[@3SailorMartin]

Gianni Colamatteo the only thing he didn't have a contingency plan for was his apprentice turning on him (which when you think about it seems a little odd since that is basically status quo for the Sith)

[@giannicolamatteo8155]

@@3SailorMartin if you watch the clone wars and the bad batch it expands on his schemes, hes allways 3 steps ahead of everyone, plus the reason hè had a contigency for a traitorous apprentice is because e wants to get rid of the "rule of two " And replace it with his "rule of one", ie make it so hè is the one true Sith forever, thats why hes been cloning himself trying to make himself immortal

[@fightingfalcon777]

@@3SailorMartin He actually did when you consider his hidden fortress on Exegol and his cloning plan for if Vader betrayed him, allowing him to start over. If anything, I think his lack of a contingency comes down to Vader betraying him the way he did. We know in TROS that Palpatine’s whole thing was he originally wanted Rey to give in to the dark side and strike him down, as this would allow him to possess Rey. Presumably, had Kylo killed Rey, he likely would have done that to him instead. And that is a key detail: it needed to be a dark side kill, a kill out of anger and selfish desire to make him dead, not a killing done in a light side state of mind where it isn’t done out of some selfish need. That’s what I think he was planning for in ROTJ, thinking he had a win-win-win. If he succeeded in convincing Luke to give into his anger and strike him, he could have possessed him and claimed Luke’s body for his own, giving him a host with the same potential he hoped Anakin would have before Mustafar. If Vader stopped Luke from killing him and Luke killed Vader, then he had a more powerful apprentice he could use and when Luke (inevitably) tried to kill him and take over, he could possess him then. And if Vader stopped Luke from killing him and killed Luke, then at the very least, the biggest threat to his reign would be gone and Palpatine would still have Vader as his enforcer while he sought alternate paths to immortality. He simply didn’t consider Vader betraying him for light side reasons. He never believed Luke would be able to survive AND resist the call of the dark side/stay true to the light. And in then end, when Vader betrayed him, it wasn’t out of a selfish desire to kill his master and take the throne; it was out of the selfless love of a father sacrificing himself to save his son

[@totterdell]

Palpatine is definition of perfect planning, manipulation, cunning, and knowing when to use your biggest assets.

[@adamb89]

Except for one big problem: The Death Star. He poured too many assets into one resource, and not only that but failed to learn from his mistake and tried to build a second one. The smart play would be to build a fleet of super star destroyers instead. You still have the capability of carpet bombing a planet into oblivion, like Mandalore, and you can spread out your assets to cover more ground. I mean a fleet of 100 super star destroyers suddenly popping out of hyperspace in orbit and completely blockading the planet would be more devastating than seeing the death star cresting the horizon. At least that way people on the far side of the planet have a chance to evacuate. But if the globe were instantly surrounded by capital ships? Forget about it. Global extinction.

[@prussianpolydactyl836]

[@TenaciousJoe24]

Good. Good.

[@fightingfalcon777]

@@Rosewolf29 he really didn’t, if you’re referring to the Death Star. As we know now from Rogue One, the Rebels had to lose A LOT of guys to get the information of where the vulnerability was. And even when they managed to find it, it was a literal one-in-a-million shot. The Rebels would never have found that the exhaust port was the weakness if they hadn’t gotten the plans. Then, the odds of someone actually making that shot was near-impossible. Getting past the turrets, making it down the trench without getting shot, and then actually getting the torpedoes down the shaft and get out; the odds of that were nigh-impossible with Luke only pulling it off because he had the Force. And that’s not even counting the brilliance of his plan for creating the Empire and taking over the galaxy. He spent decades manipulating the Republic, slowly but surely destroying and corrupting it and the Jedi from within, fomenting a Galactic civil war (the Clone Wars) which he played both sides of and manipulated to give himself Supreme executive power. He had a masterful plan that the Jedi were unable to stop. And then he managed to succeed in seducing the Chosen One. He spent years twisting and manipulating Anakin, turning him into his apprentice. He stole the Messiah from his religion and used him to destroy it. Palpatine a was genius; I can’t think of the Joker or Megatron pulling off any sort of plan that comes even close to the scale and success of Palpatine’s for conquering the galaxy

[@vetarlittorf1807]

Too bad he became too sure of himself after he conquered the galaxy. Creating the Death Star only caused more people to rebel against him and it was pretty stupid of him to let the rebels know the location of the shield generator before the second Death Star finished construction. So ironically the Empire's greatest achievement was its doom. Instead of building Death Stars, Palpatine should have used his resources to mass-produce the TIE Defender and maximize production of Star Destroyers.

Not only did Palpatine play the galaxy against each other, but the war itself acted as a smokescreen to cloud the eyes of the Jedi and prevent them from identifying him as the Sith. Then, because the Jedi had become such a central part of the republic, politics and their own wariness of the clone army forced them to take part in the war, scattering them across the galaxy. What they should’ve done as soon as they realized that the Sith were likely pulling the strings, was gather their greatest seers in a central location and work together to pinpoint Palpatine’s identity. I’d bet that only the most horrifically colossal war could stop the Jedi’s best from finding him.

I don't know how "smart" creating Horcruxes was. It was rather desperation, and I heard that because of the destruction of his Horcruxes and having a maimed soul Voldemort would, once dead, not be able to rest eternally, but be eternally trapped in limbo as the maimed being, like what Harry saw during his stay in Limbo. So ultimately, his Horcruxes took him to the worst. When it comes to Palpatine. That plan seemed to good to be credible. But whoever took a good look to reality the past few years, knows that the real situation is actually by far more grim.

Dalton from Inside Man wasn't the villain. His whole thing was to expose a war criminal. When it comes to Star Wars I'm not sure of Palpatine was smart or if the Jedi were really that dumb. They found the clone army right before Palpatine uses that army for a war and nobody seen any kind of connection with it and on top of that Douku told Obi that the senate was under the control of the sith.

I think the best MCU's villain plan was Killian's in iron man 3, using terrorism as a distraction for world's medias and authorities while he was becoming the most powerful man on earth, and it would have gone smoothly, if it wasn't for JARVIS that somehow "was able to pinpoint" The Mandarin's location

More than creating 7 horrocruxes, I think the genius of Voldemort’s stunt was to make three of them out of historic Hogwarts relics. Think about it, one of the things that people most admire in the HP universe is history. And any normal person who would find out what the horocruxes were wouldn’t dare to have the weight on their shoulder of destroying something that was so hard to preserve over centuries. Maybe Voldemort knew this mentality and went for it. Fortunately, harry and friends were brave enough to not give a shit about history…

Creating the horcruxes was both smart and stupid. He had planned 6 horcruxes so that his soul would be in 7 pieces and with 7 being a powerful number it could possibly have worked. But there were two problems. 1. D&D teaches us that creating a phylactery takes a part of your sanity with it, so creating 6 would make you certified insane and not in the good way. 2. He accidentally made 7 horcruxes with Harry being the one he didn't do correctly. If he had known about Harry's scar he would not have made the snake a horcrux as 8 pieces made him vulnerable.

Who was the worse villian though? Voldemort, a loveless product of a Love potion. Or Dumbledore, who used, and manipulated a young boy for 6 yrs without ever telling him the truth? Voldemort may have been the big baddy of the series. But MANY of the adults share blame. Practically Albus Dumbledore, who ruined the lives of many of his students

i love Upgrade. such an underrated movie.

It was kind of idiotic to make horcruxes out of things which were obviously related to Tom though. He could have used anything irrelevant which would have made it virtually impossible for anyone to find them.

Inside Man is an underrated movie IMO

The problem with Goldfinger's scheme is that it wouldn't have worked. Gold is a very dense metal, and while it's possible the outermost layer of a brick might become contaminated, all you'd have to do is melt the whole thing down and recast it. That thin layer of radioactive material would get completely mixed in with all the rest of it, and the gold's density itself would render the radioactivity inert.

I clicked because I love Rosemund Pike.

My own personal opinion: The Joker's switch is incredibly brilliant because he didn't know which one Batman would pick. He just knew whichever one he picked wouldn't be the one he saved. His plan did assume Batman would get one of them and the cops would fail to get the other, but if both did get saved he could just try to break Batman again later.
