That can’t be the Emperor because this is the Emperor:
That’s all just snoke and mirrors.
Edit: I’m leaving that typo because it’s funny, and would make for a great Star Wars character name, like Greedo.
So much cooler than a normal dude, change my mind.
this is a normal dude, just lots of facial skin humps and strong shadows, the things thst look like protruding eyes arr just eyebrows and eye bags which strong shadows from harsh lighting.
just the eyes
I can’t tell if you are joking. It was a woman under heavy makeup with chimp eyes superimposed.
idk you posted the picture haha
Here’s a shot of the actress with different lighting:
You jest, but back then this was an actual debate. For most people it was obvious but some doubted it.
Wait, so Darth Vader is

Luke Skywalker’s father?
In a similar vein

Vader is German for Father, so this wasn’t as devastating a reveal in european markets
Dutch, and it’s a coincidence, nothing more.
Darth Vader was actually originally a separate character from Anakin, and his name was just “Darth Vader”. That’s why Obi-Wan addresses him as “Darth”, whereas after that it’s a title, not a name, as Lucas retconned a bit to have a grand plan.
So when he was named Vader, he wasn’t even Luke’s father, so…
No one working on the first movie was even sure it would do well. Lucas may have had some plans in his mind for a bigger story, but at the time he was trying to get the initial movie made. I don’t even know if there’s evidence he had a huge franchise planned out with all the plots, but of course he’d claim he did once it took off.
but of course he’d claim he did once it took off.
Yeah.
Reminded me of: George Lucas is a timetraveler and I wrote Star Wars

German
Very close, alas no cookie. In German, that would be “Vater”. However, “Vader” exists with that meaning in Dutch.
Source on this pls, never heard of it and am resident.
As the other comments will tell you, I’m mistaken on the language
It’s just something I heard before the internet. It could be total baloney
OK, thanks!
I love Democracy.
Seems a bit far-fetched.
I mean Palpatine is a well-respected politician. Their kind wouldn’t lie. He has said himself that his side are the good guys, what more proof do you want?
Just wait till they find out who Darth Plagueis is…
*The wise
Yes the… “wise”… right. :-D
Waiiit. THIS. CHANGES. EVERYTHING.
I will have to go back and rewatch 4, 5, and 6. I thought that was Uncle Owen!
When I first watched RotS I thought that Sidious was only disguised as Palpatine (as in kill-and-replace) and the electrocution had just destroyed the disguise.
This is rebel propaganda!
It is today I found out what ‘the phantom menace’ title was referring to
Darth Sidious and Vadar were played by completely different actors. Your theory has plot holes.
