Lol @ always going back to the OT to justify the ST.
Palpatine was the main Villain of ROTJ. Built up in the background of the previous 2 films. Not a throwaway like Snoke.

Yeah, the "Palpatine was never explained in the OT" excuse was always absolute BS. Before the OT the setting was not established and when it was it was built around Sheev's Empire. Sheev, therefore, fit into the setting (an Empire needs an Emperor) and there was no need to explain it. By contrast, Snoke doesn't organically fit into an already established universe. Anyway, I expect they will give a throwaway line to explain him in this film. He is likely another apprentice or a disfigured clone.

I am simply calling a spade a spade. These films are superior thus far to the Ots. You hate them and doubted the climax. I do not. I believe.
Star Wars Celebration this year was all about Palpatine, Vader and Maul. And now theyre bringing Palpatine back into the sequels. Clearly no one cares about Snoke or Kylo.

Afaik, nobody from the ST cast even attended the event.
So why fans would care?
Originally posted by Darth ThorThe ot fans are big time into Vader and Sidious. I never said Snoke was popular but I do love him and Maul to a lesser extent.
