Just another silly elementary school children question.
Why does Snoke look so much like a Shaolin monk with shaved head.
I thought the whole SW ordeal started when GL watched some Japanese Samurai flicks.
So, why did Snoke not look like this:

But, instead, his looks modeled after this:

ANSWER: B/c STAR WARS derives from Jin Yong wuxia where Shaolin monks are a stapple of the characters roster in his later works (ie. HSDS)
