What do you guys think the title means?
It could have a meaning for either Luke's or Rey's future.

Also, where is the trailer for the upcoming movie? Based on the last movie, the trailer is already pretty late.

The word Jedi is also plural, so it means both Luke and Rey not just one or the other.

When will somebody's hand get cut off?

It means Luke and Rey have a baby and Luke gets killed and Rey dies birthing it

I thought Episode IV was The Last Jedi

True, I should have rephrased that I guess.

pls

soon, young padawan

Im so excited I might leia egg

too soon? ok I wont Carrie on

I AM PSYCHEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
- Only like 11 months to go :(
Luke will probably die in the movie, if not early in the last movie. RIP. I hope they give him some awesome fight scenes etc, to show how powerful he has become.

I love Star Wars. Super excited to see where they go with the series next. Might finished my Rey costume and give it to my friend to wear.

I feel like Luke will die hence the "Last Jedi"

At the end of "The Force Awakens" Rey and Luke met. I'm going to assume that from there Luke goes back with Rey to the rebel forces, and the last Jedi fight against the empire again

The Last Order*

I am ashamed

I'm actually pretty keen for this movie! Still pretty sad over Carrie Fisher dying though, I hope they don't rewrite too much of the story for IV though but I feel like they were probably going to be doing a story arc for Kylo Renn and her which I doubt they'd of covered much of in the next movie :/

they finished filming all of her scenes for this movie before she died so that's good

Yeah, that's good. Knowing the way the story progresses in the past films though I feel like Episode IX is going to be hard to produce without it feeling somewhat odd. I feel like Princess Leia was to play a bigger part in the upcoming movies. I sorta wish they'd kept open minded about a CGI appearance just to 'tie things up' - even if it was just a brief appearance with her theme.

Yes but in this instance I don't think it will be.

In one of the original films Yoda actually tells Luke that he would be "The last Jedi".
Rey/ Fin (yes fin as there are theories on him) Technically aren't Jedi as they aren't trained and may never be as they may become a new type of jedi under a new name.
Same way Snoke and Kylo Ren aren't Sith, they're an evolution of it or something like that.

Based on that it's pretty safe to say that Luke will not die in the next episode. There are some theories Rey will turn to the dark side, Kylo will turn to the light side sort of thing as Rey wasn't actually the focal point of the force awakens even though you are led to believe she it. (The whole "there has been an awakening" scene took place before Rey had done anything force related and was after the scene where Fin rejects being a stormtrooper and Kylo looks at him. - So people think he's the actual one).



Anyway, my own theory is that there could be something going on in this episode. The new antagonist is being played by the same guy who auditioned and got rejected to play Darth Maul in episode 1. He is apparently playing the main character Ezra from Star Wars Rebels after he has turned to the darkside, which is coincidental considering in the Star Wars Rebels cartoon, Darth Maul has reappeared and is supposedly going to become his master.
-So basically the guy who auditioned to play maul is now playing the apprentice of maul.
The title colour is also red, and the only time the title has ever been a red coloured title is during 1 Star Wars the Clone Wars cartoon episode and that episode was when you found out that Darth Maul was still alive. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Revenge_(episode)
"This was the first episode in the series where the opening logo is red instead of yellow. The same red opening logo is also seen in the following episode, "Revenge," still featuring Darth Maul and his brother."
Which is why Snoke is potentially Darth Maul which I think could make sense considering he was a fan favourite villain, he is a reoccurring enemy throughout Star Wars the Clone Wars and Star Wars rebels cartoons.

Now i'm going on another theory here based on the theory that Rey is Obiwan kenobis daughter/ grandaughter. IF that's the case... Who was Darth Mauls #1 enemy that he always wanted to have his revenge on?- Obi-wan.

What better way to get revenge than to kill his daughter/ or turn her to the dark side as his new apprentice.

IDK but starwars LOVES their continuity and does a lottt of foreshadowing. As for the cartoon/ film link, they've already included the main ship that the characters in the Star Wars Rebels cartoon live in, in the space battle scene of the Rogue One movie. More foreshadowing/ IDK

Oh god..

just gonna leave this here..

sorry princess

pls no

what has happened to this thread?

I was going to say something along the lines of "He got a lightsaber stuck up his ass!" But I don't believe anyone can best this one...

Wielding a lightsaber does not make Rey a Jedi.


Also, she's the reincarnation of Anakin Skywalker.

I got bored with star wars, sad, I really liked Jar Jar Binks.

Oh god, just look at the names of the dance moves.. xD

"The Force Awakens the Last Jedi" maybe there will be new jedi/s introduced

Or you know, just Luke's paper in the trilogy:

I always thought that Luke would have a larger role in Episode 8. Maybe the title 'The Last Jedi' means reflects that?

It's the last Jedi because he will literally be the last 'Jedi'.

The first 6 starwars movies were about the Jedi and the Sith who are the 2 polar extreme opposites of each other.
The new starwars will focus on the inbetween. Luke probably found out after defeating the sith and still being betrayed that there is no better side and so he will be the last jedi and Rey/ whoever else will something new so neither Jedi or Sith. (same has already happened with Kylo Ren and the first Order, he isn't a Sith and neither is Snoke but has been trained in the light and darkside so he is basically both.)
Doesn't mean there will be no more lightsaber wielding good guys, they just won't explicitly follow the Jedi code or whatever anymore.

I never really thought of it that way. It definitely sounds like an interesting theory they might follow along with. I do remember watching a theory about how Luke was slowly 'turning to the Dark side' throughout Episode V and VI. There was also the temptation for him to join the Darkside in Episode VI and even lashing out at Darth Vader so it would fit pretty well with him experiencing both sides. If they do follow along with a Grey Jedi plot, I think that would be pretty cool - especially with the new set of characters since it hasn't been explored in the movies.

You might be right but as far as I remember, maybe I am wrong but doesn't joining the dark side corrupt you? Like, the force feels stronger in the dark side, it consumes the user and the user has access to abilities that jedis don't. So I don't know, maybe users will always have to decide between one, also heard that grey jedis need extreme focus and balance, therefor their rareness.

I don't think Luke realized that both sides are equivalent in terms of potential evil-ness, rather, he realized that people can change. Anakin made the decision to join the dark side, and he can make the decision to leave it. You aren't "born" into it; it isn't innate. I believe that's the subject out of the entire Star Wars series.

I suppose it's how far to the darkside you've gone. Technically, anyone can be redeemed, take Darth Vader as an example. It wasn't until the very end he redeemed himself. Grey Jedi are typically people who have had experiences with both sides of the force and typically don't align themselves. It's more about them doing what they feel is right and for the good of others where typically their respective 'side' doesn't go out of their way to help. That's why some people considered Qui-Gon Jinn a Grey Jedi since he didn't support the council's decisions as he felt they weren't looking at the bigger picture (Though that didn't turn out too well..)

I do like this approach on Star Wars and it would be pretty cool if they do push forward with this idea. I've seen some interviews and I do recall the actor who plays Kylo Ren, Adam Driver, talking about how they wanted to push the story in a way that makes the Order have some justification for the events that happened in Force Awakens. It would be interesting for Kylo Ren to go through a story arc where he sees what he's done and comes to the realisation of his wrong doing, I'm hoping that's how it plays out - would have really liked for him to have met his mother in the end but... yeah.. :(

In other news, I got the xbox 360 R2D2 version this weekend:

Didn't the empire die?

Not really

That actually looks pretty cool!

Technically they did in Episode VI, the new 'Empire' in The Force Awakens is the First Order. After the rebels succeeded, I'd assume they'd be the New Republic but for some reason they're now known as The Resistance?..

Not always, there are positives and negatives. Sith gain more power faster but Jedi over a long period of time can be just as strong/ stronger.
Look at Count Dooku, he was a Sith but wasn't really corrupt. He more just changed sides because he had a different political view.

He wasn't really 'evil' like the others and didn't even have the sith eyes.

Pretty much. I'm sure the new order has some members from the Empire but the new order isn't the old empire as that was pretty much built on the Emperor who is dead.

But yea you can definitely see the Grey Jedi thing is what Disney is going to do. Before Disney took over grey jedi didn't exist/ weren't acknowledged (at least in anything directed by George Lucas) as he didn't want people to see the possibility of what's in the middle as he just wanted the two sides to be complete opposites of each other.

Recently after Disney bought the rights and rebooted the franchise you can see in the starwars rebels cartoons that out of nowhere they have introduced the inbetween possibility. Asohka has two grey lightsabers, being the first time the official franchise has accepted the existence of Grey Jedi, and in one of the episodes the Kanan character meets a force creature who didn't see the light side and darkside as good or bad, it just depended on how the information was used and that he was neither.
Like I said in a previous post, the new movies use a lot of foresight, and like to show glimpses/ plant seeds of what is to come. They've used and officially stated that they want/will be using parts of the cartoons in the movies.


I'm fairly confident Rey will be getting a doublesided lightsaber, I mean she uses a staff and the staff itself kind of looks like a lightsaber (some people have speculated that it's made of lightsaber parts). Whether it actually is a lightsaber I doubt but could be, but what I think is going to happen is she will turn her staff into one, and use the part of the staff as the lightsaber. I think it'd be pretty cool if going off the grey jedi thing that she's given a white/ grey lightsaber, or at least something new, maybe orange. At this point i'm over seeing blue and green lightsabers.

Both "sith" and Jedi are "force-sensitive", the only thing that defines and contrasts the two is their philosophy on what the Force is and how one should use it.

In the now non-canon EU books Luke becomes a sith temporarily and returns to the light side with a deeper understanding that helps him become a better jedi so it is possible to walk the line but not many characters can do it successfully.

As for powers, Jedi can heal others much more effectively than sith, sith requires further use of bacta tanks and traditional medicine because their philosophy of the force is not compatible with rejuvenation, but the sith have stronger "strength" with the force in that they can move heavier objects and cast force lightning.

The Empire wasn't destroyed at the end of the Return of the Jedi, they only cut the head off the snake. There are/were still Grand Admirals and star destroyers running around and vying for control of imperial forces etc.

I never really understood the resistance thing, it's such a cheesy name imo. They should have, like you said, went with something like the New Republic.

The thing about them crazy skywalkers is theyre known the have temper issues, they want you to believe she's a Skywalker, but Rey is calm, and she used the jedi mind trick, who else can do this? Obi wan Kenobi. Ovo

Totally agree with you, that and if the 'New Republic' are the ones who are governing the galaxy, why are they called 'The Resistance'? Technically the first order should be call that since they're rebelling against 'The Resistance' :P

I think they are known as the resistance because the New Republic had demilitarised themselves after they defeated the empire, so the resistance is basically just the Rebel alliance v2, just resisting the New Order I suppose.

Basically New Republic is the democracy state/ Senate, pretty much how it was in the new trilogy how they commanded the clone army, just they have no clones or any army anymore so they can't do anything to defend themselves.
The resistance is independent to the New Republic as it is commanded by Leia so if it wasn't for them there would be nobody to stop the New Order taking over the New Republic.
And then the New Order is the Empire v2, just more like how the Droid army was in the sense that they were not part of the Republic but wanted to take control. (Whereas the original Empire had complete control over the republic government)

That makes sense, just wish they clarified that a bit more in the films, either that or I wasn't paying much attention :P
