We haven't seen a non-hologram version of Snoke yet right?

sure that isn't Burgess Meredith's corpse

I'm still not sure if that's legit or some sort of red herring
Was that in EW or from a specific source?
― mh, Thursday, 10 August 2017 02:30 (six years ago) link
Pretty sure it was in the batch of character shots which were obtained somehow and then removed at request of LFL.

on a related note, I poked around looking at fan websites, and that makingstarwars website has some really bad content!
they've gotten a little better, but the "here's a sketch of this character we heard about/what luke skywalker's new cloak looks like" drawings are pretty bad
I kind of want to start a site where I post sketches of fake leaked ideas and they all look like a first effort of someone who just bought "how to draw star wars characters"

if you just follow the link nashwan posted, the snoke pic and better shots of the red guards are all there
I want to do a bizzaro gazzara thing though let me try this out

Is this dress white and gold or black and blue?

are we all still embodying the theory that he's a Wizard of Oz-esque projection
― Neanderthal, Thursday, 10 August 2017 13:58 (six years ago) link
I'm intrigued because, barring a second trailer that has more lot teases, I'm really not sure where they're going with this movie at all! I've been keeping up on all kinds of Star Wars junk and there are a bunch of things that could possibly tie in, but it really seems like they've done more fleshing out of the universe than anything.
I think most of my fears about it all going wrong, plot-wise, really only apply to the 9th episode. This one's wide open.
― mh, Thursday, 10 August 2017 14:01 (six years ago) link
the main "projection" going on is fans wanting to believe he is an interesting villain who is part of an interesting story, for which unfortunately there are no clues, crumbs or easter eggs in ep 7.

man, remember how mysterious and evil the emperor was before George Lucas decided we needed to see him in episodes 1 - 3?
― mh, Thursday, 10 August 2017 14:06 (six years ago) link
how cool would it have been if he only showed up at the tail end of episode 3, and used evil sith magic to enthrall the senate and set himself up as emperor, no real backstory
― mh, Thursday, 10 August 2017 14:07 (six years ago) link
mainly i wonder how much ep 9 is going to be affected by carrie fisher's death

I worry, but if they can kill Han Solo... they can work around her absence, hopefully

Hoping for Snoke a quick Looper-style montage showing how he became like he is over the last 30 years
― nashwan, Thursday, 10 August 2017 14:21 (six years ago) link
well, they knew going into episode 8 that han was gonna bite it - who knows what their plans for leia were before carrie fisher died. she's supposed to have a pretty substantial role in ep 8 iirc

xp or the last.... 3000 years
― mh, Thursday, 10 August 2017 14:28 (six years ago) link
my worry for episode 9 is that they're going to take the idea of a threat outside the known galaxy as a unifying thing that brings the remnants of the new republic and first order together. who knows, maybe Snoke already is that threat and it's not been realized
― mh, Thursday, 10 August 2017 14:30 (six years ago) link
theory? but holographic projections are all over these movies! a holographic projection is the key plot point of the first film.
if the theory is that he is somebody else projecting what we see then that would be a first for the series. i don't see why he would look like something else and then project a sickly battered visage.
if they make any moves towards getting past the Skywalkers it will be all for the better imo. family drama killed Star Wars

it's a red herring, Snoke is actually George Lucas
― mh, Thursday, 10 August 2017 16:23 (six years ago) link
Snoke is Franklin Richards

I reread a bunch of Fantastic Four before bed the last couple nights, and while unlikely, I will go with... maybe

So this site http://www.starwarsunderworld.com/2017/08/first-look-at-last-jedi-funko-pop.html?m=1 got a leak of Funko collectibles coming out later this year for SW8 and pretty much confirms that Snoke linked above is accurate:

Snoke is Betty White?

Snoke is ET Evil Fairy Gothmother
― AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 10 August 2017 21:31 (six years ago) link
If you imagine him thirty years younger and still recovering from the horrific mutilation of his face and neck, it's pretty clear who Snoke is:

'snoke' is an almost-anagram for 'ewoks' guys
it's clear that snoke is in fact a freshly-shaved wicket from return of the jedi, driven insane by the carnage he witnessed on endor and bent on indiscriminate revenge

Rian Johnson is making the best star wars movie
Just off the top of your head, which movie would you guess has the most wipe transitions?— Rian Johnson (@rianjohnson) August 25, 2017
Poll answer:Empire - 42 wipe transitions!A New Hope - 31TFA had just 14 https://t.co/l87EVGnKYf— Rian Johnson (@rianjohnson) August 25, 2017
The most wipe transitions in a SW movie was Ep 1, with 55. To my eternal shame, The Last Jedi is bringing up the rear with a measly 12.— Rian Johnson (@rianjohnson) August 25, 2017

Is Abrams directing anything right now? Johnson is probably too busy on VIII to be doing pre-production on IX.
― jmm, Tuesday, 5 September 2017 22:47 (six years ago) link
It'll be interesting to see if there's a change in timeline -- as of now, IX is supposed to debut in less than two years.
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 5 September 2017 22:50 (six years ago) link
I have high hopes for this Johnson film and think Abrams should just stop whatever the hell he is doing and go away for a while
