Why do people give a crap about Snoke?

Because he destroyed Luke’s Jedi Academy by seducing Ben Solo to the Dark Side? How is that not interesting?

It sounds a lot like the Prequels. I’m more interested in Kylo doing what Vader couldn’t: killing the master and taking over.

For me it’s not that I want to know who Snoke is and his backstory, so much as why this is a continuation of the Star Wars Saga, rather than a reboot of it, or its own franchise. It’s not a question that TLJ needed to answer (and it wouldn’t necessarily have been a better film if it did), but it is a question I’ve found myself asking as I think about it more.
