    Oooh, look at that gash across his face. He's definitely an ex warrior of some type.

    His apprentice takes after him now.

    Maz Kanata was my favorite new character in the film. She was just so cute, warm, and charming.

    I like how they've made Snoke look like a Hammer Horror villain. Very excited to find out more about him in the next two films.

    Snoke reminds me of Gary Oldman's character from Hannibal. ;)

    The lighting in those Snoke shots. I can't wait until we have Blu-ray and can start picking out great composition in shots.

    "Serkis said the character was aware of the events from the earlier films but was a new addition to the storyline"

    Snoke looks like a Vampire in that image from the real old horror movies.

    That scar on Snoke on top of his head definitely doesnt appear to be from a lightsaber as it is twisted and crooked. Perhaps just the darkside eating him up? It seems it would have to be a solid metal weapon to cause an injury that jagged.

    I just feel that he's an altogether new baddie.

    I think that wound could be a saber-cut. Why not? Witness Qui-Gon's change of direction cutting the blast doors on board the TF ship. A lightsaber could make a jagged or question-mark-shaped wound, I think.

    It's definitely a massive injury. He doesn't look like any race I'm familiar with.

    Almost like Nosferatu with the high collar, white face, and spindly fingers.

    Maybe he is one of the ones that found the source of the Dark Side in the Beyond, and it is consuming him, which is why he needs Kylo Ren to host his soul. Okay, maybe the Kylo Ren part is out there, but the first part could definitely be legit.

    Since Snoke is seen as a hologram, I wonder what his /true/ size is.

    :confused:

    MeBeJedi, since the 19th and my first showing I've been saying he is the dark side Yoda and he's maybe only a few feet tall and this huge hologram is a Wizard of Oz like cover.
    However, I believe Serkis or someone else in the production said he's a slightly taller than normal humanoid.

    Could he be the Grand Inquisitor who survived his fall into the exploding reactor somehow? [face_thinking]

    I don't have anything really against how they decided to go with motion capture instead of prosthetics, but I honestly do not see how it would have been "impossible" to go there with prosthetics.

    Snoke has a big scar on his head and a deformed left cheek. If they did prosthetics for Palpatine in ROTS, I don't see how this would be going much farther than that.

    I suppose the height difference (7 feet tall and very thin...Andy Serkis isn't thin) and the larger-than-normal hands were the deciding factors.

    Nope...Pablo said he's new to the SW Universe.

    Agreed....even with CGI enhancements.

    What if he's really tiny, like Ant-Man sized? That would be a fantastic reveal! Kylo could just step on him like a bug and become Supreme Leader by usurpation. That would put a twist on... just about everything, really.
