Somehow Palpatine Returned

[vaniellys]

If you ever feel bad about your own writing, remember that this was deemed acceptable for a multi-million dollar film.

[rickblaine]

Imagine a nightmare reality where Disney buys the rights to make a LotR sequel.

“Somehow, Sauron had another ring.”

[waywardastronaut]

That wasn't acting. Isaac just couldn't believe how stupid this movie's script is.

[Dxniell]

When palaptine said "it's returnin' time" and then returned all over them I really felt that

[lordgarmadon]

My dad, a fan of Star Wars since 1977, started laughing insanely when Poe said this.

[jezusghoti]

One of the worst moments in movie history.

I’m genuinely convinced this is Oscar Isaac’s actual reaction to the script. He’s evidently trying to hide the facepalm in his voice.

[danielmartins]

"Dark science, cloning, secrets only the sith knew"

Love how the writers pretend he is explaining something, but he is just giving us random options.

[AF-sbjk]

He literally sighs because of how stupid the script is.

[SW-egkt]

Interestingly enough this was Oscar Isaac actually telling the cast about JJ's script. Little did he know the camera was rolling....

[ossiebowman]

Imagine if Disney somehow got the rights to make another Harry Potter film.

"Somehow, Voldemort had another Horcrux"

[aresef]

Amazing how they digitally erased Oscar Isaac's soul leaving his body. Special effects nowadays, I tell you.

[ghosttrain]

Poor Oscar Isaac tries to sell this line with his little sigh. He sounds like he's disappointed with the bad writing.

[arditeider]

"Wait, do we believe this?"

Unironically my favorite Rose moment now.

[inflationrisk]

Oscar: "I can't do this. It's ridiculous!"
JJ: "How about you go tell the rest of the cast and get their opinions?"
Oscar: "Fine."

*JJ secretly starts the camera*

[TheMToThe]

This is the equivalent if in 2025 everyone was just like "We decoded the intel from Germany and it confirms the worst.. Somehow Hitler returned"

[AimeeRose]

The more I think of this film, the worse it gets.

[giorgialadashvili]

I just love how they barely react to this. A Sith Emperor has apparently cheated death itself and came back with a gigantic fleet like some Space Satan from Hell and they are acting as if though their breakfast got spoiled.

[hailtothevic]

Oscar Isaac is a phenomenal actor. He's got the potential to be one of the greats and even HE can't hide how stupid he feels saying that line!

"Cloning... secrets only the sith knew"
Uh, ever heard of the *CLONE* Wars?
