In his absence, the sinister FIRST ORDER has risen from the ashes of the Empire and will not rest until Skywalker, the last Jedi, has been destroyed.

Maybe luke will appear as force gosht or voice, if Rey still need his advice in episode X. But if Hammill retires they could still use McGregor, or CGI yoda and a Frank oz impersonator...

Bespin 8,480 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I just hope they don't play on the unvariable state of the word "Jedi" (One Jedi, two Jedi).

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 You are surprised, Manuel? In all fairness I always figured Leia would survive. But now that Carrie Fisher is dead, they will probably kill of Leia in some way. Both Luke and Han deserted Leia, and their duty in a way. Han went back to being a smuggler instead of trying to get his son back. Luke ran after Kylo turned on him. Both deserve deaths from a purely dramatic point of view. Though Luke's will be redemptive in nature. Lia never stopped being part of the rebellion, even though it's now called The Resistance. And she never gave up hope on her son. She doesnt deserve death. It's a pity Fisher died. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Plural sith) ROTJ works to some extent, since it's only luke, but since it means a new jedi order will return with him, plural goes better with the ROTS title. 2 minutes ago, Stefancos said: You are surprised, Manuel?

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Yoda died of old age, suddenly. Without there being any indication. Was that to justify the films title and make Luke's becoming a real "return" of the Jedi, or was it a commentary on the sudden fragility that comes with old age and the inevitability of death? 2 minutes ago, Luke Skywalker said: I'm just sad that i will not see on screen the interesting period between ROTJ and TFA. You probably will, just not for a couple of years. The rise of Snoke and the First Order is a potential story gold mine for Lucasfilm. But they won't make films about it when their new trilogy is still in active production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Isnt Star Wars more than a series of films to you die hard fans? As for the title. The Last Jedi sounds like a good one, it certainly indicates this will heavily involve Luke, and it won't be just as Rey's mentor. The title for the next one will probably hint towards Rey as taking over the mantle. Rise Of The Light Side, something like that [edit] My good friend Neil just commented that it's like they are trying to form a sentence. The Force awakens the last Jedi......

Save for his title crawl and some dialogue at Obi-Wan's, Star Wars didn't really explain anything about how the Empire came to be. Or how the Jedi were betrayed. Or how the Emperor gained so much power, or even how the alliance was formed. TFA does basically the exact same thing. And TLJ will probably go into more detail because Luke will be featured heavily in the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
