As much as I like Ian returning and Sidious himself, I think bringing him back ruins the whole point of Anakin's redemption except saving Luke. I think it should have been Plagueis to be the main villain, as he was most well known for doing this death cheating business and was even theorized to have indirectly created Anakin. If that's so then Kylo is also an indirect creation of his

[@generalzod7959]

oh it did. it completely ruined the theme george established of anakin being the chosen one who restored balance to the force. but this is disney we're talking about. they never had any plan when they started making the sequel trilogy so when they got to the 3rd film and snoke was already dead, they had no idea who was going to be the new baddy and resurrected ol' sparky. i like ian as palpatine however, when george wrote the return of the jedi, anakin killed him. george said so thus, it is so. i've never seen this movie or anything after rogue one from disney and while it's neat to see him reprise the role once more, it doesn't make sense.

[@iamchrispaezjr]

He was brought back in legends as well. Palpatine always had contingencies in the event of his death. The man who fooled the entire Jedi for years and brought them down like a Trojan horse really wouldn’t have a backup plan to cheat death? He wasn’t dumb. He knew he hadn’t fully and completely turned Anakin. Not really. Him being beaten by Rey just shows the same level of arrogance he displayed towards Windu when he shot lightning and barbecued himself. Nothing has changed about his character.

[@generalzod7959]

@iamchrispaezjr thing is though, according to George, after vader threw him down the shaft, he was dead, dead, dead. That was how anakin lived up to the title of chosen one who would return balance to the force.

[@ryanodonovan9497]

@@generalzod7959 Which he did, but that doesn’t mean that balance and peace lasts forever in an imperfect galaxy. Also, George Lucas doesn’t own Star Wars anymore, and sold it of his own free will. So he no longer has any say in what should or shouldn’t be. I agree with you that the story wasn’t well planned out, but at least J. J. Abrams’ logic made some sense still when explaining it to Ian McDiarmid, which is that Palpatine has already been the main devil throughout this saga, thus it should end that way. And Random Guy, whilst Darth Plagueis was better known for cheating death, not having him in the films at least supports what Palpatine says was ironic about him; “He could save others from death, but not himself.”

You have to give Kylo props, the way he walked up inside that Sith Temple completely alone ready to fight the Emperor in single combat plus any other potential Sith inside...he didn’t even bring his Knights which are all force users (they’re basically his Inquisitors) who could technically help him with this sort of thing. This is the most “Vader like” we’ve ever seen him, no fear, no hesitation. This is exactly how Vader would have approached a direct threat to his rule, if he were the “Emperor” or “Supreme Leader”, this is exactly how Palpatine approached Maul and Savage the second he got wind of what they were up to, he personally went to deal with them alone...mad respect to Kylo for acting like a true Emperor, he is Sith in every way but name.

[@INTJ10551]

The knights of Ren are not force users.

[@Ivbo]

Ravenclaw Blue, Yes they are...it’s literally confirmed in a recent comic that you cannot join the Knights of Ren without being a force user...and if you watch the fight scene between Kylo and all the Knights, right after Kylo force pushes one of them to the ground in the beginning, another one of the Knights literally uses the force to push Kylo back, it happens quickly...go watch the scene again, this happens before he gets the saber right in the beginning...all the Knights are dark side force users, it’s been confirmed.

Honestly, having a plan B and a plan C is just pure palpatine. Had the entire trilogy been planned that way it would've been better but even the way it is, it is not as inconsistent as people thinks. The "aftermath" trilogy and the "darth vader" comics add some pretty interesting stuff

[@NormalChannel95]

The fact that Palpatine was the voice inside his head and said that the dark side of the force is a pathway to many abilities some considered to be unnatural, just proves that he is somewhat responsible for both Anakins' dreams about his mother and Padme.

[@josephcasias9303]

I think those were actual visions he got through the force. Having visions of the future was a power he had but lost when he became Vader. I thought it was palpatine too, but he does talk to Anakin through the force right before Anakin goes to the chancellor's office before windu goes to arrest him.

[@simonpitt8145]

Throughout the last trilogy, I do get the impression the storyline was made up as they went along, rather than having a more coherent, longer term plan in mind from the outset and sticking to it. It is clear to me, having realized they made a mistake in killing off Snoke, that Palpatine was brought back more out of an act of desperation than anything else. This was to cover for the fact that it became obvious to even the substandard writers that Kylo Ren just didn't convince as the main villain and so they had to do _something_ . Kylo simply came across as an immature, spoilt brat. Nor was he scary in any way, quite irritating in fact. It would have been better to have killed him off in episode 8 and kept Snoke who I thought was quite an intriguing, eerie and intimidating opponent. They already had the makings of a great bad guy and proceeded to ruin it by focusing instead on someone who was already becoming quite boring. Bringing Darth Plageius in as an alternative would have probably been better than bringing Palpatine back. This way, at least you wouldn't have devalued the original trilogies at the same time, which is exactly what one of the unintended consequences was. After all, what was the point in Annakin/Darth Vader at all if he is only to achieve one mock heroic moment at the end of six films? All that just for the illusion of having killed Palps - really? Kylo's love/hate relationship with Rey was silly and overplayed, and I'm not so sure too many people really cared about it after a while anyway. Was it a sci-fi or a romantic movie that was supposed to be filmed here? Another gripe I personally had ( in episode 9 ) were all the fake deaths, that is false alarm deaths. It started with Chewbacca being killed in a spacecraft - only he wasn't in that spacecraft after all but in another one which suddenly loomed over the horizon! And so he was still alive, phew we can all breathe a sigh of relief. They did this type of thing twice more, once with Rey and once with Kylo ( pity ). Is it a sci-fi movie or a child's fairytale being shown here? Still, it's all about opinions and mine is that the last trilogy was just plain awful.
