Palpatine is not a shape shifter. he was burned and disfigured by the backlash of his own force lightning while battling Mace Windu
I just got back from the movie. I really liked it, but I felt the first half really moved slowly.....maybe because I was waiting for the big 3 to appear. I was bothered by how fast rey could use her abilities, it kind of throws all of the jedi training out the window from the earlier movies, however, I do think she was trained as a child and the memories were regressed, or erased, and she was slowly starting to remember. sort of like muscle memory. the other gripe I had was that Kylo ren was such a wuss. I mean they buld him up as this dangerous Darth Vader wannabe and he gets his *** handed to him by an untrained, or at least inexperienced girl.
but really I loved it, it was heart breaking to lose Han though, even though I was expecting it. I thought it weird that when they got back to Leia, Chewie just walks right past her with no acknowledgement at all.
I fully expect them to kill off Luke and Leia over the next 2 movies, but I hope that they do not kill of Chewie. Being a Wookie he can live for many years longer than humans, and since it is a costume they can replace Pete Mayhew when he can no longer perform the role(now), and no one would really be able to tell. that way Chewie can continue for any number of movies. I do not in anyway mean by those comments to take away from Mayhew's performance in the role, he is great and does a lot with the fascial expression and eyes, but he already can barely walk because of his knees and really was only in the suit during moments Chewie was not moving.
