He was definitly the best thing about the series--until the last 30 minutes of ROTS when he became a maniacal clown of sorts. But otherwise he had the most believably portrayed part in the series. It's kind of a shame that his talents were tied up in these films and not in something that is more worthy of them. He's mostly a stage actor but i think the film world would benefit from more of him in it.
