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.

You mean his eye lips?

[–] aaaa@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

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

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 1 year 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.

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.

[–] Rudee@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

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

Far too generous a comparison for Addison

One of these 2 can string more than 6 words together in a sentence without shitting themselves then rebooting
