Probably because his hands are covered in pus from popping zits all day.

The Quebec Palpatine is Yves Corbeil, who's been hosting our version of Wheel of Fortune for decades and has something like 250+ voice-over roles in various Quebec dubs.

He's also Palpatine's voice in our version of the Clone Wars cartoon.

Edit: Sheev Corbeil.

Ah ha, excellent.

Apparently.

This whole "gray Jedi" thing is just an invention of fans who either A) don't understand that normal Jedi philosophy already embraces the idea of balance between light and dark, or B) think that the Star Wars films should suicidally embrace the idea that good and evil don't even exist and should from this point forward be a series about the exploits of plucky, nihilistic Sith Lords.

They actually have a good reason for that. The inquisitors using spinning sabers were compensating for their lack of skill and formal training.

So if they can make an unskilled fighter good then wouldn't they make a skilled fighter even better?

Nah, because it's a goofy gimmick as opposed to a practical weapon.

Also, Darth Vader wears a cape, so obviously he doesn't need helicopter blades to fly.

You know what else is good? Pod racing. Or racing in general. Get ready to see some because a blurry set photo and story rumors suggest Young Han Solo is going to be some sort of Tattooine-ian drag racer.

I guess it's not Canon or whatever but the pod racing game had a really good variety of tracks on various planets, I always liked that one with the volcanic tropical jungle vibe

I can imagine them making a movie about the rebellion recruiting a pod racer for some secret high-stakes mission. You could include a few race scenes and a big race / battle finale.

I realise that this is basically the same "Fast & Furious in Space" idea people have pitched forever just attacked from the different end and I don't care.

Junior Imperial Agent Han Solo is tasked to infiltrate a smuggling ring that have supplied rebels with audiovisual device parts, disguised as a racing tournament. Being an ace pilot makes him rise quickly in the rankings, attracting the attention of the top racer and smuggler leader Chewbacca. Han is close to busting the whole thing wide open, but his sympathies change he when falls in love with Maya, Chewbacca's sister (real name Mayabacca).

Maya is the role played by Emilia Clarke. ILM technicians developed a new technique where they attach sensors to her generous eyebrows and map their movements. Using advanced calculations, they extrapolate the movement of face hair and it allows them to create CG-enhanced wookie face with hairs that move realistically.

My young son is sick so we've been watching all the Star Wars.

Aotc and rots become more and more enjoyable every time I watch them now. It's great. Aotc in particular has tons of nuance and interesting ideas. I esp now love also the part in rots when padme goes "uh maybe we are the bad guys??!"
