Don't insult Ian McDiarmid like that.

This is actually a line of succession thing, the Sith changed their Rule of Two system after that whole Death Star 2.0 fiasco. Too much of a liability for the Empire if they’re all in one place.

Edit: Twenty-Sith Ammendment.

Underrated edit.

That doesn't make any sense. If he takes off his glasses, then how could he see?

And don't insult Doug Jones like that, either.

One big difference is the laugh lines, a good sign of smiling more often I've heard

McConnell smiles all the time, specifically whenever an innocent American's life is worsened by his sadistic policy decisions.

That's what Jar Jar wants you to think... :-P

.........aight I'm taking the bait.

IT'S IN THE FUCKING MUSIC, FOLKS! Darth Jar Jar is real.

[–] ApostleO@startrek.website 1 points 2 years ago

I whole-heartedly believe that it was real, planned by Lucas, and then the backlash for Jar Jar in Ep 1 made him second-guess it and change the story.

I also believe that if he had stuck to his guns, he could have redeemed that character. A dark Yoda mirror is such a great concept for the prequels.

Far too generous a comparison for Addison

McConnell literally looks like a zombie. Wish he would just keel over and save everyone from this ongoing headache
