I just want to figure out how much sense does it make to the rest of you that Palpatine has apparently been brought back as the villain of the Abrams Triology. Or hell, did you think there was going to be a chance of Palpatine coming back after TLJ?
It's so absurd to me. In general, the Sequel Trilogy always seemed to kinda undo the ending of the OT, by reigniting that same old Rebels vs. Empire bullshit. Essentially robbing the Rebels of their triumph. But thinking about it, this bit is really is a bit much, isn't it? We couldn't even have the defeat of the Emperor. What's next, will we find out in TROS that Anakin didn't really redeem himself somehow? Well, I guess he didn't, since it seems he totally failed in killing the Emperor. What a loser.
