Regardless of screen time in the trilogy, Palpatine most certainly is the main antagonist.
How can a villain be the MAIN villain in a film if he/she is rarely seen? Screen time is everything. As absent as Liam Neeson was from the second act of Batman Begins, his character of Ra's al Ghul still had more screen time than the Scarecrow and Carmine Falcone - combined. Can you name more than three action movies where the main antagonist doesn't introduce themselves until the final 15 minutes of the movie?
The main antagonist is someone who is the protagonist's main focus in the movie. Bane was that main focus. All of the attention, throughout the film, is centered on him and his actions. The fact that he may or may not have been getting his marching orders from Talia changes nothing.

Go watch any horror film. Screen time isn't everything.

She wasn't introduced in the final 15 mins of the movie, she was there from the beginning, where clues to her being the villain were sprinkled throughout the movie.It's not the same as her "first appearing" on screen.

I agree Bane is the real villian but thats completely untrue.
Anthony Hopkins won best actor for his Hannibal Lector role despite being having only like 15 minutes of screen time. It's how you use the time is what counts.

This happens constantly in story telling.
