He should.

if Sir Alec can get one for ANH, Ian can get one for ROTS.

And a knighthood in the process. wink

At best it'll probably lead to more work in the US.

wow..that is unbelievable..I'm in shock. EW is giving SW props??

I watched "Dragonslayer" last nite. Ian still had the very eerie voice even back in 1979.

Garth, Ian is one of the UK's most prolific theatre actors, so he should definatly get some recognition in the honors list for his services to theatre.

These days people can actually nominate those they would like to see get an award in the honors list, so maybe this is something FIGS could look in to? grin

Looks like they got a little potshot in at George towards the end:

"McDiarmid embraces the Dark Side with such rich, scenery-chewing gusto that George Lucas must have been relieved that the scenery in this case was mostly CGI."

I don't see that as much of a pot-shot, actually? confused

In that they might be playing off the notion of Lucas over-using CG in his films.

However, that has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

I'm very glad to see Ian getting recognition like this. He definitely deserves it.
