He was a bit spooky but he actually made me laugh. LOL I like how he broke the fourth wall in the beginning of that soliloquy by looking directly in the camera and beckoning us to come nearer, that was just so funny. XD Yeah, I read a bit of the Star Wars Shakespeare books, and seeing it performed here is just even better, I'm glad they're well written, too. It's honestly a shame that Ian isn't a more popular actor, because he's really good at what he does, his own brand of classic Shakespearean actor for sure. :D

But then again, us super fans would notice any minor discrepancy.

He's talking about charging someone while conducting electricity through them.

    One-upping a character as intimidating and well executed as Darth Vader is ambitious enough. Making him a much smaller old man is even harder. Taking that concept and making it "real" on-screen, nailing every aspect of the character from casting and writing to makeup and leitmotif? Madness. I can't think of a single way they could've done better. George, Ian, and everyone involved deserve all the credit they get for Sheev. The character is one of the shining stars of an already very bright franchise.
