I didn’t mind the idea of Snoke. A power vacuum means someone else moves in. He didn’t even have to be the rumored Plagueis, just someone connected or whatever. Create a new lore that makes sense.
But then he just died. Not even in a fight, but through arrogant ignorance. He could see Kylo’s thoughts before, but somehow missed that he was being played? Stupid writing. I’m actually still a fan of TFA, and will defend what it was trying to do, but the other two movies can rot.
I maintain that killing Snoke as a red herring could be fine, too. I find a tragically irredeemable Kylo Ren to be much more interesting than tall skinny emperor anyway. But even if one didn’t like TLJ, TROS was almost the worst possible way to follow it up. It satisfied no one.
I was convinced that they were setting up Kylo as the big bad, I can’t think of the last time Star Wars had a tragic, irredeemable villain. It could have worked really well.
I like what they were going for in TFA with kind of an inverse Luke Skywalker, where he was struggling with the “pull” to the Light, before fully committing himself by killing his Master in TLJ. Then whatever the fuck TROS was happened and none of that really worked anymore.

Always found it crazy that of all the stories they could have taken inspiration from they chose one of the few that was panned on release

Revenge of the Sith is one of my favorite movies of all time

Okay but like Revenge of the sith because I thought it was good.
I like Maximum Overdrive because it’s not good.
Adam Sandler movies are a guilty pleasure

And if that wasn’t enough, they end what they call the Skywalker Saga with all Skywalkers dead and a Palpatine claiming their name and heritage.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but why was the body he was in all rotting and gross if he had freshly cloned bodies to use?

You’d think he would have kept some younger clones around, just in case. But then, he also was sure that Luke would join him and Anakin wouldn’t betray him even though that’s literally how the Sith work.
The attempt for more money has left me scarred and deformed…

Hey, he wasn’t even cut in half before he was tossed into a reactor.
But was he angry?

Actually in the
firstsecond wave of comics, Luke joins the dark side to locate and raze Palpatine’s cloning factory. There’s a deeply meaningful scene where Han and Leia retrieve him and have to convince him that he’s redeemable after everything he did to fit in.That was the second wave of comics. The first ones were the ones Marvel put out while the OT was still being made and which continued for a few years after RotJ.
Ooh thank you, I’ll fix it
That’s a cool idea, but my kneejerk reaction would be to fit in to find something else. Cloning takes away meaningfulness from killing Palpy-B
That’s the point. It took their victory away from them, and would keep doing so.
The movies fell flat so hard because they didn’t use it as a vehicle to explore anything, characterwise or emotionally. They missed the point and turned it into a plot speed bump.I just think bringing in cloning is making Vader’s sacrifice kinda bland

And we don’t . . . ever
Until the prequels

Yep only the prequels, definitely no sequels in Ba Sing Se

This is why I’m confident that Han Solo is fine. Shaft’s ain’t shit.
He was also impaled by a lightsaber and his lifelong friend Chewy fought to the death immediately afterwards but its all a moot point since Ford hated playing him anyways.
Hey, he wasn’t even cut in half.
Yeah but being cut in half increases your survival rate, statistically.
Darth Maul: cut in half, thrown down shaft, lived
Qui Gon Jin: Impaled, laid on floor, died
Don’t forget:
Mace windu: tazed a bit and thrown out a window: dead
They really fucked up their villains. Snoke needed to be more then just some guy. Phasma could have been a great side villian and gave Finn something to do. Huxley was incredibly portrayed and really came off as a threat before they made him into a clown and killed him off just like they did Phasma. A b plot where the villains have a Game of Thrones style intrigue going on would have been rad.
But nope, going back to Palpatine.
I remember little about the prequels but for some reason I remember Darth Grevious dying by slipping on a banana peel. Consistant line of cool villains dying in stupid ways in star wars post 80s. Boba Fetts demise was silly I guess.
