    Typical throwaway MCU villain

    There wasn't a point to any of it, they didn't plan the sequel trilogy, they hoped it would ride exclusively off brand loyalty, nostalgia, and political pandering. Hit those three marks and you can make the worst fricking thing anyone's ever seen but because the feefees get stroked right, it's held up as a modern masterpiece with followers who will fanatically die for it.

      Not this time. There was actual greatness to compare it to. You can’t Disnify things that were already part of broader pop culture. The reception to the ST kind of proves that.

    Snoke was a Force-sensitive humanoid genetic strandcast male who ruled the First Order as Supreme Leader during the New Republic Era. Possibly unaware of his true nature, Snoke was an artificial genetic construct created on the planet Exegol by the Dark Lord of the Sith and Galactic Emperor Darth Sidious and his Sith Eternal cult during the reign of the Galactic Empire. After Sidious' resurrection, Snoke's body held no use in the Sith Lord's goal for restoration, so was instead utilized by Sidious for his natural Force-sensitivity as a proxy he could manipulate for his Contingency. Though Snoke possessed an independent mind, he was obliviously influenced by his creator from afar.

      That's so messy and hurts to read.

    He was supposed to be a symbol of ((Patriarchy)), you know, old white man in charge of power etc.
    That's why his stupid spaceship also had the name The Supremacy.

    depends on what movie you're looking at, because the trilogy had fricking zero plans
    >in 7 he was the Emperor standing, since 7 was trying to set up a trilogy using the same formula as A New Hope
    >in 8 he was killed off as an example of Rian's desire to subvert everyone's expectations
    >in 9 he was retconned as a Palpatine clone so the series could still do the Kylo redemption arc without having to make a whole new villain from scratch
    he's probably the best example of why the sequel trilogy sucks

        This is why the sequel trilogy drives me berserk: the reliance on other media to explain the state of the galaxy instead of showing it or even expounding on it in the films themselves. It's like they slapped Genesis Climber Mospeada onto Star Wars and said "THIS is all related!" when nothing looks or feels the same as what came before it.

          Like how that Leia book basically tells you why the galaxy is the way it is in TFA, but you have no fricking clue watching the film.
          Same as Cinder being shown in a video game.

          exactly why i detested halo 4 and gave up on the series. Master Chief talking in the most conversational, casual tones EVER SEEN in the games, and it's to some fricking nobody that isn't actually a nobody because some turbonerd wrote some books about him.
          Absolute garbage. No fricking thank you, please.

      Extended universes were a mistake. Franchises should cease to be.

    Because JJ had no plan, Ryan just said frick.
    Last movie was a hasty patch up to fix it.
