Hey, he may have done a great job as the Emperor in ROTJ, and as Palpatine in TPM and AOTC, and he may be a fantastic actor ...
... but he gave one of the worst performances I've ever seen as the Emperor in ROTS and the 2004 addition to ESB. Just ... awful.
I disagree, they wanted to show the contrast between mild mannered Palpatine and Maniacal Sidious. How could you even hate his performance in the opera house?
