But there is no Jedi Order, it was destroyed before Luke was born, he never learned the dogmatic (extremist if you will) views of the "old" Jedi. Luke choked people with the Force, clearly he doesn't follow the old order's code.
"return of the jedi" imho is a lame title, it's too... nice. When I see the title I think "oh, Luke is going to team up with other Jedi who were hiding and they will... return", which simply doesn't happen. As a kid I never understood the title. Luke or Vader/Anakin taking revenge makes for a much more fitting/thrilling title. When I see "Revenge of the Jedi" I think "hoho, Luke is going to kick ass in this one!" and sure as hell you see him force choking his way to the Emperor.
"Return of the Sith" for the first prequel makes a lot of sense as well as the Sith were supposed to be extinct. Maybe we could totally call epIII "The Jedi Bite the Dust" XD
