Warning: Simon Kinberg says he's writing a Star Wars movie.

I do rather like the interpretation that Sheev genuinely was overwhelmed by Mace, but only because Mace was himself clearly channeling the dark side.

The novelization outright states both of these, I think. Mace and his VAAPAD :ninja:



Unsurprising. Kinberg's got some pretty deep ties at LFL (he co-produces Rebels) and is at least partly-responsible for Josh Trank getting kicked off the rumored Fett spin-off.

One reason why I don’t wholeheartedly agree with the reading that Palpatine has everything 100% under control during the arrest attempt is that we see that he’s actually not close to omniscient or all-powerful. Particularly in TPM, he gets constantly surprised by the actions of the heroes. His true superpower is his ability to just roll with whatever happens and turn it to his advantage. So he very well might have underestimated Windu’s power. It didn’t matter, though, because he was able to use a loss in the fight to his own ends regardless.

holy poo poo you guys, the whole point of that scene is basically that mace's fall to the dark side condemns both himself and anikin

like mace walks in with the intent to arrest sheeve, sheeve says "lol no i'm too powerful" which mace doesn't seem to believe. they fight and mace gets the upper hand and suddenly he starts saying the exact poo poo sheeve was saying to him infront of anakin

I think they were trying to go for something like it was still fresh and so it hadn't wrinkled and flaked up like it looks in RotJ, but it just comes out looking like a bad halloween costume.

The only thing he couldn't foresee was that Windu would cast aside his lightsaber, refusing to strike him down.

Yeah, even the most masterful Sheev-scheme probably didn't involve him having to melt his own face. Sheev is losing while Anakin has chosen the Jedi, then when Anakin's faith in the Jedi falters and he comes back, Sheev's back in the game.

The face change is visual language for the dropping of the facade and his transformation into the emperor. It's not literal. It didn't actually happen according to some biological rules.

Left the official posters of the next Star Wars (Disney), right the compiles for which I made the creation in 2015 for Sony Music France / Legacy Recordings France following the brief of the project leader Romain 'Rpiz' Pizon.
I am flattered that the quality of my work is recognized, but it is still pure and simple forgery, I have not been asked for my permission, I wish to be credited and paid for this work I have done for Sony!

He's hamming it up because his plans have finally succeeded. Anakin's intervention is the final tipping point in the rise of the Empire. He has unlimited [executive, judicial, and legislative] power.

He's saying to Anakin "Look how much power the Dark Side brings!" in an aim to create a big climatic display of might so as to erase any lingering doubts in Anakins mind.

Yep.

It can be any of these, and maybe all of them.

A victory cry, a exultative scream, a demonstration to Anakin, a gloating taunt/mockery to Mace... It's Palpatine basically shouting that he's got everything he's ever desired and he's relishing in being able to show it off. It's his "I'm the King of the World!" moment.

I mean, he's been playing fourth-dimension chess right under the noses of the Jedi Order, and they found out only when it was too late to do anything about it (and they shot themselves in the foot, even!) I'd be having a good crazy lightning-blasting gloat about it, too.

And the "retro" paper underneath? And as Entropy said - the exact same colour scheme? Too much cribbed for it to be an accident.

Three of them are similar in colour while the other one obviously isn't. There's a whole bunch of these CDs so it doesn't seem that unlikely you could find a vague match for 3/4 colours.
