Random Star Wars Thoughts

[Majobu5]

I agree. Although the idea of Snoke being a ghost is intriguing... Ghosts don't need chairs and there seems to be a big holographic projector shining light down from the ceiling.

I thought about this as well. If so, then why did Obi Wan sit on the log with Luke in Return of the Jedi after Yoda died? Even when he's walking through the brush, branches move out of the way.

Perhaps it's because he's materialised into the physical realm far enough...

Also, I read a theory that Leia had more than one child...

Dang Leia!...

Ghosts may not need chairs, but there are certain habits inherent in human interaction that a ghost would maintain. The brush and branches move out of the way because the ghosts in Star Wars aren't ghosts as we think of them. They are apparitions of The Living Force that take on the form and personality of certain people.

At least that's how I understand it.

Leia was a twin. Twins are more likely to have twins, depending on the cause. Some women are more likely to release two eggs, as Padme did to have one boy and one girl. Leia may inherit some genetic tendency. Identical twin men or women are more likely to have identical twin children. That doesn't apply here. The previous non-Disney-canon had Jacen (son) and Jaina(daughter) Solo as Leia's twins. This won't affect Jacen's chances of having twins, but it would affect Jaina's chances to release two eggs. But it's not always a genetically influenced tendency.

If Leia abandoned a second child when I see ep8, I shall be very put out.

The age differance between Ben and Ray is too great for them to be twins.  Ben was likely born within a year of the Battle of Endor, nearly 30 years ago, while Rey is around 19.

So it is possible that Snoke could be a spirit sitting on a throne/chair, because it was a habit, just as the emperor sat in his throne (we assume) for years and years.

Entirely possible.  It is sort of fun to consider all possibilities!

Yup

Snoke isn't translucent like the old Leia hologram, nor the Obi Wan spirit. He has a shadow.



He's got an advanced hologram. Or, he's able to project a more potent spirit image. Though, he asks Hux to bring Kylo to him. Where's him if not here? Maybe a hologram of a spirit? Maybe malarkey?

[Darth Tepes]

How do you know? He could have been killed in the blast. >¿>

But Leia hadn't been trained in the Force. Although, Luke hadn't been taught how to commune with Force spooks when Obi Wan showed up on Hoth, so why did Yoda have to "teach" OW how to communicate with QG?

Yeah, but someone on the control deck should have had a warning that the shields had been dropped, and that person should have been able to find out who and how. Haven't these people ever heard of hiring an IT Nazi? I've dealt with these types. They may be a pain in the rear, but nothing slips through the cyber-cracks. I mean c'mon, they have radar techs



Seems a bit of a stretch for a frontline ground pounder to be that well versed in cyber-espionage.

And the only reason I like the idea that Phasma is Rey's mom is that it explains why she left her with such an undesirable as Unkar Plut. After that, not so much.

They killed that with Obi Wan.

I think you are taking that WAY too seriously....

I originally thought Snoke was the Grand Inquisitor

[Obese Wan Kenobese]

This guy was in ep3. He warned Obi Wan that Grievous was there.

Yea, the Inquisitor was from Utapau

[Obese Wan Kenobese]

Pau'ans, also known as Utapauns, were gaunt, long-limbed humanoids from Utapau. They dwelled in their planet's sinkholes, and tamed the local varactyl for riding. Due to their long life-span, they were also known as the Ancients. -wookiepedia

They often live underground and prefer the dark. Description says they have claws. Not too much so in Disney's version.



Snoke seems to prefer keeping light at his back.
