Is Palpatine the boomerang?

Palpatine was the only good thing about TROS in my opinion. Without him it'd be an utterly worthless movie

I honestly think he is the worst element. I think Kylo would have made for a far more interesting villain.

I do think that the narrative workings that had to happen to make room for Palpatine might have buried the movie because none of it is interesting but when McDiarmid is onscreen, I mean, he's real good at doing the thing he does.

He is. He is very good at being a villain. But man, I just can't get over like a whole navy of ships fully crewed just showing up out of nowhere.

yeah that's all pretty bad. Understand, I literally only mean when he is onscreen and absolutely none of the context. Seeing him go all Universal Monster while connected to some kind of HR Giger contraption is more raw

I liked the interview with McDiarmid saying how surprised he was to get the call and that he did not and still does not understand how Palpatine is supposed to be alive but just rolled with it and went as hard as he could

He always said the fun part of playing Palpatine was getting to be pure evil without any nuance or shades of gray and TRoS somehow escalates this characterization beyond where it was before

I love the part where he's just like "oh would you look at that a dyad I suppose I don't have to die after all look all my Sith followers at his extremely unlikely and timel coincidence aren't I lucky"

Speaking of that, like, congress of ghosts, were we supposed to be happy to hear all the Jedi voices and not think "Oh it's these fuckups again"? Because the ST has a WEIRD relationship with the PT, without it it wouldn't exist or be as well-received. But the PT Jedi fucked up.

I can't get it out of my head how someone posted that they totally misheard Yoda's "Alone... you have never been" as a jovial "Hello! We have never met!"

Is that what really rotted the foundation of this story, Rey being a vehicle for setting up fanservice moments involving old puppets and older Scotsmen?
