(when Yoda is gone). But, Jedi could be plural and it could mean Luke and Rey (IF she becomes a Jedi). Good call on it maybe being plural. It also looks to be a callback to Ep 7 crawl Edited January 24, 2017 by Bliz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Depending on Rey's actual lineage..the question might remain which Skywalker we are talking about. Of course..using Skywalker instead of Luke Skywalker might be on purpose..or just an assumption that the viewers knew who was being referenced.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 So do we hold Luke responsible for the planet that was destroyed by the first order? If he hadn't selfishly vanished he could have fought the first order and not allowed them to grow in strength or build the Starkiller base.

Ludomaniac Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 How exactly did the first order rise to power anyway? You would think the governing body of the galaxy would be keeping close watch on those types of factions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly, that's what they will have to do, something along those lines, but the crawl was there to fill the viewers in on what happened since the last episode, like the old cheesy serial movies. 4 minutes ago, Major Harris said: Gtfo out of star wars thread with politixs SW is all politics... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zazzaro703 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Well it was reported that the title when released in Brazil had Jedi in a masculine singular form meaning Luke is the last Jedi and it's not plural. Could be a mistranslation though. People love to dig too deep into things. My theory is Luke went to seek out the original Jedi temple to get to the bottom of the force. He is looking for the purpose of the force, not the purpose of the Jedi. The Jedi and Sith have been at war with each other for centuries and Luke having his academy wiped out took him over the edge, realizing the current ways are not working and haven't ever worked. The force is supposed to be in balance with the light and the dark, but the Jedi and Sith orders each seek to destroy each other which would put the force out of balance if one side succeeded. So, I think Luke will train Rey, but not in the traditional way Jedis have been taught for thousands (I think thousands) of years. Thus, Luke will be the last Jedi, the known and previous Jedi teachings will die with him. His teachings to Rey will be different and the source of these teaching will be whatever he learns at that original Jedi Temple. I think his teachings will ultimately have her seeking Kylo Ren to work with her, not as a Jedi and not her as a Sith.... but rather they will meet in the middle using both the light and dark side. Peace will finally come to the galaxy and the Skywalker saga will end at the end of episode 9. Luke will die doing something by the end of episode 9. Maybe in this movie, the title was Red for E3 and E6 and in those episodes anakin skywalker died and then Darth Vader died. So maybe Luke dies in episode 8. Not really sure about the red title.

codeorama Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 IMO, the red title is just for the teaser poster. The Opening scroll (at least the title) has already been shown on instagram by the the director and it was the same as always. Yellow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
