"Somehow Palpatine returned" is perfectly adequate dialogue, it's just a dumb as shit plot contrivance.

Its a soap opera plot line without any of the backstory that makes soap operas entertaining. Anakin saying "I don't like sand" monologue is poor because its corny, but it does operate to help us understand Anakin as a character.

I cannot believe I'm hearing the sequels described as being a soap opera and the prequels described as being corny.

ALL star wars is a soap opera. It's all a spaghetti western set in space
