Who exactly is Palpatine? (theories welcome)

Where the hell did this all come from? that's enough. finti, or someone who knows how. close the forum.

The entire forum?

yes, enough is enough. You try to have an intelligent discussion and people just start blabbing about stupid things. Smart tangents are ok but race in star wars? I think chasing amy covered that pretty well. close the damn forum

the forum refers to the whole episode 3 discussion area. this is called a thread. would you like him to still close the "forum"?

thread, whatever, close it, or tell me how

lol. You know dude, you can't take a joke very well. I don't think Star Wars is racist or anything like that, it's just an old joke to say that Lando and Mace are the only black people in the galaxy.

just watched ESB ... (well, before the CL) and there is a black security guy when Lando walks to Han... now HE could be family 😉

back on topic

maybe that's the big revelation in episode 3, Palpatine is really black! and bleached his skin like Mike! AND he's Mace's father! 😆

Dantius Palpatine was a young man on Naboo who was approached by Darth Imperius. Palpatine showed some incredible potential, but he was no where near Yoda's skill, or Midichlorian count.
He eventually found one of the legendary Kyber crystals (the one seen around his neck in ROTJ) and used it to destroy his master and begin his plan for conquering the galaxy.

I don't recall seeing anything around his neck in that movie, mickey.

wat about u shut up mickey(no offence if your not him).

I'm not mickey, and none taken. I just read alot of interviews with George Lucas
he's the one who originally mentioned the kyber crystals

and it's not said in the movies, nor the radio dramas nor the novelisation, nor has GL ever said they were in the movie

in other words: it's NOT canon, so don't mention them already

I was wondering maybe palpatine had two personallities one good and bad like one was trying to fight off the other just thought for now bye.

Possibly, but Palpy is pure evil now. He does a good job at trying to hide it though.

This story about there always only being 2 Siths - Master and apprentice does not realy make sence! How much compition could the sith have been in the past if there were only 2 at any stage?

If there was only suppose to be 2 siths at any time how many generations of sith would there have been in the 1000 years.

And if it is true that there where siths in that 1000 years, what did they do? Because they were totally inactive or extinct according to the jedi.

Palpy's powers must be very strong if you think that he had to life under the noses of the jedi without being caught.

Wonder, maybe Darth Sidiouse is a totally different person from Palpy! And Palpy is under control of Sidious's - This would be an exiting turn in the story! Darth Tyranus did say that the sinate was under control of a Sith Lord...
