    I second that. And if you want to break the Rule of Two (assuming they're actual Sith and not Dark Siders), Lupita will be MVS' apprentice in SW7 as well

    Given the latest Palpatine rumors, could it be... ?
    (with the proper make-up and hair style)

    i was hoping someone would post pics like these, i think there's enough there to say yes
    certainly more resemblance than harrison and Driver

    hey... new thought, what if Driver is palps son and not a clone... ?

    That could work. If he's Palpatine's son (or grandson) he could view the throne as his birthright and be obsessed with restoring the Empire to its former glory so that he can take his place as its rightful ruler.

    The interesting thing will be seeing how Ep VII gives us a worthy threat without making it seem like the sacrifices of the OT were for nothing. If we're to get Sith (or the threat of Sith returning) how will that be squared with Anakin's fulfillment of the prophecy? If the Empire is still around, what did the Alliance really accomplish in the OT?

    I'm really looking forward to seeing how these problems are addressed.

    does it matter, I'm sure Palpatine post Episode III with his looks is a major playboy.:p

    anyways i mean, we have the skywalkers then what if this is about the palpatines, ot and st?

    I think it does, especially if it's certain characters. Driver's character could be a half-Nightsister or a half-Umbaran.

    perhaps he just froze his little palp seeds, and artificially inseminated someone

    In another thread we were discussing a different possibility for Driver - his character is playing the villain/sith and as the movie progresses we are all amazed at his advanced abilities in the force at such a young age (and the Alliance, or whatever they are now, are amazed too) and his immediate influence he has as a leader with everyone on the bad side (Empire or inquisitors or both or whatever the bad guys are) only to find out he is the reincarnated Palpatine in the body of a young clone of himself! I know what you're thinking and I'm not being completely serious about this - but it would be really sweet to watch an all out duel between Luke and a younger, stronger, faster Palpatine with all the same force abilities he had before! Just a fun, interesting thought...

    EDIT: Because as someone pointed out in that thread - we never got to see Luke and Palpatine go head to head - only Palp using lightening bolts on Luke after he threw away his light saber and said he wouldn't fight any more. Now Luke can show him who's the bigger cheese now! ;)

    I'm doubting (though liking) the resurrected Palpatine theories as GL himself said that The Emporer doesn't come back to life, and since these are based off of his story treatments and initial ideas...

    But with that said it was supposed to all end with Ep VI.
    ...and it was always the story of Anakin
    ...and GL wouldn't sign off on anyone else making SW films

    So who really knows

    I tend to believe we'll get an Emperor as MakingSW suggests, but that it will be a new Emperor, and one not necessarily related to Palp. An obvious choice is Max V S.

    But even with this happening, that doesn't mean Sidious isn't somewhere lurking behind the scenes. With what we learned about Talzin in the Son of Dathomir comic, it's quite possible that Palpatine knew what to do without a body.

    Okay, I have to say it. But all I'm seeing on on the right is Bill Murray. I can't un-see it.

    My friend gave me Season 1 of Girls to watch, and so far, Adam plays a charming douchebag flawlessly. And I saw "The F Word" this weekend. So I went from never seeing him, to seeing him in 2 roles in 24 hours. He has tons of charisma. Hope he gets to play that up.[/quote]

    LOL, I was just thinking the same thing. McDermid looks more like Bill Murray. Adam Driver reminds me of a grown-up Bill and Ted era Keanu Reeves... With bigger ears.

    Took the girl to go see "What If" this weekend, a new indie rom-com with Dan Radcliffe, and Adam Driver plays a supporting role. I thought he was quite funny in it. He's definitely got that goofy/abrasive friend role nailed down pretty well. I wonder if his role in Ep7 will play off that and he'll be sort of a humorous, psychotic villain, or if they'll try and break the mold and do something a little more serious with him?

    Either way, it'll be interesting to see what he can do with Star Wars. Him and Oscar are the two cast members that I'm looking forward to seeing the most.

    I think Driver and McDiarmid have similar eyes. I could see it.
