He has a **** eating grin when he explains the power to create life. And as I recall the script did include him specifically saying that. The implication was Plagueis did exist and did teach Palps to not die. Which is how he could be in Skywalker. I think it will be more than a vision. But probably not Palps physically alive. J.J. said he wants this to be the end of all 9 films not just the OT. So to connect to the PT, you use Palps. And Anakin.
April 16, 20196 yr Author comment_387181 Okay with Palps dead, Snoke dead, heck Luke dead, Leia dead(spoiler) then Plagueis goes to...Kylo? Or Rey
April 16, 20196 yr comment_387188 I would guess Kylo redeems himself through a final sacrifice when he realizes everything he believes is BS and was manipulated by Palps. Remember on TFA he stares at Vader’s mask and says “show me again grandfather”. Which implies he’s seen visions of Vader. Since Anakin was redeemed it means that the visions were fake or anakins dark side is sort of it’s own sith ghost. Having Anakin come to kylo in Skywalker to explain to him how his whole believe system is BS would be pretty cool. Especially if it’s almost an angel/devil scene where kylo sees both Palps and Anakin at the same time. Family reunion.
April 17, 20196 yr comment_387195 Plagueis transferred his entity to Palps. Palps to Snoke? Snoke to ???. To Kylo? The entity continues to look for a suitable host. Vader didn't work (all crispy and whatnot). Luke wasn't a good host. Kylo, maybe.

The reason the Skywalkers are special is because they were created by the force itself. Undermining that just to be different was a huge mistake by Rian. Could have stopped at Rian wanted to subvert...
April 17, 20196 yr comment_387266 I can't believe they are giving Rian a trilogy. What a disaster. I believe it was Plagueis that created Anakin when he and Palpatine were working on prolonging life.

April 17, 20196 yr comment_387291 Solo was worse in the sense it was terribly boring and convoluted and not on keeping with the characters. But solo only ruined itself. 8 nearly ruined the entire trilogy.

But you're right. It was just a crappy stand alone. SW8 ruined SW7 and I'm not excited about SW9.

Kennedy screwed up big time with their big idea of film maker friendly movies and playing this weird relay with the saga, handing off each film. They should have fired Rian when he tore up JJ's story for 8 and turned in his own, awful awful script. I think JJ did a terrible job on Trek but a great job on TFA. It shows his different respect level for the franchises. He should have done the entire sequel Trilogy. Hopefully he can save it. Solo was just a terrible plot and the love story undermined his relationship with Leia. They didn't show Solo as the scoundrel he was purported to be before ANH. It was terrible and should be ignored.

There was a lot wrong with it but judged in the context of a re-boot, it was good. STID retroactively made it worse though. The basic issues with Trek was JJ going into it not knowing Trek, not liking Trek and feeling it had to be "fixed" by being made more like Star Wars. If JJ had respected Trek the same way he respected Wars, I think his 09 film could have been amazing. Plus, hiring a hack like Orci to write it was a bad idea too.
April 17, 20196 yr comment_387354 I enjoyed Solo and thought it was a good movie. The only reason 8 sucked was because they made Luke a whiny baby and killed him off. Rogue One IMO was light years better then both.

Rogue One IMO was light years better then both. There was more to dislike about 8 than just Luke. Throwing out Snoke, Reys's parents, Leia floating in space etc. Plus the whole Casino planet session that added little but took so much time. I liked Rogue One a lot. It's too bad they all got killed off, but it does make sense from a continuity standpoint.

The casino plot just didn’t belong at all. The Mary Poppins Leia scene. Side lining her for a new character that was basically just her. The slow motion chase through space. It was awful from beginning to end.

April 18, 20196 yr comment_387389 I didn't mind Snoke dying and the Leia scene was cheese but it didn't ruin the movie. I am very confident that if Luke kicked ass and was strong that people's opinions would of been very different of the movie.
April 18, 20196 yr comment_387404 I enjoyed Solo. Thought it was a good take on the character. SW8 was just pure crap. Just like Frosty said, as soon as he threw away the lightsaber I knew something was wrong.

Had the scene where he projected himself actually been real....wow. And have him crushing walkers with his force powers etc. That’s all we wanted. 5 hours ago, Logan007 said: I enjoyed Solo.

My problem with solo was mainly the plot was boring. It was really boring. And the characterization of solo was wrong. It was like taking the heroic solo from Empire and Return and showing the younger version of that character. But his arc in the trilogy was going from a selfish rogue to a hero. If he was always a hero it undermined his arc in the trilogy. The love story undermines his story with Leia too. He should have been a selfish jerk who either didn’t care about love or womanized. He could still be loyal to his friends (chewy and Lando). But he was way too heroic and lovey dovey.
April 20, 20196 yr comment_387802 Gotta say I watched a bit of Rogue One yesterday & enjoyed it. I remember sitting in the theatre in 2016 & at one point thinking to myself that it was a very good movie.
