I'm trying to remember when I first saw that, because the internet said 2014 but I swear it's older than that.

Same. Maybe it's one of those pre-existing things like Thrawn or kyber crystals that got adopted into the canon after the Disney acquisition.

The link I found specifically said his first name didn't exist in legends. Which doesn't seem right but I can't say for sure when I first heard the name.

at least Mandolorian is ok for now. bitch got punted to the back seat.

Looking forward to syncing up a Russian cam with a Japanese-English release version audio track.

Gotta get the best of both worlds again like TLJ. The screeners were so poor for TLJ you had to mishmash good audio with a really good cam that just didn't have it.

the nips will have an excellent quality cam, hell they probably will get a screener out as well. they dont give a fuck.

My buddy watched the last jedi on a cam streaming site and there was some old mexican lady commenting in Spanish the whole time, think the maid on family guy. Made the movie watchable, he doesn't remember anything else about the movie but her.

Yeah already been ranting about it elsewhere. Funny thing is I've barely read any EU because so much of it is just absolute trash.


They revealed his first name in the 2014 book Tarkin.

It was revealed in the prequels supplemental material, it's in the Plinkett reviews.

Behind the scenes of TLJ with Mark Hamill recognizing what Rian Smallman did to him.

Wait, seriously? Sheev?

That sounds right. Dunno why the source I read said it was never canon before 2014 then.

From memory it was something like the novel for Phantom Menace.

Terry Brooks ruins everything.

Not that this thread takes the lore seriously for the most part, but in the amazing novel Darth Plagueis novel (seriously one of the best SW books I've read, including the Thrawn trilogy), Palpatine's background and origins are explored much more.

His first name is indeed Sheev since that was revealed in a previous book by another author, but he resented his family and rejected everything about them, including the name Palpatine, in his youth. He eventually met Darth Plagueis (not yet knowing he was a Sith Lord) and as he grew up and some events happened that I'll not spoil, he eventually came to embrace the heritage of his family name but rejected still his given name (as he deeply hated his father who had chosen the name).

So that's why he's only ever called "Palpatine" outside of that one book where Tarkin calls him Sheev (which would probably call for getting his wrinkly ass sith-lightning'ed considering how much Palpatine despises that name outside of that book).

Read Darth Plagueis, it even makes the midichlorians tolerable no joke.

Add Kevin Feige to this image and Star Wars might have a chance. I just really hate they somewhat tainted the original story. Honestly, they should have fan serviced the crap out of these three movies IF they were going to make them otherwise, it would have been safer to let these guys run these spin offs like the Mandalorian and it would have been much less damaging.

I agree with Boogie2988. The Fallen Order and Mandalorian give me hope for the universe but nothing is going to change with what they've done to 7-9 as part of the original trilogy.
