Star Wars - Emperor

So this'll be the Emperor then, I'm pretty sure in the first three films he was never called Palpatine so for my purposes Emperor will do just fine. Much like my childhood un-acceptance that the bald guy underneath the mask was Vader, my ten year old self wasn't really up for there being someone worse than Darth Vader. Vader didn't need some old monk telling him what to do and he proved that by throwing him down that shaft, still if he'd done it because he was more cool and evil than because he'd turned into a goodie goodie then I'd have been happier with that.
