I don’t see how you can’t see it, really, so it seems like we’re at an impasse on that one. “Okay, I’ll hold,” "skinny guy, kinda pasty, “I can hear you, can you hear me?” and “…about his mother” all scream “2010s snarky humor” to me.
Yes! “2010s snarky humor” is exactly what I was getting at!
Snarky humor is definitely very popular right now, no doubt, but it’s not exclusive to the 2010s by any means. I don’t see how it’s un-Star Wars to have a character who uses snarky humor. He certainly isn’t the first.
