A Palpatine origin movie would be so cool

[adamboy]

The fact he took over thousands of Jedi and wiped out most of them within a single night he was truly a evil genius he even managed to corrupt the chosen one quite easily and took his chance to reveal himself after so many years what he really was

[alexfelix]

Plaguies: Palpatine what are the coolest names
Palpatine: Maul, Tyranus and Vader
Plaguies: Your hired

[danieljohnston]

Picturing Matt Smith as a young Palpatine is messing with my head now.

[fahimalvi]

How Palpatine became a Sith Lord? Easy. He told himself: DEW IT!!!

[hunchoboss]

palpatines existence not being detectable by a force user is so unique it obviously gave him the confidence to hide in plain site while infiltrating the republic and orchestrating a galactic civil war that he would later use to create the empire for him to rule and destroy the jedi order…all because he was considered a shadow in the force

[angelrucker]

Who's Palpatine? That's clearly the Senate..

[Jorizzle]

I've been saying for years that they need a Palpatine origin story movie! He's the, if not one of the best villains ever written. It's time to see how he became who he did in a full length movie.

[jokawild]

They need to make a movie about palpatine.

Go for Papa Palpatine... “You have a collect call from... click* breathing* Darth Vader”

Oh great

[vader]

I have heard of the Tragedy of Darth Plagueus the Wise

[davidmccarthy]

Interesting. So to have someone call Palpatine "Sheev" would be like how Dumbledore and Harry call Voldemort "Tom"

[kevinhernandez]

New theory: Papa Palpy didn't die, he just regenerated

[CarlJC]

Matt Smith as Sheev was needed, what a legend, shame on you Disney

[RichardtheFilmGeek]

Now that I’ve watched this video, Disney absolutely *HAVE* to give Palpatine his very own standalone character study/origin story anthology movie similar to Joker

[Nork]

Plaguies might be my favorite Star Wars novel... or at least in my top 5 anyway. Its fun watching Plaguies and Palpatine toying with all of these super powerful, super rich, and super well connected politicians, crime lords, and royal houses. These Republic elites are all arrogant and corrupt, and they think of themselves as being equal or greater to Palpatine and Plaguies. But when the Sith Lords are forced to reveal themselves, they quickly demonstrate that these rich politicians and lords were never their equal. It reminds me of that scene in Batman where Bane asks Dagget 'do you feel in charge?' Yeah, Palpatine and Plaguies basically do that a lot to the Coruscant elite and its always satisfying.

[randychene]

To be sure; I believe ' Star Wars Darth Plaigus ' the novel is THE perfect way to go for either a movie or series depicting the novel, as it clearly defines Palps from a young age to a full fledged Sith Lord, and the scope of his rise to power as well....

[sarahcook]

I love his backstory, it adds so much depth to him. Unfortunately, this video leaves out several important things about how abusive his father was to the family.

[scottbegley]

Beauty of Darth Sidious is there's always things hidden from others forever lost or waiting to be found. Possibly Palpatine has relatives left, or clones. Wouldn't be surprised if he had a hidden brother his own parents didn't know. Such is the power of the Dark side.

[znmonlight]

When palpatine was thrown into the core, he actually fell into his tardis and escaped
