So JEDI in the title is singular. The titles in both Spanish (El Último Jedi) and French (Le Dernier Jedi) indicate one Jedi.

Yea the title is definitely referring to Luke imo. Rey is not a Jedi yet and I don't think she will be one until ep. IX when she completes here training, same as Luke in ep. VI

I think the big surprise of this trilogy is her going dark side. I think IX will be her redemption and switch back.

No evidence. Just a wild arse guess.

The Force Awakens explicitly refers to Luke as the "last Jedi" on more than one occasion.

There's nothing to decipher here - Luke is the last Jedi.

As much as I like TFA, I really hope there aren't any similarities between Empire and The Last Jedi.


People make their jokes about TFA being just like ANH but I liked it and didn't mind the similarities. But if the same thing happens in The Last Jedi then I won't be happy.

This new one needs to be different and take some risks.

To me it just means the last jedi(Luke) to actually be trained as a jedi and officially be considered a jedi. Wasn't the whole story line of TFA to find Luke the last jedi. Now the new story arc will have more join his new temple/order and help to bring back balance to the force.

Yeah, I think it just means this will be Luke's film. And that would be awesome.

Can someone fark the Star Wars logo in different colors? The red really makes it pop. Also want to see the logo with the prequel style Episode VIII logo.

Yoda, on his deathbed, tells Luke in The Return of the Jedi: “Luke, when gone am I, the last of the Jedi will you be".

This will be Luke's movie. He will get a lot of meaningful screen time.

This title is about the weight Luke was carrying for so many years knowing he was the last jedi. We saw glimpses of the toll this burden took on him in TFA but we didn't see the whole story. This movie is going to unravel a good bit of how Luke got to this point and reveal the inner turmoil he is still going thru

From ROTJ:

quote:

Yoda: Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Luke... Luke... do not... do not underestimate the powers of the Emperor or suffer your father's fate you will. Luke, when gone am I... the last of the Jedi will you be. Luke, the Force runs strong in your family. Pass on what you have learned, Luke. There is... another... Sky... walker.


From TFA CRAWL:

quote:

Episode VII THE FORCE AWAKENS Luke Skywalker has vanished. 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. With the support of the REPUBLIC, General Leia Organa leads a brave RESISTANCE. She is desperate to find her brother Luke and gain his help in restoring peace and justice to the galaxy. Leia has sent her most daring pilot on a secret mission to Jakku, where an old ally has discovered a clue to Luke’s whereabouts….


Pretty obvious The Last Jedi means Luke exclusively and this entire trilogy is and was always about him. The red is interesting to me and I bet it has to do with some conflict within Luke

"It is a dark time for the Resistance. Although the Starkiller Base has been destroyed, First Order troops have driven the New Republic forces from their destroyed home system and driven them across the galaxy.

"Evading the dreaded First Order Starfleet, a group of freedom fighters led by Rey Solo Skywalker Kenobi Palpatine Organa has established a new secret base on the remote ice world of Frakku.

"The evil lord Kylo Ren, obsessed with finding young Solo Skywalker Kenobi Palpatine Organa and figuring out just how many mutual relations they have, has dispatched thousands of fanboy probes into the far reaches of the Internet...."

Since this takes place immediately after The Force Awakens:

After years of searching, LUKE SKYWALKER, has been found.

The GALACTIC RESISTANCE, one of the few remnants of the NEW REPUBLIC, achieved a major victory with their successful destruction of STARKILLER BASE. This came at a grave cost, the death of Han Solo, wayward husband of General Organa, and the total loss of the Hosnian System.

Now armed with the location of her brother, General Organa sends Rey, a scavenger from Jakku with emerging potential in the force, to the planet Ach-To to find Luke and bring him home.

Rey, after her duel with Kylo Ren, now comes face to face with Skywalker, the one who can finally give her the answers she so desperately seeks....
