The real moral of the story was not to resist the Dark Side, but that viewers should “Just Say No” to drugs, writers say.
“It’s great that we’re seeing Congress take up the severe political issue we’ve dealt with so discreetly in the narrative of Star Wars,” Rian Johnson said. “Kylo killing Snoke actually represents young people rejecting drugs.”
Kylo Ren’s role model is Vader, who was not a smoker. But had smoked before when he was younger.
“Just think had Leia smoked, how would her lungs have held out when she went whizzing out into space?”
Unlike Palpatine who got fried by force lightning, or Vader who got charred on Mustaphar, Snoke was just a smoker. That’s how he got his rich voice. The entire film series is intended to be a long scare-commercial.
