Case for Snoke

In my theory, it's the Sith, Plagueis and Sidious, who instructed Snoke to design the Death Stars. Thus we can say, Snoke was there to see the rise and fall of the Empire, and definitely part of the Siths' plan. Plagueis still had a hand in it, but he wasn't drawing up blueprints himself. That was Snoke's job. As time went on, he made improvements to the technology, until we got Starkiller Base. It seems strange for me that Plagueis would work on super-weapons himself: he was concentrating on trying to live forever.

 

In the defunct canon, Darth Tenebrous was a legendary ship designer, so for me, Plagueis didn't have to design them himself per se. All he had to do was approve the new concepts/ improvements for puppets like Snoke and Sate Pestage to carry out.

****

And did I miss something? As in an official announcement that Snoke is not Darth Plagueis?

 

Pablo posted that Plagueis was dead recently.

 

Wait.

THAT stupid tweet is the driving-force behind this inordinate amount of Plagueis gloom?
Oh, ye disciples of continuity... have u no faith? Pabs tweets are worthless...


The more Pabs denies Plagueis, the more he confirms.
This only ends well for Disney & Pabs if Snoke Darth Plagueis the Wise is getting the Jon Snow treatment.

"So sorry, we were protecting the story from getting spoiled" -- Gets a pass, begrudgingly or not.

"Not sorry, I trolled you. Told you Snoke is Snoke and it should be obvious that we don't give a wamprat's ass about continuity, the Prequel Trilogy, or the Skywalker-family-Saga." --Gets nothing but the Gas Face. (see 3rdBass 4 details)

 

Well, this isn't really the Plagueis thread, but I disagree here. I think Pablo will take a lot of heat if he's equivocating this time. So, I think we should take him at his word here.

Ah, I take that back about being sure of his tweet.



...Hard to express in PG-13 how much I hate Pablo right now. You know, I'm actually seriously considering that petition about getting him reprimanded. Because he certainly framed that like he was saying something new, and that's how everyone took it. If he can't say something plainly, he shouldn't say anything.

 

Which thread am I in now? Doesn't matter.

Pab's can yap all he wants, tweet all he likes, won't change a thing for me.

#PlagueisLivesBecauseSnokeSucksWithoutHim!

 

I'm sure that his will not have much bearing for most but this was also in the New "Star Wars :Absolutely Everything You Need to Know" book on Sidious' page. I'm sure many will stick with their theory but why publish stuff like this if it is planned to change in a movie.

 

Agreed. No Sith in the Sequels?

Luke hides from a deformed-Inquisitor who used to shine lick Vader's boots.
While the deformed-Inquisitor's apprentice, prays to the spirit of Luke's dead dad.

Snoke is failing as it is; and without making him Plagueis, things will only get worse from here.

 

But Snoke is Plagueis, so there's nothing to worry about.

#PlagueisConfirmed

 

I wouldn't put too much into this particular bit information. "Star Wars" wiki is a fan updated site. Since the Plaguies novel which establishes his species as a Munn is now considered Legends and there is not any other reference to his species, Star War Wiki has just been updated accordingly based on this fact. Plaguies may still be a Munn or he may not. We will not know until Lucasfilm states otherwise.

 

And how does Snoke deal with politics? He tries to blow the whole damn thing up. No messing around like Palpatine did.

 

The Sith aren't evil enough to blow up star systems?

 

No reason to hate Pablo. As expressed by kb93, "Pablo just tells us what we already know."

"I agree, possibly all he's doing is confirming the dialogue in Revenge of the Sith. Confirming that it took place, not even necessarily confirming it as fact." --Me, from the Darth Plagueis thread.

 

Vader didn't show any emotion after Alderaan's destruction.

Are you suggesting that wiping out a star system is beyond the Sith? That doesn't make any sense. You really think Sidious would think twice about wiping out the Hosnian system? Heck, Sidious loved blowing up planets, it was one of his favourite pastimes. He loved it so much he built two of them!

If Sidious had the technology of Starkiller Base, he would do the exact same as Snoke did.
