I never had a problem with Rey or Ridley's portrayal of her, but I get the feeling this isn't going to sit well with many fans. They're letting her do the thing everyone expected Luke to be doing.

Rebuilding the Jedi Order. I (Butters) see no reason why we can't just pretend that she's Luke after RotJ if we want to imagine what that would look like though.

Speaking of which , isn't it insane they never had an onscreen reunion between Han, Leia, and Luke? It could have been some of the most epic shit ever and they just pissed it away. Instead they just killed all 3 of them.

That was a major theme of the prequel trilogy, too, to be fair. Nobody said the new Jedi order has to follow all the same rules and methods as the old order.

Unless Rey will be constantly talking to Force ghosts, which might be likely, there isn't even a way for her to know the old rules and methods.

... because that's the word everybody knows to mean "heroic force user" both in-universe and otherwise. One of the most iconic quotes in The Last Jedi was, fittingly:

"I will not be the last Jedi."

So... why would anyone want to change the name instead of just changing some of the rules and methods? You don't rename a sport after making a rule change, do you?

Football in the 1920s is almost entirely different from football today. Tons of safety regulations, penalties, technicalities, etc. have been added or removed to adapt to modern sensibilities.

Point being, there's no need to change the name if the overall concept is still the same.

One of the late shots in TLJ showed them in the Millennium Falcon. She'd taken them before Yoda burned the tree. They were also visible in a shot in TROS.

"That temple contained nothing the girl Rey did not already possess"

Then we see her cramming them into a compartment on the Falcon at the end of the film

and then in IX she's reading them in her little hidey hole on the Resistance planet.

Don't recall that at all. I was kinda looking forward to an entirely new Jedi Order with a more grey way of doing things. Really hope that still will be the case

I hate to be that guy

Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy (Urdu: ; born 12 November 1978) is a Canadian journalist, filmmaker and activist known for her work in films that highlight the inequality for women

This is all great and all, but I have to wonder how her personal feelings will seep into this movie and what the reactions will be.

Is it just gonna be men are evil, women will make the Force perfect? Lot of hate on men past few years.

It was during The Last Jedi, not RoS, but don't forget what Yoda said after doing that: "that library contains nothing that the girl Rey does not already possess."

It's supposed to be taken as "She has the qualities needed to create a new Jedi order," but true to Yoda's nature, he's also literally saying that she took the books with her.

You can actually see them in a compartment of the Millennium Falcon during the ending scene, but they're easy to miss:

Look at the drawer at about 0:24 in that video.

I hope her personal feelings sink very deep into it

A woman whose (Academy Award winning) work has dealt with the struggles women have faced making a film about the sole remaining female Jedi trying to set things right seems like a good match up lol

Yeah the last few years have certainly been very hard for men in particular lol

Sadly gray jedi or its philosaphy are not a thing. You're either a pure light or dark side one. Any prolonged exposure at least towards either will result in corruption absolutely.

Dunno what this would mean for any potential KOTOR style game in the the future.

I mean grey jedi weren't really a thing in KotOR either

Jolee had a bit of it but his "philosophy" stemmed more from disillusionment with the Jedi Order than balancing the light and dark

Kreia is also certainly not grey

I meant more so from a gameplay perspective. As from now on you're essentially locked into either the light or dark side ability trees.

Also narrative wise your character will only be able to act and respond in correspondence to one or the other. So you can't be righteous and kind at times or cruel and heartless at others.

Also dark aide users can only wield red sabers, so no variety there either probably.
