Goddammit

Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

If he's an old man, sure. That's the ONLY way it would work in my mind.

We’ve done this already. It’s Anakin Hayden you see at the end of ROTJ. Not some crusty old man. It has to be Hayden Anakin in this.


I forgot you’re finished with Star Wars if it’s him don’t worry. They’ll do it really well and surprise you. And it’ll make beautiful sense as he’s the throughline in all three trilogies.


(I don’t think it will happen I just want it to)

You don't think what will happen? He'll be in it or he's in it and I'll like it?

Both

If Anakin doesn't shpw up in this film, it a fucking crime, I hope it's a scene similar the the Yoda and Luke scene from TLJ.

Unless he's an old man.

They’ve literally used blue sky ideas from TFA, you can see them in the art of book.
Most noticeably the emperors throne room underwater with Rey swimming to the chair.
And other stuff.

So if that’s in play, the book also has Anakin as a force ghost but he’s burned and half ruined, like a split spirit. They obviously never went with it.

They might here. That could be our compromise

This got me thinking and wondering if Palpatine was the plan all along when firing up this new trilogy. I highly doubt they just decided to bring palpatine back for the final film for fan service. Im assuming it was the plan all along. Then, i ask, why haven't the prior two movies at least alluded to "something darker going on in the galaxy". There have been zero hints at something like this. I think it would have made it far more interesting . Instead, we were just led to believe that snoke was the bad guy, and Kylo was the new dark side enforcer. Because of that, as of now - prior to seeing the film, the idea of palpatine all of a sudden coming back feels.....cheap.

Of course, this can all change once I see the movie.

Random morning coffee thoughts.

I said a few months ago....

with the PT.... we the audience knew the machinations of Palpatine and his evil undercover ways


now maybe JJ is reversing it in the ST.......and the audience has no clue about Palpatine's hands in the cookie jar the whole time.


I'm not saying it's a good idea, but it's all I had. I don't like Palpatine returning. He died in ROTJ

Was some force lightning and a long fall really enough to kill the mighty Emperor Palpatine? I remember questioning his death even as a little kid.

IMHO, if the writers had wanted him to be definitively dead, they just could have had the first trooper to find him check his pulse and shake his head no. Super quick, super simple. By not taking that simple step, I can only imagine they wanted there to be some doubt.
