Do we know for sure? I know it's very unlikely that Lynch shot anything with Bowie, but you never know.

I think I is better than II. If you subtract the love story, it's a good SW movie. And there's stuff in it that I enjoy (the Obi-Wan stuff is great, mostly because McGregor is so good). But I find that love story to be excruciatingly bad - worse than anything in Episode I. It's a bit better between Anakin in Padme in…

I just wrote almost the same thing. People got the SW movie they asked for with The Force Awakens (which I thought was great). Why are we still moaning about Episode I? I feel like it's something in Gen X'ers DNA to bitch about this movie. It never ends!

It's too bad he wasn't asked about the theory floating around that Jar Jar was to eventually become a Sith lord/big bad, but the reaction to the character was so negative, George killed it.

Skaarsgard has denied involvement.

That's midi-chlorian. : )

Do you hate it because it's random and seemingly comes out of nowhere? I feel like it should bother me, but it didn't. I can't say why.

It's the only time it's ever used with the Emperor. It's not "the emperor's theme". He just happens to be talking about Plagueis. And then they use the exact same cue (almost, it's in a different key).

The track is actually called "Palpatine's Teachings". When Palpatine is talking about Plagueis, it's almost an identical music cue as "Snoke". I think that's a really odd coincidence.

I'm not taking him for his word. I'm not saying Plagueis is a ghost. I'm saying it was a trick he pulled on Sidious.

That's actually lifted from the scene in the movie. Does it change your opinion that Ren at one point says "The Supreme Leader is wise"? Probably not.

Pretty much all the evidence you need. You're welcome.

Good analysis. Wrong why. I don't think there's a way of proving or disproving.

So Snoke is really Darth Plagueis, right? This could end up interesting as one of the interesting nuggets of Revenge of the Sith was Sidious's tale of Darth Plagueis The Wise, who learned how to create life/cheat death. And looking at the Darth Plagueis book, he looks just like Snoke.

It's hard to read a script and count huge stacks of money at the same time.

You apparently have not heard nor read the lyrics to "Lick It Up".

Gene Simmons, is that you?

No, they deserve a reward.

Yep! RIP.

I swear some bad did a cover of "Rip & Destroy", but for the life of me and can't recall who it was.
