I always like the Emperor from ESB because you saw so little of him. He was hidden in the shadows. He was this mysterous being who held the ultimate power in the galaxy but you only saw him in Hologram form.

It wasn't until many years after I had seen ROTJ that I found out that the man who played the Emperor wasn't even the same man who was in the Hologram in ESB. I thought they looked the same to me. And he was creepy looking, I tell you what.

I haven't seen the "updated" version, but from what I have read it doesn't look good. The Emperor gives away too much information too soon. Plus he says a corny line like "Search your feelings, you know it to be true." Lame. That is what Vader says to Luke on Bespin. Now it just sounds like Vader is a copy-cat in dialogue (even though technially he said it first.)
