Just discovered something whilst watching Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix (AGAIN), during the weekend Potter marathon!
It all makes sense now, the mind reading, dark side, everything! He just traded in his wand for a lightsaber...
Severus Snape is Kylo Ren's great great great (etc.) grandfather!
K, so the comparison in looks was made before, that Adam Driver should've portrayed the young Severus.
So, I'm a little late to the comparison, twas a revelation for me, but I am not (feel free to boo and hiss) much of a Star Wars fan. I'm more a Trekky, as I've mentioned before here.

And since the franchise now belongs to Disney, what could be more appropriate than a deceased parent (or in this case, multi greats-grandparent) in the clouds.
