the old thread was closed a long time ago, so im posting this.
with the release of the new trailer, we see that palps is fighting with his saber (probably against yoda) and he is very much deformed....so...certain previous theories on his appearance have been proven wrong.
with that said, here's the list...
palps is deformed because of:
1-vader's force-tantrum (wrong)
2-palps reviving vader (wrong)
and now the theories that remain sound:
1-yoda f***s him up bad (doubt it)
2-palps reveals his true appearance(im banking on it)
please please please dont bomb this thread with the "palps is sidious' clone" ridiculous theory, its already been officially rejected, so just forget about that.
a sith lord called sidious who took palp as his apprentice, yoda kills sidious palap finds anikan takes him as his apprentice and becomes emprore palpatine the new sith lord
you DO realise that ian mcdiarmid plays sidious as well, correct?
so palps just turns out looking exactly like sidious!?!?!? are you kidding me???
look, one of the two theories stated is correct.
unless you have something to add, or a profound new theory
that does NOT defy all common logic, please just leave it be.
to prove that this is sidious, take a look at his hilt on the lightsaber...it is sidious' saber. So that has been established. I believe that he looks different than he does in RTOJ because there is a very large time gap and thus he would look differnt. (should be about 20 years from episode 3 to episode 6). I think that if we are allexpecting to see him looking the same as in RTOJ, were all gunna be disapointed. If you take a look at the new footage on the ESB DVD, u can see that sidious' hologram looks very differnt from RTOJ. I wouldnt be surpsrised if sidious looks the same between the new holograph in ESB and ROTS. Thoughts or comments?
My theory makes sense! SIDIOUS DOESNT HAVE TO LOOK THE SAME AS HE DOES IN ROTJ! IF U ARE LOOKING FOR %100 CONTINUITY WITHIN A 20 YEAR TIMELINE, U WILL BE SURELY DISSAPOINTED!
