I was just reminded from sarcastically discoursing how one of the worst scenes in Rise of Skywalker is when Ren meets Palpatine. EVERY single line is exposition meant to try to make the absurd make sense and it just makes it worse

Having just watched Ren"s introduction in TFA - which is, again, also an Abrams film - it's such a sad contrast

Like seriously: PALPATINE: the dark side is a pathway, etc KYLO: I killed Snoke (ok buddy, no one asked) PALPATINE: I MADE SNOKE!!! it's like when I was GMing a modern fantasy tabletop game and realized I forgot to make up a big bad and named someone Gargablak, demon lord

The fact that they made this movie out of order and the Rey Palpatine reveal was the very last part they wrote and set in stone So when they shot this scene they probably still weren't even sure what Palpatine meant when he said "She is not what you think"

How come he said “my plan is for you to kill me and turn evil” and she killed him and didnt turn evil?
