Ring Wars: Star Wars & Lord of the Rings Compared (168 person items)

"DARTH SIDIOUS & SAURON *The dark lords of their worlds, and the main antagonists of their sagas. *Both attained new names upon turning to darkness (From presumably Palpatine to Darth Sidious/From Mairon to Sauron). *Both were deceivers, using charismatic guises to gain the trust of and manipulate others (the politician Palpatine/Annatar,The Lord of Gifts) and further their plans. *They corrupted many people to join their side (Count Dooku & Anakin/The Nazgul & Saruman), most with the promise "

My Favorite Actors (Who even can save Shit!) (192 person items)

" Britain has given many great actors to play evil villains on the screen and McDiarmid is another one of those - but great anyhow and one of the few reasons why one would want to see the first "Star Wars" movies again."

"Lord Cutler Beckett could be Emperor Palpatine Connections: - - Both have leverage over other characters. - - Both have numerous armed forces and vessels to exert power over their respective worlds. - - Both are extremely arrogant, smug and disloyal. - - Both are trying to win the allegiance of another character and manipulate others to make it so.
