All well and good, but has anyone addressed his bare-faced appropriation of Frankish culture? He's just lucky Christopher Lee isn't around …

I'd assumed he was trying (pathetically) to use it in the Mob sense.

I'm looking forward to a giant, albino, one-armed Kaiser Wilhelm, and to Sir Douglas Haig riding a goat.

That's Baron Harkonnen's line, Your Majesty.

Yeah, he has a special place in my heart for 'I've waited a long time for this moment, my little … green … ferrennnnd" as if he's talking to Kermit. Not to mention "UNLIMITED POWAH!!!"
