11 Giant Plot-Holes You Didn’t Notice In 2017’s Biggest Movies
5. Snoke Can't Sense The Moving Lightsaber...For Some Reason - Star Wars: The Last Jedi
It's well established that Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis) is an immensely powerful Force user, to the point that he was even able to create a telepathic link between Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) across vast distances.
So, he was able to perform such a mind-boggling feat yet couldn't sense that Kylo Ren was rotating the lightsaber at his side which ultimately killed him?
You can argue that Snoke's abilities don't extend to accurately reading people's minds, but it's still incredibly difficult to believe that a being so powerful wouldn't have sensed the lightsaber and been more than a little baffled by its movement.
It's a moment fans are going to be debating forever more, but it ultimately feels like Rian Johnson wanted fans to revel in the shock value of the moment rather than keep questioning the finer details. And knowing how Star Wars fans are, what a foolish thought that was.
