If it's something I have never understood, is if it was so obvious that Sidious was Palpatine, then why did he always have his hood up to hide his face, even from his own apprentices? Do you think Lucas may give some clue to that in the third one?

as part of sith tradition and to hide his identity from nute gunray and others. they are only partially in the loop.

It's walking on all fours and grunting for me!
damnit! Palpy in the Original trilogy wore a hood, luke wore a hood, obi wan wore a hood, its part of the costumes. As for the part where Sidious and Palpy are the same guys aint a fact yet, and i dont think they actualy are.

Woah! You don't!? You have got to be only the second person I have run into since Episode 1 to actually agree with me on that. Everyone was always fighting against me on that issue so I got to a point where I just didn't care anymore. I'm willing to go both ways on it.
And as far as the hood thing goes, chill out! It was only a question on why he had to hide his identity even when he was alone with his apprentices, okay?

come to think of it, since that the sith are (as said in the ep I DVD, created by a fallen jedi who got seduced by the dark side), they kept the jedi clothes but made it black (or at least dark).
So, after it being their "official" clothes, the hood indeed gives them the secrecy thingie but I guess that besides the Neimodians, it wasn't really needed
Loook here is what I beleive....they are the same but not totaly. I think they'll be something to do with a clones. Like one being the clone of the other.

Yeah I also am hoping we get to find out how Palpy disguised himself. One scene he is Sidious speaking with Dooku, and the next two, he's paply looking off at the beginning of the clone wars. Hopefully this is explained in the 3rd Episode and I hope it's a good reason as well.
Well in your opinion maybe it doesn't, but in mine it does. Think about it. Look at how many people have been all dazed and confused thinking Palpy and Sidious are two different people. It is understandable people would think this because you see Palpy and Sidious in scenes right next to eachother and the roles are completely opposite. Many questions have been raised about how Paly can interchange so quickly taking on both roles at the same time.
In Episode 3, Palp will reveal himself as Sidious, and many people are going to be confused because they don't take the time to look deeper and read the spoilers like we do, let alone not everyone has taken in all the aspects of the OT.
See what Sidious is doing is something that is very mysterious and unique. He can disguise himself. Not explaining how he can do this after he reveals himself as both 2 people would be like the creators of Spider-Man not explaining how Peter Parker gets his powers. We know he can shoot webs, but how? Well some know that Sidious and Palpy can be both the same person, and some of want to know how he can manage this. Maybe it's Sith Magic perhaps. Who knows? I don't. So for me, I would like an explanation. It won't ruin the movie by any means whatsoever if one is not given, but it would be something to learn from and would give things plenty of clarification which makes it more sense.
