"Sith Trooper" just reminds me of these rejected Star Wars video game logo concepts:
AKA just slap two random Star Wars terms together and you have a new thing

yeah but we really don't KNOW Palpatine is returning in that kind of capacity. Sure it could be that, but it could also be some kind of dark force ghostly presence or something. Don't jump immediately to Palps is full blown alive and returning with an army, there are lots of possibilities for how he is involved. I'd like what you suggest just fine but yknow
yep, lots of cool ways this could go.I mean we know Snoke and Kylo aren't Sith. It could be Kylo is trying to usurp being a Sith though and using these as his personal guard
I mean there are plenty of options. Kylo is the boss now (I assume), he can do what he wants. Rey gets to remake the Jedi? Well then Kylo gets to remake the Sith. We already know he idolized his sith grandpa and his plan to burn everything down backfired, so why not.I mean we know Snoke and Kylo aren't Sith.

People speculating about something that won't even have that much screentime?

What we know is Ian McDiarmid is in the film playing Palpatine and filmed on set.We really don't though.
And if he does return, in what capacity?
It would be very, very difficult to have him survive his death in RoTJ.
I still think his return in the most literal sense is unlikely.

JJ Abrams at Celebration in an interview confirmed that part when asked for clarification. He said he was shocked it didn't leak when Ian was on set filming. We don't know if he is alive or anything of course, but we know Ian filmed as Palpatine in the film.
I cant see it be a hologram thing. If it was a one off scene like that I dont think they would have brought Ian on stage at Celebration and ended the teaser with his laugh. They would have kept it secret like they did Yoda.Probably a hologram that Kylo comes across or something, or maybe a ghost like the jedi. Definitely don't think Ian plays a full live Palpatine.

He is part of the Lucasfilm story group
I feel safe in assuming there is no chance this stuff is just mere flashback/cameo stuff. They are playing up Palpatine & the Sith way too heavily in the early marketing for this for it to be that.I would lol if it's just flashback only and we get a brief glimpse of the Sith Empire in the movie. Then there'll be all sorts of continuity weirdness to explain how it looks exactly like a First Order Stormtrooper.
i can see that. they turned on Kylo when they found out he killed snoke or whatever.

though now that i type that i guess that wouldn't really work since no one knows kylo actually killed him. they all assume it's rey probably.
man some dude was "speculating" in the stormtrooper thread while being up to date with the leaks.
Now he created a satisfying plot and ending ideas thread for IX lol.
Watch out.
