He did seem to be enjoying his torture of Luke but I also feel this was due to the frustration of his failure in corrupting Luke more than anything else. Once he realized he wasn't turning he wanted to make him suffer for refusing him before death.
That's a unique approach to handling frustration. Does it work for you? I'll give it a shot next time something's got me so ticked.
Originally posted by Lord LucienI didn't think he was laughing only due to frustration but I do feel frustration certainly was going on in his head after he failed turning Luke.

Originally posted by Lord LucienYes, I'd say it was two emotions mainly joy in the fact he's torturing someone he grew frustrated with for turning down his attempts at converting him.
That was probably the source of his anger, but I think the source of his glee and delightfully sadistic laughter was that he was torturing and killing the last of the hated Jedi. His enemies were all being destroyed--HAHAHA!

Voldemort - and I think one of the key battles here is when Voldemort kills Snape... it's a lot worse in the book, Voldemort drags out the time, saying that Snape is his most trusted servant, has done the most to help Voldemort, Voldemort would always bring his most troublesome problems to Snape to fix.And if that's not enough, he put Snape in charge of his "inheritance," the one place he actually revered - Hogwarts.
And then he kills this man without a glance backward - doesn't even stay to see Snape die off, or tell him that "this is for the best." Nope - just tells the snake to attack. Voldemort didn't even trouble to his confidante himself, he let his pet do it.
That moment shows just how irredeemable Tom Riddle really is.
How old is Palpatine when he starts being evil? Just starting with the new triliogy?
Cause Voldemort killed his own family when he was fifteen. He did disturbing things to the kids in the orphanage he lived in from being an infant, to being eleven. And that's not even starting to train his evilness.
Voldemort.... is a bad. Egg.
Actually, you say that, but here's two things.
1) Age doesn't matter.
2) Palpatine practiced the Dark Side since he was young, and even killed his own master in cold blood.
Palpatine is just as evil, but he's a different type of evil. Voldemort always had great power, but Palpatine WANTED it. He was ambitious, and was willing to kill anyone without mercy to get it.
Originally posted by Mr. RhythmicOh come on now we both know your silly little point at the end applies to Voldemort as well save one critical oversight. Palpatine speculated Vader would dwarf him in power someday whereas Voldemort would never allow someone to outshine him. Ever.

Re: Who is more evil, Voldemort or Darth Sidious ?

This isn't a versus battle this is a comparison on who is more evil and without any redeeming qualities. These two both seem as evil as they come in movies so I think this is a good comparison to make here.Let the speculating begin.
Sidious is not evil at all. He's good actually.
If you watch Revenge of the Sith then you will learn his philosophy.
His philosophy is a sound one. He was also very honest to Anakin. He never lied to him.
Evil is to kill or make suffer for pure pleasure or selfish reasons.
Sidious had a grand plan for the Galaxy and it's not to kill it or make beings suffer for pleasure.

But it was required for the grand scheme of things which is a good for all in the galaxy.

That was actually Grand Moff Tarkin.
Not only did he get Leia to "talk", he still went ahead and blew up the planet anyway.
Tho, it would have been prudent for him to check to see if she was telling the truth BEFORE blowing up his biggest leverage.
Evil bastard. Not very smart, tho.
