We do not know who is the "Last Jedi". Is it Luke? or is there another.......?
And what about Rey, the young woman we meet in Episode VII? Who are her parents? : ".....Rey, a young woman who shows strong signs of the Force. Her desire to learn the ways of the Jedi forces Luke to make a decision that changes their lives forever." (from an intro to the trailer).

This x100.
It borrows heavily from the original trilogy. And nothing was ever explained.
Lukes now this hopeless mope sucking on the tits of an alien on a remote island. See's the error of his ways, force projects himself, and then dies. I half expected him to raise the X-Wing out of the water and travel to the planet and have a similar send off to Ben Kenobi, but f*ck all, they didn't even give him that courtesy. He just embraces the force and vanishes. Lame. LAME.
Snoke, one of the most mysterious characters introduced, is also killed off in a lame fashion. No backstory given, nothing provided as to whom he is exactly and how he rose to power after Palpatines death. He's just there, then dies.
I don't hate the movie, I enjoyed it actually, but f*ck, these little things mentioned above drive me crazy.

I thought they basically answered your questions above fairly directly in this movie... for a minute I thought you were talking about the last movie. There is a scene near the end where solo's son tells her her parents where "nobody's". I took this at face value (perhaps mistakenly)... I also thought it was pretty clearly fore-shadowed by comments from yoda among others that Rey is the next "good force" person aka jedi. So either Luke is the last Jedi and they abandon the term, which they kinda allude to by burning down the tree, or she is obvs the next jedi. Just my interpretation.

DirtyDishSoap wrote:Honestly, I could take it that Solo was trying to convince her that she came from nothing but she is everything to him. Seeds of doubt and all.
I really would like to know who her parents were. You have this enriched bloodline of Skywalker/Solo's running around, and here's Rey who comes from absolutely nothing. Maybe it'll be explained in the third one...I can let the parent thing slide. I just hope they don't do that stupid fuckin cop-out with the miniclorion count or whatever it is, and Snoke is actually Plagueis who, once again, tried to manipulate the perfect force user. I still think not elaborating on who exactly Snoke is is a huge wasted opportunity. This guy was clearly on another level when compared to Rey and Solo, but they just sweep him under the rug with a "meh". What a joke.

strike wolf wrote:I think we'll see Snoke again. I'm half convinced he manipulated the circumstances of his own death. A line he used about having the right piece in the right place shortly before the conveniently placed lightsaber skewers him combined with his line from the end of Force Awakens where he tells Hugs to bring Kylo Ren to him to complete his training (for those of you unaware, the Sith rule of training involves the Sith apprentice completing his training by killing his master) makes me feel that his death wasn't as sudden as it seemed to us in the movie.
So why let himself die? As he himself pointed out, Ren was stronger in raw power with the force and Rey was Ren's opposite and equal but he bested both of them. Why? I think it's because he was more in tune with the force. Just the dark side instead of the light. So being in tune with it, he could fully expect to not so much die die but come back like Obi Wan and other jedis as a force ghost. Or he could be Darth Plageuis but I think that would undermine Ren's rise as a result of his death. Instead of Ren kills big bad and takes his own place as the new big bad, it's Ren killed big bad but haha not really.
