So who was he?

So who was he?

Bane?

WHO CARES HE'S DEAD XD

Wait if he said Rey was only so strong because Kylo was strong and the force was balancing shit out does that mean Luke had to die because snoke died and the force was balancing shit out holy shit that's dumb

His name is Not Important

WHO CARES
TURN YOUR BRAIN OFF
IT WILL NEVER BE YOUR PRECIOUS ORIGINAL TRILOGY YOU FUCKING FANBOY

He's Snoke

Snoke Knight

The whole entire "Rey's as good as Kylo because muh balance" shit is so fucking gay to begin with. Kylo had to actually train and Rey just gets some affirmative action lightsaber knowledge and force abilities

Who was emperor before the prequels?

AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

a senator

Emperor Sneed

>leader of the First Order is an ugly CGI alien
>when the entire point of the Empire is that it never allowed aliens to enlist
I don't know, but I'm glad they killed him off. He was a complete Mary Sue of a villain and the only reason people ignored that is because they were so focused on Rey.

Is there a webm of his death scene?

why does he look like he is a woman with a beard?

And before that?

Charles I

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise?

Sneed.

Idk but it basically goes like this:

>Snoke has Luke's lightsaber next to him on a table
>Snoke commands Kylo to kill Rey
>Rey is on her knees in front of Kylo and he has his lightsaber out
>Snoke the entire time is doing some cliche villain speech as to why Kylo needs to kill Rey, basically rubbing Rey's death in her face
>Kylo uses the force to activate Luke's lightsaber cutting Snoke in half as he sits on this throne, afterwards the lightsaber flies to Kylo and he gives it to Rey
>They fight off Snoke's guards

>Kylo tries to convince Rey to join him so they can rule the galaxy together.
>She refuses
>They fight over Luke's lightsaber using the force and it breaks into 2.
>Kylo passes out
>Rey escapes on a space ship

that's what happened

Nobody important (formerly one of JJ's mystery boxes)

Darth Forchannus

The only character to have blue eyes, who wasn't returning cast

Palpatine’s Twin

Sneed, the undying

He's 5'5

what was the fucking point of the Council not wanting to train Anakin then? He would just naturally become as strong as needed to balance the force

To be fair, Snoke didn't enlist, and even Palpatine wasn't really a xenophobe, he just didn't care if his officers were.

>blue eyes
shit sith

>Palpatine wasn't really a xenophobe
newfag, yes he was. Why do you think the CIS were all made up of non humans?

Old White men are allowed to look like ugly aliens in current year. Krennics beautiful face will be missed.

some faggot sith LARPer. couldn't even sense his own apprentice betraying him for ULTIMATE POWAHHHH

That's what happened to poppy pappy palpy tho

IT DOESN'T MATTER JUST ENJOY THE FILM >:(

vader betrayed him for muh kin. snork was so fucking full of himself he couldn't sense an obvious betrayal for his rule of the first order

>newfag, yes he was.
That was expanded universe stuff that was dropped once Attack of the Clones hit considering Darth Maul and his number one in the senate being non-humans.

That should be an obvious reason since Anakins balls are fried and Pandabear is dead. Kylo could have any toothy girl in the galaxy as he was second in command of the first order.

>HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO MEEEEEE

Maul was a disposal tool. Same with the Senate, he dissolved the entire thing later remember. It's why Thawn coming into power really shook things up

1 detail you're missing user, in movies now ,and don't take this as a joke, but for real. Anakin is a white male and he has to work for everything, which is normal in this time and age.

Women don't have to do this, it's totally how it is now, just accept it.

This would be too smart for Disney Star Wars

>drops the word "wise" twice in the encounter to give Pleagueus fanboys boners
>immediately kills him
>oh but he'll probably come back with cybernetic parts
>lol nah heres a scene with a close up of his corpse with its tongue sticking out

Seriously, what the fuck can they possibly do to draw people to episode nine? Kylo has been reduced to a cartoon villain who cant even kill 400 people with an armada of tens of thousands.

The armor plot on this movie is greater than the armor plot on the whole of both trilogies combined.

They fit like 30 people on the falcon. Everyone else was killed b/c hux was stupid enough not to destroy the raddus. The base on crait had no shields. They could've brought some of their remaining destroyers down to obliterate the base.

I WANT TO KNOW. Why does this person look like he does? If the fucking Empire was crushed, how the fuck did he rebuild in a few decades? Who made him in charge? RIAN JOHNSON IS A FUCKING COCKSUCKER

Hux's mother. They tell you this very early on but it's missed by a lot of people because of an explosion.

Hey bud you can watch it online now.

lol

he's the prime jedi, he's in the symbol on the floor in the island

big, soft submissive eyes.

This, if Rey didn't start off as the best pilot, marksman, mechanic, force user, and lightsaber duelist in the galaxy it would have been sexism because someone out there could have been better than her, a woman.

...

The big bad guy controlling everything. His death was the culmination of the entire trilogy.

see the thing people seem to miss is that the whole balance thing completely destroys the entire lore. if the force is always going to balance itself then how in the fuck did the jedi exists for thousands of years with thousands of active jedi while there was only ever 2 sith? it makes no fucking sense. sure the force jedi did eventually fall and it could be argued that was the force balancing itself but that makes no fucking sense. if we go by that then why did it take the force thousands of years to do something about the balance yet now it does it seemly instantly?

the real answer is that it's all just a bunch of fucking bull shit and not a single person involved actually knows what in the fuck they are doing so they just make shit up without even thinking about the established lore

Balance only comes into play to stop the dark side. Anakin balances out Sheev (except he fucked up and joined him for decades, oops). Rey balances out Kylo (except she wants to bone him).

It's almost like JJ Abrams didn't have a plan for anything and was just making stuff up because he thought it was cool

Glad to see nostalgiafags getting BTFO'd on this one. Didn't think Star Wars would have the guts.

he was palatine v2 avengers inspired Thanos character big ole guy on throne with wrinkled skin

B-BUT WHAT ABOUT CONTINUITY. WHAT ABOUT MUH WORLD BUILDING. ARHHHH MY BRAIN LITERALLY CANNOT HANDLE NON-LINEAR PLOT DIRECTIONS

Someone give me one single reason he needed to be a character at all in the new trilogy.

it's absolutely glorious, isn't it? take out the retarded super leia and casino subplot and you have a solid movie. inb4 disneyshill

Didn't mind the Casino, but it felt rushed. Kinda okay with them going all-in on super leia rather than continuing with these vague, eye-closing "must be the force" moments we've gotten from leia for 20-something years of the franchise.

She either has fucking force powers or she doesn't. Glad they finally just underlined her abilities.

I’ve seen copouts like this before.

They didn’t scare me then.

They do now.

Emperor Smizz

midichlorians are a zero-sum game

Jar Jar Binks

this. You guys are all nazis, gosh.

The OT didn't have a seven film saga behind it into which the new mythology needed to be fit. This film did. Besides, the OT did flesh out the Empire and its rise a fair bit, whereas Snoke is just a random out of the blue who doesn't fit with the huge amount of established storytelling whatsoever. He just shows up with no story and no connection to anything.

...

Keep telling yourself that. The novelisations make it very clear that Sheev was 1488.

>tfw we'll have to endure years of 'extended universe' material about him and his origens for years to come.

it's like history is repeating itself..

Sheev knew that he was testing Vader's loyalty, he just thought that Vader would cuck.

Snoke didn't even really seem to know what was going on - he wasn't really trying to lure in Rey or antagonise her, he thought he already had Kylo's loyalty, so he didn't need Kylo to kill her. He was just kind of hanging out, and got himself shanked because Kylo is a loose canon and Rey is a stronk female heroine that nevertheless uses embarrassing amounts of pussy power.

What was so bad about Superleia? Yes, it looked goofy, but it's not like she's putting on some massive display of Force power out of nowhere. She was floating in space and just needed a single pull to get her moving back towards the ship.

Before the prequels he was the apprentice of Darth Plagueis the Wise and the Senator of Naboo

Soy

would have set a more dark and depressing tone for the rest of the move had she just died. then by the time we get to the final act, where all hope is lost, luke comes in and gives more credence to the "spark" for the new rebellion idea

Yes that's why they said the force balances itself out.
>Anakin --> Vader brought "balance" to the force
For nuwars this is a literal meaning therefore Kylo and Snoke vs Rey and Luke

kys

Maybe the force can't make up its mind? That would be a kind of interesting idea, if the enemy was the force, and they had to find a way to bring it into submission and it started fighting back by setting shit against them. I dunno. Maybe that wouldnt be enough of a page turner for modern audiences.

A letdown.

The Senate.

...

steve snokes. he was hired by palpatine to play the bad guy but hes really just a washed out actor looking for work

I HATE THIS STUPID RE-IMAGING OF WHAT "BALANCE" MEANT IT MAKES MY AUTISM FLARE UP LIKE NOTHING ELSE ONLY BECAUSE THIS IS HOW NORMALFAGS INTERPRETED IT BACK WHEN THE PREQUELS WERE STILL RELEASING AND NOW DISNEY IS CATERING EXACTLY TO THEIR RETARDED IDEAS INSTEAD OF CLARIFYING ON WHAT GEORGE ORIGINALLY MEANT.

YOU COULD HAVE AN ENTIRE NEW STAR WARS SAGA UNIQUE AND ENTIRELY DEVOID OF THE PREVIOUS FILMS BUT THEY KEEP BRINGING BACK PAST ACTORS AND OLDER IDEAS JUST TO FUCK WITH THEM. IM SICK OF IT. IM GONNA MAKE ORDER 66 LOOK LIKE A FUCKING JOKE. DONT GO TO ACHTO TOMORROW.

in 4, the man dissolving old remnants of the republic government, securing the new empire

in 5, vader's direct supervisor and somehow closely related to him, probably a follower of the dark side,

in 6, a powerful user of the dark side, a manipulative asshole who deeply wanted to turn luke to the dark side to the point he intentionally delayed defeating the rebels over endor in order to do so, also incredibly overcondfident, and extremely self serving to where he was willing to sacrifice vader

so you see him go from some vague political entity in 4, to dark lord of the sith who has driven most of the action of the past three films, in 6


furthermore, vader was the primary antagonist of the trilogy until the throne room, at which point even then he's still a major antagonist until his redemption

Agreed.

Let's be real, the reason humans are the most common species in the galaxy and why only humans serve the empire is for production reasons. Palpatine had zero issue working closely with non-humans (Maul and Thrawn, Xizor if you count the Legends, probably more I'm not aware of), though he had a history of pitting different people and groups against each other either for his own amusement or to further his goals. If anything, he can only be accused of using xenophobia to divide the Republic in the first place and keeping people from uniting against him after the rise of the Empire. Plus, all of this ties into the obvious parallels with Nazi Germany.

An user who tripped fagged as "Mizzlewump" posted what VII was going to be about nearly two years (March 2014) before A New Hope Recycled came out.

The only thing that was off was "Lando Jr"

Literally everything in that is wrong.

Ugly goldmember
That cloak was way too distracting.

I'M THE MAN IN CHARGE!!!

Man, this is fucking retarded. The balance doesn't mean light vs dark, it means the absence of darkness.

Fucking hell.
