MGS ripped Star Wars off a lot. Despite JJ being friends with Kojima, Star Wars only ever had one nod back to MGS with C-3PO's red arm. Star Wars really could have used a Revolver Ocelot.

I've said before that Metal Gear is basically the closest thing to setting Star Wars in the modern day.

And I still like me theory that Snoke is actually Darth Plagueis having barely survived Palpatine's ascension through dark science magic, and/or a clone. I suppose I was semi right.

I guess it's technically true if Snoke was ever being directly controlled by Palpatine, since "Palpatine" is now just the outer shell of a thousand year old Russian nesting doll of Sith consciousness and would include Plagueis.

The funniest line in TFA is "Then maybe you'll need to explain it to Supreme Leader Snoke" or whatever. It's hysterical. Snoke! All the more evidence that they'd reveal his name to be a sham identity for Plagueis.

"You didn't drive our son to the dark side, Snoke did!" She says it with.. Some sincerity, but it falls flat because Snoke is a stupid name.

Edit: Yeah, but none of the Knights of Ren are actually named on screen so they get a bit of a pass on having dumb names.

You did a super job wrapping things up! And I'm not just saying that because I have to!
It always bugged me that all the characters have one syllable names. Rey, Finn, Poe, Rose, Snoke, even Kylo Ren's real name is Ben. It feels like a marketing directive to make the names all punchy and memorable or something

It's like some weird memetic understanding of Star Wars characters only have monosyllabic names. Luke, Han, Leia. But then Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Leia Organa. Tarkin, Vader, Ackbar, Lando, Jabba, Palpatine, Padme, Amidala...

If Akira Toriyama wrote Star Wars Snoke would have brothers or friends named Vaypor, Steem, and Haze.

Is Snoke some combation of Sno....(something) and Luke?

Maybe it just rhymes with "joke" because he's more of a punchline than anything.
