^I’m certain he’s referencing Evil Dead II.
Regarding Palpy, I mostly saw the '04 DVD when I was younger, but started watching P&S VHS copies eventually because I ended up liking the originals and didn’t own the GOUT DVD. Suffice to say a younger viewer who grew up with the PT and SEs should be able to see why the Emperor replacement is so poorly executed it’s embarrassing. The original Emperor is a small but incredibly memorable performance, and it outshines the phoned in Ian shoot by a mile.
And Shaw makes way more sense than Hayden in ROTJ.
