SPECULATION Does this Snoke theory suck?

I really don't think your theory sucks and in fact I find it quite interesting and much more interesting than many of the things that I've been hearing. Having Snoke be a failed Vader clone would go quite well with the ongoing tale as we all know that Palps didn't think twice about having his current apprentice removed if a more powerful one became available. While I know Sheev knew that Vader still had his uses, I tend to think that he was quite disappointed with the results as he ended up with another Grievous even if this one was more powerful. Having Palps use the experiments he learned from Plagueis to try and create a powerful Force user would go well with the whole Darth Plagueis story and Palps the guy that would have found a good use for Snoke even if he turned out to be a failed experiment.

Know, if you truly want to find a sucky Snoke theory...........

 

Snoke is Plagueis. It's been confirmed.*

I think that Snoke is going to tie back into the Original Trilogy but we isn't going to have some secret identity that is actually a character we know. He so old that he had to be involved in the conflicts somehow. I don't buy any of the theories that I see now. I think Snoke is really just Snoke and we've wasted all our time on trying to figure out who he is.

 

I don't like the idea that he just came out of no one and took over everything. I don't need him to be a certain character I just want to know more about his motivation.

 

I still think Rax is connected directly to Snoke directly in some way, seeing as he defies the Emperor's use of the Force to lure him out of hiding aboard his ship, and is therefore - to some extent - a Force-sensitive.

not a silly theory by any means though: I'm a fan!

 

I think this is a really interesting theory, although I like the idea that Snoke is a clone of Palps better than him being a clone of Vader. That would make more sense to me, and would echo the relationship of Palps/Vader with Snoke/Kylo. Pablo has said that Snoke is not human. Does being a clone mean you are not human? I dunno. Will this theory turn out to be correct? I guess we will probably find out in about 10 1/2 months. Personally, I like the mystery of who Snoke is and where he came from, but I am not getting deep into any of these theories. They are fun to think about the possibilities, but I am just enjoying the ride and looking forward to what is revealed in the movies.

 

I think Snoke is created from Lord Cronal at 90%

 

Interesting theory. My initial response is mentioned in the OP though. Wouldn’t Palps, a megalomaniac, choose to clone himself rather than his waffly apprentice? And if so, wouldn’t he claim to be the real guy and not someone new? The names ‘Vader’ and ‘Palpatine’ would have way more street cred with Imperial fan boys than ‘Snoke’. Anyway, cool idea.

 

I've just started reading Aftermath so I will be able to follow your theories.
Snoke is supposed to be 7 foot tall tho.
Maybe ol' sexy Palpatine had a torrid love affair with a Kaminoan?

 

didnt snoke also see the respublic? falso memories maybe? ?

 

do we know that it was a Sith site, or that it was significant to the Sith? or was it just a place that Palps was personally invested in for whatever reason? it could be that it holds ancient knowledge predating the Sith and Jedi. unless, of course, it says in Aftermath that it is indeed a Sith thing. i haven't read the book so i thought i'd ask.

you don't just sit around in unknown regions? sorry, i gotta disagree there!

firstly, they were clearly not sitting around as it must have taken a while to train up the troops and complete Starkiller Base.

secondly, sitting around and waiting is EXACTLY what the Sith did for hundreds of years! i don't think the dark side is absolutely synonymous with compulsive power grabs.
