Meh, Rey is a Palpatine. YouTube said so.

So lightsabre combat form is genetic?

ha... a better argument would be whoever trained Palpatine trained Rey at a young age.

or maybe it's just because she's used to fighting with her staff and it's hard to swing a staff around rather than just poking stabs due to the length.

I'm excited for this, but I think I'm even more hyped for Infinity War now.

Nice! I'm pre-screening for my 7yr old as well. I prescreen all Star Wars movies.... it's what a dutiful father does.

Didn't find his character compelling. His look was very "CG", and as the big bad, he should have an element of realism. Being a hologram isn't itself lame, but the execution of him was. He looked to belong more in a Harry Potter movie than Star Wars.


I absolutely do not understand this complaint at all. A hologram, by definition, is a CG projection

I have never heard anyone complain about the lack of photorealism of any other Star Wars comm holograms.

Plus blowing up a grainy hologram even further is going to make it look even less realistic.

Where they screwed up was not making it the standard blue hologram like all the others depicted in Star Wars.

agree. If anything complain about the fact that it's a needlessly huge hologram when a smaller one would suffice. Then again, it could be explained away as Snoke wanting his presence visually felt to his subordinates... like executives do with higher chairs and large desks.

Reread my post. You literally just agreed with what I said. It being a hologram wasn't the problem, it was the execution. The OT holograms worked because like you said, they were blue and the depictions felt very real.

Wasn't the hologram of the emperor the first time we see him pretty big?

Damn it. Forgot about that. Kind of makes me respect the choice a little more in TFA.

For the purposes of this poll, let's say a perfectly rendered blend of Ewan McGregor and Alec Guinness' faces.

IDK, but they have a guy who can do a hell of a voice impersonation of the Alec Guinness Kenobi from Rebels.

Stuck watching this Disney Christmas special on ABC so my wife-to-be can see Hanson.
At least a new Star Wars tv spot and Mark Hamel will be something for me to look forward to
