It kinda doesn't because Snoke asked Kylo to kill Rey in TLJ.

It's on Star Wars' Instagram page. Chill, lol
thats great to hear! Im glad prequel stuff isnt being totally ignored these days
It'll be beautiful alright with some amazing OST, but the plot and all the details will be peach cheeks.
Of course, there's also the possibility that it's not even Palpatine to begin with. This whole thing is about deception, so maybe someone else is just masquerading as the Sheevster who in turn portrays himself as yet more dark side users (Vader, Snoke). Then again, there's also no real way to pull off a satisfying conclusion with that solution within one film, so it's probably just Sheev for real. But how?
I still think Snoke wasn't literally Palpatine with a mask on (metaphorically). He was probably just being controlled like a puppet on strings. Still had some sense of autonomy.
Snoke as just a meat puppet is fine by me. Great performance in TLJ but still kind of a nothing character.

It makes sense now why anakin's ghost was never "bitch I turned light"
Not going to watch the video, but I'm going to assume its Lumpy. I'm sure Lumpy and Ben played together a lot as children, and it will be Lumpy that pulls him back from the dark side.
Didn't the comics imply/say that Palpatine had a huge role in creating Anakin?
I don't see how that doesn't fit. Palpatine likely used the body and persona of Snoke as a contingency for something like that? I dunno, I'm just spitballing here after a few lines form the clip -- the film may pose it very differently.
There's a panel in the Vader 2017 comic that seems to blatantly suggest this but then the Story Group walked it back on Twitter and claimed it was just a vision or something. It seems they're not willing to fully commit to it.
This Palpatine nonsense is starting to rival the Everyone was Sora nonsense of Kingdom Hearts. I love it.
Translator's note: Palpatine refers to his dick as "The Force"
So Palpatine's the over-arching villain of the trilogy again, just as he was in the OT and the prequels!
I actually enjoyed the TLJ but Rian certainly hasn't made things easier for JJ to pull around.
Seeing this it seems silly that the devil incarnate in the Star Wars universe would ever be defeated by throwing him over a railing.
He seems like a cancer on the universe that they didn't quite cut out. To me that makes retreading concepts, the First Order, planet destroying space spheres, that much more justified. If you're going to kill evil in physical form make sure you have a photo of the body before you party.

At first I was concerned about Palpatine making an appearance. But with this clip, I learned to stop worrying and love the Sheev
lol yeah
A true vision of bringing the audience whatever song & dance it is they said they wanted!
Star Wars canon 10 years from now (due to some comic), Padme was actually Palpatine.
Yeah, this works better. I chalked up Ben's conversation to old Benny being a little bonkers.

ROTS implies it. In ROTS' draft, Palpatine was going to come out and say that he created Anakin and to think of him as a father. Lucas said that he decided to let it remain ambiguous for the viewer to decide on whether Anakin is a Sith experiment or just created by the Force itself.
The comics have decided to let it stay ambiguous too but there are allusions to it as well.
Lol, yup. He was comparatively young at the time of ROTJ but of course he had all that makeup on. They also replaced the Emperor's hologram appearance in ESB, which was not played by McDiarmid originally, with McDiarmid in a later home video release.
That scene is a pretty big reveal for the official marketing.
So glad the ads leading up to Endgame were non-spoiler revealing absolutely nothing storywise. 🙂
