Does Luke survive Episode 8 ?

I think he will die. If Disney planned for Leia to play the Han/Luke role in Episode 9, that suggests that Luke's role would either be minor or absent. I can't really see Luke just playing a minor role or dying early in the film, so I assume he'll be killed off at the climax of this one.

I know Leia was supposed to have a more pivotal role in 9 but I don't think it was specifically to fill a void Luke filled? Hypothetically both Luke and Leia could've been prominent in 9.

Hopefully Snoke kills him.

I'm expecting either or.

I say He dies, but Who will Kill Him? Kyle or Rey?

I don't think he'll die

He won't die until Episode 9

He better not die. He needs to rebuild the Jedi Order.

If he does, it's gonna feel really weird for the SWU to not have Luke. I mean yeah sure, in the Legacy era he was dead but that was like...hundreds of years after. This though, he's still alive and kicking and given the Force can extend lifespans, I'd imagine he'd be able to still do stuff.

But I'm expecting anything and everything at this point.

He makes it through the whole trilogy.

Or maybe the Jedi Just die with him, like he alluded to in the first trailer.

He already fulfilled his destiny by saving Vader.

He's like Revan post-KotOR. Alive, but his destiny is fulfilled.

Well that line could be that cliche "Oh I'm not gonna teach you, everything is over." Then Luke trains Rey after some cliche soul searching or something.

Palpatine ruled for 20 years. He defeated his enemy the Jedi. The Jedi still have not recovered.

The First Order should have better tech considering its 30 years later.

The First Order should have better tech considering its 30 years later. He failed. His student reacted him and killed him redeeming himself back into the light.

Snoke has Luke in hiding whereas he wasn't fearful at all of confronting the emperor. Snoke is obviously a much bigger deal than Sheev. By the trilogy's conclusion even the most diehard of Sheevites won't be able to deny it. They know it too and fear Snoke.

Snoke was evidently fearful in confronting Sheev, although the opposite seems to be true too.

I expect Snoke. My current thoughts is that Snoke and Sheev were equal as of RotJ, but by the ST I imagine Snoke is supreme.

Yep. Disney isn't going to kill off the Jedi.

Then Luke trains Rey after some cliche soul searching or something. nah, that already happened in the OT when Yoda wouldn't train Luke because he was too old, impatient, reckless like his father etc.. Then after a bit changes his mind and trains him.

And they would never re-use a plot line from the OT in these new films.

I wouldn't mind. Star wars needs something that is totally different than what we've seen before.

Yeah but you know, start with the stormtroopers.

I don't think changing one of the more iconic things of Star Wars for the better of...what like 40 years? Would go over well. Not to say they can't, but that would be a huge pill for people to accept and could backfire real quick.

That we're having this conversation is disgraceful.
