Ian McDiarmid is the one actor in this new trilogy who is the most seasoned and the most believeable of all the new Star Wars characters. I really think this new film is going to be awesome because Ian is an incredible talent and with the driving power of evil behind his character as well as the balance he must create to lure Anakin to the Dark Side, well, that's not an easy feat to pull off. But from what he has done with the other episodes, he will have no problem pulling this off.
It is just too bad that Ian was not originally part of TESB because he would've made that film good, too. I like that George put him in the DVD edition, but I can only think...what could've been???
Well it's fifteen datys until Anakin's journey toward the Dark Side is complete. How many other Star Wars fans are going out of their minds with excitement and coutning the days, hours, or seconds (for those of you neurotic fans) until our final "gift" from George Lucas is given?
Ian McDiarmid is a true talent, and a major asset to the "Star Wars Six."
Thank you Mr. McDiarmid for playing it so wonderfully for the fans. You are truly one dark mack daddy!!!!
