10 Supposedly Badass Film Moments (That Were Totally Underwhelming)

4. Snoke's Death - The Last Jedi

Who is Snoke? One of the biggest questions every Star Wars fan asked before they walked into screenings of The Last Jedi hoping after they would have gotten some answers. Instead, they walked out with a different question. Who WAS Snoke?

Whilst undoubtedly the biggest moment in a film with its fair share of big moments, Snoke's death, once you had got past the initial shock of it just proved crushingly disappointing, and really served to undermine the entire film in its aftermath.

It should have been the bold new step in a different direction that the filmmakers had initially hoped it might be, but the fact of the matter is that far too many people were invested in who Snoke could have been, and not answering that before killing him in even the briefest of ways was never going to go down well.

If they had only explained who Snoke was earlier on in the film just to give him a brief backstory, and answer even a few of the questions as to how he came to prominence then his death could have been validated, and we could have got a truly awesome moment with Kylo Ren offing his master to take power for himself.
