Your bloody arm’s off. No it isn’t!

Rey to suffer Luke’s fate in Empire Strikes Back, if local rumors on location are to be believed.

Zeroh said that many locals at Pinewood Studios where The Last Jedi was mainly filmed saw > Daisy Ridley wearing green sleeve that covers almost her whole arm.
This is a trick in computer-generated imagery (CGI) that will allow the editing team to make that covered part invisible in the post-production for the film, which would mean that at some point, Rey could lose her arm in Star Wars: Episode 8.

It’s like poetry, it rhymes.

I would prefer Rey got her leg chopped off or her saber destroyed. Finn’s injury in TFA was original for the films and it’s sad that new types of lightsaber injuries might not be crossing over into TLJ.

There is only so many types of ways to destroy a person with a lightsaber without killing them

Finn should be brain dead from that spine cut

How to fix return of the jedi

Kill han solo in empire strikes back(BY DARTH F@CKING VADER) and replace the ewoks with coruscant invasion by the alliance as well as make leia pregnant with hans child whom she names Ben solo

This child will be 2 by return of the jedi

Luke will begin return of the jedi in a more emotionally complex place as he tends to yoda death bed on dagobah…having trained for the past 2 years and ready to train ben (setting up kylo ren).

Why this is better

  1. It gives luke a harder time to forgive vader, as well as the crowd. We cannot forgive kylo for what he did in TFA…imagine if vader stabbed that lightsaber threw hans chest while han said “I know” in front of leia.

  2. Jabba palace is gone and god riddance

  3. A better motivation for luke to kill his father in that moment at the throne room

  4. Sets up a future search for a father figure by Ben solo which leads to snoke

  5. Sets up a better theme of forgiving your enemies for return of the jedi…as Luke and leia forgive their father for killing han as vader dies in the throne room of palpatines lava palace

Star Wars 8 Creates ‘New Rules’ For the Franchise

http://screenrant.com/star-wars-8-rian-johnson-adam-driver/

“Adam Driver says writer and director Rian Johnson has created “new rules” for the franchise in Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi. And in many ways, The Last Jedi is shaping up to be an unintended response to many of the complaints fans and critics had about The Force Awakens, most of which revolved around the overwhelming similarities between its plot and that of A New Hope.”

I really hope they don’t kill off Luke, and they just let him die peacefully in the time jump between IX and whatever other movies they make. If they’re serious about not being repetitive, that’s one way to do it!

Do they not see the birds controlled in the atmosphere of the sky? none holds them up except Allah. Indeed in that are signs for a people who believe. – Quran (16:79)

My biggest fear about this film has now been alleviated, but I hope the new concepts being thrown at us are actually good. Nothing is more disappointing than a concept that could have been something exemplary.

This is what I want from last jedi

Luke is revealed to be very important to the true conflict of the ST but not in a way you think

Think of snoke as a kind of sauron-melkor figure…powerful but not at his full strength. He was awakened by the first order in the beyond when they palpatines scrolls talked about a GOD to the sith empire (the sith empire lasted centuries as oppose to decades). Realizing the suprising longeivity of the sith empire and believing that this dark entity could them.

The dark entity is not something that came out of my ass…it is a FALLEN WHILL. A whill that was cast down from the other realm because of his lust for control. Whereas the original whills were observers and passive…he was more proactive. He also believes in free will and the belief that we can make our own destiny and that the force is a puppet master for both his realm and the mortal realm. He was cast out of the force and was angered…he creates the sith empire and becomes it’s god. Clone wars mentions that the elite The sith sacrificed prisoners for unknown reasons…no one knew why…till now

His empire however was eventually destroyed and replaced with the rule of 2 as he was defeated by the bendu after a war in the force realm…leading to all but the bendu to be destroyed. Locked in the beyond snoke would plan to make a comeback

A comeback that began a conflict with Luke that culminated with him destroying the jedi(creating a cool story of lukes jedi order and the new republic fighting against the imperial remnant and snoke). Kylo turns to the dark side because of his parents neglect, while they both destroy Luke’s temple and convert many of the jedi to the Knights of ren(explaining why kylo is their master, because they are all padawans when they joined). Luke confronts snoke and they have a epic fight of force abilities that culminates with Luke weakening him. Luke realizes that snoke can only remain weakened as long as he lives. So he flees to ach-too for the greater good of the galaxy.

Rey herself merely entered into a cosmic battle between the jedi and space satan as well as Luke reading the whills journal and discovering that light and darkness need to be balanced.

Last jedi ends Luke being killed by rey after luke is defeated easily by a completely rejuvenated snoke…after snoke revealed that luke is responsible for killing her parents who were dark siders who followed snoke. leia sacrifices herself to buy the resistance time to escape to republic space to regroup and join republic forces for a “big offensive” as she uses the force storm, causing her to destroy the ship she is on as well as hux. Rey leaves with Snoke and kylo where she has the “family” she always wanted, rose Finn and Poe are left on the SD crashing onto the planet.

Cut to black

I am deeply suprised that a star wars fan forum does not know what the hell a whill is

Seriously though, I just heard the term thrown around some here and probably looked it up at some point.

I never cared that much because it wasn’t in the movies, but I guess it is now because of RO.

The whills work for 2 reasons

This is a OT concept that is steeped in mysticism that makes the force weirder and more mysterious

They are few things in life better than star wars…one of them is star wars influenced by tolkien
