Who the fuck was this guy and how was he not around in EP4,5,6?
>>
>>63981765
He's Darth Plagueis, and he wasn't around because he was laying low during Palpatine's regime since old Palpy thought he was dead.
>>
Who fucking cares
>>
>>63981971
ffs he's not Plagueis, cut the bullshit

he's supreme leader Snoke OP, your new master

it doesn't matter. even if Disney ever call him Plagueis it will just be to pander to you not because they care about the EU.

It would make way more sense if he was Plaguis than some rando who magically appeared out of nowhere despite being alive during IV V and VI.

You're making him out to be a way bigger deal than he really is
>>
>>63983565
>>63983448
no, and the point is that it doesn't matter.

Snoke being Plagueis wouldn't be some awesome fucking reveal like you think. to most of the audience it would just be swapping one silly name for another, it won't have any relevance to them.

your insane attachment to the Star Wars franchise is preventing you from accepting that any serious attempt to create a persistent immersive world has been thrown in the garbage.
>>
>>63983620
not that anon but how is he doing that?
>>
>>63983565
yes, he was first mentioned in Ep.III, but his popularity comes from EU bullshit

How could Palpatine think he was dead if they are so powerful? These motherfuckers can sense when Luke Skywalker takes a shit 30k lightyears away
>>
>>63981765
Why are people questioning shit we know for a fact won't be answered for a while?
>>
>>63983697
he probably is that big. he did after all have a throne room at a massive scale, which means it could have been built for him, as they could easily have made the hologram smaller.

Disney and JJ aren't subtle. they wanted the "main bad guy" to be intimidating so they made him fuckhuge. just like they thought throwing tantrums would make Kylo Ren scarier.
>>
>>63983692
It would serve to tie him into the story a bit more, it's actually damaging to my immersion that a powerful dark side user was active this whole time and we never heard or saw of him.

As long as they can explain where he was in IV V and VI then it's okay, he could be one of the emperor's aides for all I care

That is a underwelmingstory for another mediocrefilm.

The more I see this "Snoke is Plagueis" theory, the more it makes sense.

Palpatine flatout tells Anakin that Plagueis could influence the force to create life. What was stopping him from forseeing that Palpatine was going to kill his ass, but secretly make himself a new body to transfer his life essence into?
And if that is the case, maybe his new body came out wrong, and thats why Snoke looks like he hit the death sticks a little too hard.
Fucking Qui-Gon Jinn managed to turn himself into a goddamn force ghost. This isnt that much of a stretch.
>>
>>63983774
I thought the Kylo tantrum scenes was supposed to show his immaturity and lack of control rather than make us as an audience fear him. If that was what they intended then they fucked up pretty bad

>>

Emperor Sheev "Darth Sidious" Palpatine
>>
>>63984058
I think the reason he is disfigured is because Palpy force-lit his ass while he was sleeping. Snoke is Plagueis, and he damn well better be because the villains thus far are pussies compared to Sheev, Vader, Maul, or Tyrannus. It's hard to get more powerful than Sidious' own master.
>>
>>63984394
This desu sempai. Sounds like some spooky smoke thing.
>>
Rumor has it that Lucas wrote Plagueis into the new trilogy and that he brings back old dead sith to life. Remember plagueis has the ability to bring people back from the dead. This will explain a major jedi vs sith battle in ep IX. The SITH weren't always two people. They used to be thousands. Darth Maul isn't dead thanks to the Clone Wars cartoon.

Isnt the whole point that each generation is stronger than the last?

If Bane was the strongest then whats the point of the whole master apprentice thing?

Of course he's Plagueis, who else would he be? His face is fucked because Sheev sliced it when he "killed him". They used some of Lucas ideas and tossed what they didn't like. They used the word sith in TFA so they haven't completely abandoned the sith order as a thing. Pretty much has to be Plagieus.

Yes please be the final reveal in episode 9. Rey is ending the Sith once and for all and stabs Snoke with Luke's saber. He becomes younger as he dies and his wrinkles disappear. His figure changes into JarJars and his ears flop down. "Meeeesssaaaa Jaaarr Jaa...." fades out and credit roll

He was a throwaway line in RotS, everything else about him comes from the EU. Under Lucas, Plageuis was in fact not canon, but entirely EU, and EU was never canon.

I don't care if he is canon in Disney universe, so are many other shitty ideas, but Disney is smart enough not to use them.

The director of the film himself considers it a throwaway line and that it's veracity is irrelevant to the plot. Plageuis is not a character in RotJ, he is a ambiguous tale told by Sheev to trick Anakin.

Only in the EU is Plageuis turned into actual character. Don't apply shitty EU fan fiction that came years after the film back into the movie.

Not that it matters, Disney will never use Plageuis in any capacity for a film anyway, and EUfags should move on and accept it.

Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life. After I killed him in his sleep he used this power to transfer his consciousness into the midichlorians where he lived on as a disembodied ghost within the force itself, eventually he managed to use the midichlorians to create a life in the womb of your mother. You Annakin, are his creation. Qui-Gon tried to tip everyone off to this when he said he believed the midichlorians "gave birth" to you, but no one listened. You are Plagueis will made flesh and eventually you will kill me and avenge his murder. After a few decades Plagueis will gain enough strength that he can project a physical image from within the force and talk to people in the real world, he will use this to found the First Order, and then turn Ben Solo against Luke Skywalker by pretending to be you, his grandfather, when he sends him visions. Eventually Luke will realize that the only way to destroy Plagueis is to perform an exorcism upon the force itself from within the first Jedi Temple, and so will begin his search.

I know he is canon under Disney, I said so much in my first post you illiterate nigger.

My point is that everything about him comes form the EU, and that he is an EU character turned canon by Disney. He wasn't canon under Lucas, and is under Disney.

I don't care. Robot Darth Maul, Force Gods, and force sensitive trees are canon too under Disney. None of that shit will be in the movies because it's too stupid and obscure for the mainstream audience.

And there is nothing you can do to change the fact that Plageuis was a throwaway line, and not an actual character ina film, only made significant by later EU writers.

I'm just pointing out a small flaw, you're getting really defensive about it for some reason. If you don't think they're going to give snoke any sort of backstory then I'd say that's a bit silly. Characters usually have a small amount of thought put into them before they're placed into a movie

The quote that I just gave was from Revenge of the Sith, a movie that Lucas did you gigantic fucking retard. Plagueis hasn't been mentioned once any any of the Disney series or books to my knowledge.

>>63985446

The only thing canon about him is that he was Sheev's master and Sheev killed him in his sleep. And really in that speech he doesn't say how long ago it was, if Sheev has been keeping himself alive a long time with Plagueis technique then he could be hundreds of years old.

I know Sheev and Plagueis had detailed backstories, ages and everything else but ALL of that is erased and non-canon now along with the rest of the EU. The only thing we know is he was Sheev's master, could create life, and Sheev murdered him.

Yes, there was a book simply called Darth Plagueis. Never read it nor any of the other EU books because most looked stupid as fuck. However, Plagueis is canon.
>>
>>63985253

>>
>>63985773

He's canon, yes. The book about him, his backstory, and everything else about him besides the fact he was Sheev's master is now non-canon though. All we know about him is his name really.

>The character was created by George Lucas as early as the first draft of Revenge of the Sith—dated April 2003—and possibly earlier than that.[8] His story was massively expanded upon in the 2012 novel Darth Plagueis, written by James Luceno. However, that story is part of the Star Wars legends continuity, formerly known as the "Expanded Universe," and is therefore not official canon.[9]

He's Supreme Leader Snoke and I think he's supposed to have been out in the Unknown Regions while the saga was happening, or something?

I'm sure we'll find out in VIII, but Rian Johnson will probably have to invent a backstory for him, because it's not like Abrams ever thinks about anything.

He's just a hologram. Or maybe even a reanimated body, possibly Sheev's corpse.

The real evil mastermind behind the entire Star Wars saga is Darth Plagueis. Or perhaps you know him better as Jar Jar Binks.
>>
>>63981971
He isn't Plagueis. When designing him Jew Jew thought about making Snoke a woman.
>>
>>63987239
When designing Vader, Lucas just knew he would be Luke's father so he went through various languages till he found something related that sounded cool enough.
Same thing this time but for Pike
>>
I bet Disney spurgs out and start fucking with the original trilogy saying Darth Plagueis was behind the scenes pulling the strings and do some flashback where it turns out he was training Luke and Yoda was all a hologram to eventually BTFO Palpatine and hand him Kylo Ren on a platter

No, it's pure coincidence.

Darth Vader appears in several earlier drafts as a name applied to an Imperial officer before finally being used for Vader in IV.

And the "I am your father" twist was very much not the case in V's first draft, which has Anakin's own ghost show up on Dagobah to guide Luke. It happened in a later draft.

It's actually the exact opposite. Making Snoke Plagueis would be one of the more straightforward erasures of old canon.

I want Snoke to be a completely new character and NOT a Sith.

Anakin Skywalker is the Chosen One. He was supposed to destroy the Sith, and he did. In the new Disney canon, they still haven't established that the Sith return, or even that they can, and I really think they shouldn't.

I want his sacrifice to mean something. I don't want the end of Return of the Jedi to just get completely walked back. I want the Sith to be gone for good.

THIS. Snoke IS Plagueis. His cranium is all twisted and fucked up because Palpatine stroke it with his lightsaber while Snoke was sleeping and left him for death. Plagueis entered some sort of Sith trance and took him years to regenerate his brain and shit. He awoke just as the Emperor was killed and during the 30 years that followed secretely engineered the First Order... (fleet army and Starkiller)

Banes claim to fame is surviving the Sith killing each other en masse in petty squabbles for power while getting wiped out by the Jedi, but the Sith Apprentice eventually killing his master thing predates the rule of two.

Snoke = Plagueis (fuck i hate the name Plagueis though) makes the most sense.

They can't just throw away the concepts introduced in the prequels, and the Plagueis story was an interesting little loose end.

They're in need of a worthy "big bad", and introducing Plagueis would be a good way to strongly tie in something from the prequels without crapping up the new movies.

They're also now forced to adhere to the canonical "rule of two", which at this point seems obvious: Snoke/Plagueis is grooming Kylo as the second Sith. It's like pottery.
