Definitely more of a villain.
Id say as of right now killing snoke only made kylo ren more of a villain. Especially where he is now supreme leader. In my opinion, him getting raging angry after his short battle with Luke Skywalker at the end of the film only made him stronger with the dark side of the force.
cough reylo cough
WHO IS SNOKE??!!!
Kys
More of a bad ass
People will strongly disagree but I think Kylo is going to pull a Darth Vader next movie (hopefully not die after his redemption though) I just want to believe he is confused and manipulated by snoke so with him out of the way I hope he becomes good.
Snoke: I know Kylo's every thought.
(Kylo betrays Snoke)
The timing of Snoke's line about knowing Kylo's every thought right before he is betrayed has been done countless times before in more lighthearted/ comedic scenes in other movies. This is another example of the movie trying to be humorous/comical and falling flat due to the gravity of the scene. Last Jedi wasted another compelling character in order to get a cheap chuckle out of the audience.
This movie was a joke the minute they had Luke throw Anakin's lightsaber away like it meant nothing to him. Come on. Poe Dameron stalling Hux with a phone prank.
Snoke its alive
I see kilo as a hero
Kylo killing Snoke did make him a kind of hero for me till he became a real ass about it and wanted to rule the whole galaxy side by side with Rey
Snoke's death made Ren more an accidental hero. He and Rey share a common goal – to burn down the First Order and start again.
More a villain
Hero and a bitch
OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAPPPPPPPPPPP
It LITERALLY Just occurred to me, as I Started writing this Comment…
The "Person who loses a Hand in Just about Every SW Movie" person…. IT WAS SNOKE for this Movie…
I hope Snoke isn't dead. Of all the ways to kill him, why go with a Darth Maul. He was a sith apprentice and survived, why can't Snoke?
It made me love him more, villain or hero xD I love Kylo's character 🙂
Was the Praetorian guard scene a nod to the 47 Ronin?
…..unless Rey actually killed snoke
If Snoke comes back as a ghost in the next movie then i might forgive the death scene.
Kylo has become a typical Disney villain… laughable. How sad…
Make Kylo a true dark side villan. Masters embody power, apprentices seek it. Kylo achieved the goal.
Daring, surprising – intense, amazing. Great stuff!
Just for minutes while watching we were made to believe kylo turned hero but then after he says that the past has to end…all of it (not the exact words) he becomes more of a villain.
Snoke knew Kylo was about to betray him. Let it happen. Snoke wasn't there. Just how Luke wasnt in front of Kylo.
Too much comedy forced into the movie. Whoever directed rogue one needs to direct number 9. I liked some stuff in the movie but a lot of it didn’t even feel like Star Wars 😥. Anyone else feel this way?
Snoke ain't dead. If Luke could pull off that trick.. so could Snoke.
A Jedi that looks at his master’s death is going to be a Jedi master like Luke when he saw Yoda’s death or like obi wan kenobi ,when he saw oui gon ‘s death
Admiral Ackbar should have lived and carried out the leadership when Leia was Mia and explained that the plan " Its a trap" and then shoot the ship at the destroyers….More of a fitting ending
Snoke’s hand is a reference to having a hand be chopped off in the other Star Wars movies
Hi there! Great , video. What are your thoughts on Ray fighting and defeating 3 pretorian guards with very little training. These guards are exeptionally skilled fighters that have been trained to face force sensitive beings. Seems highly unlikely that they would lose that matchup. Thanks!
If Darth maul can survive being cut in half and falling down hundreds of feet into a hole, I think Snoke can get by lmao
Story was garbage, film was garbage, to much identity politics. It's garbage
This scene was my MOST fave scene from the movie so good
Kylo killing Snoke made him more annoying, and more of a cry baby!
And it looked Rey killed Snoke not Ren.
But we can all agree that killing Snoke made Kylo the Supreme Leader!
It felt like he was asking her to “join” him(Kylo) as a subordinate or as a Queen?
Check your titles on the Empire scenes…sorry if repeat
Wtf
It made him more of a villain
Force users can use the force without moving their body
snoke is palpatine… that scar
No shit, Sherlock. Killing your master is the oldest Sith tradition there is !! We have seen it plenty of times all over canon and extended.
It made Kylo Ren a hero.
