Mass Genocide, Crimes Against Humanity and Other Lifeforms, Slavery, Corruption, Patricide, Murder-by-Proxy on Jedi Younglings, and Torture! All these crimes that he's guilty of don't mean shit! He's a hero trying to MAKE THE GALAXY GREAT AGAIN!!! Hail, Satan!
Well yeah, Mace Windu was arguably one of the best Jedi when it came to the use of light Sabers. Darth Sidious actually dislikes having to use light sabers as it ties into being a Jedi or being one with the Force.
@@ithink3979 yup. Anakin immediately after killing the separatists wanted to end Palpatine. But unfortunately his injuries made him most vulnerable to his master.
I'm shocked people don't realise Ian mcdiarmid played the emperor in the prequels and return of the jedi. He's always been the emperor except for that silly hologram in empire. Spread the word guys it's embarrassing people don't know this.
"Best of Emperor Palpatine?" Huh, that's funny. I don't see literally every scene he's in. All jokes aside, this guy is seriously one of the best villains in all of fiction.
That's a good moment for the Emperor's character, yeah, his literal downfall from, not just hubris, but a total inability to consider that he might fail. He created a monster who could kill him at any time, in whose hands he was frail and weak, and thought he could turn his back to it. The character in _Return's_ so fascinating because he's a decrepit shell wrapped around something too evil and prideful to be properly human.
@Kinah Dancing Eagle 88 years for Sidious in Ep VI, and 83 for Dooku in Ep III, only 5 a years gap of difference, but following the lore's logic, Palpatine would pop up his ligthsaber and figth with Darth Vader (and a with the help of Luke, like Obi Wan helped Anakin on Ep III vs Dooku), then a force battle and finally the reactor throw up death, that would be the movie if it was filmed during the prequels time.
The genius of this death was that Palpatine was incapable of understanding love, since he had zero love his entire life, so he literally couldn’t see darth Vader loving and standing up for his son
I've always said that Darth Maul had so much unused potential, in my view he was right up there with Darth Vader in terms of pure malevolence. When he is fighting Kenobi and Qui Gonn and he force grabs that box and slams it into the switch was awesome to watch.
A LOT MORE DARTH MAUL AND no JAR JAR BINKS - that would of made a big difference....Darth Maul could of been in all 3 prequels as the uber villan that they fight thru all 3 films only to actually kill him at the end of number 3...but no lets have jar jar binks - a jew's condescending view of Caribbean blacks - lol.
If they'd played the duels more like _Empire_ and _Return,_ people would think more highly of these movies. Imagine if 3:16 had just been the Senator hacking and slashing his way down the hallway, the Jedi barely warding off every swing, instead of a bunch of slow ballet twirls.
It’s the moment Palpatine has waited his entire life for. His final obstacle to achieving the absolute power he’s plotted, schemed, and manipulated after for decades has at long last been removed (the Jedi broadly, but Mace Windu in this scene specifically). Plus he gets the apprentice of his dreams to boot, one who he can train to one day become even more powerful than himself and continue the lineage of the Sith and their domination over the galaxy. Unfortunately for Papa Palpatine, the Force had other ideas on both these accounts.
dewit i shouldnt dewit its not the jedi way dewit dewit dewit dewit dewit dewit dewit dewit (cuts off dookus head ... why did you DEWIT! ... (laughts uncontrollably) *like if you get it
“Once more the Sith shall rule the galaxy.” Sent chills with his deep voice Really makes you wonder how the Sith, the underdogs in any game, defeated a whole team of Jedi in power when Palpatine was working alone in the end
Bro palpatine scared the shit out of me as a kid lmao I remember being scared of watching return of the Jedi just because of him now seeing rise of sky walker Jesus Christ I would have cried in the theater if I was still a kid
Wait so just how much of the Galactic Empires military knew that Palpatine could use The Force? He had a whole dialogue with Darth Vader about how “Only together can we turn him to the dark side of the force blah blah blah”
Describing the characters 1. A stupid man made fun of hes face 2. A old man that has A bent ligtsaber 3. An traitor 4. A old man that puts Electric things on his hands 5. Same as number 3 6. Same as 3 too
ill never get why they added the no... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO to the ROTJ scene. In the OG cut he just stands silent but his body language speaks volumes, and instantly conveys he is anxious and conflicted, the NO cheapens it
Wait did I just notice that Palpatine’s saber randomly turned into Anakin’s after he jumped up? Starts right after he slices Saesee Tiin and most visible at 3:28 Initially 2:58
How the hell does Palpatine return in The Rise Of Skywalker? Didn't he die after getting thrown down that shaft that led into the Death Star's reactor? Oh no, my young Jason... You will find that it is you who are mistaken about a great many things!
Why this compilation doesn't have the scene of palpatine throwing senate chairs at Yoda? Just the soundtrack of that scene makes that moment one of the best in the prequels.
Palpatine is not just the most powerful Sith Lord in history. In later years, he became the TRUE Dark Lord that the galaxy will dread. A cataclysmic and malevolent god of death, darkness and destruction. The personification of the Dark Side with Force powers so grandiose, it makes him a lethal and unstoppable force of evil himself. In Star Wars, Palpatine is pure evil, and pure evil itself is Palpatine...
Palpatine: I am the senate! Also palpatine: lets create an empire whit me as the emperor Creating the empire he stopped beeing the senate, hope you didn't wanted to sleep
Notice how Palpatine begins wearing his Sith uniform: Black with red trim, upon the birth of the Empire. But when he slinks into the shadows and remains under the nose of the Republic, for the next trilogy, he wears a solid black cloak. Then upon his return, in the Rise of the Skywalkers, he wears his Sith robes again.
Man, I sure am glad that he died in episode 6. As great a character as he was, he will never be brought back, since nobody wants to ruin him by dragging out his death for like, I don't know, three more movies?

7:27 no one could dislike that scene
I like that Mace Windu was the only Jedi good enough to 1v1 Sidious, and that it took him being betrayed by his own in order to be defeated.
Well yeah, Mace Windu was arguably one of the best Jedi when it came to the use of light Sabers. Darth Sidious actually dislikes having to use light sabers as it ties into being a Jedi or being one with the Force.
No, he allowed him to "prevail", so he can force Anakin to attack Windu.
Him and Yoda were the only ones able to 1v1 him

He sells the pitch to Anakin really well.
@@ithink3979 yup. Anakin immediately after killing the separatists wanted to end Palpatine. But unfortunately his injuries made him most vulnerable to his master.
