Ok, we kinda hijacked that other thread with the Darth Plagueis/Snoke chat so I thought he deserved his own thread!
For quite some time (way before TFA was even released) it's been said that Supreme leader Snoke is actually Darth Plagueis (The Sith master that Emperor Palpatine betrayed and supposedly murdered) who somehow cheated death and has been hiding in the shadows until now. Although there were a bunch of silly rumours about TFA and the plot of the upcoming movies, it seems that this particular one could actually be true!
Clues so far:
The score for "snoke" on the TFA soundtrack is a very similar piece of music to the one that plays in the background of this scene:
