  • njionononononono

  • HAHAH NERDS!!!

  • "The Republic have been reorganized into the FIRST GALACTIC EMPIRE!" probably best words along with "once more and the SITH WILL RULE THE GALAXY! and we shall have peace"

  • Everything that has transpired has done so according to my design. Your friends, up there on the sanctuary moon, are walking into a trap, as is your Rebel fleet. It was *I* who allowed the Alliance to know the location of the shield generator. It is quite safe from your pitiful little band. An entire legion of my best troops awaits them. Oh, I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive.

  • Indeed the best villian...but..sadly like all bad guys nobody thinks of a sniper just 100 feet away with a rifle...that would end everything in a few seconds! :)

  • its ironic,for all his dark side abilities, that palpatine could not forsee that anikan would kill him...in much the same way that palpatines master,darth plageius could not forsee that palpatine would kill him

  • @damo9811 It was unforunete he could not sense it, but it was because he was concentrated on his own anger on luke while killing him, having all his force and mind to him, not his surroundings. That is why darth vader went at that time and killed him.

  • @LightningCreations i supppose when you put it that way and look at it like that it makes sense,thanks

  • palpatine has allways been the master of all sith?

  • @Raymond111full

    no =D for example darth plagueis was the master of palpatine (before he kill him xD)

  • The Emperor is evil and he FUCKING loves it!

  • Also at the end of the Original version the only Jedi's we see in apparitation form is Obi Wan , Annakin and Yoda .. whilst no sight of the rest of the jedi's including Obi Wan best buddle and mentor who was killed by Darth Maul

  • at the end of revenge of the sith he knew that Annakin had children yet for some strange bizarre reason no mention of this nor is there any mention of this in the original 3 .. Consider Annakin believed the children was dead for all those years .. yet The Emperor knew but never told him .. yet in the original 3 there was no mention as such that the emperor even knew ,,, period ... which leads me to say that the storyline doesn't gel

  • @colintraveller emperror - oh vader by the way I forgot to mention that you have a son. after obi-wan and yoda train him as a jedi i'm going to have him kill and replace you as my apprentice. just thought you might like to know. ok now back to your duties oppressing the galaxy.

  • lol is funny cause if vader hadnt got his injuries on mustafar then he would of been 2x more powerful than the emperor. lucas said him self.

  • all heil the emperor

  • 16 people are homos

  • Happy Birthday Iain McDiarmid now 67 years old, and still a great actor

  • If people would watch Star Wars from Episode I (The Phantom Menace) to Episode VI (Return of the Jedi), it would make sense. The galaxy transforming from republic to empire, and back to a republic again. Palpatine/Darth Sidious may have been evil and a lier, but he was a genius. The Clone Wars was all a setup, because he was using it to convert the galaxy into an empire.

  • Lucas caught a break by getting a not yet 40 year old Ian McDirmid to play the Emperor back then instead of getting an old man. Having the same actor play him 20 years later ws quite a coup.

  • fuck the empire !

  • Oh shit, i thought this was the jedi academy, not a neo-imperial convention. Oh well, guess i will enjoy the vid...................

  • My FAVORITE villian and character of star wars by far.

  • how does the emperor go to the bathroom?

    he must hold it in all the time, him going to the bathroom reminds me of a robot chicken skit

  • yoda got his green ass kicked

  • It is true that Darth Sidious is one of THE best villains ever created. It is interesting to note that in some parts he is a metaphor for one of history's greatest villains: Adolf Hitler

  • Ian mcdirmid made one of the greatest villans of all time such an amazing an actor.

  • THE REPUBLIC WILL BE REORGANIZE INTO THE FIRST GALACTIC EMPIRE!!!!! FOR A SAFE AND SECURE SOCIETY.......HAIL EMPEROR PALPATINE!!!!!

  • the only two sith who were stronger than palpatine were darth revan and darth bane

  • @alexeyevgenyevich Why would you think that? GL already stated that Sidious is the strongest of them all. What did Bane and Revan do that would make them more powerful?

  • Wow! Almost made me believe in the STAR WARS universe again. Very nicely told mythic tale of one of the darths. Nice editing.

  • Even though the prequels suck, Palpatine was the only character I liked.

  • This is pretty slick

  • Palpatine is THE bad guy

  • Nicely Done.

  • Palpatine rocks so much thay even the word "Rock" can't describe his rocknees ^~

  • Even when I was 10, RotJ made me cheer for the Emporer. His power and smarts seemed too much. I enjoyed when he shocked Luke into an attempt to the dark-side (always wins in the end if Lucas counts the novels and comics).

  • I love palpatine, he is the greatest! To bad Darth Vadar had to kill him, TRAITOR!

  • Excellent. This is one of the best if not THE best Palpatine tribute on YouTube.

  • I find it hilarious there is a "re-elect Barbara Boxer" campaign ad on this video. lol

  • there 's way to much Luke in this video

  • too bad, you americans have NTSC... so we have this black lines in uploaded videos. sob...

  • The video is completely useless and unrealistic after 4:43

  • @gman26722 agreed. After the fall of an empire...there would be a dark age

  • Comment removed

  • This was actually very well done. Palpatines a bad dude, and you captured his evil very well in this video! 

  • you gotta give Palpatine his credits but he's an ass wipe

  • why does Palps look older in AOTC than ROTS?

  • @Th3Pr0f3ssi0nal During the Separatist Crisis, he was supposed to appear prematurely aged and wizened by stress, while during the war he looked rejuvenated and healthy. It's all part of the dark side.

  • @Th3Pr0f3ssi0nal

    Because the makeup crew and Lucas fucked up.

  • @Th3Pr0f3ssi0nal Sith magic?

  • The greatest actor ever, and the best villain ever, no one can top him he's a sithlord and a puppet master, best villain ever!

  • This video is excellent!!!

  • Palpatine reminds me of an old pederast always trying to seduce young men...

  • Comment removed

  • The real power is in the Sith, a large Sidius My Lord.

  • Freaky

  • He's the coolest badass ever, he owns both sides of the war ;)

  • Surely Ian McDormid who played Palpatine had a double to play the fight scenes? If not, aside from especial effects, he must have been in good physical shape, very fast for a man of his age.

    I love Palpatine. He had cunning and patience to bring his plan to fruition. He hoodwinked the other senators, the Jedi council, his former master, even his allies were never sure were they stood.

  • @mrsotter19 They cut back and forth between Ian McDiarmid and a stunt double during that scene. Ian commented in an interview that when he first played the role he was in his 30's playing a much older man then when it came to the prequels he was trying to play a younger man. This posed problems when training for the action scenes so the fight coordinator showed him a couple of things then. Christopher Lee who played Count Dooku on the other hand had a background in fencing from previous movies.

  • @sighrd Hey, thank you for the information. I knew about Christopher Lee but somehow I missed the interview with McDiarmid.

  • @mrsotter19 No worries mate, glad I could help :-). If you own the Revenge of the Sith DVD, it is in the special features.

  • @sighrd Then buy the DVD I will ;-)

  • My favourite part of all the Saga is when Darth Sidious faces Yoda "... if so powerful you are, why leave?"

  • The reason I love Star Wars is because it's essentially a recasting of Roman history, specifically, the transition from Republic to Empire (e.g. Palpatine=Julius Caesar), but, moe generally, it warns and shows us how this process can occur. Plus, the whole Jedi vs. Sith thing's cool, too...

  • @VanSisean True. There is also a lot from Nazi Germany too. Adolph Hitler gained power in this very way, one step at a time. His eventual persecution of various alien races, his tight control of the media, the uniforms, the Storm Troopers, the Imperial war machine, his use of propaganda, all very reminiscent of Nazi Germany. In any case, to take the best story elements from Nazi Germany, Imperial Rome, Samurai Movies and Westerns and make such an epic story is a great feat of storytelling.

  • wow nice video dude

  • The empire should of won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I would just like to state as an avowed Neocon I find it offensive that ANYONE would liken The Bamster to Palpatine. He has nowhere near enough cachet or strategic foresight that Palpatine possessed. Bush, Cheney, Rummie, Wolfie, and all of the rest had cachet and strategic foresight in spades.

  • there must all ways be darth traya. galaxy needs its betrayels espsesialy in times to come.

  • Wow, these are usually crap. Nice work!

  • They should ad some new scenes to episode 4, 5 and 6 where you see how he suspends the senate, puts his guvernors in charge in also he big and ruthles the empire has become and how everyone is supposed to worship him

  • the legacy of darth bane finally unfolds. am i correct in saying that sidious passed on the title of dark lord of the sith to vader when he become the emperor?

  • 4:17 - 4:21

    Magnificent!

  • The Death of palpatine is unfair

  • kind of like obama rising up as the ranks as a savior and enslaving America to socialism... similar parallels....

  • @gamecock86

    You would see it that way if you are brainwashed to Fox news propaganda.

  • @gamecock86 STFU I am so fucking sick and tired that everything has to be about Obama. No matter what topic it is. Even if it's something like "Extrasolar Earth like planets found" that has absolutely nothing to do with him, someone has to bring Obama into it like it's on their mind every waking moment of their life.

  • GREAT VIDEO!!! I love it!

  • Friggin awesome!! I wanna do one now lol.

  • truly awesome video

    good work

  • very well edited 5 stars

  • Palpatine in the Prequels reminded me of the Mr McMahon character. a nice guy announcer named Vince to the Evil chairman Mr McMahon

  • hahaha very well said. he presented himself as a harmless old codger and then showed his insane evil twisted side... and he uses blunt servants to fight off his enemies.

  • I think its funny when peopel act like Mace Windu beat Palpatine. Palpatine wanted that to happen and he knew when Anakin walked into the room he'd make a bad last minute decision cause of the pressure. It was brilliant on Palpatines part.

  • @NoSlow78 it was brilliant but very risky. What is he didn't save him? guess that don't matter though, his risk paid off big time.

  • 4:54 ahhhhhhhhh

  • I LAUGHED SO HARD AT 2:19

    but cool video

  • the most kick ass person ever go palpatine

  • For the Empire!

  • And the death of the Rebel/Jedi Scum!!!

  • Palpatine aka Darth Sidious is one if not the most powerful sith lord of all, even compared to Plagueis himself. Don't be mistaked by his "human" age, if that would be so true Yoda would be nothing, still he is very powerful, but the great Emperor Palpatine surpasses him... All Hail The Empire.

  • @jcorbellini I totally agree and thanks for clearing that up

  • @jcorbellini Does that mean that Samuel L. Jackson is the most powerful Jedi since he kicked his ass?

  • @plasmathunderdx You actually believe that Windu defeated Sidious legimitately? LOL Funny story bro.

  • @jcorbellini Imagine how powerful Yoda could be if he turned to the Dark Side :P

  • @EleventhDarkness

    Yoda would be an awesome villain. So easy to underestimate and a completely frustrating opponent.

  • Awesome.

  • Flawless timing on this video!

    Favorited!

  • SgtPeterson1726 wow ur a dumbass. Why'd watch this video then?! The Empire Rules! All Hail Emperor Palpatine!

  • Great video. Great that obasz made use of the imperial march.

  • At least they fought in episode III, and Palpatine won...

  • But don't forget that Yoda was "crushed" by the deaths of the Jedi killed during the execution of Order 66 - he wasn't fully-focused on the battle at hand...

  • not much of a jedi then if he couldn't keep his emotions in check... also don't forget that sidious was the most powerful sith lord the galaxy had ever seen

  • Don't get me wrong, man, I recognise the might of (in)Sidious, but come on, the deaths of thousands of Jedi at least partially trained by you would be one hell of an emotion to keep in check, no?

  • Greatest Battle never to happen in the star wars movies is (original) puppet yoda versus ROTJ Palpatine. Lucas and his team were so creative for the originals, I bet they could have made it happen and work!!!

  • If you are referring to The Empire Strikes back...you're an idiot.

  • well then suck it bitch

  • you got a problem with that sergeant?

  • Awesome video, great editing 5/5. Why would anyone be cheering that the empire was defeated?

  • because it would go back to being a democracy, instead of an empire ruled by a sith lord?

  • an unstable democracy run by greedy corrupt senators, with virtually no military lol. i love the empire and palpatine

  • run by greedy corrupt senators like Padme and Organa? Not all of the senate was corrupt, and until Palpatine came along there wasnt much need for a military anyway, he was behind everything with the trade federation and the whole separtist movement.

  • and the reason he did that was to prove just how corrupt the republic really was :) amidala and organa are traitors to the empire and deserved what they got

  • traitors to the empire? Yeah they betrayed a power hungry tyrant named palpatine whos only ambition was the destruction of the jedi and the controlling of the galaxy.

  • jedi.. who were the keepers of the corrupt old republic and enemies of the sith

  • well you do have to take into account that it wasn't corrupt until palpatine got into politics. All that stuff about the senate being under the influence of the dark lord of the sith might have had something to do with it. but i totally agree with you on the military lol.

  • Wow, looks like we have finally found someone who knows how to edit Star Wars right! Outstanding job combining scenes from the dismal prequel films along with the originals and have such a pleasant result. VERY impressed!

  • Very well done! Palps is awesome, in both Revenge and Return he shines.... and the thing is in Return he was 35yrs old, so when the "prequels" started to come out, Ian McDiarmid fit the part once again!

    Also glad to see something like this with the John Williams score and not something like Metallica/Final Fantasy etc...

    great job!!

  • Palpatine is my favorite character in ST universe

  • No offense to anyone, I believe in God too, but I can't help thinking...

    Pope Benedict! What are YOU doing in a Star Wars film?

  • LOL PURE AWESOME!

  • you're so right! both look like they could benefit from a power nap.

  • Emperor Palpatine..... the greatest cinematic villain of history.... period.

  • @ALEXplus3

    Thumbs up for that !! What a character.

  • Luke was lucky  because Darth Vader was his father,imagine a different story

  • ahhh, but to quote an aging Obi-Wan Kenobi, " In my experiences, there's no such thing as luck."

  • amazing

  • If I ever become a dictator, Palpatine will always be my # 1 inspiration : ).

  • How old was Palpatine in Episode 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and in 6?

  • hes immortal, LOL

  • try my star wars music video ,part 1 and 2 from my account!

  • according to my opinion is palpatine in the sixth episode best of all.

  • The Emperor Palpatine in Episode VI was really creepy.

  • Biasbastard how would Palpatine kno exactly when Anakin would get there or if he was coming, plus it wouldnt take long for a sith lord to throw a couple dead bodys out a window.

  • Palpatine is very strong in the Force and has gifts of foresight and mind reading. He is also very clever. He could sense Anakin's feelings and used them to discern what was causing him distress, to manipulate the young jedi into believing him the key to Padme's life. He knew that Anakin was confused and unstable and that he would likely do something irrational. He predicted Anakin's arrival and, as soon as he sensed the young jedi's presence was close enough, threw the fight and set the stage.

  • When Palpatine fought Windu he wasn't holding back cuz there rlly wasnt any reason, plus the other Jedi that Palpatine killed were just Knights, Windu was a Master =)

  • Of course he had a reason to hold back. What would it have looked like to Anakin if he walked in and found all four masters dead and Palpatine standing over them unscratched? Palpatine needed Windu alive in order to convince Anakin that the Jedi were treacherous. He set himself up in a "helpless" position in order to play the victim and take advantage of Anakin's noble nature. Lo and behold, it worked.

  • all of the other jedi there were masters.

  • Actually the Jedi who Palpatine killed WERE masters, and members of the Jedi council. Look it up

  • ALL JEDI IN THAT ROOM WAS MASTERS!!! learn something about starwars please

  • What a horrible man!

  • LISTEN TO MY VERSION OF THE MUSIC AT 1:50 and Darth Vader's theme ON THE PIANO!!!

  • mace kicks ass

  • whats the song at 1:25 i've been lookin for it for quite a while

    thanks

  • Very, very well made. Fantastic video!

  • Best character!

  • This is an awesome video and Palpatine is my all time SW favorite.

  • i like vader better

  • Pure Brilliance, however the greatest Sith battle of all time, would be Revan, Nihilus, Traya and Sidious.

  • Nah, they were powerful and all, but by no means did they accomplish as much as Palpatine. No other sith was nearly as powerful as he was.

  • He couldnt even take out yoda.

  • i belive he could becouse yoda escaped from him in the end of episode 3

  • no it was a good fight plus it was somone who learned for about a thousand years vs somone who learned the force for millions

  • A black guy kicked his ass in episode3.

  • The only reason Mace Windu survived as long as he did, is because the chancellor could sense tha Anakin was getting near, so he made himself appear weak in order to manipulate Anakin further.

  • Not true. Windu was the only character who could beat Sidius.

  • Come on. It was so obvious. He downs 4 jedis within 6 seconds but he can't down windu?...It's obvious he's holding back,beegee45.

  • Samuel L Jackson does not go down without a fight! Plus I believe I seen a special on the making of revenge of the sith and Samuel wanted to go down kicking ass...think about...Samuel L Mother Trucking Jackson! he is easily worth 4 jedi any day.

  • rofl, fuck the chancellor, he's weak... LOL!

  • What do you think about Palpatine?

  • He obviously didnt have any wisdom if he couldnt forsee his own death. You are even a bigger dumbass than he was.
