    Wasn't the Supreme Leader the same title as the leader of the Yuuzhan Vong?

    I can dig something like that. I am wondering if we'll somehow get backstory in one of the next episodes, or if it'll be relegated to the print media.

    I might see a passing reference made, but not sure such an 'explanation' of sorts would work in a proper Star Wars movie.

    What if Snoke is the size of an infant and wears swaddling diapers like Baby New Year?

    He has been confirmed to be 7 feet tall. Not sure why people keep propagating the "tiny" rumor.

    I don't think Snoke was going to train him unless he made a step towards the dark side. Clearly after he makes the leap after killing his father it is then Snoke will train him. He sensed the light side in Ren at first and manipulated him just like Palp manipulated Anakin. He will be training with Snoke off screen between film. He will most likely call him master next time we see them since Snoke said its time to train him.

    Which is really cool that we get to witness Kylo Ren's transformation.

    Then we all will be disappointed, I expect him to be the same height as Kylo, the hologram makes him more intimidating,

    Kylo says though that "by the grace of your (Snoke's) training, I will not be tempted". So, Snoke is Kylo's master, whether he calls him master or not.

    Not to mention that the VD actually refers to Kylo as an apprentice.

    Ren thinks Snoke is wise and seems deferential to him, but he also has an agenda of his own which doesn't necessarily coincide with Snoke's orders as General Hux notes early in the movie when discussing capturing or destroying BB-8. Furthermore, when Ren tells Rey he can teach her the ways of the force, it is unclear to me if he is not trying to double-cross Snoke.

    I agree. I think in Ep8 we see the beginning of the cybernetic "grave robber" that was common in the concept art.

    Totally!

    They've mentioned some of the ideas they came up with were better saved for 8 or 9.
