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.

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

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 10 months 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.

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

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

[–] superduperenigma@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

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

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
