Yes, Mace deflects sith lightning into the man's face.

Also, I thought this was cool...
Mas Amedda and Sly Moore are among the few who do know that Palpatine is the Sith!

wow...that......sucks....... 🙁

GREAT FIND!!!! That is awesome. I'm glad to have that question finally answered. Seems weird that his face would turn "yellow in anger". Probably some of the best info yet. Nice job beater69!
bananas for you...

good stuff

I think when they say his face turns yellow i think they mean his eyes turn yellow and has a pale complection.

Wow, somehow that's kind of dissappointing. I guess I would have preferred that his chancellor visage was an illusion. Plus, it's just another point of discontinuity between the prequels and the OT we'll just have to ignore. By that I mean why wasn't Luke's face disfigured by the same sith lightning in ROTJ? The stuff lit his face up, but no deformity. Anyone got any plausible ideas to explain this?

or blue....

ok....how old is he then....*ducks for cover*.....

That dose not explain his teeth though and i think it has spoilt it for me i wanted a bit of magic in there by him turning. I am a bit disapointed and i hope it is not mace i hope it is yoda that defaces him. Also sounds like a lot of mutliation will take place in this movie

ah HA!!!!!!! Where is PVS with his ancient Palpatine theory? Nice find!

It doesn't really deform him as much as it exposes his "true self".

Excellent find

OK i just zoomed in on the first pic and read it. I doesn't say that his face is DEFORMED by lightning, it says that his true face is REVEALED by it!

kinda like the red robes....should tie in nicely with the imperial guards....and the decor of his office....wonder who's in charge of sith interior decoration....

ok noob....look next to his face on the right,.....it does in fact say deformed....

can u guys not read? It says his true face is revealed by deflected lightning, so it was an illusion, his own lightning striking him must have dropped the facade..so it's still cool

yeah, who's the noob now, huh?.....

still don't like the velour "fat robes" though....

Actually it does say that so we really dont have a definitive answer yet I'd say.

obviously you are......i guess im the only one who can read "Face deformed...sith lightning".....so keep your mouth shut until spoken to, and hes not your boyfriend, he can speak for himself.

And you are right yet again JP....thats why i love ya!! 😄

i dont liek the whole "deformed" crap anyway.

If thats Palps face after its disguise is removed. I wonder what Maul looked like when he was trying to hid his true 'sith' face?

like an 80 year old tatood woman.
