Summary
Rey & Snoke continue their Force-centric conversation in front of guest commentator Joseph Scrimshaw from the Force Center!
Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Rey telling Snoke that he underestimates Ben and her. Ends with Snoke levitating Rey away about 10 feet(3 meters) off the ground.
Podcast
- Great example of sarcastic Snoke here. Who does sarcasm better: Sheev or Snoke?
- Snoke being Sheev's angsty teenage son.
- Sheev being sick of subtlety and just broadcasting to the Galaxy that he's coming for them.
- Other things that Snoke is underestimating.
- Call out to Tony Thaxton. Make a 1950s or 60s doo-wop type song called "Young Fool".
- This scene is (probably) intentionally very evocative of the throne room scene in Return of the Jedi.
- Recall: Rian Johnson was originally going to write the outline for Trevorrow's third in the Trilogy, but when Colin got canned, Johnson smashed together his scripts for VIII and IX and made it his script for VIII.
- It really does undermine the expectations to have something from the end of a trilogy in the middle of a trilogy, but it works because Snoke actually does die (spoilers).
- Was Snoke ever a young man with a full head of hair? Did he think he was (in his implanted memory)? And if so, what style was his hair? Or was he always just a tall Charlie Brown?
- Various comic book artists doing their own take on illustrating Snoke.
- Snoke's big pointy nails. Joseph's head canon is that, much like Palpatine, this is a physical manifestation of his incredible evil and being a Force addict.
- That's what Alex used to think too until Revenge of the Sith. But this could still be the case (see below).
- Maybe, even if Snoke were to doll himself up (in an 80s movie montage), he'd still revert to his true form by morning.
Meta Minute
- 30:15 podcast episode length.
- Despite Alex biting Joseph's "hello there" gimmick, Joseph is four for four with the dramatic hood removal.
- There's a whole section on the Wookieepedia article for Force lightning that goes into the "disfigurement debate". The short answer is that no official word has been forthcoming.
Quotes
- Joseph: <dramatic pause> Hello there I'm Joseph Scrimshaw: writer, podcaster, and recreational hood remover.
- Alex: (paraphrasing Joseph, on The Rise of Skywalker) The Overt Menace.
- Pete: *loudly* I don't know guys!
- Joseph: (as the Emperor) <relaxes> unlimited power—I'm out!
