*Spoiler Alert*
For those of you who have seen The Last Jedi, you will know that Snoke is dead. For those of you who haven’t, don’t say I didn’t tell you there were spoilers. But no one knows who Snoke really was.
First of all, Disney shouldn’t have killed him. Snoke could have done a lot more than sitting on his throne and talking to Kylo Ren and General Hux. We never got to even see him fight. He could have had powers to rival Darth Sidious. However, we will never know. Darth Maul did survive being cut in half so Snoke might have.
So who is he? First of all, I think he is a new guy, but I don’t want to think that. I’m going to go through some of the theories.
- Mace Windu: Some people say that Snoke is Mace Windu. It seems plausible but quite unlikely. So, after he got blasted out the window in Revenge of the Sith, he went underground and resurfaced 53 years later as a guy named Snoke. I don’t think that is possible. Mace Windu did use Vaapad. That lightsaber style is one that brings you closest to the Dark Side. He died. He died. Ok, he died. He’s not alive. Mace Windu got blasted with Force Lighting, got his hand cut off, and fell 1500 feet. Despite being a Jedi Master, he couldn’t survive. He was shocked in both ways (lighting and startled.)
- Jar Jar Binks: Okay, so Jar Jar Binks was responsible for everything because he is Jar Jar Binks. That’s all I need to say. So that means that he isn’t Snoke.
- Darth Plagueis: People think that Snoke is Darth Plagueis. I agree with this one the most because it makes so much more sense. Darth Plagueis could influence Midi-Chlorians to create life. So, Palpatine murdered him in his sleep. Plagueis sensed his apprentice and made more life. Even though he was killed, he survived. And maybe Palpatine stabbed him in his cheek? Odd place but Palpatine was an odd person. That would explain how his cheek is all warped.
So that explains who Snoke is. (Kind of)
Coming soon: Darth Jar Jar.
