I just rewatched The Force Awakens last night. Ben 100% has a one-sided conversation with Vader's helmet where he was asking for advice.
It might be a retcon, but it works cause they accidentally set up for it.

He was already really good, but he really seems to be stepping up his game for this movie.
Honestly, if they'd kept Palpatine secret I would literally have zero hype for TROS. TLJ just left me with so little to care about or look forward to when it ended that for the first time I didn't care that I would have to wait years to see the next film.
He does some nice stuff. I hate that Kylo ship shot though.
That's how a view it too, just wish they committed to him earlier instead of randomly in the last film
HOLY SHIT.
Bro that sith theme...fuck yes.
Damn Palpatine portrayed int he style of the ST will be amazing. Book it.

Funny enough but Sheev's gameplaying would make Batman and Reed Richards blush

You are just one man. You are solo. But I am many. I am the Senate.
Yeah but honestly, why didn't they do this from the beginning? That scene in TFA would have been hype had it not been one-sided and would have made Palpatine's return in TROS feel more coherent.
Missed opportunities throughout this trilogy.

Palpatine is Ben Solo's dad.
The final fuck you to Anakin was impregnating his daughter via the Force. Han thinks it's his but he's not.
Yes.
i wish we could get some confirmation the production actually knows what palpatine's makeup is supposed to look like
cuz they sure as shit didn't do that in revenge of the sith with that poofy rubber halloween store mask shit they slapped on ian mcdiarmid

Feel like they know it's one of the few things people are going to come away not complaining about.

I don't care what people say but Palpatine's scream there is cool as fuck.
Yeah, you're right. It's definitely a retcon that they only came up with for this film, but oh well, I'll take it.
I do think that this whole trilogy's rep will really sink or swim based on this last movie, which is really unfortunate.
It's fucking hilarious. I love it.
Everything Palps does in ROTS is just the best.
Yea I'm aware of that, but they left it a bit ambiguous. The comic literally shows Palpatine and Anakin's mother and seems to directly say it.
With the comics being part of the new canon, and far more recent, I just thought it would be a better indication if that actually happened or not.
Froze on something interesting:
Looks like Palp has been hiding out in a old Sith temple? This just all is hitting the right notes for me. TLJ missed the mark on the weirder villain mythology stuff, IMO.

I will say that yes, I'm in for the space fantasy part of Star Wars not for the gritty sci fi parts which is why I was interested in Rey, Ben, Luke and Snoke's plotline in TLJ but couldn't care less about Finn and Poe's filler adventures.
I mean, it was true of the reboot Star Treks too, but there's just nothing underneath.
It's like getting a date with a supermodel only to find out they are dumb and boring to talk with.

Palpatine(to Ben Solo): "my baby boy"
lol, that's a perfect analogy......I'd still go though

lol same
Obi-Wan's skill at this is so great the sound seems to have changed every time I've seen the movie!
JJ: I'm bringing back Palpatine. Palpatine was Snoke.
