Quanchi on suicide watch....
Seriously though, I was pretty disappointed to find this out (even after emperortrump spoiled it in the battle bar) for myself. By no means did we need to see a rehash of the OT, but Snoke had great potential. He came off as being just as, if not more, intelligent/crafty than Palpatine. He survived all those years after all; why kill him now? We better get some kick-ass, in-depth content on him in the literature segment of all of this.

I can't help but think that we haven't seen the last of Snoke, tbh. That is to say: if he is resurrected through *some* means(be them scientific or force-induced), I won't at all be surprised.I mean, if Maul can inextricably survive getting chopped in half... g007_teehee
Not a theory here but a brainstorming: I think it would be pretty cool if kylo killing snoke was the actual test, the final push to tilt him fully over to the dark side, and that in the next movie snoke as a spirit is going to try to possess kylo's body and rule the galaxy.
Essentially borrowing the DE plot, but it would at least make up for Smoke getting punked.

Maybe this dude or someone like him is Snoke?

To be honest, I don't think they've decided on an identity for Snoke yet.
When asked if he ever planned to elaborate on Snoke's back-story, Johnson replied, "It would have stopped any of these scenes dead cold if he had stopped and given a 30-second speech about how he's Darth Plagueis. It doesn't matter to Rey. If he had done that, Rey would have blinked and said, 'Who?' And the scene would have gone on...And I'm not saying he's Darth Plagueis!"
I haven't read book from SW universe for a long time, but, as I remember, Luceno was suggesting some interesting idea.
During LoE, Jedi were curious, if Sidious' demise, would somehow lead to Dooku's rise in power.
And it was a scene, in Darth Plageuis, when Sidious became stronger after his master's death? Am I wrong?
Parhaps at that point, Sidious and Vader's deaths, could lead their strongest servant (or strongest DS user just after them) to rise in power? Just another suggestion.
