Vader: I don't want death Star
Sidius: the destruction of death Star is all your fault!

Eeyup.
Yeah Palpatine is a terribly written villain, he's just too cartoonish. I mean you simply can't get that powerful when you're that incompetent, Force or no. He actively encourages corruption in his own military so that every one will be too busy scheming against each other to challenge him, while somehow completely missing the fact that this makes him directly responsible for having incompetent troops. Palpatine was a politician, not a leader. He knew how to misdirect, but not how to lead.
@@adamb89 He structured the empire based on Sith Doctrine.
I cant help think of Robot Chickens version of Palpatine’s response when Vader called him with the bad news. “What’s an aluminum falcon?!?”
"WHO'S THEY??!!"
@@benjaminnorris5540"That thing wasn't fully paid off yet! D-do you have any idea what this is gonna do to my credit..?"
Guys are right. Robot Chicken did it best.
@@DENPTrains [phone rings] Hang on, I've got another call. [switches line] What?! I'm very busy right now! Oh. Oh, well, where're they going? Alright, just get me a Turkey Club. Coleslaw, I guess. I'm not even gonna eat it. What're you getting? [Amedda pats his knee as Aloo checks his watch] No, see, I always order the wrong thing. No, no, no, I'll just stick with that. Okay, bye-wait, what? A Cherry Coke. Thanks.
@@Jeremiah_Rivers76 ...Sorry about that...
What..?!
Oh! OH! Just rebuild it?!
Palpatine yelling at Vader for a mistake Palpatine himself made is the most accurate relationship between a boss and employee
Sidious' reaction? obviously, it was this:
"What do you mean they blew up the Death Star?! Aw, {censored--think of the children!} ...Who's THEY!? ...What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?!"
Hahahaha😅
Okay, who’s left?…Are you $hiting me! Well, where are you?!
Ah, a fellow man of culture I see
Ah yesa palpy yousa manipulating me. Mehaha ha ha ha
@@LoveShayslocowrong, he manipulated Palpatine!
all hail Dath Jar Jar!
"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought my Dark Lord of the Sith could protect a small thermal exhaust port that's only 2 meters wide. THAT THING WASN'T EVEN FULLY PAID OFF YET!!"
darn aluminum falcon…
"Do you have any idea what this is gonna do to my credit?"
@@justinpullen1097 "you must smell like feet wrapped in leathery burnt bacon!"
to be fair to the dude who build it, a 2m echaust port for a moon size battlestation is quite an achievement
@@justinpullen1097 "Oh, oh, just rebuild it?! Oh that's real fucking original! And who's gonna give me a loan jackhole, you? You got an A.T.M on that torso Lite Brite?"
Fun fact. The actor who played General Tagge was my old school friends dad Don Henderson. He told me he remembers drawing on the Star Wars script after his dad was finished with it. Nice to see Dons face in graphic novels.
Vader knew the Death Star was folly. Deep down he was glad that the faith and arrogance Tarkin and Sidious had in the DS had, well, blown up in their faces. Vader was right when told the Death Star commanders that the ability to destroy a planet was insignifcant next to the power of the Force. That statement really echoed Roan Shryne's dying words. That Sidious and Vader can not kill the Force.
Sidious and Vader weren’t trying to kill The Force.
@@trevturp6891 I didn't say they were. I was paraphrasing Shryne saying it doesn't matter if they kill all the Jedi because they can't kill the Force, ie stop it or its will.
@@trevturp6891 No, but there WAS one Sith who wanted to because he thought that by destroying the Force, he would kill all life. (he was an omnicidal maniac) When he found out that the galaxy didn't actually NEED the Force in order to survive, he didn't take it well.
@@LordSiravant wait! What? I always thought that the Force was literally the life force of all living things
So we're abbreviating the 'death star' to 'DS'?

“Go for Papa Palpatine”
You have a collect call from: *metallic breathing* “Darth Vader”
“Hold on guys, I gotta take this.”
"What's an aluminum falcon?!"
@@Archdornan9001 “You got an ATM in the lite brite on your chest?”
"Ugh, you must smell like feet wrapped in leathery burnt bacon."
Papa Palpatine. Is that going to be the next lead singer for Ghost?
if i remember right this conversation ended with: I love you too
I honestly thought Palpatine’s reaction in the Robot Chicken special was more believable 🤣
“What the hells an aluminum falcon!?”
Felt the same 🤣🤣🤣
“How am I gonna pay for that? You got on ATM on your torso, LiteBrite??”
The Robot Chicken version is canon for me
Thanks 🙏 for reminding me about that. After this I need to see it again 🥳😆
Palpatine mistake was not helping vader reach his full potential and for not teaching him anything he legit teached vader nothing
No Palpatine mistake was the death stars.
@@Only1199 Thrawn and Tagge had the best Idea in creating more Star Destroyers and Supe Star Destroyers instead.
@@Only1199 the Galaxy gun was better
teaching Vader nearly not that much of his knowage in the dark side while let him hunt Jedis and traitors to the empire is the only reason Sidious was still alive.
Sidious planned on being the last sith, alive eternally, no need to teach vader anything that might endanger that.
Palpatine absolutely failed to learn from his mistake! The first Death Star got destroyed and he immediately started building another one. He commends Tage for arguing against the "arrogance" of it, yet Palpatine then decides "do it again but bigger."
Thats kinda the thing though, the second Death Star was already under construction whe first was destroyed
And thanks to Disney they made him make the same mistake a third time!
Lol I agree. The first Death Star was secure enough such that only one of the galaxy’s most force sensitive man could destroy it. So what does he do, even knowing that same man is still alive? He makes a second one that doesn’t even need a force sensitive to take it down. It can be destroyed by any regular pilot.
Plus the irony of “this guy who criticized the Death Star was right to criticize the Death Star. So I will be promoting him for criticizing the Death Star, but only until my new more poorly secured Death Star is completed
Nope, he didn't learn, he should have built a bigger more agile fleet. But everything Sidious did was over the top, look at the size of the Star Destroyers and Super Star Destroyers. Compared to the fighters and the smaller capital ships those things wallowed.
The first Death Star "Didn't need" aForce sensitive to take it down.....not technically, but Force sensitive's just have better odds of being the one's to destroy it...or any similar weapon built to cause world destruction.@@pIayingwithmahwii
Palpatine's response makes sense. Disney's new canon has the Empire is frightfully inept with very few moffs actually qualified for their positions. This is deliberate. If everyone was too busy fighting each other then they'd be too busy to challenge him. The only way to maintain control was with the Death Star.
It's also typical of real life dictatorships.
Loyalty, not skill, results in power and authority. The biggest threat to a dictator is a disloyal and skilful general.
Robot Chicken's depiction of Sidious's reaction will always be cannon in my mind.
"... ... I love you too."
Came to comments looking for a Robot Chicken mention
😮@@Sephiroth144
"Who's 'They'?! The Hell's an Aluminum Falcon?!"
(At Palpatine’s office in Coruscant)
Palpatine: Ha ha ha ha, so I threw the senate at him. The whole senate! True story.
Mas Amedda: Oh my god, that is so funny!
Sim Aloo: You made it [Milk from the carton in his hand] come out of my nose!
Palpatine: [His phone rings] Go for Papa Palpatine.
Operator: You have a collect call from - [Vader's voice and breathing] Darth Vader.
Palpatine: [sighs] Oh, I-I gotta take this, hold on. Vader! How's my favorite Sith? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, just slow down. Huh? What do you mean 'they blew up the Death Star?' (F***!) Oh! [slams fists on his desk] (F***, f***, f***)...Who's 'they'?! What the hell is an 'Aluminum Falcon'?! [sighs] Okay, okay, s-so who's left? Are you (shittin') me? Well where are you? Wait a sec, you've been flying around for two weeks trying to get a signal? Oh, you must smell like...feet wrapped in...leathery...burnt...bacon. [Holds phone away from ear as Vader obviously yells at him, Amedda looks shocked] Oh, oh, oh, I'm sorry I thought my Dark Lord of the Sith could protect a small thermal exhaust port that's only two meters wide. That thing wasn't even fully paid off yet! Do you have - do you have any idea what this is gonna do to my credit? [phone rings] Ah, hang on, I've got another call. [switches line] What?!

[Amedda pats his knee as Aloo checks his watch] No, see, I-I always order the wrong thing. No, no, no, I'll just stick with that. Okay, bye - wait, what? Oh, a Cherry Coke. Thanks. [switches back to Vader] Sorry about that. [sighs]...what? Oh-oh, 'just rebuild it'? Oh, yeah, real f***ing original. And who's gonna give me a loan, jackhole, you? Y-you got an ATM on that torso Lite-Brite? Now get your seven foot two asthmatic ass back here or I'm gonna tell everyone what a whiny bitch you were about 'Padamamay' or 'Panda Bear' or whatever the hell her name is!...Oh geez, he's crying! Heh, heh, heh...[Aloo and Amedda silently laugh]...Hey, hey, hey, hey, c'mon. C'mon, don't do that. Just, just, look, ah, y'know, I'm dealing with a lot of crap right now. Eh, Death Star blown up by a bunch of f***ing teenagers, y'know? I didn't mean to snap. [Motions to guests a gesture of 'jacking off', showing Vader's gullibility] Oh, oh, j-just get back here. Okay, okay, bye. I-yeh-I...I love you too.
(Static)
Palpatine was just a smug dictator, most of his early success was mostly blind luck but he played it as if he was some master strategist, he was good no doubt, but not a super genius as portrayed
Most of the successes came From Plaegus, Palpatine's master.
Luke said it best to his face "your overconfidence is your weakness"
Kinda ironic how Vader voiced his concern against the Death Star, along with Thrawn and other prominent advisors. But as soon as it’s blown up, it’s vaders fault and not the idea itself.
Palpatine’s hubris blinds him. What’s the point of this super weapon if it’s vulnerable in the first place. Should of realized that and seen the error in the idea instead of assigning blame.
Bet that 10 000+ star destroyers seem like a great idea in retrospect. But nope Death Star II 😂
The difference between palpatine in the books, and later the Emperor. Palpatine learned from his mistakes, the emperor couldn’t believe he made any.
As a certain starfleet admiral once said, "Sheer, f#%$ing hubris."
Vader: "does vader have to choke a B!&@h?"
Admiral Clancy: "vader, stfu."
Vader: "okkkaaayyy..."
"Your overconfidence is your weakness."
He had like a full 20 seconds where he could have shot Luke down, but instead of killing he the guy he instead decided to monologue about how "the force is strong with this one" and all that. This galaxy is full of idiots!
*Should have... what is the of doing there?
The Death Star took 20 years to build, but less than 20 mins to destroy 😂😂😂
Rome wasn't built in a day, but it burnt in one night.
"Look at that, I blew up the death star in like what, ten seconds? Eleven tops."
"What the hell is an aluminum falcon?!"
go for papa palpatine
Vader:
“You mean, you failed to foresee this? We do not have a Senate to hold order, because you dissolved it. We do not have a weapon to force order, because you saw fit to put all of our eggs in one big basket. You have failed! Pray that you do not fail me again.”
Sidious relying on the death star is weird because he always preferred the dark side as opposed to technology, as in his mockery of the light Saber.
Not to mention, the Death Star is kind of like a really big light saber, isn't it? lol
For individual gain...he had no problem (as opposed to Vader) using Tech for overall power consumption and conquering...being more like Tarkin on that issue.
Well, I think his thing vs Lighsabres was more about mocking the Jedi’s reliance on them as opposed to a tech vs Force thing, also the (criminally) Legends novel Plagis adds the justification that he was worried about trying to use The Force to cow the galaxy into submission would lead to The Force itself rebelling against him
@@MLaak86the actual reason is most of Sidious's character and the Sith ideology was fleshed out long after the OT came out, and 90s and 2000s CGI made the Force cooler to depict
Animal farm philosophy at its finest
When I saw the second Deathstar in Return of the Jedi for the first time, I knew what was going to happen to it. The thing was not complete. I mean who builds a Deathstar with its core wide open to be attacked? Now it's floating in space above Endor in a trillion pieces.
That was the point though, to lure the rebels into a hopeless fight. It had a shield
@@FourthFloorParkour Right
@@FourthFloorParkourit had a shield until han solos group took the base on Sensor, once that was down they could attack and went in. Palpatines mistake was overconfidence as usual.
Your credit score must be 3. How are you gonna pay back those loans???
We actually do have footage of the moment Palpatine got a collect call from Darth Vader informing him that the rebels destroyed the Death Star.
And only moments later Palpatine ordered a turkey club and cherry coke for lunch.
darn aluminum falcon!
We've already seen his reaction, Robot Chicken showed us!!
"What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?! .... I love you too"
The death star was a waste of time and credits. The sun crusher was a much better weapon.
Palpatine shocked Vader because he was going to tell everyone what a whiny b**ch he was when Panda Bear died
Oh yeah because you wouldn't be distraught if your loved one died, so tough lol.
or was it pad thai
OOOH! So this is why Sidious walked with his hands up and not to his side. Sidious is on the ready to use Sith lightening to barbecue any would be assassination attempts.
😂😂😂
I Think of Sidious after the Destruction of the Death Star the Same Way I Thought of Him Before, He's Putrid Garbage! End of Story!
Since when do narcissists ever accept responsibility for anything?
Of course, it's clear that he failed to learn because the second one was destroyed as well.
In addition, Palpatine by nature could not learn anything that was contrary to his own pride and flawed view of his own self worth. Pride always comes before a fall.
The second death star was more of a well, trap for the rebels.
Well I'm willing to bet that Vader didn't expect Papa Palpatine to swear that much. Or threaten to tell everyone what a whiny bitch he was about Pada Mommy or Panda Bear or whatever the hell her name was. 🐔
Well, Vader did get his 7'2" asthmatic ass back to Palpatine pretty sharpish...!
I’m not a new Acolyte when it comes to these archives; however I am loving these daily lessons
The title of this video makes me think about the Robot Chicken sketch where Sidious finds out the Death Star blew up.
“Who’s *THEY?!*What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?!”
Here in the link below shows Sheev Palpatine's reaction to the news about the Death Star's destruction at the hands of the Rebel Alliance:
The Emperor's Phone Call | Robot Chicken | Adult Swim
ua-cam.com/video/3F1d3QWsyk0/v-deo.html
Palpatine: “knew i should have invested in a few raider corvettes…..”
Can you do a vid about all the Jedi temples throughout the galaxy?
Now that would be awesome
It would be cool to play a game as Vader overcoming sidious's bitch moves
Palpatine for all his studies of the Sith that came before him, was a poor student of being a ruler. He lacked patience and was caught up in rash decisions that drove fracturing of his rule. Out of all the Sith that came before him, his reign was but a blink in the time scale of the galaxy.
The Galaxy rose to defeat Palpatine while recognizing that the Republic was broken, to seek the next alternative. Anakin and Vader were equally useless in reading the room, let alone the Galaxy. Had Vader constructed a better suit (in waiting) and disappeared, even as far as cutting himself off from the Force, he'd have stood a better chance of overthrowing Palpatine and fixing the failures. The two Sith Lords wouldn't have lasted 50 years of rule, let alone 100 or 1000.
Question. Why didn't Palpatine build a Death Star from the manufactured red crystals the Sith used for their saber, over the Kyber version?
The Rule of Two reached its epitome with Palpatine, a creature created to overthrow the Republic, destroy the Jedi and restore the Sith to power, which he did successfully. The weakness of the Rule of Two is that it failed to produce a Sith which could maintain an empire. The purpose of the Rule of Two was to create a destroyer, not a leader.
Also, the weakness of the Sith has always been their hubris. Their lust for power brings them closer to the dark side of the force, which leads them to greater power. It's a loop that feeds on itself and eventually destroys the individual and all they created when they become convinced of their invincibility and grow careless. It's the same hubris that's brought down many a tyrant throughout history.
When it comes to Palpatine’s reaction to the Death Star’s destruction, I’ll always remember Robot Chicken.
"Dammit Vader i didn't put any insurance on the Death Star"
"Do you have any idea what this is going to do to my credit?"
"Damn it! I had but one payment on The Death Star lease!", this probably what he said. 😂
"Do you have any idea what this is going to do to my credit?"
I prefer the reaction he had in Robot Chicken lol
A huge reason for the destruction of the Death Star, was Palpatine's own flawed understanding of how balance within the Force worked. The Force does not play favorites with either the Light or Dark sides, but often tries to keep a semblance of balance to keep an even playing field.
The Jedi may had been nearly destroyed at the end of the Clone Wars, but much of what they fought for and influenced was still around within the galaxy. One being the democratically elected Senate. Granted it had lost much of it's functions within the Empire overtime, but it still acted as some checks and balances towards Palpatine's authority. Him abolishing the Senate, along with having the Death Star complete and operational, gave the Dark side far too much power than the Light.
Whenever one side becomes too powerful over the other, the Force either has one of two things occur to even the situation, if not both occurring. Either the weaker side rises to being the same or nearly the same strength and influence as their opposite, or the side that had became stronger suddenly receives a massive loss to then match the weaker opposite. This happened with the Death Star granting the Dark side too much power, thus to create a semblance of balance again, the Force acted to see it destroyed through the actions of the Rebel alliance and the remnants of the Jedi.
I can't entirely agree with how that is flavoured. I understand that the Dark Side has always been cancer to ravage the force and that Force Senstives is usually both an immune response and an abnormality to how things should go. People who study how it works ultimately either work according to how life goes or against it and ultimately become a corrupt influence that exists despite the harm they inflict on the galaxy. The dark side almost always comes from the actions of sentient beings capable of immense cruelty; animals kill and feed, but ruthless people build concentration camps and death weapons, the after-effects of which can be witnessed decades after its inception. The force wasn't responsible for creating the Empire, but the Emperor and the ambitious men under him did.
It might be just the difference in perspective, but I don't consider the dark side and the force two separate sides of the same coin, but that the former tarnishes the latter.
Palpatine… all that work down the drain.
I find it odd just how much faith Sidious had in both Death Stars as because of Tarkin's actions they became such a monumental detriment to the Empire, whatever destructive benefits it had to bring to the table it was outweighed by the Rebel's knowledge in how to destroy it, and the amount of people willing to join for self preservation.
"What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?!!"
Vader knew he'd be used as a scapegoat for this disaster.
But the fact that Palpetine didnt physically torture him with some good old electricity ⚡️ is what undoubtedly surprised him.
Also had the Empire succeeded in destroying Yavin 4, Tarkin would have been arrested, put on public trial and sentenced to death for the whole galaxy to see similar to the scene in Wolfenstein 2.
Palpatine did NOT want Alderaan destroyed.
I'm pretty sure Tarkin and Sids had pre-discussed the situation and Tarkin had Sid's approval ahead of time just IN CASE the Alderraan destruction plan was used. Tarkin is not foolish enough to BLATANTLY contradict his Master. Palpatine simply did not inform Vader that he and Tarkin had discussed the matter as Palpatine love to pit Vader against others and was constantly testing him.
Glad all those 10s of thousands of star destroyers were forgotten about. God forbid they use those to enforce anything.
they tried and lost badly against the new and larger combined fleet of rebels and supporters
cant be everywhere at once, and once a tactic is desiged on how to beat them and successfully abused, theres no hope for them@@bostonrailfan2427
Thrawn told the bastard!😂😂blame vader when he agreed with thrawn too, to fund the Tie defenders. Thrawn really is the most dangerous and most badass character.. the only one on the same level of Palpatine. Not evil, definitely not evil. Unfortunately, he miscalculated the power and resolve of the Empire vs. The rebellion.. understandably as he was a foreignor
He wasn't a character then how could he tell him anything.
Palps: Tagge was right. Our economy is in shambles.
Also Palps: Let's build a bigger one.
Wow wow wow wow - slow down
Huh? He? What do you mean they blew up the Death Star?!
********
Who are they?!

Robot Chicken’s version was the best
“I thought my dark lord of the sith could protect a thermal exhaust port that was only 2 meters wide.”
- Robot Chicken
"They blew up the Death Star? Who is 'they'?"
"WHAT THE HELL'S AN 'ALUMINUM FALCON'!?!?"
An angry/questioning emperor scene at the start of Empire might have fitted well. In New Hope, he choke held but released a seriously confrontational officer but in Empire, even admirals and leaders who were doing their best were killed off. I always thought that there was a sharp transition of character in Vader in new hope to Vader in empire.
I say that this shows that Sidious was a brilliant tactition. And symbolically; I say that this was also proof that no matter what happens, evil will ultimately fail and everything that is good will always win.
Only in fiction. Evil wins all the time in reality.

"Who's they?" 🤣
Robot Chicken already showed us his reaction.
One of few videos I've seen where the name of Vader's Super Star Destroyer is pronounced correctly. It's "Executor", people, from the term "Execute!"
Wrong
It does beg the question Vader and Thrawn are proven right , he builds a second. And then in the ultimate dum arse move the first order build a third
I'd personally like to hear a story on HK-47 😉 if possible ...
So I threw the Senate at him. The whole Senate. True story
The Adult Swim ' Papa Palpatine' reaction is the in canon reaction really.
Somehow, Palpatine didn't take snub fighters into consideration.
To be fair to Palpatine none of the Imperials were truly aware of the Death Star's one, rather innocuous weakness. If it wasnt for the Rebellion getting the schematics of the Death Star they wouldn't have known where to hit it. Thats why it was assumed that any threat to the Death Star would be a fleet larger than the whole Imperial Navy
@@DokturProfesur I know, I was being sarcastic somewhat, don't mind me. Riffing off of Episodes 4 and 9 rather unsuccessfully, I guess!
Whoa whoa whoa, just- just slow down... What do you mean they blew up the Death Star?!? Fuck, oh fuck fuck! WHO'S THEY?!?
6:00 Palpatines opinion of Vader in this is that of a fool. Vader was a Jedi when the plans for this mechanical terror were realized and put into production by Palpatine himself. Vader had no insight or input into the construction of that thing. Correct me but he didn't think it was a great idea either. He should have blamed someone else. Oh i dunno ERSO?! Jesus. Vader did put himself on the line to shut the attack down. Its not like he just left which would be shameful in my eyes. I don't see the reason for him to be at fault.
9:00 Oh never mind. LOL Ok yea i guess i get it. He has to prove he is a BIG MAN! Let me torcher you over the years to my satisfaction first. Hahaha i mean it is fitting with evil.
After the Battle of Hoth, the Rebel Alliance realized that if they create a base on any planet, a new Deathstar will finish them off, so they decided to live their life on the fleet. Sidious quickly realized that in such a case, a Deathstar is an inefficient weapon, also the Imperial Fleet - both can leave survivors behind. Using them TOGETHER is a death trap for the Rebels if he is able to control all the crew's brain - and the Battle of Endor was a tragedy for the Rebels while the Emperor was alive. After Vader had thrown him down, the Imperial Fleet lost the Executor, two other star destroyers and without the Emperor's mind coordination, they fought like rookies, so Pellaeon ordered a jump to the outer ring but only some star destroyers followed him. The remaining ones has been destroyed or occupied by the Rebels.
As a Sith apprentice, when in doubt, give in to hatred and anger and destroy.
Considering how much was invested in the Death Star, it's surprising how lightly defended it was. It should have had a permanent fleet of escort ships. Hell, the station could have even served as a mobile dry dock for the fleet.
It had an entire fleet, with hundreds of larger ships and 10,000 tie fighters
FYI, you pronounced Executor wrong. It's pronounced like Executive, not like Executioner
THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS
I wonder to what extent Darth Vader's demotion + Palpatine's displeasure was part of Vader's redemption arc and pulling back from the Dark Side that Luke completed in Return of the Jedi? 🤔
What people dont know is, that after finding out about the death stars destruction, Palpatine had a Turkey club with coleslaw, but probably didnt eat it...
He always orders the wrong thing.
A single Death Star actually shouldn't have been much of a resource sink for a galactic empire. The problem with these space operas is that the writers never seem to be able to grasp the full scale of space, and the resources contained in it. When you consider that any given solar system should have been able to pool enough resources to build at least one moon-sized battle station like a Death Star, and that there are billions of stars in a galaxy, an empire spanning an entire galaxy should have been capable of building literally billions of Death Stars. Perhaps a few hundred million Death Stars is more reasonable considering that they may not want to blow their entire defense budget on a single type of weapon (still need to have armies and fleets). But still, the loss of a single Death Star should not have been a significant blow to any galactic empire that actually understood the scale of the resources at their disposal.
I prefer the robot chicken depiction.
What the hell is an aluminum falcon?????
"Ya got a lotta eggs in that there basket, sir."
I'm sure I saw what happened on Robot Chicken? 🤔

The Death Star Architect Speaks Out
ua-cam.com/video/agcRwGDKulw/v-deo.html
Honestly palpatine boner for his deathstar was the downfall of the empire
He should not let Tarkin control the Death Star.
And should not allow the destruction of Alderaan in the first place.
Palpatine was at fault for what happened to the Death Star. Him and no one else.
Good thing legends exist..... his plan was different... good thing the shit disney made is NOT what a true SW fan should know and read... Read Dark empire, THAT is what TRULY happened and was planed!
Follow up with Crimson Empire.
The Skywalkers were not needed for the rise and fall of Palpatine's empire.
Star Killer Base was far more efficient than any Death Star.
Maybe I was scrolling fast but I had to look twice at what he sitting on in the thumbnail 😂
Thrawn would have been an amazing Emperor
Stuff like this makes me wonder if Sidius was actually a Master Tactician who was playing games on top of games or if he was just a Master Bullshiter who was just fast enough at thinking on the fly to make all his F- Ups look like they were on purpose.
It made a degree of sense. It was a weapon designed to spread terror, and terror made the darkside stronger. It would've been a very different galaxy if everyone knew what the Death Star was and that, periodically, it would just show up above any planet considering rebellion and making people lose sleep for days at a time, wondering when that thing would *ever* fire. That despair would surely be delicious.
It was never meant to be a practical weapon, but rather a luxury for the victor to enjoy. Far as Sidious was concerned he had won.
Palpatine was arrogant as usual
Lol just watch robot 🤖 chicken 🐔 lol
Go for Palpatine Vader hows my favorite sith 😂😂
I will forever think of the Robot Chicken segment.
Robot Chicken did a pretty good skit on what his reaction was
Tagge rhymes with cage, not with bag.
Sidious main was mistake was in not realising that the Death Star was a massive waste of manpower and resources, that had been easily destroyed and could have been better poured into other projects. Plus by building another one, he was just repeating the same mistake that would lead to his own destruction at empire.
Sounds like to me Palps just said what he thought Vader wanted to hear, like always. "Yes...yes, of course...it was all just a...test. A test. You passed Lord Vader, you may still be my apprentice."
THis is should be filmed in live action
Oh, I know this one. "Whaddya mean 'They blew up the Death Star'? Well who's THEY!? ...........What the hell is an aluminum falcon!?" There was more, including mention that the Death Star wasn't even fully paid off yet. He was pretty pissed.
Palpatines view is very much inline with todays politicians in which they believe they know more of running a war than the men fighting it. IMAGINE if he had actually LISTENED to his greatest commander in Thrawn and implemented the Tie defenders and a stronger more mobile navy...smh Rebels never wouldve stood a chance.
Palpatine didn't say: "Impossible" he said "Kim Possible" he was discussing a trade with Kim to trade Vader for Shego.
It was the failure of the darkside
“What do you mean they blew up the Death Star?$&@$! Well who’s ‘they?’ What the hell is an aluminum falcon?”
